Paradox players' simulation game

"Well... the territory has been lost."

Venetian frowned.

She discovered that the color of the territory captured by the Holy See army did not turn into the red of Eret's side, but into a neutral yellow.

This means that the area controlled by the Holy See does not belong to Benicea, which is intriguing.

Are they really here to support the kingdom?

"This guy Eret, he will ruin all of Benicia's resources sooner or later!"

Wei thought fiercely in her heart.

Although she was angry, she was now in a state of difficulty protecting herself.

Because as the Holy See army advanced, her support rate was declining at a visible rate. After a few rounds, it dropped to 70%. Once it fell below 60%, the probability of her completing the battle for the throne would be slim.

【Ash orders the entire army to attack.】

"He hasn't given up yet."

Wei Nei patted her cheeks to cheer herself up.

The Sanctuary is indeed terrifying, but it is not time to despair yet, and the simulation so far is pretty good.

"When I become the queen, I will let Ash be the prince." Vene blinked. Even she knew that she would not be able to continue this game for much longer. Even if she really became the queen, with the attitude of the Holy See, they would most likely kill Ash.

But Ash is her divine general, she would never allow that.

This means that in the end, we will have to go against the Holy See no matter what.

Letting Ash be the prince is also a form of protection.

The game will be over soon anyway, so you might as well have some fun.

Even if the Holy See refused to let Ash go, then Vene decided to fight to the bitter end. At worst, she would start all over again. She didn't believe that she couldn't marry Ash... Bah! She didn't believe that she couldn't deal with the Holy See!

At this time, more than 50,000 troops of the Holy Cross crossed the Ikasi Line of Defense and rushed towards the royal city with great momentum.

Faced with the successive losses of territories behind him, Ash didn't care. At this point, there was only one way to break the deadlock, and that was to kill, kill, kill!

[On December 12, the Holy Crusaders were stopped by 5 Benician troops led by the Marquis of Camões.]

【Ash used fire to burn the Camoms army.】

[On December 12, Bernard once again led 7 elite Benicians to fight the Holy Crusaders in the Koda Mountains.]

The scene changed, and tens of thousands of troops were fighting together on the rolling mountains. There was no strategy this time, just a hard fight with every sword drawn, trying to break the formation as quickly as possible.

[On December 12, the Holy Crusaders defeated the Benicia army, Bernard was beheaded, and the remaining 9 soldiers fled.]

[On December 12, the Holy Crusaders were once again blocked by the Benicia army. After a fierce battle, they killed more than 10 enemy soldiers.]

【…】

【…】

[On December 12, the Holy Crusaders arrived three kilometers outside the royal city.]

Approaching step by step!

[Felice: Unbelievable, we really reached the capital of Benicia.]

[Irelia: The losses are not small, and the Crusaders hardly stopped during their journey. I don't know how the next decisive battle in the Royal City will be fought.]

After setting out from the city of Acasi, the Crusaders hardly stopped along the way. They lost nearly 10,000 people in successive waves of battles, and their soldiers were exhausted. It would be too easy to win if they continued to attack. They had to take a rest, as the Holy See army was chasing them closely.

Time is running out for the Holy Crusaders!

"Hmm... There should be at least 30,000 elite soldiers in the city, plus the Mage Corps, the remaining griffins, and 10,000 Royal City Guards. I wonder if the court mages will show up. If they do, our chances of winning will be too low."

Wei Nei counted on her fingers. She had lived in the royal city for so many years and knew very well how many troops there were there.

If the overall combat power is taken into account, there are only 40,000 troops left on the Holy Cross side, but they are too fatigued and their combat effectiveness has declined sharply.

The Royal City is much more solid than Icassi City, and it is difficult to break it by force. You have magic cannons, but others have them too, and more. You have shield warriors to defend, but others have them too. Just force an attack. The Mage Corps will stand on the city wall, and thousands of mages will attack collectively. In addition, the Griffin Corps will attack, and the advantage will be too great.

Of course, with the magic archer around, the wizard and the griffin did not dare to act too recklessly.

But no matter what, attacking the royal city is very difficult.

['Holy Crusaders, attack!']

On the interface, Ash's portrait occupies half of the screen, ordering the army to begin attacking the city.

At this point, he didn't have any better solution. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice. This was the situation and he could only fight.

If there was enough time, he could slowly besiege the royal city and use tactics to lure the garrison inside to come out and fight, but now, that's not possible!

[Ash uses his famous skill 'Invincible'. ]

【Ash uses the skill 'Strong Attack'. 】

At one command, the army marches forward!

With the help of the Eye of the God of War, Ash could perfectly see the defense situation of the royal city. He divided his troops into several groups and concentrated the core troops of the Holy Cross at the weakest point in the royal city's defense and wait on standby.

There are four gates in the city of Benicia, and the garrison troops cannot be evenly distributed. If we can attack based on this point, there is still hope of winning this battle.

[Irelia: Let’s begin! ]

On the front battlefield, nearly 20,000 troops began to attack, and troops were sent from the other three city gates.

These 20,000 troops attacked the second weakest point of the royal city. When the attack signal was sounded, Ash found that the troops in the city began to mobilize, and most of them headed towards the attacked point.

Arrows rained down from the city walls, and the magic array patterns condensed by the mages turned into dazzling magic skills that fell down. In less than two rounds, the Holy Crusaders lost nearly three thousand people.

"hateful."

Wei Nei watched all this with gritted teeth. The magician group appeared, and as expected, their firepower covered explosive damage. There is a reason why magicians have a high status in the Rhea continent.

Seeing large numbers of soldiers fall, her heart was bleeding.

These were all brought together by Ash step by step.

[Felice: It's not okay to keep fighting like this? Even if the city is captured, most of the people will be dead.]

The Crusaders' attack was fierce, and it could be said that they were attacking at full speed, giving people a sense of impatience and anxiety.

Yes, the Holy See is in trouble now, and no one can be at peace.

But in Phyllis's opinion, this suicidal attack method is not a good idea. She even thinks that instead of fighting like this, it would be better for Ash to lead his men to retreat and leave Benicia before trying to develop further.

Of course, if the battle for the throne fails, whether the game will be considered a failure is another matter. After Eret has firmly established himself on the throne, it will be difficult for him to attack again.

While thinking, the casualties of the Holy Cross on the front battlefield have almost reached 10,000.

20,000 troops attacked, suffered heavy casualties, how could they fight without even breaking the gate?

[Irelia: No, Iron Buddha and Magic Archer did not appear.]

Phyllis took a closer look and saw that it was true. It would be fine if the Iron Pagoda did not appear, after all, its role in siege warfare was limited, but the Magic Archer should have appeared.

The range and damage of the magic archers can greatly limit the performance of the Benicia mages.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw another 7,000 soldiers appear at the other side of the city gate that was attacking the king's city!

The troops assigned to the siege were 20,000, 5,000, 5,000, and 5,000, a total of 35,000. Some of the core members of the Holy Crusaders were on the front battlefield, but they were all infantry, shield soldiers, and ordinary archers. The additional 4,000 magic armored iron pagodas and 3,000 magic archers did not appear.

At this moment, the 7,000-strong army, together with the 5,000 ordinary soldiers, launched an attack on the weakest gate of Benicia!

[Irelia: So that's the main attack point. ]

[Phyllis: Huh? ? That's the attack point? The 20,000 troops on the front have been fighting for a long time, but it's just a feint? ]

[Irelia: I'm afraid so. If they hadn't mobilized 20,000 soldiers and horses, Benicia wouldn't have taken it so seriously. And Ash is on the battlefield here... I have to say that he really dared to gamble. He didn't focus on the offensive, but used this suicidal attack to deceive Benicia, making them mistakenly think that this was really the main point.]

As the saying goes, those who are involved are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things clearly. As soon as the Iron Buddha and the Magic Archer on Ash's side moved, Irelia could immediately see it.

But even if we know it, who would dare to do it?

That’s the lives of tens of thousands of people!

Just sent it out like that.

Being able to make this decision, Irelia felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

She didn't know what kind of mood Ash was in when he made the decision, but judging from the situation on the battlefield, if he didn't find a way to break the city, when the Holy See army arrived, the more than 40,000 Holy Cross soldiers would probably have to stay on the battlefield.

So, this is a choice that must be made.

At this time, news of the Holy Cross's main attack spread quickly.

But it takes time to transmit information on the battlefield. By the time Benicia realized that something was wrong, the main attack point was about to break open the city gate!

['Support! Support!' Eret, who was supervising the battle, exclaimed. ]

In the sky, the remaining two thousand griffin troops of Benicia took off from their base inside the royal palace.

By taking advantage of the griffin's speed to provide quick support, even in just one round of action, the defensive force of this city gate can be quickly replenished.

Boom~~

The city gate was bombarded by magic cannons and was on the verge of collapse!

['Kill! Kill! Kill!']

At the final stage of the attack, the morale of the Crusaders was extremely high.

Ash immediately gave up commanding the frontal attack point, headed towards the core team's attack gate, and added various buffs.

He used himself as bait to make Eret believe that he was going to attack this side. Casualties were inevitable, but as long as the city gate could be broken, it would be worth it even if the 20,000 troops attacking head-on were destroyed, let alone 10,000.

['Soldiers, break open the city gates, our glory is before our eyes! ']

Twelve thousand troops are all on the move!

The Demonic Armored Iron Pagoda rushed to the front. With the durability of the city gate at the moment, they only needed to charge and smash it once to easily break it open.

Just then, the Griffin Legion arrived late.

The magic archers immediately drew their bows and took aim.

But this time the griffin did not dive again, but stopped above the city gate. On the griffin's back stood figures in wizard robes, chanting, with magic wands raised high. A huge magic circle emerged out of thin air, forming a strong sense of oppression on the city gate.

"This is... the Court Mage Team?!"

Wei Nei was stunned.

There are thousands of magicians in the Benicia Mage Corps, and most of them are at level two or three, with only a few at level four or five.

However, the magic level of the court magicians all starts at level four, and even the chief magician of the court can reach the level of level seven grand mage. Although they are few in number, their lethality is extremely strong.

However, the team of court mages is directly controlled by the Council of Elders, which includes the most influential members of the royal family. The power that the newly appointed king Eret can mobilize is extremely limited.

Even so, the effect of the massive fourth and fifth level magic bombardment is terrifying.

['You lowly invader, taste the wrath of Benicia! '——Eret roared angrily. ]

The next moment, a large area of ​​magic circle was shining with light, gathering into a dazzling magic skill that fell down - a magic group attack washed the ground!

Fire, thunder, ice...endless magical elemental power poured down, covering the entire area outside the city gate like a rainstorm, and also almost covering all the charging Crusaders.

"It's over..." Wei Nei's face turned pale.

But Ash suddenly raised his sword high, and golden power burst out from his body - the will of the God of War, immunity!

The golden light covered the Holy Crusaders and lit up the moment the magic bombardment fell, with the timing being extremely precise.

Boom, boom, boom~~The loud roar shook the earth. The entire battlefield interface was obscured by the color of magic, and nothing could be seen inside.

One, two, three...time is going on.

Finally, figures rushed out from the smoke. Iron Pagoda was the first to disperse the smoke, and with the help of the Iron Wall skill, it slammed into the broken city gate.

boom!

The city gate was broken!

['Kill him!' Ash raised his sword and shouted. ]

The Iron Buddha army rushed into the city.

Infantry, shield soldiers, and archers rushed into the city.

The three-second immunity effect blocked the moment when the magic bombardment was most powerful. Although the remaining power was still terrifying, the loss was completely within the acceptable range.

Especially the Iron Pagoda, the heavy cavalry enchanted with magic resistance suffered almost no losses, and nearly five thousand soldiers led the charge, like a sharp knife stabbing into the royal city, and went straight to the palace under Ash's command!
