What's wrong with a lord daddy who just wants to draw cards?

Chapter 323 -322- The tactic of retreating to advance was a great success

In the early morning four days later, in the outpost city directly opposite Selinya, General Hernan, one of the alliance commanders, was responsible for guarding the place.

Last night, near midnight, he suddenly received news from spies within the empire.

It was said that a planned and organized large-scale rebellion occurred in a city behind Selinya, including members of the Reformed Church.

"As far as I know, it is possible that people from the Reformed Church are operating secretly, trying to harass the front line and subvert the rule of the empire in revenge for Dominic Blofeld.

In addition, I have seen Dominic coming here in person and starting to suppress the rebellion. The city is only medium-sized and the suppression will not take too long. It is conservatively estimated that it will take at least a day. "

That's what the spy said.

As a person involved, his words had a high reference value, so generals from various countries, including General Hernan, were forced to get up in the middle of the night and discuss tactics together until dawn.

At six o'clock in the morning, they finally decided to let the army cross the valleys and hills immediately and attack Selinya!

Selinya, who does not have Dominic and some of his troops, is a golden opportunity for them!
  At eight o'clock in the morning, the [-] troops stationed in the outpost city rushed out, leaving only [-] troops to guard the rear.

It was natural that they were ambushed while marching into the mountains, forests and valleys, but the damage was still within an acceptable range.

It took a lot of effort to cross the mountains with the siege equipment. Soon, they saw the city wall of Selinya not far away.

Although there are still many soldiers guarding the city wall, they all know that the garrison in the city is not sufficient, and the soldiers are confident.

Hernan gave the order and the whole army attacked!

The trumpet of war sounded melodiously and the siege battle officially started!
  The morale of the Alliance army was high, and they rushed towards the city wall one after another. The mage behind them used all their strength to blast magic on the city's magic barrier, while the archers specialized in sniping at the defenders on the city wall.

After a bloody tug of war, the Alliance's battering ram finally rushed to the city gate amid the accumulation of countless corpses.

"one two three!!"

thump—

"one two three!!"

thump—

The battering ram hit the city gate rhythmically, and the seemingly unbreakable city gate was crumbling...

"The city gate is about to be breached again! Run!"

Seeing that something was wrong, the soldiers guarding the city began to run away.

"Everyone come back! Don't run away!"

Lancelot pretended to resist and roared angrily, but to no avail.

The other high-end combat forces who stayed behind to perform also showed signs of decline in the battle against the alliance's high-end combat forces.

Hernan, who was on the outside, keenly noticed the imperial army's defeat, so he quickly asked the soldiers to break through:
  "They are running away! Chase them and destroy their vitality!"

The city was once again plunged into a sea of ​​fire, with almost no civilians inside, which was normal. The original residents of this city had already fled during the last invasion, and the imperial army was stationed in a dead city.

There was no money to be made, which made Hernan not happy even if he captured Selinya.

"General Hernan, the remaining imperial troops and high-end combat forces have fled outside the city, but I have sent cavalry troops to catch up."

"Well, well done."

Although there is no oil or water, Selinya's strategic significance is extremely important. It will become the new outpost city for the Alliance to invade the hinterland of the empire!

"What shall we do next?"

"Let the engineers start repairing the city gate, and the other soldiers will rearrange the defense line, and be sure to hold this place before reinforcements arrive."    "As ordered."

At this time, neither of them noticed that on top of the tallest bell tower in the city, three figures were looking down at all the creatures below, their eyes as cold as if they were looking at a group of dead people.

"My lord, why don't you take action yet?" There was a rare flash of violence and bloodthirst in Arei's silky eyes. She couldn't wait to kill all these blind guys.

"My lord must be waiting for reinforcements from the alliance to arrive. Only by killing them all in one go can the opponent's losses be maximized." Aurora explained.

"Aurora is right. Don't be impatient, Alei. You can take action almost at night. The more people there are at a funeral, the more fun it will be, right?"

He still remembers Alei's extremely large-scale, [-]% fatal move, and his memory is extremely profound.

If he had not asked the elves and the Theocracy's coalition forces to prepare counter-magic in advance, I am afraid that Aleya's magic could have wiped out the coalition forces, and the demons would not be huddled in their hometowns to recuperate during this great opportunity of war between the countries.

"That's true~ Just wait patiently~ But sir, it's still a long time until night, so why don't we do something interesting together! Sister Aurora is coming too~"

The way Aurora looked at her suddenly became strange.

Doesn’t it all prove that your love for Mrs. Shia does not tolerate a third party? Why still brush aside?
  Is it...? !

Aurora suddenly thought of a possibility. If it was just flirting, the adults would be kind-hearted and wouldn't say much, and Alejandro's desire would be released!
  Oh my God, Arete, you are such a sinful woman...

Aurora immediately shook her head: "I won't!"

"Really?" Aleia looked a little disappointed, and then took out a set of cards from the storage space: "It's a pity, playing furnace cards with two people will be less competitive..."

Furnace... furnace brand? ? ?
  Aurora was stunned for a moment, then stamped her foot angrily:

"Ah really!"

Arete was also stunned and looked at Aurora in confusion: "Why are you suddenly angry?"

"Nothing, just add me." Aurora sighed.

"Why are you here again now?"

"I changed my mind temporarily!"

Seeing the rare quarrel between the two, Duomi couldn't help but smile: "I feel relieved to see that your relationship is so good."

So, the three of them played stove cards on the roof of the bell tower, just to pass the time.

……

At the same time, in the two cities on the edge of Selinya, the soldiers who had poured into them disguised as refugees four days ago were once again wearing their armor and fighting with the two generals, with their swords pointing directly at the alliance's outpost cities.

The two cities on the edge of the outpost city also got the relevant information immediately. They were about to send troops to intercept, but they found that there was another imperial army heading towards them on the other side!

Are they going to attack the central outpost city or their satellite cities?

Or fight both? !

I can’t tell the difference, I really can’t tell the difference!

Being passive, it was too late for them to seek support from the side.

If you think about it calmly, it is better to lose one city than to lose two cities!
  Keep the satellite city, and then you can take it back with cheese.

After weighing the pros and cons, the defending generals of the two satellite cities unanimously decided to defend their own city. As for the central outpost city, it all depends on their luck...
