082 Hope

"Reinforcements! Reinforcements have arrived! ”

The shouts of excitement sounded on the wall of the east gate, and soon spread throughout the entire western guard tower, and the spirit of the soldiers who were fighting was suddenly shocked, and the arms that were originally sore and numb were instantly full of strength as if they had taken stimulants, and the weapons in their hands waved fiercely at the enemy in front of them, and several robbers who had just rushed to the city were black before they could stand firm, and they did not understand why they died at the hands of an exhausted enemy.

At the head of the West Gate City, the adjutant who commanded the battle had a bright eye, and after wielding a knife and cutting off a head, he didn't care about the blood on his face, so he snatched the military flag of the standard-bearer next to him, and waved the big flag vigorously, and roared out the overture of the counterattack in the hunting of the battle flag:

"Warriors! Counterattack! Counterattack!!! ”

"Kill!"

The waving battle flag did not convey any orders, but the soldiers who were far away on the city wall understood the battle intent that rushed to the sky, and the momentum that originally regarded death as home suddenly rose to the sky, killing all the enemies who rushed to the city wall in an instant, and several siege ladders were also overturned by the frenzied soldiers.

"Damn it, withdraw!"

'Crowblade' Sigru took a sip fiercely, and looked at his subordinates who were forced by the momentum of the soldiers defending the city and were too frightened to step forward, so he had to give the order to withdraw the troops.

The robbers who were hesitating under the city walls in front of them were pardoned, and as soon as they turned around, they ran away, fearing that they would not run fast enough, and even throw their weapons and shields aside, only to be reaped hundreds of lives by the rain of arrows from the city.

"Damn it!"

Sigru took another sip, pulled over a henchman beside him, and whispered a few words in the henchman's ear, a hint of disbelief flashed in the man's eyes, but he nodded anyway and quickly ran away.

Compared with the depressed frustration of the besieging side, the soldiers in the western watchtower began to revel, and after Nodia regained the military power, the first order was to open the prohibition order, and everyone reveled!

Although today's defensive battle was won because of the arrival of reinforcements, for the soldiers defending the city, the pressure of death all the time is real, and it will not disappear because of a temporary victory, they need to release, they need a carnival, they need a reckless drinking, they need to paralyze themselves with drunkenness, and they need to forget those wounds and forget their dead comrades.

In today's battle, the garrison of the western guard tower suffered great casualties, although the overall strength of the soldiers was much stronger than the robbers besieging the city, but it could not stand the tide of the enemy, the battle just started five minutes, the soldiers were casualties, but fortunately, the two priest teams quickly went up, saved the lives of the wounded, and allowed the lightly wounded to quickly return to the battlefield, which lasted until the arrival of reinforcements.

In the barracks, the soldiers of the western watchtower were still partying, and the noise filled every corner of the west, but in the room at the top of the tower, several people sat together with solemn faces.

"Lord Earl, the garrison of the western watchtower is up to you."

Nodia looked at the carnival outside the window with a heavy face, but the pain on her face could not be hidden.

"Don't worry, I'll be ready to defend against a night attack."

Celica nodded, they had already received accurate information from the adjutant, in this battle, the robber side participated in the battle are all some unpopular guys, not a single intermediate professional, and a few of the gray crows she is more familiar with have not appeared, obviously, the real elite of the gray crow side are still dormant, maybe when they will jump out and launch a new attack.

What's even more worrying is that the news from the adjutant pointed out that even if not a single elite bandit appeared in this battle, the number of participants was still nearly 1,000, and each wall was attacked by at least 200 people, and if it weren't for the advantage of the city wall, it might not even be able to stop it for five minutes.

"In this way, after the other party has gathered the rout, there will be at least nearly a thousand people, and nearly half of them are elite forces, and the rest are not weak."

Nodia had a solemn face, and as soon as he returned to the barracks, his IQ rose, and Nodia's judgment of the battle situation at this time was not inferior to that of the Valkyrie Silica.

"The Grey Raven itself has an elite combat power of more than 300 people, and looking at the group of cannon fodder who were called to participate in the battle today, the Gray Raven side should have at least 400 elite combat power, which is still a conservative estimate."

Celica's face was not very good-looking, and she suddenly felt that she was too arrogant, and she wanted to defeat the Gray Raven bandit group that had been planned for many years with five hundred troops, and now it seemed too naΓ―ve.

"And there is also the ace power of the other party."

Nodia also sighed, originally thinking that the small ace army brought by Sirika was enough to deal with all the accidents, but now it seems that it is still not enough, far from enough.

"Even with a conservative estimate, the opponent's ace power is at least twenty people, and not counting the spellcaster."

Sirika shook her head and picked up on Nodia's words, which was also the biggest shortcoming of the Western Guard Tower, a shortage of spellcasters.

There are spellcasters under Celica's command, but they didn't bring it this time, and the two squad priests who were originally stationed there had also overdrawn their mental power in the previous battle, and they lost their spell-casting ability within at least two days.

And if you send people to Hurdl Manor to ask for help now, you will inevitably be intercepted by the Gray Crows, and sending fewer people is no different from meat buns and dogs, and if you send more people, you will weaken the defense of the western sentry tower, and you will be attacked by the Gray Crows before you can even wait for reinforcements.

The small makeshift conference room fell silent in an instant, and the current situation is a dead end, holding on, seeing no hope, and asking for help is tantamount to hastening death.

"Actually, there's a force in our neighborhood."

A voice suddenly broke the solemn silence, and Sirika and Nodia turned their heads abruptly to look at Sawyer, who spoke, but Sawa also turned his head to look at the figure sitting in the corner.

Everyone followed Sawyer's gaze, and the figure also felt everyone's gaze, and slowly raised its head, but its face was still hidden in the shadow of the hood.

"Click......?"

Hearing the sound of bones rubbing, Sirika's heart tightened, and her right hand involuntarily supported the hilt of the sword, but Nodia next to her pressed her shoulder and shook her head silently in the face of Sirika's gaze.

"Eastak, the former Winterkeep mage, although he was reincarnated as a skeleton for some reason, he still retains the memories and feelings of humans," Sawyer briefly introduced, then looked at Ishdaq again, "Ishdaq, how many men have been gathered during this time?" ”

"Click, click, click......" (close to a hundred, you ran out of potions for me, useless, this skeleton can't save the western watchtower.) οΌ‰

"What if it's an attack on the Grey Swamp Fortress?"

Sawyer spoke, and everyone in the conference room was slightly stunned, a hundred skeletons may not be worth mentioning to the army of gray crows outside the watchtower, but what if it is a fortress in the gray swamp that defends the emptiness?

"Attack it and save it?"

Sirika's eyes lit up, obviously seeing the feasibility of this plan, but then she wrinkled her head again: "No, although it is possible to capture the Grey Swamp Fortress with this little force, the Grey Raven only needs to send twenty percent of the troops to recapture the Grey Swamp Fortress, Sawyer, what about the follow-up plan?" ”

"Rick, how long will it take to dispose of the corpses outside the city?"

Sawyer didn't answer Sirika, but turned his gaze to Rick, who had been silent.

"Huh? I? Rick seemed to be startled, and was stunned for a moment before responding: "There are about five hundred robber corpses outside the city, and it takes about two minutes to process each one, and if there is enough medicine, it will take me a whole day to dispose of them all." ”

"Don't worry, they are all refined-grade potions, and the toxin accumulation is not high, so it should be enough for you."

Sawyer took out a potion belt from the space, and twenty light blue mana potions were neatly arranged in the potion belt.

"Ha, that's enough, and I still have a hundred level 20 corpses in my space."

Rick opened a mana potion and sniffed it, nodded in satisfaction, and instantly hit Sawa with a casual word.

A hundred corpses? Sawyer was speechless in an instant, you kid is here to show off his wealth, right? Not to mention the space equipment that can hold a hundred corpses, even if Sawyer is packaged and sold, it may not be possible to exchange it for a space equipment half the size.

While Sawyer and Rick were discussing the issue of disposing of the corpse, Sirika also walked to Istak on the side.

"Here's for you," Celia pulled out a defense map and handed it to Istak, pointing to a few of them, "These places have always been a defensive hole in the Grey Swamp fortress because they are difficult to attack, but I guess it shouldn't be difficult for skeletons to attack from these places, right?" ”

"Click?"

Istark looked at the defense map, thought for a moment, then nodded, and reached out to make a gesture of three.

"What do you mean?"

Sirika looked at Sawyer on the side, Sawyer turned his head and glanced at the defense map in Istak's hand, and saw a very obvious annotation of the Ash Swamp Fortress at the top, and couldn't help but smile, it seems that Xue Man is not without ideas about the Ash Swamp Fortress!

"What he means is that in three hours, in three hours the skeleton army will be able to reach the Grey Swamp fortress, and now, N ......" Sawyer took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "It's eight o'clock in the evening, which means that the skeleton troops will attack at eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, which is almost exactly the time when the defenders of the Grey Swamp fortress are at their laxest." ”

There isn't much nightlife in Skyrim, ordinary people with families or boyfriends and girlfriends may do some 'sports' when the lights are turned off, and people in the city may ask for a glass of honey in the tavern for a few hours, but most of these activities are before ten o'clock, after all, for people who have to get up at four or five o'clock in the morning to work, ten o'clock is already late at night.

Not to mention the Grey Swamp Fortress with no entertainment, and maybe some mead, but it will only make the bandits who stay behind even more relaxed.

"Oh?" Sirika's eyes lit up, "That's great, and in this way, our plan is more certain." ”

Several other people in the conference room also smiled slightly, the originally solemn atmosphere suddenly relaxed, the pressure of the approaching war seemed to be a little less, and a flame called hope was beating in everyone's eyes.
