Chapter 303: Siege

On the second day of the assassination, Darius's army was finally assembled and began a tentative siege of Besilico that had been completely besieged - in a sense, an unsuccessful assassination was thus the beginning of the Battle of Besilico.

It's a pity that Queletta correctly guessed that Darius would go to Unnamed Lake, and that he didn't want others to follow her, but what she didn't guess was that Draven would follow on his own.

However, the assassination fell short—but Queletta was inexplicably ...... Relaxed.

Although she had made the decision to kill her former lover, Queletta didn't want Darius to die at the hands of the Assassins.

It's easy to understand, anyway, both of them used to be lovers, and even had two children.

Thinking of the child who died in Freljord, Queleta hardened her heart again.

Svein must be stopped, the endless expansion of Noxus must be stopped, otherwise she will not be the first mother to lose her child, and she will not be the last!

In the name of peace, go to war!

……………………

With the Trifali Legion as the backbone and the local legions as the wings and flesh, Darius soon completed the complete siege of Besilico and began his first tentative offensive.

As the backbone, the Cui Mana Legion was quietly by Darius's side, except for some people who served as temporary vanguard commanders and military judges.

Now is not the time for them to strike, and the battle always begins with a temptation.

In the midst of the rumbling of war drums, a special legion was pushed to the front - the Noxian Vanguard, and their identity was the vanguard and cannon fodder.

You know, because the Noxians don't use slaves, there must be a part of the Noxians as cannon fodder in the battle - what kind of people are used to send them to death?

The answer, of course, is the guy who made the mistake.

Most of these vanguards were those who had been punished for violating military law, and they would be the first to rush forward in battle and make tentative attacks.

In siege warfare, this is reflected in "carrying sandbags to fill the moat", and the entire vanguard no one carries two sandbags and rushes forward frantically to the sound of war drums.

During this period, the rear will provide only the necessary small amount of fire cover, and the commander's attention will be more focused on the enemy's counterattack, and as for the safety of these vanguards, it will only be left to fate.

Of course, if the soldiers in the vanguard did not retreat without their own accord, and if they returned, then their previous sins would be written off - this is Noxus.

For these characteristics of Noxus, Queleta who came to the city wall was very clear - looking at the undead cannon fodder, the corners of Qurieta's mouth showed a sneer.

Once the battle began, Raven let go of her restraints, and she was now finally on the front lines of the battle as a commander.

So in the face of these cannon fodder attacks, Queleta did not rush to strike, and all the archers of Besilico were ready to fire, but none of them pulled up the bowstring, and everyone lay on the battlements of the wall, quietly watching below.

Thanks to Queleta's many trainings, although the entire Besilico army is still far behind the Trifali legion, its combat capability is far superior to that of other local garrisons, especially in terms of orders and prohibitions.

Seeing that these vanguards had reached the edge of the moat within three hundred meters of the city wall, Queleta finally dropped his one-arm arm.

"Put!"

Besilik's archers quickly opened their bows, and a dense stream of arrows rained down.

It was just a round of strafing, and most of the vanguards, who had no protection in themselves, fell directly.

The archers on the walls of Besilico use special enchanted longbows, and the arrows fired from a high altitude can be said to be powerful, and most of the arrows are nailed directly to the ground.

But the drums of war did not cease - so not a single person in the entire vanguard retreated.

Those who could not afford to be seriously injured fell to the ground and groaned, while those who were not hit by arrows and were only slightly injured quickened their pace.

As long as the sandbag is thrown into the moat, the mission of this charge will be completed, and the previous guilt will be written off!

It's a pity that Queleta obviously won't let them get their way.

"Second formation, release the arrows!"

Another salvo.

This time, because the vanguard was closer to the city wall, the arrows were more powerful - most of the vanguard had already fallen, and now there were not many people left alive.

The first cannon fodder charge ended with a few sandbags being inadvertently thrown into the moat, with Queleta winning by a narrow margin.

Ignoring the lucky ones who had come back alive, Darius looked at Besilico from afar with the tall walls and wide moat, and fell into deep thought.

I have to admit that Besiliko did a good job in preparing for the war - especially in terms of the training of soldiers, Queleta is indeed a lord who is a trainer.

If you want to take Besilko, it seems that the vanguard does not make sense.

"Pass my order, prepare for the first formation, prepare for the pontoon operation team, fire cover!"

Since the vanguard cannon fodder is not used, then we will put the horses and horses into each other!

The drums beat again, and the squad carrying the magic pontoon mixed in with the first line of soldiers and began to charge.

This time, the charging Noxian soldiers were no longer without armor, most of them were wearing various types of leather armor, and although the arrows on the city walls were powerful, it was impossible to kill them with one blow like they had been in the face of cannon fodder.

But Queleta's reaction was also quick, and she decisively activated the fire bolt when the two volleys were not successful.

The range of the fire bolt was much shorter than the previous arrows - but the archers switched from direct to projectile, once again hitting the target area.

Under the fire of the fire arrows, the casualties of the first echelon of attacks suddenly increased.

"Master Darius, do you want to activate the counter-arrow protection?"

Seeing a large number of Noxian soldiers fall, a mage-dressed man beside Darius whispered a question.

"You don't have to make a claim." Darius glanced at the mage, "It's not time yet! ”

The mage said no more, and silently retreated—but judging by his expression, the mage might not be calm.

Darius knew exactly what the guy was thinking—the First Legion was from the same city as the temporary leader of the Mage Regiment, and he didn't want to destroy his garrison in a single battle.

But...... Darius you?!

"Speed up the drumbeat and charge again in the first formation!"
