League of Legends Millennium Warlord
Chapter 680 Chapter 678 The estranged alliance
As soon as noon passed, blurry faces appeared in the cold mist. An unknown legion was slowly approaching the west wall of Winterfell Castle, with the sound of hooves thundering.
The horn soldier took a deep breath and blew the horn. In the heavy and solemn sound of the horn, all the defenders were refreshed and their eyes were stern.
Winterfell Castle Guard General Ma Nan drew his long sword and spoke with a deep and resounding voice.
"Archer! Wait until the enemy enters shooting range and shoot freely!"
"Heavy crossbow infantry! Aim at the enemy's siege equipment!"
"General! More enemies are coming from the west! No siege equipment is seen!"
The slightly shrill voice of the sentry came from the sentry tower, and Manan immediately changed his order.
"In that case, the heavy crossbow infantry is on standby! Avoid wasting arrows."
The soldiers were not afraid of enemies coming from afar. In Manan's decision-making, the middle and lower-level officers made more subtle adjustments. Manan himself transferred two archer troops from the reserve to go to the west tower in person to replace them. The pikemen, who were temporarily ineffective, were removed to strengthen the lethality of the west wall.
Behind the wall stacks, archers and crossbowmen interspersed to form a defense line. Since there were no siege equipment, the enemy could not scale the twelve-meter-high city wall with bare hands. They only needed to place a small number of gun and shield soldiers behind the archers. Respond to arrows and emergencies.
Winterfell Castle has a total of 30,000 garrison troops, 10,000 people are stationed in the residences under the castle as a reserve team, ready for support at any time, and another 5,000 people are stationed in three parts on the north, south, and west sections of the city wall. They were commanded by two legion deputy generals and Ma Nan respectively.
The remaining 5,000 people were divided into three waves again: 1,000 people maintained security in the castle, 1,000 people garrisoned the lord's inner castle, and another 3,000 people garrisoned armories, granaries and other important places to prevent spies from sabotaging and to deal with emergencies. .
Under the rule of Ignati Woods and her fathers, Winterfell gained its vast wealth from strip mines and quarries near the mountains.
With money, Winterfell Castle armed itself at all costs. After decades of accumulation, Winterfell Castle has numerous arms and complete equipment. The soldiers' treatment and pensions are extremely high, exceeding the average in the southern border of the empire. Therefore, the morale of the soldiers High-spirited and strong-willed to fight,
The only problem is that the location of Winterfell Castle is somewhat remote, and wars rarely occur. However, this has actually promoted the prosperity of the castle, allowing more people to choose to settle in villages or towns near Winterfell Castle.
All in all, relying on the advantage of the terrain, if you want to attack the castle before it is empty, you must have at least five times more troops. This is the understanding of most soldiers. The food stored in the city is enough to sustain the food and clothing of 50,000 people for six months. , there is no need to worry about running out of ammunition and food.
"Woooooo~~~"
When the soldiers guarding the city were moving, the sound of the golden horn suddenly came from outside the city.
As there were more and more enemies outside the city, the Nockland Cavalry Regiment lined up two miles outside the city and opened up their formation. About 10,000 infantrymen were divided into three square formations and carried improvised siege ladders. After the cavalry, the momentum was chilling.
[There are less than 20,000 people who dare to attack Winterfell Castle, and 5,000 of them are heavy cavalry. Is that old guy Timothy crazy? 】
In Manan's thoughts, a knight on a tall horse raised his helmet, and under the protection of two other knights holding shields, slowly approached the city wall and stopped less than a mile away.
In this position, although the crossbowmen on the city wall can cause effective damage to the knights, they cannot break through the defense of the kite-shaped shield and horse armor. As long as the knights want to run away, they will not be able to stay. This is the most suitable position for conversation.
Manan took a closer look and saw that the person who came was not Hajie, the deputy leader of the knights under Timothy, and who was it?
"General Manan, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"
Hajie had a relaxed smile on his face, as if this was an impromptu gathering of old friends.
Smiling without changing his expression, Ma Nan also raised his voice.
"Thank you for your concern. It was fine before the "Deputy" Knight Commander Hajie came. But I don't know what it means that the "Deputy" Knight Commander Hajie brought so many people to me to reminisce about the past?
It's just that Winterfell Castle is too small, and Deputy Knight Commander Haje can do it alone. If he brings so many people, he won't be able to accommodate Deputy Knight Commander Haje. Otherwise, I would rather have a private drink with you. Hidden mead. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers guarding the city wall burst into laughter, and Hajie's expression froze.
After four consecutive words with the word "vice" with exclamation marks, even Hajie couldn't hold back his expression.
Over the years, everyone has known that there is a guy with a corpse on his head, but they don't talk about it on weekdays. After all, no one wants to offend a promising general. Although he has a 'deputy' , as long as he does not lead the Knockland Knights to betray Timothy, he is the only commander.
Furthermore, in the three competitive competitions for the King of the South, he defeated all competitors, won the supreme honor for Timothy, and obtained the qualification to occupy Knockland.
Whether it was military strategy or combat, he was the best in the southern border of the empire. Although he never expressed the pride in his heart, he could not tolerate such sarcasm from others.
"General Manan has a clever mouth smeared with mead. No wonder he stood out and became a 'general'."
There was a smile on his face again, but Hajie's tone was cold, explaining what it means to be smiling but not smiling.
"I don't have to drink alcohol. I don't have the time to gossip, Lord Manan.
The reason for coming here is for no other reason than to arrest and examine Lord Ignati Woods on the order of Lord Timothy, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Empire Alliance.
Someone submitted evidence to Lord Timothy that Lord Ignati Woods was collaborating with the enemy and treason. After preliminary review, Lord Ignaty Woods was highly suspected.
This time during the war, Ignati Woods chose both sides, betraying the interests of the Southern Empire Alliance for her own prosperity and wealth, colluding with the Emerald Collar in private, and ruining dozens of lives of the Southern Empire Alliance. The lives of thousands of loyal soldiers,
According to the laws of the Southern Empire Alliance, traitors should have been executed immediately. However, Lord Timothy was thinking about his old relationship and was worried about being framed by others, so he sent me to personally investigate the matter of Lord Ignati Woods.
As long as one or two key points are solved, we can know whether Lord Ignati Woods is collaborating with the enemy and treason. As long as Lord Ignati Woods is willing to go to Knockland with me to cooperate with the investigation.
I have no intention of being an enemy of Winterfell Castle. General Manan, if you are still a member of the Southern Empire Alliance, quickly open the city gate and let me in. I believe Lord Ignati Woods is innocent, but I personally believe that and You can't change anything. I hope you can understand the stakes. Don't make things difficult for me, so as not to hurt the harmony. "
After what he said, the soldiers guarding the city couldn't help but feel a little shaken. Hajie's words were so conclusive that he didn't seem to be lying.
Although Ma Nan, who looked gloomy, did not know whether the lord he was loyal to was collaborating with the enemy and treason, he knew that no matter who wanted to attack the lord, he would not allow it.
Let’s not talk about the situation on the side of Lord Ignati Woods. There are less than a thousand heavily armed soldiers in the fortress. If Hajie’s knights are really allowed to break into the castle, it will really be a big deal who will win. Not necessarily anymore.
With a plan in mind, Ma Nan spoke.
"In this case, after General Hajie retreats ten miles, I can make the decision and let General Hajie bring ten people into the fort for investigation. Until there is no conclusive evidence of collaborating with the enemy, Ignati Woods will still be my master. Naturally, I will not Let you take it away."
"Humph, are you stubborn?"
He had long known that Manan would not be able to open the city gate easily, and Hajie could not help but feel a little regretful at this moment.
"In this case, we have nothing to talk about, let's start the war."
"Master Manan, do you want to shoot the enemy?"
"No need."
Watching Hajie leave with cold eyes, Manan did not order the arrow to be fired. If he was sure that he could kill Hajie, it would be fine. If he were to launch a sneak attack without much certainty, it would not look good and would affect his own side. morale.
Returning to the military formation, Hajie found Lobito who was hiding and setting up the formation. Hajie was soon stunned.
Circles and circles of gray-green magic powder appeared on the originally empty flat ground. Five seemingly valuable crystals were located in five different positions, forming five connected concentric circles.
The gaps between the concentric circles depict densely packed unknown patterns and words. For some reason, Hajie always felt that these patterns and words were twisting and turning as if they were alive.
At this moment, Lobito was using the bag in his hand to trace the core part. About ten minutes later, the dark green crystal that had never left his hand was placed at the center of the circle.
Standing up from the ground, Lobito had an uncontrollable smile on his face.
"Sir Lobito, was it successful?"
Nodding, Lobito's sharp voice sounded like a ghost from a yaksha.
"Although it took a lot of effort, it was successful at least. General Hajie, this is your stage. I can't interfere too much. Whether you can get the approval of the master and enter the Hall of Valor is all up to you. The master likes the purest blood and death, do you understand?”
Recalling the Lord of the Hall of Valor that he saw, Hajie felt a chill in his heart.
"I see."
Taking a deep breath, Hajie mounted his horse again and came to the battle formation.
The bloodthirsty desire to fight made Hajie's eyes turn red. He put down his helmet and the man drew out his long sword.
"Kill them all! Leave no one behind!"
…
At Brewster Castle, Lester put down the urgent secret letter and let out a breath, with a smile on his face.
When Mordekaiser chose to intervene, the situation became more chaotic than imagined, but the problem was not too big.
Not only did he have a plan in the southern border of the empire, Mordekaiser also extended his hand to the northern border of the empire, and his delusions spread everywhere to combat the arrogance of the Emerald Territory.
First, Vladimir, who had reached a cooperation with Mordekaiser, took action in advance. While hiding LeBlanc, he teamed up with Brown to dig out Thane's bones, and used black magic and blood magic to successfully transform Thane into a war puppet.
With Thane as the vanguard, the Scarlet Society as the main force, and a large group of blood slaves controlled by the Scarlet Society, the coalition forces under Vladimir launched a crazy attack on the Black Rose Mage Academy.
Originally, the Black Rose would suffer heavy casualties under the attack of the undead Thane, but because of Lester's reminder, LeBlanc had already made preparations and successfully used the traitors of the Black Rose to deliver false news, and then used fraud to induce the attackers to break in. When I entered the academy, I had a chance to catch a turtle in an urn.
The invincible Thane was finally trapped in a magical chamber by the Black Rose mage with a special steel hoop. The remaining Scarlet Society mages and blood slaves were also killed one by one. Vladimir's conspiracy was perfectly defeated. Unfortunately, When LeBlanc led the counterattack, Vladimir had disappeared. LeBlanc could only take revenge by eradicating the remnants of the Scarlet Society.
On the other side, the security of the Immortal Fortress, which was disrupted by Camille, is getting worse day by day. Frauds are being framed everywhere. Everyone between the old aristocrats and the new aristocrats is in danger and suspicious of each other.
Under the high-pressure environment, large-scale chaos soon broke out in the Immortal Fortress. More and more assassinations and sabotage had to force the Imperial Legion to maintain round-the-clock martial law.
As a result, Brandak Will, who had defected to Mordekaiser, was unable to unite the old nobles into a centripetal force against the Emerald Territory. Even the 'Emerald Territory's harmful theory' propagated to the people of the empire was eliminated due to Camille's intervention. It didn't have much effect [Camille spread the evidence provided by Lester and effectively refuted the high command's statement],
Although the outside world doesn't say it, at least most of the citizens of the empire living in the Immortal Fortress do not believe the evidence of the 'Emerald Demon Channeler' issued by the Supreme Command [Note: The so-called evidence is the magic image crystal recorded by Timothy's mage. The picture shows the Timothy Legion being attacked by those infected by the Crystal Nightmare Potion],
They also do not believe that the Emerald Territory sent only 10,000 legions south to start a civil war. Instead, they are more willing to believe that the Emerald Territory was framed, so that the people of the empire are angry at the Supreme Command, which has been doing nothing but jumping around. A lot of resentment.
Because of this, Brown, who has never been able to calm down the chaos in the Immortal Fortress, can only concentrate on dealing with the hostile forces of the Immortal Fortress. In tears, he respectfully sent the work of the review mission to Demacia, which claims to be a 'just city', so that he can prepare to follow Jarvan II, who was playing a marginal OB behind Brown, was dumbfounded.
As promised, the elder brother is here, and the younger brother is lucky to follow. Demacia just wants to take advantage of the emerald leader's wall and everyone is pushing it, to add a stone to the well, plant a flag and pick up the leaks. How come the younger brother has now become the elder brother who is a target? ?
What troubled Jarvan II the most was that the review mission led by Brandak Will, proposed by Timothy, the warlord of the Southern Empire Alliance, actually succeeded in gaining the support of the Kingdom of Northland and the Principality of Valoran. The three The country also took the initiative to recognize the "just act" of the Kingdom of Demacia, willing to live under it, and provided all verbal assistance except material and military power.
Seeing that he had become a surrogate father inexplicably, Jarvan II couldn't express his pain. If he quit now, the so-called justice of Demacia would become a joke.
But if he took the initiative to send troops and the other three countries did not send coalition troops, Demacia would become the only country to go to war against the Emerald Territory. He could not afford this price.
Therefore, Jarvan II, who was secretly cursing, could only find a relatively unlucky guy to go to Fidelite and meet with the envoys from the Kingdom of Northland and the Principality of Valoran at the border of Fidelite.
Naturally, the three people were kicked out for illegal entry because they did not have passes, and each of them was fined two silver coins.
The so-called censorship mission turned into a complete joke because there was no United Legion to hold the line.
