Empires Start with Lords - Chapter 23

The sun gradually went down, and Babur finally entered the city with a group of knights.

Babur said to Ross, “Lord Lord, the orcs are gradually approaching. These orcs are all mid-level orcs, and there are about a thousand scattered orcs.”

Ross put down the wine glass gently. One thousand orcs are equivalent to nearly eight thousand low-level orcs. Ross said, “Go and observe again, and pay attention to safety.”

After Babur left, Ross thought to himself that this group of orcs should be far more than that.

Since Ross summoned the soldiers a few hours ago, the Eye of Hope Territory has more than 2,000 knights and 5,000 infantry.

Ross left only five hundred knights and one or two thousand barracks soldiers in other cities.

Moreover, Ross also strengthened some of the soldiers, becoming charge soldiers with five times more powerful attributes.

These soldiers have the same combat power as low-level orcs.

A knight is equivalent to a low-level orc, and a charge soldier is equivalent to a light knight.

With the strengthening function in the military camp, Ross can immediately strengthen the combat effectiveness of the trained soldiers. Ross did not pay attention to the thousand-headed mid-level orcs who moved towards the Eye of Hope.

It was Marquis Raisel who really made Ross fearful!

The next moment, a soldier came and said to Ross, “Lord Lord, the longbowmen of the watchtower found a group of unidentified civilians.”

Ross got up and went to the watchtower to take a look.

In the direction of more than 1,000 meters in the distance, a convoy was approaching. There were probably more than 30 people scattered here and there. All of them were wearing dirty commoners, bracelets and anklets, and they were very embarrassed.

Ross pointed to the group of civilians with muddy hands and feet, and said, “Shoot all of them, not one!”

“Yes!”

Although they answered immediately, most of the longbowmen showed a special expression on their faces.

It seems to be sympathy.

Ross shrugged indifferently, when a kind longbowman asked, “Lord Lord, do you really want to shoot? They look like ordinary civilians…”

Ross smiled, pointed to the clothes on one of the civilians, and said, “Be careful, he is wearing the clothes of the palace guards. Don’t be deceived by appearances.”

As soon as Ross said this, all the longbowmen collectively looked in one direction. The corner of this man’s body was indeed a smear of red clothes, not a muddy cloth.

Seeing such a scene, the longbowman who pleaded for the group of enemies was deeply ashamed, and started to shoot over there.

Clap clap clap!

Ross supported the wooden building on the watchtower and watched as the group of English longbowmen shot to death from such a long distance without exception. Within a minute, the soldiers disguised as persecuted civilians were directly shot to death. half.

Ross saw that the remaining soldiers hurriedly took out their weapons, either bows or firearms, and shot directly at Ross.

Fortunately, the distance is too long, these medium-range weapons can’t hit that far at all.

The bullet went out in mid-air.

After Ross ordered all these people to be shot to death, several knights quickly dragged the bodies of the group back on horseback.

“There should be no one else nearby.”

Ross inspected for a while, and then sighed with emotion that Raisel colluded with the royal family, and even let these people pretend to be civilians to come to Ross.

Fortunately, the flaw was revealed, otherwise Ross might really open the city gate.

With such a high city wall, it is impossible for the city to be broken unless the army is approaching the city.

Although these civilians did not have much influence on Ross, once the soldiers disguised as civilians rushed to open the city gates when Resel dispatched the army, it would be troublesome.

Guess this was their tactic, Ross smiled disdainfully.

“Since Raisel has made his move, I’ll start too.”

Although Ross’s military strength is far less than that of Raisel, and it seems that he can only rely on the huge gate and city wall that towers to 70 to 80 meters high, Ross actually has other plans.

The marching cart was Ross’s plan.

When Ross purchased fifteen expensive marching carts, he found a location to ambush.

Ross opened the map around here, and there was an ambush in a mountain range near Rexel City, less than a kilometer south of Rexel City.

If longbowmen and catapults are placed on it, they can strike Raisel City as soon as possible. By the way, the marching cart can be directly pushed out with the inertia of more than 1,000 meters from the top of the mountain to Raisel City. It takes a **** to break through the city of Resel.

Ross has had great hopes for the marching vehicle these days.

The huge iron drill bit at the front of the car is hardly lost to any city-breaking equipment, and there are still fifteen of them, which is equivalent to fifteen city-breaking equipment that can walk automatically. It does not require anyone to risk being killed to break it. city.

Ross conjectured that Marquis Raisel would never have thought of it, but he did not take the usual path and dispatched a large number of troops to ambush Raisel’s lair~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is estimated that at this time, the old fellow of Reisel was still thinking about how to besiege him. What about Ross?

After all, in Raisel’s eyes, Ross must not have noticed it at this time, and he was already a beast of siege. He just had to wait for the royal family, Raisel, and even the orcs to be besieged.

“Naive…”

Ross was lying on the balcony of a small medieval castle, the lounge chair was swaying, and Ross was basking in the sun comfortably.

And the other side.

A man with gray temples and over fifty years old was standing there, giving orders with a solemn expression.

A huge castle that is more than ten times larger than Ross’s castle. It is extremely gorgeous and full of aristocratic atmosphere. It seems that all the money for looting the poor civilians is used for it.

The man dressed in an extravagantly extravagant and extravagant manner was the well-known Marquis Raisel.

At this moment, he was directing an ambush, and he was even complacent at this attention, extremely proud.

“Hmph, isn’t that trash trying to take civilians away from me? I’ve closed the city gate, let’s see how you steal it!”

Thinking of the fact that more than 2,000 civilians have moved away these days, Reisel thought very casually at first, wherever these poor dogs go, they will all die in the wilderness anyway.

Until one of his subordinates told him that these civilians had all gone to Ross’s territory, Raisel’s teeth tickled at the thought of it that night.

Immediately announce the execution of all civilians who have the idea of ​​fleeing, and then close the city gates.

At this moment, Reisel said with great pride: “That waste of the earl, didn’t he want to steal someone from me, then I’ll give him some alms.”

Obviously, Reisel meant the group of soldiers who were disguised as civilians by the soldiers discovered by Ross.
