Glory Riding and Cutting
Chapter 43 Repelling
After Ronan finished dealing with the enemy, the nearby defenders finally reacted and blocked the gap. Under Ronan's command, they picked up the stones piled up in the corner and threw them down the ladder. Under the strength brought by the height and the weight of the stone itself, the soldiers holding the ladder were knocked down directly with their shields, their arms were twisted into weird shapes, obviously broken, and the unlucky ones were even broken directly neck.
When they had no time to add manpower to support the ladder, Ronan held onto the ladder directly, and pushed the ladder down with both arms with a low growl. The arrow shot from a distance hit Ronan's plate armor without breaking the defense at all, only issued There was a clanging sound.
The defenders at other positions saw Ronan's actions and followed suit, and the ladders were quickly overturned. The Volantenes had no choice but to retreat first, coming and going in a hurry. In less than two hours of offensive and defensive battles, Volantenes retreated after leaving hundreds of corpses behind. Killed, more injured.
This is just a tentative attack. If the whole army of Volantis presses up and starts attacking from all directions, the situation is really not optimistic. Basically, it must be unbearable. After all, the 1,000 militiamen left behind by King Terra are really worrying about their combat effectiveness. Most of them are people who have only received basic training but have no actual combat experience.
Ronan found today that many people even trembled in fear of facing the enemy's attack. How to fight the enemy if they can't even hold the weapon steadily? Train these new recruits well, otherwise there will be big problems sooner or later.
Rexxar asked the soldiers to gather the corpses together, and then lit a fire in the open space to prepare for burning. After all, they will defend here for a period of time. If the corpses are not disposed of, it is very likely to cause a plague. It's self-defeating.
The Volantenes also took the corpses with them when they retreated. After all, if the plague broke out, it would not only affect the defenders of Taiweisi, they would not be able to escape even if they were so close.
Ronan had already returned to the room at this time, the armor had already been taken off, and several attendants who were temporarily acted by the villagers were wiping the blood on Ronan's armor and sword with a rag.
"My lord, you must have killed a lot of enemies!" said the village woman who wiped Ronan's armor. She is only forty years old this year, but she is already as old as an old woman.
"Why do you say that?" Ronan who was wiping his face with the towel he just cast out asked strangely.
"Because there are so many bloodstains on your equipment, these are the blood of the Volantenes, my lord, you must beat them fiercely."
"You hate them?"
"Yes, if they hadn't invaded, we wouldn't have to leave the village, and my sons wouldn't have to join the army."
"Which army is your son serving in now?"
"Taiwei Er, my lord, I don't know how they are doing now."
"They will be fine, and we will defeat the enemy." Ronan was about to say something to the village woman when Mario's voice sounded outside the door.
"Rodrite, Rexxar summoned us to a meeting, it should be to discuss the next battle plan."
Ronan smiled at the village woman, put down the towel, put on his coat, and walked out of the room. Mario was waiting for him outside the door right now, with Inela Huanyu standing beside him. Ronan looked at him strangely, wondering how the two got mixed up.
Mario greeted Ronan, then turned around and led the way. By the time they arrived at the meeting hall of the castle, everyone had already arrived, and they were the last ones. In the vacant seat, Inella was sitting next to Ronan. Ronan peeked at her. I have to say that Ronan hasn't seen that elf with crippled hair so far, and they are basically above the passing line. , Inella is even more beautiful, but she, like her younger brother Thesma, gives people a cold and arrogant feeling.
After everyone arrived, Rexxar spoke.
"At today's stop, we also learned about the strength of the Volantenes. Only their slave regiments fought today. However, their most famous main battle force is the cavalry. The siege may not be very strong. But these The slave soldiers were well-trained and fearless, and the Volantenes had put a lot of effort into them.
Our army currently has enough combat power only the Hinterland troops we brought, and the thousand militiamen are too embarrassing to use, so I plan to train them personally during this period, at least let them play a role.
The Volantenes have already begun to build siege ladders outside the city. Although I have sent soldiers to cut down all the nearby trees, they still brought a batch of timber from other places.
But I already have a way to deal with these siege ladders, and they are nothing to worry about. As long as there are no mistakes, we will be able to persist until the troops are assembled.
In order to prevent the enemy from attacking at night, the city walls and watchtowers must be guarded 24 hours a day. Each of our clans is responsible for a section of the city wall, and we arrange people to take turns. Similarly, the rest of the soldiers must be ready to fight at any time. We The first requirement is that you must be able to wear it and enter the post within ten minutes of the alarm being raised. I hope everyone can overcome it. "
Seeing that everyone understood, Rexxar nodded in satisfaction, and after allocating the walls that the clans were responsible for guarding, Rexxar adjourned the meeting.
The city wall assigned to the Silver Moon Clan is the north wall, and Mario will arrange all the guarding. Ronan doesn't care about these trivial matters at all, he only needs to be in charge of the battle.
After spending the night safely, Volantis did not choose to attack at night, because the elves have good night vision, and attacking at night would not be conducive to their own archers.
For a few days, the two sides lived in peace, and they were busy with their own affairs. Volantis was busy building various engineering equipment, and Rexxar was busy training the militia. Under the pressure of death, the speed of progress of these militiamen is not bad. After a few days of training, the battle formation is already in shape, and the accuracy of bows and arrows has also improved a lot.
Ronan also joined Rexxar's camp to help train these militiamen when he was free. Ronan didn't know any training skills, and his combat skills were all directly instilled by the system template. But although Ronan will not teach them anything, he can be used as a partner to test their training results.
Facts have proved that Rexxar's training is still useful. At least the survivability of these militiamen has improved a lot. From the beginning, they will be knocked down by Ronan, and now they can block Ronan's attacks with weapons and shields. It can be regarded as a significant improvement, although Ronan didn't use his full strength at all.
