Chapter 343 The Beginning of the End of the War

Huangshi City, in the royal palace,

This is the core palace of the royal palace. It is full of brilliant colors. Even the stone walls are covered with a thin layer of gold. There are gorgeous patterns carefully carved by skilled craftsmen and matched with huge crystals. The chandelier reflects a different style on the spotless black marble floor tiles.

In the center of the palace is a throne on three levels of stairs. On the pure gold throne decorated with various gems, pearls and crystals, the person sitting upright is cursing.

"Damn guys!"

"You damn pigs, didn't you promise us before that the Fessians would retreat soon?"

"How long has this been, how long has it been!"

"They are outside the city now! Outside the city!"

"I can't sleep well every day now. I'll give you whatever you want, and then show me this result!"

"You XXXXX guys, I can't wait to hack you to death!"

John Berdych's face was gloomy, but the luxurious clothes on his bloated body and the huge crown did not give him any aura of a king. Instead, the furious figure twisting on the throne made people feel like A fat pig that has been hungry for a long time and goes crazy has no deterrent power at all in a magnificent palace.

The ministers below looked disgraced and wiped the non-existent saliva on their faces. One of them said with a flattering smile:

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the army of the Kingdom of Fes has been firmly blocked by our army ten kilometers outside Huangshi City. They cannot penetrate our defense line at all."

"Moreover, our elite forces transferred from all over the country are gradually arriving. When the time is right, we will be able to drive these hateful Feisians back and even regain the western territories!"

Looking at his subordinates' solemn promises, John didn't believe it.

I was really tricked by these ministers before!

At the beginning, "It's okay. The Kingdom of Fes only needs a sneak attack to defeat our kingdom's army. Please don't worry, Your Majesty."

Later, he said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this is just a minor accident. The kingdom's army and the territorial nobles have not fought for some days. We will soon be able to regain our strength and fight back."

Then he said, "Although there are some disadvantages on the frontal battlefield, our soldiers are fighting desperately and have achieved rare victories on some battlefields!"

Then, the army of the Fes Kingdom went directly to Huangshi City, the royal capital.

King Berdych woke up from a dream and realized how bad the situation had become.

If the following ministers had not been nobles of the Kingdom of Berdych for generations, John would have doubted whether these people had been bribed by the Kingdom of Fes.

Yes, the ministers of the Berdych Kingdom are all people from various noble families. Apart from this, there are no ministers from civilian or even middle-level backgrounds.

As a result, these ministers are actually the same as John. They are proficient in eating, drinking and having fun, but know nothing about doing practical things.

If the king and these nobles hadn't known the importance of mastering power and had been cultivating extraordinary professionals under their command, the Berdych Kingdom would have been in chaos.

Therefore, no longer able to trust the judgment of these nobles, John directly ordered all the fighting troops and noble escorts in the kingdom to be brought to Huangshi City, such as the navy on the east coast.

This was a devastating blow to the order in other parts of the kingdom. There had been a lot of chaos during this period, but John did not hesitate and still insisted on his own way.

In his opinion, other places were unimportant. The most important thing was to defend Huangshi City.

For a kingdom, the fall of the royal capital is unacceptable. Even as stupid as he is, he knows that once it reaches that point, it will be difficult to organize forces to take back the royal capital based on the "good" image of the Berdych royal family in the hearts of the people. .

"It better be like you said!"

John Berdych stood up angrily and walked back to play with his beauties.

The more times like this, the more dissolute and unrestrained he becomes, venting his uneasiness and fear in this way.

The ministers in the palace also looked at each other in silence, got up and left in twos and threes.

There is no way, for ministers like them who came from great nobles, they are good at intrigues and flattery, but when it comes to these military and national affairs, they are blind.

In fact, their power as extraordinary professionals is enhanced through precious treasures, so they can only bully servants and ordinary people.

I don't blame them for not being able to do it. In fact, His Majesty the King above them also has the same virtue.

However, there are never a few "smart people". Several of the ministers who left have quietly gathered together, seemingly preparing to discuss something.

Jinsen Town, twenty kilometers outside Huangshi City,

This was once the territory of a viscount, but now it has been turned into a huge military camp.

The army of the Kingdom of Fes is stationed here. Unlike the lax military discipline of the army of the Kingdom of Berdych, most of the soldiers here are practicing hard. The sweat on their bodies under the scorching sun has completely soaked their clothes, even if they are standing guard in the distance. The soldiers were also in high spirits and paid close attention to every passing pedestrian.

It's not surprising that they were like this. There was really too much wealth plundered along the way, so much that the nobles and officers took away most of it, and the rest was enough for the soldiers to get a satisfactory harvest.

That's why the army of the Kingdom of Fes has such high morale.

After many days of fighting, the army was also preparing to retrain and train for a period of time, which happened to be the time to digest the previous gains.

The previous one wasn't even a war. The resistance the Fez army encountered before was like a child wielding a long sword and charging at a heavily armored knight. He couldn't hold the long sword and dropped it before he touched it. He dropped it and hit himself.

It really surprised the Fez army.

It wasn't until the battle line advanced to Huangshi City that they encountered strong enough resistance.

The Berdych royal mage group and the large number of troops have caused enough trouble for the Fez army. When the attack for a period of time has not yielded any gains, but has suffered considerable losses, it is not surprising that they chose to temporarily retire for a period of time.

In the Viscount Castle in the center of Jinson Town, the former owner has disappeared. It is now the command post of the Kingdom of Fes's army.

Duke Baird and Duke Ram stood in front of the map of the Berdych Kingdom, discussing the recent situation.

As the dukes on the eastern border of the Kingdom of Fes and the first nobles to attack the Kingdom of Berdych, the two of them were naturally one of the commanders of this aggressive war against the Kingdom of Berdych.

Of course, the apparent excuse must still be revenge for the Berdych Kingdom's attack on the nobles on Saint's Day, but the Berdych Kingdom was about to be destroyed in this "little" revenge.

Although Duke Baird and Duke Ram had the highest titles, they were no longer the two leading the scene.

The leader of the Golden Lion Knights of the Kingdom of Fes, Bevis Millar, was sitting on the main seat, frowning.

Duke Baird and Duke Ram have no objections to this. Although they have more soldiers under their command, they cannot be the opponent of the Golden Lion Knights, the strongest legion in the kingdom. Not to mention that Bevis is here to represent Mo His Majesty King Don Fes commanded this war.

Similarly, after the two people who conspired with the second prince Atian Fes found out that they had not received any news from the second prince, they couldn't help but feel guilty and did not dare to say anything.

After Bivis led the Golden Lion Knights to the frontal battlefield, the two of them simply chose to follow Bivis' command.

Of course, Bivis also respected these two, after all, their status and power were not weak.

"According to the information received, the Berdych Kingdom is already using all its forces to continuously gather towards Huangshi City."

Duke Baird frowned and said to Beavis.

Like Duke Ram, he had long been prepared to invade the Berdych Kingdom, and the secret spies had naturally made many arrangements.

Naturally, the situation of so many professionals and troops moving towards Huangshi City could not be hidden from them.

"This is a fight to the death!"

Duke Ram also has some headaches. To be honest, the previous war was so easy, more because of the problems of the Berdych Kingdom itself. But at the moment when the country is about to be destroyed, no matter how old the kingdom's machine is, it will reluctantly start to turn around and try to escape. The fate of destruction.

This is the situation that the Kingdom of Fes and others are facing now. Whether it is the organization, morale or overall quality of the army, the Kingdom of Fes has the upper hand.

But after all, they were fighting in the Berdych Kingdom, and now the opponent began to simply look at the number of people and their own consumption, which made them a little unbearable.

That would be fine if it was just like this, but now the opponent's royal mage group appeared on the frontal battlefield and began to bombard the Fez army indiscriminately.

Although the army's casualties were not very large due to the desperate interception by our own mages, the impact on morale and the progress of the war was still great.

For war, unless they reach the legend, extraordinary professionals will not have a decisive impact on the battle situation.

Extraordinary professionals are stronger than ordinary people, but how many people can they kill on the battlefield at most before they can be killed by cold arrows from behind?

But there are two exceptions, one is a warrior professional and the other is a mage professional.

The warrior profession is because there are the largest number of warriors, and it is the super profession with the largest number of extraordinary professions.

Therefore, warriors are the only extraordinary professionals who can possibly form legions, such as the Golden Lion Knights led by Beavis.

The extraordinary professionals who formed the organizational system were enough to suppress a war situation, and this was where Beavis' confidence lay.

The other one is the mage profession.

As an extraordinary professional, it would be okay if it was a small team of several people, but cooperation between hundreds or even thousands of professionals would be extremely difficult.

Except for the Guardian Knights of the Church of the Gods and the army that is mainly composed of warriors and other extraordinary professionals, the others are basically just a bunch of people. From the beginning of the battle, it becomes a pot of porridge, each fighting on its own.

But the mages are different. They are like the fort, capable of pouring out terrifying firepower before their magic power is exhausted.

Gold-level mages are also extraordinary professionals with the most terrifying influence on the battlefield!

Therefore, in every battle, the mage is the main target of the opponent's attention. Whoever disables the opponent's mage first will have a better chance of winning.

It is a pity that the Royal Mage Group of the Kingdom of Fes needs to guard the Bright City and deal with possible threats from other directions. This time, not many people came to the Berdych battlefield with Bivis.

Beavis had a headache, but he was not completely helpless. The worst he could do was risk his life!

The magic power of mages is limited. Although it is fast to kill ordinary people, it is different for extraordinary professionals.

But this was the worst of the worst. Beavis did not want to use this method when facing the Berdych Kingdom.

The number of mages has always been the smallest. If they find a way to eliminate this group of mages, even the Berdych royal family will have a hard time replenishing it from other places.

"How about arranging a team of assassins for a sneak attack?"

Duke Ram proposed a solution that was not a solution, but it was quickly rejected by Beavis.

"It makes no sense. Now the number of troops from the Berdych Kingdom on the battlefield has greatly exceeded ours. Although their strength is very average, there should be no problem in detaching a team to protect the mage group without participating in frontal battles. "

"I don't think the Berdychs didn't even notice this, so I really have to thank them."

Bevis shook his head, not wanting to pin the initiative on the battlefield on the stupidity of the opponent's commander.

"We have been dragging it here for so long. According to the previous plan, other areas have already been cleaned."

"Now it is indeed time to take Huangshi City and continue to advance."

Duke Baird's face was calm, but he pointed out the difficulties faced by several people present.

The fact that the Fes Kingdom army stayed outside Huangshi City for so long was not because of nothing.

When they were in a stalemate here, they detached a part of the army to raid the occupied Berdych Kingdom area and suppress all resistance teams. On the other hand, they collected all kinds of food and supplies.

There is nothing that can be done about this, it is really going too smoothly.

I knew the Berdych Kingdom was bad, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad.

Along the way, the welcoming attitude of the people of the Berdych Kingdom was only as good as the food in the pot to welcome the king's master!

Yes, it went so smoothly that the Kingdom of Fes didn't react at all, and it was not even prepared to transport supplies over long distances.

Even if the Kingdom of Fes urgently called some space storage rings and sent some supplies, it was not enough to support the army's continued advancement.

There is no way. The purpose of the Kingdom of Fes is to completely control the territory of the Kingdom of Berdych. With such an outstanding predecessor as the Kingdom of Berdych, it will not be difficult at all as long as the army of the Kingdom of Fes performs better.

Therefore, without being able to plunder and plunder civilians, the food obtained from the castles of the nobles of the Berdych Kingdom was pitiful. Therefore, the army could only stand in a stalemate here until the material transportation line was established.

The good news is that the first wave of supplies will be delivered in the next few days!

The bad news is that Beavis and the others can only watch as the Berdych Kingdom desperately mobilizes troops from other areas of the kingdom.

Just when the three people at the scene were silent, a messenger ran in, saluted and said:

"General Bevis, there is an acquaintance looking for you outside the military camp!"

"He calls himself Marquis Lis Cain!"
