Chapter 90: Moving Like Thunder 2
The warm sun is shining,
In this beautiful weather, there should have been a lot of pedestrians on the streets of Bolai City, but today the streets are exceptionally deserted.
Although the people in the city don't know what is going on, they can feel the breath of slaughter.
instinctively hid at home, and the aristocratic businessmen who found the abnormality even confined the mansion and did not dare to go out easily.
Outside Sadeburg, thousands of garrison soldiers had surrounded the castle, the streets in the distance had long been emptied of pedestrians, and some of the slightly higher roofs were already full of archers of the garrison.
The garrison came suddenly, but the guards of Sadeburgh reacted very quickly, and when they found the garrison approaching, they had lowered the iron gate and were on guard.
"My lord, this is the castle of the Saad family, which has been in business for several generations, and is the head of the twelve families of Blai in terms of financial resources and armed forces."
In the open space outside Sadrburg, Dane was following Thor and introducing Thor to the Thad family.
After reorganizing the garrison to the point where it was basically under control, Thor brazenly dispatched and surrounded the Saad family all the way under the guidance of Dane.
Thor was in a hurry, and he didn't want to play any tricks to kill chickens and monkeys, he wanted to find the strongest monkey to kill the chickens, and completely crush the resistance of the nobles in the river valley.
While Dane was introducing the situation of Sade's house, Thor was also carefully observing the castle in front of him,
From a purely military point of view, the castle is indeed impregnable.
The height of the city is nearly seven zhang, which is nearly half higher than the outer wall of the city of Bolai, and the wall is made of solid bluestone, and the base is also nearly five zhang.
There are also a large number of protrusions reasonably distributed on the city for the archers defending the city to shoot, and there is no shooting blind spot at all, and it can even form a cross firepower advantage for the besieging side.
Of course, the most important thing to defend the city is not whether the city wall is tall or not, whether the fortress is strong, the most important thing is the people, if the people defending the city are not good at fighting and the will to fight is not enough, no matter how strong the castle is, it will be easily breached.
At this time, the warriors on the castle were already in full battle, and although most of them had a little doubt in their eyes, they had no intention of fighting.
These are all professional fighters who have long been fed by the THAAD family's Jinnar, and most of the family members are also begging for a living in the THAAD family's property, and they have long been tied to the THAAD family, and they will definitely fight for the THAAD family to the death.
"It's a pity."
After watching, Thor shook his head and sighed.
It is a pity that Thor is naturally a group of professional warriors of the Sade family, and with his eyes, he can naturally see that the warriors on the castle are not bad.
It should be stronger than the combat effectiveness of the garrison legionnaires, and even with Thor's pickiness, it can be called an elite,
It's a pity that these people are all diehard loyalists of the Sade family, and if you want to kill the monkey of the Sade family and deter the nobles of the river valley, you must eliminate this elite army.
It's a pity that this elite force didn't pull to the Northland to fight the ogres, but had to be consumed in the internal friction of rectifying the river valley.
"Kuz."
"The subordinates are here!"
"If I want you to command the garrison to attack Sadrburg, I can be sure."
"It depends on how long the adults give."
"One day."
"One day?"
Kutz frowned after hearing this, and fell into thought,
He quickly shook his head and replied
"The subordinates are incompetent, such a strong castle, even if the siege equipment is sufficient, it is difficult to take it in one day,
Forcibly driving soldiers to attack the city with ants will only cost the lives of the soldiers, and it will take at least several months to besiege and build fortifications before there is a chance to break the city. ”
Kuz is a soldier, and he knows how difficult it is to fight this kind of small castle with a small area and a strong will to defend the battle.
The castle is only so small, it is difficult to develop the numerical advantage when attacking the city, and the elite level of the opponent is still above the own army.
Even if the Praetorian Guards of the royal capital are brought in, it does not take a few days to build a large number of siege equipment, and then attack on all sides with an absolute numerical advantage, it is impossible to easily break this castle.
The most practical way to deal with this kind of fortified city is to besiege it for a long time, besiege him for a year and a half, and surround it until the people are panicked, and the ammunition and food are exhausted, and there is no need to attack, and the enemy himself may collapse first.
So realistically speaking, it is unrealistic for Kuz to take this Saad Fort in one day without building a large number of siege equipment in advance.
"You're right, but this castle must be taken down in a day, and we can afford to wait, and the Northland can't afford to wait."
While the two were talking, Viscount Sade and others also appeared at the head of the city.
Viscount Sade rarely put on his military uniform, pressed his sword and looked down and shouted:
"Dane come out!
Privately led an army to surround the castle of the kingdom and officially canonized the viscount, and he was not afraid that the king would be blamed? ”
Viscount Sade still doesn't understand the situation, and habitually wants to occupy the name of righteousness, whether it's true or not, he has to buckle a hat on Dane's head when he comes up.
Dane heard Sade call him by name directly at the head of the city, and instinctively wanted to go out and shout twice to blow the other party's morale,
But as soon as Dane lifted his foot, Thor waved at him and motioned for him to stand down.
"I'll do it."
Dressed in golden dragon scale armor, Thor walked out of the crowd and stood in a prominent position,
"I am Thor the Dragon Knight of the Town Kingdom, the Temporary Governor of the River Valley,
The THAAD family forcibly seized the people's land, encroached on the military land, and evaded the payment of taxes. ”
Thor's speech was very neutral, and the sound spread was equivalent to almost the entire castle hearing Thor's shouting,
The people in the castle were in an uproar,
It's not that I'm shocked by those charges, the things Saul said are so common in the river valley,
In fact, when it comes to the head of any river valley lord, this list of crimes is eight or nine inseparable.
What really surprised them was that Thor claimed to be the Dragon Knight of the Town Kingdom, the Dragon Knight had a transcendent status in the Golden Dragon Kingdom, and Thor himself was even more prestigious, so they couldn't help but be surprised.
"It's fake, the dragon knight doesn't even have a dragon."
"That's it, if there really is a dragon, I think Viscount Sade, you can just let people open the door and surrender, this person doesn't even have a dragon and dares to call himself a dragon knight, and wants to deceive the castle."
"Lord Thor is sitting in the royal capital, how can he come to the river valley."
"Maybe it's Dane's villain who made the impostor, this insatiable thing even dares to fight the ideas of the Thad family."
The name of a man, the shadow of a tree,
After Saul first reported his identity, it really made the nobles in the castle a little flustered, but soon someone caught a "loophole",
This person who calls himself Thor doesn't even have a dragon, what kind of dragon knight is this, after thinking about it like this,
Several nobles even said a word, just like playing everyone to find faults, and picked out a bunch of evidence that Thor in front of him was an impostor, and there was no panic at the beginning.
Only Viscount Sade, who was dressed in military uniform, frowned, and did not look relaxed at all.
Viscount Sade lived longer and was more well-informed than several other nobles, having had the privilege of meeting dragon knights in the royal capital when he was young
He could see that the golden armor on Thor was the dragon knight's exclusive dragon scale armor.
If that person is really Thor, then Dane's previous behavior will be explained, only when Thor suddenly appears, can Dane not dare to resist the mind, and even the king himself may not be as majestic as Thor.
Although I don't know why the golden dragon is not with the dragon knight, Viscount Sade has already determined Thor's identity for nine points,
However, Viscount Sade did not make a statement, because of the absence of the golden dragon,
He also dared to gamble that his castle would hold up for a few days, and then tie up the other eleven families to fight for a chance to negotiate terms with Thor......
