Chapter 98: Our inner sea

Chapter 98 Our Inner Sea
The Broken Dragon Fortress was built on the northern plain of the border between the stars and Exeter. The main body of the fortress is located in a highland, only a few hundred meters away from the border between the two countries as stipulated in the Fortress Peace Treaty.
The third continental war more than three hundred years ago created the legend of Sarah, Kaipeng and Midier, the Western "three heroes". But after the end of the war, between the hero of Exeter's hero Sarah and the swearing of the stars, Midier, the numerous historians and travellers sighed and broke, and the brothers broke. The alliance between the dragon and the stars has turned against the eyes.
So at the border between the two countries, Broken Dragon Fortress - a building with both political and military uses. Twelve years ago, the famous "Fortress Peace Treaty" between Stars and Exeter was signed here.
The northern plain stretched for several miles is the only place between the two countries that can circumvent the big needle forest in the snow and put a large number of troops on the border. But the guards of the Broken Dragon Fortress can see any team of more than ten people from the Exeter side on the plain; on the side of the stars, the Arunde family's Cold Fort and the Zemuto family Watching the city in its southwest direction, the old tower of the Forrest family is in the east, the three parties can always support the fortress. If any castle has the danger of falling into the siege, the Broken Dragon Fortress can also promptly alert.
The Broken Dragon Fortress is not a lone fortress. It consists of the largest and strongest star fortress in the highlands, and eight medium-sized forts guarding each other, and twelve simple sentries. To capture the Broken Dragon Fortress means rushing through countless trenches and refusing horses, removing the threat of bows from the eight medium-sized forts, and then following the only three narrow slopes, coming to the main body of the fortress, braving the stars. The bombardment of the magical gun on the convex wall, under a limited terrain, launched a siege war against the fortress wall of a dozen meters high.
If the army circumvents the fortress and directly goes to the important towns of the stars, then this fortress that can accommodate 10,000 people and has sufficient supplies, and the garrison can attack at any time, will instantly become the primary threat of the thorns in the back.
When Exeter’s black sand collar Dagong, 41-year-old Chaman Rumba, looked northward at the fortress in the moonlight, looking up at this easy-to-attack giant, the threat of the Broken Dragon Fortress to him was especially strong.
Twelve years ago, after his father and the entire family, he had a fair duel with his brother, and a sword pierced his heart to win the inheritance of the black sand collar, Chaman Lombard’s ambitions could not be suppressed. For example, the glory of the king is taken into the embrace of the Lombard family, and the kings of Exeter are turned into a black sand city. For example, the northern border of the stars is included in the governance of the Majesty, and the ancient northern territories scattered in the two countries are heavy. Belong to one.
Dagong himself wore a thick robes, lined with heavy chain armor, riding on the strong north ground, and the knights behind him held flags carrying iron fists representing the Lombard family. They were not far behind, they were densely packed. The military camps, from time to time, received small whistle rides or infantry units from the mission and went out of the border without any intention.
A strong, heroic, gray-helmeted knight, Lord Toulha, one of Exeter's "Five Wars", rushed from the front and stalked Leba in front of him, respectfully bowing at once.
Rumba nodded with no expression.
"Whether the caravans, hunters, supplies, and the patrols of the other side, we have all emptied and placed the squad scouts. If Arende of the Cold Fort and the other two families come to help, we will know for the first time..." The helmet of the helmet, Tulha Shen said: "Really to attack?"
"Of course! Our strength is more than 13,000. We ride the scout, reload the knight, the elite light-handling axe and the two-handed Epee, enough shooters, and also prepare the magical guns, throwing stones and other siege equipment. "An answer is a knight in the armor of Lombard. - Dagong's supporter and number one vassal, Earl Lewan: "We are dominant regardless of quantity or quality, and it is easy to defeat them!"
"That's a field battle - but they only have to shrink in the Broken Dragon Fortress one day, and we can't easily win." Tuleha shook his head: "From the last time they fell, they strengthened their fortifications. I suspect they took half of the country." The magic gun and the defending city are all equipped up... Forcible siege will only bring huge casualties."
and.
Tulleha secretly said in his heart: As long as the two people are still in the Broken Dragon Fortress, even if the opposite is a group of rabble, it is worthy of great vigilance.
Earl Lewan, who is dressed in a plate, has a firm expression: "We have mobilized so many troops that we can't return without success... If we can take the Broken Dragon Fortress, I think we can accept some casualties."
"Our enemy is not just a fortress, but the weather..."
A few people turned their heads and saw the wisdom and counsel of the Grand Duke of Lombard. The Viscount Kambida came from behind: "The cold weather will be earlier than in previous years. It is not a good time to enter the army. The delivery of supplies is not optimistic. Once the city is attacked. It’s not smooth, the war is glued... If we wait until the spring, we have a greater grasp of the fortress.

"Because of insufficient supply, it is necessary to make a quick decision!" Earl Lewan still insisted: "Winter combat is our advantage! The stars are hit harder by the winter - 12 years ago, we were attacked at this time. Fortress."
"That winter is the warmest in decades!" Tulleha shook his head in a dignified manner: "And at the time they were self-sufficient, there was no reinforcement in the north, and we were bringing together the seven great lords."
"And, until we break the fortress, we can only replenish it on the spot after we go south."
The Grandpa of Lombard slowly raised one hand and stopped the disputes of the three subordinates.
"How's the back?" Dagong's voice was dull and hoarse, and there was a power that made people quietly unconsciously.
"The messenger of Nun's majesty has arrived, and he can't hold him too long. We are sending troops in the name of helping the vengeance of His Royal Highness." Viscount Kambida leaned over and said: "And, I heard that the prince of the stars On the way, I will be there soon."
Lombard indulged and asked: "The Oledius of Willan, and the Tluedida family of rebuilt towers have not yet returned. They are the Grand Dukes of the south of Exeter, and they deserve enough to send troops."
"They must have received the news of the prince of the stars," viscount Candida replied earnestly: "Despite the interests of swallowing the North, their hesitation and embarrassment will not be less than other grand princes."
"We... I am afraid I have to rely on myself."
Half awkward.
Grandpa Lombard breathed out and looked at the Broken Dragon Fortress opposite, sighing:
"On their own?"
"Sassere - that woman has only 800 people, but there are at least three hundred elites of the Stars and Legion, who are both good-handed and quick-handed. You have to deal with her, and you know.

"Mu has just arrived with more than 2,000 people. Although most of them are soldiers who have never seen blood, but the man is too terrible, as long as there are five hundred loyal and fearless swords, he can be on the battlefield. Make huge troubles."
"There are thousands of vassal troops rushing to the north. Although they have been imprisoned by Aaron, they have been withdrawn from the fortress, and even have already withdrawn most of them. But Aaron’s only daughter is still in the fortress, according to the scouts. Investigating, at least 500 people have stayed."
"There is no other big man's strength. I have to take down the Broken Dragon Fortress. We will play very hard."
The words of the Grand Duke of Lombard made the three people silent for a while.

Three thousand people are crowded in a fortress,
Earl Lewan frowned.
How long can they last for the poor supply level in the north?

"The fortress was built to the standard of 10,000 people, and it has enough reserves to sustain it until the end of the day," Viscount Canbida shook his head:
"Excuse me, as a besieged city, our supply pressure is much greater than them. - Twelve years ago, the whole Exeter was behind us, and now, because the prince is coming to apologize...we The North is the same, isolated and helpless."
"Without two weeks, the end of the cold will come," Tulleha nodded and agreed with the words of Zhizhi: "I don't recommend a strong attack if I don't have a good chance."
"When the prince arrives, we can't even send troops!" Earl Lewan was not willing to say: "For another ten years, the stars will slowly recover from weakness, and other countries will free themselves from their troubles. ,and……"
He paused.
If Nuen VII can't live that time...
Exeter, maybe you have to choose the king.

Don't you give up this opportunity?
Earl Lewan hated.
None of the three people spoke.
"No," Chaman Rumba gently exhaled a mist and stared at the fortress in front: "We are Northlanders."
Rumba remembered his brother.
I remembered that he was holding his sword with blood and laughing, and he was laughing and dying.

Northerners never wait for opportunities, and they don’t give up opportunities.

Lord Lombard turned his head, and the face of the unsmiling face showed a colder chill than the weather:
"We create opportunities."

The moon has sunk.
In front of it is the Broken Dragon Fortress, and its magnificent star outline is looming under the moonlight.
Tyres looked at Sonia and Edda, who were watching and watching in the distance, turning to Cortina, surrounded by elite warriors of the Broken Dragon Fortress, and the blood warriors who were found after two wars behind her.
"Are you sure you want to go now?" Tyres frowned and looked at Cortina: "Maybe the blood magician is waiting on the way back."
Cortina is still the indifferent expression, shaking her head: "Now is the best time to go, at least the blood magician does not dare to stay too close."
"It's too risky," Tyres said earnestly. "You know, the blood magician comes for the black scorpion..."
"Believe me, since the blood magician has appeared and brought such a big trouble, her whereabouts and purpose will be taken care of... such as your secrets," Catherine said coldly: "The magical masters are terrible, but there are still forces in the world that can restrict them."
"You mean the legendary anti-magic armed?" Taylors meditated, saying: "But after all, they are rare, just a few..."
"You are still young, and many secrets are still unknown," Cottina's words made Ters scratched his head. "You just need to know that every time the magician appears in public, it is an adventure, and there will be very much after that." Silence and hiding for a long time - it’s not just the legendary anti-magic forces that threaten them."
The two looked at each other for a second.
"Well, since you insist," Taylors sighed: "You know, the polar world around you is dead, and Serena may still be hidden in the dark, and it’s a sneak peek. And after all, your is Legendary anti-magic armed..."
Thinking of Nesta and Simon, Cortina looked at her, but she looked up.
"I am eager for the appearance of Serena," the Queen of the Night reveals the hatred of the night: "As for the dark nights of the night - perhaps many forces want to get a legendary anti-magic arm, but please rest assured that people who know its value and origins Except for the terrible magician, absolutely no one has the guts to play the idea of ​​dark night."
Do not.
Cortina secretly said in her heart: Maybe the relatives of the feast are excluded.
After all, the guardian of the night is black, it can be described as the vow of all the blood.
Taylors rolled his eyes: Is it a secret that I don't know?
He nodded.
"Although our dooms today are worthy of each other, blood debts, hatred and human feelings are among them, I still hope," said Tyres. "We don't want to be enemies. Of course, it's best not to see you again in the future."
Cortina looked at him for a few seconds.
Long time Taylors raised an eyebrow.
"Do you know," just listened to Cortina silently: "Maybe we can really be allies."
Tyres widened his eyes.
"I heard Serena's words," the Queen of the Night said plainly: "The pattern of the mainland has changed. You are in the relationship with the day and night dynasty. Exeter has a good hand in the Hamble. Since the stars are destined to be enemies with John Bour, then we There are common enemies."
Tyres frowned.
Almost forgot.
This is a queen.
"After we reached the alliance, we would win over the monk leaders of the Misty Islands. Then, it is not impossible to drive away the whaling ship of Hamble and the Trade Union and turn the South End Sea into our inner sea."
"Think about the Eternal Oil that was smothered by Hamble and the Trade Federation -"
"Please, because of your dear sister," Tyres breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head. "I really have a deep fear of the word 'allies'."
"For you, for me, for me, when I grow up, let's talk about this again?"
Catherine, who was interrupted by inexplicable stunned, opened her lips and couldn't close it.
When I saw the pair of lips, Taylors somehow remembered its taste.
Keke.
Tyres patted his head and drove out the mess.
He has enough troubles and he is self-sufficient.
The night queen who has never been sneer, suddenly tilted his mouth.
Taylors was a little surprised - the first time he saw the unsmiling Cortarina smile.
"Sorry."
Tyres brows and picks: "What do you say?"
Just listen to Cortlina slowly: "When you put your neck out... my original plan is to all your blood."
Tyres is a singer: "What?"
"After all, in the previous battle, we have already formed hatred." Cortina replied with a cold expression and continued:
"As long as I solve Serena, I will go back and destroy your other subordinates and clean up the traces." Taylor's scalp chills, watching the Queen telling him to him up: "Except for Kevin Deere, no one will Know what the death of the Star Prince is."
Tyres showed an incredible look.
Is this... farmers and snakes...
"But your life is very tenacious, and you didn't die as he expected."
Cortina said coldly: "So, my attempt to kill you has failed - I think you have the right to know about this."
Tyres's face changed. He felt the weakness in his body, touched the two holes in his neck that had already closed his mouth, then looked up and looked at Cortina with a strange look and angrily.
"You..." Tyres frowned and angered: "And Selena... you really are a good sister!"
But Cortina just looked at him faintly, his eyes complex:
"No, please regard my honesty as the sincerity of the alliance - I have not concealed anything for you, nor intend to cover up anything to you, and this is something that Serena, who has been acting for a lifetime, can never do."
The Queen nodded slightly: "If this can talk about your wariness... lay the foundation for trust in our future alliances."
When Tilston was a glimpse, I didn’t know how to return.
"You told me: You used to want to kill me," he frowned. "And then, this is your honesty, hope I trust you?"
"Don't you think it's not right?" Taylors ridiculed.
"I believe that you are mature enough to tell if I am false or sincere," Cortina said plainly: "I know, I have not treated you as a child."
Tyres was a word.
But he remembered the experience of being sucked up, but he was still annoyed.
"Right, talk about this," Tyres snorted and retaliated: "Hey, is that your first kiss?"
Cortina’s pupil suddenly shrank.
Her expression turned cold in a cold, cold voice: "What do you say?"
Her purple eyes slammed into Tyres.
In the Queen's murderous eyes, Tilston felt scalp numb.
He was only slightly settled in his heart until he saw the soldiers around him and the two extremes.
"I mean - some readers want to know, cough, not right - it is a lot of people in the East mainland who seem to care about this, therefore," Tyres groaned: "I want to know if I have offended you." Place, apologize..."
"No, of course not," Cortina said indifferently: "What do you think I am a teenager girl?"
"First kiss? Childish!"
"The years I lived are longer than all your ancestors!"
This is a bit familiar.
Tyres shrugged and he was embarrassed to scratch his head.
Hey, the iceberg queen like you, will have a first love?
He looked at Cortella's indifferent ice face and spit out his tongue.
Your first love, hey, can only say... that guy is really miserable.
"Well," Taylors sighed, then raised his head and said solemnly: "I wish everything goes well."
Never see you again - he added a sentence in his heart.
Cortina stared at him silently, suddenly reaching out to him and handing out a bracelet with two fangs.
The fangs look fierce and quaint, with fine blood lines on them.
Like a past life souvenir.
Tyres widened his eyes and looked at her doubtfully.
"This is a token of the Corleone family, teeth..." Catherine kneeled down and said: "If you have a day to figure it out... take it to me."
"But with the long-term alliance, it is not a good name in human beings after all... Before you make up your mind, be sure to keep others secret. I suggest that you keep this deed in person."
Tyres frowned, and finally he sighed and grabbed the fang bracelet.
Go back and throw it away.
Taylor thought.
"Be careful on the road," he said quietly.
"Take care, the little prince of Tyres," Cortina nodded blankly and turned to her subordinates and blacks:
"Don't forget, it belongs to our inner sea."
Taylors rolled his eyes behind his back.
The next moment, the Queen of the Night and her subordinates, together with the black scorpion, disappeared into sight.
Tyres felt a second, then turned and left.
At this time, the unique secret of the blood family, flying into his ears faintly:
"But that is indeed..."
"I kissed the first of the opposite sex."
Taylors is a spirit.
He immediately got a foot!
Wye, who was scared, ran up to help him.
Not saying it is good - is this not the world of Xiao Baiwen?
He sighed and looked at the darkness that Cortarina had left.
Regardless of hatred, maybe the queen has more in common with her sister than she imagined.
Said that it is anti-routing! When you think that this article is not white, I know that it is time to write a small white story.
