Heroes of Silver Moon

"Kill! Kill!" The main castle of Buluo Fortress shouted and killed.

The orcs continued to attack. The soldiers clung to the ladder like ants, and were stabbed to death by the human defenders above, and their bodies fell to the ground weakly.

Not only that, the rocks, kerosene, and arrows also poured down continuously from above.

As an ancient fortress that has been built for thousands of years, the Buluo Fortress is not only tall and strong, but also has an inexhaustible reserve of supplies. If it is not for the shortage of troops, it is impossible for the orcs to attack.

Seeing that another round of attack was blocked, the chief warrior of the orcs, Bateer, cracked the city wall with a punch.

Their number is five times that of the human defenders, and they are assisted by spellcasters and flying units. Although human weapons and armor are more sophisticated, it has been so many days, and they have not yet been able to capture the main castle.

What a disgrace!

"Let's go again!" Battelle, with a sullen face, ignored the fatigue of his soldiers and ordered them to attack again immediately. The main castle must be captured today.

"Forget it, let's stop here today, let's withdraw troops!" The eldest prince Batu on the side shook his head.

The soldiers lost all energy, and they had been fighting for a whole day, so even if they continued to attack, they would only kill humans.

"Hmph!" Although Battelle was dissatisfied, he didn't object. He was not a fool. Batu was obviously doing favor to the soldiers, and I'm afraid he wished he could object.

The soldier finally looked forward to coming to rest. If he disagreed, he would definitely feel resentful. This kind of resentment is usually fine, but he is afraid that something will happen.

The old Khan is about to die soon, at this time, it is better to try his best to win people's hearts.

Back to King Khan's big tent, the two reported today's battle to the old Khan. The old Khan turned his back to them and looked at the map that was set up.

Capturing the Unfallen Fortress was only the first step, and he had to consider his next plan.

"Let the army rest for a day tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow we will go all out and capture the main castle!" The order of the old Khan made the two of them feel strange.

Battelle promised: "My king, don't need to rest, we will be able to capture the main castle tomorrow!"

Batu was also puzzled: "Yes, Father Khan, don't we want to capture the Buluo Fortress as soon as possible? Why let the army rest at this time?"

The old Khan turned around, glanced at the two of them slowly, and said calmly: "Who told you that we need to capture the infallible fortress as soon as possible?"

The two immediately looked at each other in blank dismay. The old Khan did not say that, but isn't the situation obvious?

Battelle said bluntly: "My king, in half a month at most, other human countries will send troops to help the Silver Moon Kingdom. Before that, we have to break into the Silver Moon Kingdom, burn their towns, and kill their people. People, break their foundations!"

The old Khan glanced at him indifferently, and said leisurely: "Don't worry, the Silver Moon Kingdom will not wait for reinforcements for at least a month."

"This..." Batu's mouth twitched, and he analyzed: "We have attacked the Fortress of Unfallen for more than a month. The Silver Moon Kingdom has long asked other countries for help. How could other countries not respond for so long? Come?"

The old Khan sat down, still looking leisurely, and slowly explained: "Silver Moon Kingdom is a peninsula country, bordering only three countries in the interior, namely our Red Scorpion Khanate, and the sacred kingdom of mankind. The Empire and the Principality of Love.

"Behind the Principality of Love, there are also several small principalities. The Principality of Love's army is weak. If we come to help alone, it will not pose a threat to us at all, unless we join forces with several other principalities."

"I think that there is a high probability that they will not sacrifice their own army to save the Silvermoon Kingdom, but will join forces with several other duchies to help the Silvermoon Kingdom.

"But the politics of a small country is troublesome. The smaller the country, the more serious the internal strife, and the slower the efficiency of the action, let alone the joint efforts of several small principalities."

"Even if we have received a request for help before, we are probably still arguing now. Which family should send how much troops? How much supplies? Which country should send how many troops? How much supplies? Who should the coalition army command? What about the losses afterwards? make up?"

"To say that troops will be sent in another month is to overestimate them. It is even possible that they may not be able to integrate the army in three to five months."

Speaking of this, the old Khan breathed a sigh of relief, and Battelle and Batu also nodded frequently. This analysis is indeed reasonable.

"Let's talk about the Holy Empire." The old Khan continued, "Recently, I've been thinking about a question. What kind of power is able to know the information of the Silver Moon Kingdom like the back of the hand, but the Silver Moon Kingdom still doesn't know?"

"And this force must not belong to the orcs. Otherwise, there is no need to be so cautious and wasteful when passing on information to us."

"The possibility of aliens is not very high. They are all huddled in remote places, and it is too late to protect themselves. How could they intervene in the war between orcs and humans?"

"After thinking about it, only human beings can do this kind of thing, but although human beings have many forces, there are not many that have an intersection with the Silver Moon Kingdom."

"As for the intersecting forces in this part, it is almost impossible to completely infiltrate the Silver Moon Kingdom and make the Silver Moon Kingdom's intelligence system completely unaware."

"Even if there is, there is only one, don't you think so? Silver Moon King."

The old Khan looked at the corner of the big tent. Jonah, who was ragged and unkempt, was no different from a beggar, and was chained like a dog by the orcs.

When his name was called, Yona opened his closed eyes, glanced at the old Khan indifferently, and then closed his eyes again.

"Bastard, my king is asking you something!" Battelle sneered when he saw this, walked over and kicked the human king over.

Jonah didn't resist either, and fell to the ground with blank eyes, staring blankly at the top of the tent.

During this period of time, he certainly wanted to understand this point, but he still couldn't believe that the Holy Empire really attacked the Silver Moon Kingdom!

Why? Just because of the naval battle with the imperial fleet? But it was the other party who attacked them first!

"No, no, Battelle, although he is not as good as a dog now, he is still the king of humans, so he must be polite." The old Khan looked coldly at Jona, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, feeling neither happy nor sad. .

Without the army and the people, the king is just a title. To humans, he may be a king, but to the orcs, he is just a dog with the title of king.

Not even a dog, at least if the owner is in a good mood, he will throw a bone to the dog, but here Yona can only endure endless humiliation.

"Hmph!" Battelle sneered, spit on Jonah's face, and then stepped on his right foot and twisted it, and then let him go contentedly.

From the beginning to the end, Jonah did not resist at all, because this would only lead to more vicious humiliation.

"After breaking through the fortress, there is no need to deliberately kill ordinary people and burn towns. That would be a waste of time, and let the wolf cavalry disperse and burn their farmland."

Looking at Jona on the ground, the corner of Old Khan's mouth showed a hint of complacency: "King Yinyue, what is my strategy? It's simple enough. As long as the wolf cavalry is fast enough, it can be burned in ten days. All the farmland in your northern border , leaving only a few million hungry people, and let the Silver Moon Kingdom attack and destroy itself!"

This time, Yona finally reacted. He clenched his fists tightly, with pain and self-blame on his face. If the army outside the Great Wall that he led was not wiped out, how could the Silver Moon Kingdom fall to this point!

 …

The setting sun was shining softly. On the top spire of the main castle, Delrin, the head of the Second Legion stationed at the Buluo Fortress, was kneeling on one knee with a long sword in his hand, praying devoutly and calmly.

Mrs. Karna quietly came to him and waited for him to finish the prayer before asking, "Why are you so calm? You don't worry about what to do after the castle is breached."

"Before the city is broken, I must have died in battle, and you must have committed suicide by taking poison."

"Since you have fulfilled your loyalty, you are worthy of the king's grace. What happens in the Silver Moon Kingdom after that has nothing to do with us, the dead."

Delrin asked calmly, "If that's the case, why should I worry?"

Kana shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, it's meaningless to say these things. The poison has been distributed to everyone, but I can decide whether they eat it or not."

"Others don't have to eat it, but our daughter Lindy~www.readwn.com~ must eat it. I don't want her to endure the pain of life." When talking about her daughter Lindy, Delrin revealed a trace of guilt.

It was he who failed to protect his wife and children, but he really tried his best.

"I'll tell her again." Kana laughed at herself and felt helpless. She knew her daughter's temperament, she was ruthless and soft-hearted, and she would never commit suicide willingly like this.

But do you really think that being alive is better than being dead?

 …

The streamer province of the Holy Empire, which is the closest province to the Silvermoon Kingdom, is also the only province bordering the Silvermoon Kingdom.

The governor's mansion, the governor of the province, Bonet, is questioning the legion commander Peng Li: "Why hasn't the army been reorganized to support the Silvermoon Kingdom for so long?"

Facing the governor's questioning, the legion commander picked up the teacup calmly, took a sip, and then replied, "Someone brought me a word from the imperial capital."

Governor Bonet frowned suddenly and asked, "What are you talking about?"

The head of the legion, Peng Li, replied meaningfully: "His Royal Highness the Regent feels that the Silver Moon Kingdom seems to be developing very fast recently."

Governor Bonet immediately closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and asked, "Are you sure His Royal Highness the Regent?"

"Of course, the person here is the royal envoy." Legion Commander Peng Li helplessly shrugged.

"Okay, then we can only hope that Silvermoon Kingdom can ask for more blessings!" Governor Bonet slumped on the chair powerlessly.

In the Holy Empire, no one can go against the regent's will, because he represents His Majesty the Emperor, unless His Majesty personally speaks out against it.

But the supreme human emperor, how could he care about some trivial matters of the mundane.

So this time, Silvermoon Kingdom is really in trouble...
