MTL - How To Wear a Goddess Statue-Chapter 109 Fortification and Siege

In an orderly formation, Eliuil was dressed in light armor and stood on a chariot drawn by two steed horses.

Luodas stayed by her side, also dressed as a warrior, with long hair hidden in a silver helmet, looking very neat.

The two raised their heads to look at the city wall. Compared with those large cities, the city defense layout of Senna City is not magnificent. It can be called simple, but it is very suitable for the terrain characteristics here.

The rumored slaves who started the rebellion were standing on the city wall, wearing the armor of the Solan army and holding weapons in their hands, but their standing was not deterrent at all, as if the commander did not I thought about making a good lineup.

The guard, who is used to raising the bar, raised his neck and squinted, looked at it for a moment, and laughed at the alarmist words of the princess in his heart.

It is estimated that it will not be long before they will lose their armor and discard their armor.

Oops.

When the people under the city looked up at the city wall, the half-way soldiers guarding the city were also watching them.

As half-way soldiers, these slaves really have no concept of combat. Facing a well-trained army, it is inevitable to feel uneasy.

"Is there really no problem? If not, we will surrender." A man muttered, "They have surrendered, they should not kill."

Someone echoed: "I think so too, there are so many people on the opposite side..."

Standing between the two companions who were cowardly before the battle, the woman with the slave mark engraved on her forehead endured and endured, and finally gave the two of them an elbow.

"What are you kidding, surrender? Don't forget how we killed the indifferent city lord before, do you think this can be revealed by surrendering? Or do you think those big men will Slaves as human beings?"

"It's useless to destroy your prestige before you start fighting. I didn't say that before, the opponent will definitely underestimate the enemy, let's take him by surprise!"

, slashed.

Being reprimanded by the leader, the two slaves looked at each other and bowed their heads.

At this time, one of the generals under the city wall received a signal from the princess and began to follow the procedure to persuade him to surrender.

This general has a loud voice and good eloquence. It is easy to make people think that "surrender may also have a way to survive", but the female leader immediately leaned out of the city wall and made a very insulting gesture towards the bottom. .

"Who are you fooling, they are all liars! If you want us to believe you, wait for the next reincarnation, there is no such thing!"

General: "…"

He was stunned.

The intelligence did not say that the leader on the opposite side was a woman, and the soldiers and soldiers in the city were a little surprised for a while, but the group of people who followed the princess had a calm face and felt that the group of people in Beidi was good Make a fuss.

Away from a distance, Eleuil looked at the expression of the female leader and reconfirmed that these slaves who started the rebellion must have their own support.

Still, the siege has to go ahead, or you'll never know what the other side is hiding.

Eleuil's expression was solemn, and her slender arm was slowly raised and waved downward.

After the army formation, the flag was waved vigorously, and the screams of killing were loud, and the soldiers rushed to the city wall under the cover of the arrow rain of the archers at the rear.

Some people fell, but the ladder with wooden wheels also came to the front with difficulty, and was placed under the city wall for climbing.

Although the space limits the performance, it is not very smooth, if it goes on like this, it will only take a while to climb the city wall, where is there any crisis.

If the elite troops are rushing in front now, they may not have the strength to fight.

The guard subconsciously looked at the slightly frowning princess, both content and dissatisfied.

Suddenly, shields were erected behind the city wall. It is not accurate to say that they are shields. Those large plates are like iron towers and stone tablets, protecting the people behind.

Guarded by shields, the slaves began to throw javelins.

The shields used by siege soldiers are basically made of wood, but even harder materials can hardly withstand the top-down impact of sharp and heavy javelins. It fell without resistance, and the soldiers under the corner also fell to the ground one after another, most of whom were strung together by javelins.

The guard opened his eyes wide and raised his head suddenly.

The loose stance I thought was the most suitable stance for this type of attack, as long as the opponent's weapon reserves were sufficient—but how could it be enough? They're just bluffing, doing a last-ditch effort, just stick with it—

"Retreat."

Eleuil's concise and powerful command sounded.

"Can't retreat! They just want to force us to retreat, so as to have a chance to breathe, as long as they run out of weapons..."

"It will only be us who suffer heavy losses like that." Eleuil said coldly, "Look carefully, what are those?"

It's a javelin, or it could be—

thing.

—A gladiatorial arena is being built in Senna City.

There is no shortage of things like this.

No need for the princess to say more.

Someone on the city wall was holding a javelin and gesturing towards this side, probably because he felt that he could not hit with his bare hands, and replaced it with a bow and arrow.

In this way, his upper body also sticks out of the shield, like a living target.

Eleuil was silent, drawing bows and arrows, and her movements were too fast to react, and it seemed that even the time for aiming was saved.

The arrow broke out.

The slave standing beside the female leader fell to the ground, and the shield was still standing, so that the people in the city could not see the situation behind.

But Luodus knew that this arrow must have hit the key.

I can't turn the tide of the battle, but judging from the man's position next to the leader, this may be the biggest gain today.

The siege on the first day ended in retreat.

———

"Besieged."

A general said helplessly.

Obviously, it is impossible for the isolated slave rebel army to consume the regular army. In the end, it can only be surrendered or trapped in the city, either.

Eleuil tapped the table with her knuckles and remained silent for a while.

Fire Attack, Tunnel, Intermittent Raid... All rejected.

The local generals may be able to wait, but if the problem is solved by siege, the princess and others will really be dragged here.

Luodus, as a bystander, held his chin and looked out the window thoughtfully, as if he was indifferent to the world.

Together with the generals in the room, they all murmured, what does it mean for the princess to discuss with the female officer, it seems that they even carry it on the battlefield?

Luodus seemed to feel his sight and glanced back lightly.

Several generals bowed their heads, only the guard looked back with the eyes of the bullfrog.

Eleuil: "Do you want to go back to rest first?"

Luodus shook his head and answered the question: "The sandstorm is coming soon."

The north is dry and windy, and the wind and sand are relatively larger in late summer and early autumn.

This is another major use of the leaf cap in addition to shading - wind protection.

Eleuil nodded after her words, suddenly realized something, and her eyes flashed.

Lotus took out a few thin leaves from somewhere, the kind of leaves the locals used to weave leaf caps His fingertips were indescribably vivid and moving.

Eleuil's eyes follow the fingertips unconsciously.

Luodus squeezed one arm of the grass figurine and shook it from side to side.

Eleuil took the little grass figurine, her eyelashes half-drooped in thought, then raised suddenly.

"I see, maybe it works."

Generals: "…"

To make up such a little thing on a serious occasion is really arrogant.

And what do you understand, Your Highness!

Overnight, the handicraft activities of the North Fortress were in full swing.

However, it does not require any technical content to make a humanoid thing, it looks like a person from a distance.

With such rough processing and assembly line operations, within a few days, objects that look like people will be produced continuously, and it doesn't even cost a lot of material resources - things like weeds and sand are available in the north.

On a dark and windy night in a certain moon, the late summer sandstorm arrived as scheduled.

"I'm so sleepy, when will I change my shift?"

On the city wall, a slave in soldier's armor yawned and complained to his companions.

Maybe yawns are really contagious, and another slave yawned: "Who knows, don't keep asking me, just stare down."

"Winds of wind and sand, those aristocratic lackeys won't come here in this weather. They just need to be around."

"What if?"

At this moment, the slave glanced down, his expression suddenly shocked.

"Look there - they're here!"

In the darkness of the night, in the windy sand with low visibility, chariots approached with figures.

The author has something to say:

False pampering: Luotas who weaves at the meeting.

Real arrogance: Look at the 2612 of the Luodas grass weaver.

The ancient Solan version of the grass man consumes arrows (?)

Little safflower it appeared!

It didn't disappear, I'm fine again.JPG
