Realm of Power

On the top of Shatai City, the young adjutant pressed his hands on the cold battlements and looked down, with a trace of nervousness on his face. In the light of the torches under the city, the various flags of the lords and vassals were fluttering in the wind. Like all kinds of colorful flowers, the assembled troops numbered about seven or eight thousand, tied with colorful flowers. The spears with colored ribbons were like the spray on the waves, which looked very spectacular. The adjutant looked ugly and quickly said anxiously to the messenger behind him, "Quick, go and report to your lord, the other party may really want to attack the city." Archie Patus decided that the opponent did not dare to attack the city and had gone back to rest a long time ago, so only the adjutant was on top of the city.

Soon, Archipertus' burly figure appeared on the top of the city. His gray-white one eye scanned the scene below, with a contemptuous grin on his lips. "That woman is really uneasy and unsettling." She knows what method she used to get the lords and vassals of these major families to help her, but among the siege troops spread out, there were only a dozen or so. It can be seen from the temporary long wooden ladder that no one of these lords and vassals wants to be the main attacker, so there is nothing to worry about. If you want to take my Shatai City, you must have at least 20,000 people. The army needs large-scale siege equipment to be able to conquer the city. The number of troops under the city is probably less than 10,000, and it is nothing more than a frightening thing. "

"But what if His Highness Samtamara personally gave the order?" The adjutant looked hesitant. After all, Samtamara is still the Young Highness of the Sam Tribe. It is the duty of the Young Highness to punish the Sam Tribe lords who disobey him. Within the scope of power, even if Shatai City is captured, The various lords in the clan would just treat it as invisible. On the contrary, the failure of Samatamara's siege on the city was quite troublesome. It is unjustifiable for the young prince of his family to be rejected by his own lord. Even Archipertus would be considered a traitor

"It was Sam Tamara who took the initiative to attack Shatai City. I can't blame anyone for the failure. I can't just sit back and wait for death. Even if the news returns to the clan, with the lady covering it, we don't need to worry about anything. On the contrary, if we can If we inflict heavy damage on the other party here, I'm afraid that lady will reward us even more heavily. "Achipatu Si said with an unceremonious sneer, his eyes flickering. He looks rough, but he is actually quite calculated. Otherwise, it would be impossible to include the sand city at the core of Harvey's northern border into the area he manages. Although he is not the core of the Sam tribe member, but also knows that the trend within the clan has changed, and that Young Highness Samathamara is a thing of the past.

"But what if..."

"It's not just in case, why can't you see why the patriarch chose to transfer the Blue Chamber of Commerce back to the country when Sam Tamara was negotiating in the Holy City, and even deliberately revealed the news about him in the Holy City? , This shows that the patriarch himself does not want Samtamara to go back alive." Archipatus curled his lips slightly, and then said slowly, "If Samtamara Mara returned home quietly by herself. Don't mess with me. I just turned a blind eye. The fight for the successor within the clan is so dangerous. I have no intention of getting involved, but who knows that I am lucky. Well, the first time Samathamara returned home, she actually found my Shatai City. This is interesting. I really thought that our Shatai City was made of sand."

"This is Sand City, the core of Harvey's northern territory. I spent so much effort to snatch this piece of fat from many lords, how could I give it away?"

Archipatus glanced at the armies of the lords and vassals who were starting to line up below, and his ferocious mouth was full of contempt. Shatai City could not be captured without large siege equipment. When repairing the original damage, the repair craftsmen After finding the drawings of Shatai City, I realized the reason why Shatai City could be built on the water source. It turned out that the Harvey people chose to fill it with huge rocks. The fortress was built on this high loose soil hill in order to repair the city foundation. The huge stones that paved the city foundation were all transported from more than 20 miles away. This allowed Shatai City to be built not only on the water source but also on the loose soil. It is so stable that even heavy catapults may not be able to shake it. The other party actually wants to use more than a dozen simple wooden ladders to shake Shatai City. It is really ridiculous."

In the darkness, with the night wind blowing against his face, Si Green couldn't help but feel a little tingly in his heart as he looked at the thirty Imperial Thunder Gods that were making final adjustments and the rows of long black metal tubes that were being lifted towards Shatai City. He raised his curious hand and pointed to the left side of Shatai City, asking, "If possible, can all the thunder gods focus on bombarding one location?"

"If adults have such a request, we will try our best to fulfill it!"

The person in charge of debugging was a guard captain who came with the convoy. He looked in the direction that Si Green was pointing and answered in a positive tone. He was wearing mail armor in the style of a caravan guard, but his straight body and every move Every movement is on the surface Obviously he should be a strict imperial officer. Along with the thirty imperial thunder gods, there are more than two hundred so-called guards of the Azure Chamber of Commerce. These chamber of commerce guards are actually imperial soldiers, and they will form the new Azure Chamber of Commerce. Key personnel of the Chamber of Commerce

"Then please aim at the independent stone castle on the left. If I remember correctly, when I was besieging Shatai City, I ordered the excavation of the city foundation there, which eventually caused the city wall to collapse, and then I broke through from there and rushed in. Although it has been repaired, it is absolutely impossible to make the material as strong as before. Unless a big stonemason from my Sam tribe comes, and it will take more than three months, it is impossible to completely repair the entire thing. The gap is restored to its original state," Si Green said calmly.

He is the commander-in-chief of the Sam tribe's own army. When Martin Liya's army surrounded Shatai City, it was actually Si Green who personally commanded it. And after returning, his first target was also placed in Sha Tai City, also because Si Green He knew the defense system of Shatai City very well, and he was so familiar with Shatai City in front of him that even Archipatus in the city could not imagine!

"Understood." The caravan guard captain nodded, raised the observation glass in his hand to confirm the data, and then began to issue orders to Thor.

"Everyone aims at the target on the left, 237 meters in front, 18 degrees to the left, height 4." The cannon barrels of the Imperial Thor in the darkness below began to move in a row towards the left city head of Shatu City. Ten minutes later, the muzzle of the cannon sounded, indicating that everything was ready. The caravan captain struggled to speak the word "start" through his teeth.

"Rumble"

In an instant, a bright flash of fire suddenly erupted. Many unprepared lords and vassals were shaken by the sound of the cannon being ejected like a bolt from the blue. Their faces turned pale and they almost fainted on the spot. The soldiers were caught off guard. , was shocked and threw away the weapon in his hand. This series of explosions tore apart the tranquility of dawn, as if the opposite side was violently shaking at this moment.

Balls of dazzling flames seemed to illuminate the entire vast wilderness

A beautiful and cruel arc was drawn in the sky, and it hit an independent fortress protruding from the left wall of Shatai City. There was a boom... a series of loud noises, which shocked Si Green's face and changed his face. His eardrums were still buzzing. For a few minutes, he couldn't hear anything. He could only vaguely see the flickering light of the fire, like lightning tearing apart the sky, and the slope of the single castle that he pointed at suddenly flashed. The ground erupted into dazzling fire

"Pa"

Although the Dubu seems to be made of stones and is very solid. However, in the face of a series of explosions, these solid stones are like children's toy building blocks, shattering one after another. It's like some kind of outer skin has been exploded. , the solitary fortress that originally looked like a stone was actually blown up in half in the explosion. At this time, everyone saw clearly in the explosion fire that half of the fortress was blown away. In fact, only the outer layer of the independent fort in the sky was made of stone, but the inside was made of various supports. The whole thing flew into the air, causing countless rubbles to fall down like rain. The defenders below were The ground was in a mess. After the screams, screams, and gunpowder smoke cleared away, Dubao could only see a few protrusions. The area was in a mess, and no intact structures could be seen anymore.

"Oh My God!"

"Thunder God, it's the Imperial Thunder God!" The lords and vassals below the city who were just watching the fun were dumbfounded. They lay on the ground in fright, and couldn't help but open their mouths. They looked in disbelief at the solid Shatai City being so completely destroyed. A piece was knocked off. Is this the strength of the Blue Chamber of Commerce? It can even smuggle weapons like the Imperial Thunder God! "Martin Liya Lords all know that the Blue Chamber of Commerce in Samatamara is the largest smuggling chamber in Barro in southern Europe, but no one thinks that the Blue Chamber of Commerce can get the Thor who has been swept across the world by the imperial army, and they can do it in one go. There were so many... The vassal army next to them was swaying even more, lying on the ground.

Ordinary Martin Liya soldiers had never seen Thor before. The deafening sound rushed directly towards them. The light of the explosion blinded their eyes. The rocks scattered in the explosion flew around. Oh my God, what kind of weapon is this? How could it be so destructive? For a moment, the entire city of Shatai was still.

Everyone watched the fireball with its long black tail passing through a perfect arc in the dark night sky. The remaining firelight from its tail cut through the night sky, passing like a meteor, and then landed on the top of Shatai City. Up, it exploded with a bang-dong-dong sound, and a ball of Dazzling firelight, countless firelights intertwined layer by layer, one after another, continuous, illuminating the night sky with white snow, the continuous bombardment started at four o'clock in the morning and continued for two hours until morning It stopped at six o'clock. At this time, the sky was not completely bright yet, and the earth was still gray, but everyone could see that half of the left side of Shatai City had been cut off, and a section of the city wall collapsed, exposing thirty meters. Although there were not many casualties among the defenders on top of the city due to the wide gap, their faces were ashen and they hid behind the battlements without even daring to show their heads. The deafening sound that had been roaring for two hours finally stopped.

The sturdy lord of the Sam clan was also in a state of embarrassment at the moment. The fierce bombardment of the Thunder God seemed to have swept the earth washed by a tornado. The irregular and curved city wall of Shatai City was very narrow at the top, but very thick at the bottom. It is wide and looks very strong, but it is hollow inside. After all, it is built on the loose soil of the water source. Although it is used The huge rocks built the foundation, but they were unable to withstand the tilt of the ground. More than a thousand thunder bullets smashed the left side of Shatai City into a sieve. Not only did a section of the city wall collapse, but many thunder bullets passed over the city wall. The residential area inside exploded, dozens of black smoke rose into the sky, and even flames flickered, making Shatai City look like a purgatory on earth.

After resting for an hour, in the dim light of the sky, the Imperial Thor started a more violent bombardment again. The target of this bombardment was changed to the inside of Shatai City. One after another, the artillery shells flew over the heads of the defenders, forming a line in the bright sky. The water continued to fall into the city wall. At this time, it was almost impossible to distinguish the clusters of fire when each shell exploded. Only layers of fire could be seen. But at this moment, the defenders on the city wall were obviously in chaos. The city was filled with their families. If they attacked the city wall, they could still block it with all their strength. However, the opponent directly bombarded the residential area in the city, and the defenders on the city wall ran back to put out the fire.

"Sir Si Green, the city defenses are in ruins and the morale of the soldiers has dropped sharply. If we attack at this time, for example, we can capture Shatai City in one fell swoop."

A vassal lord said to Si Green with eagerness on his face. The Imperial Thunder God made everyone's confidence explode. If they were not worried that the Thunder God would blow themselves up, these vassal lords would have rushed in long ago. Who doesn't know? Archipatus regarded Sand City as a cash cow and levied heavy taxes on various teams passing through the border. It can be said that the most powerful city in the north of Harvey It is a fat territory. It is rumored that Archipertus has accumulated considerable wealth in Sand City, otherwise he would not be in charge of it personally. With such a big piece of fat, naturally whoever rushes in and grabs it will belong to whom, even if this is Sam In the city of the tribe, Samtamara has no right to stop them, because according to tradition, this is the reward they should receive for assisting Samtamara.

Regarding the thoughts of these jackals, tigers and leopards, Si Green looked calm and knew very well in his heart that if these vassal lords were really allowed to run into Shatai City, Shatai City would be really destroyed. "Don't be impatient, the light will illuminate the sky." , you can go in."

"Okay." The lords and vassals raised their heads and looked at the sky in the east. It had begun to turn white. It would light up in an hour at most.

"Look, the gate of Shatai City has opened." At this moment, someone suddenly pointed in the direction of Shatai City and shouted. Everyone quickly looked over and saw that the gate of Shatai City was slowly opening from the inside. Several disgraced Sam army officers came out holding a plate with a bloody human head on it.

"It was Archipatus who disobeyed His Highness and was attacked and killed by us. Please, Your Highness, for the sake of being members of the Sam tribe, please save our Shatai City," several officers shouted loudly, raising their hands at the same time. Start the wooden plate in your hand

"Archipatus is dead?" Siglin looked stunned. After scanning his eyes, he slightly nodded to Samtamara who was in a daze. That was indeed the head of Archipatus. Unexpectedly, this worshiper The brutal lord of the Blood God was eventually attacked and killed by his own men.
