After Ronan finished dealing with the enemy, the nearby defenders finally reacted and blocked the gap. Under Ronan's command, they picked up the stones piled in the corner and threw them down the ladder. The height increased.
Under the force brought by the weight of the stone itself, the soldiers holding the ladder were knocked down directly with their shields, their arms were twisted into weird shapes, and they were obviously broken. The unlucky ones even had their necks broken.
When they had no time to add more people to hold the ladder, Ronan directly held the ladder, and pushed the ladder down with a low roar with both arms. The arrows fired from a distance hit Ronan's plate armor without breaking the defense at all, and only made a sound.
There was a clanking sound.
After seeing what Ronan did, the defenders in other positions followed suit, and all the ladders were quickly overturned. The Volantis had no choice but to retreat first, coming and going in a hurry. In less than two hours of offensive and defensive battle,
Volantis abandoned hundreds of corpses and retreated. Nearly a hundred of the Taiwei defenders were killed, and many more were injured.
This is just a tentative attack. If the entire Volantis army were to press forward and attack from all directions, the situation would be really not optimistic. If the Eredar and Volantis would make peace after being unable to attack for a long time,
Basically, it must be unbearable. After all, the combat capability of the thousand militiamen left by King Terra is really worrying. Most of them are people who have only received basic training but have no actual combat experience.
Ronan discovered today that many people's hands were shaking in fear of enemy attacks. How could they fight the enemy if they couldn't even hold their weapons firmly? Rexxar also discovered this, so he decided to continue fighting during this period.
Train these new recruits well, otherwise big problems will occur sooner or later.
Rexxar asked the soldiers to gather the corpses together, and then lit a fire in the open space to prepare for burning. After all, they had to defend here for a period of time. If the corpses were not disposed of, it would very likely cause a plague.
The attack collapsed.
The Volantis also took the corpses with them when they retreated. After all, if the plague broke out, it would affect more than just the Taiwei defenders. They couldn't escape at such a close distance.
Ronan had returned to the room at this time and had taken off his armor. Several villagers' temporary attendants were wiping the blood on Ronan's armor and sword with rags.
"Sir, you must have killed many enemies!" said the village woman who was wiping Ronan's armor. She was only forty years old, but she was already as old as an old woman.
"Why do you say that?" Ronan, who was wiping his face with the towel he just threw out, asked strangely.
"Because there are so many blood stains on your equipment. These are the blood of the Volantis. My lord, you must defeat them fiercely."
"You hate them?"
"Yes, if they hadn't invaded, we wouldn't have had to leave the village, and my sons wouldn't have had to join the army."
"In which army is your son serving now?"
"Taiwei Er, sir, I don't know how they are doing now."
"They will be fine, and we will defeat the enemy." Ronan was about to say something to the village woman when Mario's voice sounded outside the door.
"Rodrit, Lexa summoned us to a meeting. It should be to discuss the next battle plan."
Ronan smiled at the village woman, put down his towel, put on his shirt and walked out of the room. Mario was waiting for him outside the door, with Inela Huanyu standing next to him. Ronan looked at him strangely.
, I don’t know how these two people got involved.
Mario greeted Ronan, then turned around and led the way. By the time they arrived at the castle's meeting hall, everyone had arrived, and they were the last ones. After sitting on the vacant seat, Inela sat down.
Next to Ronan, Ronan glanced at her secretly. I have to say that so far, Ronan has not seen the elf with long disabilities, and they are basically above the passing line. Inela can be called a beauty, that is
Like her brother Thesma, she gives people a cold and arrogant feeling.
After everyone arrived, Lexa spoke.
"We also learned about the strength of the Volantis at today's stop. Only their slave regiments went into battle today, but their most famous main battle force is the cavalry. They may not be very strong in siege. But these
The slave soldiers are well-trained and fearless of death, and the Volantis have put a lot of effort into them.
Our army currently has sufficient combat strength only with the Suntland troops we brought. The thousand militiamen are of little use, so I plan to personally train them during this period, at least to let them play some role.
The Volantis have begun to build a siege ladder outside the city. Although I have sent soldiers to cut down all the nearby trees, they still transported a batch of wood from other places.
However, I already have a way to deal with these siege ladders, and they are nothing to worry about. As long as there are no mistakes, we will definitely be able to persist until the troops are assembled.
In order to prevent the enemy from attacking at night, the city walls and watchtowers must be guarded 24 hours a day. Each of our clans is responsible for a section of the city wall and arranges their own people to take turns. Similarly, the other soldiers must be ready to fight at any time. I
The requirement is that you must be able to put on your clothes and enter your job within ten minutes when the alarm is raised. I hope everyone can overcome it."
Seeing that everyone understood, Rexxar nodded with satisfaction. After allocating the walls that each clan was responsible for guarding, Rexxar dismissed the meeting.
The city wall assigned to the Silver Moon Clan is the north wall, and all the guarding matters are left to Mario. Ronan is completely too lazy to take care of these trivial matters. He only needs to be responsible for fighting.
After a peaceful night, Volantis did not choose to attack at night, because the elves have very good night vision, and attacking at night would not be conducive to the performance of their own archers.
Within a few days, both sides were in peace, and each was busy with its own affairs. Volantis was busy building various engineering equipment, and Rexxar was busy training militiamen. Under the oppression of death, these militiamen were progressing at a reasonable speed.
Okay, after a few days of training, the battle formation is already in shape, and the accuracy of the bow and arrow has also improved a lot.
Ronan also joined Rexxar's camp to help train these militiamen when he had nothing to do. Ronan didn't know any training techniques. His combat skills were directly instilled by the system template. But although Ronan would not teach them anything
, but he can be used as a sparring partner to test their training results.
Facts have proved that Rexxar's training is somewhat useful. At least the survivability of these militiamen has improved a lot. From the very beginning, they would be beaten to the ground by Ronan. Now they can use weapons and shields to block several of Ronan's attacks.
It can be considered a significant improvement, although Ronan didn't use his full strength at all.
