A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

#105 - The enemy army began to attack the city

"That was clearly spoils of war that the Khergit Khanate seized and then gifted to me."

Shen Mu's face showed a hint of helplessness.

Now that it was in his hands, he couldn't really return it, could he?

At this moment, a new dialog box appeared on Shen Mu's retina.

[Ding! Detecting that you are about to enter siege defense mode, do you want to deploy 'Wall Panels'?]

This made Shen Mu raise his eyebrows slightly: "Here it comes?"

He turned his head to look out the window.

Of course, what appeared before him now was just the walls of the noble's residence outside the window.

But Shen Mu knew that to the west of this town, Dhirim, was the fully mobilized force organized by Diesel Corporation, emerging from the rammed earth walls of the Orc tribe, ready to completely eliminate his Swinefolk troops!

"Deploy Wall Panels!" Shen Mu made the decision without hesitation.

'Buzz!'

As Shen Mu communicated with the system, streams of data instantly surged from between his eyebrows.

They quickly condensed and intertwined, spreading in mid-air, and whistling through the nearby window, falling onto the thin town walls and the walls of the Rhodok castle.

Countless data streams began to intertwine, condensing with each other, and materializing into huge wooden boards, each 2 meters high and 3 meters wide, in a flash of white light.

They were all made of neatly arranged long planks nailed tightly together and reinforced with thick wooden strips.

The overall thickness reached two finger-widths.

Supported by several thick wooden poles, they formed a slightly inclined angled triangle with the base.

They were effective in blocking arrows or stray arrows shot from below the city walls, even small stones thrown by slings, and javelins fired from close range below.

Moreover, four windows, about the size of a human head, were opened between these baffles.

When opened outwards and propped up, they became shooting ports.

Both archers and crossbowmen could use these small windows to remotely shoot at the enemies outside the city walls, killing enemies who dared to approach within range.

And they could also rely on the cover of these baffles to shoot back at the enemy's ranged shooters with more confidence.

Moreover, even patrolling infantry could rely on these 2-meter-high baffles to quickly move behind them without worrying about being sniped by accurate enemy shooters outside.

And when the enemy approached the city walls, intending to attack, they could rely on the 6-meter-high city walls, plus these 2-meter-high baffles, adding up to a height of 8 meters, making it even more difficult for the enemy to climb up, further increasing the difficulty of the siege.

In other words, it enhanced their defense of the city walls, allowing them to hold out longer.

Moreover, not only on the city walls.

Even the top of the city gates in the town area, the top of the square tower, and the city walls and gates in the castle area, as well as the tops of the stone towers, were equipped with these wall panels.

In just an instant, as the white light disappeared, the defense effect of the entire castle and town was raised to a new level!

"Next, we just wait for those Swinefolk from Diesel Corporation to come."

Shen Mu then picked up the honey milk on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

His face was calm.

He also felt a little regret: "It's a pity that I still can't use the designated troop instant upgrade item."

After all, this reward of a designated troop upgrade item for 200 people was prepared by Shen Mu for those 200 Veagir recruits.

Now the recruits have indeed been upgraded.

However, they still need extra experience and denars to upgrade to Veagir light infantry.

"30 denars per person, 200 tier 1 Veagir recruits, wanting to upgrade to tier 2 Veagir light infantry, that would require a full 6,000 denars in upgrade fees."

Shen Mu just thought about this concept and felt a slight throbbing in his temples.

Especially looking at his savings, which he had managed to increase by another 2,000 denars.

He pursed his lips and still made a decision.

"Forget it, I'll upgrade 20 Swadian knights instead."

That's what Shen Mu thought, and that's how he arranged it.

Following the thought communication system.

'Buzz!'

A stream of data surged directly from between Shen Mu's eyebrows, rushing out of the noble's residence again.

Then it landed on the 20 Swadian light infantry who were originally guarding the gate in the town area.

Advancement begins!

The white light flashed for more than ten seconds, and when the white light disappeared from the originally thin Swadian light infantry.

They directly transformed into 20 burly Swadian knights, wearing heavy armor, flat-topped helmets, holding lances, with hand-and-a-half swords at their waists, carrying kite shields on their backs and flanged maces hanging at their waists, spirited and extremely burly!

'Clang clang clang!'

Of course, accompanied by the advancement of these 20 Swadian light infantry into 20 Swadian knights.

The sound of metal coins colliding with each other appeared.

The original 2000+ denars.

Now.

It turned into a pitiful two digits again.

"It's really a bit... slightly helpless." Shen Mu showed a wry smile at this.

But there was no other way.

Being able to directly advance from light infantry to heavy cavalry is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying improvement.

This is a qualitative change.

After all, the Swadian knights are wearing chainmail, flat-topped helmets, holding lances and hand-and-a-half swords and flanged maces, plus kite shields.

The defensive power of this equipment is simply comparable to that of two light infantry.

What's more, the heavy cavalry is still cavalry, equipped with Swadian warhorses, and warhorse armor also made of chainmail.

If they really charge.

I'm afraid that 6 Swadian light infantry would hardly be able to compete with 1 Swadian knight.

After all, the strongest title among the tier 4 heavy cavalry is definitely not bragging.

Even the mounted people, the Khergit Khanate's tier 4 shock lancers, known as the most lethal tier 4 lancers, are prone to being shot down by archers and crossbowmen from a distance because the warhorses under their crotches are not armored, and they don't have much advantage in melee combat.

So, in terms of the role of charging and breaking through, the Swadian knights are still better!

What's more, if a cluster charge of heavy cavalry is formed.

The more Swadian knights there are.

Then the combat power...

The stronger it is!

This is an undeniable thing.

Now Shen Mu is upgrading more heavy cavalry because he believes in the great role this type of troop can play on plain-type battlefields!

"If it really comes to the point where melee soldiers are needed on the city walls, these Swadian knights can barely be used as infantry."

Shen Mu also thought of this.

Thinking of the equipment on these Swadian knights, Shen Mu also slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "I just hope that such a situation will not happen."

Heavy cavalry can fight on foot.

After all, this is a real world. After dismounting, the pike formation can still be set up.

Shield walls can also be lined up.

Even if they are required to charge forward on foot, whether using a hand-and-a-half sword or a flanged mace, they can still form a powerful combat force with this heavy armor.

It's just that compared to those Swadian infantry, the real tier 4 infantry.

These infantry often hone their foot combat skills, know how to better protect themselves in foot combat, kill enemies faster, break through enemy lines more powerfully, and more effectively prevent enemies from breaking through themselves.

There is help in terms of proficiency and experience.

It's the same as once on horseback, how to charge the enemy's formation, how to line up the cavalry wall, and how to joust more proficiently.

Each has its own advantages.

But if it really comes to a critical moment, letting the Swadian knights play the role of Swadian infantry is not impossible for this tier 4 troop.

At least for Shen Mu.

Now, in order to welcome those guests from the Diesel Corporation who have come from afar.

He has really exhausted his thoughts!

......

In the desert area where Diesel Corporation is located, Fu Jian, who is the commander at this time, is already full of angry bloodshot eyes because of the sneak attack just now.

"Why is this happening? Why are there so many cavalry? And human heavy cavalry!?"

Fu Jian let out an angry roar.

A pair of thick, fat hands suddenly grabbed the chainmail collar of the financier in front of him, roaring angrily: "They! Even have heavy cavalry!!!"

"I... I don't know! Brother Fu Jian! I really don't know!"

Zhang Cai Dong waved his hands in horror.

His face was full of fear.

Although he did know.

Moreover, in the corridor of that apartment, he had also seen several heavy cavalrymen, their heads touching the ceiling, shoulder to shoulder, charging with lances, crushing the previous convoy captain, Wu Hu, to death.

Now, Zhang Caidong would never admit it, pretending to be extremely innocent: "I really don't know... If I knew, I would have told you immediately, Brother Fu Jian! I rely on you to secure my position as the convoy captain!"

This analysis makes sense.

Fu Jian glanced at the front, at the pig-headed men wailing everywhere, and the servant army composed of spirit world creatures, his face becoming even more unsightly.

"Damn it!" Fu Jian only glanced at them and realized that the casualties of his pig-headed men should have exceeded 300.

Moreover, the servant army composed of spirit world creatures had also lost about 200 men.

It could be said that they hadn't even entered the enemy's territory yet.

And one-fifth of their forces had already been wiped out!

For Fu Jian, who was serving as the commander of the Diesel Company's expeditionary force for the first time, this was undoubtedly a humiliating slap in the face!

Fu Jian didn't even know what kind of punishment he would receive if this matter reached the general manager's ears.

So he couldn't help but clench his teeth, directly let go, and released Zhang Caidong's collar.

He breathed heavily, and said in a deep voice: "This time, I was a little emotionally out of control, Brother Caidong, you are a good person, I still understand that."

"Brother Fu Jian, tell me, is there anything I can help with!" Zhang Caidong heard the meaning in his words, so he didn't care about his embarrassed appearance just now, when he was grabbed by the collar, but patted his chest, and said decisively like a loyal hero: "As long as I can help, then I, your brother, will definitely not hesitate!"

"Well, brother, you are very good." Fu Jian nodded when he saw Zhang Caidong's appearance, and a trace of emotion appeared in his eyes.

So he patted Zhang Caidong on the shoulder and said very seriously: "Then, you are now the deputy commander. You will lead the temporary workers in those temporary convoys and let them lead their followers to explore the road ahead. Can you do it?"

"Of course, I can do it!" Zhang Caidong agreed as if he didn't care about anything.

He didn't hesitate at all.

While speaking, when he agreed, there was not even a trace of tremor in his voice.

"Good, good, good." At this time, Fu Jian's fat face showed a bit more approval.

As if subconsciously, he snorted like a pig, Fu Jian looked at Zhang Caidong, who had no opinion on his face, and said: "After this is over, you will stay by my side. Although you are not an old man from the Diesel Company era, over time, people's hearts can be seen over time, and you will be recognized by us."

"Thank you, Brother Fu Jian, Caidong will never forget your kindness in promoting me!"

At this time, Zhang Caidong suddenly showed a moved expression, and after thanking him again, he turned around and went to integrate the temporary workers in those temporary convoys, as well as their spirit world creature followers, according to Fu Jian's request.

It's just that at the moment of turning around, when everyone didn't see clearly.

Zhang Caidong's slightly lowered eyebrows showed a hint of sternness from the depths of his soul.

Mixed with ruthlessness and resentment, it was extremely terrifying!

He, Zhang Caidong, is not a good person.

The fact that he had been wandering outside for more than two years before joining the Diesel Company more than half a year ago already showed how strong his methods and how high his skills were.

Moreover, Zhang Caidong's ambition is also very high!

"In the past, when I ran a hotel and billiard hall in Chenzhong Village, no one dared to grab my collar." Zhang Caidong's heart became more and more distorted.

Thinking of the humiliation he had endured since the arrival of the Necromantic Rules, and his desire to become a member of the Diesel Company's management.

Still made him choose to endure it.

Once upon a time, Zhang Caidong knew that the so-called mixing in society was really just mixing in the lower-class society.

If you really want to stand out, you can only climb to a higher level!

Zhang Caidong was fed up with mixing at the bottom.

He wanted to go to a higher place to see!

Especially in this new era when the Necromantic Rules have destroyed the order of the Blue Star world!

"Becoming the commander of the temporary convoys, these beastman tribe servant armies, is the most crucial step for me to climb up."

Zhang Caidong looked at those guys who had already received the news and looked at him respectfully.

There were also some guys who used to be in the temporary convoy with him, who were harsh to him, and whose noses were not noses and eyes were not eyes.

The feeling brought by power made Zhang Caidong more and more comfortable.

"Let's go, let's go explore the road ahead together." It's just that Zhang Caidong smiled and took the initiative to invite the few Blue Star humans who used to look down on him, the captains of the temporary convoys: "Brother Fu Jian said, if we complete the task well this time, and can help get through the thunder, when we return to the Diesel Company, we will be commended!"

"Oh, Brother Caidong, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with Commander Fu Jian? Then in the future, brother will listen to your orders!"

"In the past, we brothers didn't see your ability, Brother Caidong. We didn't associate with you enough. Now we really regret it!"

"It's not too late to associate with Brother Caidong now! Everyone came from the temporary convoy. If Brother Caidong has anything to do, doesn't he still have to find us brothers first? This shows that he has us in his heart!"

These captains of the temporary convoys began to flatter Zhang Caidong one by one.

Zhang Caidong also responded seemingly modestly.

"It's all thanks to Brother Fu Jian's good arrangements. I helped a little bit in the past and caught Brother Fu Jian's eye."

"No problem, after this is over, go to Brother Fu Jian's tent to report on the work."

"I'll lead the way! We are all Brother Fu Jian's people, and we are all following Brother Fu Jian, so we must not talk nonsense!"

"Then our brothers won't say much, let the others walk in front, and we'll be behind."

Zhang Caidong also inadvertently tied himself and Fu Jian together.

Let these captains of the temporary convoys, who didn't understand the truth of the matter at all, start to mutter in their hearts.

But on their faces, there was a lot more flattery.

After all, the one responsible for commanding them, these temporary convoys, is Zhang Caidong!

Now letting them go to explore the road ahead is obviously to prevent the new human leader from leading cavalry to attack them again.

Of course, the nice way to say it is indeed to explore the road.

But the harsh way to say it...

This is clearly letting them use their lives to help those official employees of the Diesel Company find a safe path!

If they don't have a good relationship with this Zhang Caidong.

Let their subordinates, those followers who have worked so hard to summon one by one from the spirit world scene, die so easily.

That would be enough to hurt them!

So, as Zhang Caidong's order was issued, those guys who didn't have a very good relationship, and didn't have any value, just some ordinary temporary workers, took their spirit world creatures to scout.

Zhang Caidong, on the other hand, under the flattery of these captains of the temporary convoys around him, had them be with him.

Invisibly, a power system was formed with him as the center, these captains of the temporary convoys as the backbone, and those ordinary temporary workers on the periphery as the bottom.

And it was a power system that those official employees of the Diesel Company disdained to organize.

It was taken into his hands by Zhang Caidong, who was pretending to be powerful.

"That's right, that's how it is." Zhang Caidong's mood became more and more distorted and excited.

Although he knew that this power was temporary, once he climbed higher, then these temporary workers who originally wanted to attach themselves to the official employees of the Diesel Company would all attach themselves to him without hesitation.

But Zhang Caidong was still extremely excited.

"Let's go."

Looking at the street ahead that was still silent, Zhang Caidong waved forward.

Let the scouts continue to move forward.

Then he arranged for his jackal men to report the situation to Fu Jian, the commander who was nearly 500 meters away from him.

Earning goodwill from both sides.

It was quite comfortable.

"It's really lucky that I caught up, that human didn't lead the cavalry to attack again."

At this time, Zhang Caidong looked at the street area ahead, knowing that if he went further, it would be the apartment building he had encountered before, the area of that new human territory.

The corners of his mouth became more and more excited.

Just as he was about to say something to these people around him, but as he raised his eyelids and glanced forward.

His entire face froze slightly: "Wait?" Zhang Caidong seemed to notice something was wrong and couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

He looked again at the empty space in front of him where, in his memory, four apartment buildings should have stood.

He was utterly astonished: "Where are those four huge... apartment buildings?"

Zhang Caidong would swear that, before, there definitely should have been apartment buildings there!

......

When Zhang Caidong led the thrall army to arrive first, Shen Mu noticed them.

Because at this time, Shen Mu had come to the top of the Rhodok castle, stood on the scaffolding, held onto the barrier in front of him, and was observing towards the west.

Taking advantage of the height, when the enemy's troops appeared on the main road within visible range,

Shen Mu immediately noticed.

"Send the message, the enemy has arrived, prepare for battle," Shen Mu said in a deep voice.

"Yes," a Swadian servant responsible for conveying orders immediately responded, turned and left the scaffolding and the top of the tower, and went down the spiral staircase to begin conveying Shen Mu's orders.

Before long, the castle area and town area, which were already outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense, responded.

And the focus of the defense was heavily shifted to the west wall.

"Hurry, hurry, move faster!"

Bandak was still directing the Viki recruits, moving two light ballistae, and two siege ballistae that Shen Mu had previously obtained from rewards, to be placed on the towers.

The light ballistae were still the old model, capable of launching spears more than 200 meters away, with great power.

The siege ballistae, on the other hand, were a type of medium-sized ballista, capable of launching spears more than 300 meters away, and were more accurate and powerful, even able to nail spears into rammed earth walls, and even collapse thin stone walls the width of a palm.

Otherwise, they would not be called siege ballistae.

However, in defense, these siege ballistae, with their long range and great destructive power, could not only kill enemies,

but also destroy enemy siege equipment and delay the enemy's siege time.

They were considered quite good weapons.

Now, two light ballistae were each set up at the top of the east and west town gates.

Directly aimed at the enemies outside who might attack the city gates.

The two siege ballistae were set up at the junction of the castle area and the town area, at the top of the two square towers built there.

Although these two square towers were built on the town area's walls, because they were backed by the protruding rock base of the castle area, Shen Mu opened a small hole in the castle wall, with stairs extending down, just enough to transfer through this small hole.

If the enemy occupied the town area's walls, the defenders on the walls could enter the castle area through this sloping staircase.

And blocking this passage with wooden boards was equivalent to sealing off the traffic between the castle area and the town area.

Anyone who wanted to attack the castle area's walls through this place would not only need to climb up the steep stairs and destroy the blocking wooden boards,

but also face the most accurate shooting from above, by the ranged archers stationed in the large tower that was just built in the southwest corner of the castle area!

And the same configuration was on the east side.

It's just that the southeast corner wasn't a large tower, but a Holy Light Torch Tower that could also station ranged archers.

It could also allow ranged archers to provide long-range killing support to the east gate and the east wall from a high position, and strike at enemies attempting to attack the city gate and the wall.

Shen Mu was indeed not good at combat.

But as a programmer, and also a game designer, and also a veteran player who often frequented military forums and liked management games.

He knew very well how to build his castle and how to take advantage of the firing points.

He was simply too good at it!

"Now, it's just waiting for those Diesel Company guys to choose which city gate to launch their main attack on."

Shen Mu stood on the scaffolding, turned his head to look at the infantry and cavalry in the town area that had already lined up, and the archers and crossbowmen who had already been stationed in their respective positions on the walls and square towers, his face calm.

100 Viki archers, 50 mercenary crossbowmen, 50 Rhodok skilled crossbowmen.

These were all ranged archers.

In addition to 50 Lake Rat Gang Destroyers, 100 Lake Rat Gang Veteran Thugs, these throwing infantry who could throw javelins and also cause damage to enemies 20 meters away.

Coupled with 4 ballistae, and the 'Catapult Support' that Shen Mu hadn't used in his mind.

Anyone who saw this would feel calm!

For the upcoming battle, Shen Mu, who still had the worst-case scenario in mind, didn't think that it would really enter the worst-case scenario plan.

"Sir, those guys are coming," a Swadian light infantryman reminded him beside Shen Mu.

"Yes, I see them," Shen Mu nodded.

He slowly narrowed his eyes and looked.

On the main road outside the west wall, a group of jackals, earth goblins, bear goblins, lizardmen, and other sub-human races common in the desert had already sneaked over.

This group of thrall troops didn't dare to take the wide main road, but instead climbed over the walls from the residential areas on both sides of the road, and their movements forward were extremely cautious.

They were afraid that cavalry or other troops would launch a sneak attack or raid on them.

Obviously, Shen Mu's previous actions had scared these thrall troops who had never experienced such a sudden heavy cavalry raid.

After all, when they were in the Phantasy-side Crystal Wall System, they were just a group of robber races living in the desert area.

Although they occasionally had some conflicts with the Lion Principality of the human race, the battles were still very rare.

They just occasionally went to rob some food, and basically wouldn't encounter such elite human heavy cavalry troops.

But precisely now, they had encountered them.

Even the pig-headed men, who were famous for their foot battles in the orc tribe, had been swept away by these human heavy cavalry troops, suffering heavy casualties. How could this not make the spiritual creatures of various races in these thrall troops feel frightened?

This was the reason why these thrall troops didn't choose to take the main road.

Instead, they climbed over the residential area's fences or low walls one by one, even if it was more troublesome, they were willing to walk from here for safety.

Finally, they came to the open flat ground in front, the edge bordering the city.

And finally saw the towering castle, the walls, and the town with complete protective measures that appeared in that plain.

There were no apartments at all!

"Brother Caidong, that human race's new territory seems to be a bit strange."

"That's right, we don't have any siege methods, so rushing up like this is just suicide!"

"Let's tell those Diesel Company people about this and let them make the decision. We're just temporary workers, so let's not go forward with this."

Beside Zhang Caidong, the faces of the temporary convoy captains were extremely complicated at this time.

There was no way around it.

Although they were all Blue Star humans, they also had some understanding of war.

They didn't have any siege weapons or siege equipment at hand, so relying entirely on their spiritual followers to attack a complete wall defense system was completely stupid behavior that would lead to death in vain!

And these temporary convoy captains, one by one, were able to secure their positions as captains because of their spiritual followers.

If they lost their spiritual followers and suffered heavy losses,

perhaps the Diesel Company would directly dismiss them from their positions as captains and then randomly assign the position to someone else.

"Brothers, when we came, Brother Fu Jian said that we had to solve any difficulties ourselves," Zhang Caidong looked at these temporary convoy captains who were obviously trying to be slippery and didn't even want to test the wall to see how strong its defenses were, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Zhang Caidong still seemed as easy to talk to as before.

But after he really started speaking, he had a cold tone that didn't allow them to explain: "This time we came to get rid of this human race's new lord. If you all don't contribute, then how am I supposed to report your merits to Brother Fu Jian when we go back?"

The words were simple.

But everyone present heard the threat in Zhang Caidong's words.

If they didn't report any merits, then wouldn't that mean they would be complaining?

They didn't follow orders, leading to the failure of the battle.

Once this scapegoat is pinned on their heads, based on their understanding of the Diesel Company, it will definitely make their lives a living hell!

Even in the past, temporary workers in this situation, regardless of their identity, would have their spirit realm followers killed and turned into fresh meat snacks for those elite pig-headed orcs!

The Diesel Company has never been one to appreciate explanations.

They only care about results!

"Oink! Oink!" Just as they were discussing how to tentatively attack and see how effective the defense of each human soldier on the city wall was,

the sound of oinking came from behind.

Then four or five pig-headed orcs walked over quickly, their faces filled with anger, and shouted loudly, "Commander Fu Jian, why are you still here and haven't chosen to attack that castle?"

As they spoke, they looked at Zhang Caidong and pointed directly at him, saying, "Fu Jian has ordered that you arrange for people to find something to fill the moat in front of the city gate! And something to climb up the city wall! Do you understand!?"

"Moat? Fill it?" Zhang Caidong was slightly stunned at this moment and subconsciously turned his head to look at the castle.

When his gaze focused on the direction of the city gate, he noticed a continuous shadow in front of the entire city wall, which was actually a long moat!

He didn't know how deep it was, but looking at the width of about a few meters, he knew that it would definitely hinder their siege.

"I understand." Zhang Caidong nodded immediately and said to the four or five pig-headed orcs with a solemn expression, "Please go back and tell Commander Fu Jian that I will arrange for people to fill the moat in front immediately, and I will definitely not make things difficult for Brother Fu Jian."

"It's good that you understand." These pig-headed orcs snorted, not caring about Zhang Caidong's response or solemn appearance, and turned to leave.

They were just here to convey orders, and once they were conveyed, they would go back.

Looking at these inferior fellows, whether they were gnolls or goblins, or lizardmen, they were all inferior races without even a tribe, not worth mentioning compared to their pig-headed orcs who had already rebuilt their territory.

As for the human castle outside, these pig-headed orcs scoffed at it.

Back when their beastman tribe went to war with the Lionheart Principality of humans, they had captured such castles and city walls before.

Although most of the territory that the Lionheart Principality had opened up to the west belonged to their beastman tribe, they were forced to leave in the face of the human principality's cavalry and the endless attacks of spearmen.

But the beastman tribe, which still had most of its strength accumulated, and their pig-headed orc tribe, did not believe that they could not capture even a single castle!

At this time, Fu Jian was standing on the roof of a residential building in the back.

Looking into the distance at the castle and town standing on that plain several miles away, as well as the human troops within, already lined up as if waiting for him, his face was a little unsightly.

"Brother Jian, this situation is not right."

Beside Fu Jian, a fat man who was also a Blue Star human opened his mouth and said, "It's not an apartment, but a castle. This means that the guy who obtained the human lord's mark has received some kind of opportunity and summoned the castle down from the astral realm."

"Yeah, the situation is really not right." Fu Jian nodded lightly.

But at this time, he was already gritting his teeth as if he were riding a tiger and asked, "Do you think if we forcibly attack the city, can we rush in?"

"It looks a little difficult."

The fat man next to him had a good relationship with Fu Jian, so he said in a deep voice at this time, "Why don't we go back and find some siege equipment and then come back to attack?"

"No."

Fu Jian frowned at this time and directly rejected his suggestion, "Those old guys were already dissatisfied with me being the commander-in-chief. Just after leaving the city gate, they were ambushed by those human heavy cavalry and suffered heavy losses. Now that we're going back without accomplishing anything, I don't think we'll be able to explain it to the general manager."

He didn't say much, but the two people present were clear that if he lost the general manager's trust, then no matter what achievements he made in the future, he would have to stand aside.

"Brother Fu, how about we collect something from the surrounding area and make some simple siege equipment ourselves?" This person said again, "I see that there are some supermarkets and hardware stores around, and there might be ladders or something that can be used."

As he spoke, his tone became more and more solemn, "If it really doesn't work, find some furniture or something to throw on the city wall. After all, the human lord's city wall is only about six or seven meters high. As long as we can climb up and let the pig-headed orcs under our command rush up, in close combat, the humans of the spirit realm are no match for these beastman pig-headed orcs!"

"Yeah, that's true." Fu Jian nodded, looked at his old friend who he had known before, and his tone relaxed a lot, "Then the matter of finding ladders will be arranged for you."

"I'll go do it now." This person turned around and was about to leave.

However, after taking two steps, he seemed to have thought of something again and said to Fu Jian, "By the way, Brother Fu, now that we have this time, why not let those temporary workers fill up the moat first, and also that Zhang Caidong, let him organize a group of spirit realm creatures that are more fierce in close combat, and when the moat is filled, let him lead the team to attack the city in the first wave."

"Yeah, let's do it according to this." Fu Jian adopted his suggestion.

If they didn't want to go back to the beastman tribe and face the ridicule and questioning of others, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find siege equipment.

Then now, finding some Blue Star tools to use temporarily is not impossible.

The spirit realm followers under their command are those who have already completed the contract.

They have already integrated some of the Blue Star rules and are able to use Blue Star tools, and do not have the ability to easily destroy Blue Star creations like those terrifying undead monsters.

So, some of Blue Star's resources can still be used normally.

Soon, these pig-headed orcs found many maintenance ladders or tool ladders.

And there were also many cabinets or work tables and other things.

Obviously, they were used to fill the moat, or to build a ramp on the city wall so that they could climb up and fight the enemy on the city wall.

In front of these pig-headed orcs.

Those servant troops who were closer to the city wall at this time also found a lot of dead branches and leaves from the surrounding area, as well as many tables and chairs moved from nearby residential areas.

They were all piled up randomly in a community green belt.

There were a lot of them.

And not far from Zhang Caidong, an even larger number of servant troops, nearly 1,500 spirit realm races gathered together, at this time also began to move forward, each picking up a piece of furniture, holding it on their heads, and began to run forward.

"Throw the things in your hands into the moat, and you will have completed the task, otherwise anyone who dares to retreat will be killed directly and fed to those pig-headed orcs!"

Zhang Caidong spoke, his tone extremely cold, "Don't think about being lazy!"

Not far away, the captains of those temporary teams also led their followers, drew their weapons, and aimed them at those temporary workers who were temporarily assembled in the temporary teams, as well as their spirit realm followers.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to everyone!
