Chapter 868 The Promise of the City Lord
When Yang Bo finished the game and was eating and drinking with Su Wei, Annie, and Siya.
Outside Green City in the second world, the bandits’ camp finally became quiet.
These members of the thieves group watched helplessly as the lights on the city wall were brightly lit.
There is the wailing sound of one's own members in the ears, which is treating the wound.
Everyone felt very depressed, because everyone knew that those damn guys on the city wall were repairing the damage caused during the day.
Yesterday, the thieves were very proud and confident, thinking that they could make a lot of money this time.
Because 30 trebuchets and tens of thousands of stone bullets are enough to break the city wall in front of you.
As long as the stone bullets break the bricks and stones on the outside of the city wall, the inside will naturally collapse.
But I didn’t expect that just one night later, the situation would take a shocking turn.
What is the purpose of the thieves group gathering together? Of course, it is to make a fortune and gold coins.
It is now impossible to get rich, and there is also the risk of injury and death.
Of the hundreds of people who were responsible for the sneak attack tonight, almost everyone who came back was injured by arrows, with several arrows stuck in their bodies.
As for those who cannot come back, let alone those who cannot come back.
What’s more important is that there are 5 less trebuchets!
Of course, no one has confidence in whether there is a trebuchet or not.
Of course some people backed down.
In a tent in the camp, there were the same four people who were drinking with women in their arms last night. Their mood was completely different from last night. All four of them looked sad tonight.
"32 people who participated in the sneak attack did not come back. The remaining 90 or so people were all injured, and half of them were seriously injured!" The person in charge of the trebuchet was a middle-aged man with silver hair, said .
Originally, one trebuchet could not kill so many people. It was just that everyone pushed the trebuchet over at night and had to push it back quickly after the sneak attack, so so many people were prepared.
"Shameless, despicable and cunning, they are exactly the same as the Green family." Another bald middle-aged man cursed directly.
The other two people, one is a thin man with long black hair, and the other is a fat man with short and slightly curly black hair.
"This plan was discussed and prepared for five years." The fat man with slightly curly black hair and a red scarf around his neck is the leader of the Red Turban Thieves Group. .
The Red Turban Thieves Group is spread across the entire continent, and each region has a leader. No one knows who the real leader of the Red Turban Thieves Group is.
This big leader is the head of the red-turban bandit group in the Red Maple Leaf Kingdom.
"We paid nearly 100,000 gold coins for 30 trebuchets." The silver-haired middle-aged man felt heartbroken when he thought of the price his family had paid.
These trebuchets need to be purchased, then dismantled and transported, and a place must be prepared upstream of the river.
"This is not just your own calculation. The trebuchet can be used a second time and a third time, but don't count it in our operation." The thin man with long black hair did not give face. , said it directly.
This thin man is the second leader of the Tiger Bandits.
“What should we do now? No matter how much we smash during the day, they will repair it at night!”
"Our supplies last for a week at most!"
"I suggest using burning balls!"
"You cannot use burning balls unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Continue to fight two more God, if it doesn't work on the fourth day, we'll use burning balls." The silver-haired middle-aged man and the bald man wanted to take over Green City, so they rejected the requests of the two thieves group leaders, but they also stated their bottom line.
"Then it's decided. If we can't break the city wall on the fourth day, our two families will withdraw first." The fat man of the red turban thieves group said directly.
Being able to serve as the leader of a band of thieves is definitely something he has the ability to do.
Had it not been for the cooperation with two noble families this time, and the other party's trebuchet, it would have been impossible for him to attack Green City.
As a band of thieves, the most important thing is to preserve their strength. If something goes wrong, run away.
Yesterday, these four people were confidently talking about getting rich and drinking together, but today they were talking about getting ready to leave.
“Our family has invested so much, we can’t just let it go!” The silver-haired middle-aged man shook his head.
"We not only have special incendiary bombs, but also poisonous smoke bombs that can release poisonous smoke."
"The power of poisonous smoke bombs will be even greater in an environment like Green City."
< br>"I suggest that we continue smashing for another day tomorrow. If the situation is not right, we will use poisonous smoke bombs the day after tomorrow." The leader of the Tiger Thieves Group said.
“Why?”
“You’ll know tomorrow!”
When the four people saw the situation the next morning, they understood what the leader of the Tiger Bandit Group had said last night. Due to watering and the fact that the sun is still warm during the day, some melted water spreads a wide distance at the base of the city wall.
Under the golden sunshine in the morning, you can see that a wide section under the city wall is a very smooth mirror surface. Everyone knows how slippery it is here.
"Then let's smash the opponent again today. On the one hand, we will paralyze the opponent, and on the other hand, we will try it. If it doesn't work, we will use poisonous smoke bombs and incendiary bombs tomorrow!" The four people finally reached an agreement.
Yang Bo was standing on the city wall at this time and saw four people from a distance.
The main reason is that one of the bald heads is very conspicuous under the sunlight.
These four people look like ordinary thieves dressed up, but the other thieves are busy doing things. These four are just standing there. They can be ordinary thieves, and these four people did not notice anyone else leaving. Whenever they pass by, they always walk behind their backs.
"This disguise is too poor. The red scarf around the fat man's neck is probably the commander of the red scarf thieves group this time."
"The silver-haired middle-aged man is The person standing next to the trebuchet yesterday, looking at the well-combed hair, must be from a noble family!"
"The other thin man is most likely the commander of the Tiger Thieves Group."
"This bald head should be a member of another noble family. The posture of the nobles standing there is different from other people. This kind of attitude is revealed inadvertently due to the etiquette training they received since childhood."
Yang Bo Four people were analyzed one by one.
"Handy, this is for you!" The city lord took a single-cylinder brass telescope and handed it to Yang Bo.
"Be careful, this is worth tens of thousands of gold coins. Such a large and transparent crystal is worth a lot of money, and it will be made by a jeweler." The city lord warned carefully.
Yang Bo looked at the brass telescope, which was also inlaid with rubies, sapphires and emeralds.
"Your Excellency, I can roughly confirm a few big names among them." Today, Yang Bo told the city lord his analysis.
"Very good, keep an eye on them. I want to live, especially those two nobles. As long as I can catch one of them, I will guarantee you a viscount title!" The city lord heard Handy's analysis. , because as long as the two nobles are captured, the families behind them will pay a very heavy price, and the Green family will turn defeat into victory.
"I'll try my best, but I need more arrows, and there must be a lot of guards around these two people."
"No problem!"
Yang Bo Using a monocular to carefully observe the bandit camp, I quickly discovered some clues.
That is, there are some places in the thieves group that others are walking around, and there seems to be a sense of separation from the entire thieves group. It is just that this area is close to the river.
“You have to pay attention to see if the other party has any other means. After all, the city lord brought out rockets last night!”
“I didn’t even have the chance to ask the city lord how the rockets were made? Could it be brought by gamers? After all, this game has been played for many years.”
The thieves this morning were like crazy, these trebuchets kept hitting the city wall. .
Even the people on the city wall of Green City felt as if the wall was being smashed.
The four targets Yang Bo has locked in have been watching from a distance.
The infantry of the Thieves Group are also fully armed and on guard, and they also place their horses outside the trebuchet position.
The cavalry of the Thieves Group are also ready in the distance to prevent people from Green City from coming out.
"What is it?" Yang Bo discovered these things hidden in the camp. Only the leaders of the trebuchets could enter and exit, and the other three people could not enter. However, someone moved things out from inside, and the others The three people looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.
"Sir, what else can the trebuchet throw besides stone bombs?" Yang Bo also insisted on asking if you don't understand, and went directly to the city to ask the city lord.
"The trebuchet can also throw a lot of things!"
"It can throw some rotting animal carcasses, which will bring plague diseases."
"It can also throw a kind of burning ball. , the contents inside burned after it shattered, what did you find?" The city lord asked Handy at this point.
"One corner of their camp is relatively well-defended. I doubt he has any weapons that can cause chaos in our city." Yang Bo told the truth.
“It’s impossible, this was made by the kingdom’s specialized confidentiality department.” The city lord said in disbelief when he heard this.
"Your Excellency, just in case."
"This area close to the city wall, all the buildings in the city are doused with water."
"Okay!" The city lord heard Handy's words and did not hesitate. He agreed because Handy was a lucky rabbit hunter and had brought him good luck several times.
So the buildings in this area of the city, especially the area close to the city wall, also began to be watered.
The water tanker used to put out the fire this time was just boiling water.
All the roofs and walls near this area were covered with a thick layer of frozen armor.
Of course there are some disadvantages, that is, there is also a thick layer of ice on the ground, and in the end we can only sprinkle a thick layer of sand on top of the ice.
"We will use stone bombs for the first hour tomorrow morning, and incendiary bombs an hour later." The four thieves looked at the brightly lit city wall at night, which meant that today's efforts during the day were in vain. , and the other party's state of doing it with a torch is obviously mocking.
