After recovering in the form of a dragon, Elrens quickly rushed into the sky after bidding farewell to Nomia and the others, and suddenly he felt something strange in his legs, and when he looked down, he was surprised to find that Oni was holding his claws, and he was flying in the air with him.

"When did you come up?" asked the dragon, frowning.

Little Lori smiled sweetly at him and said, "I jumped up the moment you left the ground." ”

Elrens said helplessly: "I'd better send you back, lest you get in the way of me when there is danger!"

"What!" Oni hurriedly said: "It's not easy for people to have the opportunity to fight side by side with you alone, how can you go back again?" besides, I won't get in the way of you, and they still have the Minos Guardian Colossus, maybe you still need my help!"

Elrens thought about it and it made sense, it was a waste of time back and forth, in case Betty reached Black Dragon Town first, it would be troublesome. The guardian colossus piloted by little Lori is extremely hard, and even if it can't help the evil dragon, it should be enough to protect itself. In desperation, I had no choice but to go with her......

Perhaps it was due to the darkness and the cover of the dense forest, or perhaps the dragon was too fast and too far from the ground, or maybe the enemy did not go in this direction at all, and Elrens found no trace of the Holy Roman army along the way.

After about half an hour of flying at full speed, Elrens and Oni arrived in Black Dragon Town. The huge town seems a little empty, the long-term population here is not much, nearly one-third of them are the army, and now the main force has gone to Mia Port, which naturally seems to be a lot empty.

When the dragon arrived, he immediately gathered the remaining troops stationed here...... There were only 500 old and weak soldiers, commanded by Paros, the deputy commander of the Templar Order. Elrens looked at this force. I couldn't help frowning. He is not afraid of Betty and the HRE army, and even if he can't win, he can escape. The chances of the other party killing themselves are almost zero.

However, the problem is that Black Dragon Town is quite large, and although it has a strong fence made of giant trees, if Betty divides his troops to attack the city from the south, south, and northwest at the same time, he will not be able to take care of all sides with the pitiful number of troops in his hands. Once you are dragged back, and the enemy forces on the other side take the opportunity to rush in and wreak havoc, then you will be in trouble!

The two of them had an urgent discussion. "We immediately recruited the residents of the town to help defend the city, so that we could immediately increase our troops by thousands. Seeing that we are quite numerous, the other party may give up attacking Black Dragon Town and continue to retreat!"

"It's a good idea. Elrence pondered for a moment and then said, "But in case Betty attacks the city without hesitation." These militias alone will certainly not be able to stop them. ”

Oni smiled and said, "What are you afraid of, isn't there still me and you!"

The evil dragon shook his head with a smile and said: "The so-called capture the thief first captures the king, and when the time comes, I will take the initiative to attack, if I can kill or even capture Betty in front of the battle." Every problem will be solved!"

"What about me?" asked Lori with big eyes, "What should I do?"

"You stay in town. When I am the captain of the firefight, I will go wherever there is danger!"

Ellens smiled and touched her little head. Oni pouted a little unhappy, but she didn't mention it better, and finally had to say: "People are so well-behaved, you have to compensate me well after this battle!"

In the early hours of the morning, when it was about to dawn, the advance of the Holy Roman army reached the outskirts of Black Dragon as expected.

Commanding this vanguard was none other than the HRE general Grauce, who led 5,000 elite knights to Black Dragon Town and was surprised to find a large number of enemy troops on all sides of the fence. This is completely different from the information I know. Grauce did not dare to take matters into his own hands, so he sent troops to surround the town. But for the time being, he did not move. After another half an hour, Betty himself arrived with a large army, and Grauce immediately reported the situation to the marshal. Betty climbed a small hill surrounded by a group of knights, and he frowned at the Black Dragon Town in front of him, the heavily guarded figures of the large group of orc warriors on the fence looming in the early morning mist.

After a moment, Grauc could not help but persuade: "Your Excellency, the enemy seems to have been prepared, and if we continue to attack, I am afraid that we will suffer heavy losses. In the unlikely event that the enemy's reinforcements catch up from behind, I am afraid that not only will we gain nothing, but we will also be completely wiped out! It is better to retreat as soon as the enemy has not caught up, and as long as we can leave Illyria safely, we will have a chance to regroup!"

Betty's face was gloomy, and she shook her head and said: "I was ordered by His Majesty to command an army of 50,000 to attack Illyria with ten times the strength of the army. Coupled with the high forests of the Illyrian Mountains, we will definitely encounter resistance on the way to retreat, and it is difficult to say how many people will return in the end. With such a fiasco, where can you still have the face to see your majesty?!"

"But what can we do now to salvage the defeat?" asked Grauce.

Betty thought for a moment and said: "The only way to do this is to break through Black Dragon Town at any cost and destroy all the enemy's supplies! In order to accomplish this goal, even if our entire army is destroyed, we will not hesitate!"

Grauce opened his mouth to speak, but in the end he did not speak.

Betty patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, the total strength of the enemy is only five thousand, and it is all concentrated in Mia Harbor, and it is impossible to have the strength to defend Black Dragon Town." The army here must have been improvised from among the civilian population, such an army has no combat effectiveness at all, and it cannot be our opponent!"

After listening to the marshal's words, Grauc had no choice but to nod: "I understand, Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will go all out to defeat Black Dragon Town in one fell swoop!"

The HRE army consisted mainly of cavalry, but since cavalry was useless in siege warfare, they had to temporarily leave their mounts and dismount to fight on foot.

The rumbling drums of war sounded, and thousands of warriors came out from all sides, taking heavy and neat steps towards the black dragon to suppress it. Half of these armies were concentrated near the western fence and were personally led by the general Grauce. They formed more than a dozen neat phalanxes, each with five long ladders made of makeshift felling, which were used as climbing fences.

And in front of the west gate in the center, there was a team of knights in heavy armor, they held an extremely heavy and hard giant tree in their arms, and when the order to attack sounded, they immediately rushed forward and smashed the city gate!
