"Dark, are you going to call back the Constructed Swordsmen?" Archmage Harper stood in the barracks and asked Surdak.

The town of Samp was clearly more difficult to attack than any of the previous towns, and since the Luther Legion's most elite Constructed Swordsmen were on the Sayroman Plateau, there was no reason to abandon it.

Surdak hesitated for a moment before he said:

"Not for the time being, let the heavy infantry regiment try first!"

He brought twenty catapults with him this time, which were siege weapons, and with black powder kegs and flint, they might not need to be supported by the Swordsmen.

Archmage Harper nodded, put away the magic engram in his hand, and re-held a short magic stick in his hand, and said, "Okay, if there is anything you need my cooperation, just come to me." ”

Surdak hurriedly and politely saluted Archmage Harper, and said:

"Thank you for your support."

Archmage Harper turned and walked out of the barracks tent......

……

The hoplite regiment set up camp on the western shore of Lake Belanomah, five kilometers from the town of Samp.

Not only was it easy to get water, but Surdak was also going to make some sheepskin rafts, and wanted the soldiers of the Heavy Infantry Regiment to sneak down on the southern shore of Lake Belanoma, which was also the northern pier of Samp Town, and although there were also high walls, there were no demonic servants guarding it.

The merchant groups also camped on the north side of the barracks.

Due to this deep penetration into the enemy battlefield, in order to be able to get the protection of the heavy infantry legion, the merchant camp was almost next to the heavy infantry battalion.

Before the war, mobile taverns, triangular tents where you could eat cookies and drink milk tea were all closed, and only stalls selling daggers, leather goods, armor pieces and other supplies were set up.

At this time, no one dared to add a block to Surdak's heart.

An invisible pressure not only enveloped the barracks, but even the merchant group felt a little breathless.

They even regretted it a little, if they knew that the situation here was so bad, they should have stayed in the town of Rees for an extra week before setting off, and then the winner would probably be decided.

Now, just looking at the scout teams constantly being sent out in the barracks, and hearing that the adventure group has been attacked outside the city one after another, I know that the cleanup of low-level demons outside the city of Samp Town is not going so smoothly, and the counterattacks made by the demons are also very sharp.

This time, those hellhounds seemed to have finally grown a little brain, and several ambushes caught those adventurers a little off guard.

The barracks scout team was also in some trouble, and Surdak had to double the number of scout squads that were out on patrol, and there were mages in the sky.

The responsibility of the scout team is to sort out the barren meadows outside Samp Town, so as not to have any invisible holes to connect the town, and if a hell demon army is suddenly killed during the siege, and then cooperate with the demons in Samp Town, the heavy infantry legion will be dumplings...... That's the real trouble.

Surdak stood on the meadow by the lake and happened to see the base of a row of catapults in the meadow by the lake.

The craftsmen of the Heavy Infantry Regiment who were responsible for assembling the catapults had begun to assemble the unusually bulky catapults, which were powerful with flint and black powder kegs.

The huge wheel frame bases of these catapults were pulled all the way by the horses.

Due to the bulkiness of the catapult, and for fear of damaging the magical parts due to the bumps in the road, only the huge throwing arm was still mounted on the catapult, and the rest of the parts had been largely dismantled and pulled to this side by the four-wheeled carriage.

In order to transport the twenty catapults to the town of Samp, Surdak threw in one hundred and twenty Gubolai horses.

Before attacking Samp Town, the craftsmen in the catapult battalion quickly assembled the catapult, which was also a big hole card in Surdak's hand, and there was no black powder keg.

A catapult has been assembled and is being test-fired on the grass side.

Surdak thought of John, a catapult craftsman who had fled with him after the defeat at the Battle of Moyunling in Handanar County, Warsaw, and he didn't know how this guy was doing.

In the afternoon, Surdak summoned the seventeen infantry commanders of the Heavy Infantry Regiment for a battle meeting in the town of Samp in the barracks tent

The infantry commanders all had experience in the siege of Hatangada, and this combat meeting was not too serious, and some of the regiment commanders also wanted to build a few improvised siege ladder trucks temporarily, but there was no forest near here, and the wooden planks carried in the barracks were very limited.

But ladders still need to be built, and a single gate alone cannot storm Samp Town.

Surdak glanced up at the bearded Edgar who was sitting at the front, and said, "Edgar, you are responsible for making a few sheepskin rafts this time, Ned, you are in charge of modifying the ladder truck, and I will figure out the wood." ”

Ned. Mosby hurriedly replied, "Yes!" ”

The bearded Edgar took the initiative to stand up and said to Surdak: "Commander Surdak, we don't need to make sheepskin rafts this time, I saw some boats moored on the dock north of Samp Town, and I will take some people to swim over the lake at night and steal those fishing boats back." ”

It's almost five kilometers from the town of Samp, and it's just a very thin line on the other side of the lake, and I don't know how the bearded Edgar found out that there were fishing boats there.

However, it is clear that fishing boats are a little more reliable than sheepskin rafts, and the fighters in the hoplite regiment are basically members of the Resistance Army, who live in the dense forests south of the Gamp Plane all year round, and can operate boats.

As soon as Surdak walked out of the barracks tent after the battle meeting, he saw six scout squad fighters hurrying over with stretchers.

Surdak hurriedly shouted out to Thea and hurried up to meet him.

Surdak rushed over to find that the injured person was actually a swordsman from the adventure group, he was lying on a stretcher, covered in blood, and his throat was cut with a knife, but he should have undergone hydrotherapy and wrapped in a hemostatic bandage, and he was carried here and not dead.

A water mage ran out of breath, tears made all the makeup cry, not ugly, but not a beauty, there constantly to perform hydrotherapy on the swordsman.

Surdak didn't expect that there were water magicians in this adventure group, and it seemed that the scale of this adventure group was not small.

"Lord Commander, please save our regimental commander!" The sorceress rushed forward, grabbed Surdak's arm tightly, and begged.

Surdak broke free a little, but didn't break free.

I thought: Do you want me to save me, or do you not want me to save me?

After the sorceress finished speaking, she also pulled out a wooden box from her magic waist bag and smashed it on the ground with a 'bang'.

It was littered with hellhound heads, and it looked pretty good, apparently someone had to pay for it if someone instructed them to treat it.

The few people carrying the stretcher were the scout squad fighters in the barracks, Surdak held up a ball of holy light and looked at them with his head, wondering how they carried people to the barracks, if everyone on the merchant group and the adventurous group was injured and ran over to ask for treatment, then the commander would simply change careers and become a healer.

The captain of the scout team understood what Surdak meant at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward first, explaining quickly:

"Lord Commander, we were surrounded by a group of hellhounds and demon minions three kilometers southeast of Samp Town, at the beginning we still had a bit of an advantage, and we thought about cutting off the heads of hellhounds and bringing them back, but later there were demon minions among them who might have worn invisibility cloaks and held two daggers, and we couldn't see them at all, stabbing several of us in a row!"

"We fought and retreated with our wounded companions, and then we met their adventure party, the leader of the adventure group led people to rescue us, but the invisible demon cut his throat, please...... Save him! ”

Surdak wiped his nose and said lightly:

"Carry him in......"

At this time, the wounded soldiers of the scout team limped back from outside the camp......

"Let them come in too." Surdak said as he stood at the door of the barracks tent.

The process of treatment is not so complicated.

The Holy Light Technique and the Divine Blessing Body were blessed, and a layer of oil quickly formed on the gap in the swordsman's throat, and the broken blood vessels also stopped the bleeding, although the swordsman's face was a little pale, but it was no longer a major problem, but it was necessary to cultivate for a week.

When the group left the camp, Surdak called out the leader of the scout team to the camp tent and said:

"Tell me what happened to you, it's not a wound that hellhounds and crypt people can inflict."

The scout captain trembled and said to Surdak, "We don't know, that guy can only flash out at the moment of killing, and then disappear with a 'whoosh', and you can't find ...... at all."

The armor of the hoplite regiment had neck guards, and no one had their throats cut, but several had a few bloody holes in their bodies.

The swordsman leader of the adventure group was wearing a leather armor, although the leather breastplate was a magic pattern structure, but the armor piece on the neck was accidentally cut throat......

"Alright, got it!"

Surdak waved at the scout captain and let him out.

Then he instructed Edgar, who was standing aside, "Commander Edgar, please go and inform the rest of the scout team, and let them be careful when they go out on patrol, so as not to put their lives in it because of a few hellhound heads."

"Yes, Commander."

The bearded Edgar hurriedly walked out of the tent.

Samira also followed the bearded Edgar to the outside of the tent, but did not go far, and stood guard at the door of the tent.

Inside the tent, Surdak opened the curtains in the treatment area and asked Aphrodite, who was standing inside:

"Aphrodite, do you think that assassin could be a demonic servant of the ranks?"

"How can it be a demon servant, even if the hellhound grows three heads, they can't have invisibility, that should be the Shadow Demon, haven't you seen it once in the magic tower of Mukuso City?" Aphrodite sat on the couch and said to Surdak with a smile.

“……”

Surdak didn't speak.

At that time, he only saw a shadow demon head in the storage room where the space was shattered, and it was very impressive to him.

He didn't expect that the scout team would encounter a shadow demon in the wild, who was proficient in assassination.

"Will they be able to run back alive when they meet the Shadow Fiend?" Surdak asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Don't think of them as a bunch of all-powerful assassins, they're just mage killers, as long as they know how to deal with them, they don't have much to do other than be good at voyeurism."

Aphrodite tucked her long, fluffy hair and looked up at Surdak.

Those purple eyes were filled with the words 'Come and praise me, and I'll tell you the answer to this question......

Faced with a succubus with such an expression, Surdak also looked helpless, as if he had really been away from home for too long.
