ps: sorry, addicted to ti, lgd come on! dota, bestdota!
Just as the army of Ryan and others retreated towards the capital of the Wesson Nation, Feldorf, the city of the White Tower also declared its fall. This strongest stronghold in the south of the Wesson Nation was once expected to last for enough time. So that Nur can fully improve his defenses and allow the army of Lord Wesson who are stationed at the Black Fire Pass to return to Ferdorf.
In fact, the defenders did their best. They armed the city to the teeth. Three gun battalions and dozens of artillery pieces were enough to withstand most of the enemy's onslaught. The Kurgans immediately came to the conclusion after a tentative attack. , That is, a massive army is needed to conquer this city in a short time.
Tamu Khan cannot tolerate this kind of result. He even wants to race against the clock compared to the empire. Few people know that the reason why Emperor Karl-Franz was unable to withdraw from the war of Hawke for a long time was precisely because of the Tamu Khan. Praying to his beloved father Nur, his beloved son Tamu Khan promised his beloved son, Nurg, and let Varnier, the death blade, the champion of Nurg in the Brass Fortress, sent troops to drag the emperor's army.
But instead, the patience of the fat grandfather Nurgle is also being lost. Nurgle's love and expectations for Tamu Khan are increasing day by day, forcing Tamu Khan to speed up his march.
Facing the strong city defense, Tamu Khan found the Chaos Dwarf. If his covenant with the Chaos Dwarf can't work at this time, what value is this covenant?
"City walls?" The gray prophet Drazhos carefully surveyed the defense of the city, and he laughed mockingly: "How do I feel that this is a pile of sand piled up by a child on the plain? We? Will help you solve all this, but this is because of the covenant, I repeat, this is because of the covenant!"
In this way, the Chaos Dwarf sent a powerful war machine. Dozens of Chaos Dwarf mortars, mortars, lava cannons, and Chaos Hell cannons fired together. Tamu Khan rode a toad dragon soaring in the sky, carrying a huge giant in his hands. The battle axe inspired the morale of the Kurgan army.
The siege began. The war machine made of black armor and brass rumblingly started. Under the colorful sky, the imperial army was breathing in fear. The cannon gunner also activated the siege weapon to resolutely counterattack the enemy. , The whole earth was trembling like an injured animal, and the human body and the cannon body were thrown into the air in the skyrocketing flames. Waves of fear came after another. After gaining the power of the devil, the firepower of the Chaos dwarves was much higher than the cannon of the White Tower City. Soon after the artillery battle, the walls of the entire White Tower City and The towers exploded and collapsed one after another under the attack of the Chaos Dwarf siege weapons, and the defenders were drowned in the fire of hell.
Immediately afterwards, the army of Daoergan's horsemen and the decaying knights of Tamukhan began to charge. They broke into the city along the gaps in the blasted city wall and the shattered city gates. The battle of the cavalry was simple and simple. Cruel, the number of cavalry in the empire could not be compared with the number of kurgan cavalry. They were immediately submerged in the torrent of the Chaos army. Those empire militias had been frightened, and their morale collapsed, they threw down their weapons and turned around. Just fled, the plague ogres and the chaos giants boarded the city wall, smashed the fled musketeers and imperial soldiers alive and swallowed them into their abdomen.
The war soon ended, and the city of the White Tower was eventually burned.
Tam Khan was very satisfied with the victory, and he immediately ordered to continue the march, immediately attacked Ferdorf, and then Nuer.
"Nur! Ludwig's city! It will fall!"
On the third day after the fall of the White Tower City, Ryan and others also retreated to Feldoff.
The gates of Ferdorf opened. The residents here are gradually evacuating. There are not many residents left. The streets are very empty, but under the strict orders of Emilia, supplies are ready in the city. , The exhausted cavalry marched into the city one after another to settle down, but the footsteps of the Chaos Army followed them closely, and was rolling towards Feldoff.
"We can only rest in this city for two days at most, and then we must return to Nur immediately." Ryan got off his horse, then took his wife Su Liya off the horse: "Within five days, the Chaos Army will arrive in Fair. Dove."
"I hope our efforts are useful." Su Liya's face is very tired. The female knight is now a legendary mid-level strength. This strength is temporarily not enough to completely control her divine costume. She felt weak when she landed. , Leaning against her husband's arms and panting gently.
After severely injuring the Chaos Dwarf transport team, Ryan and others launched the Gunterburg ambush and defeated the Chaos Vanguard led by the Chaos Dragon Knight Auerbach-Poison. After this battle, Tamu Khan's marching footsteps Had to slow down, but Ryan's army also reached its limit.
"Our efforts will be useful." Karad was very energetic. After he got off his horse, he glanced at the city dreamily: "At least we have fulfilled our obligations. We have saved thousands of people."
"Ah, it's really enjoyable to play!" Blackheart Leip is also very tired. The mercenary baron is already very embarrassed at this time. There are many gray marks on his bald head, which are sweat, wind and dust, and the sunshine of Wesson collar. The strange shape formed underneath.
The old guards also suffered a great loss this time. The newly formed old guards only had a size of more than 800 men, and there was a gap of more than 700 men from Ryan’s ideal of more than 1,500 men. , More than one hundred old guards fell forever on the land of Wesson.
Without sacrifice, there is no victory. This is one of the most important principles Landuin taught Ryan. He regrets this, but does not regret it.
It was already afternoon when he arrived in Ferdorf, and Ryan arranged for everyone to rest, and he himself and Su Liya entered the castle room in Ferdorf to rest.
It was already night to take a rest. At this time, Ryan and Suria got news that Ogle Hawke, the old Marquis of Wesson, led an army of about five thousand people to Feldoff.
In the castle lobby, Ryan met the Marquis of Ogle Hawke.
The old marquis was very old, his hair was gray, because he hurried back from the black fire pass, his body smelled of sour and sweat, and his eyes were sunken, describing it as withered.
Ryan, Suria, Karad and others came to the castle hall. Ogle Hawke saw them coming in, but did not get up from his seat. He looked tired, just raised his hand and gestured. A younger man came up to greet everyone: "This is my son, Mario Hawk."
"Hello, Lord Lane, Mrs. Suria, Lord Kalad." This is a knight who is about 30 years old in appearance. He has long brown hair and a slightly fat body, but his body is full of muscles. Seeing Ryan and others appear, he straightened up his chest somewhat aggressively, squeezed the long sword around his waist, and greeted Ryan and others without humble or arrogance.
Kalad was a little strange. The Holy Grail knight thought what kind of routine this was. This old marquis did not introduce himself or ask about the battle, but introduced his son?
Turning his head to look at Ryan and Suria, he found that Ryan didn't seem anxious at all. He greeted the old marquis' son Mario very gently, and Suria's gaze at the old marquis became very complicated. It was a look with regret and admiration.
After a little greeting, Ryan said to the old Marquis: "Our blockade has slowed the pace of the Chaos Army, but they are still behind us. For up to five days, the Chaos Army will come under the city of Felldorf. "
"...I understand." Ogle's eyes are already very cloudy, because of the exhaustion of the long journey and lack of sleep, his dark circles are very obvious: "I brought back ten thousand people from the black fire pass, and five more. Thousands of people will stay there for now."
"Didn't you bring them all back?" Ryan held up the wine glass, and he looked at the old marquis: "At this time, you should bring all the people back."
"Yes, I should." Ogle Hawke nodded, but shook his head again: "But I don't."
"..." Ryan narrowed his eyes, and he opened his mouth without saying anything.
There was a strange atmosphere in the castle hall. Both sides seemed to have something to say, but they didn't speak. The old Marquis squinted and didn't know what he was thinking, and Ryan and others were silent.
Why did the old marquis leave five thousand people in the Black Fire Pass? Why should he introduce his son to Ryan first? Why don't both sides speak?
Karad was full of question marks, and he had to give a suspicious look at Pfizman, the commander of the Knights of the Sun. Pfizman just shook his head slightly and did not speak.
After being bored for a while, Kalad had to take the initiative to speak: "Your Excellency Hawke, Feldoff belongs to you. Do you have any plan for the battle?"
"A battle plan?" Calad's words broke the silence in the room, and the old marquis said coldly: "What battle plan can I have? Or, why should I tell you my battle plan? A foreigner?"
"We came from afar to help you!" Anger and incomprehension filled Karad's chest, and he almost stood up: "At least you have to tell us, what shall we do next?"
"...You will retreat tomorrow. Retreat to Noor. This is my battle plan." The old marquis raised his head and stared at Calade: "This is what you want to know, the battle plan, I will tell you now. , Knight of the Holy Grail, are you satisfied?"
"Aren't you retreating to Nur with us?" Ryan said, and he took out a letter.
This letter was written by Emilia. The Queen of the Empire told the old Marquis that Feldorf could not be held. Even though the city was the capital of Wesson, it was still impossible to stop the Chaos Army. In the footsteps, she asked the Marquis of Ogle to return to Nur immediately. Only by returning to Nur and relying on Nur's city defense can this war have a chance of victory.
Ogle took a look at the letter, and he said he knew: "In this way, tomorrow you will cover the last group of refugees to evacuate from Ferdorf, and I will leave last."
"good."
…………I am the dividing line you go first…………
On the second day, Ryan and the others escorted the last group of refugees to retreat after a rest. Thousands of refugees from Ferdorf passed through the Fortress of Ferdorf Bridge. In late autumn, the wide water of the Wessen River was rushing. More than that, due to the chaotic corruption of the upper stream, the river became muddy and frothy.
The refugees looked sad. They passed the bridge slowly. The long line stretched for several kilometers. Ryan and others stood at the top of the bridge, watching the refugees retreat.
"This is the last wave of refugees." Pfizman, the commander of the Flame Sun Knights, reached out and held the sword on his waist and looked in the direction of Nuer: "I guess, Nuer is already crowded."
"They lost everything, but at least they still saved their lives." Ryan nodded, and he looked at the gloomy deep autumn sky: "There are people and land lost, people and land are saved, land and land are lost, people and land are lost, as long as you live, There is hope."
The procession of refugees proceeded very slowly. Ryan and others also waited patiently. From morning until noon, the last group of refugees disappeared at the other end of the Ferdorf Bridge in the direction of Nuer, and then the five thousand people led by Wesson. Many armies, they will go to Nur and establish a new line of defense under the walls of that great city.
"Let's retreat, too." Blackheart Rip came up on his horse. When the mercenary baron saw that the refugees had finally been evacuated, he couldn't wait to say: "Your Excellency Ryan, the refugees are all gone!"
"Yeah." Ryan led more than three thousand troops through the bridge one after another.
The old Marquis of Wesson was cold all the way. He rode on the horse and said to his son: "Mario, you too, give me a gift to Duke Ryan. Tell them that I represent all the Wessons. People, the former leader of Sol, the residents of Ferdorf, and our family of the Marquis of Hawke, thank him for his dedication and help forever."
"Yes!" Ogle's son Mario didn't doubt that he had it. He rushed across the bridge on his horse. He just rushed to Ryan's side, and before he had time to speak, the sound of a heavy cannon suddenly sounded behind him.
"boom!"
The bridge with a history of hundreds of years was completely broken under the power of artillery. The fragments of the bridge fell into the water, submerged in the current of the Wesson River, and splashed into pieces of water.
"Father?" Mario turned around incredulously. He yelled across the rushing water of the Wesson River, "Father! Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy, Mario." The expression on the old marquis's face was still cold, and he closed his eyes in pain: "Say hello to the hostess for me."
Ryan and the others already understood what Ogle was planning to do. Su Liya sighed softly and rode to Ryan's side: "This is his choice."
"No! Father!" Mario ran back and forth at the cliff of the broken bridge in a hurry: "Come here! This is the order of the Countess. You are the Marquis of Wesson, and Noor can't live without you!"
"From today, you are the Marquis of Wesson, Mario." Old Marquis Ogle said coldly at the other end: "Mario, this is the last lesson I will teach you as a father."
"It is the bounden duty of our soldiers to defend our home and country. Ferdorf is the land where I was born and raised. I will never give up this city and this land."
"Tell the Countess, I, Ogle Hawke, will do my duty faithfully and stand up as the last guard for myself, for the Countess, and for the Empire. The future belongs to you, Mario!" The old Marquis sighed lightly. "My son, I am the sunset that will fall, and you will be the morning sun that will rise tomorrow. Ferdorf needs you for the reconstruction, and Noor needs you."
"No..." The old marquis' son could not accept this fact, tears streaming down his cheeks: "No! Father, if so, I would rather die with you!"
"What's your appearance? What's your look?" The old marquis sternly shouted, "Mario, what are your two lines of tears? I'm over 30 years old, and I thought you could be defeated by tears. Chaos!"
The marquis' son was stunned. Looking at his father, he couldn't stop his tears. He could only wipe the tears with his hands desperately. He shouted with the loudest voice in his life: "I understand, father! Wish you victory! May Charlemagne bless you!"
Karad looked at this scene, as if he had seen his own yesterday.
The Great Knight of the Holy Grail of Sanctuary knew that the marquise's son in front of him had really grown up from today.
Just like when I lost Jules.
"May Charlemagne bless you, my son! Go!" Ogle took a deep look at his son at last, then turned around, turned away with his guard, and disappeared on the other side of the bridge.
In this way, three days later, Feldoff ushered in Tamu Khan and his chaotic army, the old Marquis of Wesson, Ogle led the five thousand defenders desperately resisting, until the entire army was killed, he himself died. At the gate of the castle.
The efforts of Ogel and the Feldov garrison bought Nuer the most precious time, and their tenacity also brought great losses to the Chaos army, and the Tamu Khan had to stay in Feldov. , Let his heavy loss army rest, and give the chaos dwarves enough time to repair the war machine.
When he is ready to march again, Noor, one of the greatest cities in the old world, this city belonging to Ludwig the savior, the southern important town of the empire, has made all preparations for this war. The return of Ryan and others brought all the information about the evil war machines of the Chaos Army and the Chaos Wizards, and the Noor War Council formulated a very detailed battle plan for this.
The verdict of fate is coming soon.
