With a shout, the ant-dense soldiers attacked the main city of the Free City, and they rushed towards the city, dusty.

Behind the stormtroopers, two massive towers ten meters high were moving in the direction of hundreds of soldiers, also moving towards the city.

Almost as soon as the White Feather Army arrived, Victor ordered an immediate attack.

The reason for this urgency is that there is not much time left for Modo.

If it was just Franklin and his army, Victor was not worried, at least he hadn't paid attention to it until now, although there were casualties under the magic defense tower controlled by the opponent's magic base along the way, but the loss of Cheng Dù's troops was not enough for the White Feather Legion.

The core strength of the White Feather Legion is the 15,000 White Feather Elite, as long as this part of the soldiers is still there, the other soldiers are vassals and cannon fodder.

Among the three major legions, the White Feather Legion is centered on the White Feather Elite, and all of them use this group of forces armed with Wind Spirit White Feather Armor to perform tactics, which is different from the other major legion, the Poseidon Legion.

There are only 50,000 people in the Poseidon Legion, not counting the auxiliaries, but these 50,000 people are responsible for fighting with the entire Sea Clan, and there is no difference between the core elite like the White Feather Legion, and the identity of each warrior level is basically equal, and the unequal is only personal strength, and the strong individual strength will become officers, which looks more similar to the general army structure.

If there is any difference between the Poseidon Legion and ordinary legions, it is that to enter this legion, you must have excellent water nature or talent in this area.

The most basic requirement of the average soldier is to have good water ability, such as being able to dive for a longer time than ordinary people, and the mages accompanying the army must also be good at water magic, because they need to face the sea tribe at sea.

However, this does not mean that the Poseidon Legion is only good at fighting the Sea Clan at sea, and they also have an excellent advantage in the 6th Land, that is, the recovery power is amazing, and the casualties are much less than that of the average legion, because the mages who accompany the army are good at water magic, and the spell of healing minor injuries happens to belong to this category.

Different legions naturally have different core tactics, and the Poseidon Legion is to use its strong recovery power to pull opponents other than the Sea Clan into continuous combat, and then drag down the opponent.

The White Feather Legion is a different way, as it is now, under the orders of Victor, the ordinary soldiers of the legion are preparing to attack the city with various tactics under the cover of the siege tower.

This war must be a decisive one, and what Victor fears is the reaction of Asturias.

According to Viathan's plan, the city must be captured before Asturias arrives in the city, so that the situation can be calmed and the city and the nearby Mithril mines brought under the control of Modo.

Once Asturias reacted quickly and sent troops to arrive, if Mordor had not yet captured the city, then Asturias would have every reason to count the still hugely controversial area under his name, and then it would be almost impossible for Mordor to dominate anything, and even because of the anger of Asturian by his previous actions, he would not get the slightest benefit.

As the giant tower moved, a field in front of the city was trampled to the point that it was not in shape, not only that, but there were also several fields near the place where the White Feather Legion had established their base camp, but they had been destroyed in the operation of building a barracks.

Although the second outer city began to take shape, enclosing a large area of land in the wilderness into the scope of the free city, it was still far from urbanization, so it was actually only a demarcation between the main city and the outer city wall, and there were farmland, small towns and villages in it, which was destroyed in the war.

The charging soldiers were about to rush towards the city, but suddenly slowed down.

It turned out that when they were getting closer and closer to the city, they saw a moat, and the soldiers were forced to slow down.

The giant tower shimmered with ice, and seven or eight mages joined forces, including two intermediate mages, to perform magic together.

The light of magic fell on the moat, and the ice fell, and the moat quickly froze.

On the battlefield, magic, even offensive magic, sometimes doesn't have just one use.

The magic of war requires victory, or help to achieve victory.

The moat in front of the city of freedom is not living water, but a deep ditch dug and filled with water, this is not that Franklin does not want to make the defense of the city a little more satisfied, but the conditions are limited, the water source in the wilderness is limited, with the expansion of the city, the water is to meet the needs of people and animals, so the second outer city was established to abandon the traditional moat, but changed to a magic defense tower remotely controlled by the magic base.

The moat was covered with a thick layer of ice, which was not necessarily enough to carry the weight of a giant tower, but it was absolutely fine for ordinary soldiers to pass through, which greatly saved the time required for the siege, otherwise it would take at least two hours to fill the deep moat, not counting the interference from the enemy.

The soldiers stepped on the ice and rushed across the moat and approached the city walls, some of which set up long ladders against them and began to climb.

Others were ready to dig the roots, but they soon realized that this was in vain, and the walls of the Free City were much thicker than the usual military walls they had encountered, and were made entirely of stone.

If there is enough time, this kind of wall is not impossible to destroy, but it takes time and effort, time is exactly what Victor is doing now, and the Free City will not give them enough opportunities.

Sure enough, with the sound of whizzing arrows, sharp arrows shot down from the top of the city wall, and suddenly fell below.

The soldiers of the White Feather Legion immediately abandoned their plans to dig the city wall and concentrated on climbing the ladder.

Soon, on the ladder of seven or eight erected, Modo's army climbed up like ants and began to try to capture the city, and the soldiers of Liberty City began to put up a resolute resistance under the leadership of their respective officers.

A little farther away, about the edge of the moat, the two huge towers, though they did not dare to step on the ice, feared that they would not be crushed enough to crush them, but they were already close to the city walls, and began to shoot at each other.

The height of the giant tower reaches more than 20 meters, which is higher than the ordinary city wall, and the general non-military city wall is only about seven or eight meters, which will be suppressed by this kind of giant tower in turn. Even the military walls are more than fifteen meters, but they are similar to such towers.

However, the walls of the Free City are specially reinforced and heightened, and the height is similar to that of such a giant tower.

This kind of giant tower can accommodate two archer squads, shooting at each other, because the tower can accommodate more people, on the whole the tower is still a bigger loss, but the tower only plays the role of covering the climb and holding back the tower.

The soldiers climbed up the ladder to the level of the city, but soon the people above stabbed with spears and slashed with long knives, and from time to time the wounded and even corpses fell from above, and at this height, there was basically no chance of survival for the wounded to fall.

On the observation tower erected by the barracks, Victor and a man were watching the battle, accompanied by the adjutant Paul, who was none other than Count Schedermon, the messenger sent by Modor earlier.

"My lord, there seems to be no obvious weakness. It's a little strange where they got so many people, I heard that their strength is only a third of ours at most. Paul frowned.

"Well, it's a bit strange, in the battle at the head of the city, they should be ordinary soldiers, I heard that Franklin also raised some elite warriors with a lot of money, but the number can't be more than our White Feather elite. ”

Paul is still puzzled, according to Modo's intelligence, although Franklin has always attached great importance to military affairs in recent years, but after all, he is only a city lord, so even if he counts the outer city guards who are responsible for security in the outer city, there are only more than 20,000 people in the sky, barely more than a regular legion, but it is definitely impossible to compare with a large legion like the White Feather Legion.

Excluding the elite, the general soldiers of the White Feather Legion came to 40,000 this time, and there were more than 10,000 people in the siege in the first battle, and the follow-up is still keeping up, according to Victor's arrangement, this is a tentative attack, and the troops will be sent to 20,000, but the direction of the attack is to conduct indiscriminate pressure attack tests everywhere in the city.

This can test whether the forces of the Free City are enough to completely defend against the attacks of each place, once the forces of the Free City are not enough to defend each point, it is the best landing point for Victor's attack, and the remaining 20,000 troops, as well as the White Feather Elite, will focus on one place, and the other points will also maintain the current balanced pressure offensive.

This is the main battle, the number of the White Feather Legion is far superior to that of the opponent, and it is completely possible to offset the advantage of Franklin's geographical advantage with numbers.

Now let the two of them a little disappointed, most of the corpses that fell from the city were on the side of Victor, which is not surprising, the defense of the city occupies a certain advantage, the war has just begun, and the last side with fewer troops has the advantage of defending the city, but if the troops are insufficient, the shape of the city may be reversed over time, once the siege army occupies the city, it can expand the results of the battle, so that the backup continues to climb the city until the capture of the city.

To their disappointment, in the first round of the attack, there were no obvious deficiencies in all directions of the current city walls, which meant that the forces of the Free City were sufficient to cope with the climbing siege.

Victor, of course, would not have known that there was a windfall after Franklin temporarily persuaded the merchants of the commotion.

When the merchants were convinced, they feared the consequences of Modo's capture of the city.

Victor's siege came quickly, and no envoys were sent to negotiate the city.

In general warfare, the commander will still carry out some propaganda offensive before attacking the city, either sending people into the city to persuade him to surrender, or finding a few loud voices to shout in front of the city.

This time, it was clean and neat, directly attacking the city, and there was no need to persuade him to surrender.

Victor did this because he didn't want to waste time and had to get ahead of Asturias.

But this made the merchants think carefully and fearfully, mistakenly thinking that once Victor attacked the city, he would mercilessly plunder and even slaughter, so he even saved the sending of envoys.

Concerned for their own safety, the merchants gathered together, discussed and assembled their guards, and then sent a representative to Franklin to ask for permission to take part in the Acropolis.

There are hundreds of merchants in the Free City at any time, so the guards assembled in this way are not a small number, so that there are thousands more people in Pingkong to participate in the defense, and some young people in the city also voluntarily sign up, although these young people are not militarized, only barely a little stronger than ordinary creatures of the zero order, but they still have the strength to pick up stones and heavy logs on the city wall.
