The Wizard’s Way Home

　　 Celai Kingdom, Spink City.

　　 Spink City was originally a commercial city, located at the junction of the eastern hills and the central plains. Due to the third rise of the Nords, the kingdom of Serei transformed this prosperous city into a huge fortress to resist the invasion of the Nords. However, due to the untimely death of the third King Nord, Nord talent stopped the attack. Otherwise, the Nords might have rushed out of the eastern hills long ago.

　　 Kenan looked at the city of Spink standing on the central plain in a distance. The walls of the entire Spink city are made of solid black iron rock, and the gaps between the stones are filled with molten iron. The entire city wall is ten meters high and six meters wide, with twenty arrow towers on the front, and the gate in the middle is also covered with iron.

　　 There is a trench with a width of six meters and a depth of more than three meters beyond the city wall. The bottom of the trench is filled with sharp wooden stakes.

　　 There is a second city wall after the city wall, which is twelve meters high and is densely lined with rows of arrow piles. Can resist for a while after the main city wall is lost. The buildings in the city are also solid stone buildings, and wooden structures are rarely seen, which is probably for fire prevention.

　　 There are more than 30 temporary wooden arrow towers erected in the city, which are estimated to be used for street fighting.

　　 Kenan looked at this huge city armed with hedgehogs from a distance, and turned his head to look at the elder group next to him. These humans really looked at me. They actually built such a strong city. What do you think?

　　 At this time, Ulu stood up, "My lord, give me three thousand warriors, and I will take down the city gate."

　　 Kenan glanced at Ulu, "No, the loss of the attack is too great and it is not cost-effective. Don't forget what our goal is. We can't waste too much force here. This is irresponsible to the whole world."

　　 At this time, Elder Hughes stood up, "Should we bypass this city? How about the kings who directly attacked the Kingdom of Serei?"

Kenan shook his head, "This is our first battle, so it must be won, and it must be clean and beautiful, so that people tremble when they mention our name. And if we leave it alone, it may threaten us. Logistics line."

　　 "My lord, what should we do then?" Ulu asked.

　　 Seeing Ulu's blank gaze, Kenan sighed, knowing that expecting these Nords who hunt all day to come up with a good way to siege the city is not easy, and now he can only rely on himself. I hope that through war, these Nords can grow up as soon as possible.

　　 Kenan calculated the distance between the city and the mountains and found that the city was only more than a thousand meters away from the hills where they were hiding.

　　 "Let the notice go down, all personnel rest on the opposite side of the hills, no fire is allowed, rest during the day, and siege the city tonight."

　　 "Accomplished." The messenger quickly retreated and passed the message on.

　　The Nords’ obedience to the strong is from the bones. As long as the king gives orders, he will question face to face even if he has doubts. If you accept the task, even the knife mountain oil pot will jump down without blinking. It is a very stupid and persistent race. Of course, only such a race can have strong cohesion.

　　 After the order was given, all the Nords began to eat some cold jerky according to Kenan's instructions, and then found a place to sleep. No one raised any questions. After all, it’s just fighting at night. Nords will also rest during the day and capture some nocturnal animals at night, so fighting at night is not unacceptable.

　　 Kenan silently glanced at the heavily guarded city of Spink. Turned back to the other side of the hill.

　　At night, torches were inserted all over the Spink tower, and groups of patrol soldiers passed by, constantly patrolling the city defenses. Although Kenan has been in office as the new King of the Nords for some time, and the Kingdom of Serei has issued strict defenses to all cities under its governance to prevent Nords from raids. However, the defense of Spink City remained in its usual state.

　　Because, according to the previous style of the Nords, if they were to attack the city, they would definitely open up the battle, and then compete with real swords and guns. In the past history, there is really no record of the Nordic attacking the city. In addition, Kenan made the army secret, and the patrol in Spink did not find the Nord army that had arrived, so it was normal to be unprepared.

　　Faen is an ordinary apprentice tanner. He could have gone to the tavern to play a boring life with a meager salary after finishing his hard work every day. Unfortunately, this peaceful life was broken by the martial law issued by the kingdom.

　　Because Spink is a border city, and with the martial law issued by the kingdom, the lord of Spink issued a mandatory conscription order. Farn was unfortunately called up, took off his thick work clothes, and then wore a thin standard uniform, holding a shabby spear and blowing cold wind on the city wall.

　　 The weather has entered autumn, and the wind at night is still very cold, and Faun stomped on the wall with his spear trembling while sipping his breath with both hands.

　　 Bullying newcomers is a common practice in almost all armies. Those old city defense forces were hiding in the barracks, drinking and eating meat, leaving only a few recruits guarding the city walls. Anyway, the enemy hasn't come, and now the fool went to the wall to blow the cold wind. This is almost the common idea of ​​all the defenders in the city. Therefore, in addition to the staff on duty, Spink's defense in the city is still very lax.

　　Farn stomped his feet and walked towards Bandak next to the torch. Bandak was an apprentice in the wine-making workshop next door, and just like Fine, he was also an unlucky conscript. It is too lonely to watch the night alone on the city wall, or to find someone familiar to talk to can make time pass faster.

Farn brought his stiff hands close to the torch. Although the heat is limited, the shivering Farn could not take much care of him~www.readwn.com~Bandak looked at the trembling Finn with cold. , Turned his body sideways, and flashed a position to Faun. They can also be regarded as a pair of difficult brothers and brothers, and they are usually considered to know each other. Under this environment, they are naturally closer than ordinary people.

　　Faen bake the fire for a while, only to slow down a little, while looking at the shadow outside the city with his spear in a daze, he looks for topics to chat.

　　 "It's really cold today, and I don't know when the winter clothes will be sent out, hell."

　　 "Yes," Bandak continued, "The lords themselves stayed in the warm house and left us on the wall to blow the cold wind. I don't know if this month's salary will be paid."

"Yeah, don't be detained by those captains. I heard people say that our captain is the nephew of the city defense officer and should not appreciate the money." Faun was a little worried when he was said by Bandak. stand up. As a small civilian, what he cares most is his own pitiful interests.

　　 "Forget it, it's useless to think about it." Bandak took out a small hip flask and shook it at Faun, "Come on? Not drinking a little in this ghostly weather is deadly."

　　 "That's not good, isn't it?" Fine hesitated. After all, it is strictly forbidden to drink alcohol during the watch.

　　 "What are you afraid of? Didn't you see those veterans hiding in the barracks and drinking? It doesn't matter if we have a little bit. If you don't drink, I will drink it all by myself." Bandak took a sip of himself.

　　 "Well, I'll have some too. It's really impossible to drink a little in this horrible weather." Seeing that Bandak had drunk, he was also addicted to alcohol, so he took a sip from Bandak's jug.

　　 While drinking and chatting, Faun suddenly noticed that there was a mist slowly drifting towards Spink City in the distance, and he couldn't help muttering, "Today's fog is really big."
