So Lord Green made temporary defensive arrangements, and Lighthouse City entered the highest state of combat readiness to strictly guard against enemy attacks while waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
Time passed slowly, and it was twelve o'clock at noon.Neither Thomas nor the wolf mercenary group showed signs of attacking the city. Everyone was relieved, but the reinforcements did not arrive, and everyone continued to wait patiently.
Another hour passed, and at one o'clock in the noon, the reinforcements still hadn't arrived, and everyone couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
At two o'clock, the reinforcements still hadn't arrived, and everyone became even more anxious, worried that there might be something wrong with the reinforcements.
By three o'clock, reinforcements still hadn't arrived.
In the meeting room, Lord Green and the generals and civil servants here are already very anxious.He clearly said he would arrive at noon, so there was no reason to be so late.
City Lord Green paced back and forth, anxiously saying, "Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?"
Bart guessed: "Did they delay their departure?"
Jesse, the captain of the first brigade, frowned and said, "There's no reason. They must know that the later the time is, the more dangerous Beacon City will be. So it's impossible for it to be so late."
A general said: "How about we send someone to see where they go?"
Lord Green was about to nod his head when a soldier rushed in in a panic and shouted, "Report! Report!"
Lord Green recognized this as a soldier guarding the south gate.
The south gate of Lighthouse City faces the country, and domestic reinforcements come from this direction, so this soldier probably reported the arrival of the reinforcements!
City Lord Green immediately said joyfully, "Is it the reinforcements?"
However, the soldier's face was full of panic and he said: "It is coming! But the reinforcements are two kilometers away from the south gate, and they are confronting each other!"
The generals were suddenly surprised.
Lord Green said in surprise, "How is that possible?"
The soldier said anxiously: "It's true! The 1500 reinforcements led by General Harry of Daofu City confronted the 820 reinforcements from the other four cities!"
All the generals were in disbelief, and one general shouted loudly: "Nonsense! Do you know what it is to lie about military information?"
The soldier said anxiously: "I am not the only one who saw it, all the brothers around me saw it!"
Lord Green immediately stood up and said to everyone, "Let's go and see!"
So Lord Green, Shirley and the generals immediately set off for the south gate.When they arrived at the south gate, they climbed up the city wall, and sure enough, they saw two armies confronting each other two kilometers away from the gate.
It can be vaguely distinguished that the 820 coalition forces from the four cities of Lushui, Caopo, Dora, and Qingxi were blocked by the 1500 troops from Daofu City, preventing them from going to Lighthouse City.
The faces of the generals were full of disbelief, not knowing why this happened.At this moment, a soldier from the 4-city coalition army rode around the 1500 troops in Daofu City and galloped to the foot of Lighthouse City.
City Lord Green quickly ordered someone to open the door and let the soldier in.
Lord Green came to the soldier and asked quickly, "What's going on here?"
The soldier panicked: "Master Green, originally we came to Beacon City with the troops led by General Harry of Axe City. However, when we were about to reach Beacon City, General Harry suddenly let his troops stop in front of us. Don't let us pass!"
Lord Green quickly asked, "Why?"
"I don't know! General Harry won't let us pass no matter what, and even said that as long as we dare to take a step forward, they will attack us! Those troops are directly under General Harry's troops. If General Harry doesn't let us pass, we can't get through at all! "
Jesse, the captain of the first brigade, asked, "Do you have any conflicts?"
The soldier said miserably: "There is no contradiction. On the way we came, General Harry was chatting and laughing with the generals of our four cities!"
The generals of Lighthouse City looked at each other, unable to figure out why.
Lord Green said in a deep voice, "I'll go out of the city and ask why."
Immediately, a general said: "I don't know what General Harry is thinking now, I'm afraid it will be dangerous!"
Shirley said, "I'll go with you."
Bart followed, "I'll go too."
Lord Green nodded, as long as Shirley and Bart were around, he would not be in danger.
So Lord Green, Shirley, and Bart rode out of the city together. When the three of them approached the army of Knife and Axe, a middle-aged man in the army came out on horseback. This middle-aged man was wearing red armor. Sharp, with a bushy black beard.He is General Harry of Knife and Axe.
General Harry is also a titan, and he has experienced the last battle and made a lot of contributions.Moreover, General Harry not only loves his wife very much, but also cares about his soldiers very much, so his direct troops are loyal to him and are willing to go through fire and water for him.
As soon as General Harry came out, the surrounding soldiers followed immediately, surrounded General Harry, and all the soldiers held weapons in their hands to guard Green and his party with all their might.
Of course, the person all soldiers guarded against was Shirley next to Lord Green.
ps: I really don't have time today, so this is the update, and I will make up for it tomorrow.
119. Persevere
The soldiers had known for a long time that Shirley had come to Beacon City, so they could tell at a glance that this female soldier in white uniform was Shirley, one of the legendary three strongest generals.
Everyone knew how powerful Shirley was, because they were worried that Shirley would suddenly attack General Harry, so everyone was on guard against Shirley.The army under General Harry is all elite, and there are many fourth-level generals and third-level officers protecting General Harry at this time.
Seeing this formation, Shirley couldn't help frowning, knowing that she couldn't kill General Harry quickly.If she couldn't kill General Harry quickly, she couldn't make a move, because once Shirley was dragged into the battle, it would be bad for the wolf mercenaries to attack the city at this time.
Lord Green rode forward and said, "General Harry! Why did you do this?"
General Harry said: "I'm sorry, Lord Green, I have a reason to do this!"
Lord Green frowned. "What reason?"
"can not tell you!"
Lord Green was taken aback, and said in a deep voice: "General Harry, please don't act rashly, you also know what kind of danger Beacon City is facing now. Once Beacon City falls, the consequences will be disastrous. How can we face Her Majesty the Queen? You know what you are doing now Does such behavior mean anything?"
General Harry said without changing his face: "I know! But I have a reason to do this. After this incident is over, I am willing to accept any punishment!"
Bart said: "General Harry, what reason do you have, you can tell us, we can help you find a solution together! I don't believe you are the one who will betray the empire!"
General Harry shook his head and said sadly, "You can't do anything."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade General Harry, Lord Green said to the soldiers around General Harry, "Do you know what it means for you to follow General Harry?"
However, at the next moment, all the soldiers shouted in unison: "We are willing to advance and retreat with the general!"
At this time, all the soldiers in the audience had firm eyes, without any hesitation.
Bart also said a few words of persuasion, but there was also no way.
Lord Green sighed, and Shirley Bart turned their horses back to Lighthouse City.
Back in Beacon City, Bart told the generals about the situation, and the generals looked at each other in blank dismay. They couldn't think of why General Harry would do this at all.
At this time, a general said: "General Harry is blocking the arrival of reinforcements like this, which is tantamount to treason. It is better to let General Shirley lead [-] troops out of the city, and attack back and forth with the coalition forces of the four cities. General Harry will be defeated quickly, so that the reinforcements can enter the city." gone."
However, the Lord Green shook his head and said: "General Shirley can indeed lead the army to quickly defeat General Harry and his army, but it will take time. If General Shirley is fighting, the wolf mercenary group and Thomas attack the city at the same time, What should I do then?"
All the generals looked at each other in blank dismay, and another general said: "Then let General Bart fight?"
Bart sneered and said, "General Harry is a strong man who has experienced the last battle, and his men are all elite soldiers. If you let me fight, let alone win more with less, even if I bring all the defenders of Beacon City, I can't guarantee that I will be able to fight." Beat him."
Shirley couldn't go up, and she couldn't let others go up, and the generals suddenly had no choice.
At this time, the atmosphere in the meeting room was unprecedentedly dull.There were threats from the wolf mercenary group and Thomas in front, and General Harry blocked the retreat behind.There are only more than 2500 troops in Lighthouse City, and the current situation is worse than ever.
When everyone was worried, Shirley said lightly: "It will take a month for a large number of domestic reinforcements to arrive, and we need to hold on to Lighthouse City for a month."
As soon as Xue Li said, everyone suddenly woke up.That's right, isn't the only thing they can do now is to hold on to the city for a month and wait for reinforcements to arrive?
However, everyone knows one difficulty, that is, the lack of troops in Lighthouse City.Thomas now has 2500 troops on the north wall, and tens of thousands of wolf mercenaries on the east wall.How to defend with 2500 troops in Lighthouse City?Whichever side sends more troops will put the other side in danger.And the 1500 rebels of General Harry cannot be ignored.
Jesse, the captain of the first brigade, suddenly said: "My lord, please give me 500 people! I will definitely keep the northern city wall!"
The northern city wall is now threatened by Thomas's 2500 troops. Although Thomas's army is far from being as good at attacking the city as the wolf mercenaries, the captain of the first brigade, Jesse, said that it is still a very difficult task for him to defend with 500 people.
Jesse knew that this task was very difficult, but he still took it on his own initiative.
At this time, the captains of the second and third brigades were on guard against the wolf mercenaries on the east wall at any time.
Seeing the resolute look in the eyes of Jesse, the captain of the first brigade, Lord Green nodded and said, "Okay, I will leave the northern city wall to you, and I will send two more people to help you. Edge, Worth, the two of you and Jesse Let's defend the north wall together."
Edge and Worth are both squadron leaders with level [-] strength, and they immediately responded in unison: "Yes!"
Lord Green pondered again: "I don't know what General Harry is thinking now, so the defense of the southern city wall must not be relaxed."
A general hurriedly said: "City Master, we only have 2000 defenders to defend the wolf mercenary group. If we send a few hundred more, there will be a serious shortage of defenders to resist the wolf mercenary group!"
All the generals nodded.Although Xue Li was there, it was impossible for Xue Li alone to block the 1 wolf mercenary group from rushing over the city wall and rushing into the city at the same time.Once the wolf mercenary group enters the city and takes people hostage, it will be terrible.
Lord Green frowned and pondered. He knew that there was indeed a shortage of troops, but he couldn't completely relax the defense of the southern city wall against General Harry.
At this moment, a small young general said: "My lord! Please give me 100 defenders, and I will defend the southern city wall!"
This small young general is called Duyul. He is a general with level [-] strength and the strongest among them. In Beacon City, his strength is second only to the three captains with level [-] strength. There is Bart.
In the siege battle with the wolf mercenary group yesterday, before Bart arrived on the battlefield, he resisted the two fourth-level generals of the group leader Ali, one of whom was him.
As soon as Dewar said this, the surrounding generals immediately looked at Dewar with horror on their faces. General Harry has 1500 people. Can you block it with 100 people?Although it is said that there are 800 people from the four-city coalition outside the city, it is too exaggerated to only use 100 people to defend the city?
City Lord Green also looked at him in surprise. "You really only need 100 people?"
Seeing that everyone misunderstood, Dewar quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I still want to take 200 members of the security team to join the defense of the southern city wall!"
There are a total of more than 700 members of the security team in Lighthouse City to maintain law and order.These security team members have some strength, stronger than ordinary people.However, except for a few elites, the overall strength of the public security team is generally not as good as that of the army, and they have not received military combat training from the army.So of course it is far inferior to the regular army.
Lord Green mused, the combat power of the members of the security team is indeed not as good as that of the army, and they have not received military combat training, but they are still much better than relying on 100 people to defend alone.
ps: first update
120. Water Storage Lake
Seeing that Lord Green was thinking, Dewar said loudly: "I am also willing to issue a military order and swear to defend the southern city wall!"
Lord Green looked at Shirley, only to see Shirley nodded.It seems Shirley agrees with Dewar's plan.
So Green City Lord nodded and said: "Okay, then I will send 250 members of the security team to join your defense. You will conduct military combat training for them while defending the city, and improve their overall combat effectiveness as much as possible."
Dewar nodded vigorously. "yes!"
City Lord Green continued to arrange various defensive matters, and finally finalized the arrangement of sticking to Beacon City.
Now the enemy forces around Beacon City, Thomas in the north is defended by 500 people led by the captain of the first brigade, Jesse, and two fourth-level generals.
General Harry in the south was defended by 100 soldiers led by Dewar and 250 members of the security team.
