Chapter 121: Returning in vain
One hundred and twenty-one chapters returned in vain
The silver moon, as always, sprinkled the silver brilliance on the world.
It was an August night, and the cool breeze took away the heat of the day, making it feel exceptionally refreshing.
It had been eight days since Baron Camorra's return, and it was also Lorlist's fifth night on his expedition to Kitano.
This is a small forest more than two hundred meters away from Kitano Town, and Lorist is leaning against a palm-thick mountain cedar tree, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, and a very long wooden pole is placed beside him.
Husky and Jim came to Lorlist's side, looking at Kitano in the distance, and then at the wooden pole that was set aside.
"My lord, can you really climb the city wall with this wooden pole?" asked Jim softly, finally holding back.
Loris nodded: "Yes, you will set off after I climb the city wall, are you ready?"
Hänsky patted the iron armor on his body: "Don't worry, my lord, we will not let you down." ”
"Why don't we act together? That would take care of you......," Jim asked.
"More people means easier to find, and when I go up the city wall and make a mess of it, the attention of the garrison will be on me, and then you won't have to lose anything when you go to the city......"
"Thank you, my lord......," Hawski said, choking up.
"Why are you still crying big men?" Loser ...... face," Lorist laughed.
"No, my lord, we are willing to do anything for you. Really, you've never looked down on us mercenaries, and you've always treated us fairly. If it were another lord, the first two days of trenching and siege would have driven us mercenaries to do it, and they would just stand in the back and watch the excitement......"
"I didn't think about it that much...... "Lorist shook his head, "I think you mercenaries are very experienced, and your combat power is much stronger than my newly formed family soldiers." So I was originally planning to throw you into the battlefield as a surprise soldier in a stalemate, and play a role in surprising victory. It's just that I didn't expect the garrison in Kitano Town to be so cunning and let my family soldiers suffer heavy losses, and now I can only rely on you to accompany me on adventures. ”
"My lord, this is our willingness, not only have you equipped us with double layers of iron armor, but you have also taken the lead yourself, it is our mercenary honor to be able to fight with you......" Hawsky said excitedly, Jim nodded beside him.
"Look at the heavenly ......, my lord," Pat reminded.
A large dark cloud is obscuring the bright moon like a disk, and the sky and the earth are darkening......
"Ready, Pat. Lorist lifted the end of the long wooden pole.
"Well" Pat also lifted the other end of the long wooden pole.
When the entire silver moon in the sky was covered in dark clouds, Lorist and Pat rushed out of the grove with long wooden poles one after the other, and they crossed Amano, crossed the avenue, and soon came to the bottom of the walls of Kitano Town.
Lorist did not stop or slow down his sprint, and seeing that the city wall was in front of him, he jumped up, put his toes on the façade of the wall, and with Pat's sprint, turned the long meter pole upward, like a cornice walking on the wall, and rushed to the top of the wall......
The garrison at the head of the city was chatting: "It's getting dark, who throws a few torches down to see the movement, be careful of being approached by them......"
"Pull it down, they lost so much yesterday, do they dare to sneak attack......"
"I'm afraid they won't give up, don't be lazy, it won't take much effort to throw a few torches......"
Lorist descended from the sky, and finally climbed the city wall as he wished, and in the flash of his sword, four or five garrisons fell to the ground with blood in their throats and eyes open in disbelief......
Raising the torch on the ground and circling it around his head three times, the mercenaries in the grove in the distance saw the signal of successful landing and rushed out of the woods with two ladders more than ten meters long, and ran quickly towards Kitano Town......
"Enemy attack! The enemy has landed in the city......" A sound like a gong broke the silence of the night.
The firelight was lit up from Kitano Town, and soon the lights were bright, and the crying of children who were awakened, the sound of gongs gathering, and the noise of knives and guns colliding were chaotic.
"There!" soon someone found Lorist at the head of the city.
"Whoosh...... Countless arrows flew towards Lorist from the darkness......
Lorist was short and swept three feet away from the ground, and the place where he used to be was covered by a rain of arrows. Fortunately, the rain of arrows was only for a while, because Lorist had already been killed by the rushing garrison.
"Kill!" four spears lunged at Lorist like poisonous snakes.
"Ah.......h
Another garrison was stabbed in the chest by Lorlist, and fell to the ground clutching his wounds. It's just that the garrison behind them swarmed up and kept stepping on him, and soon he was silent......
Lorist was an iron bridge, and four glowing spear heads grazed his body.
"Pong, pong", Lorist slashed with a sword, four spears were broken at the waist, the four garrisons only felt that the spear in their hands was shocked, and then it was light, and when they saw that the spear in their hands was only half of it, they couldn't help but be surprised, and before they could react, they saw a black shadow rise in front of them, and the sword light shone into their eyes, a black, and then there was a hole in the body, and the severe pain hit, and they didn't know anything.
"Kill!" was a silver-tier swordsman, his long sword slashing straight to Lorlist's chest. Lorist turned, and the long sword in his right hand came first, piercing into the silver swordsman's left eye......
"Formation, wave sprint!" a voice sounded in the distance.
"That's familiar....... Lorist stopped a sword and a spear, wiping the throats of the two garrisons.
"Kill ......" This will be eight spears, four on top and four on the bottom, sealing the space vacated by Lorlist.
Lorist retreated, retreated, and with a kick of his right foot, a spear flew up from the ground and pierced into the belly of one of the garrisons in front of him, who fell to the ground with the spear in his stomach and fell backwards screaming. Lorist leaped like a fish into the gap where the garrison had fallen......
One by one, the seven garrisons fell to the ground.
"Hit back and forth, pay attention to the distance between the two teams, and get closer......" The voice sounded again.
"That's Malte's voice, it's the captain of the Morin family's garrison......" Lorist remembered who the familiar voice was, and he became angry, hooked up several spears on the ground in a row, and threw them towards the place where the sound sounded, and the screams kept ringing out.
"Kill ......" another platoon of garrisons rushed over, and the garrisons on the other side of the city wall were also rushing towards this side......
A figure jumped up from under the walls, and Jim's voice rang out, "My lord, we're coming up......"
Then two more figures came up to the city.
"It's yours over there, and I'm in charge of it. Lorist thrust his sword into the scabbard behind his back, hooked up a spear on the ground and headed at the onrushing garrison, and the sound of slaughter erupted in the city......
"There's someone down there, they're coming up......." A panicked voice screamed, and finally a garrison spotted the mercenaries who were coming to the city.
"Don't panic, throw the canister of fire oil, the archers shoot down!" "Brothers, this is our homeland, and our ancestors fought here for two hundred years to get to where we have today's Kitano Town. This is our home. We have our parents, we have our children! For the sake of our relatives, we have fought against the enemy!"
"Kill!" "Fight".......
More garrisons swarmed up......
"Day, Lao Tzu has become a villain......" Lorist was so angry that he was so aggrieved that his subordinates were even more ruthless, and his spear pierced out a little cold star, stabbing the garrison to the ground one by one, and the blood flowed on the ground. Just killed one and pounced on a pair, killed two and rushed up to four, and it was impossible to kill.
A wounded garrison slowly crawled along the edge of the wall, and suddenly jumped up and grabbed Lorlist's left foot. The end of Lorlist's spear was withdrawn, and he slammed it into the head of the garrison, instantly shattering his skull and killing him. But even though the garrison was out of breath, he still clung to Lorist's left foot.
"Sun ......" Lorist kicked twice, but he couldn't shake off the corpse on his feet, and the red-eyed garrisons in front of him didn't care about their own life and death, they only wanted to stab Lorlist's body and rob him, as long as he made a hole in the enemy's body, he was willing to die. There were even garrisons who wanted to grab Lorlist's spear pierced into his body and give his companions a chance to avenge him. The garrisons that rushed up now preferred to die with Lorlist......
Lorist could only drag the corpse on his feet step by step, and Husky's voice came from behind him: "My lord, no, we can't stop ......"
Lorist stabbed two garrisons to death and looked back in a hurry, startled, originally he felt that there were more than a dozen mercenaries, and there were only four or five left, Jim was covered in blood and leaned against the city wall panting, and there was still a mercenary on Husky who was unconscious and dripping blood, and there were two mercenaries in front of him holding large shields to resist the garrison's attack......
"Why didn't you come up down there?" asked Lorlist.
"I can't get up, one of the long ladders is burned, and another is blocked by bows and arrows, and a few ......of them are dead," Jim gasped.
Lorist was about to speak, when suddenly his eyes lit up, but it was the silver moon in the sky that reappeared and sprinkled silver moonlight.
There were too many garrisons killed by Lorliste's side, and the corpses were piled up with corpses, and the blood was almost overflowing the instep of his feet. The garrisons who were rushing this way were also stunned for a moment, they did not expect to see such a tragic scene in the moonlight after the darkness disappeared, and the corpses of their companions were under their feet......
Lorist trampled on the arm of the corpse under his feet, broke free his left foot, pointed to the archers who were shooting arrows not far away, and said, "Hold on, I'll kill the archers over there, and pick up the people below to ......."
Before he finished speaking, Lorist suddenly felt creepy, and he couldn't care about anything to lie down, the wind swept overhead, and the three string sounds of "boom" reached his ears, followed by a loud "boom", and the sawtooth mouth of the city wall head beside Lorist shattered, and large and small gravels fell on Lorlist's body......
"Ah...... a huge crossbow arrow killed two birds with one stone, and the two mercenaries who were holding shields against the garrison side by side flew into the air, and fell over the city wall and under the city.
Three crossbow arrows, one swept over Lorlist's head, one shattered the jagged in the wall, and one killed two mercenaries. If it weren't for Lorlist's quick hiding, he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die.
"Kill!" the garrison on the mercenary's side doubled their morale and rushed over bravely.
Lorist leapt from the ground and rushed with his spear in swing, screaming and the garrison falling to the ground one after another......
After killing this group of garrisons, Lorist turned his head to look in the direction where the crossbow arrows were fired, but saw that a high platform was erected about eighty meters away from the city gate in Beiye Town, and three city guard crossbows were placed side by side on the high platform, and more than a dozen people were busy winding them at this moment......
"Retreat, quick!" shouted Lorlist.
Jim descended first, and Husky slid down the ladder with the wounded mercenary on his back.
"Shoot him......" Malt's voice rang out again.
"Whoosh..."
Lorist rolled over and hooked his foot to the long pole and planted the onion upside down until he was three feet off the ground. Pat rushed over and shielded Lorist with his shield, not forgetting to drag the long pole back with his other hand. After only a few dozen meters of running, the shield behind him sounded the thud of being shot by an arrow.
Thirteen of the mercenaries were killed, twenty-one wounded, and half of their combat strength was gone. Lorist gritted his teeth in hatred, attacked the city wall and was driven down, which was too frustrating. Unexpectedly, Kitano Town would build a high platform in the city to house the crossbow, which posed a huge threat to Lorist, forcing Lorist to retreat and successfully defending Kitano Town.
In the middle of the night, Lorist was so tired that he had to go to rest first.
......
Lorist attacked the head of Kitano Town for the second time, it was the early morning of the seventh day of the expedition, and there was a little mist, covering the movement of Lorist and Pat, and Lorist stood on the city wall again with a long wooden pole.
This time Lorist was a solo sword, and no one was asked to follow, only one Pat was under the city to pick up. Lorist's purpose was to go up and kill for a while, killing the garrisons of Kitano Town. A few more times, Lorist believed that they would soon collapse, and then the whole army would go out to take Kitano Town without much effort.
After a long slaughter on the city walls, Lorist was forced down by three crossbows from the city. However, Lorist was not disappointed, this time he killed and wounded one or two hundred garrisons, and he was unharmed, and another few victories were in sight.
However, there was a small incident on the city walls, and Lorist did not care. It was an old man with gray hair, who pounced, screaming for his son's life, with his bare hands. Lorist couldn't bear to do it, probably because the old man gave something to his baby son to eat in the morning, and it happened that Lorist went to the city, and the baby son died as a result of his devotion to his duty, and the old man rushed up desperately with tears in his eyes, and he had no weapon to open his mouth to bite, and Lorist had to slap the old man unconscious.
......
On the ninth day of the expedition, Lorist attacked the city again, but to the surprise of Pat under the city, Lorist came down as soon as he went to the city, stood under the city and scolded Beiye Town for being despicable and shameless, and let the defenseless old people, children, women and children go to the city to die.
Before Pat could react, he saw a lot of white-haired old people, as well as women and children, appearing on the city wall, scolding and crying at Lorist under the city wall, demanding that Lorist return their sons, husbands, fathers, etc.......
Lorist pulled Pat and fled.
Pat was puzzled: "My lord, these are rebellious relatives, why don't you take action against them?"
"Day, can you do it?" Lorist squinted at Pat, "Why don't I send you up and let you kill?" Rob to rob, sword to sword life and death without complaint. But if you do it to these old people, women, children, and children, I will have nightmares at night. Even if they are rebellious relatives, we must have our own bottom line, people, we can't become animals!"
"Then, how do you attack the city?"
"Go back and think about it, there will always be a way. ”
