Chapter 65: Boss, Is There Any Food to Sell?
Just when everyone on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief, they saw the military formation not far away move again. The infantry in the front row lined up in a neat line of skirmishers, and under the command of the military flag, slowly pressed in the direction of the city wall.
These guys aren't going to be tough, right, with these thousands of people, they dare to attack the capital of a province? Even if you are a soft persimmon, not everyone can swallow it.
Without an order from the Governor of Chasai, Baron Agath had already commanded all the armies near the city wall and drove the wall as soon as possible. No matter how effective the militia is, at least the number of people still crushes the opponent.
As if he had regained his confidence in an instant, Governor Chasai looked at the military formation in front of him with a calm expression, weighing whether it was better to strike first and give the other party a dismount first.
One hundred and fifty meters! This is the maximum range of bow and arrow kills. As for heavy attack weapons such as catapults, Jiashan Castle is not absent, this is a long-term peaceful and stable environment, and it has been a long time since the use of this type of weapon has been practiced. The devil knows if the fight will throw a stone on his head, and once a large killing weapon such as a catapult is used, it will basically declare that both sides are completely torn apart.
Governor Chasai decided that it would be better not to be so impulsive.
In fact, Governor Chasai's decision was wise. The military formation under the city stopped when it reached 150 meters. The follow-up team that followed in the rear soon followed, and built a position under the noses of the people in the city.
"Listen, people on the walls, we give you ten minutes to think about it, and if we don't open the gates by then to cooperate with our search, we will take the necessary action." The cavalry squad leader who had run twice under the city appeared in front of everyone for the third time.
As if to cooperate with the squad leader's shouting, the position constructed in the center of the military formation was lined up with real magic mortars. Huge mortar shells were held in the arms of the dwarves, ready to fill the huge muzzles at any time.
Threaten, naked threaten!
Governor Chasai's face became ugly, and today's posture seemed premeditated. What to do? Governor Chasai was thinking quickly in his mind about what to do next.
The army in front of you, don't look at the small number of people, only about 5,000 people. But the horror of the combat effectiveness displayed is estimated to be the only one seen in his life. The team that was put together on a makeshift basis would definitely not be able to withstand the opponent's full force.
And what they did on their side, everyone only knew it before, and they didn't put it on the surface. According to the relevant laws of the empire, in fact, his gang is already considered treason.
"Your Excellency, what should I do?"
As the number one confidant of the Governor of Chasai, Baron Agath urgently needs his own Governor to make a statement. After all, in the blink of an eye, five or six minutes have passed.
Just when the chief inspector Sai looked at him with fierce eyes, a mortar shell fired from outside the city fell from a barracks behind the city wall, and a huge shock wave instantly destroyed dozens of square meters of the camp.
"Bastard, who let you do it!" Before the people on the city wall could react, Lin He's group had already rushed into their mortar position. I saw a magic mortar cannon next to a dwarven gunner, and the dwarven captain was smashing a dwarven gunner.
Just now, perhaps because he was too tired to hold the shell and wanted to put his hands down, or because he had eaten too much in the morning and wanted to go to the toilet, the gunner made a foolish gesture to the muzzle of the cannonball, and then slipped the cannonball into the chamber of the cannon.
That's a cannon* shell worth fifty gold coins!
How many oats and how many chicken legs can be exchanged. Now I heard a sound when I hit the opposite side, and I don't know if I hurt anyone, and I don't know if I want to accompany someone later.
Thinking of this, the team leader became angry, and his attack became heavier and heavier. Anyway, these guys have rough skin and thick meat, no matter how hard they beat, it is estimated that it will not affect people's appetite after eating.
"What's going on?" Dwarf Rose stepped forward and dragged away the leader of the violent squad, and the victim shook his nosebleed head, straightened his helmet tilted to the side, and stood silently to the side to watch the excitement.
"Report to the sir, just now our department mistakenly fired a shell, and it's being processed!"
Just when the battalion directly under the logistics department was busy dealing with the incident of accidental attack, the party on the city wall was also frightened by this sudden incident. Is this a card that doesn't follow common sense or can't wait to make a move? Even if you want to fight, you have to talk about it first, don't you? What if we're just putting on a show and don't think about anything else.
"Your Excellency, what should I do?" A crowd gathered around the Inspector, waiting for the equally frightened Lord Chasai to come up with an idea. Time was pressing, and it hadn't been ten minutes before the shells were smashed. Ten minutes later, I don't know how many shells will fly.
Don't look at the 20-meter-high city wall of Jiashan Castle, but it was designed without considering shelling. Not to mention the two goblin airships that flew over from the sky at some point. This thing is flying around in mid-air, and it looks like it has bad intentions no matter how you look at it.
"Forget it, open the city gates and let them enter the city to search!"
Looking at the city gate that opened not far away, a group of people in Linhe are also you look at me, I look at you. I didn't know what the situation was for a while, but I was still desperate just now, so why did I open the city gate. Could it be that the shell just now blew up a place that shouldn't have been blown up, and people came here to claim compensation?
"Staff, go up and see what's going on!"
"Understood. My lord! ”
Ten minutes later, the soldiers of Wu Qianren's logistics battalion drove into Jiashan City. Although the Governor of Chasai had already left the city gate area with a vote of officials, he was very kind to leave Brigadier General Agath.
For this gang of hooligans who came into the city to find trouble, Baron Igate was also very careful to receive them. The requirements put forward by the directly subordinate battalion were also arranged very quickly.
"My lord, look, this is the largest grain trading market in our Jiashan City, and the granary of our province is also set up here!" Accompanying Lin He and his entourage to wander around the city, the entire battalion directly under them followed behind the two, not so much to search for the lost soldiers, but rather to show off their strength in an armed parade.
"Oh, go in and have a look!" I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Lin He took the lead in walking into the door of the grain trading market. I went directly to the counter of the nearest grain store.
The chubby boss knew Baron Agath, and when he saw this, he hurriedly greeted him personally. Especially to Lin He, who was next to the baron, he was even more polite. After all, even the young man who is carefully served by the Baron must have a great future.
"How did the boss sell the grain?"
