Under the pressure of Otis, the attack team of more than 2,000 people was divided into two groups, 5 hundred-man teams continued to attack the place just now, and the other dozen hundred-man teams attacked a city wall in the south under the command of Otis's cronies. Otis himself left more than 300 people in his own camp to protect his own safety.

"My lord, the other party has launched another attack, this time the other party is attacking two places at the same time, the distance between the north and the south is nearly a kilometer, which is not conducive to the soldiers to concentrate their defense." Arthur said.

"Well, herald, prepare to use the oil of fire!" Lu Cheng didn't hide it at this time, and was ready to use his trump card to teach the robbers a lesson.

Fire oil is a product of alchemy, and the production of fire oil has not been stopped since the construction of the alchemy mill, in order to deal with the occurrence of incidents such as robbers attacking the city. Before the war, Lu Cheng had accumulated more than 30 sets of hot oil, and bought 20 sets from the exchange at a price of 20 gold per group, with a total of more than 50 sets of hot oil reserves. Lu Cheng ordered a batch of large iron pots from the blacksmith shop and put them every 100 meters on the city wall, and at this time, the heated oil was gathering momentum in the iron pot.

"In addition, the assault team of 50 adventurers continues to wait behind the north gate to eat the wave of bandits in the north if possible." Lu Cheng thought for a moment and then commanded.

"Okay, lord, the gang of robbers in the north is more than 100 meters north of the north gate, and my companions can attack at any time." Arthur replied that there were only 2 people standing in the watchtower because of the limited space, and there were several militiamen waiting next to the watchtower to deliver orders.

There are 3 gates on the north city wall at equal intervals, from north to south are the north gate, the north second gate and the north third gate, 5 bandits' hundred-man teams attacked in the north of the north gate, and the remaining dozen hundred-man teams launched an attack in the north near the north three gates, Lu Cheng's arrangement, the adventurer team as an elite attack force concentrated at the gate of the north second gate, before the robbers launched a strong attack when they were urgently transferred to the north third gate, just about to transfer back, the second wave of robbers attack followed, and it was the same place, The robbers had to be bled out.

Before the war, Lu Cheng urgently trained a group of militia, the camp can be put into the militia has 622, 400 people are arranged to organize defense on the city wall, 100 people are responsible for guarding the three city gates, the rest as a reserve, the strength is relatively scattered, but because of the excellent equipment, the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers is more than one step higher than that of the bandits, if the city wall is not so long, the troops are more concentrated, the robbers want to break through the defense is tantamount to a fool's dream.

The second wave of battle launched by the bandits started again, under the intimidation of Otis, the robbers attacked more fiercely, the militia and the adventurers who assisted in the defense on the city wall also began to suffer casualties, the bandits in the south obviously attacked more fiercely, and a section of the 100-meter-long city wall was even attacked by the bandits for a time, fortunately Mike and Selina arrived in time, and Lu Cheng was fortunate to watch the combat effectiveness of the high-level adventurers. Selina uses a double knife, which is different from Mike's wide-open and closed style of play, Selina is like a butterfly swimming next to the robbers, seizing the opportunity is a continuous attack, the robbers want to besiege her, but Selina is too agile, she will withdraw if she misses a blow, and she will not give a chance at all.

On the other hand, Mike is a desperate style of play, go up and put the sword storm, and then he can't come out of the bandit pile, which immediately attracted a lot of hatred, Lu Cheng saw this scene from a distance, and he was always worried that this kid wouldn't be able to hang up, but fortunately, the militia and other adventurers quickly eliminated the nearly 100 robbers who climbed the city wall, and Mike, who was almost exhausted, was carried out by his three friends, only a few minor injuries, and it was no big deal to rest and rest.

"Pour the oil!"

Under the city walls were thousands of robbers, and the opportunity could not be missed, so Lu Cheng decided to order the pouring of fire oil.

I saw that the big iron pot full of fire oil on the city wall was pushed down together with the shelf, and the robbers who were doused with the hot fire oil were burned to death without even having time to scream, and the robbers who were stuck to a little fire oil fell from the ladder with a miserable howl, and those who did not fall to death were burned and rolled on the ground, but they couldn't scream immediately, and saw several lit torches thrown from the city wall, and the fire oil that touched the torches burned instantly. The robbers, who didn't have time to dodge, were immediately burned into humanoid torches, rolling on the ground screaming miserably, and were motionless in just a few breaths, and they could no longer die.

This is not over, there are more than 20 units of fire oil in the iron pot, there are still many fire oil in clay pots on the city wall, the militia threw the fire oil cans one by one under the wall, the fire instantly expanded, the robbers on the city wall next to them saw that the situation was not good, they ran wildly, the robbers who had almost reached the top of the city wall jumped down from the ladder at the risk of being killed, the lucky ones escaped with their lives, the bad luck fell to death, and the unlucky ones were broken legs, but the broken legs may be more miserable, and a few cans of fire oil fell to the ground around them, The raging flames burned these unlucky eggs to slag in an instant.

Otis looked at the flaming city wall and stomped his feet fiercely: "A group of rice buckets!" This loss must be withdrawn and let them continue to attack! ”

"Lord Otis, the warriors are exhausted, and the losses from the fire attack just now are also relatively large, why don't you take a break and attack again?" The cronies next to Otis persuaded.

Otis turned his head and glared at his cronies fiercely: "What kind of loss is this casualty, and don't forget the explanation from above, if you don't get the things back, we all have to go to see them with our heads up!" ”

"That's what your lord said!" The cronies wiped their sweat, but the top gave a death order, they must recapture the secret letter within 10 days, otherwise their heads will have to move, and the relatives can't help but secretly scold the dead Andrew for being too cautious, what to do to separate the secret letter and the key, and it wasn't until the superiors came to ask about the secret letter that he and Otis didn't know that the dead Andrew still had such an important thing on him, and now he and Otis didn't even know what was in the secret letter and were given a death order.

What is important in MeSign?

However, Otis still didn't let the robbers continue to attack in the end, the bandit team that was frightened by the fire attack was already in turmoil, and then forced them to attack had to be a big deal, or they would flee or rebel, although the time was tight, but it was not necessary to get something today, there were still 5 days to calculate the time, and there was no hurry.

"Tell me to go down and continue to draw people from various strongholds, and we must gather 3,000 people for me! Which stronghold dares not to support, wait for me to go back and ask for his head! "Otis felt that the troops were still not enough, this camp was more difficult to deal with than expected, and the troops had to be increased again.

"My lord, will the defense of our stronghold be too small, if the enemy sneaks up, I mean if... The consequences are unimaginable! The cronies had to remind that in order to gather a team of 2,000 people, each stronghold has already drawn more than 5 percent of the troops, and to gather 3,000 people, the number of troops will be more than 7 percent, and the defensive strength of the stronghold will be seriously lacking.

"Humph! What do you know! Otis said disdainfully, "I've arranged for men to arrange sentry posts along the line, who do you think can sneak up on our stronghold from under our noses?" ”

The cronies thought about it and felt that what Otis said was also very reasonable, and the sentry posts arranged had been able to block all the passages that had penetrated from this territory to the rear.

"Report to your lordship, our casualties have been counted." A robber ran over and reported.

"Say!"

"Our side suffered 269 wounded, 105 of whom were seriously wounded and incapacitated. 237 people died, 36 missing, and a total of 542 casualties and missing,"

"If you don't have combat power, take it to the woods over there first." Otis waved his hand, "Call the other centurs." ”

"Yes!" The robber nodded sweatingly, he knew Otis very well about Otis's habits, Otis didn't say that he would send someone to take care of these wounded, that is, let them fend for themselves, and they were placed in the woods to prevent other robbers from seeing, so these incapacitated robbers had been sentenced to death, but he didn't dare to say more, his predecessor, his predecessor's predecessor and his predecessor before him, the grave grass was already several meters high.

Lu Cheng watched from afar as the robbers slowly withdrew their troops, and just now the adventurers on the north side took advantage of the robbers' retreat to launch a short surprise attack, eliminating more than a hundred robbers. After leaving hundreds of corpses under the walls, the robbers withdrew a few miles to the rear, seeing that they did not intend to continue the attack.

Lu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, the fire was still raging in front of the city wall, this fire attack consumed more than 20 groups of fire oil, the effect was quite good, according to the honor value obtained by the system prompt, it was speculated that a total of more than 200 robbers were eliminated, and from time to time a few honor points were added, it is estimated that they are robbers who hung up after being injured.

The loss of the territory was not small, with 76 militia casualties, 31 of whom died, and 15 adventurers killed or wounded, of which 3 junior adventurers were unfortunately killed.

"I will give a generous burial to the several adventurers who sacrificed, each victim will give a pension, the adventurer will give their family 10 gold coins for their sacrifice, and the militia victim will give 5 gold to the family, money cannot reduce the pain caused to their family, but I also hope to show a little bit of gratitude and try my best to help their family get through the difficulties." Lu Cheng said at the post-war meeting.

"My lord, I thank you on behalf of their family." Mike's mood was also a little low, although it was inevitable that there would be deaths and injuries when the adventurer did all the things he did to lick the blood from the knife, but after all, he had pulled the people, and he was still very guilty that someone would die so soon.

"Mike, you don't have to blame yourself, I know you've worked hard, and you can't stand on your feet when you come down from the battlefield." Lu Cheng comforted.

"Thank you, Lord for your relief, I know that I am not strong enough now, and I can only protect my friends by becoming stronger, so, Lord Lord, I would like to ask you for one thing." Mike said sincerely.

"Well, it's okay, as long as I can help, I'll definitely help you." Lu Cheng nodded.

"That's right, I want to buy one of your offshore transport ships to find my mentor in Midgar City after this battle is over, I was young and frivolous and thought I only learned a few superficial things, and now I find that I still have a long way to go, so I want to go back and apologize to my mentor and continue to learn martial arts." Mike said.

, this is the rhythm of running away? I'm waiting for you all my life, so I'm going to leave.
