Scene 26 Expansion (7)

Antinina put her hands on her chest, silently watching more and more figures walking in the forest. Since entering the Frost Moon, although the first snow of Eruin is still some days away, the temperature at night has become very low. A thin layer of white gas that everyone oozed out in the cold air enveloped the logging field to form a cloud and mist. After the female wall, the soldiers *** set off to resist the cold. The cold silence at night brought a touch of killing and tension. .

Almost all the mercenaries had arrived on the wooden wall, and there was no reserve team-although Yuta and Klenhiya strongly opposed it, Brando told her personally that it was not necessary, so it was the truth for the aristocracy.

"What if you have an emergency? This is putting everyone at risk!"

In answering the indignant question of the headwoman, Antitina suddenly had a playful thought from her heart; she thought that if Brando lied to her, she would become a ghost after she died. Haunt the young man.

This sudden thought scared her, and even a touch of ruddy permeated her face, and she was slightly hot. She breathed a sigh of relief and shook her head carefully to drive the idea out of her head.

But Yuta looked at the aristocratic girl with a blush as if in a daze, and then shook her head and gave her an answer: "This is what the Lord Lord ordered-" he couldn't help but accumulate before The feeling of getting up on the other side was lost.

This irresponsible answer made Utta turn around and walk away, and he went to visit his men with annoyance. Before leaving, he still secretly cursed 'self-righteous nobleman' in her heart, but if it was before, she must be in front Antitina uttered such words in her face, not in her back.

In fact, even she didn't even realize that they had already been influenced by Brando. Because she thought about it the other way around, at least she no longer objected to such a one-time investment.

Since it was the young man's order, then he must have his reason.

With the same thought, Clenthia also stopped opposing. It was just that he looked back and saw a smile on the dark face of the tall head of the Great Fireland Regiment, and the silver-haired middle-aged man froze.

"Did you know?" When he asked that, he instinctively developed a sense of alertness.

But Fern seemed to see through this thoughtful old fox, and he smiled indifferently *** Nose: "That little girl is calmer than you and me, and you think she's going to lead in a random way Person? It's the young Lord Lord who can command her here ... "

"You're observant," Krenhia snorted.

"One another." Fern flashed the thought in his mind, but didn't say it. There is an experienced mercenary around him who estimates the number of cavemen in the forest at regular intervals. He just silently listened to the sound of the same count and said nothing.

There were thousands of cave dwellers soon, and they were moving in the forest, causing everyone's alert.

The stars on the night are fickle, but time has finally passed the first two hours after midnight. At first Antitina finally got down when she struggled with tiredness and Roman's endless weird problems, but as she blinked her sleepy eyes and wanted to suppress a yawn, she heard a series of unusual sounds.

It was the sound of the surrounding mercenaries holding up the crossbow in their hands.

Our aristocracy hit a spirit immediately, she looked up and saw that the cavemen in the forest finally had movement. They lined up out of the forest-one or two bear goblins every line between the line. Raise a huge wooden shield to cover.

"Are there siege appliances?"

The voice of mercenaries asking each other passed through the city.

"No!"

"did not see!"

The scout's voice passed immediately from the tower. Almost everyone was relieved, "Master guessed again-" Antitina stood behind the female wall, thinking as usual.

The cavemen began to accelerate at a distance of about 150 yards. Looking from the wooden wall, they only started to trot, but the sea surface formed by a giant wooden shield had already flowed.

One hundred yards.

Fifty yards.

At this moment, Yuta issued a firing order in unison with Fern and Klenthia. When hundreds of crossbows were released at the same time, a trembling sound made everyone's ears numb, and everyone saw dense The crossbow formed a translucent white line sweeping forward-like a blade.

The blade swept across the cavemen's forward formation. About two or three rows of underground creatures were stagnant at the forefront, and the cavemen rolled down with the bear goblins. An obvious gap immediately appeared in the complete formation.

But everyone knows that the real lethality of the crossbow to the caveman is only known by God. Before they could reach the second crossbow, they saw a crowd of people coming from behind to fill the gap in front.

Almost a moment later, the cavemen had successively killed under the wooden wall outside the logging yard.

The wooden wall is composed of four layers of logs, and the soil is filled between each two layers. For a logging yard to build such a fortification, the three chiefs thought that the cavemen were wasting raw materials. When they hit the wooden shield, they began to regret it.

The bulky creatures took huge steps with their bodies and slammed the weight of the wooden shield on their hands. The wooden walls immediately made a sour sound, and the logs in some places even began to tilt backwards-know these Logs were penetrated deeply into the ground by nearly a third of their length.

Everyone heard the sound of the wooden wall squeaking under their feet, which was frightening. In contrast, cavemen who stepped on the wall with wooden shields and leaned on their strong hind limbs were harmless to humans and animals.

Mercenaries drove these uninvited guests down the wooden wall, but the caveman's attack was obviously not finished, and soon the mercenaries screamed on the wall:

"They're digging tunnels!"

The tiger **** made Antitina back a little, and then the captain of the Rubis mercenary leaned his hands on the female wall and looked down-he really saw the cover of the wooden shield raised high by those bear goblins. Underneath, the cavemen dug quickly underneath the soil—they were astonishingly fast and worthy of the title of the people of the ground.

However, there was no fire oil in the logging field, and even the stones were pitifully small. The mercenaries tried to throw away the logs, but unfortunately these 檑 檑 were not effective at all to the bear goblin.

Fortunately, they have plans. Some people immediately left the city in accordance with the original plan and withdrew from the side of the trench dug in the afternoon.

Those trenches were dug up to deal with the authenticity of cavemen. According to Brando's instructions, each one was several meters deep, so when the caveman dug through the first tunnel for nearly half an hour, the caveman who walked in front was immediately squeezed out Ditch bottom.

These cave dwellers were not without exception being thrown up, they raised their heads subconsciously in order to tell what was going on, but waiting for them were human spears. Although the cavemen are superior in fighting ability, in the face of more than a dozen spears, they can only be stabbed into the end of a hedgehog.

After losing dozens of people, the caveman realized that the road was not working. So they had to go back and choose a more direct and rude way-the mercenaries on the wooden wall soon found it ugly:

These guys are starting to take the ladder!

This is an effective method, the only drawback is that they have to abandon the huge bear goblins in the army. -Those bear goblins squatted at the bottom of the ladder and raised wooden shields to build a platform for the cavemen-so that they could easily reach the edge of the outer wall of the wooden fortress.

"Net!" Antinina raised her eyebrows when she noticed the situation, and called out immediately.

Crencia and Fern at her side immediately conveyed the order, and the wooden walls around the logging yard suddenly made orders. The next moment, huge nets erected by wooden shelves were braced by mercenaries and pushed them out of the wall, covering the cavemen down like a huge pat.

The net is simply woven from oil ropes. This thing and the wooden piles that make up the outer frame of the net are taken locally, and are everywhere in the logging field. This simple net gear looks absolutely ridiculous in a battle between humans and humans, but it is effective for cavemen who are not good at siege.

As the cave dwellers were climbing up and dealing with these difficult nets, the mercenaries were able to stay high and be at ease, and the underground creatures that launched the storm quickly suffered huge losses.

Seeing this scene, the three people, Yuta and others, couldn't help but be amazed, simple but effective, and different from the tactics of most regular army; this is not like a nobleman or a knight should come up with, it is more like Their old-fashioned mercenaries' 'emergency strategy'-but this is exactly the 'emergency strategy' that the young lord had ordered in advance, which surprised them a little, but they didn't know that players had a big game in the past. Among the small and large wars, the most invented are these whimsical 'skills'.

With simple nets, the mercenaries beat the cavers in a row. However, the footsteps of the battle inevitably entered the white-hot stage. After all, the large net woven by oil ropes was not unbreakable. As more and more cavemen broke through the block, the battle on the wooden wall finally began to see blood.

Humans have suffered losses for the first time, and the number of casualties is rapidly increasing. In frontal battles, cavemen's individual combat strength advantage gradually emerged.

The mercenaries stepped back step by step. As more and more cavemen swarmed into the city, they found that the previous advantages no longer existed, and even worse, the defenders in many places were kicked out. Creature seems to break in at any moment.

Although they are not good at siege, the advantages in numbers have covered all the defects.

Sweaty Clenia and Fern both set their sights on Antitina, and they knew that the only key to turning the tide at this moment might be the noble girl. Of course, if she didn't act, then they would end the battle in their own way.

The two heads made the same decision at the same time.
