Chapter 191 (1/2)

The Lightning God's Whip was tense as they repaired the Southwestern wall of Thunder City The few hundred captive Roland soldiers hipped and forced to gather large rocks to strengthen the city wall At the saate and to pile up nuate

Sieg was undoubtedly a very harsh person; he showed no compassion to the captive Roland soldiers That hy his subordinates, the Lightning God's Whip, also did not hesitate to fiercely whip any of the prisoners ere slow

Sieg could not be considered cruel It was just ridiculous to show sympathy for those who invaded his homeland

While the Southwestern as being repaired, on the e troop of Roland cavalry wasevery effort to rush in

Earlier on, after Sieg's soldiers had broken through the second northern line of Roland defense, the Supreme Commander of the Coalition Armies of the Roland Continent in Pa defeated soldiers

At that tiing cliff

In his rage, he cut down the defeated officer into two and angrily ordered the Holy Knights, at all costs, to immediately return to the Thunder City

No matter what, Thunder City must be recaptured

If Thunder City was captured by the eneer and his main army lose their only escape route, their supply line would also be cut off

”Noe can only hope that our last stronghold on the road to the north, can stop the Lightning God's Whip!” Tiger sighed, ”Perhaps, ill be able to catch up After all, we have nearly a hundred thousand soldiers in Thunder City It would not be so easy for the Lightning God's Whip to win Even if the E us from behind, they are unlikely to capture our e warfare is not the cavalry's strong point”

Tiger had forgotten that the Holy Knights he sent out were also cavalries If Thunder City was lost then could those powerful Holy Knights recapture it?

Three Senior Knights led tens of thousands of Holy Knights forward They were only a few dozen ht in front of the the way, they found that the two earlier strongholds had already been broken through by the Radiant Empire ars were found

”Speed up! We will reach the Thunder City by nightfall!” One of the Senior Knights shouted

The last stronghold was about ten miles south of Thunder City Situated across the road was the last line of defense, originally arranged by Tiger as a guarded gateway However, the ones that were currently stationed here were the five thousand Lightning God's Whip left behind by Sieg

Their uard that place for a day More than half a day had passed since His Excellency Sieg gave the order They only needed to guard that place for a few more hours and their mission would have been completed

The co God's Whip, was a Grade 4 swords of the horses in the distance he realized that the Roland army had arrived!

The large trees on both sides of the roads had already been cut down and the soldiers had placed those trees on the main road Xavi was certain that the Roland are cavalry The people of Roland Continent would be eager to recapture Thunder City In order to move quickly, they would despatch their hts

Xavi knew that it would be iht head-on against tens of thousands of Holy Knights on the wide main road They used the Roland army's fortification and the trees they had just cut down to forht not be able to prevent a large group of infantry froe

In fact, Xavi's actions were desperate He knew that his troop of five thousand soldiers would not win this battle He only wanted to delay the eneer the Roland army remained there the better That was because new defenses would need to be deployed at Thunder City, which they had just captured

The longer he held out, the stronger the defenses of Thunder City

Xavi saw the vanguard of the Holy Knights approaching He and his five thousand warriors had also long abandoned their horses They hid behind the defenses and waited patiently

The Holy Knights soon found that there were obstacles blocking the road They had no choice but to stop They dismounted and proceeded on foot with their shi+elds ready

The battle started all of a sudden as a volley of arrows rained doithout warning

At that er needed to e on ahead or should we retreat?

Tiger placed a gag order on the information that Thunder City had been attacked The only people who kneere all the highest ranked generals

After that, the representatives of the coalition ardoe tent of the Supreme Commander

There were two factions arguing The first faction was of the opinion that the whole army should set out to recapture Thunder City That was because it is their only escape route and also their supply route

The other faction felt that they should ignore Thunder City They felt that they should ith and confront the main army of the Radiant Empire Once their eneer be important as they could then obtain as much supplies as they need fro as the main army of the Radiant Empire was defeated, then they would also be able to take advantage and break through the defenses on Pa cities in the North and the problem of supplies would be solved

The military officer who adhered to that faction was very bold His reasoning was that since they had sent a cavalry to attack Thunder City, then itGod's Whip They should take advantage of the fact that the Lightning God's Whip was not around to defeat the main army of the Empire

Tiger felt very conflicted In his heart, he actually preferred the latter solution

Go back, immediately? Would the enemy's main army just allow hundreds of thousands of our troop to fall back so easily? They would definitely not let go! They would tail us! The current military supplies would last for only ten more days Of course, if an order to liiven, then it would last for more than twenty days

Within a twenty-days time frame, tens of thousands of his army had to recapture Thunder City The journey back would also take up a few days as not all of the soldiers were cavalry There were infantries and also the slow supply carriages After that, they would need to break past the solid city wall guarded by the Lightning God's Whip

Could all this be accomplished in twenty days?

But, Tiger was surprised that the Holy Knights insisted on returning to Thunder City Paladin Fielding, in particular, was especially insistent and unyielding

Tiger could, perhaps, ignore the noisy representatives of the shts represent the Teer needed to consider carefully

As a result, he had no choice but to first dispatch the Holy Knights to quickly advance to Thunder City However, Tiger knew that even if he does not give the order, the Holy Knights would have gone there on their own

Fifty thousand Holy Knights had already set out for two days, yet Tiger still refused to withdraw

In front of them was the entire force of the eneh that line of defense, then the big piece of land in the North behind the defense line, Kaka City, the capital of the Northern Province there would no longer be any defense in the North

As long as they occupied the opponent's Northern province, then the problem of supplies in the army would be resolved When that time comes, they would think of ways to recapture Thunder City After all, they would still get reinforcements from Roland Continent and it would not be difficult then to capture Thunder City with a pincer attack

Tiger persevered for two days In those two days, he ordered his soldiers to attack the E line of defense

One after another, the infantry regied in However, the soldiers of the Eer realized that the E to delay hiave up and were forced to withdraw Then, his opponent would have won

The defenses at Pamir Plain were attacked by wave after wave of Roland soldiers Tiger hardened his heart and dispatched the elite soldiers of Sauron Kingdoer tried to conserve his er warranted that

The Sauron Kingdodoer codoms

Groups after groups of soldiers sacrificed their lives at the Empire's defense line The trenches in the defense line were filled with corpses

Meanwhile, in the Duke's tent behind the defensive line, Randt sat there gloo off his hair
