Beta nodded slightly to the others, then asked, "How's it going?" ”
"It's going to hold on." Although it was okay to say it, Alice's face was not very good-looking: "We have a total of more than 8,000 troops, but about 2,000 soldiers have lost their ability to fight. ”
That's why Beta saw a lot of seriously wounded people at the barracks gates.
"Can I go up to the wall and have a look?" Beta asked. Here Alice is the commander, if he rushes up to the city wall, will he be stopped and not said, which is disrespectful to Alice.
"I'll take you up and explain it to you by the way."
In this way, Alice took Beta to the city wall.
Almost all of the troops in the northern pass come from Tonggu City, and after two years of development, most of the people in Tonggu City are already believers in the Wealth God Sect. When Beta first entered the barracks, few people recognized him because most of the soldiers he encountered were wounded soldiers.
But the city wall was full of shrewd and vigilant men, so as soon as Beta arrived on the city wall, many believers recognized him.
A large group of soldiers bowed in front of him, and Beta waved as he went. If it weren't for the fact that he was on the battlefield right now, Beta believed, many would have fallen to their knees.
As the Pope, Beta's status in the Wealth God Cult is second only to Workin, and because of the miracles some time ago, Beta's prestige in the sect has a mystical aura bonus, even shallow believers have enough awe for Beta, not to mention those true believers and fanatics.
Alice didn't find it strange or have any other thoughts.
The attraction of religion, Alice is very clear, was canonized as a knight by Beta, became a professional, and went on adventures with Kyle and Beta, experienced a lot of things, and was invisibly influenced by them, in fact, in essence, Alice is also a shallow believer in the Wealth God Cult.
Therefore, Alice is not averse to her own army and has the same beliefs as herself.
In addition, Alice could feel that after the beta reached the city wall, the morale of the army had increased significantly.
Even the Pope is on the front line, which is an inspiring act for the grassroots soldiers who are working hard.
Beta walked to the battlements and looked at the white tents stationed about a kilometer below the wall, and from the number of soldiers in front of the enemy tents and the number of tents, the total number of enemies should be more than 20,000.
Moreover, the enemy's tent was protected by a layer of pale red barriers, and even from a distance of thousands of meters, Beta could feel the magic fluctuations emanating from the barrier, which made people feel a little headache.
"Such an exaggerated enchantment...... It feels like Zoroastrianism has almost sent all the elite priests over. Beta sighed: "It seems that they are bound to win the Bronze Drum City, what is the reason?" ”
Alice shook her head, unclear.
Beta had the 'Cloud Dragon Blue Eyes' and could see extremely far away, he looked at it for a while, and suddenly asked, "I didn't see a drow elf, what's the matter?" ”
Alice was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The day before yesterday, the Drow elves also participated in the siege battle, but they were beaten down by us, so they may have retreated to the camp to rest." After all, drow elves don't like to move in the sun. ”
"They're not vampires, and just because they don't like it doesn't mean they can't!"
Beta's tone aggravated a little, and he looked at the towering mountains to the left and right of the city walls, such steep mountains were an insurmountable chasm for ordinary people and for armies, but for the drow elves, it was not the same.
"Alice, you immediately set up two small troops, a part of about a thousand men, preferably cavalry, to patrol the foot of the mountain near this pass day and night, I suspect that the drow elves are about to cross the mountain and come in."
When Alice heard this, her expression turned grim and she nodded.
"Another force of 500 men retreated to Tonggu City, guarded the four gates, and put them on 12-point alert."
Alice continued to nod.
Beta thought for a moment and continued, "It's still not safe enough, I'll ask Katie to bring her team back to help you defend the city gates in a while." Drow elves are mostly assassins and are adept at night operations, and are generally no match for them at night. Katie was also an assassin, and with her help, things would be much easier. ”
Alice breathed a sigh of relief: "Beta, fortunately, you are here, if you don't talk about these things, I don't know how to deal with them at all, I only know how to carry it head-on." ”
Alice is a qualified general, leading troops to fight, she is actually not bad, dare to rush and fight. But in terms of tactics and strategy, she is a little bad, after all, she is a half-elf, and her personality doesn't like to think about these crooked things, plus she has been well protected before, and she has no experience in war, she can lead the army and stick to the northern pass for a few days, which has done a good job.
"I'll talk about these things later, you go and arrange things for the next two years first, and I'll go back to Wojin City and bring some people over to help."
Alice immediately descended the walls, and Beta teleported directly back to Woking.
Then he went straight to Judy, who was resting in the room.
The butterfly girl is cleaning her pair of wings, although theoretically speaking, she is already a master, and her body will not get dirty casually, but for female reasons, she still likes to clean her body.
After all, she felt that Beta must also be a girl who likes to be clean and fragrant.
Judy was naturally very happy to see Beta, and Beta told him what was going on in Drum City, and then said, "Therefore, I want to hire your mercenary group." ”
Judy was naturally willing, but she still said with some concern: "I have to discuss this matter with the members, but don't worry, Beta, I will definitely try my best to convince them." ”
Hearing that it was possible to help Beta so soon, Judy was naturally excited, feeling that she was useful.
Beta said: "I'm going with you, and if you ask someone to do something, you have to look like you're asking someone to do something, at least it looks sincere." ”
More than ten minutes later, when Beta and Judy appeared at the mercenary station, everyone in the Silver Wing Mercenary Group had a strange look on their faces.
Beta said what he meant, and then said: "I will pay the commission according to the rules of the mercenary world, because it involves the war, this time the mercenaries are ten times as many as before, and I am willing to pay three hundred gold coins to hire you." ”
When all the mercenaries heard this amount of gold coins, they all looked dazed, which was really an unimaginable amount of money for them, three hundred gold coins were distributed among individuals, and each of them had twenty gold coins.
Even the calmest old mercenary had a stunned expression, but he quickly came to his senses and asked, "Your Majesty, this incident is very dangerous?" ”
