Chapter 325 Iron Tower City—Planning Before the War

Iron Tower City was built two hundred years ago. After successive expansions by the Iron Tower Viscounts, the entire mountain was hollowed out and watered with molten iron to form this permanent military fortress.

In the underground palace, a dwarf was stroking his white beard, holding a wine glass, and taking a swig of wheat wine.

"Father, all the people in the territory are armed. There are more than 20,000 people. In addition to the 3,000 troops in our hands, as well as the 500 horned sheep knights and 1,000 hammer warriors in the hands of General Cota, we should be able to defend the Iron Tower City. "A young dwarf stood beside Viscount Iron Tower and reported anxiously.

"What do you mean should?" Viscount Iron Tower angrily threw the wine glass on his youngest son's face and yelled loudly.

Aidan Tieta touched the drink on his face and stood there without saying a word, letting his father vent his emotions.

Two of his brothers, three sisters and six nephews died in the war two months ago. He lost his best heir and almost all his grandchildren, which made his father become more and more irritable and paranoid. .

Half an hour later, Viscount Iron Tower was tired of scolding, so he asked the servant to bring another glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp, with a look of pain on his face.

"Aidan, you and General Kota are leaving Iron Tower City tonight."

The young dwarf raised his head and looked at his father in disbelief.

"Passing on the name Iron Tower is my last request to you. I don't ask you to carry forward the family, I just ask you to pass it on."

"Father, actually you..."

"Shut up." Viscount Iron Tower stared at his youngest son and said in a deep voice, "Soldiers, don't retreat. I have the honor that I hold on to."

"Now come out and bring General Kota over."

Aidan opened his mouth, but in the end no words came out.

His father is such a paranoid person. Even in front of His Majesty the King, he probably will not change his persistence.

Not long after, a silver high-level dwarf came to the underground palace.

"Lord Eric."

Viscount Iron Tower opened his eyes, looked at the young dwarf in front of him, touched the drink on his beard, and sat upright.

"General Kota, I want to ask you something."

"Please tell me."

Cota respects this Viscount who adheres to the way of a warrior. Otherwise, after being separated from the troops, he would gather up the defeated troops and come to Iron Tower City to assist the opponent's defense.

"Iron Tower City is located on the border. I know I can't defend it."

"Lord Eric, you don't have to..."

"General Kota, please let me finish."

Facing the other party's request, Cota said nothing and sat quietly aside, listening to Viscount Iron Tower's story.

"The human army has pushed the front to the Dukedom of Hador. Although I believe that under the leadership of His Majesty the Kingdom, we can push back the army of the Kingdom of Ilia, but it is only a matter of time before the Iron Tower City falls."

"As a general, you should not be here to meet the inevitable end. You should play a greater role on the battlefield. Therefore, I beg you to take my son Aidan and leave Iron Tower City before the human suppression troops have arrived. Before arriving, leave Sigas Province.”

"If possible, I hope you will take care of my son in the future."

After saying that, Viscount Iron Tower asked his servant to bring up the three iron boxes and handed them to Cota himself.

Kota did not open it, thinking with his beard, he knew that there were valuable resources inside that could improve his own strength.

"The God of the Dwarf Mountains is above. As long as I, Kota, live for one day, I will take care of Aidan for one day."

"Thank you very much."

After saying these words, Viscount Iron Tower instantly became much older.

The old man in front of him already had a death wish and was unwilling to live in this world.

All the outstanding descendants died on the battlefield, leaving only a young son who was smart but cowardly. I don't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

That night, Kota led his 1,500 troops, plus 500 dwarf warriors led by Aidan, the son of Viscount Iron Tower, for a total of 2,000 troops. He left Iron Tower City through the underground passage at night and headed west. Prepare to take a detour from Gray Mango Wasteland to Xiqiu Province.

……

In the afternoon of the next day, Weilin received information about the news from Tower City.

There are dwarves who are brave and fearless of death, but there are also dwarves who are greedy for life and afraid of death.

Through the confessions of three different dwarf soldiers, a brief piece of information was placed on the table for others to read.

There were originally more than 50,000 dwarves in the Iron Tower Territory. After two rounds of conscription in the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom, there were still more than 30,000 dwarves left.

When the 26th Corps advanced, some of them were killed casually. There should be more than 20,000 dwarves hiding in the Iron Tower Mountain.

Judging from the confessions of the dwarf soldiers, most of the descendants of the Viscount of the Iron Tower died in the war three months ago. He hated humans extremely in his heart. The remaining dwarves, regardless of men, women, old and young, distributed weapons and prepared to rely on the Iron Tower City to carry them to death. in the end.

"Let's talk about how to fight." Weilin put down the information in his hands and asked the others.

"Iron Tower City is a hollowed-out mountain. The surrounding area is watered with molten iron. There are dwarven runes engraved on important places. The internal tunnels extend in all directions. It is easy for our army to attack. It is rare to completely annihilate them. The passages extending in all directions and the dark environment are difficult for us. Our fighters are very unfriendly."

"I suggest breaking the city first, and then surrounding the Iron Tower City with four battalions of troops, while the other troops continue to sweep around." Mengcas waited for a while, and when no one spoke, he expressed his thoughts and left a message. There is some room for others to supplement.

"This method is feasible, but I think this city must have a passage to the outside world. Before the siege, the underground passage between the Tower City and the outside world must be destroyed to prevent them from coming out to cause trouble." Viscount Algernon suggested.

"Legion Commander, I have something to add." Alcott looked at Verin and said, "In dwarf mountain cities, there are usually special caves where edible mushrooms are grown. When they are besieged, they can serve as Food. However, all of this requires water, and cutting off the other side's water sources can add a layer of insurance to the siege plan."

"It works," Verin wrote Cousin Alcott's idea.

After combining the opinions of several people, a fresh action against Tower City was released.

"First, capture the outside of Iron Tower City, drive these dwarves into the tunnel, then cut off the water and destroy the tunnel leading to the outside world. After that, four battalions will be left to besiege, and other troops will sweep other places."

"As for the main force of the siege, the troops of Viscount Moncas and Viscount Alcott will be in charge. The magic artillery unit will provide support. At the same time, please ask Mr. Greif to assist in the siege."

"I know everyone wants to get rich, and I do too, but it's impossible for everyone to get rich unless the dwarves' resistance is eliminated."

"So, this war is for our own interests, I hope you understand."

"Yes, legion commander." Everyone replied in unison.
