Real Mount and Blade Game

Chapter 103 Shen Mu's Raid

‘Boom! ’

Then, the surging floodwaters rushed towards the diesel company, which was like a dam, with a loud sound like thunder.

When those pig-headed people and other bandit sub-human races realized that this flood was not a flood...

But when a group of human heavy cavalry charged over, it was already too late!
"rush!"

Shen Mu rushed to the front, and the 10 Holy Tree Knights and 50 Holy Tree Cavalry on both sides immediately lined up on the left and right.

In a short period of time, a wedge-shaped formation like a sharp arrow was formed as the horses galloped.

During a cavalry charge, it is the best and most effective classic charge formation for attacking long and slender enemy formations by using point-to-point attacks, and it can easily tear apart the enemy formation!

"For the Holy White Oak!"

"For the Knights of the Sacred Tree!"

The Holy Tree Knights and Holy Tree Cavalry shouted together, clenching their lances tightly.

Looking at the faces distorted by fear and the eyes full of despair and panic that were so close before him, he followed his comrades in front of him and pointed his lances forward.

As they cross paths and face the enemy, the tip of the gun naturally points to the enemy.

'puff! '

The terrifying force unleashed by the sharp gun tip due to inertia easily pierced through the fat and bones of the pig-headed man, even his internal organs were pierced in an instant, and his muscles and skin were crushed into a ball.

In just a moment, the sharp wedge formation led by Shen Mu broke the long snake formation in half.

61 cavalrymen lined up in a charging formation.

Nearly 300 pig-headed men within their charging range fell down with wails. In the entire snake formation area of ​​nearly 50 meters, there were less than people who could still stand!
These Holy Tree Knights and Holy Tree Cavalry can enter the charge state in a short period of time.

This has something to do with the armor they wear, which is slightly lighter.

It is even more closely related to the fact that they have been honing their riding skills and practicing charging techniques countless times in the Holy Tree Knights!
Especially this tactic of arranging all the people in a cavalry wedge formation to launch a surprise attack on the enemy.

Even more skillful!

Enter the charge state in a short period of time and then tear apart the enemy's formation.

Let the subsequent infantry follow up.

It is a classic tactic in the world of Mount & Blade: Pendor where the Knights of the Sacred Tree exist.

But now, it is not the infantry of the Holy Tree Knights who are following up.

Instead, after hearing the sound of Shen Mu's horn, the cavalrymen from the Swadian Kingdom, wearing black chain armor on both their horses and men, lined up in two rows from the opposite community!
"For Swadia!"

"charge!"

Fatis rode forward, accompanied by 10 Swadian knights and 35 Swadian heavy cavalrymen whose horses' heads were parallel in a line.

They lined up neatly in a row, each controlling their speed so that the horses under their crotch ran in parallel.

Behind him, there were another 35 Swadian heavy cavalrymen in the second row, about 20 meters apart. They also controlled the speed of their horses, trotting leisurely and slowly increasing the speed of their charge.

Compared to the cavalry charge of the Holy Tree Knights, it was like a wedge-shaped arrow, tearing through the enemy's formation with a point-blank attack.

These Swadian cavalrymen started to run, then began to speed up and charge...

It's like a super huge hammer!

Or rather, a steel wall!

"Boom boom boom—"

They formed two rows of standard low walls more than 3 meters high, and began to approach the pig-headed people whose formation had been torn apart, cut in half, and stunned by the sudden charge of the cavalry at an increasingly faster speed.

The horseshoe carries heavy weight and inertia, with the roar and vibration caused by hammering the ground.

He hit it hard!

The goal is to cut the tail of the pig-headed man's long snake formation team in half by the Holy Tree Knights led by Shen Mu.

Those pig-headed people who were at a loss in the desert terrain and stood there stupidly, watching the rampant cavalry breaking the formation in front of them and seeing more than 300 of their companions being tragically beaten to serious injuries or death, began to waver in their hearts and wanted to retreat!
‘Boom! ’

Then came the overwhelming force, a wall-riding charge that was even more terrifying than the wedge-formation charge of the Knights of the Holy Tree, which instantly broke through the tail of the group of pig-headed men.

It really was like a huge hammer, sweeping away everything that dared to appear in front of them!
These pig-headed people who were already panicked and had blank minds were directly defeated!
And all these pig-headed people were mixed into the meat grinder of their charge, in front of their sharp lances, under the horseshoes that were trampled by them, and on the chests of the war horses that were also wrapped in iron armor and rushed towards them with surging inertia!
Mix these pig-headed people in and smash them to pieces!

The seemingly simple charge with guns held against the wall hides countless deadly dangers!
If the wedge formation is the standard cavalry formation for tearing apart the enemy's formation, it can easily tear apart the enemy's formation.

Then, charging on the wall with spears in hand is essentially a terrifying tactic that requires both men and horses to wear heavy armor, which can cause a huge impact on the enemy, even a phalanx of spears. It is all about smashing any enemy formation!
This may be due to two different schools of cavalry charge.

To be specific, it is the classical cavalry style that uses surprise attacks and sneak attacks by conventional cavalry, as well as the use of battlefield mobility to habitually charge at the side or north of the enemy formation.

The key is to tear apart the enemy's formation, and then engage in a melee with the enemy within the enemy's formation.

In this process, the enemy can be completely defeated with the help of the following infantry or reinforcements.

Then win.

For example, during the Crusades, the Byzantine and Arab cavalry were accustomed to and best at using cavalry, combining infantry and cavalry in combat.

But the heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia is completely different.

They were the Crusader cavalry, which was the kind of cavalry in Western Europe that was completely composed of charges from noble cavalry, and they formed an absolute main force in their own right to attack the enemy.

When attacking the enemy formation, try to completely break it down.

But no matter whether this charge breaks the enemy's formation or not, we will definitely not fight to the end.

Turn around and leave.

Then adjust the formation from a hundred meters away and come back to launch another charge!
The most common way is a wave of heavy cavalry charging.

The charge is over.

Leave the battlefield immediately.

Then, the second wave of prepared heavy cavalry charge followed.

The third wave, the fourth wave, and even a cyclical charge, one wave after another.

Until the enemy's formation is completely broken.

The formation was completely broken.

It won't stop until victory is achieved!
Infantry is just a tool to hold off the enemy troops, and archers are just a way to harass the enemy formation.

This is very similar to the battlefield concept of the Kingdom of Swadia!
In the history of the Crusades, the mixture of Arab and Byzantine cavalry and infantry often formed extremely qualified classical mixed forces.

It was simply impossible for the Crusaders from Western Europe to match them.

However, when the noble knights and cavalry of the Crusaders gathered together and charged the enemy using this tactic of riding on the wall and charging with guns.

This is often the time when the Byzantine and Arab troops would be defeated and collapsed in a short period of time.

Because compared to the classical cavalry charge.

This kind of charge with lances on the wall is a charge that uses elite knights as the main force in the most cavalry-like way, but it just happens to bring about the cavalry's combat method, a charge revolution!
A very successful revolution in charge tactics!
The result is just like now.

Shen Mu led the Holy Tree Knights and cut the enemy in half.

Fatis led the Swadian cavalry and defeated the pig-headed people at the rear of the enemy who were still in the desert terrain with two waves of charges from front and back.

Just outside the rammed earth wall of the Orc tribe.

Right under the noses of these Orc tribes.

The charge was completed.

Destroyed the marching formation of those pig-headed people and their vassal troops.

Then they turned their horses around and regrouped on the left and right.

Coincidentally, the target of the charge was once again locked on the group of pig-headed people in the front who had already entered the main road of Balihe Street and were now panicked because of the sudden attack.

"Well--"

The long horn sound appeared again.

Shen Mu blew the encouragement horn in his left hand again.

Although the horn has been blown before, the morale and courage increased during the duration will not be accumulated again.

But this horn also represents a signal.

Fatis, who was hundreds of meters away, immediately understood what Shen Mu meant.

He summoned the Swadian cavalry around him and immediately took action, heading forward and starting to charge forward with guns on the wall again!
"For Swadia! For honor! Charge!"

Fatis shouted.

Even for many knights and heavy cavalry, after the previous round of charge, the lances in their hands had become strings of candied haws, and they had no choice but to abandon them on the battlefield.

But now, he had raised the knight's sword and hand-and-half sword in his hand, these slender and sturdy swords that were good at stabbing and chopping, high above his head and pointed them diagonally forward, as if they were new spears.

The long sword that was shining brightly with a cold light was, for a moment, even more terrifying than the deterrent power brought by the spear.

The pig-headed men and other vassal troops who were frightened by the wave of charge did not dare to stand in the way of the Swadian cavalry who were charging.

They actually scattered and fled in panic towards the surrounding residential areas with complex environments!

That is to say.

These pig-headed men and their vassal armies completely handed over the initiative on the battlefield to Fatis's Swadian cavalry.

Give the victory to Shen Mu!
"Don't chase! Let's leave here!" But Shen Mu did not want to fight.

In other words, they succeeded in their attack and gained a huge advantage, causing at least 2000 casualties on the orc army of more than 500 people, and then chose to leave immediately.

"Understood!" Fatis originally wanted to use the knight's sword in his hand, dismount and start chasing the deserters in both directions.

However, when he heard the order from Shen Mu riding over, he immediately chose to obey.

He turned his horse around and followed Shen Mu and the members of the Knights of the Holy Tree with these Swadian knights and heavy cavalry.

He continued to speed up his horse and galloped along the wide main road towards the town of Dehrim where they came from.

With the roar of horseshoes hitting the ground, they quickly left.

The entire edge of the desert was left with only a mess of corpses and a large number of pig-headed men and their servants who had just recovered from the surprise attack.

And those diesel company employees who had emerged from their panic and became increasingly angry after seeing such a scene.

This was the first time that the Diesel Company had been targeted and raided so miserably since it had taken over the Orc Tribe.

This is the first time I’ve suffered such a big loss!
Even the last time, a year and a half ago, when they fought against the wood elves in the city's wetland gardens, they did not lose 500 of their own pig-headed men in one battle.

Now, they have just left the protection of the tribal walls.

Or just came out of the tribe.

He suffered such a great loss.

How could these diesel company employees not be angry?!

of course.

This is also the reason why Shen Mu requested that after the charge was completed, they should quickly leave the battlefield and leave the area.

I just caught the other party off guard, it was the result of a surprise attack.

Rather than the small number of oneself, the real strength.

A cavalry unit of only 132 people.

No matter how fully armed they are, no matter how heavily armored both the man and the horse are.

Charge with unparalleled power.

The absolute disadvantage in numbers is still here.

Shen Mu didn't want to take any risks.

If those pig-headed people could react, they would line up one by one in the complex environment where they cannot charge, regroup and fight back.

In addition, since it is so close to the Diesel Company’s tribe, new troops may come to support it at any time.

Under attack from front and back.

Loss of mobility, loss of space for charge, and loss of opportunity to escape from the battlefield.

By then, these heavy cavalry, which were insufficient in number, would be surrounded here, and their fate would be self-evident.

Once the cavalry loses its tactical space, there will be no infantry to support them.

After being caught in a long-term melee, the disadvantages will become extremely obvious.

For Shen Mu, even the loss of a cavalryman would be very painful for him.

It is better to leave immediately after a successful attack.

Eat a piece of fat and run.

In this way, with the help of sufficient tactical space reserved, you can eat up the enemy's troops little by little and be safe!

What's more, a dialog box popped up right in front of Shen Mu.

[Ding! Congratulations! You and your troops have won this battle with absolute courage and superb tactics! ]

[Ding! After the post-battle system evaluation, your victory was a 'satisfying' victory! ]

[You have obtained——Silver-level treasure chest × 1. ]

[Ding! Because of your proper arrangement, you made the choice to take the initiative to attack, and successfully carried out a feast of cavalry charge in the enemy's sphere of influence, severely thwarting the enemy's arrogance.]

[You have obtained——]

[①+1 skill upgrade: You can choose a skill to upgrade. ]

【②1000 dinars. This is a monetary reward. 】

[③ City defense silver treasure chest. This contains a series of arrangements for the city defense battle. Compared with ordinary silver treasure chests, this city defense silver treasure chest is more precious.]

[Tip: Your skill points are more suitable for 'Powerful Strike (lv1 Warrior Skill)' because of cost-effectiveness. ]

A dialog box appeared in front of Shen Mu, which showed the rewards for completing this temporary task and winning the battle.

However, as the Holy Tree Heavy Steed under his crotch ran quickly, the spire of the main building of Rhodok Castle could be seen in front of him.

and the outline of the walls of Dhrim.

They returned to their territory.

"Open the city gate!"

At the west gate, the Lake Rat Gang vandals shouted, reopened the gate, and lowered the drawbridge again.

As the heavy bridge deck of the suspension bridge hit the other side of the trench again.

A passage that can allow three heavy cavalrymen or five fully armed infantrymen to pass side by side appeared here.

'Rumble'

Then Shen Mu took the lead and entered the town.

Behind him came Fatis, the knights and the cavalry, who also filed in in an orderly manner and entered the city gate.

"The Holy Tree Cavalry and the Swadian Heavy Cavalry have returned to the military camp to rest again."

At this time, Fatis tightened the reins at the city gate, stopped the Swadian horse under his crotch, and made arrangements for these knights and cavalry: "All Holy Tree Knights, Swadian Knights, follow Lord Shen Mu back to the noble mansion!"

"Understood!" the knights and cavalry responded in unison.

Then they separated and went to their respective destinations to rest.

The Holy Tree Cavalry and the Swadian Heavy Cavalry returned to the military camp, where many tents had been set up. In addition, there was also the Lake Rat Gang training camp, where they could take off their armor and lie down to rest, allowing their consumed energy to recover.

As for their own war horses, the Swadian light infantry assigned to them were responsible for removing their armor and feeding them water and fodder.

They don't need to worry about anything.

Including in the noble mansion.

These knights who also followed Shen Mu back as personal guards also handed over their horses to the Swadian light infantry who served as servants in the nobles' mansions.

They would also take off their armor, and then fetch clean water and fodder to replenish the strength and nutrition of the war horses.

In today's towns and castles, who should do what and who should have what job.

The division of labor is very clear!
Especially after Manid arrived, the Swadian light infantry, which has the largest number of people and now has 390 people, was arranged in an orderly manner.

On the city walls and towers, there were also skilled Rhodok crossbowmen armed with war crossbows and Vikian archers armed with nomadic bows standing guard.

Teams of Swadian light infantry and Lake Rat Gang saboteurs were also patrolling back and forth.

Because it was a city defense battle, the infantry and archers were more nervous at this time.

For the cavalry who had just returned, as long as the city wall had not been breached, it would be their first priority to recover their strength as quickly as possible, wait for the order, and then put on their armor and ride their horses to charge into battle.

……

Noble residence, meeting hall.

Shen Mu sat at the head of the long table. "Sir, please have some honey milk." A Swadian light infantryman brought the drink.

"Hmm." Shen Mu took it. The milky white milk in the glass had a hint of warmth, but it was not hot. It was obviously boiled in advance and then left to cool down until now, just about the same temperature as body temperature.

So Shen Mu drank it all in one gulp. As the rich milky aroma mixed with the sweetness of honey entered his throat, he nodded with great satisfaction and praised, "It's a very good drink. You guys did a good job."

Shen Mu was really satisfied with the warm honey milk.

Especially after coming back from a fierce battle, riding a horse all the way, your whole body is hot due to exercise, and you have consumed a lot of physical energy. A cup of warm milk with honey added can quickly make up for the lost water and sugar.

It can help the body recover faster.

Moreover, compared to the cool and refreshing cold drinks, Shen Mu knows the disadvantages of drinking cold drinks after intense exercise.

If things go wrong, something serious will happen.

This also shows that these battle-tested Swadian light infantry are very aware of the taboos of post-war care.

"Thank you for the compliment."

The Swadian light infantryman holding the pottery pot next to him suddenly smiled and poured another cup for Shen Mu.

Then he saw three generals walking towards the main entrance of the mansion. They brought two glasses and poured milk with honey into them. Finally, they placed the entire ceramic pot on the table and respectfully said goodbye and left.

Now it is time for the legendary figure Shen Mu to communicate with the three commanders currently in the town.

As a servant, he knew clearly that now was not the time for him to stay here.

"Lord Shen Mu."

"Lord Shen Mu."

"Lord Shen Mu."

Bandak and Fatis were in front, and Manide was half a step behind. At this time, he came in front of Shen Mu, bowed respectfully and touched his chest to salute.

"Well, let's all sit down and talk." Shen Mu sipped his milk and gestured for them to sit down.

"Thank you." The three thanked again and then sat down on both sides of the long table.

Fatis sat down on the right, followed by Bandak.

Manid sat down on the left.

The seats are clearly divided into military generals and domestic affairs generals.

This is also an unspoken rule.

Shen Mu had no objection to this. After all, military and internal affairs were separate.

In the game, because all these recruited generals need to go to the battlefield, their division is not very clear.

But now it has become the real world, so we should distinguish them clearly so that we can make plans for the future.

For example now.

"How is the town's defense arrangement going?" Shen Mu asked.

"Everything has been arranged." Bandak immediately stood up and answered seriously, "Archers and crossbowmen have been arranged, and members of the Lake Rat Gang who can throw javelins have been stationed at the two city gates of the town. At critical moments, there are also light infantry from Swadia who can provide support at any time."

"Well, very good." Shen Mu nodded. He believed in Bandak's defensive layout level.

It can be said that the Rhodok people are not bad at all when it comes to defensive warfare!

"Lord Shen Mu, according to common practice, I have made preparations for the worst." Bandak paused slightly at this time, and looked at Shen Mu while speaking, his tone was even more subtle.

After all, there are many generals or high-ranking nobles who do not like this so-called worst-case scenario.

Even this should be arranged in advance.

"You say." Shen Mu understood why Bandak paused, waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. No matter when, we should prepare for the worst and make corresponding plans. This is very good."

"Thank you for your understanding and open-mindedness, Lord Shen Mu." Bandake finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He swallowed softly and said, "If the town is lost, we can all retreat into the castle and use the castle's height, walls, and the density of its towers to continue resisting the enemy."

"Well, go on." Shen Mu nodded. He realized that Bandak had something else to say.

"But during this process, I hope that Knight Fatis can lead the cavalry to leave the town, stay outside the town, or even withdraw from the battlefield of this battle to defend the city."

Bandak spoke and looked at Fatis.

"Why?" Shen Mu frowned.

"Because a cavalry roaming outside can charge the enemy at any time, it will inevitably tie up a part of the enemy to defend against the cavalry led by Knight Fatis who may charge at any time to seize the opportunity."

Bandak explained: "Before the enemy attacks the city wall, as long as they haven't blocked the two city gates, we can always send Knight Fatis to lead the cavalry out and look for opportunities to attack the enemy."

"Yes, Master Shen Mu, Mr. Bandak and I have talked about it before." Fatis also stood up at this time and reported respectfully: "I think it is possible."

This was the consensus reached by two military generals when discussing defensive operations.

This is basically a routine operation on the continent of Calradia.

"Well, that's it." Shen Mu nodded and directly approved the two's suggestions.

After all, on a real battlefield, Shen Mu still chose to believe in the consensus reached by these two generals who had been instilled with real battlefield experience by the Mount and Blade system and could be said to be experienced old-fashioned generals.

Shen Mu never concealed the fact that he was not good at commanding battles.

Before crossing over, he was just a programmer who was good at talking on paper.

For things like fighting.

It should be left to professionals.

Even in his own mind, when the Mount & Blade system loaded the character template for him, it also loaded various experiences about the Knights of the Holy Tree in the Holy Tree Knights Order.

Including experience such as commanding battles.

But the one who occupied Shen Mu’s main consciousness was still the programmer from his previous life, not this Holy Tree Knight at all.

So, fake is fake.

At the critical moment, you must be able to stand here.

After Shen Mu approved their suggestions, Bandak and Fatis bowed their heads respectfully and then sat down with gratitude.

This feeling of respect was something the two had never felt during their wanderings in Calradia.

At this time, Shen Mu also looked at Manide, his internal affairs-oriented general.

"Sir, during this period of time today, I have arranged for those new Vikia soldiers to move the supplies in the town warehouse to the warehouse in the castle area."

Manide immediately stood up, saluted with his hands on his chest, and reported seriously:
"And I have already arranged the vacant areas in the military buildings within the castle area. If we really carry out the worst-case scenario, all soldiers will be able to get their own beds and won't have to worry about food."

"Yeah, very good." Shen Mu nodded in satisfaction.

"Also, sir," Manide said hesitantly at this time, "there is also the issue of water sources. I think this is a big problem."

"Hmm?" Shen Mu frowned.

"Our current water source is all supplied by the Crescent Lake Pond. If we are trapped in the castle area for a long time and cannot enter the town area, then the drinking water we store in the castle area will be seriously insufficient."

Manide spoke directly and explained this extremely serious problem clearly.

“…hiss.” As soon as Manide finished speaking, Bandak and Fati’s faces changed slightly, and they both took a breath of cold air.

After looking at each other, they discovered this huge problem that they had not usually noticed.

Water shortage!

In other words, the Castle area, which can be regarded as the last line of defense, is suffering from severe water shortage!

In the current castle area, only the kitchen in the main building of the castle stores some fresh water, which is used as a reserve for daily food preparation.

Otherwise, there is the stable in the castle area, because war horses may be led there at any time, and some fresh water is also stored there.

There is absolutely no fresh water left!

Even when I came here, I saw Manid asking those new Vikia soldiers to enter the castle area carrying large and small jars of water.

The two of them did not connect the issue of fresh water resources at all.

Now that the situation has been explained.

It’s really terrifying when you think about it carefully!
Normally, water could be easily drawn from the Crescent Lake pond in the town area. Once they retreated to the castle area, they would completely lose their water source and could not even afford daily drinking water.

If the enemy lays siege for a long time, we can just wait for them to use up all the fresh water.

Just wait and watch.

I'm afraid that in the end, in order to avoid dying of thirst, they will have no choice but to surrender!

Even if they cannot surrender, and eventually lose their combat effectiveness due to lack of water, what can they do when the enemy starts attacking?

"This is indeed a very serious problem. Well done, Manide." Shen Mu felt a chill on his back when he thought about it.

Even the action of drinking the honey milk came to a halt.

"For this battle, I have arranged enough drinking water for all the people and horses, nearly three days' supply."

Manid then added: "As long as the battle lasts no more than three days, we will have enough drinking water to ensure the maintenance of combat effectiveness."

"Yes." Shen Mu nodded with relief: "These three days are enough."

In this age filled with the rule of the dead, although the night is extremely dangerous, for anyone, any blue star human or spirit world creature, it is a fatal time period where one can die if one is not careful.
But for the attacked party, it is actually a better thing.

As long as the battle can be dragged out until night.

Then when night falls, the gray fog fills the air, and the rules of the dead fill the entire world.

If a large number of troops dare to stay in the wild in the darkness for a long time, they will cause the undead rules to become restless.

At that time, more and stronger undead monsters will descend from the darkness and gray fog.

Even at the end, according to legend, a systematic army of undead came and attacked the spiritual forces that dared to challenge the rules of the undead!
And it is within the rules of the undead, as long as there is no fire or light source to dispel the darkness and fog.

Then, an endless stream of undead monsters, as if there was no end at all, attacked them!

In this way, the attackers would not have to face a counterattack from the city walls at night.

Also have to resist the attacks of undead monsters.

Extremely tricky!

That's why Shen Mu thought that having enough water to store for three days was enough.

With so many troops gathered here, and including a force composed of spiritual creatures that can cause violent reactions to the undead rules, Shen Muke doesn't believe that the other side can continue to besiege him here for a long time.

"But after this is over, we will have to upgrade the town's walls."

Shen Mu also sighed in his heart.

Upgrading is simple.

I don’t know where the dinars needed to upgrade the city walls came from.

"In my previous life, I was worried about where the money would come from, and now I still have to worry about money."

Shen Mu thought about it and felt a little annoyed. He couldn't help but pinch his brows and waved to the three generals in front of him, saying, "Go back to your work. Check the troops and pay attention to the details."

"Understood." Bandak, Fati, and Manide immediately stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.

This simple pre-war meeting has come to an end.

There's no point in continuing the conversation.

The enemy is on the way.

All they could do now was to carefully check all the troops again to make sure there were no mistakes anywhere.

Then, we can welcome those enemies from Diesel Company coming!
Shen Mu was also waiting for the other party to arrive.

Thinking about those pig-headed people from the diesel company, they just formed a long snake formation and marched towards him without doing any investigation. His eyes became more and more mocking:

"At this level, it seems that even I am not as good as him."

At least Shen Mu still knows how to investigate.

But if you think about it, when those pig-headed people from the Diesel Company came over this time, Shen Mu didn't see any siege weapons when he went out to investigate.

This made Shen Mu particularly confused.

"Those guys from Diesel Company, don't they still think my castle is still inside the apartment?"

Such a thought appeared in Shen Mu's mind.

But if you imagine it, it's not impossible.

After all, Shen Mu's growth rate was too fast under the promotion of the Mount and Blade rules.

The first week was just a base in an apartment.

The second week was the castle main building in the apartment.

By the third week, before the arrival of the Black Tide, the castle main building and village were built on the flat land after the area was flattened.

By the fourth week the Kuroshio had ended.

It is now the fifth week.

Shen Mu has directly transformed his sphere of influence into the Rhodok Castle with a complete defense system and a small town.

This speed of change.

It's really like riding a rocket!
"So, the other party has not kept up with my development pace at all, and still thinks that my current territory is inside the apartment, so he has not considered siege weapons and is still planning to get rid of me by attacking the apartment?"

Shen Mu shook his head.

Suddenly, he wanted to know if those Diesel Company troops were coming.

After finding yourself in this perfect fortification consisting of castles and towns.

What a mood that would be!

"System!" When Shen Mu thought of this, his mood got rid of the solemnity he had in the beginning when facing the attack, and became a lot more relaxed.

Then the thought communication system: "Open the silver-level treasure chest, and the city defense silver-level treasure chest."

Almost instantly, the outlines of two treasure chests appeared on Shen Mu's retina.

It was an exquisite treasure chest wrapped in silver.

"Hmm?" Shen Mu glanced at one of the silver treasure chests, which was obviously slightly larger. He looked at the many engineering and architectural patterns on it and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is this a silver-level treasure chest for city defense?"

He was also quite curious about this silver-level treasure chest with a prefix that appeared for the first time.

'Om! '

In that instant, two silver treasure chests slowly opened, releasing a burst of light.

Then it condensed on Shen Mu's retina and turned into a dialog box.

[Ding! Congratulations! You opened a silver-level treasure chest... a city defense-type silver-level treasure chest.]

[You have obtained——]

[① Ordinary Silver Treasure Chest: Support from Heavy Trebuchet. Effect: A heavy trebuchet operator knows that you are facing an enemy attack, so they are willing to serve you and throw stones the size of a human head at the enemy troops. (Last for a whole battle)]

[② City Defense Silver Treasure Box: This contains a batch of wall panels seized from the Kingdom of Swadia by the Khergit Khanate. Knowing that you are currently facing a city defense battle, we are willing to give you these seized materials. (If you choose to accept, it will cause protests from King Harlaus)]

"Wait?" Just looking at the contents in the dialog box, Shen Mu's expression was a little complicated.

If the first, ordinary silver-level treasure chest opens with a heavy catapult operating team, they will support him, similar to the previous Rhodok sniper crossbowman shooting competition, which can be regarded as support for him.

He was really surprised to find a batch of city wall panels as a reward in the second city defense treasure chest.

And what was unexpected was the so-called protest from King Harlaus.

"But what's the use of this kind of protest?" Shen Mu's expression was a little complicated.

He is not in Calradia.

He would not care about the so-called protest against him by the King of Swadia, who had little influence on him.

"Receive all!" Shen Mu's thoughts communicated with the system on the spot.

'Om! '

As the rules of the Mount and Blade system began to emerge, two special cards suddenly appeared in Shen Mu's mind.

One of them showed the outline of a giant counterweight trebuchet, which was commonly used in the siege and defense battles of the Mount and Blade Warband, and a trebuchet operating team consisting of 10 Swadian light infantry.

The second card shows an additional baffle placed on a continuous city wall.

But before Shen Mu could see the specific outlines of those baffles clearly, the dialog box popped up again.

[Ding! Your behavior has made King Harlaus extremely indignant! He strongly condemns your act of robbing his property! ]

[Ding! King Harlaus said that your relationship with him has deteriorated! ]

"Ah?" Shen Mu looked at the contents in the dialog box, speechless.

This Harlaus... is a bit noisy?
