Section 163 Reunion (I)
Solomon walked the streets of Ansbach, where the business atmosphere was far worse than that of Asturias, both in terms of number and size.
He delayed Maneh for seven or eight days, and after escaping the siege of the Bloody Mercenary Regiment, he took them to the camp of the Bourbons, and demanded a large sum of money and goods from Krausa in his own name and gave them to Mane.
Mane's second step was to develop believers, and he had decided to develop his followers in the direction of order, justice, and revenge, and Solomon assisted him in establishing the initial doctrine centered on it.
And Kraussa is very smart to realize that Manie is a partner who can cooperate, Solomon only needs to set up a line for them, and how the rest develops is up to Mane's own.
After dealing with Mane, Solomon set out again for Ansbach, which was now garrisoned by the Thang Long Knights, the second main force of the Duchy of Saxony.
In the city, he did not find the breath of Agatha, probably because of the large flow of people in the city, and even if there were, it dissipated because of the delay of Mane's affairs for many days.
Solomon thought for a moment and paced to a place in the city, the mercenary agency.
Through his communication with Mane, he also learned more and more about the mercenary culture on this continent, and the mercenary agency is a platform where mercenaries can introduce tasks, and Solomon can post missions here, asking to find Agatha or provide clues about Agatha.
As long as the bounty is rich enough, this kind of quest seems to be risky, and it will definitely be noticed by many people.
However, when he came out of the mercenary agency, Ansbach City was not quite right.
People in the streets are running. They all went home. The vendors on the ground were also hurriedly packing up.
The other end of the street. A group of armored horsemen galloped and shouted for the leader: "General Theresia has an order, from now on the city gates will be closed and no entry and exit will be stopped." ”
Solomon grabbed a vendor who was about to slip away and asked, only to learn that war might be about to break out.
Not long ago, the Duchy of Saxony took advantage of the war between the Holy Lana Empire and the Fenrir Kingdom, and the Knights of the Two-Headed Dragon came out in person and hired two mercenary groups to help. An attack was launched on the imperial city of Trier.
But what I didn't expect was that the Holy Lana Empire had already been waiting for it, and changed to the second-ranked Thunder Knights and the last-ranked Thunder Knights to defend the Fenrir Kingdom, but they sent the most powerful Thunder Light Knights back, and hired the Blood Smoke Mercenary Group, the Vaulting Horse Mercenary Group, and the Dream Mercenary Group to help defend in one go.
In that battle, the Knights of the Two-Headed Dragon suffered a small loss, but the casualties of the Knights were not large, and Ferdinand personally resisted the Black Flash Ozwald of the Holy Lana Empire and covered the withdrawal of the Knights, but the mercenary group with two assists all suffered.
As a result, Solomon had already encountered a part. Magne's mercenary group is one of the mercenary groups hired by the Duchy of Saxony, and during the attack, they encounter the famous bloody mercenary group. As a result, he suffered a crushing defeat and was almost completely destroyed, but fortunately escaped and met Solomon.
And now the tension in Ansbach is because the Holy Lana Empire's counterattack is about to come, and the target is Ansbach.
However, after knowing the reason, Solomon still did not decide to leave, first, he was not sure whether Agatha had left Ansbach, and second, he also wanted to know the outcome of the war by the way, from which he could get a glimpse of the strength of the two great powers of Liguria.
The war soon broke out, and it was the Third Legion of Holy Ranna, the Knights of Thunderfire, and the mercenary group of mercenaries.
Relying on the superiority of troops, the Holy Lana Empire directly launched a siege war.
Ansbach's wall has become a battlefield for slaughter, although the magic civilization of this plane is not developed enough, the guide zhì mages are relatively rare, and there is also a lack of powerful magic, but the force of the warriors is still quite considerable, and the siege battle of the guide zhì seems to be very bloody.
Solomon watched the war and evaluated it, comparing the power of the two knights with that of Asturias.
In the end, it was concluded that even if Asturian did not have firearms, it would be no problem to overwhelm them with their previous combat strength.
Of course, neither of them is the strongest legion in their respective ranks, but with the firebolt, Solomon still has absolute confidence to win, because the firebolt has a huge deadly threat to creatures below the sixth order, and even if it is a sixth-order creature, only the perverts of the Orephines are not afraid.
Therefore, no matter how strong the Thunder Light Knights and the Two-Headed Dragon Knights are, they can only hold on for a little longer.
However, this refers to the premise that there are no Zhenguo-level powerhouses or legendary powerhouses participating in the war, and once there are powerhouses of this level participating in the battle, the war will be changed, because they are not afraid of fire, which is enough to disrupt the enemy camp and cause great damage.
Ansbach was not a legendary powerhouse in the offensive and defensive battles, with Black Glitter Ozwald and Ferdinand the two-headed dragon battling each other.
On the city wall, Tresia looked like a Valkyrie, dressed in golden armor to add to her heroism, holding a shield in her left hand and a spear in her right, constantly going back and forth to several attacked locations, followed closely by a group of women's soldiers, dressed similarly to her, that was her personal guard.
With Teresia's strong force, Holy Rana did not gain any advantage in a frontal siege.
In addition to the Thunder and Fire Knights in this battle, the three mercenary groups of Bloodsmoke, Vaulting Horse, and Fantasy, who had helped the empire successfully defend before, also came.
The Knights of Thunder Fire ranked third in Holy Lana, and Theresia's Knights of the Ascending Dragon ranked second in Saxony, originally the Knights of Thunder Fire would be slightly inferior, but it would be different if there were three more first-class mercenary groups, although the two mercenary groups of Vaulting Horse and Dream were not as good as Bloodsmoke, but they were also within the top twenty mercenary groups, and the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Regiment of Gaorudath was ranked third, I am afraid that even the Knights of Thunder Fire would not dare to say that they could win them.
But although Theresia is a woman, her strength is also quite strong, judging from the battle situation observed by Solomon from a distance, this woman is estimated to have quasi-legendary strength, plus she has the advantage of defense, it is not easy for the Holy Lana Empire to break through the city-
"I'm going to urge Gorudas again, why hasn't he done it, but we've caught fire for him. Ludwig, the head of the Knights of Thunderfire, was a bald man, and he exclaimed angrily.
In the previous siege battle, he personally led a team to attack the city, but unfortunately he still failed to stand firm, and was defeated by Theresia, the team was completely destroyed, and he was forced to jump off the city wall to save his life.
Ludwig was also a high-ranking warrior, about sixteen ranks, and the leaders of the Dream Mercenary Regiment and the Vaulting Mercenary Regiment that accompanied him in his attack were also two high-ranking warriors, and they attacked wildly, wrapping Tresia around the city wall in order to create an opportunity for Gorudas-
"General Theresia is really powerful, so powerful, she deserves to be called one of the top three female generals in the mainland. In the middle of Ansbach, on the highest watchtower of Theresia's General's Palace, Prince Reiter danced and shouted excitedly, holding a single-eyed tube in his hand.
"Agatha, this thing you gave me is such a good thing to see so far. He smiled at Agatha.
"Will General Theresia be able to hold it?" said Agatha with a frown.
"No problem, you must be able to hold it. "If the Empire comes from the Thunder Knights, it will be the real opponent of the Rising Dragon Knights." And as long as you survive these few days, reinforcements will definitely arrive. ”
At this moment, suddenly a loud voice came from the direction of the city gate—
Solomon also heard the loud noise, which was the sound of the suspension bridge being lowered.
The gates of the city were in chaos at this time, the chain bridge was lowered, and a red-haired man with a huge axe rushed into the way.
It was the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Regiment, the red-haired man was Gaorudas, and before the Empire's attack on the Ansbach side, in fact, only the Thunderfire Knights and the other two mercenary regiments were going all out, while the Bloodsmoke Mercenary Regiment was waiting.
This plan was drawn up by Carlos, who had already sent a small team of men dressed as various people to infiltrate the city before the war began, and then took advantage of the fact that Terezia was fully contained, the team suddenly launched a surprise attack on the city gates, opened the city gates and lowered the chain bridge.
And Gao Rudas led the rest of the Bloodsmoke mercenary group to wait for this opportunity, and as soon as the city gate opened, they rushed straight in.
The huge axe with a strong smell of blood swung over, and a frightened citizen parted his head and neck before he could scream.
Gorudas withdrew the axe and stuck out his tongue to lick it on the blade, as if to savor the beauty of it.
The chieftain was so cruel that his men would not be polite, and they did not fight at the gates, but rushed along the road directly into the streets, killing anyone they saw.
Turning a blind eye to the cruelty and robbery of his men, Gorudas turned his head and sneered at his right-hand man, Carlos, "What is our goal now?
"Of course you can, but I have a better idea. Carlos laughed, gesturing in the distance, "That's Theresia's General's Palace, and if we take it, the city's resistance will end sooner." ”
"Then what are you waiting for? Ludwig promised me that after the city was destroyed, we would let us loot it, and the general's palace would not be given to anyone else. With a sharp swing of his axe, Gorudas cut a house in his path in half.
Behind him, the Bloodsmoke mercenaries followed like locusts.
At the gates of Ansbach, Theresia led her guards to retake the gates, while Ludwig led two mercenary groups to attack desperately, turning it into a flesh millstone. (To be continued......)
