"We withstood the enemy's night attack," Duke Andeff said in the camp, pointing to the map of this area, "and won a great victory."
Laurent and Master Masaphi stood in front of Duke Andeff.
"Your warriors are really admirable. You actually found traces of the enemy in such a late night." Duke Andev admired.
"That's ridiculous, Duke," Laurent raised his head, "I only know that we lost eleven warriors that night."
"Such casualties are acceptable." Duke Androff said.
Master Masaphi hammered the round table heavily and said, "We must withdraw our Leyton people on that line of defense."
Lauren nodded slowly.
There are only more than 300 Griffin clan warriors who came from the Kingdom of Leiden.
Eleven people were lost in last night's night attack, which is already considered very lucky. If there were a few more, and there was a little bit of misfortune, I'm afraid that when the Marton River City is completely defended, there will be very few Garda warriors left.
Prince Androff raised his eyebrows, his expression not good-looking.
There is no doubt that he arranged for nearly a hundred Redonians to guard the first line of defense, and also had the mentality of reducing the losses of his army.
Duke Androff was about to delay with clever words, when Lauren spoke.
"Duke, in fact, we Leyton people can abandon this city of Marton River." Laurent said calmly.
Duke Androff's eyes were stunned, and he looked at Lauren in disbelief.
"The unfinished iron mines in this city must be handed over to the king, 70% of the taxes must be paid, and an iron mine must be owned by the royal family,"
Lauren's tone was gentle, but there was no room for negotiation.
"We, the Leiden people, will have almost no benefit from occupying this place. We will have to suffer for this land. Many of our tribesmen are already clamoring to abandon this place and return to Myrn."
Once Lauren and his army leave Marton River City, the city's defenders will be reduced by a full third.
Duke Androff immediately thought of the consequences of Lauren's departure.
The Duke came to his senses and tried to promise: "I will draw money from the city's treasury to reward your warriors."
"That can't make up for our sacrifices." Master Masaphi glared, his beard trembling.
Once again seeing the ferocious fighting capabilities of the Leyton people, the Duke knew that losing this group of people would definitely be a heavy blow to his own morale, and the city of Marton River would definitely change hands again.
"Okay, I promise to send my elite troops to guard the defense line and bring your warriors back." The Duke sighed and said helplessly.

In the two days after the night attack by the Fudusan people, the plain in front of the stone bridge seemed peaceful.
The Leden people had withdrawn from the first line of defense, and those stationed there were replaced by Duke Andeff's soldiers.
After the night attack, the city fell into a chilling atmosphere. Everyone knew that the Fudusan people would organize another attack, but no one knew the exact time. They could only wait slowly. The time was so long and tortured. ..
On the mornings of the two days, the True Christian soldiers followed the arrangements of the officers, stood under the flag, and completed the oath and mass more enthusiastically each time.
Duke Andev organized the accompanying priests and asked them over and over again to declare that killing the Verdusan people was not considered murder, or that killing someone with the permission of the Lord would not only prevent them from going to hell, but also a seat in heaven waiting for them. them.
The soldiers wore chainmail and held weapons in their hands, preparing for the upcoming war in the stormy atmosphere.
Early on the third day, the Fudusan people organized a massive offensive.
As the sentry's horn sounded, Laurent and Duke Androff ascended to the top of the city.
From a distance, they saw a tall and abrupt triangular building rolling over the plains.
Two huge counterweight trebuchets, like slow giant beasts, marched step by step on the earth amidst the shouts, war cries, and sounds of war drums and horns of the Fudusan people.
There are several dwarf craftsmen guarding the top and bottom of the trebuchet.
It was the first time for the defenders of Marton River City to see such a huge trebuchet. As the trebuchet approached, the heart in the left chest trembled in panic. Even the people of Leiden, who had always been brave and fierce, were shocked. They looked at the trebuchet. machine, shouting over and over again in dialect, "Behemoth, monster!"
The horns of Marton River City were blown one after another, and Duke Andeff ordered the archers to bend their bows and set arrows. After giving the order, the arrows were scattered everywhere.
The Fudusan people had long expected such an offensive. The heavy infantrymen holding large shields walked in front, followed by tall ladders.
Arrows flew down, and many landed on the ground or on the infantry shields, as well as on the outer walls of the ladders.
"Don't be afraid of the enemy's arrows. With the blessing of the Lord, these Camillians can't hurt you at all. Don't forget, the Lord will not protect our enemies!"
Duke Coan, who directed the attack of the Fudusan people, was fully armed, holding a long sword, riding a tall horse, followed by several knights, repeating this sentence over and over to encourage the morale of the army.
The Fordusans were leaning on a giant beast-like counterweight trebuchet, which was a giant thing built by the dwarf craftsmen hired by the Duke of Coan's organization and the Fordusans craftsmen.
Duke Coan was quite satisfied with this. Based on his knowledge, he concluded that as long as the trebuchet entered the shooting range, the wall of Marton River City would be breached within a few days.
By then, the difficulty of siege will be greatly reduced.
The defenders of Marton River City were waiting in full formation. At this time, Duke Androff temporarily opened the city gate and sent people to rush to reinforce the guards on the defense line.
Another round of arrows flew past, harassing the Fudusan people.
The march of the Fudusan people did not slow down because of this. When the extremely huge counterweight trebuchet reached a certain distance, the Fudusan people collectively stopped and took a defensive posture.
Then, a strange silence fell on the battlefield.
The counterweighted trebuchet moved slowly, and its net was wrapped in a huge leather package, and something was hit inside.
Duke Coan gave an order, and the people in Fudusan who were pulling the trebuchet suddenly let go. Under the huge momentum, the leather package in the trebuchet flew out. It did not hit the city wall, but fell into the city, hitting There was a dull sound on the ground.
Just when everyone was feeling complacent that the trebuchet did not hit the city wall, the brave Leyton people approached the leather package.
Dosakko held his shield close to the leather package, and he smelled a foul stench coming from the package.
When he roared and opened the package, the contents of the package leaked out.
They were all broken limbs and remains, mixed with the smell of corpses, and flies and other flying insects came out, flapping their wings and surrounding them.
Dosak's face quickly turned pale, and he suddenly lost strength from his feet.
Among the severed limbs, the head of his younger brother Shaq fell weakly to the ground, his eyes widened and he stared at death.
