章 273: How It Happened - 4

Screams filled the air as the men fell -- even after they had all fallen. Most of them had fallen and broken their necks, legs, ribs, or arms.

The men launched arrows, catapults, stones, and spears all at the same time. It was not even uniformed any longer and didn't appear like the attack had come from one front as the soldiers now had fear resident in their hearts -- some had even lost all hope.

Thress was even nowhere to be found at this point of the situation.
