System: Build My Own Territory-Chapter 644 - 233: Facing the Enemy (10,000 Words)
Joao quickly turned around to look, only to see twenty or thirty people holding clay pots, running towards him.
Luoyang’s eyes lit up, and he quickly ordered, "Aim those ladders, smash them!"
The squad leader responded once, looking back at the dozens of guards behind him.
"Target the ladders, throw all the pine resin oil!"
Neat responses sounded.
"Yes!"
The squad leader’s eyes looked forward.
There, a soldier from the Three Great Estates wearing chain armor, was climbing towards the top of the city wall, using both hands and feet, with a shield in his left hand.
The chain armor on his body, coupled with the arrows embedded in the shield.
Almost blocking all damage!
With a strong force of his arms, he let out a shout, and the dozens of pounds heavy clay pot flew out of his hand.
Falling from above, it smashed heavily on the shield of the soldier in chain armor.
Clatter!
The already brittle clay pot instantly shattered.
The processed pine resin oil splashed open instantly.
On the ladder, the shield, the body of the soldier in chain armor.
And below, the soldiers of the Three Great Estates waiting to climb the ladders...
The flowing pine resin oil began to spread.
Not only the squad leader.
The other dozens of guards also threw out the clay pots in their hands.
Either smashing on the soldier on the ladder.
Or throwing them down, ultimately crashing into the soldiers below.
Listening to the continuous crisp sounds, the soldiers on the ladder seemed to have noticed something.
Looking at the dampness flowing on the chain armor, he moved closer to sniff.
The next second.
His eyes widened, shouting loudly, "It’s a fire attack, it’s a fire attack!"
However.
Just as his words fell.
A torch was thrown from above, spinning towards him!
The shock filled the soldier in chain armor’s heart.
He could no longer care about being at a height of five to six meters.
Directly exerted force with his legs and jumped downwards from the ladder.
Nevertheless.
Still too late.
The torch spun, tiny flames dripping down, falling on the round shield of the soldier in chain armor.
Buzz~
The pine resin oil on the round shield was instantly ignited!
The flames quickly spread in the direction of the flowing pine resin oil.
In just a few seconds.
The soldier falling down was wrapped in a layer of red-orange flames.
The soldier in chain armor crashed heavily onto the ground, disregarding the pain from the fall.
He frantically rolled on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames.
But his chain armor had already been soaked with pine resin oil, burning from the outside to the inside...
The shield and chain armor that once resisted arrows and rolling wood and stones, at this moment became his burning prison!
Not only the soldier in chain armor.
The ladders set up, soldiers on the ladders, and soldiers below pressing the ladders...
Soldiers splashed and stained with pine resin oil, all ignited by torches.
In the urgent sounds of ignition.
Underneath Frank Manor Castle, it seemed to turn into a sea of fire.
Hundreds of soldiers of the Three Great Estates struggled and ran amidst the flames.
But the stained pine resin oil couldn’t be extinguished so easily?
In just a few minutes.
One body after another fell to the ground, letting the flames burn on them.
The flames ignited the soldiers, also burning the ladders.
Thick smoke rose wave after wave below the city wall, spreading up to the night sky.
Among this, there was a strong burnt smell!
In the distant fields. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Watching the sea of fire, Banaby frowned.
This sea of fire alone killed or injured at least hundreds of their people.
Among them, not lacking the armored soldiers they trained.
Even though these soldiers and guards were unified by the Three Manor Lords, the loss was still huge!
His gaze turned to Theodore.
Before Banaby could speak, Theodore spoke first, "Barnaby Manor Lord, once you pull the bow, there is no turning back!"
"If we don’t capture Frank Manor today, what awaits us will be reckoning from Frank Manor!"
"With Janet’s character, who even killed her own grandfather and uncle..."
"Will she give us a way out?"
"Barnaby Manor Lord, Lord Will, we know better than anyone that this is our last chance!"
Banaby nodded knowingly, "Both of you, issue orders to your respective soldiers!"
"Continuing like this, not only won’t reduce the soldier casualties of each manor, but the Three Great Estates will be wiped out!"
Theodore and Will exchanged a glance.
As manor lords, naturally they had their own little schemes.
For instance, only sending out a small group of soldiers to charge and climb the ladders.
Other soldiers stood on the outskirts, only carrying out a feigned attack.
To reduce the casualty rate among the manor’s soldiers!
But given the current situation, they had no choice but to give the order for their soldiers to attack the city with full strength!
Under the orders of Barnaby, Theodore, and Will, the guards behind them charged towards the battlefield in front of them!
On the city wall.
Joao looked at the fiery sea below, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Despite the screams and wails below merging into one.
His expression remained cold as ice.
Seeing the ladders being burned and breaking in the middle, Joao felt a bit relieved.
