283. The Great Army besieged the city
In the misty world, on the wall of Baron Levinson's castle, He Yuanlong was frowning and looking at the black and oppressive aristocratic coalition army under the city. The joy of storming the castle a few days ago is long gone, and now their faces are full of worries, and they are not as cheerful as the refugees in the castle.
"My lord, don't worry about the coalition forces outside the city. We now have 2,000 men defending the castle, and they can't attack it for the time being. Just delay for a moment, and when the beast tide comes, they will definitely retreat. ”
Now knighted, Jaime was shrouded in armor and stood aside, comfortingly.
He Yuanlong smiled bitterly and said, "How much is two thousand? The number of coalition forces outside the city is close to this number, and it is still an organized regular army. Our 2,000 men, not to mention those who have not been trained, are only in their early 1,000s who can really contribute, and their physical fitness is much inferior to that of the enemy. ”
He was a student not long ago, so how do you know how to lead an army in a peaceful modern society? As soon as there is pressure from the outside world, the original form will be revealed. If he hadn't had the hole card of the Storm Bear Carving, he would have panicked a long time ago.
Jaime didn't speak again after hearing this, but he felt in his heart that it was not good for He Yuanlong to float his thoughts on his face like this, wouldn't he tell himself that something was wrong? It's just that he is hindered by his identity, so it's hard to persuade him again.
He Yuanlong felt a shock from the violent bear carving hanging around his neck, and a bunch of people suddenly appeared beside him, stacked into meat arhats one by one.
When he first saw the eastern faces of these people, he was overjoyed, and thought they were companions who had similar circumstances. Kindly, I stepped forward and helped them up from the ground, with their backs against the stone wall, which would be more comfortable.
"My lord, these people are of unknown origin, it's best to leave quickly!" Jaime took his two-handed greatsword from his back and said with a cautious expression.
He Yuanlong thought for a moment. He took a few steps back, then asked the carving, "King of the Forest, what are these people all about, are they my helpers?" ”
"No, they are Japanese spies who came to China, whatever you want. It's okay to use it as cannon fodder. Jiang Yiming was still torturing Xiao Linzi at this time, and gave a brief explanation.
Within a few minutes, the Japanese with his back against the hard stone wall woke up, took a quick look at the environment, and quickly locked his gaze on He Yuanlong.
Because Jaime's protective posture was so well done that everyone could tell who was in charge, and then muttered a long list of Japanese.
Sure enough, it's the Japanese, and spies are the most annoying!
Although He Yuanlong has never studied Japanese, he can still tell the difference when he often watches anime. He said to Jaime, "Let them be pressed down and used as the vanguard of the enemy, and they will be beheaded if they retreat." ”
"Vanguard, beheaded?" The group of Japanese people who could understand English suddenly lost their heads and asked suspiciously, "Where is this?" ”
"Fool, this is Lord He's castle. Remember! Jaime yelled at a cave not far away, and then spoke sternly to the Japanese.
Stomp. Not long after Jaime's roar, a group of ten refugee soldiers in leather armor and fully armed arrived and escorted the Japanese away with their swords. After the castle was laid, the refugees changed their guns and their equipment was greatly improved.
"My lord, I see that those people just now are all strong and powerful. It's good material to be a soldier, can you still recruit some more? Jaime suggested.
He Yuanlong shook his head and said, "Unlikely. Be careful not to let them escape, and if necessary, you would rather let them die. If they go to the coalition forces. It's bad for us. ”
"Yes, sir!" Jaime worked hard to learn the knightly style of his memory, intending to resolutely carry out He Yuanlong's orders.
Boom! A loud bang came from the castle gate into the ears of the two of them, and the stone ground under their feet seemed to shake slightly.
They had their faces pressed against the battlements, and they didn't have to stick their heads out to see the nobles attacking. A log more than a meter thick, rough to make the city's huge battering ram, under the lifting of dozens of people, hit the iron-clad gate.
He Yuanlong said in a panic, racked his brains to think of the siege battle in the costume drama, and came up with an idea: "Ah, what should I do now?" That's right, Timber! Jaime told the soldiers to throw a log down the city. ”
"My lord, what is a wood, is it similar to a big stone? Our people are already throwing stones. It's just that most of the stones in the city are used to build castles, and there are not many of them. ”
Although Jaime was also a little surprised, the coalition army only took a half-day break before attacking, and it seemed that he couldn't wait.
Bang bang! The coalition forces under the city had already prepared, and the thick solid wood shields greatly reduced the lethality of the stones.
He Yuanlong said hurriedly: "It's because the stone is not strong that the wood is lifted." It is a large log tied to an iron chain, and after throwing it down to kill enemies, it can also be pulled up and reused. ”
Jaime's eyes lit up, and he obviously knew the benefits of reuse, and hurriedly asked people to make four pieces of wood. He also nailed a lot of thick iron thorns into the wood to increase the lethality.
Boom! The battering ram slammed into the gate again, with a loud bang. Fortunately, Jaime arranged for the refugees to block a lot of stones and dirt behind the gate, which has been completely sealed, and the city gate cannot be broken through after several impacts.
He Yuanlong felt the vibration of the city wall under his feet, his heart pounded and beat so hard that he almost couldn't help but use his hole cards to show the color of the coalition army.
When the castle was first attacked, the twenty-meter-tall Treant could not get in and stayed outside. When it stood still, it looked like a normal tree, just two hundred meters away from the coalition forces.
Don't rush, wait until the critical moment to use it, the effect will be better! By the way, you can also ask the King of the Forest for support. He tried to suppress the panic in his heart, keeping his somewhat numb brain awake and thinking about what he could do now.
He Yuanlong put the beast bear carving to his mouth and said quickly: "King of the forest, there is a very urgent matter now. The castle is being attacked by a coalition of 4,000 nobles, so come here for some support, otherwise the castle won't be able to resist for long. ”
Here he played a little trick and doubled the number of enemies.
"What do you want? Separated by a world, you don't expect too much. Jiang Yiming actually knew about the siege of the noble alliance through the carving, but he would not take the initiative to contact him, and he would shirk it in advance.
Just kidding, when an employee is in trouble, will the boss take the initiative to lend a hand? There has never been such a well-meaning boss in the world, and the exploiters are not called for nothing.
He Yuanlong's heart was so anxious that he didn't notice Jiang Yiming's indifferent tone at all, and said urgently: "There is no mass destruction spell like this, bring me ten!" Now that those coalition forces are all gathered together, throwing down a big spell such as a Heavenly Fire Meteor can reimburse most of their soldiers. ”
"Sorry, no."
He Yuanlong's heart suddenly felt cold, as if he had been poured a bucket of ice water. (To be continued.) )
