Although Mainz sent him to the door and was killed, Solomon did not immediately send someone to demolish the church of Jolawan, where the church still had strength, and it would take some effort to take it down, and he did not know where Cameron was now.

At this time, the intelligence from all sides was gathered, and the fierce fighting in the city showed that the rebels had the upper hand, and the guards were independent and tied up because they did not have the orders and command of Freas.

But Solomon knew that this was still a long way from a real victory, that the Guards could launch a fierce counterattack at any time if they were effectively commanded, that only their own new legions were really capable of fighting in the rebel army, and that the private armies of the nobles were uneven, and that the most troublesome part was also in the matter of command, and that the people were now stunned by a bloody courage to defeat the guards who had no command and low morale, and once the other side came to their senses, the spontaneous battles of the citizens would be like those on the outskirts of the city.

There is a big difference between organized and unorganized, especially in the military.

And it was necessary to achieve victory as much as possible, even if the new legion could defeat the Guards, it would greatly damage the strength of Asturias.

Therefore, the only option is to take advantage of the fact that the Guards are now in a state of stragglers and are stunned, Solomon will capture Perth Palace first, capture Margaret, and force her to abdicate, so as to preserve the strength of the kingdom to the greatest extent.

When Solomon arrived not far from Perth Palace, he happened to see a chase.

The musketeers led by Aung Lev fought and retreated, being forced out of the front gate of Perth Palace by a squad of heavily armoured infantry.

These heavy infantry are the elite of the Guards, and they have the strength of a beginner warrior in themselves, and they can fight in full-body iron armor weighing dozens of kilograms. And there is a strange brown glow on the armor. That's because someone has temporarily attached a sturdy spell to it. No wonder even the musketeers under Angli struggled to meet them.

The musket bullets hit the armor of these men, and they bounced off with the sound of metal striking.

However, the musket took advantage of long-range shooting, and after retreating into the street, the view was wider.

During the pursuit, the sturdy light on the surface of the iron armor weakened after being shot by musket bullets, and finally annihilated.

At this time, the musketeers of the ambush brigade aimed at the small number of hoplites rushing out, and fired a volley under the orders of their respective squad commanders.

After the salvo. The outermost layers of the hoplites that rushed out were riddled with holes, and the armor was tattered under the continuous fire of musket bullets, and streams of blood rushed outward, staining the iron armor red.

The remaining hoplites who did not die blocked a lot of bullets with the blessing of their partners in front, and when they saw that the situation was not good, they hurriedly retreated to Perth Palace.

The musketeers who had just been forced back perked up, shouted and rushed forward with another burst of scattering.

The hoplites were pursued as they retreated, but fortunately the musketeers played mostly separately during the pursuit, and it was not easy to form a salvo as before.

Even so, the Guards still left a few corpses and a dozen wounded.

"It's not easy to attack. "After seeing Solomon. Henley explained to him.

Perth Palace was not meant to be defended, but served as the royal palace of Asturias. At the time of its construction, there were several constant magic arrays under it, including the reinforced magic array, so the Perth Palace is not only beautiful, but also very surprisingly strong on the outside.

This also brought trouble to Angli and their attack on Perth Palace, and they had to attack Perth Palace hard.

However, there was already a Guards brigade in charge of security for a long time, and after the gunfire of St. Quentin, another nearby brigade rushed over to assist in the defense.

The defenders cowered in Perth Palace, forcing Henry to attack.

But the assault was not effective, as the Guards were inferior to the musketeers of Henry, and anyone who entered directly through the gate would face a large number of heavy infantry and their non-commissioned officers.

The musketeers of the new regiment were sharp, with muskets in hand, even elite hoplites in heavy armor had to lie down when they were fired continuously, but they were only slightly selected and trained from ordinary people, and they were flexible and highly aggressive, but in order to ensure their body, they could only wear leather armor at most.

Having them shoot at the hoplites from the outside would give them a clear advantage, but it would be the other way around to storm the gates of Perth Palace, and anyone who broke in would have to face the hoplites and archers inside.

Before Solomon came, Henry had tried many times, either by really attacking or by luring as before.

The Guards had always been brave and brave, and although they had only come to defend the palace, they could not resist being tempted to come out of the building, and then, as Solomon had seen with his own eyes, they were beaten back again after being shot continuously.

"They suffered very few casualties, and there were priests inside. Angli said.

As can be seen from the contact battle just now, the defense of the hoplites is extremely high, and the muskets have to be fired continuously to kill and wound, and the priests in the building are even more difficult to deal with, the priests can apply fortification to the hoplites as they did just now, and the most troublesome thing is that as long as the wounded can return to the building alive, the priests can heal them.

Solomon nodded slightly, the priest inside should have been sent by the Church of Light.

In this case, the capture of Perth Palace could not be done by the musketeers alone, and it was necessary to have the strength to attack the fortification.

However, out of an abundance of caution, Solomon did not go into battle himself, but summoned Chebman and asked him to lead a siege team of former pirates to try.

Chebman led a stormtroop of about three squads, consisting mainly of his former associates and later recruited a handful of handpicks.

The storming team was also heavily armoured and well-armed with battle axes, eager to try it with a tempting bounty.

Chebman himself was dressed in blue armor and held two blood-red short axes, both of which were legendary equipment given to him by Solomon, and were specially prepared for this battle, so that the former pirate king could be strengthened.

The assault seemed to go relatively smoothly at first, and the siege team led by Chebman himself forced their way through the doorway to block the attack of the defenders inside the building, and tried to expand the area, as long as they managed to stay in the spacious hall on the lowest floor of the main building of Perth Palace, so that the musketeers could shoot, and gradually capture the target.

But just as Solomon began to prepare Henley and select a group of better gunners to follow him in, there was a sudden angry shouting and scolding from the attacking team, as if they had encountered a strong enemy.

Then he watched as a small number of attackers fled in panic, and Chebman himself was the last to escape, but the armor of the giant whale on his body was already shattered, and it was barely hanging on him like shards.

More than 300 people entered, but less than 50 escaped, and the attack was frustrated.

From inside, another group of Guards hoplites came out, but this time there were several men dressed as priests, at least two or three of them wearing bishops' robes, and they were armed with priests' rods or maces.

The bishops shouted for the guards to retreat, but the guards did not seem to be obedient, and pursued them for a while, until Chebman turned around and cut several hoplites directly with axes, and then they retreated.

Chebman rushed back, fell down in front of Solomon, and said with a wry smile: "There are many priests in it, and there are some high-ranking priests, and it is really tiring to work with a large group of priests. ”

Henry cautiously directed the musketeers in pursuit, and the bishops countered.

The bishops with the priest's staff began to perform defensive and auxiliary magic, such as High Divine Guardian, Brute Bull, Tenacity, and Akong Shield (a celestial magic that defends against ranged attacks), while the bishops with maces chanted the Celestial Mantra, and the maces in their hands glowed brightly, and the Holy Light Strike, the Thunderbolt Summon, the Arrow of Glory, and the Spear of Light rained down on the musketeer's body one after another.

The bishops repelled the pursuit of the musketeers, and after covering the retreat of the Guards, they also immediately retreated, not stopping, and were quite careful not to give the musketeers a chance to assemble a salvo.

Henry had no choice but to retreat and wait for Solomon's order.

Solomon frowned and pondered, he had already asked about Chebman's battle inside.

At first, the assault team barely managed to hold on to an area, so they sent a message to the Musketeers to prepare to follow.

But then the clerics of the Church of Light appeared, and the mid- and low-level clerics began to bless the auxiliary spells such as the group brute bull technique and the group tenacity technique for the guards who fought in the inner gate of the building, and the high-level priests, such as the bishops I saw just now, directly participated in the battle, attacked them with the truth, and destroyed the siege team in a short time.

If it weren't for the fact that Chebman, the boss, had the affection and friendship to stand in the way and save some of them, I'm afraid even fewer would have come back alive.

The most resentful thing is that the casualties of the Guards are less than those of the siege team, because there are priests' divine healing, as long as it is not like the warrior who was just chopped alive by Chebman, the priests can turn serious injuries into minor injuries, and minor injuries into no injuries.

Solomon was speechless for a while after hearing this, it is difficult to quickly capture the Perth Palace in this way, the priests and the guards inside cooperate with each other, the guards have the help of the priests' restoration magic, and the casualties are very small, and the priests have the guards as shields, and they also have buffer time to restore their own spirit and magic.

He had no choice but to call Leonis and give her instructions.

Five of the Primal Gun shooters who had participated in the execution of the former Cardinal Mainz stepped forward and took aim on their knees.

With a tremble of their hands, a dark green pillar of light shot out of the strangely shaped spear in their hand, and they suddenly became sluggish, as if they would fall asleep at any time, and they couldn't even hold the gun.

But the dark green pillars of light silently hit the outermost wall of Perth Palace.

Silently melting through several large holes, half of the wall behind it vibrated in unison, and the walls reinforced by magic turned into powder.

The dark green pillar of light continued to hit the main building of Perth Palace, and the front of the building melted like a candle, revealing the stunned Guards soldiers and clerics inside. (To be continued......)
