Saisi walked down the city wall in a daze, not knowing what kind of madness Wang Yong was smoking, and calling himself over was to say something inexplicable. However, when Sisi returned to his tent, he reacted after a little thought, and then cursed Wang Yong loudly for being shameless, actually using himself who had surrendered to attract his own troops, and strongly protested against Wang Yong's blatant violation of the prisoner of war convention.

Wang Yong snorted at Sisi's protest, and took the lookout glass to look at the enemy scouts who were driven away by Kevin's men, and laughed evilly. That's right, Wang Yong asked Sisi to come over just now, just to let him show his face on the city again, so that the enemy scouts could see that he was still alive, although he occupied a city, but was besieged by the enemy, so that the commander of the enemy army could make up his mind to enter the coastal province as soon as possible.

Commander Newman and his army arrived at the border of the Coastal Province and camped on the spot, and half an hour later, the scouts who had been sent out returned to report that His Royal Highness the Grand Prince was still alive and occupied a city, but was besieged by five thousand local infantry.

Newman asked nervously, "Did you see with your own eyes that His Highness is still alive?"

The scout nodded again and again and said, "Yes sir, I saw His Highness directing the defense on the city wall, and I also saw several wing captains following His Highness. Newman breathed a sigh of relief and waved the scout.

Newman turned to the Legion Commanders and asked, "What do you think?"

The commander of the regiment named Marshall said: "According to the traces of the battle here, as well as the number of corpses burned, Your Highness must have experienced a fierce battle here, so that the elite royal troops also killed more than 5,000 people, that is to say, there should be less than 3,000 people under the command of His Highness, and the long-distance raid and shortage of supplies should be exhausted, otherwise with the strength of the Royal Legion, they will definitely not be besieged by 5,000 enemy troops." I think. We should rush to support His Highness as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and no one knows how long His Highness can hold out. ”

The commander of the legion, named Marcus, objected, saying, "The scouts and scouts who have explored the southwest and west of the Coastal Province have not returned, and I think we should wait until they have returned to make sure that the enemy forces are not ambushed before we enter the Coastal Province." ”

At this time, the Tanmalay newspaper: "Report to the sir, the southwest of the seaside province has released the Tanma report, and no enemy has been found, only an unfinished empty city." ”

Marshall glanced at Marcus and said, "Now don't worry, this seaside province has just begun to be built, and it doesn't have a lot of people, they don't have that many troops at all." And they send people to constantly harass our logistical supply lines. It should be that he wants to hold us back, buy enough time to capture His Highness, and then coerce us to withdraw from the army. So, I think we'd better rush to support Your Highness as soon as possible. ”

Marcus insisted: "The Western scouts haven't come back yet, so I think it's better to wait a little longer, so it's safer." If the enemy has an ambush and cuts off our retreat and supply lines when we enter the coastal province, we will be in danger. ”

Marshall scoffed, "Marcus, I think you're overly cautious." To the west of this place is the Warcraft Forest, which is not a place for Tibetans, and if the enemy is really ambushed there, it is estimated that it will all become food for Warcraft by now. And. Even if there is an enemy ambush, our 50,000 troops are not vegetarians, and as long as they enter the coastal province. We will be able to get in touch with the friendly forces in the Shenlong Pass, and when the time comes, we will be flanked from both sides, and the coastal province will be ours. ”

Marcus was about to retort. Newman interrupted with a wave of his hand, "Don't make any noise, I have decided to set off immediately to support His Royal Highness the Grand Prince as quickly as possible." Marcus, you take two legions to stay here and keep the supply lines open. That's it, let's go. Marcus sighed slightly and ordered to leave, but Marshall was full of pride, and asked for the forward position, planning to make Marcus black after seeing His Highness.

The army marched, and Marshall and another corps commander led his 4,000 heavy infantry to open the way, and under the leadership of the scouts, they went straight to the southwestern acropolis of the coastal province.

Along the way, Marshall was in high spirits, thinking about what kind of reward he would get after rescuing the Great Prince, but he ignored another detail, that is, after the first scouts returned, no other scouts returned.

When Newman had entered the seashore with a large army for some time, Marcus briefly discussed with the other two corps commanders and decided to divide the defense in two directions, north and south, with his 2,000 hoplites in the center.

It was a standard and modest defensive formation, but before the two light infantry corps could dig trenches and other fortifications, they were surrounded by the enemy cavalry who came at the same time, blocking them in the wide ravine at the entrance to the coastal province.

Marcus has a wealth of combat experience, and after learning this shocking news, he quickly adjusted the array, sending the two heavy infantry wings in the play to the forefront of the north and south respectively, intending to use the heavy infantry phalanx to resist the charge of the enemy cavalry.

However, when Marcus and the two legion commanders came to the north of the camp and saw the heavy cavalry with at least five thousand armor and even the war horses wrapped in plate armor and the light cavalry that was constantly converging, Marcus's eyes straightened, not only him, but everyone couldn't believe that there were so many troops in a coastal province, and all of them were cavalry, even the most expensive heavy cavalry.

What made Marcus tremble even more was that the enemy's flanks were lined up in the shape of geese with at least twenty heavy ballistae, arm-thick crossbow arrows and metal arrows that emitted a faint cold light, and Marcus did not think that his 1,000 heavy infantry could withstand it.

Marcus frowned, and seeing that the enemy army had no intention of attacking for the time being, he and the other two corps commanders secretly retreated to their own position to observe the strength of the enemy army in the south, planning to break through to the south with his troops if the enemy army in the south was not strong.

However, when Marcus saw the enemy troops to the south, he was completely dumbfounded. Because the deployment and troop configuration of the enemy army in the south are basically the same as in the north, although there is no heavy cavalry in the south, it is a light cavalry in Yishui, and the three officers at the front of the enemy array are riding huge magical beasts - ironclad rhinoceros, these are not only that, there is also a black wind and thunder beast that is known for its speed, an earth bear known for its defensive power, a forest demon wolf known for its ferocity, and an unknown creature that looks gentle but has a mouth full of sharp teeth.

Marcus swallowed and looked at the two Legion Commanders who were already stunned beside him, not knowing what to do for a while. (To be continued......)
