In the early morning of the Marsey Fort, the first ray of dawn in the east quietly rose from the treetops at the top of the hills. The soft morning light slowly moved from the walls east of the Marsey Fort to the west...

After a long dark night, on the valley trade road south of Fort Marce, the late summer wild flowers, which had been attacked by a night of low temperatures, slowly unfolded at this time. The bright red blood color on the petals was clearly visible, shaking under the morning breeze...

…………

"Report..."

In the northern Cordore Army Camp in Fort Marce, a rapid announcement broke the silence of the camp.

"What's the matter?" Earl Kodor slowly walked towards the camp gate while rubbing his sleepy eyes with his right hand.

Recently, Count Kodor, who was busy with military affairs, naturally lost the leisure he had on weekdays. He had not had a good sleep since the Battle of the Successor. If he had not been in the military camp at this time, if he had been in the weekdays, the person who disturbed him to rest so early would have been scolded to the ground and begged for mercy.

"Report to the Earl," said the messenger, looking at the exhausted Earl of Codor, "Just just now, a team suddenly rushed out of the north gate of Fort Marci. They did not carry their baggage. There were about a hundred people, and they ran desperately towards the mountain path in the east." The soldier paused and continued, "The people of the cavalry team rushed over when they saw this, but because of the rugged mountain road, their people could not continue to chase, so they had to dismount and chase after those people. The Knight ordered me to come back immediately to report to you."

"What! Running away" the Count was shocked.

"By the way, Lord Earl, those guys are running and throwing their armor, just like running away." The messenger added.

Earl Kodor held his chin and pondered for a moment...

"No! They are going to run!" Earl Kodor came to his senses and said. "Hurry, ask someone to lead one hundred and fifty people to chase me, and you must not let them run away." Earl waved his hand and said to the messenger, "In addition, gather the army immediately and set off for Fort Marsey, and send the remaining more than 200 cavalrymen to Fort Marsey immediately, block the guys in the city, and you can't let them run away anymore!" Earl Kodor issued an order in an orderly manner.

"Yes, Lord Earl." The messenger turned around and replied after receiving the order.

"Slow down!" Earl Kodor said to the messenger who turned around and walked a few steps, "There are no ones sent to the messenger in the south."

"Go back to the Count, not yet." The messenger turned around and said to the Count.

"No! Hurry up, send someone to contact the southern army immediately and order them to gather at the south gate of Fort Marci and join the northern army to encircle Fort Marci." Earl Kodor said excitedly, with a look of worry on his face, his eyebrows squeezed into a ball, and his eyes looked at the southern army base in the valleys in the mountains south of Fort Marci.

"Yes, Lord Earl."

…………

"Quick, follow up quickly and throw away all the useless things at me." Antaas said to the soldiers running at the end of the team on the mountain path east of Fort Marci.

Yesterday, Yat called him aside alone and assigned him the task: tomorrow morning, he took one hundred soldiers to run to the mountain path in the northeast, pretending to flee, leaving some of his personal belongings, and acting like he was about to escape. When Kodor sent his troops to pursue him, he led them to the encirclement of Bass and wiped out the group of Kodor soldiers to relieve the pressure on Fort Mars. After the battle, he returned to Fort Mars with Bass.

A moment ago, as Antayas and others left the northern city gate, the Kodor soldiers "discovered" them and immediately told the surrounding Kodor cavalry about this situation. More than 100 people were chased by the cavalry for a distance and fled into the jungle. Seeing this, the Kodor cavalry immediately dismounted and pursued, followed the soldiers of the Wells Legion, chasing them reluctantly, and sent people back to report to the Earl of Kodor to send troops to aid.

"TM, this group of bastards are chasing so tightly that they don't breathe in one breath." A soldier from the rear of the team bent down and supported his hands on his knees. While looking at the Kodor cavalry who were chasing behind him, he said to his companions around him.

"Yes, these bastards were the same as them the last time they entered the city, and this time they were still them. If Lord Antayas had not ordered not to have close contact with the enemy, I would have really wanted to rush up and kill those bastards!" Another Kodor soldier responded.

"Hey, run away, or the bastards will catch up again."

…………

"Hurry up, chase me!" The Kodor cavalry chased the team in front of the team. The Kodor led the knight who could not stop Antaas and others from entering the city last time ordered the soldiers behind him.

In order to redeem the sins, the knights led the troops did not think much after receiving the report from the messenger, so they chased the Wells Legion all the way and sent troops back to seek help in annihilation of this small force and regain their lost face.

"Dear brothers, everyone insisted. Keep up with the tails of this group of bastards, the Earl will definitely send troops to come. Then we will kill all these bastards!" The leading knight incited.

"Yes!" everyone replied. Although they were rushing on the rugged mountain path, the group of Kodor soldiers still gritted their teeth and persevered. Nothing else, just for the glittering gold coins, superior titles and large fertile land...

…………

"Master," Ron, who had just trotted from the city wall, reported to Yat, who stood on the city wall, watching the reinforcements sent by the northern army of Kodor, headed towards the mountain path to the east, "everything is ready."

Yat slowly turned his head.

"good!"

"But," Ron hesitated, "will the Kodors come to attack the city?"

Yat took down his hands, which were placed on the edge of the city wall, and said to Ron: "It will definitely come!"

Ron still didn't believe it, staring at Yat, looking forward to getting an answer from Yat's mouth.

"You don't believe me," Yat asked Ron with a doubt.

"No, Master, I just..."

"Okay, since you want to know so much, I'll tell you."

Ron's eyes lit up.

"The Kodorians sent soldiers to pursue Antayas and others to head towards the mountain path. In addition, the sergeant came to report that the Kodorian cavalry had come here, and the remaining large groups of people were also moving forward one after another, heading towards Fort Marci."

"Really?" Ron looked at Yat with surprise.

"This is fake." Yat said looking at Ron.

"Immediately send orders to all departments to prepare for battle!" Yat ordered Ron.

"Yes, lord!" After receiving the order, Ron ran down the city tower...

…………

At noon, the scorching sun was in the sky. The army of Kodor from the north came toward the Fort Marci. The leader was the Earl of Kodor.

Since receiving a secret letter from the northern battlefield, he knew that the previous siege strategy had failed and it was imperative to attack Fort Marsey. In the early morning, he received a report that more than 100 people fled in Fort Marsey, and Earl Kodor immediately sent people to pursue. In order to prevent the soldiers of the Wells Legion in the other castles from escaping again, Earl Kodor decided to attack the city.

The peasants and soldiers who followed the Kodor army transported the already prepared siege equipment to the north and south of the Fort Marci. The Kodor army planned to attack the city on both sides.

As an important castle on the Kodor Traffic Road, the Kodors knew the castle they built very clearly. Therefore, the trenchers they prepared were extremely huge, and the ladders for siege were much longer than ordinary ones. Fort Marci is a strong city, and the Kodors certainly knew how to take it most likely.

…………

Under the walls of Marciburg, the northern army of Kodor had already set up its formation. Standing on the wall, most of the soldiers were well-clad and armed and weapons, and they were waiting in line. More than 200 cavalry and cavalry stood behind the array, and their horses kept trampling on the soil, ready to charge and rush into the formation at all times.

In the middle of the array, a heraldic flag of Count Kodor stood and fluttered, and there were flags of other lords of various sizes around. These people were all Lords and nobles of the province of Codor, and were summoned by the earl to attack Fort Marci.

…………

"Listen," a knight in the middle of the day, a Kodor led his troops to the Wells Legion in the castle, "Before you is the Count of the Province of Bokodor, the guardian of the province of Kodor, and the military minister of the southwestern border of Bodor, Lord Mormon Ein Fayek, who ordered you to put down your weapons, open the gates and accept surrender, and swear allegiance to the court of Thorne. If you do not follow, when the gates break through, you will be slaughtered on the charge of treason."

"Hahaha……"

"Hahaha……"

At this time, Angus, who had already stood on the north gate of Fort Marce, Odo and other senior officers laughed constantly.

"You group of Kodor bastards will tell me. If you have the ability, attack the city gate. If you want us to surrender, it depends on whether you have the ability." Angus smiled and shouted to the Kordor's leading knights who were calling. Everyone smiled at this time.

Standing in the middle, Athletics, who was standing in the middle, shouted to the lower: "Listen to the people below, I am the guardian of Tignes on the southeastern border of Bo, Viscount of Bo, the Wells Legion and commander of the Southern Garage Legion, Yat Wood Wells! Let your people put down their weapons and surrender immediately, and swear allegiance to the new king Flander. Otherwise, when the city gates open, you will all die!" Yat said fiercely.

"You..." The Knight of Kodor who was shouting at the city was speechless for a moment, and looked back at the Count Mormon Earl of Kodor with a pale face.

"Call him back!" Mormon ordered the guards beside him angrily.

"Yes, Lord Earl."

"Send the order to prepare to attack the city!" After a moment, Mormon ordered the messenger behind him.

"Prepare to siege the city, prepare to siege..." The messengers ordered the siege to attack the various siege troops of Kodor along the queue.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Yat, standing on the wall of the north city of Fort Marce, ordered the officers around him.

"Yes, sir!" Everyone took the order and left.
