章節 17: Desperate
Arden Entered A Province That Is Unknown To Him, He And His Army Are Trying To Find the Allies That Are Camping Somewhere.
5 Days Have Passed Since Meeting the King In The Capital. Arden Found The Army At A Big City Called Tilsonburg.
The Same Case As Sir Aswick. The 20000 Has Been Decimated To 2000, He Quickly Met Sir Valencio And Sir Rakham.
Discussing A Good Strategy To Win The War, Some Of The Strategy Are Fighting On A Field, Defending The Castle.
And Then, Arden Came Up With A Brilliant Strategy, He Will Takes His Army Using The Mountain Route And Then Go Straight And Held the Barbarian King A Hostage.
But The Other Didn't Agree, They Decided To Play Defensive Not Offensive So They Decided To Defend The City.
There Are 5000 Soldiers On The City Including Arden's Army. Based On What They See, The Enemy Have 30 Thousand Troops At First, Now Reduced To 15 Thousand.
But Arden Decided To Not Think about It Anymore And Just Goes To Sleep. He Did The Normal Thing He Did When He Woke Up And Goes To Train The Soldiers.
15 Days Have Passed Since He Arrived To The City, While He Was Training The Soldiers. Someone Came To Rushed To Him.
Sign Of Walking Without Resting, Bad Things To Happen. While Smiling, Arden Asked
"What Can I Help You With?"
"My... My Lord, There Is Barbarian's Army At The South Of This City, They Will Arrive Here Tomorrow."
Arden Is Shocked, He Began Panicking But Can Hide It Well And Calmed Himself Down. Arden Asked Again.
"How Many?"
"20 Thousand"
He Is Now Really Panicked And Then Goes Straight To The Dukes.
Both Of Them Are Shocked Too That Their Jaw Dropped.
"They Must Have Got Back To Their Country To Recruit More People."
They Started Discussing The Same Thing As 15 Days Ago Again And Still Decided To Use The Same Strategy.
Arden Told The Soldiers To Prepare For Tomorrow And There Is Clearly A Sign Of Panic In The Face Of The Soldiers.
Day Became Night And Night Turned Back To Day, Tomorrow Has Come. Men Stationed At The Wall.
Ready To Repel Any Invader For Their Kingdom. At Noon, There Is Still No Sign Of People Coming To Attack The City.
And Then, In The Distance, A Person Can Be Seen, Using A Leather Armor And Fur. And One More Can Be Seen, More And More Coming.
It's Not Wrong What The Men Said Yesterday, Something Like 20 Thousand Soldiers Can Be Seen, Sieging The City.
With Their Camp Out Of The Range Of The Bow, Nothing Much Can Be Done From Inside The City.
They Can Only Wait Until The Enemy Attacked. Day Turn Into Night And Night Turned Into Day.
It Has Been 3 Month Since The Enemy Start Sieging, There Is Many Small Skirmishes But Most Of Them Can Be Repelled.
And Then, A Big And Long Sound Of Horn Can Be Heard From Outside The Wall. Being continued By A Person Screaming Charge!!!!!
Thousand Of Thousand Of Barbarians Charged the Wall, Carrying Ladder Above Their Head.
Arrows Are Shot At The Enemy, With Many Of Them Fell Dead Because Of The Lack Of Good Armor.
Then The Enemy Started To Climb The Wall. Arden's Army Started To Push The Ladder From The Wall
But Many Still Got On The Wall, Then The Fighting Break Out At The Wall, Many Of Barbarians Got Killed Climbing The Wall.
Many Got Killed By The Archers And The Half Of The Cavalry Just Doing Nothing Inside The City.
Arden Helped On The Wall Too, Killing Many Enemies He Saw And Helping The Other Soldiers That Are Being Pinned Down.
3 Hours Straight Fighting At The Wall And The Enemy Decided To Retreat. Enemy Casualties Being A Good 3 Thousand And Their Own Being 800.
Arden Decided That They Will Lost If They Keep Doing It Like This. 2 Months Have Passed Since The First Large Attack.
Many More Small Skirmishes Happened and Then Came The Second Attack.
The Same As The First Attack But They Are More Ready. The City Can Hold Out For 1 More Month Before The Food Is Gone.
The Barbarians Attacked The Wall, This Time Though, Arden Are Ready With Half Of The Cavalry And Half Of The Knight.
After A Good 1 Hour Of Soldiers Fighting In The Wall, Arden Opened The Door And Charged Out.
He And Others Ride Their Horse And Attacking The Enemy. Many Of Them Flee And The Others Just Rushed To The Camp.
In The Midst Of Battle, He Saw A Big Flag In The Middle Of The Camp And A Big Man Using Better Armor Than Others.
This Must Be Someone Important To The Enemy's Army. Arden Thought.
Riding Cisco, He Spurs The Horse And Tried To Lance The Man, But Failed. Instead, The Man Grabbed Arden And Then Forced Him To Goes Straight To The Ground.
He Was Still Shocked And Then Realized What Happened, He Made A Defensive Stance And Waited for The Man To Attack.
The Man With His Giant Axe Did A Over Head Attack But Arden Are Quicker, Arden Managed To Dodge And Attacked Him On The Torso.
They Are Both Dueling For A Good 15 Minutes Before The Man Started Attacking Aggressively And Given Out Many Opening To Arden.
Arden Slash That Man In The Stomach While The Man Was Making An OverHead Attack.
The Man However, Did Not Die. He Called His Guards To Protect Him While He Is Retreating.
The Guards Start Attacking Arden And He Is Quickly Overwhelmed. Fortunately, Many Knights Came To Aid Arden And Kille All The Guards Quickly.
But The Man Is Long Gone When The Knights Killed all The Guards. And The Siege Camp Are Burned Down
The Casualties On The Enemy side Is 6000, Meanwhile, On Arden Side, It's Only 1300.
After The Battle, The Nobles Are Gathered To A Meeting. After The Meeting, They Decided To Retreat To Another City And Abandon This City.
4 Months Have Passed Since They Abandon The City Before and Moved To A New City.
All The Time They Are At The City, The Barbarians Burned Down And Pillaged Many Villages.
Arden Couldn't Stand It Anymore, So One Day, He Gathered all The Nobles To A Meeting
Arden Came Up With A Dangerous Strategy, He Will Takes His Army Using The Mountain Route And Then Go Straight And Held the Barbarian King A Hostage.
At First, Both Dukes Disagreed, That's Too Dangerous To Do And Too Risky Too, But Arden Said.
"We Can't Delay Anymore, On The Long Term War, We Will Surely Suffer Defeat"
They Thought For it For A Bit And Then Sighed. Arden Continued
"This Might Be A Suicide Mission, But If You Don't Want To Come, I Won't Force You."
3 Nobles In Arden Army Didn't Want To Come And Stayed With Both Duke And Their Army.
But The Rest Of Them Are Brave. Their 2200 Men Army Came With Arden To This Dangerous Mission and Left The City With 1000 Men To Defend It Included the 200 Garrison.
