Baron Adams stood up: "I'll go!"
Count Dumbledore: "Okay, let Baron Adams lead three thousand horses to rescue Viscount Oliver. Without further ado, go quickly."
"Yes!"
Baron Adams went out with the earl's warrant.
"Everyone, if Baron Adams goes to the rescue, then Viscount Oliver will be fine. Next, we will focus on how to repel the enemy."
Everyone frowned when they heard this. Bailey City had long focused on the sea and neglected the construction of the land checkpoints. In peaceful times it was not a problem, but once the war started, they would suffer too much from opponents.
Soldiers on the sea wore civilian robes and used light weapons such as scimitars and swords. However, the land troops wore armor and used long-handled weapons such as spears and swords or heavy weapons. Soldiers could adapt to land combat, but the change in combat methods was very drastic.
As a result, the huge Bailey city did not have a land army that could be used.
Bruce looked at the people who hadn't spoken for a long time, and said helplessly: "Father, I suggest that the city be defended by the city wall, which is tall and strong. Additionally, the city has enough food for soldiers, so the enemy can not attack for a while. As long as we persist until spring, the river would be unblocked, then we can let the murlocs harass their logistical supplies …"
Count Dumbledore sighed, "That's the way it is. If there is nothing wrong, let's go with it."
All the nobles in Bailey city got up and went out, leaving only one ogre holding the fruit on the fruit plate and eating remained–Hesai.
Bruce ignored the rude ogre, looked at the back of the crowd, and frowned: "Father, I think we have made things simple. Although Count Lucas is greedy for money, he is not just looking at immediate interests."
Earl Dumbledore lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said, "Yes, although he doesn't have a very admirable character, I have to admit that he is a long-sighted businessman and a powerful warrior."
Bruce frowned, "So that got me thinking, is his goal just those trivial gold coins in the village?"
The Earl and his son were lost in thought.
The ogre chief wiped his palms on his clothes and burped.
Garu: "I think his goal is the land."
The Earl and his son were taken aback upon hearing this: "The land?"
Garu: "Yes, land. The Lord often said that as a lord, the most precious wealth one could have is land. With land, everything will follow. Therefore, I think the goal of a human lord would be the same."
Bruce: "But, Count Lucas should understand that he can't occupy these lands. As long as the spring starts, he has to retreat immediately."
Garu: "If they can destroy Bailey City in the winter, then it will be fine."
Bruce: "It's impossible. The city walls of Bailey City are tall and there are many crossbow cannons. He can't destroy it after a whole year, not to mention a winter."
"Furthermore, the two of them have their own troubles. Although Viscount Leo is big, they are next to the barbarians in the north. In winter, the barbarians often go south to plunder because of shortages in food. Leonardo Leo will not stay for too long. Relying on the strength of Count Lucas's family alone, it is absolutely impossible to take Bailey City."
"Nothing is impossible. Among the three, Bailey City is the weakest in combat power, but it is the richest. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to help myself from taking a bite off this pie. Anyway, there is no loss."
"Damn it, if Master Jax hadn't gone to protect his cousin, how could they dare to be so arrogant! Wait, loss?!"
Bruce suddenly thought of something, unfolded the map, and his expression changed: "No! Baron Adams is in danger. If Earl Lucas wants to Bailey, the first step is to find ways to weaken our strength."
"In addition, all of them have cavalry and they are extremely mobile. If he suddenly emerges when Baron Adams and the Leo family go to war, Baron Adams will suffer heavy losses and even risk the entire army being wiped out."
"If you lose these two high-ranking fighters and a large number of cavalry, Bailey City ..."
...
Yongwang Town.
Low wall.
Viscount Oliver pierced the throat of an enemy soldier with his sword and saw the enemy who was constantly climbing through the ladder and his exhausted soldiers.
"Warriors! Hold on! Our reinforcements are coming soon!"
When the soldiers heard the words, there was a little hope in their hearts, and a force came out of thin air in their tired bodies.
Viscount Oliver looked at the bloody hundreds of soldiers, fighting against 10,000 enemies with 500 troops, killing more than 300 people, and repelling nearly ten waves of attacks, persisting for nearly half a day. What else could he ask for? Woolen cloth?
At this time, at the end of the soldiers' vision, a group of human cavalry appeared, ecstatic in their hearts, they shouted, "Reinforcements are here!"
Soon, Baron Adams arrived on the battlefield. With the impact of the cavalry, he broke through the enemy's phalanx.
Viscount Oliver quickly opened the door and joined the reinforcements.
"Quick! Get on the horse and rush out together."
A group of people was riding horses, running in the direction of Bailey City, when suddenly a group of enemy cavalry appeared to the side.
When Baron Adams saw the hyena headed by Count Lucas, he was shocked, "No! There is an ambush, rush out!"
Viscount Oliver looked at the encirclement gradually closing, and sighed, "You retreat, I will cover!"
"Viscount! You ..."
"Needless to say, he is here to find me."
Baron Adams thought of the grievances between the Oliver family and the Lucas family and gritted his teeth.
"Retreat!"
Count Lucas looked at Viscount Oliver who had stopped, and he stopped as expected. The other cavalry bypassed the two and continued to chase.
Finally, there were only two people left in the field.
Under the fierce snowstorm, two nobles with deep feuds of blood, riding their horses, stared at each other.
Count Lucas was holding the upper hand and smiled triumphantly, "Old friend, long time no see, today, I will send you to reunite with your sons."
Viscount Oliver knew that he was doomed to escape, and retorted forcefully, "I will say hello to the old Count Lucas on your behalf."
"Shut up! You are not qualified to say my father's name! You despicable villain!"
Count Lucas's expression turned red with anger, he drew his sword and drove his horse towards Viscount Oliver.
Even if Viscount Oliver knew that he was not the opponent of the Hyena of the master rank, he did not lose the courage to draw the sword.
The two staggered, half of the long sword fell on the ground, and Earl Lucas continued to chase his horse towards the direction of the army without looking back.
Viscount Oliver held the broken sword in one hand and covered his neck with the other, blood poured from his fingers, as he slowly fell back from his horse, closing his eyes forever.
The corpse was gradually covered by heavy snow.
...
Baron Adams used secret skills to rush out of a way out of the enemy's siege, and with only half of the remaining men and horses, he continued to flee towards Bailey.
However, after running for a long time, the horses on their side had already suffered from exhaustion, but the enemy had been replenishing their energy for a long time, and their mounts had sufficient stamina.
Seeing the enemies chasing after him in the rear, Adams was anxious.
Suddenly, he saw the monster army appearing in front of him, and he was relieved.
"Quick, bypass them!"
Baron Adams led the cavalry around the monster army and let the chasing soldiers face the monster army directly.
