Just like what happened to Hospens back then, but now with Amirida's reminder, Walls decided not to make any more mistakes and to investigate those spies thoroughly. Hospens had tried to outwit Willis at the beginning, but was outmaneuvered instead, all because of Willis's mistake, and now Walls will definitely not make any mistakes.
The spies sent by King Gryphus were always looking for opportunities. If they had obtained enough intelligence and mastered the shift change time of the garrisons, they could easily open the city gates and let the Rhodok army outside the city enter the city, thus directly capturing the city.
But in recent times, Walsh began to send his own people to investigate these spies. He searched every aspect of the city in order to find all these damn spies. Sure enough, at this moment Walsh's men found some clues.
Through Suno's population register, Wals's soldiers can easily find out where the outsiders are. Therefore, when they know where the outsiders are, the soldiers immediately catch them and interrogate them. Originally, this approach should be to not alert the enemy and secretly observe what the spies are doing? But I have made up my mind to expel these spies quickly. Wals cannot make any mistakes like Hosbens. Moreover, the reinforcements will be here in a few days. If I alert the enemy, the spies may stay in their own place and not come out. In this way, when the reinforcements arrive, they will not be able to make any trouble. It is more likely that these spies will jump over the wall in desperation and directly implement his plan, which will help to find these spies faster.
Wals had a clear plan, so these spies did not dare to show their heads and kept their disguises. Those spies were not local residents, so Wals had sent some people to keep an eye on these suspicious people. A few spies were targeted, but of course there were some who slipped through the net, and Wals did not intend to investigate these things carefully. When the reinforcements arrived, he could leave the city.
King Griffus saw that time was passing day by day, but those spies did not send any news. He knew that something must have happened in the city. Perhaps all his spies were discovered or captured. These were not good signs for King Griffus. The reinforcements from the Kingdom of Nord were gradually approaching. King Griffus heard that the leader of this reinforcement was Thordunjar. took out their belongings in order to cooperate with Thordunjar.
"According to the preliminary report of our scouts, the number of people led by Solton Jarl is about 1,200 people. This number is still slightly insufficient compared with our army of more than 2,000 people. But if we add the more than 300 defenders in the city of Suno and Wals's own guards, we may face an attack of more than 1,600 people. Other lords in our kingdom seem unwilling to come for various reasons." Earl Leland reported the recent situation to King Griffith. When Earl Leland raised his head, he saw the extremely annoyed face of King Griffith.
He originally had the advantage of numbers, but now it has quickly turned around. King Ragnar has taken all the old lords out, and the young lords can actually gather so many people, which is far beyond King Gryphus's expectations. What makes him even more annoyed is that the lords in his kingdom are reluctant to send troops to help him. Some lords seem to be extremely dissatisfied with him for provoking this war. They had experienced a war with the Kingdom of Swadia, and it should have been time to recuperate. Unexpectedly, they are now going to invade other countries, which is extremely inconsistent with the wishes of some lords.
Of course, those war-crazed lords were willing to follow King Griffus to the battle, but those kind-hearted lords did not think so. They felt that if there was another war, it would only cause more casualties. It would be better to stay at home and grow flowers.
King Gryphus didn't know what to do with those kind-hearted lords. When it came to fighting to defend their country, these kind-hearted lords were only willing to stand up, but when it came to invading other countries like this, these kind-hearted lords were obviously unwilling to do so.
In desperation, King Griffith did not force the lord to come out and help him. Forcible attack on the city was one way, but doing so would mean betting the entire army on this city, which was obviously not worth it. The quality of Wals' army was extremely high, and it would cost a very high price to capture the city.
King Gryphus, who was in a dilemma, seemed ready to withdraw his troops, but he was reluctant to do so in vain.
A strong sense of anger rushed into his mind.
"Are our siege equipment ready?" King Gryphus said, suppressing his anger.
"Your Majesty, we have completed more than half of the siege equipment. We believe that all the siege equipment will be completed by this time tomorrow." Earl Leland reported the situation to King Graves.
After hearing this, King Griffus calmed down for a while and then suddenly burst out and said, "No need. Order all the soldiers to prepare to attack the city with the siege equipment we have made. The enemy's reinforcements will arrive soon. If we don't take this opportunity to capture the city, we will have no chance."
After hearing what King Graves said, Earl Rayland was a little surprised, but that was all. He still followed King Graves' orders.
In an instant, all the soldiers of the Rhodok Kingdom stood up, holding up their spears and shields, with swords in front and crossbows behind. First, a wave of arrows shot straight at them, and then the well-equipped infantry began to carry ladders and siege towers to prepare to climb the city wall and fight with the Nord soldiers.
Everyone knows that the Nord Royal Guards are the most powerful infantry on the continent, and the Rhodok Sergeant has strong melee ability, so he is the second-ranked infantry in the entire continent. The number of Nord Royal Guards is scarce, and the number of Rhodok Sergeants is not large either, but each lord has a certain number of Rhodok Sergeants in his troops, while Wals only has a few Nord Royal Guards.
More and more Rhodok soldiers came over from the siege tower. The Nord Royal Guards raised their axes and chopped at the soldiers. A great battle was about to break out. Amirida, Aileen, Matilda, Fatis, Niza, etc., all the people that Wals had chosen climbed onto the city wall and began to fight with the Rhodok soldiers.
On the city wall, a large number of Rhodok soldiers were fighting with the soldiers of Wals. The soldiers of Wals were divided into two factions, one was the soldiers of the Kingdom of Schroeder, and the other was the soldiers of the Kingdom of Swadia. The soldiers of these two factions combined together to defend against the attacks of the Kingdom of Rhodok.
Originally, the Nord Kingdom and the Swaadian Kingdom were fighting each other to the death some time ago, but under the mediation of Wals, the soldiers of the two countries are now uniting to fight against the Rhodok Kingdom. It can be said that this skill of Wals is unmatched by other lords.
This has to be thanked to Lorimer's teaching of Wals. Wals was observing the actions of the nearby soldiers at the safest position on the city wall. He could see the enemy soldiers rushing up the city wall frantically. Wals was surrounded by fully armed soldiers.
Looking at the Rhodok soldiers rushing up, Wals looked at his subordinates who were resisting all the time. Airen took his two-handed sword and swung it like a hurricane. The autumn wind swept the fallen leaves, and rows and rows of Rhodok soldiers fell one after another. to penetrate his body.
Wals' other subordinate, Mathilde, a Nord female warrior, held a long sword and a hard shield in her left hand. At this time, Wals was already a lord with a territory. The weapons he equipped his subordinates were definitely not ordinary weapons. They were all weapons carefully made by blacksmiths.
The shield in Mathilde's hand blocked the swords and spears wielded by the Rhodok Kingdom. Most citizens of the Rhodok Kingdom used long-handled swords and spears, which were specially used to deal with cavalry on the plains. Although most of the areas of the Rhodok Kingdom were mountainous, there were also some plains, such as Viruga. Therefore, to defend these territories, some shields and spears were needed to cooperate. Only in this way could they withstand the impact of the Swadian knights.
Warriors like Niza and Fatis also joined the ranks. Naturally, other warriors were not to be outdone. Jack, a Nord like Mathilde, now held a giant axe, which was a giant axe that the Nord Royal Guards usually had. Now Jack's martial arts were comparable to those of the Nord Royal Guards. Jack waved the giant axe in his hand, and no one could resist him wherever he went. An unlucky soldier from the Rhodok Kingdom suddenly bumped into Jack, and the giant axe was swung directly away. It didn't seem like he was using a heavy weapon at all. The weight of the giant axe was like a feather in Jack's hand. The giant axe whizzed past, and the head of the Rhodok Kingdom soldier fell down.
"Hahaha, I haven't had such a good time killing in a long time, come on, come here." Jack shouted to the Rhodok soldiers below. It was obvious that Jack was very excited about this battle and was not afraid of the number of Rhodok soldiers at all. He was the same as most Nords. Nords were warlike and strong enough to move forward like a fighting machine without stopping. Jack was the best representative of this group of people.
After seeing the bloodthirsty fighting of the Rhods, the Swadians also rushed forward to fight. Their warlike personality was not as strong as that of the Nords, but they still had the spirit of not admitting defeat. They had been defeated by the Nords before, but at this moment, they did not want to lose that spirit. After all, Suno was the original territory of the Swadians, and now that the Nords occupied it, they would never let the Rhodok people occupy it as well. At the beginning, the Rhodok Kingdom was their defeated enemy, but it was the simultaneous attack of the three countries, the Nord Kingdom, the Khergit Khanate and the Vaegir Kingdom, that led to the demise of the Kingdom of Swadia. Now, no matter what, they have to settle the account with their former defeated enemy.
Under the city wall, King Gryphus frowned after seeing the enemy's tenacious resistance.
"What are you all doing? I gathered you here to stop the Nord Kingdom from becoming stronger. Even if we have gathered more than 2,000 people, we still can't defeat those defenders. Our numbers are far greater than those defenders, but now it looks like the enemy has the upper hand. What kind of soldiers are in the video you brought? If you all brought a group of cowards who can't hold weapons, get out of here!" King Gryphus almost shouted at the lords under him. His lords were frightened when they heard that their king was so angry.
It was the most prestigious Count Leland who stood up.
"Your Majesty, please don't be so angry. The enemy's tenacious resistance is only temporary. You must know that there are more than 2,000 people in our group, and the enemy has only more than 300 people. It can be said that as long as we use a rotation battle, we will definitely be able to use up all their physical strength. In this way, it is only a matter of time for us to capture this city." Count Nero believed that these words would definitely calm King Gryphus's anger.
But he miscalculated, and all he got in return for his words was a cold snort from King Gryphus.
"You guys are hiding and choking at this moment. If we can't capture this city quickly and the Kingdom of Jenod makes a show of force, when can we get our face back? We were beaten badly by the Kingdom of Swadia, and our country lost all its face. The Kingdom of Swadia was destroyed, and people on the continent believed that it was the joint efforts of the four countries, and our Rhodok Kingdom made the smallest contribution. Now we have to hit the arrogance of the Nord Kingdom hard. I want to let the Swadians of the entire Swadia Kingdom and the Nords in the north know how powerful our Rhodok Kingdom is. We were defeated by the Kingdom of Swadia only because we made some mistakes by accident. Our army is the most powerful army on the continent, and anyone who hears the name of our army will flee in panic."
King Griffus pointed at his group of unpromising lords and said that he had brought a lot of elite soldiers and generals with him to the battle this time, but looking at his own lords, few of them were willing to take out all their belongings. Looking at his group of unpromising lords, King Griffus became furious.
"Lockwood, you must lead your men to the city wall right now, select the most elite soldiers, and kill all of these bastards. Let the people on the continent see the might of our Rhodok Kingdom."
All the lords turned their eyes to the man called Lockwood. He had an old face and looked like a man in his 50s. He was holding a wooden stick, which looked extremely bright under the reflection of the sunlight.
The lords of the Rhodok Kingdom could all tell who this old man was. She was a general under King Gryphus. Although she was very old, she still had powerful military force and was known as Rotten Wood.
Deadwood Lockwood.
His weapon was not a sharp spear or a sharp bow and arrow, but a wooden stick in his hand. It was made by some unknown method, but it could be directly compared with an iron stick. When it collided with regular metal weapons, it was not at all inferior. It could be seen that this wooden stick was definitely not an ordinary wooden stick. As for how it was made, these lords had no idea. According to the legends on the continent, it was impossible to know where this wooden stick came from. Rotten Wood Lockwood called his wooden stick Rotten Wood.
Therefore, he also has such a title. Although the title is called Rotten Wood, he should never be underestimated. Any person with a title on the mainland either has a strong military force, a very high reputation, or an outstanding military talent.
Wals could also get a title, but he has too many titles and no unified title has been formed for the time being, because this person not only has powerful military force but also has outstanding military talent. Perhaps a loud and outstanding war will win him a standard title.
Now, Rottenwood Lockwood led a team of elite Rhodok Kingdom soldiers to the city wall. With the help of siege towers, this group of people quickly rushed to the city wall. The next scene was naturally unbearable to watch. It was obviously not good news for Wals. Xiaomu waved the wooden stick in his hand, which should be called Rottenwood. It didn't look like Rottenwood at all. Even the video recorded by the heavy armor couldn't be hit by a stick. Heavy armor was afraid of blunt attacks. Ordinary sharpness could not penetrate heavy armor to cause harm to them, but blunt weapons were different. The wooden stick happened to be such a weapon. It hit the chest of the Nord soldier, and the heavy armor
The transmitted shockwaves caused a sharp pain in the Nord soldier's chest, and then a large amount of blood spurted out of his throat.
In an instant, the Nord soldier met death. Under the horrified eyes of several Nord soldiers, Lockwood waved the wooden stick in his hand and rushed forward. Boom, boom, boom, several more Nord soldiers fell down.
The group of Rhodok soldiers led by Lockwood were also the elite troops of the Rhodok Kingdom. They were the elite among the elite, wielding swords and spears without any hesitation, and holding a straight-blade knife in their hands. This straight-blade knife could bring unexpected effects on the narrow city walls.
A Nord royal guard suddenly appeared in front of Lockwood, and two Rhodok Kingdom soldiers who wanted to stop him were chopped into four pieces by his giant axe. Lockwood had seen such scenes countless times. For Lockwood, he had excellent psychological quality and extremely rich combat experience. After all, he was an old man who had lived for many years.
He casually waved the wooden stick in his hand a few times, and suddenly exerted force with his feet and bounced in front of the Nord Royal Guard. Then, before the Nord Royal Guard could react, the wooden stick in his hand suddenly bounced on the Nord Royal Guard's head. The Nord Royal Guard opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. There was a dangerous light in Lockwood's eyes. The wooden stick came towards him again and hit the back of the Nord Royal Guard's head directly. Even though the Nord Royal Guard was wearing a helmet, the helmet and the head were smashed at the same time.
The Nord royal guard died on the spot.
Even the warlike Nords gasped after seeing this scene, just like the Vikians saw Kadoc. Although Lockwood was not as terrifying as Kadoc, his strength was enough to make people awed. Several Nord soldiers retreated, unwilling to fight with Lockwood. The Rhodok Kingdom behind him saw the Nords' bear-like appearance and naturally laughed heartily. With Lockwood joining the battlefield, the situation on this wall was temporarily reversed.
Lockwood was a titled warrior, and the changes on this section of the city wall naturally caught Walls' attention.
"Who is that? Why does he have such a powerful force? He can kill such a strong soldier as the Nord Royal Guard in just a few moves." Wals asked the people around him. A Swadian soldier who had participated in the Swadian Kingdom's southern expedition suddenly came out and said.
