Beta nodded slightly to the others, and then asked: "How is the situation now?"
"I can still hold on." Although she said it was okay, Alice's face was not very good-looking: "We have a total of more than 8,000 troops, but about 2,000 soldiers have lost their combat capabilities."
This is why Beta saw many seriously wounded at the gate of the barracks.
"Can I go up to the city wall and have a look?" Beta asked. Alice is the commander in chief here. If he went up to the city wall rashly, whether he would be stopped or not, it would be disrespectful to Alice.
"I'll take you up and explain it to you by the way."
In this way, Alice came to the city wall with Beta.
Almost all the troops in the northern pass came from Tonggu City, and after two years of development in Tonggu City, most of the people were already believers in the God of Wealth. When Beta first entered the barracks, because most of the soldiers he met were wounded soldiers, no one recognized him.
But this city wall is full of alert and highly vigilant men, so when Beta arrived on the city wall, many believers recognized him.
A large group of soldiers bowed and saluted him, and Beta waved as he walked along. If it weren't for being on the battlefield now, Beta believed that many people would kneel down.
As the Pope, Beta's status in the Wealth God Cult is second only to Woking, and because of the miracles some time ago, Beta's reputation in the sect has a mysterious aura bonus, even shallow believers have a feeling for Beta Enough awe, not to mention those true believers and fanatics.
Alice didn't find it strange, and had no other thoughts.
Alice is very aware of the attractiveness of religion. She was canonized as a knight by Beta, became a professional, and took risks with Kyle and Beta. She experienced many things and was influenced by them invisibly. In fact, in essence, Alice Silk is also a shallow follower of the God of Wealth.
Therefore, Alice does not dislike her army and has the same beliefs as herself.
In addition, Alice could feel that after Beta went up to the city wall, the morale of the army had improved significantly.
Even the pope has come to the front line in person, which is an inspiring act in itself for the grassroots soldiers who are working hard underneath.
Beta walked behind the wall stack and looked at a stretch of white tents stationed about a thousand meters below the city wall. Judging from the number of soldiers in front of the enemy tents and the number of tents, the total number of enemies should exceed 20,000 .
Moreover, the enemy's camp was protected by a layer of light red enchantment. Even at a distance of a thousand meters, Beta could feel the headache-inducing magical fluctuations emanating from the enchantment.
"Such an exaggerated enchantment... It feels like Zoroastrianism has almost sent all the elite priests here." Beta sighed: "It seems that they are bound to win the Bronze Drum City. What is the reason?"
Alice shook her head, expressing that she was not sure.
Beta has the 'cloud dragon blue pupil', and he can see very far. He stared for a while, and suddenly asked: "I didn't see a drow, what's going on?"
Alice was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The drow elves participated in the siege battle the day before yesterday, but they were defeated by us. Maybe they retreated to the camp to rest. After all, the drow elves don't like to act in the sun. "
"They're not vampires. Just because they don't like them doesn't mean they can't!"
Beta's tone became a little more serious, and he looked at the towering mountains on the left and right of the city wall. This kind of steep mountain range is an insurmountable gap for ordinary people and for the army, but it is not the same for the drow elves.
"Alice, you immediately set up two small troops, a part of about a thousand people, preferably cavalry, to patrol the foot of the mountain near this pass day and night in batches. I suspect that the drow elves are about to cross the mountain and come in."
Alice nodded when she heard this.
"Another troop of 500 people retreated back to Tonggu City and guarded the four gates, and asked them to put up 12 points of vigilance."
Alice continued to nod.
Beta thought for a while, and continued: "It's still not safe enough. I'll ask Katie to take her team back to help you guard the city gate. Most drow elves are assassins and are good at night operations. Most people are not theirs at night." Opponent. Katie is also an assassin, with her help, things will be much easier."
Alice breathed a sigh of relief: "Beta, fortunately, you are here. If you don't say these things, I don't know how to deal with them. I just know how to bear them head-on."
Alice is a qualified general, leading troops to fight, she is actually not bad, she dares to fight. But in terms of tactics and strategy, she is not good enough. After all, she is a half-elf. The army, holding the northern pass for several days, has done a good job.
"I'll talk about these things later. You go and arrange things for the past two years. I'll go back to Woking City and bring some people over to help."
Alice immediately got off the city wall, and Beta teleported directly back to Woking City.
Then he directly found Judy who was resting in the room.
Butterfly is cleaning her pair of wings. Although in theory, she is already a master, her body will not get dirty casually, but for female reasons, she still likes to clean her body.
After all, she felt that Beta must also like clean and fragrant girls.
Seeing Beta, Judy was naturally very happy. Beta explained the situation facing Bronze Drum City, and then said: "Therefore, I want to hire your mercenary group."
Judy is naturally very willing, but she still said with some worry: "I have to discuss this matter with the team members, but don't worry, Beta, I will try my best to convince them."
Hearing that it was possible to help Beta so soon, Judy was naturally very excited, feeling that she was useful.
Beta said: "I'll go with you. If you ask for help, you have to look like you're asking for help. At least it looks sincere."
More than ten minutes later, when Beta and Judy appeared at the mercenary station together, everyone in the Silver Wing Mercenary Group had strange expressions on their faces.
Beta explained his intentions in the future, and then said: "I will pay the commission according to the rules of the mercenary world. Because of the war, the number of mercenaries this time is ten times that of the past. I am willing to pay 300 gold coins to hire you .”
All the mercenaries were dazed when they heard this amount of gold coins. To them, this was an unimaginably huge sum of money. Three hundred gold coins were allocated to each individual, and each of them had two Ten gold coins.
Even the calmest old mercenary looked dazed, but he soon came to his senses and asked, "Your Majesty, is this dangerous matter?"
