Lord of Riders

Chapter 196: Castle fall

For every Nord soldier killed, the Swadia Kingdom has to pay an almost equal price. Although it is defending the city, the Swadia Kingdom’s defenders do not have an absolute advantage in front of the Nords. To any cheaper.

The Swadia crossbowmen kept filling their crossbow bolts against the rain of arrows. The infantry in front blocked the enemy's arrows for them, but the crossbowmen were still shot to death by the opponent.

With the strong walls, the defenders of the Kingdom of Swadia resisted desperately under the command of Lord Dispin. Although the offensive of the Nord Kingdom was very fierce, it failed to break through the defense of Deziersburg in a short period of time. Many severely wounded Swadia soldiers jumped off the city head directly holding the enemy, wanting to die with the enemy.

Lord Dispin wielded the noble dagger in his hand, constantly assassinating the enemies who rushed up. Dozens of guards of Lord Dispin almost lost their casualties in one day's battle, and Lord Dispin was also injured. The soldiers who defended the city suffered thousands of casualties.

The first day finally persisted. The Nord army had more than 3,000 casualties in one day. The Nord Kingdom was scrupulous about casualties and retreated, healed the wounded, and prepared for the next siege.

Shao Yu set off for Dehrim, and before reaching Dehrim, news of the fall of Deqiousburg came through.

The garrison of Deschausburg was annihilated, and the Nord army took control of Deschausburg. The garrison of Deschausburg held on for three days. A cavalry unit of thousands of people came to support it. There was a field battle under the city and the army of the Anglo-Saxon Empire.

However, the original strong Swadia heavy cavalry suffered a big defeat in front of these Anza Empire infantry regiments.

The Swadia heavy cavalry was completely unable to get close to their soldiers in the five-meter long spears of the Ansa Empire infantry. The longbowmen of the Ansa Empire started shooting the charging Swadia cavalry from two hundred meters away. In a short charge, the Swadia cavalry lost more than 300 men, but failed to touch the enemy, and once again turned back and charged. , The casualties of the Swadia cavalry troops reached 500 people, the Swadia cavalry suffered heavy losses as soon as they came up, and soon withdrew from the battle.

The Defenders of Deziosberg, who had lost their aid, fought stubbornly for another two days, killing and wounding tens of thousands of soldiers of the Nord Kingdom. After the fall of Deziersburg, the Kingdom of Nord then began to march on Deherim.

After Shao Yu arrived at Dehrim, he was warmly welcomed by King Harous.

"Shao Yu, you finally arrived. I have been waiting here for a long time." As soon as Shao Yu arrived, King Haraus said happily

"Go to the lobby and talk about it, our country is really under a huge threat now."

King Haraus was anxious and said as he walked

"How is the war in your country now, King Harous" Shao Yu asked with concern

"Dechersburg is lost and Lord Dispin is unclear about the life or death" said King Haraus

"Now they are about to attack Dherim again. We now have 30,000 troops assembled in Dherim, and another 20,000 horses will arrive here one day later. One day later, the Nord Kingdom and the Ansa Empire 'S army should be besieging us Dherim."

King Haraus and Shao Yu said that King Haraus turned black two nights and looked haggard. It seems that he has not seen each other during this period. King Haraus is much older than the last time they met.

Shao Yu was followed by a group of guards he had brought. There were only more than a hundred people, fifty orc warriors accompanied, and fifty newly expanded shadow guards.

Shao Yu re-expanded the number of shadow guards, selecting the most elite soldiers from the army, and expanding into the ranks of shadow guards. As Shao Yu's personal guards, these newly recruited shadow guards are equally powerful, at least not losing to those shadow guards who have been following Shao Yu.

Shao Yu's orc guards did not wear their heavy armor, which affected the marching speed. They still wear their usual traditional wolf fur cloak. Carrying a two-meter-long machete. This is convenient for marching. Of course, they have a horse team dedicated to transporting their weapons and equipment.

The strong and tall orc warriors followed Shao Yu into Dehrim and received the attention of the soldiers. These tall soldiers look absolutely extraordinary in combat effectiveness. At the same time, looking at their costumes, they don’t look like they are on the Calradia continent. People, don’t know how Shao Yu got these soldiers.

However, King Harrods did not pay attention to these things, and the situation of those soldiers would not pay too much attention to them.

King Haraus was still busy talking to Shao Yu about the current plight of the Kingdom of Swadia. Without enough troops, I am afraid that defending Deherim is not a perfect strategy.

Relying on the huge military advantage, the Nord Kingdom and the Anglo-Saxon empire's armies are still very likely to capture Deherim.

"You also know that the army of the Anglo-Saxon Empire and the tiger shark fleet that attacked the Kingdom of Rhodok came from the same empire. It is very likely that they will choose to transfer all their forces to deal with after the war with the Kingdom of Rhodok. Our country is coming up." King Harous had a pessimistic view of the situation.

However, the judgment of King Haraus is still very possible. If the Ansa Empire can not gain any advantage in the Rhodok Kingdom, it will turn to the entire army to attack the Swadia Kingdom. In that case, the Kingdom of Swadia would face nearly 200,000 enemies.

Shao Yu scratched his head, this situation is indeed more anxious. If the Kingdom of Swadia loses Dehrim, the Kingdom of Swadia will lose control of the central area of ​​Calradia, including the castles of Lundia Fort and Rendi Fort and their subordinates. Villages will be gradually eaten away by the Nord Kingdom.

The power of the Nord Kingdom continues to expand, and it is difficult for the Swadia Kingdom, which has lost Dehrim, to regain its advantage in the central part of Calradia. Coupled with the invasion of the Anglo-Saxon Empire, it also added a lot of unpredictability to the situation on the Calradia continent.

"What do you think of King Harous?" Shao Yu asked

"I hope you can reinforce us. Now you are my only ally. King Vidim has no country anymore. With the more than 10,000 people under his hand, he can't do anything at all." King Haraus earnestly Looked at Shao Yu and said

King Haraus now has great expectations of Shao Yu. The current situation makes King Harous feel very powerless. Harrods is bent on restoring the former glory of the Swadia Kingdom, but now, it is difficult to preserve the existing land. King Harrods can only pin his hopes on this ally who has been creating miracles.

"I can mobilize 20,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry to contain the actions of the Nord Kingdom"

Looking at the pleading eyes of King Haraus, Shao Yu sighed and said

"This is all the troops I can use" Shao Yu added
