Job hunting in another world [Western Fantasy]

The slaves in the sky and the soldiers on the river were all deceptions, and the real large army was only exposed at this time.However, Aldrich's main force was dealing with the enemies in the sky, and a large number of warriors in light armor and gray inner robes attacked mightily.

The warriors of the Shilan Empire were all wearing heavy armor before, and Daniel asked them to change into light armor. One was to speed up the march, and the other was because he found that Aldrich's army did not have heavy weapons, so light armor was enough.At this time, the large army rushed over aggressively, and broke up the formation of Aldrich's army in an instant.Aldrich responded quickly, arranged troops and sent out generals, let the shield soldiers stand in front, and commanded the troops to slowly retreat into the fortress.Bows and arrows, catapults, etc. were prepared on the outer wall, blocking the gray-robed army of the Shilan Empire from outside the fortress.

This attack and defense, Aldridge had the upper hand.Daniel led the army to attack the fortress like sea waves. The troops in front stepped on and sank, and were pierced through the chest by the spikes under the soil. The rest of the army continued to move forward.Daniel's army did not have any medical units, and the clergy did not have the ability to treat them. The wounded were trampled under their feet by their companions and fell into the mud.They were equipped with battering rams, armor-piercing swords and trebuchets, and the elite troops in front bombarded the defenders on the high wall with a simple and primitive hand cannon.This kind of hand cannon is very difficult to aim, basically it can't hit anywhere, but it does a lot of damage.In addition to this kind of hand cannon for personal use, there is a high-precision and high-damage ballista jointly fired by a team behind, which cooperates with the battering hammer to attack the city wall.This large weapon was originally prepared for the strong walls of the Northern Alliance, and it was brought out in advance at this time.

Daniel will never underestimate Aldridge.

This battle of attacking and defending the fortress lasted for three full days and three nights. Daniel had a large number of troops and could take turns to rest, while Aldridge was very struggling. He could only try his best to arrange the exchange of the defending troops, and to defend each place. It's all about budgeting.In the past three days, he himself has never rested. Standing on the city wall, his posture is always upright, his thoughts remain agile, and his orders are still clear and accurate.

He is as impenetrable as this fortress.

Aldridge quickly calculated the remaining supplies in the fortress. He knew that Daniel was consuming it with him on purpose, because at this time the Shilan Empire's army also began to tire, and those soldiers had already shown signs of fatigue.The key to siege is speed. When you can't make a strong attack at the beginning, you can only siege and consume, but the disadvantage is always on the side of the siege.If Aldridge had the resources of the alliance behind him, even if it was only in name, Daniel would not take such measures.It was precisely because he knew that Aldrich had no successors, and these were his only cards in his hands, so he used the siege to consume, taking advantage of the number of people and equipment, and devoured the fortress.

Daniel has fully utilized the advantages in his hands. His commanding ability is extremely strong, and the part of the soldiers who are difficult to deal with in this army has also been consumed by him on ships and airships. The rabble who want to drive can also charge into battle as long as they are obedient.But three days later, the fortress was still as strong as ever. It was as if he was facing a mountain buried deep in the ground, no matter what wind and rain he suffered, he remained motionless.

On the fifth day, Daniel finally retreated several miles and stationed on the spot outside the artillery range of the fort.

He hasn't rested much these days, the back of his head hurts suddenly, and there are illusory double images in front of his eyes.Daniel sat in his tent, rubbed his face, and opened his eyes again after hearing footsteps outside, with a calm and gentle look in his eyes.

Those who came in were some of the priests he had summoned before, that is, the gray robes.There are complex patterns on their gray robes, showing their extraordinary status.They are the gray-robed people who have mastered the "Art of Truth", they are different from ordinary believers, and they are also the main combat force of the Church of Chaos.

There is a strict upper and lower structure in the Church of Chaos. Those gray robes are very respectful to Daniel. One of the gray robes volunteered and said: "The fortress can't be attacked for a long time. The commander on the opposite side is an important factor. In this case, why not Let us assassinate him. That way the fortress will be broken."

The gray-robed people would not dare to say such words in front of ordinary high-level church officials. If they were a little more sensitive, they would think that these people were mocking him for his improper command, and that he would not be able to take down even a fortress.However, Daniel has a very good reputation in the church, has a high reputation, and is admired by many gray robes and believers.Those in gray robes knew that they would never be blamed, so they dared to say this.

"Then go ahead. The offensive and defensive battle has just ended tonight, and they will relax. It is indeed a good idea." Daniel also instructed: "Be careful in everything. If you encounter any accidents, it is important to protect yourself."

Those gray-robed men left gratefully. Daniel sat in the tent for a while, and said to the attendants outside: "Don't let anyone in."

Afterwards, he lay down to rest, allowing himself to completely sink into the darkness.

Aldrich was standing at the window of the castle. He had just visited the wounded, and the logistics officer had reported to him the news that the medicine was insufficient.Aldridge said that there was still a batch of stock in the warehouse behind, and asked him to take it out.Although the quality is poor, it can barely cope with today's situation.

At that time, the logistics officer looked at him with the same eyes as Noah, and Aldridge couldn't help but relax. He always likes to store more things for emergencies, and ensures that Noah can take them out at any time if needed.

After the offensive and defensive battle was suspended, he cleared up the remaining materials and casualties, formulated the next defensive tactics, and arranged personnel adjustments.After everything was settled, he sat down and listened to the attendant tell him about the damage to the fort.

The valet was talking, and found that Aldrich had closed his eyes. He felt tight first, and then thought that the general hadn't closed his eyes for five days and nights. He felt distressed and admired at once, so he calmed down and prepared to let Aldrich rest. .However, only three breaths later, Aldrich opened his eyes again and said, "Go on."

"You can rest for a while." The valet said with concern.

"I've already rested." Aldrich stood up and smiled at him.He walked to the window and looked at the army and fortifications below. The battlefield was already far away, and farther away was the camp where Daniel was stationed.

Now that Daniel has occupied Epra Peak, if the fight continues, the Shilan Empire's army, supported by all the strength of the whole country, will definitely win...

The valet read the loss report for a while, and then heard Aldridge say, "Bring a pen and paper, I'll write two letters."

He was going to write letters to the Church of War and the Church of the Forest to ask for support. This was not just a battle between countries, but also a battle between different churches.The development of the Church of Chaos is not good news for any church. He simply stated the pros and cons in the letter, and then asked his valet to take the letter out.When he turned back, a sharp knife flashed across his throat.

Time stopped at this moment, and Aldrich became a spectator outside of time.

The owner of the knife was hiding under the gray robe. Besides him, there were dozens of gray robes hiding in this tower, and aimed their weapons at Aldrich.They sneaked in more easily than they thought, and were ready to strike when Aldridge was most defenseless.The moment he turned around, a gray-robed man with a knife appeared, stabbing his throat silently with the knife.This knife, he thought it was safe.

But with a flash of his eyes, Aldrich had completely disappeared, and then he felt a huge force, and when he reacted, he had been kicked to the wall, and Aldrich was holding a cold silver long sword. The sword pierced the chest of another gray robed man.

What ability is this?Teleport?No... there are some differences.

There was no time for him to think, the assassin with the knife pressed his hands, and all the gray robes disappeared without a trace again.

The ability of the gray robe.

This ability is really troublesome, Aldrich looked around vigilantly, for the safety of others, he could not escape this dangerous room.A gray-robed man attacked, and Aldridge manipulated the time to narrowly dodge the sharp edge, but more gray-robed men attacked him from the shadows.

"Advanced Defense Domain!" A clear voice sounded, protecting Aldrich, and at the same time, magicians from the White Tower flew in through the window: "Your Excellency, we smell the breath of the gray-robed man! I'm sorry I'm late!"

Another magician shouted: "Apparition!"

All the gray-robed men were uncontrollably exposed to the field of vision, and they were also quite well-trained. One of the gray-robed men raised a cloud of black mist, and the other gray-robed man blew up the walls of the fortress, and all the assassins took the opportunity to escape. go out.The magicians followed without hesitation, and Aldrich shouted: "Don't chase too deep!" Then they were completely invisible.

After a while, those mages came back. They didn't have any losses, but they didn't catch the gray robed man.They said angrily: "The methods of those gray-robed men are too strange. We chased to the camp of the Shilan Empire, only set a fire, and then came back." The fire was stopped by the gray-robed men with their abilities. The magician feels that the ability of the gray robe is really weird, especially restricting the magician's display.

Another magician said: "Those gray-robed people are very powerful. If they were converted to the level of a magician, they would be at the level of a great magician or a magister. Who is the commander on the other side who can summon so many high-ranking officers?" Gray-robed person."

Aldrich thought that other people might not be able to, but Daniel obviously had extraordinary means.

"No wonder you didn't let us take action before." The magician said: "Because you didn't consume any power before, you can gain the upper hand in the battle with the gray robes. In terms of strength, they are no worse than us."

Aldrich said with a smile: "Next, you will not be able to relax."
