73 Weird (Leader of the Alliance who rewarded "Miracle_Hughes")

"Kill!"

As soon as one of the Dorne warriors in the front row slipped into the deep, wide trench, he saw the riverman behind the wooden fence smash a barrel at him—

Cask?

The warrior of Dorn was stunned for a moment, then turned slightly to the side, and deftly dodged the barrel.

But the barrel was so unsturdy that it smashed to pieces on the ground, and the liquid inside splashed him.

He panicked for a moment, thinking it was some kind of poison, but after waiting for a while, he didn't notice any physical discomfort.

Instead, I smelled a strong aroma of wine.

At the same time, he also noticed that not only him, but others were also treated in the same way - barrel attacks.

But what can be the lethality?

The strange scene made the Dornas a little stunned.

Of course, they quickly came to their senses, and as they avoided the barrels smashed against them, they attacked the rudimentary fortifications in front of them.

The trench is a little deeper than the height of a normal person, the slope angle is not large, because it is an emergency repair, the protruding rocks can be seen everywhere on the slope, and it is not difficult to climb.

Just be careful to dodge the barrel - it's not a big deal to get hit.

Soon, Dorn warriors crawled out of the trench.

But at this time, they met with strong resistance.

Behind the wooden fence, stood a line of soldiers armed with spears, some of them river brows and dark-skinned savages, but at the sound of a unified order, they stabbed their spears one after another.

For a moment, it was as if a forest of steel was coming.

The Dorne warriors who react quickly either roll to dodge, or raise their shields to block, but there are also those who react slowly, or those who do not believe in evil and want to fight hard, and basically have a few more blood holes in their bodies.

The Dornes were not deterred by the dense array of guns, they were not savages, they were much more combative, dodging the spears while the enemy was collecting their guns, rushing up and climbing the wooden fence.

After a few rounds of spearing, few of the Dorn, who were familiar with the tricks of the Riverwanes, were stabbed, but several Dornish crossed the wooden fence and fell into the guns of the Riverwanes.

Of course, the sporadic Dornites simply could not wreak havoc on the formation of the Riverwanes.

The Dornés didn't give up, though.

They continued to attack, and as more and more Dornes climbed over the wooden fence, the Riverbenders' formation was already showing signs of instability.

But at this moment, the Hewan people actually took the initiative to choose to retreat, and gave up the first line of defense unusually decisively.

A knight of Dorne in a dark yellow cloak climbed over a fence to cut down a riverbend soldier, but he did not risk catching up with the orderly retreating rivermen.

Behind him, more and more Dorne warriors leaped over the wooden fence and completely occupied the defensive line.

"My lord, are we going to chase?"

The knight looked at the two similar fences in front of him, and at the half-built castle in the innermost part, shook his head, and said:

"Rest where you are, and you go tell Lord Urric about the situation here."

"Yes."

Urek, who was in the rear, was also a little confused when he heard the report from the front.

It was probably the weirdest battle he'd ever fought in his career.

It was weird from the start.

He didn't know if Sir Caesar on the other side didn't know how to mess around with military affairs, or if the enemy had some kind of conspiracy.

The latter was the most likely, Ulek felt.

After all, Sir Caesar was able to gain a foothold in a place like the Crimson Mountains, and he could also make tens of thousands of savages submit, so he didn't look like a fool at all.

"What about the barrels they toss? Find one and show it to me. Ulek decided to be cautious.

"Yes."

Soon, the soldier ran back with a barrel.

It was abandoned by the Riverbend behind the first line of defense, and before they could be thrown out, so it was intact.

Urric took a closer look and found that it was an ordinary oak barrel, but the iron hoops around the barrel had been deliberately damaged, so the whole barrel fell apart when it was struck.

He carefully uncorked the barrel again, and then he smelled the rich aroma of wine.

It's brandy.

Urric was of course impressed by the wine, and had planned to sell it with Sir Caesar.

But why did the other party throw all this wine out?

You can't kill people with this thing.

For technical reasons, the nobles of Westeros knew very little about high-strength spirits, let alone that they could ignite when the alcohol was high.

So, Urric couldn't associate wine with fire.

Is it toxic?

It was the only possibility Urrick could think of.

He was shocked, and hurriedly put down the barrel, and said to the soldier:

"Tell the soldiers not to touch the drink, to keep their mouths and noses closed, and not to let it get into their bodies."

"Yes."

Later, Ulek let the vanguard rest at the first line of defense, and replaced it with a second group of 300 soldiers to attack the second line of defense of the Riverwaners.

The offensive and defensive battles of the second line of defense are good, and they are almost a copy of the offensive and defensive battles of the first line of defense.

The only threat to the inexplicable barrels, the trenches dug in a hurry, was the wooden fence and the gun array behind it, but because the line was too long and there were not enough people in the river, it was easy for the Dorns to find a gap and turn over.

However, this time it was the same, as more and more Dornites climbed over the fence, and the Riverbends retreated when they saw that the situation was not right.

The Dornés did not rush into pursuit, but methodically captured the second line of defense before continuing to attack the third.

It's still the same script.

However, with previous experience, this time the Dornians captured the third line of defense without even paying many casualties.

At this time, in front of them, there is only the last line of defense-

The unfinished castle is gone.

At this time, even the most cautious warriors of Dorn will inevitably become proud at this time.

"Haha, when did the Riverbend people become so timid? Don't even dare to go head-to-head? ”

"yes. However, the queue is quite neat. ”

"Especially neat when retreating! Hahaha......"

The battlefield was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and the warriors of Dorne talked and laughed lightly, as if they were on an outing.

Ulrick was still frowning, and he personally went to the last line of defense, taking a look at the half-finished castle.

Compared to the previous three shoddy wooden fences, the walls of this castle are decent, the outer walls are very smooth, there are almost no footholds, it is difficult to climb without the help of tools, and there are two layers inside and outside, it is impossible to forcibly destroy it without large siege equipment.

But unfortunately, this wall has not yet been built, it is only a dozen feet high, and it is not difficult to force it.

If the Riverbend people inside were still the same cowardice as they had just been, Urric would even think he could have dinner in this unfinished castle.

So, he decided to test it first.

"Knight Aris, you take three hundred men and take this so-called castle for me!"

"Yes, sir!"
