Chapter 316: Secret Entry into Chencang

The army camped on the hillside where Kaimen City could be seen from afar. Through the telescope, it can be clearly seen that the soldiers on the city wall were facing a great enemy, and some officers looked out with telescopes.

"Your Highness, the enemy army seems to have no movement."

Viola put down the telescope and turned back to find that it was Greta who called her just now.

"Yes, I hope they will move. It will be difficult to deal with it if they completely retreat now."

The Kaimen City originally had 20,000 defenders, plus 90,000 defeated troops who fled here, which is equivalent to five or six times the number of Viola.

But perhaps the psychological shadow before was too strong. Viola's army camped outside the city in a swagger, and the other side didn't even send anyone to take a look.

This is actually not a good thing. Completely retreating to defend, Viola does not have enough hard power to pry open this tortoise shell, and now she can only be embarrassed.

Anyway, they just need to hold on until the other three countries' coalition forces send people to encircle Viola. If Viola does not take over Kaimen City as a foothold by then, the territory they have taken back now will be lost again.

"The supplies from Qihang City have just been counted and distributed."

Count Fran has only one child. She has been trained as an heir since childhood and knows some military tactics, but she is more outstanding in internal affairs and logistics. She mainly serves as a quartermaster in the army.

"In addition, the navy has assembled in the sea near Kaimen City and can blast open the water gate at any time to assist in the siege."

Viola opened her palms and closed them at Kaimen City from a distance. Because it is large near and small far away, the huge Kaimen City seems to be held in her palm between her fingers.

"If possible, I hope to get it as intact as possible. The navy's participation in the battle is the last choice."

Kaimen City directly connects to the Subia Demon Kingdom and the Tandelong Demon Kingdom, and also echoes the fallen capital from a distance. It is very likely to be attacked head-on by the four-nation coalition.

If it is seriously damaged, it may not be repaired before the coalition arrives.

In other words, not only must it be taken, but it must be taken intact to ensure that its defensive performance does not decline.

This sounds a bit unrealistic.

The Avarus are a greedy clan. When they set goals, they will set them very high to ensure that they can maximize their benefits.

It is not a good quality to be ambitious, but what if this is really possible?

Greta looked at Viola who picked up the telescope again and asked tentatively:

"Does the king have any comments?"

"We can't always rely on the king, and the king seems to be very busy recently."

Viola said without turning her head:

"I heard from the king that He is busy celebrating the New Year recently."

"Nian?"

"It seems to be a monster that appears on certain days. Even the gods have to cheer up to deal with it. It must be an extremely powerful monster."

I always feel that they have some misunderstanding about the word New Year.

But Greta really believed it. She said:

"Recently, many priests of gods have not been able to get responses or divine arts. I think this is a good opportunity for the king to expand his faith. It would be even better if he could take the opportunity to show more miracles."

"Indeed, although he is very busy, the king also said that he would take the time to intervene when necessary."

"Praise the king's kindness."

Greta said this, but in fact she was not very pious.

On the one hand, Count Fran sent Greta to Viola to show his feelings. Sending the only heir here is the same as offering a pledge of loyalty.

On the other hand, Greta can also make herself familiar with Viola.

In today's Avarus Demon Kingdom, the government officials are basically finished. Even if the country is restored in the future, the administrative structure must be rebuilt.

And not everyone can be an official. In this world where the literacy rate does not exceed 10%, knowledge is basically monopolized by the nobles. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to become officials.

Then, when Viola was short of manpower after the restoration of the country, she would definitely not let Greta sit idle.

Greta herself knew her father's intentions. She completed every task assigned by Viola perfectly, and also catered to her preferences, concentrating on studying the church scriptures of the Demon King God Cult. Even if she was not interested in believing in a certain god, she forced herself to read, watch and pray, at least in front of Viola, she felt like a devout believer.

Looking at the city wall again, Viola turned around and said:

"Let's go, we have to arrange for the siege."

Using the navy to blast open the port gate and rush into the city is the last choice, but we must also prepare for the worst.

"I hope the people in the city can bring good news..."

–--——---——

The simplest and most classic way to capture a city with strong defenses is nothing more than internal and external cooperation.

Kaimen City was originally a fortress city operated by the Avarus Demon Kingdom for hundreds of years, and the Avarus family has not produced any tyrants for hundreds of years, so the citizens in the city still have a high degree of favorability towards Viola.

For the same reason, they definitely don't like invaders.

In just a few months, although the Subia Demon Kingdom has controlled Kaimen City, it has not been able to win the hearts of the people.

According to the information sent by Qihang City, there is a resistance force gathering underground in Kaimen City, hoping to drive away the invaders.

If you want to take over this city completely, you have to send someone to contact them first.

But even if you want to send a few people in first, it is not an easy task.

When Viola's army appeared in the sight of the Gate City, they had already closed all the city gates and opened the anti-teleportation barrier.

All teleportation from outside the city to the city will be blocked, and it is a pipe dream to want to enter by teleportation.

At the same time, this barrier can also prevent any magic-based flight, and flying in by the white dragon is also impossible.

However, there is still a little way.

Several passages used for processing fresh fish in the port area can lead directly to the city. Although there are definitely soldiers guarding, Alde said that I can use group invisibility to bring people in, but the number cannot be too large.

Among the candidates for infiltration, Alde must go. In addition, it is best to choose a new face who rarely shows up in front of outsiders to avoid being recognized after entering the city.

And they must have a certain ability to protect themselves, and they can escape in the worst case.

So the candidates became Alde, Wendy's housekeeper Reina, and the white dragon Renia, who has nothing to do and sleeps in the carriage every day after eating.

"Ew, although it was my suggestion, the fishy smell is more exaggerated than I thought."

Auldai sniffed the smell on her body and immediately felt that she should not have mixed with it.

"Ms. Auldai, I brought perfume, you can try it."

Reina is indeed a perfect housekeeper, she even brought this thing.

Rhenia didn't care about the fishy smell at all, she was even a little hungry...
