"My dear cousin Stephanie, now you can talk."

Entering the commander's camp where the flag of the Orioles is hung high in the middle of the barracks, Richard ordered someone to pour Stephanie a cup of hot water, and then sat casually on the main seat and asked her.

"Yeah." Stephanie warmed her cold hands while holding the warm water glass, and said, "You must know something about the battle in Lavana, so I won't be more nonsense."

"My uncle, who was bewitched by the decaying tree, has been besieging the city of Ravana since he led his army. It has been three months now. With the tall walls and abundant supplies, we can continue to resist, but the stalemate is not Way. It is said that Bandak is sending people to contact with your old enemy Jutian, the Republic of Cunha and the Duchy of Lasik, asking them to send troops to help him become King of Ravana..."

"Wait, Jutian?" Richard frowned, interrupting Stephanie, and asked.

"Yes. Stephanie nodded, "I don't know what the content of their negotiation will be, but I want to know that Jutian, who you are here, will definitely not refuse Bandak's request. "

"Okay, I didn't look for him, he is going to look for me first." Richard said with a sneer, but his right fist hit the table severely, "Let him come, I want him Pay the worst price!"

"You calm down," Stephanie persuaded. "You only have three or four thousand troops, but Bandak's rebels alone have more than 10,000 men, not to mention the addition of Jutian's army."

When Stephanie said this, Richard couldn't help but was shocked in a cold sweat behind his back. Yes, he now has only three or four thousand troops, even if you add five thousand Danish troops under the command of General Charles on Kuban Island. Nearly ten thousand, what do these people use to fight Bandak and the others? Do you want to fight?

Seeing that Richard fell silent for a moment, Stephanie knew that he was reminded by her own words, and said: "Rather than wait until Bandak finds foreign aid, it is better to attack Bandak's main force first and defeat Ravana in one fell swoop. What do you think of them?"

"I agree with your proposal, Stephanie, but," Richard said. "But I must attack Fort Cochrane and clear the threat to my rear before I can continue westward."

"How long does it take?" Stephanie asked.

"I don't know. The defenders of Cochranborg are very tenacious and will not surrender even if our troops have been under siege for half a year."

"..."

Stephanie suddenly lost her voice. She was just a royal princess. She was fine on paper, and she couldn't help it in this situation.

"So, in a short time I can't bring my army westward." Richard shrugged and made a helpless expression.

...

Finally, for the sake of Stephanie’s safety, Richard let her live in the barracks with the knights she brought. He didn’t want Stephanie to run around in this war-ridden country, in case he encounters a small army of rebels. It's not over.

After Stephanie moved in, in order to show that she did her best, Richard ordered the soldiers to launch the first siege to Fort Cochrane in half a year. The result was naturally defeated by the defenders, leaving several corpses and siege equipment behind. Back again.

Then, another two months passed.

The season has changed from winter to spring when everything is resurrected. The snow accumulated throughout the winter is gradually dissolved under the sun's rays in spring, turning into water and flowing into the earth, which is absorbed by plants. And what comes along with spring is news from the city of Ravana.

The city of Ravana was conquered!

To be precise, the outer city of Ravana City was conquered.

Bandak, who had been unable to make substantial progress after repeated frontal attacks on the city, finally decided to change his tactics after thinking. The cargo was evacuated and the soldiers hid in the cargo hold. The sailors were also replaced by soldiers, and then the captain was forced to continue to drive to the city of Ravana.

After the fleet entered the inner city port of the outer city, the soldiers on board suddenly attacked and killed the officials who boarded the ship to inspect, then rushed into the port, quickly seized control of the port, and killed it towards the city gate. If it were not for the timely response of the defenders of the second wall, they would close the gates before the rebels rushed in. I am afraid that even the second wall would have to be captured by the defenders.

After the fall of the outer city, the defenders lost access to external supplies and the materials stored in the outer city warehouses. They could only hold on to the second city wall. Fortunately, outside the second city wall was the Fabrisi River, which was a wide area. The great river in China is also a natural moat, which can ease most of the offensive of the rebels.

King Lawrence, who was hiding in the Trizi Palace, turned pale when he knew the bad news of the fall of the outer city. Even the strong outer wall could be captured by Bandak, and the second city wall guarding the noble quarter could resist any attack by the rebels. ? What's more, most of the defenders were deployed in the outer city. Although the outer city fell, most of them still held their positions and resisted. The troops remaining within the second city wall, except for the imperial guards loyal to the royal family, Only a few hundred garrisons remained.

If this is the second time Sophie takes most of the soldiers out to give away the heads, there may be hundreds of standing troops, but because of Sophie's strength to give away the heads, the main force of the Kingdom Army will basically be defeated by Bandak.

When he thinks of Sophie, his pig teammate, King Lawrence is so angry that he can beat the rebel striker led by Baden before, but he was forced to retreat with less victory and more. If it weren't for Bandak's lead. Entering Ravana ~lightnovelpub.net~ he may also be prepared to conceal the war report and stay outside. But after Bandak arrived in Ravana, he returned to the capital to explain to Lawrence and others the reason for the defeat, and repeatedly stated that by giving him another chance, he would be able to defeat Bandak in the first battle and lift the crisis of the royal family.

For Burris’s sake, King Lawrence chose to believe him and allowed him to bring the army he finally conscripted to meet Bandak. In order to express his trust in him, Burris asked to join the army, but he did not expect to die there. On the **** battlefield.

In that battle, the main force of the Kingdom Army commanded by Sophie was easily defeated by the experienced Bandak. When the infantry on both sides were caught in a fierce battle, Bandak personally led the cavalry team around the back and launched a fierce charge to the flank of the Kingdom Army, breaking the kingdom's front in one fell swoop , Even the flanking commander Burris died under the horses of the cavalry. Then, they charged the Chinese army where Sophie was. Faced with the charge of the cavalry of the brigade, Sophie's face was earth-colored, and immediately fled on horseback. The coach's escape caused the whole army to fall into chaos, and then it became a complete defeat.

Count Sophie, who abandoned the soldiers and escaped privately, was overtaken by Bandak's cavalry on the way to escape and was captured alive and returned to the camp.

At the end of the memory, King Lawrence, who was alone in the Temple of the Magic Deer, knelt and looked at the statue of the Magic Deer. He prayed to the gods and prayed that in this crisis, an army loyal to the royal family would come to rescue him. .
