Chapter 282: At the border

Name:Sword of Daybreaker Author:Yuan Tong
Cecil’s collar was again attacked by monsters from the ruined land, and the enemy who successfully annihilated the enemy on that day became the fastest and most widely spread news in this cold winter, and the spread of the news was not only the way. The credits of the spies, traders, and mercenaries have a great influence on the acquiescence and even the secret promotion of the high-text people.

In Gao Wen’s statement, it is “must let the amiable Southern aristocrats and kings know the existence of threats”.

In this cold winter, many people are destined to sit down.

On the eastern border of Ansu, the Changfeng Fortress.

As the general guardian of the East, the Duke of Silas Loren personally stationed the fortress. At this moment, he stood on the top terrace of the castle in the center of the fortress, overlooking the layers of the wall in the distance, and Outside the wall, the vast expanse of snow covered snow.

This fortress, which was completed ten years ago, is the pride of the Loren family in the East. It has gone through the pains of three generations. The East family has paid huge financial resources, material resources, manpower, and even the blood of family members. The sturdy fortress was erected on the tit-for-tat land of the Titan empire. It is a barrier and a deterrent to the Winter Wolf Fort and its affiliated fortresses set up on the border with the Titan Empire.

The establishment of the Changfeng Fortress stems from the rapid deterioration of the relationship between Ansu and Tifeng.

In the foggy month of a hundred years ago, the Loren family in the East was the best preserved of the Dukes of the Four Kingdoms. From the beginning, the family realized that the Tifeng empire, which is always commensurate with the Ansu brothers, is actually a huge The threat, so during the entire foggy month, the family did not let their core forces participate in the chaotic and cruel kingship struggle. The Loren family’s limited actions during the Civil War were just to keep themselves The status and influence within the kingdom, and most of their energy has been placed on this border line in the east. Later, the facts proved that the dignity and responsibility of the Duke of Loren guarded the entire kingdom.

At the end of the civil strife, the situation in Ansu was quickly settled by the establishment of the Second Dynasty and the thunder of the Northern Wilde family. The Loren family began to build a series of defense facilities on the border, and the Windward Fortress was all defenses. One of the most energetic, time-consuming, and defensive forces in the facility.

It is not so much a military fortress, but rather a “fortress city” with both fortress and city functions. It has all the facilities to maintain the operation of the fortress and ensure self-sufficiency. The soldiers of the Loren family are the soldiers of the city. It is also a resident of the city, and the purpose of this fortress city is to stand on the border of the land under any circumstances and never fall.

When Ansu suffered a major recession due to civil strife, the Tifeng empire was born out of its own strength, and it was because of the establishment of the barrier of the Loren family that it was on the national border. The heart can only be a bad heart.

In fact, the four major families of Ansu in the midst of the foggy month can be said to have taken on several distinct historical roles: the Franklin family in the West has always maintained diplomatic and trade relations with the Ogure tribe and saved the kingdom. The economic lifeline laid the foundation for the reconstruction of the post-war kingdom; the Wilder family in the northern border used an illegitimate child as a banner, and it thundered and settled the civil strife of the entire country, forcibly stabilized the kingdom before the situation was completely irreparable; The Loren family, as a barrier, held the border of Ansu and blocked the unscrupulous enemies outside the country during the civil strife.

Although each of them can be said to be selfish, and they are almost divided during the civil war, but in any case, they still hold the kingdom at the last moment.

In stark contrast, the Cecil family, which was originally established by the heads of the four founding dukes in the south, has been a glorious Cecil family for six hundred years... No one has done anything.

Now that the ancestors of the Cecil family have lived, no one dares to directly accuse the Cecil family of honors. They can only say that their homes are unfortunate, and they have encountered one of the worst heirs, ancestors, at the most critical point in time. The foundation is almost destroyed.

Historians have never lacked enthusiasm in this regard, they always talked about what caused the four families to have such a very different performance during the foggy month, but in the eyes of the Duke of Loren, all The discussion about that period of history is meaningless. He thinks that the main reason for the situation in that year is that Govin Cecil died too early. The Duke of Cecil, who died at the age of 35, left the field too early. The world, so I did not pass his glory and glory to the children in time, so the inheritance of the Cecil family was a big problem in the Grumman Cecil generation.

The resurrection of the Duke of Cecil may be to educate future generations.

Silas Loren stood on the terrace and quietly thought about these issues concerning the history and glory of the kingdom. Many people think that this legendary Duke is just a martial artist, but he thinks that those are just ignorant. Nothing is foolish. He never lacks deep thinking, but his talent on the battlefield is far higher than his thinking, so people only notice his power.

A familiar atmosphere approached, and Silas Loren regained his gaze into the distance. He turned and saw a young man with short brown hair and armor walking on the terrace. This old-fashioned, imposing young knight was He bent slightly in front of him: "Father, intelligence is coming."

"The Knights!" said Silas Loren, "Berke, you are reporting the military!"

"Yes!" The young man quickly got up and took a very standard knight ceremony, "General, the latest information."

Silas nodded: "Say."

"It has been proven that the Titan Winter Wolf Fortress did fight a few days ago, but it was not with us, but with an unknown monster. The Winter Wolf Fortress won and the fortress was not broken. However, the outer wall suffered moderate damage, and the casualties of the defenders were unknown, but it should not be rare."

Silas nodded slightly, but undecided, the younger Belk Silas Loren’s eldest son saw it and couldn’t help but say: “Father, this is a good opportunity for us to weaken the enemy!”

Silas looked at Belk's eyes with a blank expression: "Do you really think so?"

"The exhaustion of the enemy is our advantage," Belk said to his father's gaze and said with a head. "Their walls have been weakened. It is difficult to repair the walls in winter. The defense of Winter Wolf Fort is weak in a short time. Secondly, they were attacked by monsters. In a short period of time, panic will weaken their combat effectiveness. Finally, their soldiers are also damaged, so this is a good time for us to attack."

"idiot."

Berk stood straight and didn't back down.

"Do you know that Winter Wolf is not a separate fortress, but one of a series of fortresses? You know that it is winter now, and we are separated from the Winter Wolf Fort by a large piece of ice and snow? You know that the Tifeng people are in them. How many reserve soldiers are set in the fortress group, can you replace the frustrated army at any time?

"This damage does not hurt the Titan at all. Instead, it will allow them to at least double the defense of the Winter Wolf Fort and its surrounding areas in a short period of time. A large number of garrisons will move from the rear of the fortress group to the front line. To make up for the lack of defense caused by the damage of the city wall; we have to attack the Winter Wolf Fortress across the ice and snow, that snow and ice will make our troops weaken a lot, the enemy's exhaustion is our advantage? Waiting for you to go to the foot of Winter Wolf Fort, The exhaustion is you! And the most important offensive is the all-out war, but I said that I want to fight with Tifeng now?"

Berk bowed his head, but couldn’t help but say: "The war between us and Tifeng... is in sight."

Silas looked at his too young son. He could feel the courage in his chest and the thirst for victory and glory. This is the quality he tried to instill in the other side, but he still has to shake his head at the moment: "Don't expect this. War. Don't expect anything at all."

"father?"

"Warriors really should be eager for victory on the battlefield, but not for the war itself, especially the war with Tifeng," Silas Loren said slowly and sighed softly. "And you heard some other news. What?"

"Another message?" Belk frowned, apparently not knowing what his father was saying. "What?"

“A group of businessmen coming from the southwest, they came into the city with an alchemy potion,” said the Duke of Silas, who said, “They said that the new Cecil collar in the southwest was also affected by monsters. Attacks, the monsters are from the mutated creatures that have just smashed the waste soil. Your intelligence has come too slowly. Even the news of Cecil has followed the merchants here, but you have understood the winter wolf!"

Berk is somewhat ashamed, although he knows that this is not his incompetent business walking in a safe and stable country, and he is going to explore the situation of the tightly sealed enemy bastion outside the border, which is quite different in difficulty and efficiency. But even so, it is true that he failed to do things best.

So he silently accepted his father’s criticism and made a disturbing feeling from the news that his father mentioned: “Those monsters...that was when the Duke of Govin Cecil raised warnings to the nobles when the king Go to the monster?"

"Yes," Silas Loren nodded. "At first, when he warned, not many people believed, even I didn't pay much attention to it, but now it seems... I am afraid I made a mistake."

Belk looked at his father with surprise, and he rarely saw his father admit that he had made a mistake.

"Those monsters are real, and they are threatening human territory," Silas ignored his son's gaze, but continued as if he said to himself. "They will attack Titan and attack us. In the eyes of those waste monsters, there is no such thing as Tifeng and Ansu, and this sudden threat... I am afraid will change the whole situation."
