Chapter 325
Saint Laurent City, Royal Palace.

It was once the place of dynastic glory, but now it is occupied by the lowly.

The third elite division of the Royal Army is stationed here. They used to be the vanguard of the invasion of the Holy Dynasty. After repeated battles, they lost a lot of high-level force and became a third-line force. Therefore, they were sent to Saint Laurent City to garrison.

If nothing unexpected happens.

It is very likely that they will be transferred back to the kingdom for reorganization after the situation in the east is stabilized. Therefore, in the past month, the entire army has lived quite comfortably, except for doing some unreasonable things, eating and sleeping.

But today is different.

According to the latest battle report, a new enemy has appeared behind the dynasty, and this enemy seems to have a rather large army, and it actually captured the Holy City overnight.

Alex Sauder was the commander of this division.

At the age of 40, he is in the rising period of his career. Although he has made enough military achievements in this aggressive war, he will inevitably be promoted to the third rank after being transferred back to China, but he is not satisfied with it.

He sincerely hopes to serve as the vanguard again and go south to pursue the remnants of the dynasty.

Regrettably, his brave and fine tactics almost defeated the troops, so the commander-in-chief rejected his request and threw him to Saint Laurent to serve as the defender, quietly waiting for the end of the war.

But he saw an opportunity.

An army of unknown origin captured Shenghui City. According to the latest information collected, the enemy's strength is about 2 people. These 2 people captured Shenghui City in just 5 hours. The combat power is quite terrible.

Based on such terrifying combat power and numbers, it is difficult to defeat the opponent relying on his current strength.

Although Alex Sood was eager for military merit, he was still able to maintain his sanity and did not attack the Holy City blindly.

In fact.

As long as Saint Laurent and the satellite cities are not captured by the enemy, then he can get enough military merit. For him, there is no such good thing in this world anymore.

Because ah.

With precautions in place, only 2 people would never even think about capturing Saint Laurent and any of its satellite cities.

The reason why Shenghui City fell was only because the enemy took it by surprise.

Alex Soder is very confident in his deduction, so he is fortunate to have the mercy of God. This time, as long as he guards Saint Laurent with peace of mind, and supports the surrounding satellite cities by the way, he can lie down and earn military merits.

"Report."

While thinking, the messenger walked into his office and reported: "My lord, the latest battle report from the front line shows that 2 troops have poured out of the Holy City and are heading towards the direction of Twilight City. Judging from the current speed, 24 In an hour, soldiers will be at the gate of the city."

"Sure enough."

Alex Sodder murmured to himself.

Whether it's the 2 troops or the Twilight City being targeted by the enemy, it's all in his calculations.

After all, the persimmons were weak, and the enemy's wishful thinking was probably the same as they did in the past. They captured satellite cities and surrounded Saint Laurent until they ran out of ammunition and food.

"It's time for you to see the strength of Saint Laurent's defense system."

Alex Soder muttered to himself: "It's ridiculous to say that, you have built a defense system for thousands of years, but you are finally using it to deal with yourself. Should I feel sad for you, or should I feel sorry for you?" Are you proud of yourself?"

After muttering to himself.

Alex Thorde prepares to send troops to support Twilight.

Because Saint Laurent is the center of the defense system and the city with the fastest support, it should arrive within 24 hours of the satellite city receiving the attack, while the other satellite cities only need to arrive within 48 hours due to the distance between them.

But at this moment, a staff officer stepped forward to suggest.

He looked at the map and said worriedly: "General, is it too risky for the main force to leave Saint Laurent to support Twilight City? What if other enemy troops attack Saint Laurent while our main force is not in the city?"

"This……"

Alex Soder frowned and said, "The enemy probably doesn't have any extra troops. Even if they recruit troops on the spot, within a few months, the new recruits will not be able to form any combat effectiveness."

Judging from the situation of the battle and the known information, the enemy's army was only 2 soldiers dead, and now that they are coming out in full force, naturally there is no extra troops to attack their Saint Laurent city.And if he doesn't send troops to reinforce Twilight City, then Twilight City may be at a loss. After all, judging from the time when Holy Glory City fell, the enemy's fighting power is quite terrifying.

"General, just in case."

The staff officer suggested again that although he also knew that the enemy had no spare troops, as a staff officer, he was obliged to take all possible situations into consideration.

"Then send a brigade to reinforce it."

Alex Soder thought about it, and decided to send a brigade to Twilight City. First, he could fulfill his obligation to provide support as needed. Second, the reinforcements from an extra brigade must be dragged to other satellite cities. The arrival of reinforcements is not a problem.

According to common sense.

If you want to capture a city guarded by ten thousand people, you can't do it without three times the strength.

Now Twilight City's defenders are 6000, plus his reinforcements of 5000, which is enough for Twilight City to last until reinforcements from other satellite cities arrive in 48 hours.

Moreover, sending a missing brigade would not do any harm to Saint Laurent's city defense.

At that time, if the enemy took the opportunity to sneak attack, he could also drag reinforcements from other satellite cities to arrive and surround the enemy here.

But just as he was giving the order, an orderly walked in.

"Report."

The orderly said out of breath: "The commander of the Twilight City defenders asked our army for help. Please send troops to support as soon as possible. If you go late, Twilight City may not be safe. The enemy's commander is a 'war devil'."

"what?!"

That last sentence startled Alex Sound.

The kingdom's war threat list is not something anyone can get on if they want to. Veigar, as the fifth-ranked terror, not only makes them, brigadier generals, afraid of him, but even the kingdom's generals will show 100% of their strength treat.

No matter how conceited Alexis Thord was.

He thought that there was still a gap between him and Vega, the fifth war devil on the list of war threats, and after hearing the news, he finally understood why the city of Holy Glory fell within five hours.

All of this is probably the work of that devil.

At this moment, Alex Thord and the commander of Twilight City felt unprecedented pressure.

If this devil is allowed to take down satellite cities one after another, then Alex Soder can't guarantee whether Saint Laurent can persist until the main force of his own port city arrives.

"Order."

Alex Soder didn't care about other things, he immediately ordered: "The 2nd and 3rd regiments stay behind, and the other troops follow me to support Twilight City. We have already lost Shenghui City, and this second satellite city must not be lost. "

Whether it is due to the obligation of support, or based on the fear of Veigar.

Alex Thord finally chose to send troops to support Twilight City. After all, the shadow of the famous tree, the army commanded by Veigar, he did not dare to underestimate it anyway. Just sending a brigade to support must not be enough.

Alex Soder had decided.

He wants to be [-]% vigilant and block all Vega's troops outside the gate of Twilight City, waiting for the support of the main force from the port city to arrive.
