There is a defense zone map on the table between Marquis Ekmeledin and the three of them.

The defense layout of Dagalisni is noted in detail above.

Including the number of troops stationed, types of troops, defense change time, etc.

The three major mercenary groups he hired were placed in different areas.

The Red-Eye Mercenary Group led by Blind Hall will be stationed at the southern defense line.

The Bald Heron mercenary group led by the one-winged bird Vijay is stationed at the eastern defense line.

As for the wavy brown-haired woman named Aya, and the kinslayer mercenary group she leads, they will be responsible for the west, which is opposite the direction of the giant city of Lentax.

This is also the direction that Marquis Eckmeledin focuses on.

The defenses in the three directions are strengthened by three mercenary regiments as supplementary forces.

For this reason, the Marquis specially allocated three independent defense zone nodes for them.

A reserve team has also been arranged.

Although the strength of the mercenary group is not weak, it is difficult for them to cooperate properly with the giant city garrison.

Rather than forcing the two to cooperate, it would be better to simply let the three mercenary groups take care of their own affairs.

If they give up their burden, let the reserve team take over.

The total number of soldiers in the garrison, security forces and knights in the entire giant city of Dagalisni is less than 800,000.

Emergency mobilization is currently underway, but it will take time to build combat effectiveness.

Aboriginal people also have reserve plans. Generally speaking, the number of reserve soldiers will not exceed 10% of the total force.

You must know that this kind of army that is completely off-duty and receives monthly salary consumes a lot of money.

Just the monthly consumption of food and equipment wear and tear is an astronomical figure.

Because of this, it is not easy for a giant city to expand the size of its army. There is a step-by-step process.

It also needs to match the local economic level.

If this were not the case, Marquis Ekmeledin would not have chosen mercenaries.

It seems that this is not the first time the three of them have taken on a commission.

In fact, medium and large mercenary groups often receive city defense tasks.

Mercenary organizations numbering in the tens of thousands are not something that ordinary small forces can afford to hire.

Wait until the basic details are almost finalized.

Blind Hall and the one-winged bird Vijay stood up and left.

Only the wavy woman Aya remained in her original position.

After the two left, she suddenly spoke.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis, is he in trouble?"

Mercenary organizations have always been sensitive to changes in the regional situation.

Even if you don't know the changes at the top, you can still get a glimpse of the truth from the trivial information.

The situation in Dagalisini has been relatively peaceful in the past, with no major disturbances. It can be regarded as one of the few large cities in the surrounding area that can be called stable.

Aya could see from the details of Marquis Ekmeledin's expression that he was a little nervous at this time.

There was no reason for this kind of worry, but it lingered in his heart, making the Marquis feel like he was stuck in his throat.

In Aya's view, this performance was as if the giant city of Dagalisini was about to face a powerful enemy.

And this is obviously without reason.

Whether overtly or covertly, she found no signs of the relevant situation.

This made Aya curious.

She took off her gentleman's hat and gently smoothed the wrinkles on the brim.

Hearing her question, Marquis Ekmeledin hesitated for a while before giving an explanation.

"Ms. Aya, don't worry too much."

"Dagalisini has no problem for the time being."

"I hired you just in case."

He paused for a moment after speaking, then turned around and pulled out a compiled document from the cabinet behind him and pushed it in front of Aya Dalang.

Aya put her gentleman's hat on her legs and picked up the document without hesitation and started reading it.

Above is the report on the fall of the great city of Lentax.

Combined with the oral records of some survivors who escaped in the chaos.

There are also some inferences from the reporters.

Because the top leaders of the Kingdom of Avalon have lost influence over the local giant cities.

Therefore, there has never been an official investigation report.

Archduke Jonathan knew the cause and effect, but he would not directly report the relevant situation to the giant city of Dagalisini.

Therefore, the investigation document of Marquis Ekmeledin was obtained only after he sent someone to take the risk and personally go to the ruins of the great city of Lentax.

Along the way, we also found many refugees who had escaped from the giant city at that time.

Although the Calamity Raven Church eventually took in most of the population, millions of people still managed to escape.

Those people have become valuable witnesses.

It's just that most of them fled earlier and failed to witness the power of the raven's will.

The information that could be asked was only scratched the surface.

But at least the Calamity Raven Church has confirmed its identity as the overthrower of the giant city.

After quickly flipping through the report, Aya knew what was going on.

"So, you are worried that the Calamity Raven Church will take action against the giant city of Dagalisni?"

Those who can defeat Lentax's forces have the strength to defeat Dagarisni.

There is no doubt about this.

Considering that the two giant cities are relatively close to each other, it seems understandable that Marquis Ekmeledin would have such concerns.

After all, Marquis Ekmeledin is indeed somewhat conservative by nature.

The private evaluation of him among the nobles was that he was "more than conservative but not aggressive enough".

Aya put down the document and looked up at Marquis Ekmeleddin.

After pondering for a moment, the Marquis shook his head.

"It's not just that."

"Although all the eyewitness descriptions and the information collected at the scene prove that it is the work of the Calamity Raven Church, according to what Grand Duke Chloe said a few days ago..."

"There is another black hand behind this matter."

"The target of that black hand is not just the giant city of Lentax, but may also involve the entire eastern part of the kingdom..."

His tone was heavy and he didn't explain clearly.

In other words, Marquis Ekmeledin himself was not sure of the truth.

These words made Aya silent.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and expressed her stance after a long time.

"Don't worry, I'm different from those two guys."

"The Kinslayer Mercenary Group will do its best."

She didn't make any promises, but her words still held a lot of weight.

At least it proves that she is interested in this matter.

The Parricide Mercenary Group will always have a little more strength.

Marquis Ekmeledin only hoped that they could actually create some results.

If someone really attacks the giant city of Dagalisni...

The two did not continue talking. Aya put on the gentleman's hat again, nodded slightly and left.

Sitting on his original seat, Marquis Ekmeledin frowned and didn't say much.

The main city gate on the west side of Dagalisne.
