Chapter Seventy-Five: The Battle Is Deadlocked
Although Baron Er'er has 200 cavalry, 200 soldiers, a total of 400 soldiers, and Musen City is only guarded by 200 soldiers who Tim originally brought back to Musen City, it is a pity that the walls of Musen City are tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if Baron Er'er's strength is twice that of Musen City now, it is difficult to attack it.
The strength of the horse collar and Musen City, now Alan does not attach too much importance to it.
After all, after Allen's war in the Bicao Territory ended, there were three choices, one was to go to Musen City to destroy the remnants of Baron Jean in Musen City, one was to annihilate the horse raising collar, and the last one was to eliminate the Kinmori Collar.
The reason why Alan chose to face the Konsen Collar first was because the Konsen Collar was stronger than the other two, and the Konsen Collar was solved, and the other two places were not much of a threat to Allen.
But what Alan didn't expect now was that the two guys who had given up the attack actually fought each other.
For Baron Er, who raised horses, Allen had to sigh that he was lucky to escape the war of the Green Grass Collar, otherwise he would definitely be like Baron Bouz, either died in the battle, or was killed by himself later, and now that he was lucky to survive, he began to make a whole moth.
As for Tim, the knight under Baron Jean, Alan also knows a little about the information sent by Andy, this guy was the weakest low-level knight under Baron Jean at that time, otherwise he would not have been sent by Jean to feint to raise a horse collar, this guy is also lucky, otherwise it is estimated that he will die in the war of the Green Grass Collar.
So the current battle in Musen City, in Allen's opinion, is a battle between two weak lucky people, which is not worth mentioning.
However, for the purpose of Baron Er, Allen was a little puzzled, and his head was a little confused, it was really what Baron Err did that Allen couldn't understand, and now that he has become the final winner of the war in the Bicao Territory, Er, this guy must have gotten the news.
Alan originally thought that after getting the news, Er'er would either hand over the surrender document early, or cower in the horse collar, but he didn't expect Er'er to make a surprise move and want to capture Musen City!
However, no matter who wins or loses these two guys in the end, and who Musen City belongs to, in the end, Alan will take Musen City back, so Alan no longer pays attention to this matter, and the specific trend should be handed over to the Shadow Section.
............
Outside Musen City, a few hundred meters away from Musen City, there is a military camp stationed, which is of course the military camp established by the horse breeder outside Musen City.
At this time, the gate of Musen City was closed, and the guards on the city wall were always watching the movement of the military camp in front of them.
Inside the leading camp for horse breeding.
Baron Err was discussing something with the butler Brie, and now that the low-ranking knights of the horse collar were out of Baron Er, only Brie was left.
Baron Err sat upright in his chair, his brows furrowed, and several strong attacks could not open the city gates, and his soldiers were killed by more than a dozen large stones thrown by the enemy on the city walls.
"Lord Baron, now that the gate of Musen City is extremely strong, it is not something that can be completed in a short time if you want to break through the gate from the outside, so my subordinates have thought of a new way to attack Musen City. After the failed siege, Brie thought about it for a long time and finally remembered a way.
"Oh! Brie said!" Baron Err asked, frowning, and hearing Brie's words.
"Lord Baron, this is going to talk about the last time, the Night Leader captured Musen City, it is said that in order to capture Musen City, Night Lord specially made a long ladder, which can be built on the city wall and let the warriors climb the city wall, and now we can also use this method to take Musen City!" Brie told Baron Err what he had come up with.
"How do you make a ladder?" Baron Err couldn't help but ask when he heard Brie's method, after all, such a long ladder is not easy to make.
"Don't worry, Lord Baron, this kind of ladder is just a lengthening of the ladder, and the carpenters who can make the ladder can basically make it, and now we only need to summon a few carpenters from the territory to make this kind of ladder, and then we can take the city of Musen on duty!" Brie explained with a smile.
"Very well, Brie you can arrange for a few warriors to return to the territory, and bring all the famous carpenters in the territory!" ordered Baron Er.
"Yes, Lord Baron, Brie will do it at once!" replied Brie.
............
In Musen City, Tim is also troubled, now Baron Jean has not returned, and there are even rumors that Baron Jean has been killed in battle, and the army is wiped out, although Tim does not believe this rumor, but now Lord Baron has not returned for a long time, and the people of the entire Musen City are in turmoil, all supported by these two hundred soldiers, and now the army is unstable, and there are rumors among the soldiers.
Originally, in order to stabilize the situation and block the attack of the horse collar before the Baron returned, Tim was ready to mobilize the rich merchants in the city and let them contribute money and efforts to help Musen City tide over the difficulties, but unfortunately now that the Baron is not there, these rich merchants do not listen to Tim's orders at all, and now there is a shortage of soldiers and food, and Tim does not know how long it can last.
Not long after, one of Tim's men, Diel, returned, and Tim hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? ”
Dill shook his head. "My lord, the grain storer said that no one could open the granary without the baron's order!"
"Didn't you tell him that the defenders were hungry now?
"My lord!" his subordinates have told him all, but the grain storer still insists that the granary should not be opened without the baron's order!" Dill grimaced.
"Okay, you go down first!" Tim waved at Diel.
"Yes, sir!" Dill replied, and withdrew.
Tim had a headache, this granary was set up by Baron Jean after he occupied Musen City, and it contained the food specially prepared by Baron Jean for the army, but no one could open it without the order of Lord Baron.
Due to the current defense of Musen City, the two hundred soldiers not only lost more than a dozen, but also the food was very scarce, which is why Tim arranged for Dill to go to the granary to ask the grain storage officer.
As for the grain storage officer of the warehouse, it was set up by Baron Jean when he established the warehouse, when Baron Jean initially occupied Musen City, in order to control Musen City, Baron Jean attracted a large number of wealthy merchants in Musen City, and gave a series of official positions to the wealthy merchants of Musen City, and the grain storage officer was one of them.
Tim guessed that the grain storer deliberately didn't want to open the granary at all, and took the baron's order not to open the granary easily, but in fact, after rumors spread in the city, this guy and the rich merchants behind him started the idea of the granary.
Once it was determined that the baron had died in battle, the guys would immediately swallow the entire granary, and if the baron returned with his troops, he could also rely on the rule that "you must not open the granary without the baron's order" and be invincible.
But in any case, once the grain is eaten, if the horse collar has not retreated, he can only forcibly open the granary! I hope that when the Baron returns, he will not blame me, Tim sighed in his heart.
