It's a little bit worse in the back, wait a minute......

I'm sorry

――

"Ah, but there's no hurry, who's that, if you pick a few people from the captives and bring them to me, I'll tell them what to do, and give the equipment that the captives have taken to the soldiers and swells in the city, and try to make everyone's armor as perfect as possible. Gather those who are good at using bows and arrows, and mercenaries as well. ”

"Yes, Acting Lord. But those mercenaries ...... They're very, unruly, and, well, that, I'm not the one who. My name, my name is Siydon Minkskoll......

"I have my way. ”

The stiff interruption made the young officer's face slightly pale, but after a brief hesitation, he chose to bow his head obediently.

In front of a powerful lion, a mortal like him would do well to remain humble.

Mighty Lion ...... That's right, no matter how much the person in front of you looks like it's related to the word. However, as a core member of this fortress, the young officer has already had the privilege of seeing how powerful the other party has.

Memories rewind time to the moment before the two hourglasses...... For a moment, the young man named Xiyoton trembled slightly almost subconsciously.

The thrilling pictures of filial piety in front of him are so clear that they seem to have been deeply embedded in the memory, and they will never forget it for the rest of their lives.

The terrifying enemy passed through the heavy defenses in an instant, and the guards, magic shields, and weapons turned into a brilliant lightning in front of them...... In the blink of an eye, it had already taken away the entire fortress among the seven core members. The lives of four people -- without the slightest exaggeration, were such an astonishing moment.

Although the same is to kill with a long sword, but the existence of those guys zài itself. It seems to have been out of the shackles of common sense. When the blades of those men's swords slashed across the necks of four men, and blood gushed with a foul smell, everyone's fingers hadn't even touched the edge of their weapons.

Monster - at that time, the only thing I could think of was this.

Or maybe that's it...... Monster.

Someone once said that the so-called lion is a group of monsters. From the time when man was able to control the power of nature, he was no longer a human being, he was a monster. And the monster is the existence that cannot be judged and measured by common sense...... And if this sentence is correct, then the dutiful guy in the pitch-black robe in front of him should be more of a representative of the lion. A monster within a monster.

Because those monstrous assassins, in the next instant, died at the hands of this man, the self-proclaimed Viscount Vincent, a magician—he stepped out of the aura of teleportation and raised his hand. A crystal clear sphere exploded around the four enemies at the moment when their figures intertwined, and the rain-like crystal fragments exploded in the next instant. Tearing all four enemies to shreds at the same time.

Or because of this power, the remnants of the three nobles. will resolutely, even arbitrarily, hand over the command to the young and worrying mage in front of him.

This is an unreasonable judgment.

Even though the latter had indeed become the highest-ranking person in the fortress at that time, and had a group of lion men, it was obvious that he did not know the lord of the castle, and could not even provide a reliable identification. There's no way to prove a mage's apprentice's badge or anything, although the few national mages in the city can prove it's genuine.

But......

The young officer then shook his head, and threw the thought out of his mind—judging by the current situation, the young lion man's face...... The impressive results were enough to offset all doubts. If it weren't for him, the Assassins would have been able to crush any resistance in the city. That way, the enemy could even easily occupy the fortress, without the need for a crappy traitor disguised as reinforcements.

"Oh, by the way, and, who, wait a minute, you go and gather the soldiers in the city, and I'm going to find about one or two hundred people who are more dexterous and good at wielding swords or daggers. ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Acting Castle...... Named Sheydon Minkscoll, he was the chief of a thousand men in the city, acting lord of the city. The casual order of the Holy Seal made the young officer give up thinking, straighten up and knock his heel with impeccable demeanor, turn around and stride away.

But as soon as his third step landed, someone's voice rang out again.

"Oh, who's that, come back, I ask you, how many priests are there in the city? Let them report in the central hall in a moment. ”

"Yes, Lord Acting Castle...... Alternatively, you can call me Xiyodon, the acting lord of the city. ”

"Oh, who's that, come back...... Also, some soldiers who have learned how to bandage for medical treatment, and in addition, find enough bandages. Gather as much cloth as you can use in the city, and you can use those useless flags and the like, but boil them in boiling water before using them, remember?"

"Well, I'm not the one...... Yes, Lord Acting Castle. ”

"And who's that...... Well, what are you still doing here?"

"Don't you have any other orders?

"You don't think it's enough?"

"No...... However, according to the confessions of the captives, the number of enemies is at least twenty thousand, and the number of lions is at least fifty, of which there are more than ten high-level mages, and tonight or before tomorrow, they will come here, with the existing strength in the city, they may not be able to compete with them, even if you said that the reinforcements from the mage academy will arrive tomorrow, but I am worried ......"

"What are you worried about? Worried that before then, the fortress will be attacked by the other side?" A chuckle came from under the black robe, causing Xiyoton to look up and see a slightly distorted smile on the half of the face that appeared in the shadow of the hood.

"Forty-eight mages. There are nine high-level mages, each with a seven-ring. Three six-ring, five five-ring, two thousand hoplites, three thousand guerrilla and light knights, three thousand hoplites, and the rest are spearmen. They were led by the Grand Master of the Empire, the Marquis of Drake Bunares. Fifty-five years old. He has the title of a prudent walker, a strategist who plans carefully, thinks about victory before he wins, and thinks about defeat first. It's a personal habit to never move lightly, so we have at least one night to prepare for it. ”

Theodon's words faltered.

In this world, there is not much uniformity in the military system. The noble lords in various places set their own rules, and the major legions also have their own systems, and for the sake of secrecy, these formations will even be set very strangely, so even if they are fellow soldiers, they may not necessarily know the formations of other legions. Often, you can only barely judge which army is opposite you by judging the battle flag and capturing prisoners. Not to mention the way the enemy came from and the commander in one bite. Even his character.

The young officer shook his head in disbelief, if it weren't for the unquestionable affirmation in the other party's words, for a moment he would almost suspect that the acting city lord was deceiving himself with a string of lies.

But apparently, the Acting Lord Edward's prediction was not wrong in the slightest.

Time passed in a hurry for a dozen hourglasses...... When a touch of morning light illuminates the horizon in the distance. A knight in armor appeared at the end of the field. Subsequently, more troops appeared behind him. The knight thrust the flagpole in his hand into the soft dirt beneath his feet. A heraldic flag with a bright red background unfurls in the wind.

The golden flowers and shields of the empire fluttered high on the banner.

And behind this banner, surrounded by a hundred knights, is the leader of the imperial army who is on the front line.

General Drake Bunares was thin, with drooping dark brown bags under his sunken eye sockets and a gray head that had left an indelible mark of time on his face, but the huge skeleton still made him look like a lion, and his face had a needle-like beard that was clearly not the result of the razors that the nobles liked to use, but the result of sword shaving. His face is dark, short and bearded in the same style. The sunken eye frames reveal deep tiredness, but inside they show a lot of vitality. It was a look that only those who had experienced a tough battle could have, and the gaze of a falcon was as sharp as that of a falcon as it patrolled the riverbank in the distance.

This first-class marquis of the empire was surrounded by knights, and he pressed the hilt of his sword in his hand, standing upright on horseback like a sharp sword.

Spectacular.

Thousands of people formed a flesh-colored patch in the wilderness, like a wriggling carpet, stumbling and clumsy, even as they scrambled for the first place.

"Cunning bastard. ”

The wriggling flesh of the wilderness made the general's brow furrow, of course he could see through the other party's plan, but he also admitted that there was no way to crack this trick now.

If he is the supreme commander of the empire, no, even if these troops behind him are his personal guards, then he will definitely not hesitate to order...... Turn the group of wastes in front of you, who have no combat effectiveness to speak of, but have caused extreme damage to the morale of the army, and turn them into rotten flesh and blood on the battlefield with crossbow arrows and stones. However, he and his guards were not the only ones here, but those few fat lords would never mind playing with their split tongues in front of His Majesty the Emperor, they didn't have the ability or the energy to deal with such a troublesome aftermath, if they didn't want to talk to those fat guys, he could only endure watching this farce.

When the soldier brought back the message from the enemy's city lord, he didn't pay much attention to it, because the other party's demand, no, that blackmail, sounded simply ridiculous -- a soldier exchanged 200 pounds of grain? 600,000 pounds of grain is enough for 10,000 bushels, which is enough for an army of 10,000 people to eat for half a year! Even the grain he brought with the army could not have so much, and the value of such a batch of grain may have far exceeded the value of the 3,000 local private soldiers themselves.

An astonishing scene that no one had ever seen, a large number of human beings, rushing out of the open gates, no, driving out, almost stunned the general and his staff!

Even the heavily armed demon army probably wouldn't have surprised the general so much, not to mention that the embroidered guys were just staggering and trembling. Unarmed human beings. However, it is amazing that they are unarmed - or the description of promotion.

Defenceless.

A defenseless man, or a man who will make people laugh. Or shouting and scolding, depending on the mood of the observer and so on, but three thousand defenseless men rushed in sight, even if they were nothing more

A soldier limped up to the general, his body hastily draped with a flag, but his face was still flushed with shame,

"He said, because the general you refused to redeem our building with grain. So I had to give us a type of punishment...... At first, they said they were going to behead us, but then they said they had nowhere to bury our bodies, so they just cut us a few times and spared our lives......"

"Cunning bastard. “

There was a neat cut on his wrist, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, but the wound had closed, leaving only a red mark and twisted muscles. However, the hand hung down limply, unable to exert force at all, and the general casually added some strength to it, but the hapless fellow screamed, and the palm of the hand still drooped.

After decades of military service, General Bunares frowned slightly, and he already understood the reason - it was a tendon that had been severed by a sharp blade. Then he hastily sealed the wound with divine magic.

But this seemingly simple treatment is extremely vicious.

Tendon injuries are not the same as skin injuries because tendons contract when they are ruptured, so that the wound heals hastily and the tendon is separated. Ordinary healing or restoration techniques cannot treat this wound, and only higher-level regeneration techniques can be used to attach the ruptured tendon.

However, the level of regeneration is as high as seven rings. This is not something that ordinary chaplains can do.

A priest who can perform the Seven Rings Divine Technique, at least at the level of a bishop of a certain sect stationed in a region, is unlikely to go on an expedition with the army. Well, in fact, even if there were such people on the side of the Empire, how much time would it take for more than 3,000 captives to be healed? At least a hundred high-ranking priests would be able to do it, and such high-ranking priests, even if they looted the entire Cadsop, there would only be about thirty.

Having lost the strength of two hands and one foot, what is the difference between these people and the dead?

Oh, there's a big difference.

When these soldiers died, then they needed a place to bury them, but now that these people have been sent back, it would be impossible for them to abandon them any longer.

However, in this way, the people who had to take care of this group of captives became them. Food and the like are secondary, and the point is that these people have become sick and wounded - a person with weak hands and feet needs at least one or two people to serve, and even if they have to be sent back, they have to use a car instead of making them walk, which not only wastes their food, but also drags down their manpower, especially the logistics staff......

But he must send the gang away, or there may be a stricter problem

He was not stupid, and he could naturally think of the consequences of such an incident - after such an incident, these people must have become the object of ridicule within them, and until their hands and feet are healed, they will not be able to deal with the ridicule of the boring people...... The boring military life is very stressful for some people, quarrels, fights are commonplace, and even fight knives when they are strict. It's not surprising that the guys who are holding their breath are doing anything.

In this way, how big will the blow to morale be?

The old general closed his eyes and did not speak for a long time.

What do they think of themselves, then? Of course, hatred is certain, and no one will value his life more than two hundred pounds of grain, though at some point they do...... These people must not stay here,

"Very strange flag...... This team also has the number of the commander. Bowing his head to ignore the disgusting scene, he commanded briefly.

"This force is not an official Order. General," a young and capable adjutant stepped forward behind the general, "Yes, I have just been transferred here in the month of this year's debate, with a total number of 476o people, and the regimental commander is, the third count of Tuminis. Sixty-four years old, with no battlefield record, and similar weaknesses. ”

The so-called weakness is the same, which means lustful, wealthy, cowardly, incompetent, exactly the same as the average nobleman. There is no record of the battlefield, which means that he has not actually been on the battlefield...... Such guys usually don't have the value of detailed documentation in intelligence.

However, the qiē in front of you does not fit this account.

"Is there still a possible commander?" The general's brow twitched.

A collateral nobleman who has never been on the battlefield, and the title is not high, it is not impossible for such a person to make such a strategy, but obviously the probability is too small. Then it is also possible that the other side has a good staff officer...... General Bunares was confident in his intelligence system, and he had been investigating Tumenis' military power for ten years. Nowadays, although it cannot be said to be exhaustive, it is also detailed and comprehensive enough.

This time, however, the adjutant's answer disappointed him a little.

“...... There are too many possibilities, General, because this legion is recently integrated, and its members are all newly canonized knights. The adjutant's voice was a little helpless. "Although most of them are nobles, there are also selected commoners, and there are mages sent out by the academy, no matter what category it is, there are likely to be some talents.
