Vol 3 Chapter 49: Internal conflict

Five years in the magic calendar, Amy, one of the heads of the five major A-level mercenary regiments, once publicly criticized the way of life of the residents of Fanos.
It is more regrettable that His remarks are not correct, at least not completely correct.
There are no fewer than 20 ethnic groups living on the Faranos. Among the more powerful races are: Orcs, Bears, Centaurs, Humans, Snakes, Dragons, and Werewolves.
Among these races, the worst in terms of single combat power is the werewolf race. They are the shortest and worst weapon race in the entire continent.
In order to guarantee the right to multiply races, women of the Werewolves carry pillows and sheets everywhere, and
cross-talk
with any male werewolf who intends to have sexual anytime, anywhere-note that even the other races of the Faranos mainland Sexual life is called copulation.
Therefore, everything that Amy pointed out at the time only happened within the werewolves.
Of course, not all of these faults are in His Excellency Amy. After all, these materials come from the Imperial Library.
―― 《Historical Regret》 ※※※
"Little white face, you die!"
"Fuck you uncle."
The orcs born and born in Fanos are extremely simple. In their eyes, the curse words are only limited to "dry your grandfather!", "His grandma's", etc. Under the explanation of human companions, the orcs finally understand the city walls What the kid said just now, and just thinking about how to treat Amy's orc warriors after their captives, scrambled and rushed the little white face on the city wall with their right middle finger. More than a dozen impulsive orc warriors threw down their shields and rushed out with a one-and-a-half-meter long mace.
"Shoot!" Xiao Bai said coldly on the wall.
The prairie elf bow bowed slightly, and more than 10 orc warriors rushed out of the team immediately fell. The gaps they exposed were also subjected to intensive shooting of green arrow feathers. More warriors fell into the pool of blood.
A few harsh words from the opponent cost at least one-sixth of the soldiers in the Fanos army. Seeing this, Norton ’s blood, which was also boiling, calmed down quickly. The only purpose of those words just now is probably the case. If you say a few harsh words You can kill a considerable number of enemies, I am afraid you will do the same.
The orcs' battle shields quickly closed, and the carriage moved slowly until it finally became a ring-shaped protective ring.
"Your Excellency Amy, now I'm in the city, I heard that your devil and martial arts are both of the same level. They dare to fight me in front of the city?" Norton held a one-meter mace with one hand.
"Is this necessary? The weather is so good. Isn't it more poetic to talk about the geographical style like this?" It is better to hide the ugliness. Norton's little trick is not worth mentioning in front of human wise men.
"Don't you have the humiliation of the brave? Don't you want to create warfare for your country?" Norton continued to stimulate Amy.
"This, am I necessary?" The irritated person showed an inexplicable expression on his face, even more ashamed: "The Imperial Army and I only have the relationship between employment and employment, and the mission book given to us is very clear and the protection is broken Nothing in Ice Harbor City mentioned going out to fight. The Empire did not pay me a penny for this. "
"Are you ... are you not going to avenge your men?"
"Norton, don't you just want me to go out and attack you? You haven't read the art of human warfare. The strong show their enemies and weak. This is the most basic knowledge. Do you think I will be confused by the illusion of hundreds of people in your area? ? This, your Excellency is too funny. "Amy scoffed at the wall. "The one who is anxious between the two of us must not be me. The reinforcements from the imperial capital arrived at the latest four days later, and the reinforcements from the southern part of the empire arrived at the latest ten days. At that time, as soon as I took over the city defense, I could bring mercenaries The regiment went back to the empire to collect the money. After all, I really thank you for your kindness, and repeatedly achieved the prestige of the victory of the small mercenary regiment. By the way, I do n’t know if you mind if you are a Fanos soldier. , Income must be meager ... "
"Don't insult my loyalty, I won't betray." Amy's words touched Norton Virtue's bottom line and was immediately rejected by the Orcs.
"No, no. You misunderstood. The small mercenary group is a joint-stock private group. At present, I am the largest shareholder and own 35% of the shares. This person next to me is Daqingshan. He holds 30% of the shares. 35% of the shares are in the hands of Uncle Chi Hanfeng, Chi Aotian, Horns, etc. The only purpose of our operation of this group is to make money, and the model of our earning money is very simple, now it is to protect the city, every In this successful defense, we can all earn more than 100,000 gold coins. I am ready to give you a 5% share of friendship, so that you can also be called a partner of the small mercenary group, so that every time we defend a new city After that, you will lead the soldiers to attack. Of course, it is not a real fight. There is a large party between us. Then, when the official soldiers of the empire come, we will retreat, so ... haha, every time we can earn It ’s a lot of money ... I ’ll give you a dividend, how about it? "His Excellency Amy seems to have forgotten his harsh words.
"You ..." Norton was overwhelmed. As a half-orc, he had never heard of the concept of shares or partners. Amy really didn't understand the economic development of Fanos. When talking about partnership, you must It is a capital society, and Fanos has entered a communist society. Therefore, these concepts have disappeared without development.
"Your Excellency Amy, you are too clever ... But, perhaps it is a response from your human beings: being clever is wrong. I am sorry, Your Excellency, I have made the greatest possible fight for you human beings." The head of the North Army ’s Third Army waved a signal, and a signal flare up into the sky to make a continuous explosion, and the carriage square moved slowly and randomly.
Soon, there were flying pigeons in the sky, and the news quickly gathered in the hands of Amy: a large number of warships appeared in the offshore of the ice-breaking port, and Barbas ordered the troops to sink the fishing vessels in the offshore to block the other side from attacking the coast.
In the direction of the mainland highway, at least three teams of thousands of people gathered to drive towards the ice-breaking port.
A force appeared 20 miles south of the ice-breaking port, and the number was no less than 5,000.
Horns got the news one step earlier than Amy. There was no need to hide the vulture swordsman camp in the snow, and nearly a hundred vulture swordsmen soared around the city to report updated news at any time. Already went to support the coast; the Berserker Battalion took over the defense of the Great Warrior Battalion, and the Great Swordsmen Battalion all boarded the city walls; the residents recruited in the city to assist the defenders had set up a cauldron to prepare boiling water to defend against enemy attacks; Si himself and Chi Aotian hurried to the city gate together.
The white sun is close to the sky, and the rising dust can be seen vaguely on the south side of the city. The sharp eyes of the grassland elves can even distinguish the long dragons traveling on the mainland highway.
After 10,000 soldiers, the ground was raging.
It is difficult for people who have not really experienced war to imagine the sorrow and pressure brought by the army. In the distance, not only the soldiers composed of steel, but also the striking is the huge siege equipment pushed and pulled by the soldiers. The snake-like army was spreading news on both sides.
Most of the soldiers of the small mercenary regiment have not experienced war, let alone the residents of the ice-breaking port that helped to defend the city on the city walls, and their faces are pale-so many enemies, let alone fight, even if they stand alone one by one Move, let the knife cut and kill without knowing when to kill them all. Moreover, the armor on these enemies is obviously much stronger than the soldiers of the small mercenary regiment. Some brain-minded people are already thinking about how to survive if the city is broken.
The main cadres of the small mercenary regiment are not much better. Amy and others have never experienced such a large-scale battle of defending the city. In the battle of Xilin Island, after the Lion River, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack; As for the ice-breaking port, the countries of the Eminor mainland have no awareness of coastal defense, so the wall of the floating ice port is incomparable to the inland city. The city is only 12 meters high, and it can also defend some small thieves. The enemy in front of me is afraid of being Tens of thousands, can you keep the reinforcements ... Almost every teenager bit his lip tightly.
"Strange--" Horns took a breath. "Why are there many irregular soldiers in the enemy?" The dwarves have a farther distance than ordinary humans.
Amy and Daqingshan's nerves were immediately tightened. In the Eminor Continental National War, civilians rarely participated in the war. Even if someone in a family was called into the war by the nobility, the warring parties would not harm their families. The empires have a long history, and they know quite well the position of the people in the country. Moreover, conflicts often break out on the national borders, and the countries are also very afraid of being retaliated against by the enemy.
It was not without precedents that drove the enemy ’s residents to attack the city. 780 years ago, when the desert people attacked the town of Dongping in the Huayu Plain, they intimidated 200,000 residents with the army. As a result, Dongping ’s 30,000 defenders killed 20,000 and the civilians killed in the city seemed to die. Up to 150,000. In the end, other imperial alliances on the mainland attacked the desert from four directions, and at least 300,000 desert soldiers and civilians became victims of revenge.
Behind the regular army, civilians have assembled into a large army. At a glance, it is estimated that the total number is between one or two squadrons. Among the civilians, there are a considerable number of simple siege vehicles, catapults, and long ladders, most of which are They are middle-aged and middle-aged men, and a small number are elderly. Around the civilian army are the soldiers who maintain order. Looking at the soldiers with mucus hanging on their mouths and the bright dazzling swords in the hands of the soldiers, you should know that these residents are not willing.
All the faces on the city wall were black, including the residents of the ice-breaking port that assisted the city. At any time, it is the duty of soldiers, mercenaries and imperial civilians to fight desperately with the aliens and imperial enemies, but it is no one to stand on the head of the city and throw stones at the imperial residents who are wrapped under the city. hopefully. The hearts of the people are always fleshy, especially residents of the Port of Ice Break. As a commercial city, all the food and other daily supplies come from the smaller towns around. Maybe the gray-haired old people under the city had fed their fruits when they were young. Maybe you have your own family or even your own biological parents below. All residents stopped their work and lay on the walls to look out.
On the city walls, Amy and others have felt a sharp drop in morale, and some small mercenary soldiers also showed anxious expressions on their faces.
The enemy did not immediately attack the city. The heavy infantry took a position 1000 meters away from the wall. The centaur archers came out from the gap of the heavy infantry formation. In front of them were human crossbowmen; they should have been arranged on the wings The troops are arranged at the end. This should not be the tactical arrangement of the enemy chief. No matter what the mount is, after a long-distance bump in the sea, if it is not revised for about a month, it will not be able to put into real combat.
The wings of the team were werewolf light infantry. These little guys held shields and daggers and scimitars, intimidating, shoving, and threatening the human inhabitants in front of them to the city walls. Looking at the increasingly tall walls and the dazzling and bright weapons on the walls, the unrest in the civilian population is changing rapidly. Feeling this counter-current, the cold weapons in the hands of werewolf soldiers almost lay on the backs of human civilians.
Norton's position gradually receded into the big team. At this time, Amy and Hornes were almost impossible even if they wanted to stop it.
The commander of the Fanos Legion was obviously a master. After all the troops were stabilized, a blue flag was lifted off from the camp. The werewolves fighters suddenly increased their movements and waved their weapons, blood between the werewolves and humans. The fog suddenly floated, and the miserable cry of humans rang over the ice-breaking port. Like waves, the humans in the back pushed the front toward the city wall and stumbled.
At the same time, the two archer troops followed the civilians towards the city wall with a clear intention. After a moment, heavy infantry also pressed from both wings.
The catapult made a heavy trembling sound. Stones with a diameter of about 25 cm hit the wall like raindrops. The high ladder lifted out of the heavy infantry formation pointed directly at the top of the wall. Three large rushing vehicles followed at the end. A: Dongcheng Gate.
The chiefs of the small mercenary corps on the city wall now had a thought floating in their hearts: Chess lost one. I didn't expect the enemy to change from a sneak attack of a small unit into a frontal siege battle. I thought that the enemy had landed on a nearby beach a few days late. Sadly, in order to fulfill his dream of shutting down and fighting dogs, the small mercenary group did not allow the knight eagle to lift off to avoid exposing his strength. It now appears that the enemy not only knew that the small mercenary regiment was keeping the city, but probably the organization and number of the small mercenary regiment are now very clear. Now we can only hope that the reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible.
There are several common methods of siege. Although Amy and others have not seen it with their own eyes, they have written in various textbooks with quite detailed information, and there are several ways to counter siege. In the end, the city's attack and defense battle is actually three points: combat power; supply; reinforcements. Under the guards of the city walls, the more than 4,000 armed forces belonging to the small mercenary regiment should be able to withstand about 20,000 troops for about 10 days.
Amy paid attention to the reflections on the city walls. The reaction of the small mercenary regiments was still normal. The magic swordsmen recited the magic defense shield to resist the intensive stone rain. The big swordsmen propped up the huge cowhide shields on each side. On the crater; the soldiers of the Sword Warrior Battalion in Bingbing Port are almost all white, rather than defending rather than coping, they are more looking at the civilians under the city, do not think about it, a considerable part of them are Coming from the small villages and towns around the Bingbing Port; the residents who helped were better, cursing the enemy while bending over to hug firewood from under the city wall.
"Please ask Count Linka to come and see me immediately." Arranging Daqingshan to take charge of the frontal wall, Amy ordered him to come down the city quickly along the ladder.
Soon, not only Count Linka of the Knights, but also Guigui, the head of the Swordsman Battalion, arrived in a hurry.
"Your Excellency Amy, most of the swordsmen in the swordsman camp come from the surrounding villages and towns, so it is extremely unfavorable for the army. I suggest to quickly withdraw the swordsman camp from the city walls." As a senior junior empire officer in the Empire, Gui Gui understands the morale The importance of being trapped in a lonely city, there is also a layer of subconsciousness that is not clear. Arrange for these soldiers to defend the city. If an emergency occurs, they may give up the city.
Amy nodded silently: "You're right, I'm thinking of a way, they still need to persist for half an hour."
Having said that, Amy turned to Count Linka: "My Excellency, we must restore morale, so I have a plan that needs your support. First, I will arrange the small mercenary knight battalion to kill from the south gate of the broken ice port. Go out and cut in from the right side of the enemy. Of course, this is just a decoy. After the two armies contacted, they immediately returned to the south gate of the ice port. After pulling part of the enemy ’s mobile unit, the mad eagle swordsman battalion will attack the army; at this time, I need your help. The mad knight battalion of the noble and the small mercenary regiment killed from the north gate of the Icebreaker, cut through the cracks of civilians and enemies. Behind you is the large mercenary battalion of the small mercenary regiment. The civilians returned from the north gate, after the noble and mad knight camps were cut off, and at this time, the mad eagle swordsman battalion and other small mercenary battalions would disturb the enemy formation to the greatest extent, so that they would not see our true intentions. Your opinion. "
Although Count Linka is a few years older than Amy, and the rank is two ranks higher than Amy, but in terms of position, Amy is exactly the military superior of Count Linka.
Such politeness is also unacceptable to Amy. Earl Linka, who is also a young man, and the heads of the small mercenary regiment have differences on many events, and the strong pressure will inevitably bring a rebound.
"No!" Count Linka's veto utterly shocked everyone around him: "Knight's Battalion of the Icebreaker is a direct unit of the city's master. Without the master's command, we will not execute any orders."
Amy's eyebrows were tightened tightly. There was only a distance of 1,000 meters outside the city. After a few minutes of delay, the crying civilian flesh and blood would fall on the city wall, and the asphalt, boiling water, boiling oil rolled down, even if it repelled. After the enemy's first siege, the impact on morale is extremely great.
Amy silently turned out Chiaotian, who was in black, to the ground. The cold tone immediately returned the warm spring to the cold winter: "According to the laws of the Imperial Ministry, during the war, all military and paramilitary forces were stationed in the highest military. The officer dispatched. There is only one offender. "
"Is there such a thing? I don't know!" Linka's blue-green eyes suddenly shrank, and his white hands consciously held the long sword tightly.
"3!" Chi Aotian suddenly said a number in his tight lips, and his black eyes drooped coldly at his nose.
"I must go back and ask the opinion of the city master!" Rinka's performance is more of a provocation to the authority of his immediate boss than the respect of the city master. Most of the Cavaliers are the heirs of local nobles. In the meantime, ordinary civilians are just servants of the family, and it is not worth it for these residents.
"2!" The teenager in black didn't seem to expect a reply at all.
"The duty of the City Lord Knight Squad is to guard the City Lord and the city, not to assist defense-" Linka's voice was interrupted by the sound of a long sword.
"You ..." The head of the young nobleman was oppressed by the younger boy's momentum. The cold crisis deeply hurt his nerves. The knight's sword was also pulled out of the sheath, and several knights behind him quickly pulled out the wear. sword.
"1!" The last number spit out from the slightly dry lips of the boy in black.
Holding a long sword and being among the archers of several men, Count Linka was a little bit emboldened: "I am an imperial noble. If your lord dares to stab me, I will surely be imperial and military ..."
Chi Aotian's slender eyes squinted slightly, and the black long sword drew a beam of electricity in the air to pierce Linka's chest.
Despite being threatened by the person, a high prince such as Earl ca n’t believe that someone really dared to assassinate himself in front of the public. In a panic, the long sword violently blocked the sharp tip of the black lightning, two on each side The knight immediately stood up side by side and used his shoulder to protect the boss behind him.
The speed of the black lightning suddenly increased, and the tip of the sword quickly vibrated across the two knights' swords. A white mark suddenly appeared on the neck on the right side of the left knight. After a pause, blood spewed out from the white mark. The plate armor sprayed with blood is embossed with a baronial title logo of at least one hundred years old ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The knight covered his wound in horror. I ca n’t believe this sword is true, thinking of Chi Aotian What to say. The black sword cut the large artery and throat at the same time. The dying person has lost the right to speak, and large groups of blood foam squirted from his mouth. After a few breaths, the knight's tall body collapsed to the ground.
The knight on the right seemed to be more fortunate. At this time, a heartbreaking scream broke out. Four fingers and a long sword landed on the ground at the same time. The broken fingers twisted on the ground and quickly turned white.
The murderer apparently did n’t want this to be a warning. The stride stepped forward, his body suddenly sinking, and the black sword passed through the armpit of the right knight and pierced into the vest under the right rib of Earl Linka, and then the sword suddenly Provoked and pulled back, Count Linka ’s body was lifted up in the air, the guards behind him had been frightened by the scene just now, and evaded, the Earl Count fell on the wall, and when the body fell off the wall, it was lost The meaning of rescue.
The black sword was turning into the sheath, and the cold voice of the boy in black sounded again: "According to the wartime regulations, disobey the commander, cut!"
The black eyes swept coldly over the guards of the surviving Knight Squadron, not paying attention to the ticking liquid just under the knight's armor. The teenager seemed to happen the same, flashing to Amy's back again.
Not only the knights of the Icebreaker, the numerous mercenaries of the small mercenary regiment, and even the chief officers did not expect the black boy ’s means to be so violent that Amy and Daqingshan had no chance to stop, the two The knight had fallen dead.
Amy took a deep breath. At this time, it would be superfluous to say anything else about this matter, and Chi Aotian was indeed implemented in accordance with the Imperial Wartime regulations.
The relevant troops mobilized quickly, and the elf archers on the city walls had begun shooting green feathers at the werewolves.
