Chapter 2 Seizing the City

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The army of wing tribesmen captured the dock effortlessly.

The defenders near the dock were no match for them. As soon as they took out the sword from their waist, they were knocked to the ground by the oncoming arrows.

Those Wing tribesmen occupy a high altitude advantage and can attack the targets at their feet unscrupulously.

However, not many of the empire's soldiers carry bows and arrows when patrolling, and the few archers become the targets of attack by the Wing Clan warriors as soon as they appear.

In addition, it was not easy for them to shoot the enemies above their heads. Therefore, in the first wave of battle between the two sides, the Wing Tribesmen won with an overwhelming advantage.

The entire battle lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and the empire lost four teams, nearly fifty people.

On the other hand, only two of the Yi clan members were slightly injured, and one of them was accidentally attacked by a merchant ship guard and injured his arm.

The Wing Clan people pulled out the guard from the crowd, and then a Wing Clan warrior stepped forward, grabbed one of the man's legs, spread his wings again, and rushed into the sky.

He flew very high, as high as four giant Poseidon statues, and then let go of his hand.

The guard let out a scream, fell straight down, and turned into a puddle of flesh with a loud bang.

The crowd was stunned by this cruel and bloody scene, and fell into a dead silence.

But I have to say that this method is indeed very effective. After that, no one dared to attack those Wing Clan members secretly.

And after they took control of the dock, they actually didn't move forward.

Except for a small number of people who remained in the sky, responsible for guarding and cleaning up the imperial team trying to approach here, the rest of the people fell to the ground and rested on the spot.

It was only then that the people on the dock realized that all the Wing Clan members looked dusty and tired.

Some people even found a random place and fell asleep after landing.

This gave the survivors on the dock another glimmer of hope.

It is taboo for military strategists to carry out expeditions. Although these Wing tribesmen flew to the continent of Bratis, they obviously paid a lot of price.

In order to reduce weight as much as possible, they did not wear armor, and only carried daggers and bows as weapons, and they did not lose many arrows, about ten per person.

In addition, the food and water on him seemed to have been exhausted. No wonder he did not continue to capture other places after seizing the dock.

If the nobles of Crab Point can quickly gather a garrison at this time, they may have a chance to defeat these invaders, or at least drive away these barbaric guys with wings behind them.

However, everyone waited and saw no reinforcements from the empire, and only saw a cavalry coming towards here.

The cavalryman was alone with no companions. His silhouette in the sun looked a little lonely and sad.

While running, he also raised his right hand, with the five fingers slightly bent, the thumb pointing up and the four pointing down, making a strange hand shape.

The next moment, a miracle happened. The Wing Clan people in the sky did not attack him, and just let him run in front of the army.

The cavalryman jumped off his horse, then took off his particularly heavy armor, revealing a pair of wings behind him.

He walked up to a man with white hair, even the hair on his neck, who had a pair of huge gray wings, rubbed the latter's neck, and said respectfully.

"Lord Solomon, welcome to your hunting ground."

"Your name is... Yasu, right? You come from the Red-breasted Tribe. I remember you were one of the first people to lurk on this continent. You came here seven years ago, right?"

"For eight years, I have been quietly observing the people here and learned their language and customs." Yaxu said.

"I also made friends with many nobles, carefully studied their likes and dislikes, and persuaded some of them to join us."

"By the way, the armory is now in our hands, but we need you to send people to support us. The Kant family alone cannot stop the garrison for too long."

"Got it." Solomon nodded, "I'll send someone over right now. Is there any food?"

"It is easy to attract attention by hoarding food on a large scale, and I only know that the army will arrive in the near future, but I don't know the specific time of your arrival, so I have no food prepared.

"But it doesn't matter, we can just go to the market and grab it. There is a lot of food there."

"Very good." Solomon didn't like to talk nonsense and said directly, "After we get our weapons and have enough food, we will go see the owner here and kill him to give a warning to other people in the city."

"If there are any families who plan to resist us, kill them too and tell the people here that this land is going to have a new owner."

"As commanded."

Ashur had just finished speaking the last word, but suddenly he saw Solomon punch him.

A look of astonishment appeared on the face of the warrior of the Red-Breasted Tribe, wondering why the good Solomon would suddenly attack him.

Moreover, the punch was not light, and he was knocked upside down.

At the same time, Solomon himself spread out the huge wings on his back, stamped his feet on the ground, and jumped into the air.

The next moment, Yasu saw a huge crossbow arrow, nearly as thick as his forearm, hitting the place where the two were standing, creating a deep crater there!

The dust was flying, and Asu felt his cheek hurt, but it was scratched by the scattered stones.

But because Solomon knocked him away in time, he finally saved his life.

"What is that?" Solomon frowned and looked in the direction of the huge crossbow arrow.

Yasu, who was still in shock, swallowed a mouthful of saliva before continuing.

"That's the Sea King's Halberd, a giant crossbow made by the Weiting family. It's mainly used in naval battles. They also kept twelve of them on the city wall, preparing to use them to deal with the invading fleet.

"This kind of weapon is very powerful, but it is not convenient to move and adjust, and its accuracy is average. It should have just been an accident."

Solomon said, "Well, I can see it too, but I'd better have someone dismantle those giant crossbows to prevent what happened just now from happening again."

Yasu naturally had no objection.

Solomon sent several teams of men to lift stones and smash the twelve Sea King Halberds on the city wall.

Then only a small group of people were left to guard the dock, and the remaining soldiers divided into two groups, one went to the market to grab food, and the other went to take over the armory and select weapons and equipment.

There were also several battles during this period, but the scale was not too large, and the Wing Clan people won easily.

Solomon also saw at this time that the owner of the city must have gathered all the main forces in the city, and it seemed that he was determined to defend the castle.

They seemed to want to use those strong stone fortresses to resist foreign enemies, just like their ancestors.

However, Solomon was not worried about this, and he planned to teach all the nobles on this continent a good lesson.
