Become a martial girl

Chapter 337 Kindness and Cruelty

After watching chess, look at people.Edward stared at the commoner girl whose face he had almost forgotten, and frowned slightly.

"Sisko, Linda. What the hell is going on here (pointing to the board)?"

Sisko shrugged and smiled helplessly: "Return to Your Highness, that's what happened."

Dubo also came forward and glanced at the chessboard.After pondering for a while, he murmured: "Fortunately... Knight Sisko, you can at least keep a little bit of face as the number one chess player in the kingdom. Black's chariot, knight, and prime minister have all been killed. You kill one. The queen isn't on the board either."

Sisko and Linda looked at each other for Du Bo's encouragement, but the expressions on their faces were extremely embarrassing.After the two of them bit each other's ears, Linda walked up to Uncle Du and said softly, "Actually... from the very beginning of this chess game, we asked that girl to take the chariot, knight, prime minister, and queen." Lost. If it wasn't like this...maybe we would have lost even worse..."

Du Bo's complexion changed, and he repeated Linda's words in Edward's ear.Now, Edward looked at Aiya who was comforting each other with his younger sister in shock again, and deeply remembered the girl's face in his mind.

However, remember to remember.Edward is not in the mood to manage a commoner who has become a chess master within a year.He called Sisko and Linda to sit down around the table. Aiya didn't remember her identity until the three of them sat down. She hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, came forward to clean up the chessboard, and poured a pot Tea, poured a cup for everyone respectfully.

"What's the current situation?" Edward said straight to the point, not in the mood to drink tea.

Sisko nodded and waved his hand.Aiya nodded, took a strategic map around Yinyue City from the bookshelf at the side, and spread it out on the table.Afterwards, she took out many flags and placed them all over the map.During the placement process, Aiya never once asked Sisko for advice on where the flag should be placed, as if she was not a maid, but a general who commanded thousands of troops and knew the situation on the battlefield well.

Sisko and Linda didn't have any special expressions on Aiya's move to place the flag, as if it was normal.Edward and Du Bo looked at the restored strategic map, but gasped and stopped talking.

"Your Highness, this is the map of the current battle situation." Sisko took the baton from Aiya and pointed at the map, "As you can see, there are 98 troops deployed in the city of Yinyue. Including cavalry two There are 100 people and [-] magicians. In addition, there are more than [-] million civilians in this city. If the situation is really wrong, the militia can be drawn from the civilians to fight."

The number of 100 million did not make Edward feel relieved, but made him face pain.Everyone knows that the combat effectiveness of untrained militiamen is too low. How many men can really be drawn out of the 100 million civilians?

Sisko noticed Edward's expression, but based on his duties, he continued to explain the map.

"Silver Moon is surrounded by towering mountains. Due to this natural danger, we have not allowed Louwell's army to enter the mountains so far. The three entrances and exits leading to the outside world are each guarded by [-] soldiers. The largest road is the "Gate of Blessing" 'Arranged [-] troops."

On the map, the double-sword flags representing Luwell's army are all gathered in the north, northwest, and west of the mountain range. The three silver moon flags on the three entrances and exits appear to be weak and precarious.

After talking about Silver Moon, let's talk about Luwell again.

"According to the report from the scouts, there are a total of 22 Luwell troops who came to attack the city. They attacked from three roads. The general who led the army was General Del Saladin. The deployment configuration was 12 orc warriors, [-] sword knights, Thirty thousand cavalry, five thousand wolf cavalry, three thousand magicians, two hundred orc mages, one hundred synthetic beast knights, some siege ladders, and some battering rams."

"In terms of grain and grass transportation, it's a pity that the Luwell Army has occupied all the main roads from Lake Missouri to here, and grain and grass are transported from the empire all the time. Therefore, they can at least last for more than a year."

The blood-red double-sword banner formed a scarlet patch on the outside of the mountain range.It's so red that it's hard to keep your eyes open.Looking at the red, Nia couldn't help shrinking behind her sister, holding hands tightly with Aiya, not daring to let go.

Edward looked at the current situation with a sad face.Seventy thousand versus 22... The enemy army is more than three times the size of our army.And well equipped and well tuned.There is also an excellent general dispatching... Damn it!If Teacher Sardinia doesn't leave!If Mr. Sardinia is here!The 22 army in this area is nothing to worry about!But now... who in Silver Moon can match Teacher Sardin's military ability to command this battle and lead us to the road to victory?
Edward held his head and pulled his hair tightly with both hands.He is not a tactical genius, or in other words, he simply does not have the ability to lead an army to fight.In the beginning, he came to the city wall out of enthusiasm, wanting to discuss the situation of the battle.But once the battle situation really came before his eyes, his mind was blank and he couldn't think of anything.

Linda looked at her husband, then at the prince in front of her, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, please don't worry. At least Yinyue is still safe now, and none of the three entrances and exits has been lost. Just wait for His Majesty and the First Prince After the tactical meeting, I think there must be a way to break through this tight encirclement..."

"Dangdangdang---------!!!"

The harsh alarm bell suddenly entered the command room!The three people around the table immediately stood up, and Aiya hugged Nia and shrank into the corner, not daring to say anything!Soon, a soldier pushed open the door and rushed in——

"The enemy army has been found! The gate of praise in the north has been breached! Five thousand cavalry appeared in the field of vision!"

"how is this possible!!!"

Sisko slammed the table: "The Gate of Praise is narrow and can be regarded as the most difficult gate to attack. How could it be captured so quickly?!"

The soldier did not answer Sisko's question, but continued to report: "In addition to the [-] cavalry, there are about [-] to [-] civilians coming from the direction of the Gate of Praise! They are being slaughtered by the cavalry!"

Without saying a word, Edward pushed the soldier away and rushed out.The two magicians and Du Bo followed closely behind.After thinking about it, Aiya also carried Nia's trembling cat out of the command room and came to the edge of the city wall.

Among the snowflakes, people's cries interweave into a terrifying melody.I saw a large black crowd rushing towards the gate of Yinyue.Behind them are five thousand cavalry waving spears!Their speed is not very fast, rather than killing civilians, they are driving them away.It's just that those who ran slowly died under the spear without exception.

Blood stained the ground under the snowflakes red.The soldiers defending the city all bent their bows and set up arrows, aiming down.But those cavalry were mixed among fifty to sixty thousand civilians, how could these soldiers shoot arrows?

"Damn it! Open the city gate quickly!!!"

Edward let out an angry roar, holding Senadella with his long hands, and the "Emperor" in the form of a "giant" was out of its sheath.

However, Sisko and Linda did not respond immediately.Instead, Linda sacrificed magic immediately, using the snowflakes in the air to condense a white bird, and quickly flew to the imperial city.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and open the door!!!"

The civilians have already come under the city wall, and they desperately slammed on the city gate, shouting loudly for the people inside to open the door of life.But in exchange, the soldiers inside blocked the door desperately, and refused to open it no matter what.

"Your Highness, if you open the door now, it will be like letting Yinyue fall immediately! I now know why the Gate of Songs was captured so quickly. Now, please wait for your majesty's reply."

Sisko's answer did not calm Edward down, but made him even angrier!This anger made his breathing messy, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth abruptly.When the two magicians met Du Bo, they hurried forward to help him.

"I don't want you to help me! Open the door! I am ordering you as Lanxi Demuer, open the door immediately! As long as they don't let them attack the city, it's ok? Give me five hundred spearmen, and watch me stop all these cavalry Outside the gate!"

Amidst the roar, Edward dragged his saber and was about to rush down the city wall.However, at this moment, an owl flew from the direction of the castle and landed on Linda's shoulder.

After the owl whispered a few words in Linda's ear, it disappeared with a "poof".Linda quickly waved the staff in her hand, and a cage formed by a water curtain immediately trapped Edward tightly.

"Your Highness. Your Majesty has issued an order... not to open the door."

"brute!!!"

Edward roared and waved the Cynadra in his hand!With just one strike, Linda's water curtain cage was cut open.

"Your Highness! Please calm down! I hope you can think clearly, do you want to save these 100 to [-] people, or save the [-] million people in Yinyue?! Now is not the time to act emotionally! As a royal family, although you care about People are a kind of virtue, but sometimes you have to be hard-hearted! This is a war, a war that will collapse if you don’t do it right!!!”

Sisko's words were like a hammer, beating his heart hard.Finally, the hand holding the sword stopped waving, and the steps towards the stairs finally stopped.With tears in his eyes, he walked back to the edge of the city wall full of guilt, looking at the pair of people below who were begging him in both directions, and were pierced by spears in the next second.

His heart is broken...

"Roar--------------!!!"

At this moment, a white shadow suddenly jumped out from a rugged mountain range, drew a white line across the battlefield, and rushed towards the five thousand cavalrymen wielding butcher knives...
