Chương 192: Chapter 192 Alvin’s Little Thoughts
Kaho City.
After receiving Luce's order, Kerby took immediate action.
An army of 5,000 people launched a charge towards the city of Kaho. There was no fancy moves, it was just a direct death charge.
Under the cover of the shield soldiers, the siege ladders and battering rams began to exert their power.
Saigon calmly commanded the soldiers defending the city to throw down the huge rocks.
The boulder was wrapped with rattan soaked in kerosene, and the rattan had a lot of barbs on it.
After clearing a wave of siege soldiers with boulders, Saigon immediately ordered people to ignite the vines on the boulders with burning arrows.
Life is the least valuable on the battlefield, especially in siege warfare, which is the most brutal.
There were wailing soldiers everywhere, and broken limbs flying everywhere, constantly impacting the soldiers' brains and wills.
Especially Kerby, as the party attacking the city, his losses were very heavy, but he could not disobey Luce's orders, so he could only pay with his lives.
"Go, assemble the catapults and cover the ramming attack." Kerby ordered.
Kerby originally didn't want to use catapults because they were too big to be targeted. If they collapsed the city walls, it would be difficult to defend after the occupation.
But the resistance of Kaho City was too tenacious. After receiving Luce's letter, he sent people to persuade Segon to surrender, promising that as long as he opened the gate and surrendered, he could keep his position as Count of Kaho City.
As a result, the messenger was brutally skinned and stripped of his tendons by Saigon and thrown under the city wall.
For Segun, Kerby's envoys who persuaded him to surrender were simply an insult to him. Moreover, he had seen Clark Hugh and would never surrender.
If you don't surrender, you can still hold the city, but if you surrender, it won't be long before the dragon comes and eats you alive.
Saigong was very clear about which was more important, and he didn't hesitate at all.
So even though skinning and pulling out the messenger's tendons might boost the morale of his opponent, he still brutally killed the messenger to show his position.
This approach did boost the morale of Kerby's men and made them united in their hatred of the enemy, but the morale of the members of the Sen tribe also increased significantly.
For the Thenns, they had never fought such a prosperous war. Compared with the previous battles with others without city walls, defending the city was much easier.
According to Kerby's request, fifteen catapults were quickly assembled. Kerosene was not a secret weapon, and Kerby naturally had it in his hands.
With an order, fifteen huge rocks burning with blazing flames flew towards the city of Kaho.
The huge stone fell with tremendous force on the city wall and the buildings behind it.
Seeing this, Saigon immediately ordered people to reload the catapults on the city wall, "Aim at those catapults and destroy them all."
"Chief, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defeat them. Those catapults are at the edge of their effective range and are not so easy to hit."
Hearing his men say this, Saigon roared: "Just tell me who can knock down a catapult, and I will reward him with a bottle of fine red wine!"
"yes!"
A bottle of red wine can fetch dozens of silver coins, which is a very generous reward.
The two sides remained in a stalemate, and Kerby would launch a fierce attack every once in a while, preparing to rely on his numerical advantage to force open the city of Kaho.
And Saigon temporarily returned to the hall of Castle Kaho.
After returning to the castle hall, Segon immediately asked his scholars and advisors to write a letter and send it to the Last Hearth.
The troops attacking Kaho City were elite troops under Luce, and Kerby, who led them ,
was also a talented commander.
Although there are no strange military tactics in the world of Game of Thrones, even if Kerby attacked the city step by step, the city of Kaho could not withstand it.
The current Kaho City is no longer the Kaho City of the past. Not only did it experience the War of the Five Kings, but it was also taken away by Alvin and its supplies were looted.
After that, the entire city of Kaho was sustained by supplies from the Last Hearth City.
Although Saigon is determined to defend the city, many things cannot be achieved by determination alone.
According to Daenerys, the city of Kaho must not be lost.
If you really can't hold on any longer, write a letter and use a raven to ask for help.
Never be stubborn or show off just for the sake of face.
On the other hand, the situation in Deepwood Motte is different from that in Kaho.
The situation in Deepwood Motte is much better than that in Kaho.
Kasa is like an accurate radar, and he is familiar with the terrain of Wolf Forest.
The army under Luce has been led by Kasa since entering the Wolf Forest.
The terrain of the Wolf Forest is complex, and the leader of the team is Alwen Karstark, who is the uncle of Alys Karstark.
It was he who took away the manpower and supplies of the city of Kaho and then defected to Roose Bolton.
Originally, Luce was going to let Alvin follow him, but Alvin took the initiative to ask to lead people to Deepwood Motte.
For this reason, Roose did not persuade him too much, but only asked him to just entangle Deepwood Motte and attack Deepwood Motte after the Greyjoys arrived.
However, Alvin did not take Roose's words to heart. Deepwood Motte was not strong, and suffered heavy losses when they went south during the War of the Five Kings.
Alvin is ready to take the initiative and directly capture Deepwood Motte to prove himself.
Because when he defected to the Bolton family, he only brought people and supplies. In the eyes of other vassals who supported the Bolton family, this was abandoning the city and fleeing.
Otherwise, Kaho City would definitely be in their hands now, and there would be no need to bother with a violent attack.
This made Alvin extremely frustrated. These people could only bark like dogs and were talking without any hesitation while standing.
At that time, Ali Karstark obtained the support of Jack, and rushed towards the city of Kaho with thousands of people with murderous intent, but was careless.
If he didn't retreat, the best outcome would be lifelong house arrest.
He didn't want that kind of life, so taking people and supplies and evacuating to the Dreadfort was the best option.
However, as soon as they entered the wolf forest, they encountered an ambush, and dozens of bows and arrows took away more than 20 of them.
The most disgusting thing is that the opponent ran away without a trace after shooting a wave, and none of the scouts sent out came back.
Faced with this hit-and-run approach, Alvin's face turned red with anger.
Because the terrain in the forest is not suitable for large-scale military marches, and there is guerrilla harassment.
This has resulted in fighting breaking out in both Kaho and Last Hearth, and they are still half a day's journey from Deepwood Motte.
Arvin Karstark became irritated by the thought of the confident assurances he had given when he left.
Alvin ordered the troops not to chase those who ran away after shooting arrows, and to head towards Deepwood Motte at full speed.
At this time, the deputy commander following Alvin was very dissatisfied. He was also an earl and looked down on Alvin very much, so he spoke very rudely.
"Sir Alvin, even though Duke Bolton has appointed you as the commander, it does not mean that you can act recklessly and do something ridiculous."
Alvin's face flushed and he said angrily, "Mattek, what do you mean? I'm the commander, are you questioning me?"
