Fort Berranni is the most important military base of the Kingdom of Mordan, whether it is the production base of the Mordan repeater produced by the Mordan people after the mechanical crossbow of the Eastern Continent, or the Mordan crossbowmen who are the foundation of the Mordan people's state, they are all trained in this three-story fortress.

Yes, that's right, this military fortress built on the Watt Mountain Range, when it was still a fortress-level building, was already a giant city wall with a three-story wall width of about 8 meters, coupled with the large battlefield area of this castle, there is a land dedicated to growing mushrooms and other ingredients inside, and there are a large number of trees and stones on the mountain behind the castle that can be mined, and there are streams inside the mountains, so that the defenders of the city can face millions of lions. As long as there are more than 10 soldiers in the city armed with Mordan repeaters (the disadvantage of repeaters is that they are generally lethal and armor-piercing, but the advantage is that the rate of fire is extremely fast in the short term, and they are as easy to use as ordinary crossbows, so this means that as long as there are 100,000 people over 15 years old to under 60 years old in the city, it can be equivalent to 100,000 soldiers with crossbows), then it can be stopped by a million lions.

This is also the reason why the Mordan Kingdom was plundered by the Water Qilin Empire this time, but it was able to avoid being destroyed again and again. Because the Kingdom of Moldan has a Moldan Imperial City built in the center of the Great Lakes as the political center, and this military center that has not been a problem for decades.

Of course, if it was changed to before, that is, about half a year ago, if the sun never set the Great Empire to capture this military fortress, it would definitely give Sun Lin a headache like the Water Qilin Empire, but now.........., after discussing with the three generals, all the 20 heavy siege guns in their hands were handed over to the 100,000 troops of Andelte attacking Fort Berranni, it is estimated that the next headache is not the sun does not set but the Mordans, and it is estimated that the Moldans will not only have a headache at that time......... …

One of the goals of the town of Shekdor for the army to never set is because the city is a relatively important town in the territory of the Kingdom of Moldan. The roads connecting this town are fully connected to more than 80% of the cities and castles of the Kingdom of Moldan; Second, Shekdor Town is located in the largest Shekdor Basin in the territory of the Moldan Kingdom, the soil here is also relatively fertile, it is the most important grain production base of the Moldan Kingdom, and now it is the summer of the 8th year of the new calendar, because the geology as a whole is superior to the king of the continent The soil gives the farmers of this continent the reason why they can usher in the grain harvest twice a year, so at this time not far from June, the grain around the town of Shekdor has begun to mature, If the Mordans had captured the town of Shekdor and the surrounding area before the harvest fire had destroyed the grain, the soldiers would have been able to cut off the Mordan kingdom from food. Moreover, it can win food for the army on which the sun never sets, which is the most common but also the most important burden of war. Therefore, in order to save the food expenses of the granary of the Great Empire, and the next army of the Sun Never Sets will be combined again to besiege the city of Mordan, which is established on the island in the center of the Great Lake, and the army of the Sun will definitely capture this important town.

However, it will not be easy to take this important town, because as time goes by. The Kingdom of Mordan, which is closest to the commercial alliance, had already learned a few days ago that the Great Empire of the Sun Never Sets had led an army of nearly 300,000 to its side after making the commercial alliance its vassal state. It made the Moldan Kingdom panic at the same time. The Imperial City of Mordan also pressed all the forces at hand on the town of Shekdor.

Regardless of the reason why Fort Berdanie and Moldan City will not be captured by the army that never sets, in addition to the former's own perfect defense facilities, the Kingdom of Mordan can use the Mordan Repeater Workshop that has been running in Fort Berranni to continuously produce Moldan Repeaters to equip the citizens in Fort Berranni, making them conscription-type Moldan crossbowmen, these conscription-type Moldan crossbowmen are not strong in melee combat, and can even be said to be extremely poor. But the lethality from a distance is not weak, and the army of conscripted Mordan crossbowmen formed by more than 100,000 residents of Moldan is definitely a headache for the side that does not set the sun in the eyes of the high-level of the Moldan Kingdom.

As for the latter, not to mention the Imperial City of Moldan, which was built in the center of the Great Lakes. The huge lake on the periphery is used as a barrier, and the only way to the Imperial City of Moldan is a huge multi-arch bridge, which is guarded by a large number of high-ranking Moldan crossbowmen with strong long-range abilities, and before the sun sets does not build improvised ships, this bridge will harvest any soldiers who want to cross the bridge, and after the soldiers cross the bridge, they also have to face a boulder wall with only sandy beaches on all sides (the beach terrain can limit the use of siege weapons, Therefore, even if the siege towers built by the soldiers of the sun never set are transported to the outside of the Moldan Imperial City with the corresponding giant transport ships that can transport these siege towers, the siege towers cannot be used, and in addition, it is still a question whether the sun does not set can build a giant transport ship on the edge of this large lake, and by the way, the large lake outside the Moldan Imperial City is extremely wide, so the No. 3 counterweight trebuchet cannot throw stones from one side of the river to the other side of the river), unless the sun does not set and uses human life to pile up a slope at the gate corresponding to the bridge, Otherwise, in a short period of time, the sun never sets, and the army will not be able to pose a threat to the Moldan Imperial City.

Therefore, from these two facts, it can be seen that the victory or defeat of the battle of Shekdor was the first major turning point in the war between the Kingdom of Mordan and the Great Empire on which the sun never sets, which is why this town is worthy of Mordan sending the only troops at hand to defend it.

In addition to stationing heavy troops, the main reason why it is not so easy for the sun to set on this town is that it is the same as Fort Berranni, which has a terrain advantage that makes attack and defense extremely headaches: because this town is built on a steep hill (you can refer to the village terrain in the medieval 2 Total War Teutonic tragedy expansion), although the city's defense facilities are not strong, but it has a very high geographical advantage, The regular Mordan crossbowmen located on the hill can condescendingly tilt crossbow arrows to the soldiers who come to attack, while on the other hand, on the side of the sunset soldiers, siege equipment such as siege towers, rushing carts and even siege ladders are limited due to the terrain, and as a siege weapon for long-range strikes, although the No. 3 counterweight trebuchet can throw stones to the first layer of the hill, but it cannot be projected to the highest layer of the hill, that is, the second layer, so the lethality of the soldiers on the Mordan side is extremely limited.

Of course, the sun never sets is not without countermeasures, such as sending the griffin knights who never set the sun over, or letting the longbow troops who are good at mountain warfare and can throw arrows behind the wooden wall to try, but if you choose these two methods, the former will affect the surrounding farmland, and the latter is still unknown, and even if it succeeds, the longbow troops will definitely suffer heavy losses, so until now Henry, who is preparing to capture the town of Shekdor, is still in a tangle.

As for the last road, that is, the army that never sets on the sun led by Henry along the Egger Avenue, the goal they are moving forward is not the Egger Avenue, because the Egger Avenue is just a very famous avenue in the entire Western Regions of the Central Continent (Egger Avenue and Schinkel Avenue are both the two most famous continents in the Western Regions of the Central Continent, in addition to the fact that the scale of these two avenues is huge, and the average width of these two large stone roads is not even comparable to the stone roads built by the Sun Never Setting Empire, The most important thing is that among these two avenues, Egger Avenue connects the Commercial Alliance, the Moldan Kingdom, the United Kingdom of Aihuasha and Kirin City, and the Sinkel Avenue connects the 3 Duchies of the Western Regions of the Central Continent, the Morta Kingdom, the Bear Monster Tribe and the Bona Alliance, which means that these two avenues are completely the golden trade routes of the Western Regions of the Central Continent), rather than a city or fortress that can be captured.

Of course, the army led by Henry itself has no intention of capturing the city, and will not even participate in the next attack on the Imperial City of Moldan, because Henry's army of the sun never sets is given the task of cutting off: although the invasion of the Sun never sets empire, the Mordan Kingdom and the United Kingdom of Aihuasha have already stood on the opposite side of the Sun never set empire, and the Kingdom of Mordan, as one of the ways to prevent the sun never sets army from invading their own territory, must not be captured by the army that never sets. Therefore, as long as the high-level of the United Kingdom of Avatha is not stupid, and there are troops available in their hands, then the United Kingdom of Avatha will definitely send troops to the Kingdom of Moldan to support the Kingdom of Moldan against the army that does not set the sun, and if you want the support troops to reach the Kingdom of Moldan as soon as possible, the fastest way to take a shortcut is Iger Avenue.

So what Henry has to do is to intercept the reinforcements from the United Kingdom of Ihuasha on the Avenue of Ihuasa, of course, it would be better if this group of reinforcements could be eliminated, because in this way, the pressure on the army of the sun will be greatly reduced when the army of the sun never sets on the United Kingdom of Ahuasha is flanked, after all, the loss of troops in attack and defense in siege warfare will always be a lot, and the field battle is not necessarily.

While Henry intercepted this reinforcement from the United Kingdom of Avatha, he also needed to build fortifications to prevent the return of the cavalry units of the United Kingdom of Avatha and the United Kingdom of Moldan: although these cavalry had been disabled by the cavalry troops on the side of the sun at this time, after all, they were disabled rather than entangled, let alone destroyed, so these cavalry were very likely to rely on the mobility of the cavalry to return to the Kingdom of Murdan, and everyone knew that the advantage of cavalry was always greater than that of infantry in field battles.
