Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 4. Water-based

“I guess today is tougher than ever. ”

Ten knights sitting at the table nod severely. However, just making a serious face did not solve the problem. Wolf glances at the knights' faces once and then says,

“It's true that our aquatic side has the advantage. Just be persistent. ”

Then he turned to another person who was sitting at the table. He was a middle-aged man who had turned his head white but looked quite corrected.

“I'll ask for a lot more help today if I can. ”

“Don't worry. When will we ever repay the Lord for his grace? ”

His name was Groen, a representative of the group of territories who had fled into the castle to help.

Earl Frost's situation was extremely bad.

When I first started preparing for the Territory, I thought I could hold out once I rescued the mercenaries. But there was not a single mercenary that Earl Frost could employ. Bird Leon has already made his move.

I just accidentally hired two mercenaries inside the castle.

However, Wolf was surprisingly well leading the never experienced water temple.

However, if we can't get new troops, all we can do is hold them off with the troops we have.

So what he thought was to kill his own idea. It's because he was originally not very talented at tactical strategies because he knew that no matter how much he clenched his head, the answer would not come out.

Fortunately, the extent to which the newcomers performed Riyaen's words diligently, which allowed them to study tactical strategies in gaps. Everyone had no experience, but I gathered my thoughts. Having gathered such opinions and at least good ways, Wolf was able to lead the war effort moderately.

But good operations and ideas are not enough to fight. In fact, the soldiers were the ones who did the most.

Soldiers hovering in the mountains, not a day behind by Lycaen's command, had a formidable stamina unlike any other soldier in the territory.

Trained Strength and Endurance that never tires. The two exhibited the maximized effect of blending beautifully with the situation of water warfare.

In other words, I have only fought in the Water Temple with my diligence.

Of course, there was a small problem. The new knights, who were originally soldiers, ruled the troops, so there was a resistance from the officers. The problem, however, concluded simply by striking the head of the most fiercely rebellious officer.

And the help of the colonists was also very great. Of course, that could have been the case because Earl Procurus had built so many virtues for the colonists.

“Anybody got a problem? ”

When Wolf asked, Groen said with a serious look.

“Please get the erl to safety. ”

Wolf asked me with a serious look.

“Are you still here today? ”

“That's right.”

“Phew!”

Wolf finally lets out a long sigh. It was the Earl himself who was currently the most troublesome person within Earl Frost.

To help the war, the colonists appeared on the ground carrying supplies and transporting injured soldiers, leading and encouraging people.

I'm outdoorsy in battle, so I'm willing to do something like that. It was unsettling for the people below, of course.

Wolf gives a serious look while he ponders.

“It's a safe place at least... I think you should leave it alone. because if you don't do it, you're nervous. ”

At that, Groen nods anxiously, thinking he had no choice.

“Good. Let's do it again today. Take your positions!"

The knights quickly leave the meeting barracks, terrified of Wolf's words.

“Phew, I really want to fall asleep like this. ”

Wolf sighs and mutters. And in fact, there was an enormous layer of fatigue on his face.

He was plagued by the extreme environment of war, the heavy pressure from which he had to take responsibility for the war, and the overlapping fatigue.

However, he shook his head vigorously and made a commitment to himself.

“But we have to hold out until the Confucius gets here. ”

Wolf was able to endure his persistence without giving up hope because he didn't let go of the leash of faith that Lycaen would return.

And one more thing.

“When the Confucian arrives, we have to squeeze him out or get kicked out. ”

It was from the guilt that he was responsible for the territorial war. At that time, he thought that even if he wasn't sure that the person in the wagon was Senna, things wouldn't have gotten this big.

“Let's do it again today. ”

Out of the meeting barracks and up to the wall, you see the Leon cockroach gathering outside of the distance of the arrows.

Earl Frost has a population of approximately 50,000. The normal population is 500. Unless it was a war situation or an equivalent emergency, the military in the territory was set by national law to not exceed 1% of the population, and that was the limit.

Of course, it was a war on territory, and we could recruit soldiers as we prepare for it. But the Wolf opposed the recruitment.

Earl Frost's regular troops have always trained like hell up and down the mountain. It was because I thought that a mix of recruits who had only swung spears a few times would weaken their fighting power.

On the other hand, the population of Prince Leon is around 200,000. It was about the size of a typical Earl, and the number of paramedics was 2,000. And there were 15,000 troops deployed in the siege.

It is almost three times the size of Prince Leon.

Of course, there has been damage to each other in the past five days of fighting, but it has not had a significant impact on the performance of the battle.

Watching Leon's cockroach troops line up for the march, Wolf made an impression on Warak.

“Damn, you really think you're gonna make it today? ”

Siege weapons, such as Battering Ram, Siege Tower, Trebuchet Catapults, Ballistas and Ladders, were twice as many among the enemies as usual.

Jack, who was also close to Wolf, nodded with difficulty, saying the same thought.

“Looks like it's going to be a pretty tiring fight today. ”

“Shit, I can't help it. ”

It was then.

Bang, bang!

The heavy drums of the camp begin to ring. The signal of the advance. As soon as the Birch of Leon makes his move, his feet start to ring loudly.

“Trumpeter, what are you doing?! ”

The Trumpeter breathes heavily, waiting in the back for Wolf's words to end.

* Sobbing * * Sobbing *

The first trumpet sounds in a chain around the walls.

Pretend!

The sound of an army drumming from the camp and the sound of the enemy's unified footsteps echoes through the walls, raising tension to its peak.

“Reload!”

The user raises a large blue flag and a red flag at the same time as the wolf's cry. The rider of the blue flag flies the flag vigorously.

“Reload!”

Officers' echo echoes throughout the walls.

Yuck!

The broken, crooked archer vomits out a scream. The tightened protests gripped the arrows.

The sound of Leon's march warms the air of the morning as it cools down, adding to the heat of the battlefield.

The battle hasn't even begun yet, but Wolf's brow is sweating with his iliac phalanx.

No matter what happens, the beginning is important. Siege or aquatic, it started with bows from archers. And Wolf was fully aware of the importance of the timing of that bow in the past five days of combat.

‘Not yet, not yet. ’

The enemy is already within range of the arrow. However, the Wolf rarely lowers his raised hand. Not too fast, not too late.

The moment a person reaches out for a hand in battle is between the person's breath and the person's breath. And it's a universal law, whether it's a collective battle, a white war, a siege, or anywhere.

The air above the wall seems to be choking with tension. But Wolf waited relentlessly, sweating.

At that moment, it touched Wolf's nerves. Suddenly, a drum that was ringing regularly with the same rhythm as the footsteps of the Leon Bird.

The moment the Leon cockroach turns from a slow march into a raid!

“Fire!”

At last, Wolf's hand falls down. As a result, the red flag vigorously pointed to the enemy camp, and the officers all over the walls shouted for a shout.

“Fire!”

The arrows that fly at once cover the sky in black.

Whoo-hoo!

The first arrow drops from the air into the oblique line, shredding the space with a deep corrosion.

Phew!

The Leon Bird Shield hit by the arrow doesn't defeat its power, but flies it back. And then the scream blew.

“Shhhhh!”

Screaming and splattering blood from the terminals.

The battle has finally begun.

Shoot me!

Arrows fell into a rain cloud instead of rain.
