"Hasn't that idiot Palmer made a decision yet?"

Henry, who was sitting in the Chinese army, knocked on Erlang's leg, holding a glass of luscious red wine and shaking it gently, the blood-like color made him very intoxicated, he took a sip gently, and after being intoxicated for a long time, he drank all the red wine in the cup in one gulp, and smashed it in his mouth: "Hmm...... Sure enough, I still can't learn their elegance, I don't know what's so good about this thing, and sure enough, the thunder beer brewed by the dwarves is more in line with my taste. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"General, the door is still not open, but ...... We've found a lot more on the walls, and Palmer is afraid that all the men have been forcibly conscripted. ”

"Hmph, what if those people are forcibly recruited? Does that idiot really think that a single steel gate will be able to hold back our Grace warriors? It's so naïve. Once the city is breached, everyone will be the souls of our Grace warriors! ”

Henry wiped the wine on his hands on his cloak, then put on his helmet, lifted the tent and walked out, looking at the city gate not far in front of him and sneered: "I just don't want to waste my strength, open the city gate and offer food and treasure, maybe I can leave them a way to live, since they are so stubborn, then give them some color and see." ”

A grim smile flashed on Henry's face: "Now the city of Silas must be crowded with refugees, the order is to go down, the archers are ready to shoot!" I suppose a rain of arrows might change Palmer's old thing's mind? ”

Siege warfare, ready to go!

"Archer prepare—"

Just as Henry was about to use a rain of arrows to let King Palmer know his mistake, a fast horse suddenly rushed from the flank.

The cavalryman on horseback shouted: "General Henry! Emergency military intelligence! ”

The sword raised high in the air was slowly lowered, and he stared at the approaching cavalryman: "Report the situation." ”

"Our team was sweeping through the villages to the east, when we suddenly spotted a large army that had been strange all along, heading this way! They're blazing fast! And it's very quirky! ”

"An army from the east?"

Henry frowned: "Mo is not the army of the Illuth Empire?" Did they really come to the aid of the Duchy of Syrah? ”

"Judging from the banner outside, it is indeed the army of the Ilrus Empire, but it ......"

The cavalryman's expression was very strange: "That army is really strange, there are not many soldiers who can be seen, but they are driving a large number of steel golems!" It is suspected that there are a large number of soldiers hiding inside the steel golems! ”

"Steel golem!?"

Henry's face changed: "Are you sure it's a steel golem?!" That kind of alchemy war machine!? ”

"I'm not sure, but ......"

The cavalryman said helplessly: "That kind of thing is really made of steel throughout, and the speed of that thing is very fast, I don't know how much faster than the war horse, and it is not a problem to cross the mountains and mountains, we saw with our own eyes that the steel puppet rushed directly into the forest, and then crashed out of a road!" ”

"Shhh

Henry took a breath of cold air, and his mind raced: "How long will they get here?" ”

The cavalryman's face was full of bitterness: "Our activities in the villages and towns to the east have slowed down their advance, but I'm afraid...... No more than twenty ticks. ”

"How many people are there? Is there an Apocalypse? ”

"I can't see it, but the size of the team is so large that it can even rival our army. As for the Apocalypse...... We have not been at war with each other, so we have no way of knowing. ”

"Ten thousand people, ......"

Henry's expression was rather strange: "The Illuth Empire would send 10,000 warriors to support a principality...... It seems that we all underestimated the decisiveness of that Donn, and he really wanted to protect his reputation. ”

Originally, the invasion and plundering of Silas by the Kingdom of Grace was already a matter of agreement with Sorant, and the Principality of Silas was just an unlucky principality, which originally served as a buffer zone, and the two sides did not affect each other.

Although Solant has now been recovered by the Illuth Empire, the tacit understanding with Solant should not change, after all, the Duchy of Syrah is just a buffer zone.

However, the Don of the Illus Empire is probably a regent who cherishes his reputation so much that he did not hesitate to send 10,000 troops to support the Duchy of Syrah......

Hum.

10,000 against 10,000 seems to be evenly matched, but what about the real situation?

Henry sneered, it's only 10,000 people, even if there are steel golems? We Grace warriors can fight ten at a time!

Henry began to calculate in his heart, this time among the 10,000 troops he led, in addition to the 8,000 ordinary soldiers, 2,000 of them were Apocalypse, and among the 2,000 Apocalypse, there were 1,500 Black Iron Peak, 450 Silver Level, and 50 Gold Apocalypse, and he himself was a Grandmaster Peak Master.

Such a powerful army, even if you look at the whole of Plandal, is definitely uncommon.

What's more, even if they are ordinary soldiers, the Grace people have to undergo cruel training since they were young, and their bodies are strong and their combat effectiveness is amazing, compared to the Ilrus people, it is not an exaggeration to fight ten at a time!

We have an advantage in terms of individual combat capabilities!

On their own side, by plundering the Duchy of Silas these days, in addition to the grain and grass sent back to the Kingdom of Grace, they have accumulated a large amount of grain and grass in the rear, and the supply is not a problem at all, even if there is a real shortage, they can also get supplies by scattering and raiding other villages.

On the other hand, the army of the Illus Empire traveled a long way to support, and the grain and grass consumed by the 10,000 army was not a small number, and they came to support, and it was inevitable that they would not be able to replenish the grain and grass by plundering, and they surrounded Sila City, and they could not get supplies from Sila City, which meant that they would become weaker and weaker the more they fought.

In terms of supply, you have the advantage!

Looking at the weather again, it is already the end of the sleeping month, and the temperature has dropped further, and it is already very cold.

But compared to the cruel Grace Kingdom, this climate is so docile that people want to doze off, and it will not affect the combat effectiveness at all.

However, the Illus Empire is located in the eastern plains region, and the climate is usually warm, and their cold-resistant ability is definitely not as good as their own, which means that their combat ability will be seriously affected by the climate, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

In terms of the environment, you also have an advantage!

No matter how you compare, the right time, place and people have accounted for two of the three, you tell me how to lose this battle?

The only destabilizing factor is the opponent's steel puppet.

However, as far as Henry knows, the activity ability of the steel golem will also be affected by the temperature, the colder the temperature, the worse the activity ability of the steel golem, and in the current temperature, even the steel golem will not be able to exert much combat effectiveness.

What's more, if a conservative strategy is implemented to fight a war of attrition, the other side loses supplies, and even if there are steel puppets, they will eventually become an iron box that imprisons them, and they don't have to care at all.

The only uncertain factor is the number of Apocalypse in the opposing army......

According to past experience, most of the apocalypse people in the Irrus Empire are accustomed to becoming adventurers, or mercenaries, and few people are willing to join the army, which is different from the Kingdom of Grace, once the citizens of the Kingdom of Grace awaken to become the Apocalypse, the first choice is to join the army and contribute their strength to His Majesty Stanley, so the number of Apocalypse in the army of the Kingdom of Grace is extremely high.

Henry was at least eighty percent sure that their Apocalypse must have more Apocalypse than this reinforcement!

Do you want to fight?

The victory rate of your own side is very high, if you completely annihilate this reinforcement, it will definitely cause huge losses to the Ilrus Empire, maybe Your Majesty will take this opportunity to directly start a war and unify the Ilrus Empire......

Henry didn't say a word, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly came to his senses and cursed in confusion.

What are they coming out for this time?

It's to grab money and food for the Grace Kingdom!

Now His Majesty Stanley's plan is at a critical moment, and there is no interest in doing anything else!

In other words, there is no need for him to go to war with this reinforcement!

Will that reinforcement reach Silas twenty minutes at the latest?

Henry quickly made a decision and decisively ordered: "Pass the order!" Start the siege now! Be sure to take the city gate within two quarters, we still have ten quarters to go, grab the food and grass as soon as possible, and then withdraw immediately! ”

He decided to take a risk and make a time difference with the other party, twenty quarters of time, leaving a margin of ten quarters, two moments of siege was more than enough, and the remaining eight quarters were enough to sack the city of Silas and then evacuate from here.

Even if the reinforcements found out their evacuation route, Henry was not worried that they would catch up, since it was a reinforcement, it was to support and protect the city of Silas as the primary goal, no commander would be stupid enough to continue to pursue the other party in order to support a principality, wasting his own soldiers.

If he had, he would be the stupidest commander in the world.

Henry's order was immediately delivered, and the archers, who had already been preparing for the attack, immediately wound their arrows and began the first round of throwing!

A dense rain of arrows roared into the sky, over the city walls, and fell into the city of Silas.

"It's a pity!"

Henry sighed, because it was a raiding mission, so he didn't carry siege weapons such as catapults at all on this trip, otherwise, just this round of attacks would have been enough to destroy Silas.

After all, the small principality of Silas does not have a magician stationed here, and there are no overly famous powerhouses, just an inconspicuous principality.

Henry had even closed his eyes and pricked up his ears, waiting to hear the sound of the rain of arrows coming from the city of Silas.

"Ah!!h

A heart-rending scream came as expected, and a smile appeared on Henry's face, but suddenly, a smile froze on his face.

Why are these screaming voices so close?

And, why do these sounds so familiar?

“……！！！”

When Henry opened his eyes, he suddenly stayed there, followed by a breath of cold air, and exclaimed, "What's going on!?" ”
