Looking at the faces of these people, Torento felt nervous and realized that things did not seem optimistic. He quickly got out of the carriage and entered the City Lord's Mansion.
He was the last one to arrive. The city lord and other pastors were already in place, holding a meeting to discuss how to deal with the Byron vampire invasion.
"This time it's not just those blood-sucking monsters. There are reports of zombies killing people everywhere."
"The outer city wall has been breached. The blood-sucking monsters killed the city defense soldiers and let the zombies in."
"Are you kidding me? How could a blood-sucking monster be so smart? I don't believe it. Those useless soldiers must be making excuses for themselves!"
"Don't worry about those useless things. The zombies are coming towards us now. We have to find a way to stop them!"
"The blood-sucking monsters are troublesome enough, but where do all these zombies come from? We don't have enough soldiers!"
"Or else, we should mobilize the nobles, gather private soldiers, and kill all the zombies in one go."
"What a joke! How could a noble lend us their private soldiers? Even if it was you, would you be willing to use your own private soldiers to fight off the zombies?"
"I……"
There was a lot of noise in the room. Several shepherds were arguing with each other. The Lord of Sundburg sat in the main seat with a frown on his face, listening to the shepherds quarreling without saying a word.
When Torento came in, he first saluted the city lord, then found a place to sit down. He had someone bring him the information and he quickly read through it.
When I saw this, my heart suddenly skipped a beat and I felt sick all over.
Lost contact in the suburbs, exact losses unknown.
The outer city wall was breached and more than 200 soldiers defending the city were slaughtered.
The blood-sucking monster opened the city gate and the zombies invaded in large numbers.
Fires broke out in the city, and citizens were slaughtered by zombies and blood-sucking monsters.
The enemy's route was towards the inner city.
Either way, it's not good news.
What a big trouble!
Torento turned to the end of the intelligence and looked at the number of enemies. There were hundreds of blood-sucking monsters and nearly a thousand zombies.
Grass!
His head seemed to have been hit, making a buzzing sound, and Torento felt his hands and feet getting cold.
How to fight this?!
Are you kidding me?
The total number of soldiers defending Sundberg was only over a thousand, plus three thousand serfs who had received rough training, totaling only four thousand.
The one thousand defenders were not gathered together, but were scattered throughout the city of Sundberg. As for the three thousand serf soldiers, their combat effectiveness was really disappointing. They were okay in favorable battles, but when facing the blood-sucking monsters, their morale collapsed and they were slaughtered.
Even so, the number of soldiers defending the city was reduced by two layers at the beginning of the battle. The exact number of casualties is still unknown, but such a heavy loss will have an impact on the morale of the soldiers.
If we don't come up with a solution quickly, there will be big trouble.
There are three knight nobles under Sundberg. Each knight noble has his own village and employs dozens or hundreds of servants. These people can be used as soldiers and have no problem going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. Even if we send people to invite the knights and nobles now, they will be in a hurry for manpower. It's late at night, and by the time the knights and nobles come, the battle will be over.
Now, the only ones we can rely on are probably the nobles' private soldiers.
If the private soldiers could be gathered together, they would be a powerful force that could not be ignored, and their combat effectiveness would be several levels higher than that of the soldiers defending the city.
Torento himself has a lot of private soldiers. He is very clear about the combat effectiveness of his private soldiers. It is not an exaggeration to say that one can defeat ten.
The private soldiers eat well every day, do not have to work, and train combat skills every day. Naturally, their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the soldiers defending the city.
The only trouble is that the nobles won't help!
