Chapter 1408, Passing the Five Passes (seven)
"Why?
Why?
Is it because God is going to destroy my Tajik tribe?
I'm not willing to give up, I'm not willing to give up."
Looking at the Tajik soldiers who were falling down outside the city, Firno knelt on his knees, looked at the sky, and kept questioning the sky.
"Sir, please order the withdrawal immediately, otherwise it will be difficult for the Faizabad Fortress to be defended, not only will it not be possible to rescue Dushanbe, but it will be difficult for the Faizabad Fortress to be defended."
Seeing Firno as crazy as he was, Lukaku, who was beside him, immediately stepped forward to persuade him.
“What’s the point of withdrawing?
In the end, aren’t you going to be trapped to death by the enemy?
Since you will die sooner or later, what can you do if you die sooner or later?"
Looking at the Shura hell-like scene outside the city, Firno's face showed a cunning smile.
"Sir, if you let the soldiers die without hesitation, it will likely intensify the conflict between us and the Aboriginal soldiers, and may even incite mutiny."
Seeing that Firno seemed to be really crazy, Kukaku was immediately scared and sweated.
"It doesn't matter. If anyone likes to rebel, let him rebel. Anyway, I would rather die standing up than hide in the fortress and live a life of silence."
After saying that, Firno suddenly stood up from the ground, then rushed down the city wall with his long sword.
After seeing that Firno didn't want to live, Lukaku sighed, and then raised his weapon and followed.
They were destined to be unable to escape today's disaster. Instead of being given the infamy of retreating in the face of the situation, it would be better to just be a little bit a little and follow Firno to sacrifice his country.
Players from any country are very tolerant of the warriors who voluntarily die, because they have done everything they can and even sacrificed their precious lives.
Although players will not really die in the game, this spirit is still worthy of recognition.
Judging from the current situation, Dushanbe will definitely not be able to save it, and it is difficult for the Fortress of Faizabad to withstand the condescending shooting of the Somersault Cloud Legion.
So although Firno looks crazy, he is actually in his heart.
All four fortresses in front were unknowingly lost. Knowing that the army of the Condor Empire had reached the Fortress of Obigalm, Firno, who was stationed in Fortress of Fayzabad, was warned.
And there was no warning from specific information. They just knew that an enemy was invading from the east, and did not know the specific enemy's troops configuration.
Without understanding the enemy situation, it is understandable that Faizabad Fortress cannot be defended, after all, the previous fortresses cannot be defended!
If you cannot defend the Fortress of Faizabad, Firno will only be punished similarly to the four fortress guards in front. After all, facing the Somerset Cloud Legion that had just been tricked into by the Condor Empire, they all have no power to fight back.
But if they saw the enemy crossing the Gizar Basin from both sides of the Fortress of Faizabad without any reaction, then the fall of Dushanbe is likely to be counted on them, because they had transferred the hundred thousand troops stationed in the Gizar Basin.
So Firno was not really crazy. He just wanted to use this to establish a loyal and heroic image, and at the same time, he led by himself to boost the morale of the defenders in the fortress.
Even if their hope of breaking through the enemy's blockade is very slim, as long as there is a slight hope, he will try his best to fight for it.
Because it doesn’t matter whether we can defend the Fortress of Faizabad now. What is really important is Dushanbe, the capital of the Gisar Basin.
Today is the 29th. As long as they can hold on for another day and wait until the ten game days are all over today, they can tell others gloriously: they have resisted the massive invasion of the Condor Empire, and now they have run out of ammunition and food, so it’s up to you to the next level.
......
Firno's wishful thinking was indeed good. With his personal lead in charge, the defenders, whose morale was already very sluggish, once again ignited high fighting spirit.
But this world is about strength after all, and a momentary boost in morale may not necessarily change anything, especially in such extreme situations where you can only be beaten but cannot fight back.
Soon, as Firno was nailed to the ground by several broken shield arrows, the morale that the fortress defenders had just raised soon dropped. Then, after some of them turned around and began to escape back to the fortress, others also fled back.
"Master General, among the enemies who just died in battle, there are a large number of enemy officers. Now the enemies in the fortress are in a state of no leader. Join us and send some soldiers from the Tajik Legion to surrender. Maybe we can achieve unexpected gains."
After seeing that most of the players led by Firno died in battle outside the city, a Tenglong Army player who was accompanying the army immediately whispered in James's ear.
James could not tell how many Tajikistan players there were in the fortress, but Zhou Zhengnan, who was a player, saw at a glance that there were only a few Tajikistan players inside the fortress.
Moreover, through the outfits of those surviving Tajikistan players, Zhou Zhengnan directly concluded that the players' identities were not very high, because the leather armor on them was much inferior to those of the most aggressive Tajikistan players.
At the same time, it can be seen from the attitude of the Aboriginal soldiers around them that their official positions are very low, because many Aboriginal soldiers obviously dissatisfied with them.
From this, Zhou Zhengnan inferred that the leadership of the Tajikistan player in the Faizabad Fortress is likely to have died in the charges just now, and now the indigenous soldiers in the fortress are in the unleased stage.
So he immediately reminded James to send the soldiers of the Tajik Legion to surrender. After all, a few days ago, they were all their own people.
Turning his head and looking at Zhou Zhengnan, who was sent by Ning Yuan to assist him, James just hesitated for a moment, and then directly sent someone to call Phillips, the commander of the Tajik Legion.
"Phillips, you will immediately take a team of soldiers from the Tajik Legion to the fortress in somersault clouds to recruit surrenders.
If you can surrender the remaining defenders in the fortress, then I will not only remember you for a great contribution, but also incorporate them into your Tajik Legion and let you command them.
How about it? Are you confident to instigate them back?”
After Phillips came, James immediately expressed his thoughts.
"You will report to the Grand Marshal, your subordinates will definitely persuade them to abandon the darkness and turn to the light. Please wait for good news from your subordinates."
After saluting James, Phillips immediately flew towards Fort Faizabad with dozens of Tajik soldiers in somersault clouds.
Now, several senior commanders of the fortress have all been killed.
Although there are still dozens of Maildan's direct descendants in the fortress, these people's positions are not much higher than theirs, so when Phillips turned around and left, many people's thoughts suddenly became active.
"What do you want to do?"
"Have you forgotten the methods of His Majesty King Maildan?"
"I tell you that His Majesty King Maildan will soon lead the troops of other heavenly kingdoms to come back, and not only will the betrayer who will die, but the betrayer's relatives will also be implicated.
So you better consider it clearly that the anger of His Majesty King Maildan is not something you can afford.”
......
After seeing malicious eyes coming from around, the Tajikistan players who survived in the fortress were immediately anxious. They kept transmitting Maildan's powerful means to the soldiers around them, hoping to shock the defenders who wanted to rebel.
Unfortunately, facing the Condor Empire army outside the fortress that could mount white clouds, Maildan's name was obviously not good at this time.
After all, Maildan is just a bit cruel and has no other amazing ability.
But the heavenly soldiers from the Condor Heroes outside were actually stepping on the clouds.
There are still tens of thousands of bloody corpses piled up outside the fortress, and those corpses are the enemy of these Condor Empire soldiers on the clouds.
Everyone cherishes their lives. If they can live well, no one is willing to die in vain.
So between the possibility of being retaliated by Maildan and now becoming a corpse, the defenders in the fortress quickly made their choice with practical actions.
As the Maildan direct descendants who were still clamoring just now fell into a pool of blood, soon a large number of unarmed soldiers walked out of the fortress one after another.
......
"Good example, Phillips, I will help you remember this credit for the time being. When the war is over, I will definitely help you ask for the merits in person.
Now, all these surrendered soldiers belong to your Tajik Legion. You stay here to reorganize them and make arrangements for the aftermath.
Nian, you take over the Fortress of Faizabad.
Pedro, you take people to Dushanbe immediately, and we will have a celebration dinner there tonight."
After saying that, James led the Somersault Cloud Legion toward Dushanbe.
Although Dushanbe is the largest city in Tajikistan, it has been under heavy protection and its main function is to develop economic and trade, and it has been continuously expanding, so the city wall is not very high.
When James led the Somersault Cloud Legion to this political and economic center of Tajikistan, the 20,000 to 30,000 defenders in the city were simply vulnerable.
The Somersault Cloud Legion only fired a few waves of arrow rains, and no longer could a living Tajikistan soldier be seen on the entire city wall.
After Pedro led two orc legions arrived, everything was completely unsuspected.
In less than two hours, the army of the Condor Empire captured the entire city and directly asked Dushanbe to change his surname to Condor.
