Glory Riding and Cutting

Excellent eyesight allowed Ronan to see a two-meter-tall middle-aged man with shawl-shaven blond hair and a resolute face standing at the front of the enemy army. His body was extremely strong, and his thick arms were probably as thick as Ronan's thighs. , he was wearing a half body armor with a fluffy cape, two thick arms were exposed, and a pair of chain armor trousers on his legs. Carrying a huge double-sided battle ax on the back.

At this time, he was crossing his arms and staring coldly at the castle where Ronan was. His eyes met. Ronan smiled coldly at him, raised his eyebrows and made a throat-cutting gesture. The middle-aged man frowned. He frowned, but there was no response.

"It's the mountain tribe, and the leader is Tiberius the Big Bear, the royal family of the mountain tribe. The mountain tribe originally had its own city-state far away from here, but it was broken by Seljuk 20 years ago. , the king died in battle, and Tiberius, who was still a prince at that time, escaped with some of his tribe under the protection of his guards.

Tiberius was unwilling to go into exile. For the past 20 years, he has been leading the tribe to cultivate and nourish himself, and he has been looting and fighting to accumulate wealth and experienced fighters. However, because he has no fixed base, he has not been able to develop too strong. Tiberius had been trying to attack other city-states and take them for himself, but they all hit a wall. I don't know how Volantis persuaded him to join them.

The people of the mountain tribe are said to have ogre blood in their ancestors, so they are tall and strong, impulsive and irritable, and very strong, but unfortunately they are still no match for the powerful Seljuk. I don’t know how many city-states and clans have perished in the past hundred years In the hands of Seljuk! "

Dario went to Ronan's side and said after seeing Ronan provoking the enemy.

"No matter what, they are our next enemies. We are lucky that we didn't send out a large force to deal with us. When the time comes, I will deal with this stupid big guy. I will take care of him." Ronan said confidently. Perfect, because he estimated that defeating this barbarian would also provide a lot of prestige and honor.

"Tiberius is not only big, he is called 'Big Bear' because of his strong strength and keen fighting instincts, and he is not as bulky as he appears on the surface, and many people who think so pay for it The price of blood!" Seeing Ronan eager to try, Dario didn't stop him, but he still kindly reminded him not to be fooled by Tiberius' appearance.

"It doesn't matter, if you lose, it can only prove that I am nothing more than that."

"as long as you are happy!"

It seemed that the enemy army would not attack for a while. Ronan felt his empty stomach and decided to go to the cafeteria to eat something. Taking advantage of the fact that the items in the backpack would not perish, Ronan put a lot of desserts in it Small snacks, you can secretly take them out to satisfy your cravings when no one is around.

The soldiers began to mobilize, and rushed to their assigned defensive positions with dry food. While eating, they stared at the enemy's position. Although there were not many defenders, the city wall was very short, and there was still room for them to spread out. , and it is impossible to jump from the five-meter-high city wall on the opposite side, and it is meaningless to jump off, the city gate is not opened and closed from the inside.

Therefore, as long as the stairs under the city wall and the watchtowers where the organs are located can be concentrated, the pressure on the defenders can be reduced, but to the surprise of Ronan and others, the enemy did not attack after setting up camp and eating. , but returned to their respective tents to rest.

Confused, but Ronan and the others did not relax their vigilance, and ordered the soldiers to keep an eye on the enemy camp before going down the city wall. The soldiers were in groups of three, scattered in three watchtowers, with four-hour shifts, and stared at them 24 hours a day.

At night, in the mountain tribe camp, Tiberius was sitting on a temporary wooden bed listening to his subordinates report:

"Boss, there aren't many defenders in the castle. According to observations, there should be less than one hundred!"

"But it's not easy to attack. We can only attack in two directions, and the castle is not big. Those defenders are enough to defend the two walls. What do the Volantenes say?"

"The reply said that the main force is besieging Taiwei II, and it should not take long to break through. Before that, there is no way to divide troops to help us, and General Jino said that the city may be the prince of Taila, saying that he is our vote. , there is no need to catch the living, just let go and deal with it.

Moreover, the letter said that the enemy did not dare to send a large force to rescue them. They are weaker than our army. If they come out in full force, it would suit our army. General Jino will always send scouts to keep an eye on them, and will stop them if there is any movement. them. "

"Hmph! These Volantenes are really all big profiteers. Tell the soldiers to rest well. We will attack the city at dawn tomorrow!"

"yes!"

Watching his subordinates walk out of the tent, Tiberius wiped the double-sided giant ax in his hand again. This weapon is inherited from the mountain tribe. After inheriting it from his father, he accompanied him to fight for more than 20 years. He cut off countless weapons, but he was not damaged at all, and even the wooden handle did not show any trace of corrosion.

In the early years before he became famous, when Tiberius was still young, he relied on it to overcome many difficulties and defeated many powerful enemies. Tiberius cherished it very much and basically carried it on his back anytime and anywhere.

After wiping the weapon and putting it gently on the bedside, Tiberius sighed. This time he chose to take the risk and assist Volantis in invading Terra because he couldn't hold on any longer. He was over forty years old. His physical fitness began to decline, and he had no children, and there were no worthy warriors in the tribe.

The wandering life has restricted the development of the tribe. The tribe has not become stronger for many years, and the number of people has not been increased. Several attacks on other city-states have failed, which has seriously affected the strength of the tribe. After his death, he did not know Gaoshan Whether the tribe can continue to continue.

This time Volantis promised that as long as the mountain tribe became a subsidiary of Volantis and sent troops to help Volantis defeat Terra, Volantis would divide one of the acropolis of Terra and its surrounding areas to the mountain tribes.

The people in the tribe have already lived a life of nomads, and they are all eager to regain a place that can be called home. Who knows who leaked Volantis' proposal, and the people of the tribe find it from time to time. Billy hoped that he would accept Volantis' terms.

Tiberius knew that those profiteers in Volantis were just looking at the military power of the mountain tribe, and he didn't know how much of the benefits promised to the tribe would be implemented after the event was completed.

But looking at the expectant expressions of the people in the tribe, Tiberius chose to accept it. After all, the mountain tribes had almost nowhere to go. If this continued, they would really only be exiled tribes forever. Rise or perish, all in one fell swoop, thinking of this, Tiberius' expression became firm again.
