Chapter 850: Tyre City at the Gates

……

……

The magical world, the east coast of the Sea of ​​Aquarius, the city of Tyre, the city hall, the meeting room.

At this time, the conference room was filled with a heavy and dead atmosphere. The Archon of Tyre City, Long Zhantian, and the head of the Fifth Knights, as well as the leaders and commanders of the reinforcements from other cities, were all gathered in this conference room, but no one spoke. The whole conference room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

Just now, they received a battle report from the front. An entire fleet was almost annihilated in the decisive battle with the demon fleet. Only about twenty warships managed to escape back to the port, and the hulls were also covered with scars, which was shocking to see.

Originally, everyone thought that this first battle should be able to rely on the power of new weapons, and teach these ignorant demons a lesson, strike a blow to their arrogance, and dampen their spirit. It is precisely because of this that they sent out almost all of their warships, because they were determined to win the first battle. As for whether the overall strategic situation in the future can be won, it all depends on God's will.

As a result, who knew that the fleet sent by the demon clan was almost all out, rather than a small vanguard fleet. As a result, the first battle became a decisive battle, and almost all the main ships were lost, and even the joint commander of the fleet was killed.

When they heard the news, it was like a bolt from the blue. The governor of Tyr almost fainted on the spot. This huge fleet was built up after spending a lot of time working day and night. Who knew that it would be lost in just one battle? The remaining warships that escaped back, although they still had a certain combat effectiveness, it was unrealistic to go out to sea to fight. In fact, this was no longer a problem they needed to consider. What they needed to consider was that the demon fleet was about to arrive at the port of Tyr and bombard the city!

"Everyone..." The Archon of Tyre City moved his throat: "Do you have any ideas?"

"Mr. Archon... the scale of the demon attack this time is no small matter... moreover, the entire fleet was destroyed in one day... this is truly, too unbelievable." Long Zhantian said in a deep voice.

"yes……"

"Ugh……"

"..."

Long Zhantian's words resonated with the people around him, and everyone sighed.

"Everyone... if that's the case, is it still necessary to defend Tyr City? Since the enemy can destroy our entire fleet in one day, I'm afraid they can also destroy our entire city in one day... Is our resistance really useful? After all, we have heard the news before. All the towns facing the attack of the demon army could not hold out for more than a day. I believe that Lord Long is also very clear about this..."

The consul slumped in his chair, his face pale, and a hint of despair in his eyes.

"Mr. Archon, what are you talking about? You are afraid before the battle. Are you going to flee?" The leader of the Fifth Knights frowned and said in a deep voice: "The city of Tyre occupies a geographical advantage and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. How can it be compared with the fleet at sea? Besides, don't we have the Fifth Knights here, as well as many reinforcements? We have so many people, the demons may not be able to swallow us up so easily!"

"Yes, Your Excellency the Captain is right. The city of Tyr does have a geographical advantage, and we must not give it up easily. Think about it, our Longgu City is located in a natural valley, and it also has a geographical advantage. It's just that the number of defenders is too small, and they are outnumbered, so they were broken by the demons." Long Zhantian nodded aside, fully approving of the words of the Fifth Knight Commander.

Although the Fifth Knight Commander made some bold statements, the atmosphere in the conference room was still depressing. Everyone knew that although the Fifth Knight Commander's words were inspiring, the reality was cruel. There was no doubt that the fate of Tyre City was hanging by a thread at this moment. Everyone knew that the demon army would never stop because of a victory in a naval battle. Their goal was the eastern defense line of the entire magic world - and even the entire magic world. And Tyre City was just a piece of the puzzle.

"Captain, your words make sense, but... it still depends on the intensity of the attack we receive, right?" A reinforcement commander from another city couldn't help but speak, his voice full of deep worry: "Intelligence has shown that the elite demons not only have strong individual combat capabilities, but their leader, the Demon Lord, is suspected to have launched the attack with the fleet... He has a terrifying power at the level of forbidden spells. Facing such an enemy, no matter how strong the defense facilities of Tyr City are, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist. Moreover, in the two anti-demon wars from ancient times to the present, except for the legendary brave who has the power to resist the Demon Lord, I have never heard of anyone else who can resist the will of the Demon Lord."

After the words fell, there was another silence in the conference room. Everyone knew that the commander's words were not alarmist. The attack of the demons was different from previous enemies. Their strength had exceeded the scope of conventional warfare. If there was no decisive strategic-level powerful force, those ordinary soldiers and mages would probably be useless no matter how many they gathered.

"That's right, Your Excellency the Captain, we all admire your courage and determination, and Tyr City does have a geographical advantage, but if we face a being like Redra, geographical advantages alone cannot ensure safety." Another leader of the reinforcements also nodded slowly in agreement.

The face of Tyr City's Archon turned paler and paler, and he was even a little confused. The man who served as the fleet commander was a good friend of his, and the Archon was very clear about his strength. Such a magician actually died as soon as he said he would, which showed how powerful the Demon Lord was.

Long Zhantian looked at everyone and said in a low voice: "Everyone, I understand your concerns. But Tyr City is the key to the east coast defense line. If this place is lost, the Ganna Plain behind will be directly exposed to the iron hoof of the demons. And even if we choose to retreat, where can we retreat to? Every inch of land in the magic world is crucial. Losing Tyr City is equivalent to losing the barrier of the entire east coast."

The atmosphere in the conference room became increasingly heavy, and everyone understood that this was a life-and-death decision. Holding on could mean the annihilation of the entire army; retreating would mean abandoning the eastern defense line, with disastrous consequences.

"Don't we have any other options?" There was a hint of despair in the Archon's voice. "Can we just sit there and wait for death?"

After listening to everyone's opinions, the Fifth Knight Commander was no longer arrogant. He pondered for a moment and said slowly, "There is a way, but I'm afraid it will involve great sacrifices. We can try to fight a protracted war and at the same time send envoys to the Ministry of Magic for more support. If we can gather more troops, especially mobilize the other knights, there may be a glimmer of hope."

"In other words, we will launch the decisive battle in advance. If we can successfully repel the demons and defeat their will, the biggest benefit will be that we can buy more time. But at the same time, if we fail in this battle... I'm afraid we won't have much resistance left."

"Captain, your proposal is really bold." Long Zhantian narrowed his eyes and said.

"There is no other way. The Ganna Plain is indefensible. Once the east coast defense line collapses and the demon army invades the east coast continent, we will have already lost the war and there will be no possibility of turning the tables. Facts have also proved that if we just defend the inland cities, we will not be able to withstand the demon attacks." said the commander of the fifth knight.

"It seems that this is indeed a gamble..." Long Zhantian nodded heavily and sighed: "However, this is indeed a feasible solution. However, the premise is that we can hold on until the moment when the reinforcements arrive."

"Yes. But this is better than defending without any idea." The Knight Commander said, "The Dragon City Lord and I have reached a consensus. I wonder what the rest of you think? If you all agree to this plan, I will immediately write a letter to the department to request the deployment of troops."

The conference room fell silent again, as everyone weighed the pros and cons and considered the feasibility of this plan.

"I agree with this plan." After thinking for a while, someone finally spoke up: "We have no other choice. Tyre City cannot be easily abandoned. We must hold on and buy time. Since holding on is doomed to failure, perhaps we can indeed request the rear to transfer a large force to the front line and start the decisive battle in advance."

"I agree." Another reinforcement commander also nodded. "We can also send envoys, not only to the Ministry of Magic, but also to other cities to request more support. If we can gather more troops in a short period of time, the chances of winning will definitely be greater. After all, no matter how strong the Demon Lord is, he can't fight an entire army alone!"

The Archon looked at everyone and finally made up his mind: "Okay, since everyone agrees, let's make it this way. Lord Long, please help arrange the city defense and strengthen the fortifications. Your Excellency the Captain, please lead your knights to each section of the city wall to assist in the defense."

"Okay, then I will write a letter right away and report it to the Ministry right away."

After the discussion, everyone started to act separately. Although the atmosphere in the meeting room was still heavy, there was a glimmer of hope. Facing the situation of the enemy at the gate, the city of Tyre also began its final resistance and struggle...
