Chapter 90 The Siege Begins
In the sky green city, Eagle King McAllen paced back and forth in the room with a letter tightly held.
He held Eliot's urgent letter of help. The news of Tiansuo Pass defeat caused several white feathers to be added to the temples of the Eagle King overnight.
The Sky Blue Eagle has always been among the three major tribes of the Wasteland. Unlike the Golden Lion and the Blood Flame Wolf to overthrown the Wasteland, McAllen never thought of occupying the Orcs' Court, because the orcs on the Wasteland would not accept the Winged Man becoming the Lord of the Wasteland. It is precisely for this reason that the Sky Blue Eagle rarely gets involved in wars on the Wasteland.
This time, McAllon just thought it was profitable and wanted to win more territory for the Winged Tribe before he took the initiative to provoke a war against Horow. Now he regretted tying the interests of the Sky Blue Eagle with the golden lion.
Although the Tiansuo Pass was defeated, the Tianqing Winged Man's losses were far less than the Golden Lion, 150,000 Winged Man's soldiers have died in Isaac's land since the beginning of the war. The losses of the 150,000 warriors may not be considered a damage to the Golden Lion and the Blood Flame Wolf, but for the Tianqing Eagle, which has the fewest number of warriors, it is considered a damage to the muscles.
What made McArron depressed was that even if he paid such a big price, he might still be in vain in the end.
The content of Elliot's request for help was to allow the Sky Green Eagle to reinforce another 100,000 warriors. If there was no reinforcement, the human land that Elliot promised to the Sky Green Eagle might be difficult to defend. If there was reinforcement, McAllen was worried that the battle of Tiansuo Pass would be repeated again, and then he would be in vain and be in tears.
At this moment, the Eagle King's guard chief Kunting walked in with a letter, "Your Majesty, a message from the Orcs' Court."
McAllen exclaimed lightly, "Didn't Elliot's letter of help just sent me last night? Another letter from the royal court this morning. Is the battle situation ahead so unbearable?"
"Your Majesty, the Orcs Court's Great Highness Walls, whose signature is the Golden Lion, said that Leon's sacred lion and a human cavalry have already arrived at the city of Tugandra, and hope that we will send troops to rescue him."
This letter of help finally helped the Eagle King make up his mind.
McAllen stood up with his eyebrows and spoke slowly, "If the golden lion himself can't even defend the royal court, then it's time for the royal court to change its new master."
......
Eliot would never give up his efforts. If he did not want to be nailed to the pillar of shame in orc history, he would have to defend these human lands west of Red Rock City.
On the basis of restraining the defeated soldiers, Eliot urgently asked for help from the Eagle King, and on the other hand, recruited soldiers on the spot. Many enfeoffed orc tribes have begun to migrate in large quantities on the land west of Hongyan City. These tribes have become Eliot's most convenient military base, and they have recruited 50,000 new soldiers in a short time.
When the Lion King Elliot reorganized troops to make a final resistance in the Red Rock City area, Leon and Arthur were already sharpening their swords and preparing to take action against Tugandra.
On the way back, Elliot received news that Leon and Arthur were at the city, but on the one hand he had no time to take care of it, and on the other hand, he didn't think that Leon's tens of thousands of troops could break through the orc court.
Although Tugandra is not known for her steep city defense, she cannot easily defeat her by tens of thousands of warriors. Moreover, the orc nobles in the city still have a large number of powerful guards, so they will never sit idly by and watch outsiders attack the royal court and rob their private property. His biggest reliance is the Totem Venerable Lifeng Lion King. Uncle Lifeng has been practicing in the Golden Lion Ancestral Hall for many years and will never tolerate others from being involved in the royal court.
Elliot calculated the orc nobles and the Lifeng Lion King correctly, but he still missed the points.
It would be understandable if the Temple, which has never interfered with the Orc Civil War, did not interfere in this war. He never expected that the Eagle King McAllen would sit idly by. The most important thing he missed was that Leon and Arthur were not as simple as tens of thousands of warriors.
The Orcs and Kings' siege was initiated a few days later at night, and it is best for the undead creatures to exert their maximum power at night.
Leon's army of sacred lions lined up in an orderly manner towards the south gate of Tugandra.
The defending guards had already made sufficient preparations for the attack of the Holy Lion Army. A rapid sound of horns sounded at the head of Tugandra, and a group of elite orc warriors rushed to the head of the city. The catapults were slammed on the walls. The giant crossbows were already full of bowstrings. They just waited for the Holy Lion Army to enter the best range and then shot thousands of arrows at the same time.
The wounds on his body had recovered a little, and the general Sar stood on the city tower. He stared at the approaching army in a cold look. The moment he should come, but he was confident that he would pay nearly 10,000 casualties before Leon's army rushed to the city.
Surprisingly, Marshal Sar did not wait for the spectacular scene of the crossbows behind him, because Leon's army suddenly stopped before it was about to enter the range.
The battlefield suddenly entered a long and strange period of silence. Both sides were ready to go but did not fire the first shot for a long time.
"What the hell is Leon trying to do?" Thrall became uneasy first.
Without any signs, there were suddenly bursts of shouts of killing in the city behind him, accompanied by the shouts of killing and several places in the city.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Thrall's mouth, and he was not surprised at all about the movement in the city. Leon, who is also a member of the Golden Lion, must have many insiders in the city. It is too simple to think about Leon.
"The order was sent to the temporary recruitment of noble guards to assist the city guards in suppressing the rebellion, and arranged two teams of elite winged soldiers to support them everywhere." Thrall calmly issued the order.
Leon's army outside the city did not take the opportunity to attack the city, and remained motionless in front of the formation. The shouts of killing in the city continued. As time went by, the shouts of killing became closer and closer to the city wall, and the fire points in the city were also increasing.
Thrall's brows were gradually frowning, "What are those wastes doing? Is the situation in the city still not under control?"
At this moment, an orc hero flew over quickly, "Master, something is wrong! The army of the Holy Lion is coming in!"
"What? Say it again!" Thrall grabbed the orc hero armor collar that came to report the news.
"It's not the rebels in the city, but the army of the Holy Lion! Tens of thousands of soldiers have already entered, and the guards arranged in the city are almost unable to withstand it!"
"Impossible, where did Leon come from, and where did they come from?" Marshal Thal stared at the army outside the city and shouted in disbelief.
"Send the fourth-tier soldiers guarding the city to reinforce quickly. If you wince and fail to kill the former, you must not let the army entering the city attack the city gate." Although Thrall couldn't figure it out, he still responded. After all, the army entering the city could not be fake.
The frequent mobilization of the troops at the top of Tugandra's city wall could not be hidden from Leon outside the city. A smile appeared on his lips, "Sar may be in chaos at this time, right? What's going on with the human army in the North City?"
"Nothing has happened yet."
Leon exclaimed lightly and thought anxiously: "Does this guy Arthur want to make me do it?"
