"Oil?" General Terendez raised his brows lightly and didn't care too much. This dilapidated military town could store such things as commonplace. It's just that the age is so old that it can't be used even if it's not volatile.

Seeing that the chief did not take this to heart, Dmitry reported some results. It was nothing more than the discovery of some old weapon arsenals, but the equipment was broken copper and iron from more than a hundred years ago, and the cellar granary was also rotten. Terrenders soon lost interest in the wheatgrass.

"General."

"Forget it, it's just an extravagant hope in itself, you can't blame you." Terendez waved his hand. He knew that he couldn't force others, and the young people in front of him had done their best.

"My lord, should we send people down the mountain to collect food, maybe we can support it for a while." Dmitry suggested. Although this is a border area, he still remembers that there are some villages around him on the way. Maybe there can be a solution to the urgent needs of the military.

But Terendez shook his head when he heard it, "The mountain is barren, even if it is there, it's a drop in the bucket. Moreover, it is the season when we can't collect food for a few days. Instead, the villagers may starve to death." In a few days, if there is no more news, you will bring a group of people to contact south to see what happened to the south." It has been too long to receive contact, and sent several waves of people into the sea like oxen, the old Tyrender. Si already felt that something was faintly wrong.

"My lord, you have sent several calls. If I leave again, your side—"

"It's definitely not a long-term solution to stay here. I have a hunch that something big will happen. It's better for you to leave this place of right and wrong soon." Terendez looked at the young man in front of him and said earnestly. This has already sent people away from here more than once, and there are only some old and weak around, and Little Dmitry is the only young man left here.

"Then general, you might as well leave with us!" Of course, knowing that the officer was working hard, Dmitry was reluctant to leave Pebble Fort alone with tears in his eyes, trying to persuade Terendez.

Terendez said: "I still have those old guys here who are different from you. We swore to the prince to be stationed here. Even if there is only one soldier left, we will never leave our duty without permission, and you still The road is still long after you are young, and you cannot die here in vain. I have decided that tomorrow you will take your team down the mountain."

The candlelight in the military tent illuminates the old general's white hair, and the face carved by the wind knife and frost sword is full of determination. Looking at him, little Dmitry still wanted to say something, but he finally gave up the idea of ​​preparing to persuade. At this moment, the old and the young seemed to have reached a certain tacit understanding, and being speechless is worth a thousand words, and the flickering lights reflected the light and shadow of the two on the curtain behind.

At this moment, the sudden shouting and noise broke the silent night. How could this happen, Terendez and Dmitry became alert. Soon the flames suddenly appeared outside the tents and both of them were shocked and inexplicably shocked. Could it be that there was a fire in the castle? Walking out of the tent without hesitation, Dmitry and Terendez just looked up, and saw the "meteor" engulfed in flames slamming on their heads from the sky.

"Hurry up!"

"Be careful! There is an enemy attack!"

An exclaimed warning sounded from his side, and the guards who leaped on threw the two down, and then they avoided the fatal blow. When Dmitry reacted, he turned his head and looked behind him, but he saw where they were standing. Even the military account was smashed into a huge fire pit by the flaming "meteor".

"What's this?" Dmitry, who didn't understand the situation at all, murmured to escape the catastrophe.

General Terendez on the side was more calm. He saw at a glance that this was not caused by a meteor from the sky. "It's a counterweight stone thrower. I saw this thing when I went to the Holy Land decades ago. , Can bring it here, it looks like we are in big trouble."

Looking at the guard on the side, Terendez asked, "How is the situation?"

The guard reported: "Still sending people to check. The sky is too dark. Please send the army to the city wall to preside over the overall situation." No preparations were made at all. Pebble Fort did not expect the enemy to come back at night, and the mountain road was the most rugged Therefore, the defenders in the city are now in chaos, and Terendez is in desperate need to calm the army.

The old general did not hesitate at all. He looked at Little Dmitry who had also calmed down, and smiled: "It looks like there is no way to drive you away."

"Even if you are driving me, I won't leave." Dmitry patted his chest, showing his determination to fight side by side.

Terendez nodded and said: "Then send your company to join me to meet the enemy over the wall."

"Yes, my general."

...

Although the name of Pebble Fort is a castle, its architectural structure is not a Western-style fortress. In addition to being in disrepair, its walls are dilapidated and low, and at the same time very thin. But thanks to this, all the counterweight trebuchets that came over had too high a projection range, stone bullets and asphalt barrels fell into the city, but even so, the soldiers defending the city on the front of the city were scared by this sudden posture. You can't panic all day long.

There was a sound of killing in the dark night, and there was nothing else to see. The only thing I could feel was that the dull pace was getting closer and closer here. The nervous garrison subconsciously stuck his head out and looked down the tower. Suddenly, a straight "black snake" jumped up the city wall from the thick fog of the night, with two sharp "fangs" on the head. Biting on the female wall, he jumped and fell heavily to the ground. When the torch lights up on the city, the defenders of Pebble Fort discovered that there was a "black snake" just now, but a ladder. At the same time, more ladders were erected on the city. More and more, the sound of the ladder and city bricks was full of rhythm and oppression. It was not until a roar that awakened the guards who were shocked in place.

"What are you guys doing in a daze, do you want to die here!" As soon as the general Terendez ascended to the top of the city, he berated everyone with a thunder and invisible force.

"Everyone immediately returned to their posts and prepared to fight. The enemy is about to ascend the tower! The soldiers of the Fourth and Fifth Battalions take your weapons to meet the enemy."

The words of the old general seemed to contain infinite power. The Pebble Fort defenders who were still panicked all cheered up, and the chaotic towers became tidy and orderly. At this time, Dmitry also brought his company to support ~www.wuxiahere.com~ and also brought a lot of rolling logs, these things were found in the old warehouse, and they were just ready for use.

Seeing this, Terendez nodded. This is what is needed. Although the accuracy is not high in the dark, it is constantly causing casualties to the enemy troops who have climbed into the city.

"The enemy is coming up!" The alert soldier shouted when he heard the movement.

Without delay, General Terendez immediately asked Dmitry to distribute the equipment that defended the city to the others, and then yelled, "Fall down the boulders! First smash down their forwards, and then shoot their bows and arrows!" All of a sudden! In the hundreds of previous exercises in Terendez, the defenders of the Pebble Fort had already had a tacit understanding, so the rolling logs and stones fell one after another, and then the bowmen in charge of the sniping went into the darkness. The climbing enemy returned with a strong bow and a hard crossbow. Sure enough, there were constant screams from the enemy troops under the city, but neither Dmitry nor Terendez showed a small smile. With such a dense attack on the enemy, there is no doubt that the opponent in the dark is not good. , And in the seesaw of both sides, the Pebble Fort is undoubtedly about to turn into a place of death.
