A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 106. Chapter 106

The third day of the Tozes guard battle.

The war has entered a white-hot state, and the sound of fighting and roaring on the wall never ceases at dawn.

The pirates have obviously noticed that the time has been delayed for too long, and if it is delayed, I am afraid that there will be variables. The pirate leader Basha has already made a ruthless gesture, and must swallow the part of Tozes City to his lips.

Therefore, before today’s siege, he severely reprimanded all the pirates, and then stopped saving his strength, allowing all tens of thousands of pirates to attack.

On this day, the fierceness and cruelty of the pirates is undoubtedly revealed.

Some people can even rush up to the boiling water, even if they are burnt to the ground, they can climb up the wall savagely and chop people over.

The person who was lit on fire also rushed up directly, hugged the opponent, and died together with the opponent.

As soon as the pirate’s ferocity broke out, it immediately suppressed the aura of the defending party.

After all, the slaves who helped defend the city were not regular soldiers.

As soon as they saw the pirate rushing up with a grim look, many people began to shake their hands and feet and became unstable.

The soldiers who defended the city were almost out of breath by the ferocious pirates.

The casualties began to expand.

A corpse was dragged down from the city wall.

One by one the wounded were carried down from the city wall.

The original blue-gray city wall is now stained with blood, and it is covered with blood stains everywhere, dyed on the blue bricks, and withered into black and red.

At a glance, the wall covered with black and red blood stains looked strange and terrifying.

This tragic situation caused many slaves who were not able to bear the mental capacity to begin to fear. They began to shrink back, and they were unwilling to persist in resisting, and even a few slaves had secretly escaped from the city wall.

As soon as they flinched, the pirates were forced to come in even more fiercely, with more casualties.

The more casualties, it is even more frightening.

This created a vicious circle. The line of defense on the city wall began to appear loopholes, and then the points of rout, more and more, bigger and bigger.

More and more pirates began to climb the wall, and their momentum increased greatly.

The soldiers of Tozes and the slaves who stood by were still gritting their teeth and resisting.

They have no retreat.

The citizens of Tozes, their relatives and friends are all behind them.

Therefore, they are still holding on.

However, the arrows were almost exhausted, and the blades of the overworn spears and swords gradually began to become dull and curled.

The wear and tear of weapons is much more than imagined, much faster, and there is no time to replace them.

The wood is almost exhausted, the boiling water is too late to boil, and there is not much oil left.

The situation of the battle gradually became critical.

At this moment, there was a bang, a loud noise, and a huge stone whizzed out and hit the city wall heavily.

With a click, the green bricks shattered and a gap was broken in a corner of the city wall.

In an instant, several pirates rushed in from that gap.

Seton was shocked when he saw this scene on the beacon of the city wall in the distance.

Just as he was about to command people to block it, before he could speak, a sturdy figure rushed up, slashing the pirates who had turned up.

The tall body of the mature slave who led the team of slave gladiators was tightly blocked in the gap, one person was the one who turned away, and one knife smashed the upturned pirates.

While he was plugging in the gap, a dozen slaves rushed up and lifted the stone and plank to plug the gap.

Seth just breathed a sigh of relief, when a few more boulders flew in the air.

The rumbling sound sounded, they hit the wall one after another, and in an instant they smashed a few huge gaps on the wall.

Countless pirates turned up the gap and rushed up the city wall, cutting down the slaves who wanted to plug the gap to the ground, and guarding the gap so that the companions behind them could turn up.

At this moment, it was like a flood that burst a bank, and waves of pirates surged from the gap.

The gap kept widening, the flood became more and more raging, and the soldiers near the gap were oppressed and retreated.

Like a festering wound, the decayed place rapidly expanded, eroding this city wall.

At the same time, on the coast outside the city wall, which belonged to the outer city, the three huge trebuchets that the pirates spent two days on were still throwing stones at the city wall.

Time after time, it slammed into the corner or on the wall, and countless wall pits and cracks began to appear on the wall.

Seeing more and more cracks in the city wall, countless pirates poured in from the gap.

It’s like a flood from a levee full of loopholes. I’m afraid it won’t be long before the flood will smash the entire levee——

At this moment when Seth was distraught, suddenly, a figure in silver armor rushed into a gap.

The long sword was swung.

In one fell swoop, a pirate was cut in half from the neck to the waist.

The body that had been split in half fell to the ground, and the internal organs fell to the ground in bits and pieces.

The terrible picture caused the fierce pirates to pause for a moment, raised their heads, and looked at the person who rushed over.

Her long, pure golden hair was tied into a bunch behind her, hanging down on the silver-white armor.

The one-eyed knight is holding a long sword, looks awe-inspiring, and looks sharply forward like a blade.

A one-second pause.

He killed the pirates dozens of times his own.

Wherever he went, there was a bloody storm, and the long sword cut in the air were all traces of blood splattering.

The knight of the scorching sun, his bravery is praised by people all over the world.

Here, no one is his enemy.

It was just a moment’s work. Under the awe of the shocked soldiers and slaves watching, Kehos had already swung his sword to kill dozens of pirates in front of the gap. There was a large area under his feet that was stained with blood. Red corpse.

Standing in the gap, he stabbed the two pirates who were about to turn up with a sword, kicked the two corpses down, then turned his head and shouted: “Block this place!”

The people who were startled by the terrible force of Kayhuos woke up and immediately rushed to close the gap quickly.

Not only here, but in the other gaps, a dozen or so guards wearing the same armor rushed up to kill all the pirates that came up.

The knights guarded the gap, allowing others to take the opportunity to plug the gap.

The boulders in the sky are still being thrown continuously.

Seeing that the gap in front of him had been blocked, Kaihus jumped and jumped onto the gravel that blocked the gap.

Throwing the big sword down, he raised his hand and took down the strong bow on his back.

The knight in the scorching sun stood on the high stone pile of the city wall, his blond hair gleaming in the sun.

The strong bow in his hand has been pulled away.

The bow was pulled like a full moon by him.

The tip of the grease-soaked rocket burned in the air, and then, with a buzzing sound, it shot out.

Under the unbelievable look of the pirates in the distance, the rocket straddled a long arc like a gust of wind and hit the catapult on the coast.

The oil wrapped under the arrow was splashed on the wood, and the fire burned all at once.

Even Basha, who was on the pirate ship, couldn’t believe this scene.

He didn’t want to be shot by a rocket, so he deliberately placed the catapult beyond the range of the bow and arrow.

He had never imagined that someone could shoot such a long distance.

Believe it or not, there was a whistling sound in the air, and rockets shot in one after another, and soon all the three slings that the pirates had so hard to build were ignited.

Because it was under the scorching sun, it was made of wooden materials, and it burned very quickly as soon as it was ignited, and the fire was so fierce that it was too late to water.

A group of pirates jumped anxiously beside them, but they had no choice but to watch the three trebuchets turn to ashes.

“good!”

Seth yelled out of excitement.

As expected to be a prestigious scorching sun knight!

Seth hurried over and greeted Kehos, who had jumped vigorously from the pile of rocks.

Kaihus lowered his bow and picked up the sword again.

The blond knight was now covered in blood, half of the silver armor was dyed red, and the long sword in his hand was dripping with blood.

“Master Kayhus, thanks to you, otherwise…”

If it hadn’t been for Kaihuo to arrive in time with the knights and plug those gaps, Seth couldn’t imagine what would happen next.

I’m afraid it’s not far from the broken city.

“His Royal Highness asked me to help.”

Kaihus replied.

Then, the knight raised his hand and poked his side with his thumb.

“Also, when I met on the way here, I brought them by the way.”

As soon as Seth turned his head, he saw a dozen citizens of Tozes walking up the city wall and approaching him.

He frowned subconsciously.

He recognized that these are the more influential citizens in the city.

What are they here for? Is there any dissatisfaction again? Is it because of slavery?

He was a little irritable thinking that he was exhausted to resist the pirates. Can these people hide at home honestly and don’t come out to bother him?

When Seth was anxious, those people had already greeted him.

“Master Seth, we brought bows, arrows and swords.”

One person said.

“This was made by everyone together. If it is not enough, we will go back and continue to make it together.”

Seth was taken aback, walked to the edge of the city wall and looked down, only to see people standing under the city wall.

The neighing of steeds sounded from time to time. Hundreds of carriages were parked below. The carriages were filled with supplies. Many of them were piled with arrows, spears, machetes, swords and other sharp weapons.

After thinking about it, he understood that every Tozes family had such a small amount of weapons, such as anti-thief and robbers, and some wealthy merchants with guards had even more weapons in stock.

Someone continued to say: “I heard that there is not enough oil and wood, so everyone donated everything from their homes.”

Some citizens even took down all the wooden doors in their homes, chopped them into firewood and sent them over.

“Your Excellency, I am a member of the City Chinese Physician’s Union. All of us are here. The casualties are so high. I guess there will not be enough manpower to treat the wounded, so we are here to help.”

“Yes, the blacksmiths, carpenters, and coppersmiths in the city are here. Please hand over the broken weapons to us to repair.”

Seth’s gaze swept across the dark crowd below, and he was taken aback.

“Why are there so many women?” He said to the representatives of the citizens, “Hurry up and let them go back, it’s not safe here.”

“They came by themselves, they said they were also a member of Tozes City.”

“Yes, Master Seth, some of them are no less powerful than men, and they can do what men can do. Even if they don’t have enough energy, they can take care of the wounded under the city wall, deliver water and food, and wash the bandages. some type of.”

“Yes, my lord, you can leave all things like sharpening knives, boiling water, moving rocks, and transporting the wounded to us! As long as it is something we can do, everyone will work hard to do it!”

“We can’t just wait at home.”

“Anyway, pirates are dead if they come in. We would rather work hard together!”

Seth stood on the wall, head down, his eyes swept over the countless Tozeth citizens under the wall.

No one yelled, everyone stood there silently, looking up at him with their eyes open.

Many people have weapons in their hands, some even have axes for chopping wood, and hoes for farming.

It’s not that these citizens didn’t feel scared. Some even trembled with fear, with tears in their eyes, but everyone stayed here firmly.

Because behind them is their home, their relatives, their children, they have nowhere to go.

The so-called unity is probably the case.

Seeing the expectant and resolute eyes of everyone, Seth suddenly felt that the corners of his eyes were a little hot, and an indescribable feeling came from the bottom of his heart.

He turned his head and took a deep breath.

He said, “I see.”

There is no time for him to waste on the battlefield, he said quickly.

“You immediately go down and organize the manpower and send arrows and the like.”

“Go to boil the water, and the oil, it will boil.”

He said politely.

“I will arrange for slaves to send down those blunt and broken weapons, and you will arrange for someone to repair them as soon as possible.”

“As much as you can, get more supplies, fast.”

Seth’s unceremonious words made those people a happy look. They immediately ran down the city wall and returned to the citizens, relying on their prestige to start organizing and arranging manpower to do different things.

The crowd rushed, led by the leader, dispersed, and gathered their energy to start their own work.

With the help of the powerful force of the knights of Kayjos and the help of the entire city of Tozes, the scale of victory that had almost collapsed was once again eased little by little, and barely continued to stand in a stalemate with the pirates.

…………

Human nature is complicated.

Garlan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching from a distance the wall that was fighting like a blood line.

There are greedy people, and there are honest people.

There are rotten souls, and there are noble existences.

There are consuls and officials who choose to abandon their responsibilities and flee.

There are also soldiers who choose to stay.

Moreover, human nature is not constant.

The choice is often in one thought.

Just like the citizens who almost destroyed Tozes City before the same night, they are doing their best to contribute all of their strength to the protection of the city.

The young man watched the scene quietly.

On that city wall, no matter what status it was, whether it was a soldier, a slave, a merchant, or a craftsman.

Whether it is a man or a woman.

All people of different identities, different skin colors, and different genders gathered together at this moment to form an invisible solid wall.

Fear, conspiracy, selfishness, calculation… At this moment, everything is no longer important.

At this moment, there is no such thing as high or low, expensive or inferior.

All people have only one common wish.

Hold Tozes.

Defend your homeland.
