When the commander of the First Legion of the Masodra Empire, Git, arrived at the battlefield, it was already noon the next day, but fortunately, the First Legion had already assembled its troops when the other side began to retreat, ready to deal with changes at any time, so it saved a lot of time to assemble and arrived at this time.

The First and Fourth Legions of the Masodra Empire converged, and hundreds of thousands of troops appeared in front of the Fortress of Therad, although the number of troops was several times that of the St. Weylan Empire in the city, but in the face of this fortified city, they still had little confidence that they could defeat it.

In the makeshift tent, the commander of the First Legion, Git, and the commander of the Fourth Legion, Mites, were discussing tactics, and the current situation was really serious, because it was not just the loss of a fortress, the main problem was the location of this fortress of Serrard.

The Fortress of Therrard, like the Fortress of Neshin on the side of the St. Willan Empire, is in a very important position, and if it is not a military point, there is no need to get a fortress here, is it. The biggest problem now was the loss of this Therrad fortress, and the door to their empire was opened, and both Git and Mites thought of each other's tactics almost at the same time, which was to divide their forces to attack their land.

"At present, it seems that there should indeed be a small number of soldiers in the city, and that part of the soldiers may have entered our territory." Mites had been scouting for some time before Geet's troops arrived, and judging by the number of troops now placed on the city walls, the Second Army on the opposite side should have been divided.

"Soldiers of the opposing side must not be allowed to enter our territory." Git said a little anxiously. Now the problem is very serious, you must know that the southern border of their Masodra Empire can be guarded by the strength of their two legions, and the other legions are in other places, so once the opponent's troops cut into their territory, no troops can stop them, which means that the road is unblocked, then the other party can go straight to the core of the empire.

The other party's burning, killing and plundering in their own territory is secondary, what they are most worried about is that if the other party's troops advance directly towards their capital, the nobles on the other side of the capital may choose to negotiate peace with the other party when they see this situation, those nobles are absolutely greedy for life and afraid of death, if the war burns in front of them, they will definitely choose to consider this aspect of the matter.

The people of the Second Army obviously fought this calculation, once the peace talks on the capital side were successful, they didn't have to fight on their side, and the direct war would be over. They can even imagine the situation of the peace talks, when the time comes, they have been desperately defending the Tedemala region for more than a month, it is estimated that those nobles will be directly ceded to the other party, in order to ask the other party to retreat, then what is their battle for more than a month, and what are the sacrificed soldiers, neither of them can accept such a result, so they must come up with a way.

"Although our current troops are superior, it is still very difficult to attack the fortress of Serrard." Of course, Miters here knows how strong the fortress he is running, even if the other party divides his troops, there are still 4-50,000 troops in the city, and with such a defensive scale, even if he attacks the city day and night, it will not be possible to defeat it in a short time, but he put forward a new idea, "We may try to attack the fortress of Neshinde." ”

Mites's idea is still very good, the Nehind Fortress in the south is also the gateway to the St. Wieland Empire, so they only need to capture that side, and then also enter the hinterland of the St. Wieland Empire, the two sides are equivalent to saying that they are changing homes, so that their nobles are in a hurry, and the nobles of the other party are also in a hurry, which can be regarded as reversing the current situation. And although they are all attacking fortresses, compared to the fortress in front of them, the Nesinde fortress has been burned by themselves, and it is estimated that it should be slightly easier to fight than this fortress.

"Nope." Git thought about it for a while, but still shook his head, "Hegar's people have already gone to Nesinde's side to defend, we are already a step slower, even if we capture Nesinde Fortress in a short time, the other party is still faster than us, if you choose to attack the opponent's territory at this time, the nobles on the capital side will not agree." ”

It's a matter of time difference, although it is said that the two sides can change homes, but if one side changes quickly, of course you can win. As it stands, they are stuck in two fortresses and cannot move for a short time, while the opposing forces are already attacking their territory, and this time difference cannot catch up.

"We don't have a choice at the moment, we have to attack the fortress of Serrad." "I know it's the enemy's plan, but it's a plan, and even if we know it, we still have to do what the other party has arranged." “

"Damn!" Mitus also knew that what Git said was right, their only way now was to capture the fortress of Serrad as soon as possible, and there was no other choice, otherwise the nobles on the other side of the capital would definitely surrender in a hurry, and they would never wait until the enemy army really attacked the capital to react. If they knew that their front-line troops did not even have the intention of returning, and directly turned around and changed homes with the other side, it is estimated that they would immediately make peace with the other side, and if they attacked the Serrard Fortress themselves, they might have to wait to see the results of this battle. In other words, this siege is not mainly for strategic purposes, but to give confidence to the nobles on the capital.

"I'm sorry, but it's all my underestimating ......," Mitters couldn't help but say.

"I didn't expect that mage leader to have such a strategy." Git also said that he also had to pay a little responsibility for this matter. When the opponent's first army retreated, he did not choose to immediately go up and pursue or something, after all, they were the attacked side, and they repelled the enemy's attack and kept the territory, of course, they won. Git was a little timid at the time, and gave up the potentially dangerous option of pursuing when he felt that he had already won, which would lead to the safe evacuation of the First Legion, but he didn't expect it to be the other party's calculations.

"Anyway, we are very passive at the moment, and the only way is to capture the stronghold as soon as possible." Git continued, "Pass my order, start attacking immediately, fight day and night, and be sure to take this place in the shortest possible time. ”

"Report." As he was talking, a soldier outside rushed in and shouted to the two of them: "Commander, it's not good, black smoke is rising from the rear of the Fortress of Serrard, it is the direction of Shularad." ”

When the two of them heard this, they immediately walked out of the door of the tent, looked ahead, and sure enough, they saw black smoke rising from the north side of the fortress of Therrad, and of course they knew what was going on. To the north of the fortress of Therrard is the territory of their Masodra Empire, and the nearest to the fortress is the city of Shuraad, which has now been captured by the other side, and it is obvious that the other party has begun to move towards their hinterland as they thought.

"Start the siege right away." Git also immediately ordered.

With the sound of several horns of attack, the offensive and defensive battle of the Serrard Fortress officially began. The troops on the side of the Masodra Empire attacked very fiercely because they were in a hurry, but the water god who defended in the fortress had also been prepared for a long time and commanded the defensive battle in an orderly manner. I have to say that the supplies in the fortress are still very abundant, and the morale of the soldiers is very good because they have just left the city, but the soldiers of the Maso Della Empire on the opposite side probably know what is going on when they see the black smoke coming from their country, and they begin to become a little impatient. The forces on both sides quickly came together, and there were no advantages or disadvantages to be seen at the moment.

At this time, to the north of the battlefield, near the city of Shuraad, part of the Second Army was clearing the battlefield. The battle here has just ended, and it didn't take much time. Although the city of Shulard was also defended by a small number of soldiers, in the face of an army of 30,000, they could not have any decent resistance, and they did not expect the enemy to kill them.

Although this side is not far from the front line, but the two legions of the empire are in front of them, who would have thought that such a large army could kill from the front, what is the situation, is their legion defeated? The front collapsed? Otherwise, how did the opposing troops get around?

Due to their small numbers and constant suspicions about the defeat of the front, the defending troops had no will to fight at all, and without much effort, the troops of the Second Army occupied the city of Shulairad. After entering the city, they were not polite, and directly began to burn and plunder according to the previous order.

Ye Junwen is currently in this army, of course, he is not the one who leads the troops. The nominal leader of this unit is Beverly, but the water god also said that although Beverly led the team, she also obeyed Ye Junwen's command. This water god has also thought about it, there are many other generals, but I am afraid that they will not listen to Ye Junwen's problems, and Beverly was the first to support Ye Junwen before, so nothing should happen, so he will send Beverly to lead the team.

"Almost, when are we leaving?" In the City Lord's Mansion of Shulaad City, Beverly also asked Ye Junwen next to her. She didn't really like this kind of burning, killing, and plundering, but she also knew that it was a tactical arrangement, and the purpose of informing the front line had been achieved, and in her opinion, she should leave as soon as possible.

"I'm not in a hurry for the time being, I want to talk to you about something personal." Ye Junwen looked at the current situation, and there happened to be no outsiders, so he took this opportunity to talk to Beverly about the marriage between the two.

"Now?" Beverly was stunned for a moment, and probably guessed what kind of private matter Ye Junwen wanted to talk about, but now it was during the war.
