The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

In Pariston, the signalman hurriedly reported:

"Your Majesty, we have launched an artillery attack on the first line of defense according to the established plan, and have already caused heavy casualties to the enemy!"

Hearing this, Qin Ze, who was sitting upright in the chair, raised his head and said expressionlessly: "Did they retreat?"

"Your Majesty, the enemy not only did not retreat, but charged forward even more fiercely."

Qin Ze held his chin and couldn't help but chuckled: "Reckless man."

The signalman nodded and said, "Yes, but it seems that the enemy has a strong force at the moment. There are at least 100,000 enemy soldiers in the east alone. It can be said that they are coming with great force."

Qin Ze nodded slightly and said, "It's useless to have more. This is no longer the era of close combat with cold weapons."

At this point, he changed the subject and said, "The northern defense line has been quiet for some time."

As soon as the words fell, another communications soldier beside him immediately said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the enemy troops there have not completely withdrawn, but have retreated a few kilometers. They must be waiting for an opportunity to move."

Qin Ze shook his head and smiled: "The Golts have besieged us from all sides, but have not made any progress so far. They are waiting for an opportunity, but they can't wait for the next opportunity to attack."

"We can't let the Golts break through the defense line in front of Pariston. The battle on the southern defense line is fierce now. The enemy there is already attacking at the cost of casualties, not to mention the rear."

As soon as the voice fell, the signalman said: "Your Majesty, if there is no chance, the enemy troops in the north will retreat."

Qin Ze thought for a moment and nodded:

"The enemy commander in the north doesn't seem to be that reckless. If there is no news of a breakthrough from other battlefields, they may indeed withdraw."

"So what do you think? Do we need to take the initiative?" asked the communications soldier.

Qin Ze shook his head: "They are cavalry. Even if we send cavalry to attack, as long as they avoid fighting, they can escape and expose our true colors."

"There is no need to attack."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The communications soldier responded.

But then, Qin Ze suddenly said, "Go, take my order over and have everyone on the northern defense line withdraw back to the city."

"When you retreat, bring back all the artillery. We don't need that line of defense anymore."

"Let's see if they are willing to come and occupy it. If they do, haha...we will directly cover them with firepower. We will bombard the entire area indiscriminately within the range."

"Yes! Your Majesty!" The communications soldier immediately took the order and left.

-

Just after eleven o'clock, behind the main Goltish army.

"Sir, no, our casualties are increasing. We have to retreat temporarily and re-formulate the battle plan." At this point, Leo was already extremely anxious and could no longer care about anything else. He hurriedly admonished Saski.

Previously, they had finally withstood the enemy's fire suppression and forcibly occupied their positions, but before they could completely consolidate their positions, they were subjected to devastating intensive bombardment, which caused heavy casualties on their side. Saski was completely enraged and ordered a powerful attack in a panic, but up to this moment, the attack had not made much progress.

Although the front-line soldiers had organized multiple linear formations and were charging towards Pariston, on the opposite side, a large number of enemies were hiding in the houses on the edge of the town. They hid behind the windows of the houses, using them as artillery positions and continuously firing highly destructive shells.

Although the artillery units that advanced to the front were providing cover, the shells they fired were simply unable to penetrate the houses, the strength of which was beyond imagination.

After a period of exchange of fire, Leo belatedly remembered that since Pariston was close to the Enzos Mountains, most of the houses in the town were built with red sandstone produced in Enzos. Therefore, they were extremely strong and could be used as military buildings.

"Fight! Keep fighting!"

"I want to see how long they can hold out!"

Leo's exhortation did not shake Saski's determination. Although his own casualties were rising, the more this happened, the more furious he became.

In Leo's opinion, Saski's tough attitude at this moment was because he was blinded by anger. You know, the battle has lasted for nearly five hours, but not only has there been no significant progress on the front, even the enemy's flank defense line, which should have been weak, has not been broken yet.

Taking all of this into consideration, all previous assessments of the enemy would be overturned. There must be a large number of enemy troops and weapons stationed in Pariston, which is why they were able to defend the town like an iron barrel.

Thinking of this, Leo gritted his teeth, stepped forward, grabbed Saski's arm, and then admonished:

"Sir, if you decide to continue the attack, you must immediately order all the flanking troops to be brought back!"

Saski turned his head and looked at Leo angrily: "Why transfer them back?!"

Leo said with a grim expression: "Earlier, Riel sent someone to say that they were about to make a breakthrough on the southern front, but until now, there has been no progress. The same is true for Fili."

"In this situation, our flank quick attack has completely lost its effect. They are all light cavalry. A long battle will only put them at a disadvantage. Their numbers will decrease. We must stop the loss in time and focus here."

Saski immediately scolded, "Do you think the Yan people are not under pressure under such an attack? They will not be able to hold on!"

After he finished speaking, an officer beside him said in a low voice, cautiously: "Sir, what the Chief of Staff said... is not without reason."

"For our main force, it will be no problem to fight for a few more hours, but for the flank troops, they will not be able to gain an advantage in a short period of time, and will only become weaker and weaker..."

"You...really need to think about this carefully."

Saski's eyes widened, and the officer who spoke quickly lowered his head.

"You all think so too?!" Saski shouted at the others, and cautious voices were heard one after another.

"Hmm...Sir, we need to change our tactics..."

"I...I also think that some changes need to be made."

"Sir, this battle lasted longer than we expected, and the casualties were far higher than..."

Seeing everyone speaking out their thoughts one after another, Saski's expression became increasingly worse. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Attack for another half an hour! If we still haven't reached Pariston, we...we will retreat first."

"But listen carefully, this is only temporary! Strategic retreat! Do you understand?!"
