On the seventh day, the city of Otis had been held out for a whole week under the uninterrupted onslaught of Faustin's army.

On several occasions, the gates were almost captured by the soldiers of the Lion and Eagle Legions, but the Iron Guards, who were always able to arrive in time to support, drove the Faustan soldiers at the head of the city off the walls.

It was evening, and Locke leaned against a corner of the camp and bit down on the black bread in his hand without saying a word.

After a few months, Locke ate this disgusting food that can pick up and smash people again.

With the water in the kettle, struggling to swallow the astringent object in his mouth, Locke picked up the spear that was placed on the ground.

Tonight is their battalion attacking the city again, and unlike before, their battalion is attacking an area of the main city gate of the West Gate tonight.

Although the two sides have been fighting for a full week, Faustin has not yet made any substantial progress.

Although Prince Kensel and the Marquis of Mammon were not in a hurry, pressure from within the country had already come, and the city of Otis could not be taken for a long time, and Faustin was under high international pressure.

For example, the overlord O'Moore Empire, Faustin and Charlot are both small countries around the O'Moore Empire, and if the war drags on like this, the O'Moore Empire will consider mediating.

In the central tent of the combined barracks, a large group of Faustin nobles and generals were discussing something fiercely.

The war order from the royal capital has been sent through the flame today, and another one has arrived.

Prince Kensel did not quarrel with these ministers, but stood aside, holding a teacup in his hand, quietly looking at the battlefield sand table in front of him.

The war sand table made by the magician Faustin himself, in the eyes of outsiders, is completely a miniature version of the actual war situation.

A huge city stands in the center of the sand table, this is the city of Otis.

This miniature version of the city of Otis is deliberately squared around the walls, and if you look closely, you can even see the direction of each arrow tower.

Red flags representing Faustin's side were planted in various positions on the sand table wall, representing the positions that the Forstein soldiers had attacked this week.

It also represents an area where Odyssey City is weak defensively.

While Prince Kensel was thinking quietly, next to him stood an old man in military uniform, the Marquis of Mammon.

Tonight, the Marquis of Mammon left his main war zone and was summoned here by Prince Kensel.

Although the Marquis of Mammon was a little curious about what the prince had called him to do at this time, the Marquis of Mammon did not ask, he believed that Prince Kensel would explain.

There was no hurry, Marquis Mammon also brought a cup of tea and accompanied Prince Kensel to observe the war sand table.

After a long time, Prince Kensel finally spoke up. "If you want to capture the fortified city of Otis City, in addition to the breakthrough of internal forces, only external forces are left to crush them. ”

The Marquis of Mammon agreed with Prince Kencer's words, but he did not answer.

A breakthrough in the internal force means that there is an army that will join them inside and out, which is impossible, and the city of Otis has been run by the royal family of Charlotte for many years.

Although they have more or less received some surrenders from the nobles in the city of Charlotte, they are all nobles who do not have much strength.

To meet the candidates who should cooperate with them, at least a thousand-strong army must be under them, and none of the nobles who have shown favor meet the conditions.

As for the crushing by external forces, let alone the fact that Faustin now has only so many available troops in Charlotte, there is no way to support them at home.

It was the garrison corps of the Marquis of West Asia, which had intermittently replaced the soldiers with new recruits over the years, and the veterans were sent to the front.

Thinking of the Marquis of West Asia, the Marquis of Mammon suddenly thought that this Marquis was leading troops in Charlotte at this time, and the Xiongfeng Legion was still in the north of Charlotte, suppressing bandits.

The Marquis of Marmon seemed to have guessed the prince's intentions.

Prince Kensel didn't hide it either, and said directly, "I plan to let the Marquis of West Asia lead the Heroic Wind Legion to come over and participate in the siege!"

The Marquis of Mammon did not refute the prince's decision, but reminded him, "Your Royal Highness, you must think carefully, the current tone of the Heroic Wind Legion in the surrounding countries is not very good... ”

The Legion of Lions, led by the Marquis of Mammon, has been at odds with the Legion of the Majestic Winds, led by the Marquis of Wood. But these contradictions, after the death of Marquis Wood on the battlefield, all disappeared.

The Marquis of Mammon is not a man with a small belly, and he only has admiration and remembrance of his old friend for the Marquis of Wood, who has died in battle.

Prince Kensel knew what the Marquis of Mammon meant, and if he transferred the Heroic Wind Legion, an army with a bad record of slaughtering cities, to participate in the war, Faustin would inevitably be condemned by the surrounding countries, and in terms of public opinion alone, he would be at a disadvantage.

"So we need to hit the shot!" said Prince Kensel in no uncertain terms.

The Marquis of Mammon knew what Prince Kensel meant, that is, the moment the Heroic Legion appeared, the city of Otis would be destroyed. Only with lightning speed, when the Heroic Wind Legion appeared in front of the spies of various countries, broke through the city of Odis and announced the fall of the Charlotte Kingdom, the Kingdom of Forstan could face the reproaches of the surrounding countries and even from the suzerain.

At that time, the raw rice had already been cooked, and it was useless for others to condemn it, so could it make the Faustan Kingdom vomit out the land it occupied? That was impossible.

"But if you don't take it, the consequences... "Although the Marquis of Mammon is old, because he is old, he lacks the hard work of young people, and he tends to be more stable in his work. He did not explicitly oppose Prince Kensel's proposal, but asked the prince to think through the consequences.

"No, the day the Heroic Legion appears, even if you bite it with your teeth, you will bite down a gate in Otis City for me!" Prince Kensel slammed the teacup in his hand, "Smack!" The sound of the teacup falling to the ground and breaking coincided with the sound made by the prince, giving Marquis Mammon an indomitable momentum.

The nobles who were still discussing in the surrounding tent suddenly stopped their "buzzing" discussion because of the crisp sound of the prince smashing the cup, and looked at Prince Kensell and Marquis Marmmon curiously.

The Marquis of Mammon lowered his head, pondered the pros and cons, and finally raised his head when Prince Kensel and the others were impatient, "I agree with this plan!"

Prince Kensel smiled, although he was the commander-in-chief of the front, but as a junior and young man, Prince Kensell first had to get the support of the Marquis of Mammon before he could fully exert his hands and feet.

In the camp tent, at this time, only a bunch of unknown nobles and generals remained, looking at the old and young pairs.

The night was a fierce siege of the city belonging to Locke, and after a few days of leisure, it was finally their turn to fight a tough battle. With his sturdy armor and sturdy arm shield, Locke was able to fight in this harassing-like siege.

Yes, it's a mix. Locke, who has many years of experience in the army, has already guessed the meaning of the high-level bigwigs, and Angelina sends people over from time to time to pass on a message or something, which causes Locke to be completely playing soy sauce in the battle in the past few days.

At the head of Otis City, Locke had never been up once. Other squadron leaders, such as Monte, a low-ranking squire, had led the soldiers to charge up twice in the past two days, although each time he failed to gain a foothold and was repressed by the counterattack of the Charlots.

Of course, Captain Monte was the only one in the Kaidozi battalion, who led his squadron up a ladder. Locke, as the same low-level squire, didn't, everyone thought that Locke had just broken through not long ago, and his strength was not that much, so he didn't say anything.

Only Monte knew in his heart that if Locke wore his bright yellow equipment, no matter how much he attacked, he probably wouldn't be able to break Locke's defense. That's the armor that can make ordinary people resist a blow from a rolling stone from the city.

Locke's current strength, coupled with his equipment, is now in the entire Kaidoqi camp, I'm afraid only Will Knight can beat him.

What Captain Monte didn't know was that even Knight Will himself could hurt Locke if he didn't use the secret treasure Angelina gave him.

A secret treasure that can resist the full force attack of the peak-level attendants, not to mention him, it is estimated that Baron Kaidozi himself has never heard of it.

After a night of bloody fighting, Locke dragged his tired body and his soldiers out of the battlefield of Otis City.

Unlike the zero casualties at the beginning, each attack of their battalion will be accompanied by a lot of casualties. Their cavalry squadron was no exception, and under the care of the knights who were as strong as Will, their squadron still suffered more than a dozen wounds and a few died.

This is the case with their squadrons, and the casualties of other squadrons are even heavier. Especially with the third squadron as the most, Hans's brow has not been stretched in the past two days.

Not only that, but just the day before yesterday, Baron Kaidozi forbade the act of being injured in the line of fire, unless you have suffered irreparable serious injuries, such as missing arms and legs, it is impossible for the Baron to allow you to retreat due to injuries.

Hans and Kane were glad to have taken Hank down on the first day of the war. One is his own brother, the other is a master, Hans and Kane take great care of Hank.

Only Locke is lukewarm to Hank, perhaps because Locke doesn't like this kind of flamboyant guy from the bottom of his heart.

In addition to the third squadron, which suffered heavy casualties, another squadron also surprised Locke.

The mercenary team, which had zero casualties in the first battle and impressed the Kaidozi battalion and the baron, showed their inadequacy and amateurishness in these days of fighting.

As the war became more and more anxious, the casualties of this mercenary team also increased with the times, and almost every battle would lose nearly ten people, and their attrition meant that those ten people were dead.

These outlaws, who have been hired for many years, have nothing to grow except for a knife and muscles on their side. Most of them didn't even have a decent piece of armor. In the face of fierce siege warfare, this group of mercenaries without protective objects was the fastest to die.

No matter how strong the muscles are, they can't stop a cold arrow shot from the city. Many soldiers of the mercenary squadron died under cold arrows.

The soldiers defending the city in Charlot were not authentic, most of the arrows were quenched with poison, and without the protection of armor, human life was as fragile as a piece of paper.

However, these days, the casualties of the mercenary squadron have dropped quite a bit. There are not a few Faustin soldiers who died on the battlefield, and they are not unlucky, they just pull them out and use them, and no one will say anything about them.

A mercenary who licks his life on the edge of the knife and doesn't care about anything other than money.

Locke was curious about the bearded man in the lead, and had been trying to talk to him, but he didn't have a chance.
