1051. A rain that waits for it

Quartermaster Louis. Fitch has been very moisturized lately.

The successive victories continued to increase the fortune on the books, and gave him a new hope for this war.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with the merit exchange system set by Surdak, he felt that when he returned to Bena City after the victory of the Ganbu Plane War, not only would Surdak be able to bring back a 20,000-strong elite heavy infantry regiment, but also the 100,000 magic crystals he had brought from the quartermaster department could be completely brought back, and his small office might be able to change to a larger one.

From the beginning of Mukuso, the hoplite legions have been making a profit.

Although the previous wars in the southern part of the Ganbu plane also continued to make profits, but the profits from those wars were all allocated to his name by Surdak in the name of self-raising war supplies and self-raising weapons and equipment, including more than 100 sets of magic pattern structures and 3,000 excellent war horses. Fitch had nothing to say.

However, after the portal from Mukuso City was connected, the supply of supplies to the Legion was restored on the part of the Military Headquarters, and the wealth gained from the war was accumulated on the Legion's books.

Every time you fight, you can get a large amount of magic crystals......

However, this good thing seems to have lasted until the town of Samp, because Surdak, in order to avoid heavy casualties among the hoplite regiments, ordered the hoplite soldiers to hold in front of the twenty catapults and form a wall of three shields to protect the position.

Quartermaster Louis. Fitch held the parchment ledger every day, and began to have a headache with the huge amount of money spent every day.

The high system of pensions and merit rewards would rapidly reduce the newly accumulated wealth of the legions during this stalemate phase of the war......

And Surdak didn't know where to buy a large number of flints and powder kegs, the catapults had never been withdrawn since they were pushed to the battlefield, and every day the craftsmen of these catapults were divided into three shifts and threw flint at the town of Samp day and night.

In just five days, twenty catapults have thrown more than 50,000 flints at Samp Town, which is all money.

This is simply taking a box of silver coins and smashing the demonic minions and the Flame Gog at the head of the city to death.

The soldiers of the heavy infantry regiment formed a shield wall, guarding around the twenty catapults, and did not take the initiative to attack at all.

Commander Surdak's way of fighting is a reinterpretation of the heavian infantry regiment, which has always been regarded as cannon fodder, and can play the greatest value in siege warfare.

Louis Fitch didn't know where the flint came from, but since there were mages in the legion, he was not allowed to question it, and if he didn't know that a certain mage was involved, then he would have offended the entire wizard circle.

Louis. Fitch had to pay seven silver coins for each flint, much to his distress.

In fact, as a veteran quartermaster, Louis . Fitch knew very well that even if there was a war on the territory of the province of Bena, it would be difficult to buy a flint with a flint wrapped in oil and hemp rope for seven silver coins.

For businessmen, this is a lucrative business.

Because the cost of such strategic goods is not its own value, but the high cost of transportation.

All in all, Luigfitch had to pay five hundred magic crystals for these five days......

……

In fact, the walls of Samp Town have been smashed into ruins by twenty catapults in the past five days, and the walls of Samp Town are full of round flints.

The demon minions and the Flame Gog didn't know where they were safe, and as the walls continued to crumble and crumble, the barrier in Samp Town was completely lifted.

Even so, Surdak did not launch a general assault on the town of Samp.

The soldiers wounded during the siege on the first day had all been healed by the Holy Light Technique, but Surdak was still waiting.

He even rode on a blue-scaled horse, and took the two young ladies Samira and Thea, and ran all the way north along the Norma River for a whole day, supposedly to see the clouds on the other side of the snowy mountains, but the soldiers of the heavy infantry regiment preferred to believe that he was taking the opportunity to go on a date with the beautiful half-elf Miss Samira and Miss Thea.

In this legion of the strongest, Samira was worshipped as a goddess by all the infantry warriors for her extraordinary archery skills.

Of course, there are many warriors who follow Thea, after all, Thea's spa treatment has treated many injured warriors, and those warriors are her supporters.

In fact, Surdak has been delaying the date of the siege site in order to wait for the best opportunity to attack the city.

Waiting for one more day would be an extra hundred magic crystals for him, which would definitely be a lot of money for Vol Village.

……

Having to carry flint for days on end, Aphrodite was simply annoyed.

On the sixth day, however, the effort paid off, and Surdak rode Aphrodite with Samira and Thea across the vast grasslands.

They made their way north, up the beautiful Norma River.

All the way to the bottom of Pamela Falls, everyone had a lunch prepared by Surdak by the clear pool, and Thea even went to the bottom of the falls to catch a few delicious red ridge bass.

After Surdak carefully roasted it over a charcoal fire, everyone had a happy meal, and then accompanied Surdak to see the white clouds piled up like marshmallows on the snowy mountains in the north for a while......

"Duck, when are you going to attack Samp Town?" Samira's slightly hoarse voice always reminded Surdak of a movie star he liked in his previous life, although they looked different, but looking at the clouds in the sky, their eyes seemed to be shining with the same look.

"yes, a lot of people have been asking me lately." Thea also leaned out of the clear pool water and asked curiously.

Her clear voice couldn't even hide the rumbling of the waterfall.

"It's coming soon, it may be tomorrow, or it may be the day after tomorrow, in fact, I'm waiting for that cloud ......"

Surdak pointed to the north very casually and said.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he brought the green scaled horses grazing by the river and prepared to return to the camp.

Aphrodite didn't want to ride anymore, and a six-pointed star-shaped magic pattern circle appeared under her feet, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye when she entered the Void Gate.

Thea pointed to the clear Norma River and had to swim back......

Surdak and Samira had no choice but to return to the military camp on the shores of Lake Belanoma.

……

On the sixth night of the catapult siege, Lake Belanoma received a heavy rain, which continued until the next morning.

Archmage Harper, who was in the camp tent, breathed a sigh of relief.

It was the first time in his life that he had predicted the weather, and although it was a day later than expected, the rain had finally arrived.

……

The hoplites originally thought that in this kind of ghost weather, everyone wore rain capes and stood next to the catapult to form a shield wall, and the rainy day should not be too hard.

Unexpectedly, Surdak officially gave the order for a general attack just after breakfast.

In addition to the 1,500 heavy cavalry remaining in the barracks, 25,000 heavy infantry soldiers and 1,000 archers all had to brave the rain to participate in this siege battle.

The infantry soldiers braved the pouring rain and marched in formation towards the town of Samp, and they could barely see far away.

There are rain curtains everywhere in the world, wearing long leather boots on the feet, wearing bulky full-covered armor, being drenched by the rain, it is indispensable to maintain the leather boots and armor, the leather boots are soaked in the rain, and the armor will become hard after a long time, and the armor will rust after a long time soaked in the rain......

The phalanx of the hoplite regiment rushed all the way to the ruins of the walls of Samp Town, only to encounter a few stubborn hellhounds.

A group of cavemen soaked in puddles, their legs were very thin, their bodies were very heavy, their feet were stuck in the mud and they couldn't pull them out, the cavemen in the rain were like a swarm of worms, they didn't even need a shield warrior to stand in front of them, and the spearmen with Paglio's spears stabbed one to death, and then another, and soon the walls were filled with demonic blood diluted by the rain.

The blood was lavender.

The flaming Gogs who emerged from the ruins of the city wall, doused by the rain like chickens in soup, covered in fine fluff clinging to their bodies, staring at their huge eyes, beaten by the pouring rain, could barely stand up straight, and small fireballs erupted from their hands.

'Puff puff'

The rain fell, and countless fireballs were extinguished.

The hoplite soldiers who fought the hellhounds with their tower shields let out a heartfelt cry, and the excitement that welled up in their hearts turned into irrepressible courage, and they strode towards the ruins of the city wall.

The cowardly Gog began to scream and flee into the town.

The only fighting force on the battlefield of the ruins of the city wall is these greedy and cunning hellhounds, they can't stop the footsteps of the hoplite soldiers, and a group of demonic minions are also behind the ruins of the city walls, and they have turned around and fled into the town of Samp with these hellhounds.

The hoplite soldiers braved the pouring rain on their heads and strode through the ruins of the city walls into the town of Samp.

Just on the edge of town, a group of hoplite soldiers suddenly collapsed silently in a pool of blood.

Some transparent silhouettes of human figures appeared in the rain, and they hid in the corners of the houses with each kill, and the infantry squadron leader behind them hurriedly blew the whistle.

Samira was dressed in black leather armor and jumped several times in quick succession.

In the rain, she wore no rain cloak, no hood to cover her face, and a black face scarf almost stuck to her face.

The Heavenly Strike Bow continued to send out the power of thunder and lightning, and burrowed into the ground along with the rain.

A series of arrows with wind whirls were shot out by Samira, and she shot six of them in an instant, with only transparent outlines in the rain.

She hunts Shadow Demons everywhere on the battlefield, as Surdak is very interested in them.

A group of shadow demons couldn't hide in the rain, and they couldn't stop the footsteps of the heavy infantry regiment at all, and it only took half a day for the heavy infantry soldiers to occupy most of Samp Town.
