"What's the hurry, it's a distance of 50 miles from Baras to Aaron, and even if the Falcon Army really storms Baras, there are still 170,000 of our troops there!"

He has always expressed contempt for the weakness of the Parliament, the Great War is imminent, the Parliament even allows the refugees to flee, this kind of woman's kindness, itself is an extremely bad influence on the soldiers fighting ahead, he came here today to strongly demand that Duo Xuan close the city gates, just as he met several Speakers of the Parliament asking Duo Xuan to withdraw the General Council to a safe area, "The Falcon Army is not from Baras!"

The civilian who came to report panted and said, his hand trembling and pointing to the northeast, "They are from the river, and now outside the city of Aaron, it is already full of falcon warships, go and see, the entire port in the east of the city is full of enemies, and the city is in chaos!"

"Are you saying that the Falcon bypassed Barras and went straight down the river from Kurma!" this sentence suddenly made the faces of everyone in the office change color,

"This is impossible, haven't I already ordered you to send someone to cut off the river with a sunken ship? Why did the Falcon Army still come up from the water?"

He hurried to the window of the office, and his face suddenly turned pale,

The streets were already in chaos, and everywhere there were people running in all directions, and the terrible sound of bells representing the attack kept coming from the towers in the northeast, and the report was right, at the location of the port outside the city in the northeast, several thick black smoke rose into the sky,

The only thing that is good is that the port of Aaron City is not in the city, but on an inland lake 2 kilometers away from Aaron City.\\ But from the position of the window, you can clearly see that there are countless black spots on the river surface of the eastern inner bend, and it is roughly estimated that the number of warships is at least more than 20.

If the average troop carrier carries 300 people, the Falcon Army that has arrived outside Aaron City is at least about 6,000 people. Such a powerful combat force is enough to undertake the task of breaking through the attack on the periphery of the sub-chaos.

What worries him the most is not these, but how the Falcon Army broke through the inland river blockade is the most fundamental crux. Otherwise, the 100,000 Falcon troops upstream will come like this, and the hundreds of thousands of volunteers placed on the front line in Barras will no longer have the slightest advantage of the favorable terrain, and they will face a frontal battle of 100,000 elite troops, and it will definitely be a massacre for those civilians who have not even been trained!

"General Rydowns, who did you send to carry out the order to block the river road?" Turning his head with a hideous face, his eyes glared angrily at a general Dorok standing below, a solemn murderous aura came up from his back, and he said loudly, "Such an important military decision has been delayed until this time, such a person should be dealt with immediately!"

"The one in charge of blocking the river is the head of the newly formed Seventh Banner Regiment, Rubier Banner!

The general of the military had an ugly face and replied with a sad face, "Your Excellency gave the order to lock the river with a sunken ship, but because a large number of sunken ships are needed to block the river, it is now a mess. I can't find such a number of ships...... "How could there be!" Isn't there always a forest of ships in Aaron Harbor?" Hearing this, Duo Ze's face became heavier and heavier, and he snorted, "I also deliberately checked the records of the port when I gave the order. In July and August alone, there were 78 large merchant ships docked in Aaron Harbor, not counting those small and medium-sized ships, to put it mildly, only half of them were enough to block the entire river!" "Your Excellency the Speaker is right, Aaron Harbor is indeed a forest of ships, but it has been empty for most of the time lately, and all that remains are two or three kittens with no background, who have to venture out to make a living!"

The army general looked at the speakers of the council on the opposite side and said, "As for the large merchant ships that can be used to sink ships and block the river. Actually, it's not completely impossible, but this requires the help of the council, and unfortunately, our requests have been directly ignored" "The help of the council?" Duo Ze's face was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the general's embarrassed look, he immediately knew what was going on.

The port of Aaron City is the responsibility of the council, and in peacetime, many speakers have built fleets to use the river to transport goods, and since the last time the meeting formulated a method of sinking ships to block the river, the speakers have long ordered their fleets to hide in other places,

As a result, the entire port of Aaron has shrunk dramatically.

The army requisitioned ships everywhere, but could not even find a large merchant ship, and only some small fishing boats that could not be reused, even if the army expropriated them all, it would not be enough to block this section of the river, which is 100 miles long and more than 30 meters wide

"You ...... I really don't know what to say about you!" Duo Ze looked at a few speakers who were still clamoring to evacuate just now with bloodshot eyes, and the speakers bowed their heads one after another, and Duo Ze's eyes were too terrifying, like a bitten beast

One of the Speakers replied with a look of disdain

"Your Excellency the Speaker, this matter was originally a problem with the military, there is no boat, don't they know how to use other methods, such as blocking the river with boulders, the other party is so shirking responsibility, obviously trying to get rid of their own punishment!"

"Boulders blocking the river? Only you old men hiding in Aaron's city would think of such an idiotic solution! If you have the ability, you can use stones to block it!" His words were like lighting an explosion barrel, and the generals of the military turned red and filled with righteous indignation.

The speakers don't know, the military has really done such a thing, but in the face of the real power of heaven and earth, the humility of manpower is simply in vain, some time ago the torrential rain fell for more than ten days in a row, the water level of the river soared, in such a tumbling river, the military in the case of fruitless collection, can only helplessly order the soldiers to block the river with stones, at first it was relatively smooth,

But as the blockage of the river narrows with distance, the situation quickly reverses, and the impact of the river multiplies, and the heavy boulders are finally swept away by the raging river as soon as they are launched, and the barrage breaks in the middle under the overwhelm.

The consequences of the dam collapse cost the military three officers and more than 200 people under their command, and one of the officers was the son of a general who was now present

"That's enough, if there is anything to argue about later, let's find a way to snatch the port back from the Falcon Army!" Duo Xue waved his hand with a stern face, stopping the situation of the two sides being on the same page, looking at the place where the smoke rose in the distance, and said in a condensed voice, "Otherwise, when the assault force of the Falcon Army gains a foothold in the port, there will definitely be more enemies coming down the river, and we must immediately mobilize some people from Baras to come back and counterattack!" ......

On a warship on the inner bend of the river in the east, the commander of the western legion, Krollissat, was also looking at the majestic city across the river with a focused gaze, in all fairness, this city at the heart of the Dorok people was built extremely strong, the tall city wall was like a cliff, extending along the outer part of the city into the distance, from the position where he stood, he could see that the Dorok people on the city wall were running busily, and some trebuchets placed on the tower platform were also pushed out, and the alarm bell representing the enemy attack vibrated over the city, like a frightened little woman,

It seems that this sword of his own did catch the Aarons off guard, and the only thing that is a pity is that this time the navy only dispatched 20 warships converted with troop carriers, and the troops that can be brought are only 6,000 people, which is not ordinary thin compared to the 170,000 enemies on Aaron's side indicated in the newspaper.

But Croresart didn't worry much about this, these 6,000 people were the elite he personally selected from the legion, 2,000 senior marksmen and 2,000 thorn thorn longbowmen, this kind of combat power is enough to deal with the Dorok people want to rely on the number of people to launch 1 charge, and the remaining 2,000 people are the hoplites he specially borrowed from the Northern Army, this time it is a siege battle, if there is no hoplite pressing, the light tactics of the Western Army will be very limited

6,000 lions are definitely stronger than 170,000 sheep, and Croryssatt believes that with 20 ships full of Thor on the river, and 4,000 specially selected strong marksmen, Aaron will know how vulnerable he is!

Only by showing absolute force will the resistance of Aaron City be minimized!

"My lord, the 1,000 forwards of our army have broken through the defense line of the harbor defenders and are fully occupying the harbor!" an officer of the Western Army came running from the front to report

"Order the troops to build defenses on the spot!" their task is to nail the harbor to death," Croresart ordered with a grim face, and on his side, the flaps on the sides of several battleships were slowly opening, and the huge hulls of the ships were hitting the ripples of the water, like several giant beasts stretching their bodies on the surface of the lake, and some swarthy gun muzzles sticking out of the hatches

"Yes, my subordinate understands!" the officer turned away

Krollissat's eyes narrowed slightly, as the largest inland port in Dorok, the terrain of Aaron Port is a little low-lying, the perimeter of the port is an open field about 100 meters long, and then there is a 3-meter-high perimeter low wall, which can become the center of gravity for the senior shooters to support the defense line, and the second line of defense is the port building closest to the water, Crollissat decided to use it as his headquarters, and finally the edge of the 20 warships docked

By the time the first qiē was arranged, most of the time had passed, and the counterattack of Aaron City did not move, and the Falcon Army was also waiting in the port.

Strange sit-down war, by the time the Aarons completely understood that this force of the Falcon Army would not have reinforcements in the short term, it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon,

Some of the Dorok troops began to march out of the city, and they assembled on the outskirts of the harbor, forming loose formations of about 10,000 men. This is the beginning of the Battle of Aaron......)
