Quartermaster Louis Fitch has been living a very prosperous life recently.
Continuous victories continued to increase his wealth on his books, giving him some new expectations for this war.
Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with the merit exchange system set by Surdak, he felt that when he returned to Bena City after the victory of the war in the Gampo plane, not only Surdak could bring back the wealth that continued to accumulate in the military camp.
An elite heavy armored infantry regiment of 20,000 people, and the 100,000 magic crystals that he brought back from the Ministry of Munitions can also be brought back intact. His small office may be replaced with a larger one.
.
Starting from Mukuso City, the Heavy Armored Infantry Corps has been making profits continuously.
Although the previous wars in the southern part of the Ganbu plane continued to make profits, the profits from those wars were all transferred to his name by Surdak in the name of raising war preparation supplies and weapons and equipment by himself, including more than one hundred
Equipped with a magic pattern structure and 3,000 excellent war horses, but there were no loopholes in the accounts, leaving Louis Fitch speechless.
However, after the portal from Mukuso City was connected, the military resumed its material supply to the legion, and the wealth gained from the war has been accumulated in the legion's accounts.
Every time you fight, you can get a huge amount of magic crystal...
However, this good thing seemed to end in the town of Samp, because in order to prevent the heavy armored infantry regiment from suffering excessive casualties, Suldak ordered the heavy armored infantry soldiers to stand in front of twenty catapults to form three shield walls for protection.
This position.
Quartermaster Louis Fitch held the parchment account book every day and began to have a headache at the huge daily expenses.
The high pension and merit reward system, in this stalemate stage of the war, will quickly reduce the newly accumulated wealth in the legion...
Moreover, Suldak did not know where he bought a large number of flints and gunpowder barrels. The catapults have never been withdrawn since they were pushed to the battlefield. The craftsmen of these catapults are divided into three shifts every day, working day and night towards
Throwing flints at Thumper Town,
In just five days, twenty catapults had thrown more than 50,000 flints into Samp Town, all of which were money.
This was like taking boxes after boxes of silver coins and smashing the demon servants and the flame Gog to death at the top of the city.
The soldiers of the heavy armored infantry regiment formed a shield wall and stood guard around the twenty catapults. They would not take the initiative to attack at all.
Commander Surdak's fighting method can be regarded as a reinterpretation of the maximum value that the heavy armored infantry regiment, which has always been regarded as cannon fodder, can exert in siege warfare.
Louis Fitch didn't understand where these flints came from, but since there were mages in the legion, he was not allowed to make any questions. Maybe a certain magician was involved, and then he had offended the entire army.
The magician's circle.
Louis Fitch had to pay seven silver coins for each flint, which made him feel distressed.
In fact, as a senior quartermaster, Louis Fitch knew clearly that even if a war started in the Bena province, it would be difficult to buy a flint wrapped with kerosene and hemp rope for seven silver coins.
.
For businessmen, this is an unprofitable business.
Because what makes this kind of strategic material expensive is not its own value, but the high transportation costs.
In total, Louis Fitch needs to pay 500 magic crystals for these five days...
…
In fact, the city wall of Samp Town had been turned into ruins by twenty catapults in these five days. There were round flints everywhere near the city wall of Samp Town.
Those demon servants and the flame Gog didn't know where they were safe. As the city walls continued to break and collapse, the barrier in Samp Town was completely lifted.
Even so, Suldak still did not launch a general attack on Samp Town.
The soldiers injured during the siege on the first day have all recovered under the treatment of Holy Light, but Surdak is still waiting.
He even mounted a green-scaled horse and took two young ladies, Samira and Siya, to run north along the Noma River for a whole day. It was said that he was going to see the clouds over the Snowy Mountains, but the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment
The warriors were more willing to believe that he was taking the opportunity to date the beautiful half-elves Samira and Thea.
In this legion where the strong are respected, Samira is regarded as a goddess by all the infantry soldiers for her extraordinary archery skills.
Of course, there are many warriors who pursue Thea. After all, Thea's water therapy has treated many injured warriors, and those warriors are all her supporters.
In fact, Surdak has been delaying the date of siege, waiting for the best opportunity to siege.
In addition, if he waits one more day, he will earn an extra hundred magic crystals, which is definitely a lot of money for Wall Village.
…
Aphrodite was extremely annoyed by having to carry flint for several days.
But on the sixth day, these efforts finally paid off. Surdak took Aphrodite, Samira, and Siya on horseback to ride on the vast grassland.
They went all the way north, upstream along the beautiful Noma River.
After running to the bottom of Palmyra Falls, everyone had a lunch carefully prepared by Suldak by the clear pool. Siya even went to the waterfall to catch some delicious redback bass.
After Suldak carefully grilled it over charcoal fire, everyone happily had a delicious meal, and then accompanied Suldak for a while to look at the white clouds piled up like marshmallows on the snowy mountains in the north...
"Dak, when are you going to attack Samp Town?" Samira's slightly hoarse voice always reminds Suldak of a movie star he liked in his previous life. Although they look different,
Looking at the clouds in the sky, the same look seemed to shine in his eyes.
"Yeah, a lot of people have been asking me recently." Siya also leaned out her upper body from the clear water and asked curiously.
Her clear voice could not be covered up even by the rumbling sound of the waterfall.
"It's coming soon. It might be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. In fact, I'm waiting for that cloud..."
Surdak pointed to the north very casually and said.
Seeing that the time was almost up, he took the green-scaled horse that was grazing by the river and prepared to return to the camp.
Aphrodite did not want to ride any more, and a six-pointed star-shaped magic pattern appeared under her feet. She slipped into the Void Gate and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Siya pointed to the clear Noma River and insisted on swimming back...
Surdak had no choice but to return to the military camp by Lake Bella Norma with Samira.
…
On the sixth night of the catapult siege, Lake Bellanomah received a heavy rain, and the rain continued until the next morning.
Archmage Harper in the camp tent breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the first time he had forecast the weather in his life. Although it was one day later than expected, the rain finally came.
…
The heavy armored infantry originally thought that in this terrible weather, if everyone wore rainproof cloaks and stood next to the catapult to form a shield wall, it would not be too hard on a rainy day.
Unexpectedly, Surdak formally issued the order for a general attack just after breakfast.
In addition to the 1,500 heavy cavalry remaining in the military camp, 25,000 heavy infantry soldiers and 1,000 archers all had to brave the rain to participate in this siege battle. Even if they were wearing rainproof cloaks,
Wearing a steel helmet, standing in the rain can still feel how cold the rain is.
The infantry soldiers marched in formation towards Samp Town under the heavy rain. They could hardly see too far.
There are rain curtains everywhere in the world. I wear long leather boots on my feet and heavy full-coverage armor on my body. Being soaked by the rain like this requires some maintenance of the leather boots and armor. The leather boots are soaked in the rain.
Over time, it will become hard, and if the armor is soaked in rain for a long time, it will rust...
The phalanx of the heavy armored infantry regiment rushed to the ruins of the city wall of Samp Town, and only encountered some hell dogs who were stubbornly resisting.
A group of cavemen were soaking in a puddle. Their legs were very thin and their bodies were very heavy. Their feet were stuck in the mud and couldn't be pulled out. The cavemen in the rain were like a group of worms, and they didn't even need a shield.
The soldiers stood in front, and the spearmen holding Paglio spears stabbed one to death, and then another. Soon the city wall was filled with demon blood diluted by rain.
The blood is lavender.
The flaming Goges that emerged from the ruins of the city wall were like drowned rats in the rain. Their fine hairs clung to their bodies. Each one had huge eyes. They were beaten by the pouring rain and could barely stand upright.
Small fireballs erupted from their hands.
'Puff puff'
Heavy rain fell, and countless fireballs were extinguished.
The heavy armored infantry soldiers who held up their tower shields to fight against the hell dogs shouted from the bottom of their hearts. The excitement from their hearts turned into irrepressible courage, and they strode towards the ruins of the city wall.
The cowardly Gog brothers began to scream and fled into the town.
The only fighting force on the battlefield in the ruins of the city wall are these greedy and cunning hell dogs. They can't stop the heavy armored infantry soldiers. A group of demon servants are also behind the ruins of the city wall, turning around with these hell dogs.
Escape into the town of Samp.
The heavy armored infantry soldiers braved the pouring rain above their heads and strode through the ruins of the city wall into the town of Samp.
In a neighborhood on the edge of the town, a group of heavy armored infantry soldiers suddenly fell silently in a pool of blood.
Some transparent silhouettes of human figures appeared in the rain. Every time they killed someone, they hid in the corner of the house. The infantry squadron leader behind them quickly blew the whistle.
Samira, wearing black leather armor, jumped several times and arrived in front of her.
In the rain, she didn't wear a rainproof cloak or a hood to cover her face, and the black scarf almost stuck to her face.
The Sky Strike Bow continuously emits the power of thunder and lightning, which penetrates into the ground along with the rainwater.
Samira shot arrows with swirling winds one after another, and she killed six of the shadow demons that had only transparent outlines in the rain in an instant.
She hunted shadow demons everywhere on the battlefield, because Surdak was very interested in these shadow demons.
A group of shadow demons could not hide in the rain and could not stop the heavy armored infantry regiment. It only took half a day for the heavy armored infantry soldiers to occupy most of Samp Town.
