Chapter 252: Lightning March
Although Logaris was reluctant, he also knew that he was no match for Savin at all, and that he could defeat him at any time as long as Savin was willing. After a little thought, Logaris agreed, although he lost his military power, after all, he entered the highest level of Hironis, and he could live a prosperous and wealthy life for the rest of his life, isn't this what he fought for in the first place?
Thinking of this, Logaris's mood gradually brightened, and there was only one regret that he regretted, that is, Sawan still did not regard him as his own, and it was impossible for him to follow Sahain to obtain greater benefits in the future. Now he could see clearly that Sahain's ambition was not just a mere herois, but that he would eventually conquer the continent and become the world's watchful ruler.
Logaris quickly completed the handover of the army and left for the royal capital with his personal guards. At the same time, Hortz also began to negotiate with the king's army, saying that it was a negotiation, but in fact discussing the terms of surrender, in this regard, Marveis and Cecedo really did not have much leverage, and Saween was only a gesture to defeat their army completely.
Savan was not idle, he first ordered the army of Logaris to take over the garrison of the fortress of Oren, and then divided a part of the army to garrison the territory of the former Count of Leblas, and the entire northern frontier was returned to the hands of Hieronis. With this done, Swain met with Main again, and Swain told Main of his idea of marching into Pesanis.
Main was also shocked when he heard this, Savan's audacity was really beyond his expectations, and the reason for Sawen's entry turned out to be the name of the Holy Cult of Light that he had proposed earlier. Main scolded Sawan in his heart: "In this way, it is equivalent to putting the hat of invasion on the head of the church, this guy is really getting more and more treacherous." ”
Sawan also said to Main: "The Master's advice is really clever, and it gives us a legitimate reason to send troops to Pesanis, and I hope that the Master will continue to support our cause, and I believe that this is also what the Magic Guild wants." ”
Main was so angry with Sawan that he couldn't speak, even if he opposed Savan, he would continue to attack Pesanis, not to mention that this matter would indeed be of substantial benefit to the Magic Guild, but it would only damage its reputation.
"Well, of course I'm going to support you as always, I wonder when you're going to attack?" Main asked.
"If we can, we'll leave tomorrow. Sawan said.
Main didn't expect it to be so soon, and asked with some concern: "Are you so relieved about the negotiation here, and are you ready to march so soon?"
"The march is also for negotiations, and as for the preparations, they were done before the war began, and now there is no problem at all. Savin replied confidently.
The next morning, before the sun had risen, an army of more than 10,000 men quietly left the fortress of Oren and headed for Pesanes in the north.
Since Cedo had taken away the main elite troops in the country, Pesanes at this time could be said to be quite empty in the country, except for a few defenders at some important passes and castles, there were hardly any decent troops. During these years, Cesedo maintained his strong rule, and the nobles could only keep no more than a thousand guards, and the rest of the army was under the command of the king.
Because of this, he was able to organize an army of about 50,000 men in a very short period of time, but this also led to a very empty country. Savan saw this point, so he dared to venture into the territory of Pesanis with confidence and boldness, and now the only one who can organize effective resistance is the royal capital of Pesanes-Salem City, as long as the royal capital is taken, Pesanis will basically be taken.
Fort Wag was an important pass on the road to the city of Lysam, and the raid on Savin would have provided logistical support, and the next few passes would be almost undifficult. When Savan and his army arrived at the city of Wagburg, the garrison was terrified. They had already spotted a large group approaching, and the army guarding thought it was Cicedo's army, but when this army approached, they were surprised to find that this army was flying the banner of Herois.
The defenders couldn't decide for a moment whether this was King Malves' army or the army of the so-called rebels...... The officer defending the city stood at the top of the city and asked the army below in a loud voice, "Where are your troops?"
Savin and the others had already discussed the strategy, and it was best to outwit this castle, so if it didn't work, Celia and the Wyvern Fionor would directly attack it.
Savin glanced at the officer beside him, and the officer stepped forward and replied, "We are King Marves's army, and the supplies are tight at the front, so we have been sent to rush food, please let us into the city!"
The officers defending the city were suspicious of this, if the other party was really urging food, why didn't they send someone to inform them in advance, how could they directly send a large group of men and horses, but these people were flying the banner of King Malves, it was really difficult to tell. The officer defending the city thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to tell General Versk." ”
This officer is clever and has made up a non-existent general to test the other party, and if the other party is really Malves's men, he will definitely know that there is no such thing as a general in Fort Fursk.
Sure enough, the person who answered below said in a loud voice: "Okay, you go quickly, we wait here, I happen to have a letter here to give to General Fosk." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, the officer in the city suddenly changed his face, and he shouted to the soldiers: "Hurry up and release the arrows, these are enemy troops!"
As soon as the words came out, the defenders of the city were taken aback, and hurried to get their bows and arrows, ready to shoot at the enemy troops below the city. Sawin and the others in the city were also surprised when they saw that they had exposed their feet, and they didn't know where they had exposed their flaws. Sawan hurriedly shouted, "Retreat, watch out for the bow and arrow!"
As soon as his soldiers heard Savin's order, they immediately turned around and ran, and a large number of arrows immediately followed, and several of them were shot down in an instant when they ran slowly. Sahain, the only one, did not retreat, but jumped on horseback, and in one fell swoop flew into the air and towards the city.
The soldiers defending the city were so shocked that they forgot to shoot arrows, and looked at Savan with wide eyes one by one, it was the first time they had seen people who could fly so big. Savin flew up the wall, drew his sword and slashed at the soldiers, only then did the defenders suddenly come to their senses and hurriedly raise their weapons to meet them.
Where are these ordinary people who are Savan's opponents, they were killed by Sawin in three or five strokes and fled in all directions, and the officer who had seen through the deception before was also cut off by Sawen's sword. Sawin said to himself: "If you want to blame, you are too smart, otherwise you will not lose your life." ”
Sawan scattered the defenders on the walls, then jumped down and jumped behind the gates, ready to open them and let his army enter the city. At this time, the archers on the towers also discovered Savan's intentions, so they turned around and shot Savan, and for a while, countless sharp arrows rained down on Savan.
Sawan could only hurriedly swing his sword and shoot the sharp arrows that came at him, and at the same time retreated towards the hole in the city gate, although these arrows could not hurt Sawin for a while, but they also left him free to open the gate. Just as the archers were holding Savan down, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky and swept over the tower.
The soldiers of the guard involuntarily looked up and saw a dragon hovering above their heads, and on the back of the dragon was a man in full armor.
"Dragons!" exclaimed the soldiers.
As the soldiers shouted, a flame fell from the sky, engulfing the soldiers on a tower in an instant. With the participation of the Wyvern, the archers on the tower ran away in an instant, and no one had the courage to face this monster. Not only did the archers lack courage, but everyone who saw the dragon was so frightened that they hid in bunkers, they were just ordinary people, not legendary dragon slaying warriors.
Sawin smiled bitterly when he saw this, it seems that monsters are more capable of scaring people. Seizing this opportunity, Sahain immediately opened the gate of the castle, and the heavy gate was opened by Savin alone, and as soon as the army outside the city saw the gate open, they shouted in unison and entered the castle, and Wagburg fell.
