After a few years, Lance became much more mature.

The young knight who had once been so desperate for Onisha was now one of the high-ranking generals of the city of Severa, with a short beard on his lips and a steady move. The years, on its body, have left a deep trace.

After the incident at the Tower of Red Flame, Lance, disheartened, returned to his native country of Ian and inherited the title that originally belonged to him. He has a good talent in his own right, and with many years of experience outside, he was quickly promoted to a high-level realm. With the help of his family, Lance joined the army and gradually climbed to his current position with his excellent performance.

Because this meeting involved military defense, Lance, as the commander of the city defense army, also gained a place. When he saw that the group of officials couldn't come up with an idea back and forth, he had the audacity to speak out.

Fortunately, Grand Duke Ian was not only mediocre, but also timid and afraid of death, Lance said a lot, he only heard the word "delay", and the other party actually said that there was no need to collide head-on with Snowton's main force, which made him instantly interested.

"We'll talk about that tomorrow, you go down first, Viscount Reims, you stay. Grand Duke Ian waved his hand and told all the noisy guys to get out, leaving Lance alone.

"Viscount, how did you delay Snowton?" When there were no more people in the hall, Grand Duke Ian beckoned him and asked in a low voice.

"Your Highness, since the enemy army has chosen Frodo County as the main attack point, it will inevitably be arranged, if we rashly send troops to support, it is difficult to ensure that we will not be ambushed and annihilated," Lance looked around left and right, but did not find a military map in the hall, so he had to spread his palms and gesture, "On the contrary, the Snowton West Route Army led by Ebert. There are only more than 40,000 people, just to contain the garrison of Xilin County, if we mobilize the cavalry troops in the city and merge with the garrison of Xilin County, we can occupy the advantage in terms of strength, and we may not be able to counterattack the Ebert Department. Perhaps they can inflict heavy damage on the enemy army to stall for time, boost morale, and wait for reinforcements from the Holy See headquarters. ”

"Well, that makes sense...... Archduke Ian nodded, of course, don't think he really understands, "makes sense" is just his mantra.

"Then His Highness agreed?" said Lance. He was born and raised in Sri Lanka, and naturally he didn't want the Snowton Iron Rider to be too wreathing.

"Agreed, agreed with what?" said Grand Duke Ian's eyes. "Without an edict from the Holy See, can I mobilize even a single soldier?"

Lance was stunned and speechless. For more than a thousand years, the Church of Light has infiltrated all aspects of the Principality of Ian. Almost every Ian is a believer in the God of Light. In every city, the most powerful person is not the lord of the city. Rather, it is the local bishops of the Holy See. Even the garrisons in various places, Grand Duke Ian could not command them. He, the nominal ruler, is only in name.

"Forget it, you go down," Grand Duke Ian leaned back and waved his hand in order, "That's what you said." I will report it to the archbishop, and whether he promised or not is unknown. ”

Lance saluted reluctantly and turned to exit the hall. Deep down, he faintly began to doubt. The Holy See has long been prepared to sacrifice the Northwest Theater, but what is the reason for this?

The Battle of Frodo is one of the well-known battles in the "War of the Kings".

It is famous not because of how tragic it is, or how valuable it is, but because it marks the beginning of some special forces to intervene in traditional wars and make the already chaotic continental pattern even more chaotic.

In the first three days of the battle, without dispatching dragon knights and legendary mages, Snowton's southern expedition did not make much progress. Brotta, the main general of Frodo City, is quite old and serious, and after receiving the order of the Holy See headquarters to defend it, he does not seek merit, but seeks no fault, relying on a perfect defense system, he simply withstood Snowton's fierce offensive.

In particular, the catapults on the corner towers, as well as the bed crossbows on the city walls, are condescending, and the arrows are like rain. Even the armor of a heavily armed warrior is as brittle as tissue paper in front of a two-meter-long steel arrow. And when the boulder, which weighed thousands of pounds, fell with a roar, even the legendary warriors had to dodge.

In three days, 2,000 were killed and many were damaged, but the city of Frodo still stands. Although King Nacini had been mentally prepared, when he saw this situation, his face was not good, and he couldn't see where to go. But despite this, he still let Davide stay put, and even Cat Roman's retreat, not allowing him to use his legendary strength to forcibly attack the city.

The reason is very simple, if even a small city of Frodo is captured, how can it be said to dominate the continent in the north and south. Whether it is Severa or Ranken, they are ten times stronger than Frodo, a hundred times stronger. And if the Snowton army, which is only good at plain battles, gradually become familiar with the atmosphere of siege warfare, it is necessary to learn experience and lessons from blood and fire.

Of course, this lively experience class only lasted for three days. King Nacini wanted them to adapt to the rhythm of the city's attack and defense, not to die in vain. After several days of repeated attacks, when the defenders were exhausted, Snowdon's southern expedition launched the final blow.

On 2 August, the fighting was unprecedentedly fierce.

In the confrontation of catapults, the Second Army of the Southern Expeditionary Army went to the city under the rain of arrows and set up more than a dozen siege ladders. The "Horizontal Knife Battalion" followed, and after paying heavy casualties, Shun Lì ascended to the top of the city. Cartroman's skills were finally able to show his skills, he swept up the city wall, led his elite, and opened a gap in the city wall more than ten meters wide.

The combat effectiveness of the legendary warrior is exposed, and no one is one of them. For a time, there was a lot of noise in the city of Frodo, and the defender of the city, seeing that the situation was not good, ordered that there should be no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, and turn the catapults and bed crossbows on the corner towers on both sides to carry out indiscriminate bombardment.

It was also at this time that Davide harnessed the dragon "Calamity" and raided the left corner tower. Blazing dragon breath swept by, and patches of fire and smoke rose up. Catapults and bed crossbows made of hardwood and pig iron were destroyed in an instant. The red dragon's dragon breath carried a deadly high temperature, and there was a pungent smell of burnt paste above the corner tower.

At the same time, a bright starlight streaked across the sky and fell straight down on the right corner tower. "Star Caller" Biranoo, in the barracks a few miles away, chanted loudly and activated the area damage spell, "Star Fall".

The light was clear, the towering corner tower suddenly trembled, and the top few meters were shocked into powder by the mighty power that fell from the sky.
