Stumps and blood splattered, and screams and screams continued. Fighting has become numb, and death has become habitual.

Looking at the raging fire under the castle, the Red Lion Grand Duke Van Bock was silent. The outer city of Lion's Tooth City has completely fallen, and the inner city has also been dilapidated by the fierce attack of the demons. If it hadn't been for the fact that a group of dead soldiers had been seriously injured and killed by a large number of demon masters, including a saint, and a large fire that had been prepared long ago outside the inner city, perhaps the inner city would also be in danger.

"Father!" Little William on the side was full of joy, "Fortunately, you have already arranged, this time you should have wiped out thousands." There was also a demon saint who was also seriously injured. We should be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive, right?"

The Kuma Magister on the side was also optimistic, and he smiled, "My lord, I have finally withdrawn most of the magic crystal cannons to the inner city." Moreover, the magic array in the city is still intact, although the inner city is a little smaller, but the energy consumption is also much smaller. It's just that the magic crystals and magic bricks are consumed too much, but it's enough for more than a month. By then, reinforcements should have arrived, right?"

Van Bock smiled slightly, remembering the news from General Anton - he had launched an attack on the demons and sent reinforcements to Lion's Tooth City. But...... Van Bock always sensed something was wrong, but couldn't say anything. He suddenly asked, "What if the Demon Clan has continuously banned the Curse?" So far, the Demon Race has only launched three forbidden spells, and each time they attacked, the number of Sages was very small, and even today it was the first time that the Demon Sage was seriously injured. Of course, top-notch combat power is indeed precious, but the demons are too conservative, right?

Kuma Magister also smiled, as a close comrade-in-arms who had been side by side for a long time, of course he understood Van Bock's thoughts: "After releasing the forbidden spell, the Holy Mage will be weakened for a month, which is equivalent to being completely abolished, so there is a threat from the Imperial Northern Army, and the demons dare not let go of the forbidden spell." And their approach, at most, is to encircle the point and send reinforcements first, and then attack our Lion's Tooth City. Not to mention that General Anton has been on the battlefield for a long time, he must have thought it through and will definitely be on guard. Let's just say that the encirclement point to send reinforcements, we must first defend Lion's Tooth City, right? As long as we can hold it, no matter how the outside changes, we will be invincible first. ”

Gladio Kuma's reassurance made Van Bock smile as well. He thought about it again and tilted his head: "It should be...... That's right!"

"Father, don't worry!" These days of fighting have also made little William grow up rapidly, and he has also learned to comfort, "Our remaining more than 20,000 Red Lion Knights have not moved yet, plus the elite guards, the number of them has exceeded 30,000." Also, the more than a hundred magic golems......"

Van Bock smiled and touched William's head, with a relieved expression: "It's still for the time being, and it has to be kept in a critical place." Be sure to ...... The most critical place!"

In the inner city of Lion's Tooth City, almost all the men were mobilized, including gray-haired old men and teenagers. They carried earth and stones, and they were constantly reinforcing the inner city walls......

On a hill east of the city of Lion's Tooth was Marshal Joset's tent. At this time, there were only two people in the handsome tent. In addition to Marshal Joset, the other one was actually the Demon Clan's Guide Saint Hammit.

Marshal Joset looked very polite: "Your Excellency, the saint! Again, is the target of this human counterattack the entrance to the passage in the Lakens Mountains?"

Hammit is still dressed in a black robe, but his current god stick level has reached the level of a grandmaster: "It should be so." But Marshal, a word of caution: the Holy Spirit's revelation has become more and more obscure, and since too much has changed, there will be more and more unpredictable things in the future. For example, the matter of the Earl of Dustine had no foreknowledge in advance. Therefore, you must verify in many ways, and you must not be blindly credulous. Also, this time I have eight or nine points to guarantee that the target of the pariahs is definitely not Lion's Tooth City, but somewhere else. As for the specific location, the passage is certainly the most likely, but it could also be somewhere else. ”

In Hammett's recollection, there was also such a counteroffensive in his previous life, which was also commanded by General Anton, and the same sound was to attack the west, and the target was in that passage. Of course, history has changed, and the demons have invaded in advance, so Hammit didn't say anything to death. But Hammett believes that some things are hard to change.

But Hammett's answer was already very satisfying to Marshal Joset. He had already learned through other channels that General Anton's attack was indeed a blow to the west, and the target was the passage. And the reason why I asked Hammett today is nothing more than another affirmation.

Besides, a master duel like that between Marshal Joset and General Anton is often the difference between a secret move. Marshal Joset at least knew that General Anton was attacking the west, and that was enough. Therefore, Marshal Joset's face was much kinder: "Your Excellency, before the expedition, Her Majesty the Empress once spoke of you, saying that you have made great contributions and played a great role in this holy war. Therefore, the first Lion's Tooth City and the surrounding Baili area will become your fiefdom. Ben Shuai is here to congratulate in advance, the future Duke of Hammit!

It's not that she's being deceived, it's that Gilly really thinks so. There are reasons for rewarding Hammette, and there are also reasons for publicity, after all, Hammit is the lowest fierce clan in the demon clan, which proves that Empress Ji Li treats everyone equally and will be rewarded for meritorious service. But the main reason is that Hammett should be sent far away. Because Hammett's predictions are becoming more and more inaccurate, and there are no superiors, he would like such a person who can predict, who knows if he will carry his own private goods in his predictions?

However, Hammit didn't care about this, and when he heard that he would have a title and a territory, he was happy: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Lord Marshal!"

"Haha!" said Marshal Joset, "don't be too busy to be happy, there is still something to trouble Your Excellency." ”

"Hmm, please!"

"This time, the commander will personally lead the main force to deal with the reinforcements of the pariahs. The commander left General Overmars and his troops to you. I also hope that you will move the barbarian king and let his barbarians cooperate in the siege. Everything in the City of Lion's Tooth will be at your disposal. And the honor of conquering this city will be yours. (To be continued.) )
