Rise In Calradia

Chapter 159: : The Battle of Serendil (4)

It has been three days since Serendil was surrounded by the Rhodok army. Just like the previous two days, even if the sky is completely dark, the camp on the opposite side is still brightly lit. The Rhodok soldiers are still in the light of the fire. Doing things that are not done during the day.

"They are really interesting."

Above the wall of Serendil, a guerrilla shooter looked at the firelight in the distance, and those who were working under the firelight, said in a mocking tone.

"Keep them busy, when they are done, they will really fight. I really don't know if we can survive then."

Compared to this guerrilla shooter, the mercenary standing aside and watching under the city wall did not seem so happy.

He has escorted caravans and has been on the battlefield. Whether it is a robber or a regular army, he has fought. A fellow soldier who joined him as a soldier, he is the only one who is still alive. Having survived until now, he dared not despise any battle, especially when his strength was weak.

"Let them come, we will drive them back."

The guerrilla shooter thought for a while after listening to his words, and then showed a very stiff smile.

The mercenary sighed and looked worriedly at the Rhodok soldiers who were surrounding the town with spiky spikes and wooden walls.

But at this moment, there was a metal crackling sound on the other side of the wall. The voice is very soft, and the other people basically don't care. He was the only one who had sharpened his senses because of his combat experience over the years, and he noticed that voice.

He spoke to the guerrilla shooter, and then walked toward the source of the sound with the sword on his waist. There was a small corner of the fence, and the guards didn't know how to leave their posts at this time.

And at the edge of the wall, under the shining of the torch that was about to go out next to him, he saw something like a hook stuck in the gap between the arrow stacks at the top of the wall.

He immediately leaned over and took a look, but just as he had just bent down to see clearly, a sound of arrows pierced through the air, and the crossbow arrows shot through the mercenary's eye sockets and pierced through the back of the head.

The mercenary fell to the ground, and the guerrilla shooter behind him also yelled in horror.

"The Rhodoks! The Rhodoks! They are climbing the city wall!"

He shouted loudly, and nearby soldiers rushed over yelling. Others ran to other locations on the wall, spreading news to every corner of this line of defense, so that the guards would sound the alarm.

The Swadia guerrilla shooter saw a group of people climbing up through the rope, because the wall was not high and they were coming up soon. He immediately drew out the short knife from his waist to chop the thumb-thick rope, but what he didn't expect was that the rope was so strong. After cutting several times, the rope only had a gap and did not break.

The people below also fired crossbow arrows at him. He avoided one, and was shot in the shoulder by the other, and had to throw away the knife and retreat a few steps.

Those who launched the sneak attack also climbed up the fence through ropes, pulled out military **** and improvised warhammer from their waists, or took off crossbows from their backs.

The alarm bell was ringing, and the city was full of flames.

Under the command of the sergeants, the Rhodok soldiers who had been busy at work also threw away the tools in their hands, picked up the weapons hidden in the building materials, and moved out the ladder under the wood. Gathered and rushed to the gate of Serendil.

"what happened!?"

Byron, who had already fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound of the alarm bell. He immediately got out of bed, didn't even wear his shoes, grabbed his jacket and rushed down the stairs.

Johnny got up a little later than Byron, and the first sight he saw when he opened the door was that Byron ran past him disheveled.

"grown ups…"

"Bring my armor, Johnny!"

"Okay, my lord."

Johnny was startled by Byron's nervous and serious tone. He just followed Byron halfway down the stairs and hurriedly turned around and ran back, because he almost fell off the stairs in a hurry.

Byron ran downstairs and saw Kress standing in the open door, with his back facing him with his hand on the blade, watching the soldiers shouting and rushing outside the door.

"What happened?"

Byron asked as he went downstairs.

"The Rhodok climbed up the wall, boss."

"What!? These guys...how are things now?"

Byron was stunned for a moment, and then immediately contacted the strange behavior of the Rhodoks in the past few days.

"Everyone is going to the wall. Desaiwei and Fatis asked me to guard here to avoid accidents."

Kress's expression and tone were fairly relaxed, which eased Byron's pressure a bit.

Although Kress has some flaws in his personality, he is delicate in mind. If the problem is really big, he can't be so relaxed.

Moreover, Fatis and the others did not come to him, but directly led people to fight directly. In this case, the situation seemed not too bad, and it was still under control. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

But Byron thought about it again and found that there was something wrong with him.

The Rhodoks launched a night attack and successfully boarded the wall. The perimeter defense Byron has been checked, there are no loopholes, and the night light is also very good. Unless his soldiers are blind, it is impossible for the Rhodoks to take advantage of such a big gap.

Obviously, something went wrong with the guard on the city wall.

"John!"

"I'm here, my lord."

John, with two mercenary swordsmen guarding the stone tower at the door, immediately came to the door. He was going to salute Byron, but Byron waved his hand to let him get rid of it.

"Call anyone you can trust to guard this stone tower. You go to the city wall again. When you are finished, you will bring me all the guards on the outer wall tonight! No matter it is ours , Who are the other two barons, bring them all!"

"My lord, you mean..."

"You are a smart person, you know what I mean."

"Understood, my lord, I will pick out the guy who betrayed you!"

Byron nodded, and John turned and left.

Johnny took the heavy armor and walked down the stairs one step at a time, and then almost dropped the armor on the table on the first floor.

"I, I'm here, my lord."

Johnny took a few breaths, but still picked up the armor to help Byron put it on.

"Good job, Johnny. But I have more important work for you now, you..."

Byron lowered his head and looked at his feet.

"Go and help me take the shoes off."

"Yes, my lord."

Johnny smiled bitterly and climbed up the stairs again.
