Lord of the North

His name was Ani, and he was the leader of the Black God team, and he was sent to assist Atum in breaking through the Baria Pass.

"The early morning is when the enemy's defensive awareness is weakest. Even if they are ready, their reaction speed will be much slower than usual. This is the best time for us to attack the city."

Atum, with a somewhat embarrassed expression, replied, in fact, it is very difficult for them to break through the city wall of Barea Pass in a short period of time, even with the help of the Black God Legion, it is not an easy task.

Many of his subordinates didn't understand why he gave up this pass, but he had to use it as bait in order to force out the ghost under his command.

Having a traitor lurking in one's camp and the enemy revealing one's plans is far worse than a lost Barea Pass.

"Then we can carry out a tentative attack this afternoon. Take this opportunity to destroy their arrow towers and consume part of their defensive weapons."

Ani is also very embarrassed, but when the sight is not clear enough, the Black God Ballista is like a blind man, no matter how powerful it is, it cannot be displayed.

"Is there no other way?" Atum sighed, it seems that this battle will eventually have to be filled with human life.

"If we had thunderbolt cars, our chances of winning would be better, but because of the speed limit of this march, we can't carry thunderbolt cars." Ani replied truthfully.

The Thunderbolt Chariot is the ultra-long-distance catapult like the Iron Fang collar. This time Atum did not carry this weapon for the sake of the army's marching speed.

"Then it's decided. Let's make a test this afternoon. If the enemy resists too fiercely, we will withdraw." After thinking for a while, Atum finally made a decision.

Not long after, the sun was about to set, and the army of the White Sword Province suddenly moved. Armies raised their shields and rushed towards the Balia Pass with their siege ladders on their shoulders.

Rows of archers in the rear began to rain arrows on the city wall.

The Black God Ballista launched the army array and aimed at the arrow towers that were the favorite to shoot, but because their catapults were hidden behind the city wall, they had no choice for the time being.

Boulders fell on the heads of his soldiers one after another, which made Atum feel that it was really a very wrong decision not to come out with the catapult.

Otherwise, whoever gets them to show off their power here now, I am afraid that the Thunderbolt Chariot destroyed the catapult they hid behind them out of their range before the battle.

However, it seems that there are not many catapults in the Baria Pass, because their attack density is very loose, so as long as the army of the White Sword Province disperses, the damage they cause will become much smaller.

What makes Atum even more depressed is that they can only attack from the city wall, because the city gate at the Barea Pass is too abnormal.

A siege weapon such as a battering ram is almost negligible in terms of lethality against such steel-poured things.

Finally, amidst the rain of arrows, the ladders of the White Sword Provincial Army had already reached the city wall of the Baria Pass, and the cruelest battle was about to begin.

Every time a siege ladder was destroyed and pushed down, more than a dozen soldiers fell from a height, so that they basically lost their combat effectiveness.

At the same time, the power of the Black God Ballista also made the enemies feel terrified, because their weapons such as the giant crossbow could not appear on the city wall at all.

Basically, they were smashed by a lethal arrow just before they showed up before they had time to play a role, which made the defenders of the Baria pass complain.

"It seems that this Barea pass is not so difficult to deal with."

Ani looked at the battle situation in the distance, because the soldiers on his side had already attacked the city wall. Although they could not completely break through for a while, they still had the upper hand. He didn't quite understand why Atum didn't Feel optimistic.

"Don't you think there are very few soldiers on the city wall? According to our information, there should be no less than four thousand soldiers stationed in this pass.

"Atum was expressionless, and there was one thing he didn't say, that is, the army casualties he caused were much greater than the opponent's.

About two and a half people can replace each other by one person.

"What's going on here?" Ani was shocked. Could it be that the opponent's generals are still in the mood to hide their strength in the face of the danger of breaking the city?

"We have to withdraw our troops before dark, otherwise our casualties will be even greater if we are not familiar with the terrain of Baria Pass."

Atum said meaningfully: "He is sure that we will not be able to break through the city wall in a short time, so he is planning to recharge his batteries."

"He? Do you know who the commander of this pass is?"

"Ah, I used to be a deputy army commander. I gave up the Baria pass just to find him out. This person is too dangerous."

Atum grinned and continued: "Let's withdraw our troops in a while, and then send troops to harass them at night. I want them to sleep well."

Sure enough, Atum sent an army of hundreds of people that night without concealing their tracks, beating their weapons and drums, and wandering around outside the Baria Pass with a roar.

This has been the case for three days in a row. The opponent's archers have nothing to do with them because their vision is blocked at night. The most disgusting thing for them is that they let themselves have a good rest during the day, and use the Black God ballista to shoot at the city wall Shoot a few shots.

"General, there is no way to go on like this. Even if our soldiers take turns to rest, they can't stand this kind of harassment."

At this time, inside the Barea pass, all the generals in Cecil's meeting room gathered here, and a young general felt a sigh of relief when recalling the experience of the past few days.

"What's more serious is that the morale of our soldiers has also suffered a great blow. I am worried that next time they attack the city, our soldiers will not be able to cheer up and fight with them." An older general on the other side He also said worriedly.

At this time, Cecil was in a complicated mood. He sat on the first seat with a gloomy face, fiddled with a dagger in his hand, and scratched lightly on the table.

He really didn't expect that Atum, who used to act vigorously and resolutely, would use such a disgusting strategy.

At the same time, he was annoyed enough by the noisy atmosphere in the hall, which was like a vegetable market, and finally he slammed the table, leaving a deep palm print on the table with a bang.

At the same time, the hall finally fell silent.

"I didn't ask you to come here to complain. I asked you to think of a solution."
