Chapter 36: The Defenders
"Here! Over here! Here......"
After wiping out most of the rich merchant army just now, Rahu locked down several small forces, including the surrounding rich merchant army, and instructed his priests to launch a single spell attack on them.
In the case of Rahu commanding the priest to carry out targeted strikes, with the exterminated rich merchant army as the center, the surrounding area, from the commander to the soldiers, was completely wiped out, creating a blank area on the city wall.
Rahu then asked his priest to stop his attack, and the Sakura Archer to stop shooting, and he himself rose into the air with an army of 1,000 swordsmen mounted on griffins, making a posture ready to force their way onto the empty area.
But Rahu didn't take any real action, just put on such an appearance that he was ready to forcibly climb the wall.
"My lord, please send soldiers to defend the empty space cleared by the enemy as soon as possible!" A player said next to the commander of the military headquarters of the city of Versailles in the aristocratic district.
"The enemy is ready to climb the walls, and if there are not enough soldiers to drag them to defend them, the enemy will easily come to the walls."
"I see." The Commander of the Noble District nodded and said.
After receiving the reply from the commander of the aristocratic district, the player closed his mouth, stood silently to the side, and continued to silence his vision in Yang Xiaoxiao's live broadcast room, observing the movements of Rahu's army at all times.
He is just a player who is responsible for conveying information, and the matter of commanding the army in battle is still left to the commander of the noble district.
He didn't understand anything about war, so naturally he wouldn't interfere and didn't dare to interfere.
Looking at the player who continued to lose focus of his pupils, the Commander of the Noble District pinched his eyebrows with a headache.
The commander of the noble district knew about such a thing as sending troops to fill the empty space cleared by the Rahu army.
But things can be so simple there!
I don't know whether the other party is intentional or not, the empty area cleared by Rahu is far away from the main position of the military headquarters in Versailles, and the soldiers of the military headquarters need to pass through one army after another to send out the soldiers of the military headquarters to resist that area.
It takes a lot of time to get through this army.
Moreover, once the soldiers are sent over, with this army blocking the view, the commander of the military headquarters of the city of Versailles will not be able to observe what kind of situation this army is facing, nor will he be able to give corresponding orders in time, which will cause great trouble for the commander of the military headquarters of the city of Versailles.
Therefore, the best way to perfectly fill that blank area is to coordinate the soldiers around that empty area, that is, to transfer the troops from other wealthy merchants, celebrities and nobles around that empty area.
But the problem is that, judging from the battle set up by the enemy army, it is clear that they want to climb the city wall from that empty area.
Troops assigned to the past will face both enemy shooters and enemy soldiers on the wall.
At the most intense point of a war, the number of casualties will naturally increase.
There is no doubt that whatever army fills in the void in the past will have to pay a heavy price, even the total annihilation of the entire army.
Your own army will risk at least heavy losses, or at most total annihilation, while other armies will only have to cheer on and direct the archers to shoot a few arrows as support.
No one wants to do this kind of work.
"Nos. 66, 67, 84, 85...... You go and garrison the empty areas cleared by the enemy, and the rest of the troops fill the gaps in the deployment of troops. The commander of the military headquarters of the aristocratic district shook his head helplessly, and decided to try to give the order first.
Maybe someone would really want to go?
However, things were destined to disappoint the commander of the military department.
His orders were transmitted to the commanders of the corresponding armies through the hero's ability to command, but of all the armies he ordered, not a single army acted according to his orders.
The army whose name is named by the commander of the military department is either the real master of the corresponding army or the henchmen of the real master of the corresponding army.
They also know the pros and cons of things.
Once the enemy is allowed to ascend the walls from an empty area, it is easy to capture the entire wall with their army of swordsmen as their main fighting force.
They also knew that someone had to go to the empty space to get to the top.
But why them?
Why should their armies take this risk, and not other armies?
Soldiers are money, and soldiers are the capital of their strength.
A nobleman, without soldiers, may be robbed of his family's belongings by that person, and even the title may not be able to continue to be kept.
A wealthy merchant, without soldiers, the caravan did not dare to be sent out to trade, and any person or a god-sent creature in the wild would be robbed, and someone in the shop would make trouble and could not deal with it in time.
A well-known person who is famous for his army, without the army in his hands, who knows from which pimple nest you jumped from?
They came to assist in the defense of the city in order to ensure their own rights and interests, and it is easy to say that the number of soldiers lost is small, but if they put all their fundamental strength into it because of assisting in the defense of the city, it is better to wait for the city of Versailles to be occupied and protect themselves by bleeding heavily.
Such scruples were in the minds of the commanders of the armies except the commanders of the city of Versailles.
And their scruples, the commander of the military headquarters of the city of Versailles also understood, so he was having a headache about this matter.
"Do as I say!" The commander of the military department thought for a moment and said, "On behalf of the city lord, I can promise that all the soldiers you lost in this battle will be compensated to you by the city of Versailles in equal amounts!" ”
As soon as the commanders of the army said this, the commanders of those armies, although they were slightly moved, still did not take real action on this purpose.
Anyone can write a bad check.
The commander of the military department who now stood on the walls of this aristocratic district was only one of the many junior heroes under the lord of Versailles who did not yet have a name.
His words don't work, and they don't speak for the city of Versailles.
It's like an ordinary clerk in a company saying:
On behalf of our company, I promise to you......
In this case, the credibility is not high.
These idiots!
The anger on the face of the military commander flashed.
He was angry, but he still had to make his tone more calm:
"I don't need one of you to be stationed somewhere, I've already sent the soldiers of my army over, you just need to support until the soldiers I sent over arrive, and the compensation I just said is still valid!"
The commanders of those armies finally agreed, directing their men to fill the voids.
However, at this time, under the city wall, Rahu in the darkness issued another order:
"Priest Army, Prepare ......"
