Chapter 355 Internal and external difficulties, the crisis in the capital!

The sound of artillery resounding through the capital awakened the generals and citizens from their sleep. After five days, the fear of war once again filled everyone's hearts.

Regarding the war outside the city, the people in the capital were divided into two situations.

Those more pious believers prayed from the bottom of their hearts that the messengers of the great lord could expel the evil and return the Kingdom of Hadrata to the embrace of the lord, while the rest fell into panic and confusion.

At the same time, in a courtyard of the palace, Lin En and others, who were discussing the counterattack plan, also received an urgent notification from the attendants-the crusade army of the Holy See outside the city suddenly launched a large-scale attack. The priests have already been dispatched, and Sanchez who is stationed urgently asks them to send more manpower to support them, otherwise the city gate is likely to fall.

"They came so fast, it seems that they are already waiting anxiously before we do anything!" Raphael said with a sneer.

"But it's only been five days, since Adwell dares to do something, he must rely on something!" Adela frowned, guessing worriedly.

Before the crusading army retreated in a disastrous defeat, leaving behind more than 20,000 corpses, he thought that the opponent would need to rest for at least ten days and a half months before launching the second wave of offensive, but he did not expect it to come so quickly.

"I received news earlier that a support army of about 40,000 people has arrived at the capital city and joined the crusade army. I think they are probably planning to use the cover of night to launch a general attack." Lynn mused.

"In this way, the advantages of our new weapons will be weakened..." Everyone present immediately realized the problem.

The range and power of muskets and artillery have always been the basis for them to easily defeat the imperial army and achieve an excess casualty ratio. Now that their field of vision is limited, musketeers and artillerymen cannot effectively strike the enemy at long distances.

Once entering hand-to-hand combat, these temporary signs show that the musketeers who have only been trained for a few months are absolutely impossible to be the elite opponents of the Holy See, and may even be directly defeated.

Thinking of this, Raphael said eagerly. "In other words, the number of enemies outside the city may exceed 100,000. We must immediately send reinforcements to Sanchez and the others!"

Since Sanchez took the initiative to ask for support, it means that the situation is very urgent, and the plans they made alone are far from enough to deal with the powerful offensive of the Holy See crusade.

Lynn nodded, looked around the conference hall, and then asked five great wizards including Anthony and Adela to lead two hundred official wizards to the city gate for support.

In addition to this, 5,000 musketeers and 10,000 imperial guards will be dispatched...

"Is this a little less? I remember that there are at least 7,000 musketeers in the capital." Adela asked puzzled.

They trained about 30,000 musketeers, 18,000 of whom were responsible for defending the city, and they were rotated three times a day to ensure that their combat effectiveness could all be put into the battlefield when necessary.

The remaining 5,000 people are used as a reserve force to support at any time, which is the manpower that Lynn is currently dispatching.

In addition, there are 7,000 people scattered throughout the capital, 4,000 people guarding granaries, ammunition depots, and various key nodes, and 3,000 people are still available...even more extreme, it is completely possible to Those defending also went into battle.

The number of enemies may be beyond imagination, and any power is very important now, and these people can completely use them.

"No, the army guarding the capital can no longer be mobilized. They need to be responsible for maintaining the stability in the city!" Lynn said firmly. "Also inform Alex and the others to let the airship go into the air, get rid of those arsonist Griffin Knights, and then support the frontline battle, that should be enough!"

Compared with Raphael and others who experienced such a large-scale war for the first time, Lynn is still extremely calm in the face of such a crisis.

Although the crusading army of the Holy See is menacing, he knows that it will never be so easy to capture the royal city from the front!

The city wall of the king's capital is eighteen meters high, and it has been reinforced by magic, and there are hundreds of wizards to help defend it. No matter how much power Adwell puts in, he will definitely be smashed.

On the contrary, it is necessary to reserve a part of the new force in the capital, otherwise, once there is internal chaos, it is easy to cause a chain reaction, and the whole line will be defeated!

"Okay, since you insist." Adela shook her head, but didn't say anything else, and immediately stood up with Anthony and the others, calling a group of wizards to rush to support, without daring to delay for a moment.

Rafael, who stayed behind, was a little worried about whether air combat in the dark would affect the performance of the airship. Although laser transmitters had been installed on each airship, how to aim was a problem.

"It doesn't matter, day and night are the same for them!" Lynn said, but he didn't mean to explain in depth, and then called Ai Luoke, and asked him to turn on the power device located in the Alchemy Research Institute.

Of course, he has also considered the possibility of night battles, so it's not like they haven't done nothing during the two months since they captured the capital. The crude electric lights researched a month ago were placed in various places in the streets of Wangdu.

However, since the reserved power is not sufficient, it has to be supplied to power-hungry consumers such as electromagnetic guns, so it has never been turned on. Now that Adwell is planning to launch a decisive battle, there is no need to save power!

Lynn thought about whether there was anything missing, and suddenly remembered something. "By the way, where are the speakers? It's been a few days, haven't they arrived yet?"

He remembered that before leaving the wizard's land, Harov had promised him that they would rush to [Hadra Tower] after they finished dealing with the affairs of the council.

After all, after the Holy See knows that the fall of the kingdom is related to the land of wizards, it is very likely that they will dispatch legendary forces. Unless these great wizards attack together, it will be difficult to compete with them.

"I heard that two speakers have left the Land of Wizards, but I don't know why they haven't arrived until now!" Raphael said hesitantly.

Procrastinated? Or is there something temporarily delayed?

Lynn thought to himself, wouldn't the Holy See send another army to attack the Land of Wizards at the same time?

Even so, they should have received some news...

But since Harov and the others haven't arrived yet, they can only rely on themselves tonight!
