Chapter 214: Daniel's Attack (Part II)

Daniel is bluffing people with big words. If you want to extract other people's souls and check your thoughts, you have to be at least a necromancer of level 8 or above to barely do it. He is only a fifth-level necromancer, and there are ways to torture people's souls, but if he wants to obtain any accurate information, he has no way.

But the two captives didn't know anything about magic, and they took it seriously. If you are still searched for news under the burden, it is purely uncomfortable for yourself. In fact, Daniel didn't scare them, and the two scouts saw ten magicians surrounding him, and they were also terrified in their hearts.

At that moment, the two men informed Daniel of Nash's approach, and Daniel frowned, he was blocked by the castle, and if he wanted to go to the border, he had to climb over the mountain. One or two people can still take a shortcut, but more than 500 people, with their baggage, have to detour thousands of miles to find a less dangerous place.

"My lord, since these people are blocking the county lord. Let's just take this city so that the county lord's army can pass calmly. "It was Ge Yi who was talking on the side. He commanded the battle this time, and Daniel was only a support. Killed forty people on the other side, and only a few were injured on his side, which made Ge Yi's confidence swell. The other party is the regular army of the Qin Yin Empire, not some bandit bandits.

In fact, the forty scouts of the Qin Yin Empire were also very wronged, there had never been any army marching with a few carts of crossbow arrows, and the soldiers of Ge Yi didn't want to shoot arrows like money, and they didn't fight with these scouts at all. Ge Yi even dispatched only 200 people, relying on the advantage of weapons, he shot all those groups of scouts. If it's really hand-to-hand combat, with his pirates, it's good to be able to exchange two for one for the other.

Daniel was thinking more than Geryi, and he was thinking about whether attacking the Empire's army would cause any trouble for Saleen. Kill this group of scouts, he can turn around and leave, the other party can't get the handle, if he attacks the city, it is a completely different thing.

"My lord, are you worried about Holy Rock City?" Geyi himself is also a very smart person, otherwise he would not have grabbed the big tree of Salen and climbed it with all his heart.

"Yes, attacking an Imperial city is a big problem. ”

"My lord, this city originally belonged to Phoenix, and besides, I don't think Holy Rock City can control the nobles of this place anymore. Otherwise, Phoenix wouldn't have been in such big trouble. ”

"You know what. Daniel gave him a blank look. He now tied his future to Saleen, and didn't want to do anything irreparable.

Ge Yi was not afraid, and said directly to Daniel: "My lord, although I don't know what the nobles think, but among our pirates, if the captain can't protect his own people, no matter what the reason, he won't be able to do it for long. ”

"Huh?" said Daniel, who was surprised to hear the skinny pirate talk about the situation, using his own origins as an analogy, "What do you mean by that?"

"No matter what conflicts the county lord has with Shengyan City, she is a member of the emperor's own family. Now that Saint Rock City is doing this to its own family, the local nobles are like little pirates, and they will definitely have doubts in their hearts. Since Holy Rock City can do this to its own people, who will protect the interests of the local nobles?"

"Yes!" Daniel suddenly realized, he was born into a nobleman, and as soon as Geyi said this, he immediately understood.

When the Tangulas royal family sold him, a small nobleman, directly to the Holy See, he naturally would not continue to be loyal to the royal family. And on the way to escape, there were some nobles who had little friendship with him who helped him privately, which is the reason that Ge Yi said.

Today the royal family can betray itself because of the Holy See, and tomorrow it will be someone else.

"But the enemy is five thousand. We're only five hundred. "Daniel wasn't so arrogant that he thought he could be ten. There are also mages in the opposing army, although there are not as many as on your own side, but as long as there are mages, you can offset your advantage and then rely on the number of soldiers to win.

Daniel was someone who had seen the regular army, and knew that the combat effectiveness of the army was not comparable to that of these pirates. The greater the number of well-trained soldiers, the greater their combat effectiveness. Five thousand soldiers is a huge force in any place. Needless to say, the five hundred pirates, the barbarians have not been able to fulfill the battle order so far.

"My lord, this city has a magic tower, in the west of the city, we are in the east of the city, the control distance of the magic tower will not be so far, as long as we can enter the city, we will use the magic chariot, set fire, and burn down the local military camp. ”

Strandburg was not originally a militarized city, but it had many residents on weekdays. The soldiers stationed in the camp set up a barracks alone, and if the magic chariot rushed into the camp to release the fire magic, it would indeed be a very terrible thing. Even if there are mages in the barracks, there is nothing they can do.

With two magic chariots, Daniel and Frans can be worth a seventh-level magician.

"Well, that's a good point, but how to get into the city is a problem. ”

"My lord, if we kill this team of scouts, they will definitely go out of the city to check. The terrain is narrow, so we set up an ambush to kill the people who went out to check the city, change into their clothes, and wait for the magic chariot to wait a mile away, and when the men disguised as the opposing soldiers seize the city gates, they will rush into the city. ”

Ge Yi said that if the opponent has too few soldiers out of the city, it will be more difficult to capture the city gate. But in order to win wealth and nobility, Ge Yi can manage so much. When a pirate, who does not make money with his head.

Daniel didn't know what Ge Yi was thinking, but admired his bravery. Casting a stun spell to stun the two captives, Daniel and Frans began to prepare their own magic.

In the large camp west of the city, Rex's soldiers began to prepare for the siege. Rex also brought a chariot, but the distance was long, and the equipment on her chariot was placed in the Ring of the HRE and had to be assembled improvised. This four-wheeled chariot can be equipped with a small magic trebuchet, which is used to suppress opposing archers, and cannot destroy walls.

A large number of battle golems were activated and distributed among the low-level mages, and these battle golems were as powerful as skeletons without the command of a mage. It's just that the ability to resist blows is a little stronger. The main role of the puppet is to cover the soldiers, push heavy weapons in front of the city gates, and break down the gates.

If the enemy is determined to defend the city gate and block it, the puppets can also climb the wall first and consume the opponent's arrows.

Of course, if Rex had a giant war golem, it wouldn't have been so much trouble. You only need to let the heavy cavalry follow the war puppet, and when the puppet destroys the tower, the heavy cavalry can directly kill it.

The war puppets of Holy Rock City have almost been made, but they don't know how to send them to Garulan. Let's solve the problem of Lianyun City first.

Before the battle, the soldiers also had to sort out their weapons, and some officers' weapons even had to be blessed with magic in advance to achieve the strongest effect. The steel crossbow should be lubricated, and the horse should be fed some special feed, not too much, otherwise it will reduce the horse's physical strength. The blades of the armor should be checked one by one, and Qin Yin's armor also has a large number of leather rope embellished parts, and the leather rope will be worn, and if it is disconnected on the battlefield, it will be a big trouble. Before some important battles, officers would even issue new leather ropes for soldiers to reconnect the armor leaves.

If the string opener is used for a long time, it will wear out, and it will generally not affect the use, but any accidental break will damage the bowstring. Some soldiers will have steel claws on their gloves, and if the gates cannot be broken, the magic slings will smash holes in the walls, and the soldiers will have to climb with steel claws, and these steel claws will be wiped off the protective grease and polished before the siege.

With an army of tens of thousands of people, there will definitely be large trebuchets, but large trebuchets cannot be moved, and they need to be assembled within five miles of the city wall, which is also within the attack range of the enemy's trebuchets. The soldiers were now busy making makeshift wooden shields so that they would not be hit by the finest stones.

There are many types of trebuchets, one of which will project a large number of small stone balls, hundreds of them at a time. These small stone balls are not capable of destroying large buildings, but they are very lethal to infantry. No matter how strong a person is, his bones are broken and he can't fight.

Near the walls of the camp, hundreds of crossbowmen looked at the sky vigilantly, and if the enemy's flying puppets came at this time, they had to shoot down, otherwise the news of the preparation for the attack would be exposed.

Every soldier was busy, making some pre-war preparations. Although they were small things, they slowly focused the soldier's attention. This is a way to increase combat effectiveness, and there are similar rituals among mercenaries, but not as professional as the regular army.

For example, the five hundred soldiers east of Strandburg, if you let Rex judge it, are simply a rabble. Without the Skeleton Warhorse, Rex could use half of his strength to settle the battle in thirty minutes.

On the battlefield, it is not individual bravery that is compared, but the cooperation between soldiers. The personal force of the barbarians is good, placed on the battlefield, but they are no match for ordinary soldiers. This is also the reason for the decline of the barbarians, who simply cannot organize a strong army.

A blue light flew through the sky, and Rex was meditating in the tent, when suddenly she opened her eyes and said in some shock: "They ......"

"County Lord, what's wrong?" asked Nania.

"There's a battle at the eastern gate, and Daniel's bastard has attacked early!" Rex let out a foul mouth in surprise, but she immediately thought that her people must not have crossed the mountain yet, Daniel took the initiative to attack, and did not know the news of his own here.

Isn't this looking for death? 500 men went to attack a city where 5,000 people were stationed. It's pretty much the same when it comes down.

But Rex can't ignore it, those 500 people are all trained by Saleen, she must at least cooperate here, otherwise the 500 people may be wiped out.

"Someone!"

Immediately, a personal soldier approached, and Rex said with evil in his eyes, "Send the 9th and 10th Banner Regiments to attack Stranburg." ”
