"But, I promise, I, Karen Telsk, am not a coward, and I will never be the first to leave Winterburg!"

"If the city is breached, I will die with everyone else!"

"Please lend your strength to me and the Telst family again!"

The soldiers under the city wall looked at each other. Then, one soldier raised his right hand.

That was Eddie who was planning to escape.

"For Lady Kallen! Fight to the death!"

"For Lady Kallen!"

"For Tersk!"

"Fuck it! The Night Demon won't let us live anyway! Kill!"

"Damn it, let's fight. We can't escape anyway. Kill!"

The war cries resounded among the crowd like a game of pass the parcel, and at this moment, the morale of these soldiers reached its peak.

They were not abandoned.

The king they support is willing to die with them, that is enough!

A smile appeared on Leo's lips. He grasped his sword and pulled it out suddenly, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the northern wall: "The sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers will last forever, and the glory of the North will last forever. Gentlemen, follow me to defend the city!"

"The title and fiefdom are decided in this battle!"

Chapter 57: Burning the Boats (Part 2) Part 3

Seeing these soldiers, who seemed to be full of energy, following Miss Kallen (no, it should be Princess Kallen) to the north wall, Leo couldn't help but raise his lips.

Burning the boats and fighting to the death... As a Chinese citizen who grew up in the original world, Leo is very familiar with these tactics.

Of course, in this world, these tactics have not yet appeared.

Therefore, when Marquis Logan proposed such a strategy of having Winterhold hold back the enemy while he led his troops to raid the rear, Viscount Carter regarded it as a masterpiece and believed that he would definitely be able to defeat the enemy.

To be honest, Marquis Logan's strategy is correct.

But the way he handled it was terrible.

Even Leo, a rookie who is only good at talking about military strategy on paper, would never choose to leave a group of useless soldiers to guard the home and take all the generals with him as a surprise force.

There is not even a person of status in the entire Winterhold, and there are a lot of Order cultists clamoring to escape. How could these soldiers fight for their lives?

This style of play is just like leaving a support to guard the home while the other four go to steal the home.

The opponent only needs to send two people to push you head-on...

In this case, if he wants to win, he must transform this group of useless soldiers into iron-blooded warriors in the shortest possible time.

The simplest way is -

"You proposed this tactic to survive in the face of death." Lennon walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder: "Praise the order. I was not wrong. You are really good, Leo."

When Leo suggested blowing up the bridge directly to cut off the soldiers' possibility of escape, Lennon reacted instantly and realized that this was the glimmer of hope he was looking for.

Since these miscellaneous soldiers don't want to contribute and just want to escape, the easiest way is to create a situation where they have to fight to the death.

However, as the leader of Order in Winterhold, he must be responsible for the interests of the church and ensure that he can bring his believers back.

Therefore, the plan was finally adjusted to combine the power of all the Order believers to release an illusion, creating the illusion that the Winterhold Stone Bridge was blown up.

Because of the illusion, in the eyes of these soldiers, the bridge of Winter Castle was destroyed, and it was surrounded by water and cliffs. They had no way of escaping and it was a real death situation.

In this case, if you stick your head out, you will be cut off. If you hide your head, you will also be cut off. It is better to fight the Night Demon to death. If you can hold on, you can also gain wealth and fiefdom.

This is the only way to win the Defense of Winterhold.

"To be honest, I didn't expect such a good effect." Leo shook his head: "I think this has a lot to do with the existence of Miss Karen."

"Yes, indeed." Lennon nodded in agreement: "She is a respectable lady. It's a pity that she doesn't believe in order. After all, she is not the same as us."

The second mistake Marquis Logan made was that he did not leave someone of importance in Winterhold to serve as the backbone of the soldiers.

Viscount Carter had no support from the soldiers at all.

Leo would not make such a mistake.

Therefore, he originally planned to let the Saint of Order, Frey, stand up and show that she was willing to live and die with the soldiers.

Unexpectedly, the saint who had ordered the slaughter of living sacrifices was not willing to show up at all.

Instead, it was Miss Karen who stood up.

This shocked Leo.

He guessed that Kallen was a noble from the North, but he never guessed that she was the daughter of the King of the North.

Only Viscount Carter knew her identity. If she wanted to leave here, there were too many ways.

But she didn't leave.

This princess, who was less than 20 years old, did not escape or retreat in such a dangerous moment, but chose to stand with her people.

Even if she might have to pay with her life for it.

For the first time since coming to this world, Leo felt the quality called "nobility" from a person.

This quality is even more valuable when compared with the bad woman, the Saint of Order.

"Of course..." Lennon patted Leo's shoulder again: "You don't have to blame everything on her, Leo. If you hadn't come up with this strategy, this Winter Castle would have been impossible to defend. You did a great job."

"Thank you, this is all thanks to the protection of my Lord." Leo gave an answer that matched his status.

The believers who followed Lennon all looked at Leo with envy.

They couldn't control their expressions.

Being valued so highly by Archbishop and Knight Commander Lennon, this newly appointed White Knight, as long as he does not die, can basically reserve a seat as a bishop of the Order Sect.

It is even possible to reach a higher position.

The goal that these believers had struggled for all their lives became something that Leo could easily achieve.

This makes these twisted guys extremely jealous.

"Okay, it's time for us to go to the city wall." Lennon waved behind him: "Look who I brought to you."

Leo looked past him and behind him, only to see Miss Scotti walking towards him coldly.

"Leo, I can sense that you are very weak. You still have a long way to go before you can become a true knight."

Lennon said solemnly: "Before you grow up, you need protection, but you also need experience."

"So, you should continue to stay with Luna and learn from her how to be a white knight."

"You two were partners before, so I'm sure you will work well together."

"Yes..." Leo was looking forward to this arrangement and saluted immediately.

Miss Shikoti, on the other hand, just snorted gloomily: "I understand, Knight Commander."

Lennon thought that she had not yet adapted to his servant, who had suddenly become his colleague. Without thinking too much, he nodded and walked towards the north wall: "Well, hurry up, the war is about to begin."

"Um... Miss Shikoti." Seeing Lennon walking away, Leo looked around and stuck to Miss Slime: "Are you... still angry?"

"I'm not angry, Lord Leo, how could I be angry?" Shikoti raised his chin: "You have become a white knight, and you have also been appreciated by Lord Lennon and favored by Miss Karen. As your servant, I am so happy that I can't wait to be angry..."

"Uh..." Leo felt a headache when he heard this.

This sour smell, is this a jealous person?

"Lord Leo, do you have anything else to tell me? If not, let's hurry to the battlefield."

"I……"

"After all, your Lady Kallen is already on the city wall. If you don't go, she will be in danger."

"no……"

"Or does Lord Leo not want Shikoti to be with you? It will affect your and her world of two?"

"Okay!" Leo couldn't help it anymore, he raised his voice and grabbed Shikoti's little hand.

Miss Slime was startled and wanted to struggle, but she held back: "Master Leo, isn't what Shikoti said wrong?"

"No, of course not!" Leo let out a long sigh and organized his words: "To me... well, actually... ah, to me, you are the most important one."

"I'm sorry, I have little emotional experience and I'm not very good at talking, so... so I can't say anything to please you."

"But, but Shikoti, please believe me. In my heart, you are the only person I can trust, the most...most...important person. Really, I didn't lie to you."

"Without you, I wouldn't be here today..."

Hearing this, the frost on Shikoti's face finally melted, revealing a sly smile: "Master, are you confessing to me?"

Chapter 58 Confession 4~

Hearing this, the frost on Shikoti's face finally melted, revealing a sly smile: "Master, are you confessing to me?"

Leo: "..."

"Huh..." He took a deep breath and shook his head awkwardly: "Well...well, I guess so..."

"Then Shikoti feels that this confession is totally insufficient."

"Uh...then..."

"But it doesn't matter. Master, you can prepare more and tell Shikoti when you are ready. Shikoti will always stay by your side and will never leave."

"Shikoti..."

Leo turned his head and looked at the girl's sacred and pure face, not knowing what to say.

I just feel my heart warm.

"Are you not angry anymore?"

"Hmph, I guess so... But if the master is still the same as before and doesn't even want to coax me, then Shikoti will still be very angry!" Miss Slime raised her fist, showing a cuteness that was not in line with her status.

"Well... I understand. I will improve."

"By the way, Master, can I eat Kallen?"

"..." Leo's mouth twitched: "Let's not do it."

On the one hand, although his hands were stained with the blood of countless people after he came to this world, he still couldn't bring himself to kill a noble innocent person.

And at least for now, Kallen is such a noble lady.

On the other hand, from the first time Leo used the Eye of True Vision to spy on Kallen, he found something wrong...

"Hmm? Master, you still have improper thoughts about that woman!" Shikoti's eyes narrowed, murderous intent surged, and he jumped directly onto Leo's back.

"No, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong, let's go, let's go to the battlefield!"

"Damn it, what a sin!"

"Hmph, by the way Master, I have a surprise for you after today."

"Surprise, what surprise?"

"You will know then..."

"rumble……"

"rumble……"

The sound of the earth shaking stimulated the hearts of every soldier.

Those were the footsteps of the Night Demon army rushing towards them.

Compared with the last siege, this time their steps were more urgent and their movements were faster.

The silver moon was high in the sky, and besides the moonlight, the only lighting in Winterburg at night was torches.

But for the night demons, this is the best battlefield.

"boom!"

A flash of thunder flashed across the sky, tearing the firmament apart. Dark clouds gradually covered the face of the moon. The already gloomy earth fell into silent darkness.
