The fierce battle lasted from morning to evening.

It was not until the sun set that the curtain finally came to an end on the first day of the offensive and defensive battle of Avalon fortress.

Neither Su Cheng nor Dominica wants to fight in the dark. Fighting in the dark will only increase unnecessary casualties.

After the sun set, the two armies withdrew at the same time with great tacit understanding.

Of course, it is impossible for all the troops on the wall of Avalon fortress to withdraw, but there are still a small number of troops to guard against the possible night attack by the Hiran army.

……

……

Hiram's army is in the formation and the commander-in-chief camp.

"1498 deaths, 2332 minor injuries, 318 serious injuries and 4548 total casualties."

After hearing the casualty report, Dominic's face quickly turned gloomy.

Dominic's face was not only gloomy, but the faces of all the generals in the camp quickly became ugly.

After a long time, Dominic breathed a sigh and said: "it's really worthy of Siege... It's also worthy of Avalon fortress. 4148 people were killed and injured in just one day..."

Siege - always the deadliest battle.

What's more, the "hammer battle" attacked not ordinary cities, but the first fortress of the British Empire such as Avalon fortress.

Although it was expected that the casualties would not be too small, Dominica could not help being surprised by the heavy casualties after really hearing the casualty report.

Heavy casualties are not terrible. The most terrible thing is that they paid heavy casualties but did not achieve excellent results.

Despite the fierce fighting today, no substantive progress has been made.

Although it was fought from morning to night, the battle was sawing on the wall of Avalon fortress.

Even after fighting until dawn, the Hiram army did not show any sign of being able to take Avalon's wall outside the Great Wall.

According to the report sent back by the soldiers, the order of Michael has become much stronger than before.

Because the Michael Knights have always been stationed in the north of the British Empire and always deal with the Hiram army. Some veterans of the Hiram army have rich experience in fighting with the Michael knights.

These veterans deeply realized that the Michael knights were really different from before.

The most obvious difference is that the order of Michael has become much stronger.

The soldiers of the Michael knights are much stronger than before. They wrestle with them. It is often the soldiers of their Hiram army who fall into the disadvantage.

These ordinary soldiers can only feel that the quality of the soldiers of the Michael Knights has been improved, but senior generals like Dominic, who have experienced many battles and have fought with the previous Michael knights for many times, can clearly feel that the command level of the Michael Knights has been improved by leaps and bounds compared with the past.

"Is it because the order of Michael carried out the 'commander system'?" Dominic whispered, "or because the head of Michael's Knight order was replaced by Su Cheng..."

Dominica is increasingly unsure whether it can succeed in capturing Avalon fortress by force.

……

……

meanwhile.

Avalon fortress, headquarters of Michael knights, command room.

Su Cheng, located in the command room, looked at the big map hanging on the wall and listened quietly to Willie's report standing behind him.

"In World War I today, 612 people were killed, 303 injured, 89 seriously injured, and 1004 casualties."

The casualties of the defenders are often lower than those of the sieges. Therefore, compared with the casualties of the Hiram army, the casualties of the Michael knights are undoubtedly much smaller.

After listening to Willie's report, Su Cheng only nodded gently.

"Well, hard work. The casualties of the Hiram army should be about four to five times that of our army. "

"Such a fierce battle will not last long. As long as we survive for a period of time, the morale of the Hiran army will fall sharply due to heavy casualties, and we can no longer launch such a fierce attack."

"I'm afraid that at that time, the Hiram army will change its strategy and no longer fight with us, but fight with us for troops and food." Willie smiled bitterly.

"They can fight whatever war they want, whether they want to fight with us or fight with us for troops and food. No matter what war he wants, I will accompany him to the end."

Su Cheng smiled a few times and then continued:

"If they really want to fight with us, we still have the advantage."

"They are labor expeditions, and we are local defense."

"In addition, the number of our troops is much smaller than them, and the logistical pressure is only a fraction of theirs."

"If we want to fight a war of soldiers and food, I'm afraid they can't consume us."

"Today's battle was also very good. The Hiram army did not take any advantage from beginning to end, and did not achieve any results. The outer wall of Avalon fortress still stands."

As soon as Su Cheng's voice fell, Willie, standing behind Su Cheng, smiled:

"Yes, the casualties of the Hiram army are far greater than ours. As long as we can maintain the momentum today, we will win."

In the siege war, the siege side will always be the losing side.

From the very beginning, the cavalry of Michael had an advantage in the attack and defense of Avalon fortress.

Willie is not arrogant. What he just said is really right.

As long as they continue to maintain today's momentum and do not have any accidents, then their Michael Knights will surely win.

After listening to Willie's words, Su Cheng just smiled.

Then continue to look at the map in front of you.

The large map hanging on the wall is a detailed map of the aghar corridor and its surrounding areas.

Su Cheng has seen this map thousands of times, but he is still looking at it and thinking about something.

After a while, Su Cheng quietly said to Willie behind him:

"Will you win the fortress attack and defense..."

"It's really not difficult to win the fortress attack and defense, but my goal is not just to hold Avalon fortress."

After that, Su Cheng quickly sat back behind the long table in the command room without waiting for Willie to respond.

"Willie, please contact the Northern Territory Administration for me and tell them that Su Cheng wants to meet with Mr. Humphrey alone to discuss the important matters about how to defeat the Hiran army. Please ask Mr. Humphrey to come to Avalon fortress quickly."

"Let Mr Humphrey come to the north?" Willie was surprised.

"Yes, that's right." Su Cheng said in an indisputable tone, "go and contact the north border administration."

"Yes!"

After saluting Su Chengjing, Willie quickly left the command room and began to contact the northern border administration.

After Willie left the command room, Su Cheng took a piece of paper placed on the long table.

Took the pen.

Then he solemnly wrote a line of big characters on this paper - the great revolution of the northern kingdom
