The Charltonians on the manor wall kept yelling and cursing.

They were not afraid of the cavalry outside the manor.

Since the owner of the manor didn't want to see this heroic young noble outside.

And the cavalry on the opposite side had nothing to do with the attendants on the city wall, so the people on the city wall started cursing.

Lynn squinted and noticed that a guy with a strong mountain accent and a sharp duck voice scolded the worst.

Looking at his spittle, he almost took the cavalry of the Lynn Guards outside as a vent.

Lin En pointed at the city wall, his face was icy cold, "Skinny monkey, remember that guy, after the city was broken, you skinned him!"

"Ah! My lord, this skill is also possessed by the people of Terror Castle, but subordinates can't."

Lynn glared at him, "Then why don't I send you to the flayer's territory for further education?"

When Sterling heard the words, he was silent.

I have to say that in order to prepare for war, the manors in Hejiandi are very tall.

Especially the estates left over from the Usurper's War, they all experienced the baptism of war.

Each manor spared no expense in those years, and they heightened and thickened their walls one after another.

The wall in front of Lynn seemed to be a few years old. It was so thick that it couldn't be called a wall. It even had the feeling of a city wall.

There is even a special lookout hole under the archer's crenel at the top of the wall for reconnaissance, and it can also provide arrows for crossbowmen who can only shoot flat.

There are also the city walls on both sides of the main gate, which is even more outrageous.

It's all built with stones, which is not much better than the materials used for the city walls of Twin Rivers.

Because the manor is located in a mountain pass, many materials for the walls are omitted.

The other three sides of the manor are surrounded by mountains, and the sloping stone slopes are the best natural barrier.

This is a manor, it's like a castle.

Lynn looked at the surrounding terrain. If it was a strong attack, it would be very troublesome. The area that the opponent needed to defend was very small. Even if they brought two trebuchets, it would be difficult to break through the enemy's city defense.

Of course, if Lynn is aggressive, he will directly transport all the trebuchets outside the Twin Rivers to the door, that is, even if there is a tortoise shell on this manor, it will have to peel back.

Lynn didn't plan to do this. He attacked a manor with dozens of trebuchets, and it was estimated that people would die of laughter when rumors spread.

Medieval siege armies used a variety of siege weapons, such as ladders, battering rams, siege towers, crossbows, trebuchets, and more. They also used the method of digging tunnels under the city wall, and by destroying the foundation of the wall, the city wall collapsed.

Of course, besieging a city without food is also a good choice.

However, these above methods are not very practical for the current situation. Others have strong city walls and are surrounded by mountains on three sides.

How hard it was for the city wall army in the early Middle Ages to break the city, you can see how tough the 5,000 guards of King's Landing were when they defended the 100,000 army of Stannis.

Sitting on a piece of bluestone, the idiot Guftavo used a giant axe to chop down the thick oak under his feet, cutting both ends of the oak into sharp points.

Hanniu had a lot of strength, and in a short while, his feet were full of piles of pointed oaks.

In Lynn's Knights of Guards, except for Duncan, who led a team of 20 people to keep alert outside the city, everyone else dismounted and dismounted and joined the cutting queue.

"Sir, do you really plan to summon some more legions?"

Sterling stood on the bluestone, watching the movement on the manor's city wall, watching Lynn there, chewing wild fruits picked from the mountain, and couldn't help asking.

This kind of small round fruit is the favorite berry of the common people in the long summer season. The fruit is small and round, and it tastes sweet and sour. In fact, you can eat a lot of delicious food without spending money.

As the berries ate down, Lynn patted her bulging belly and stood up.

After two hours of work, there were already more than one hundred pointed oaks stacked on the ground. After estimating the width of the opposite city wall, Lynn was very satisfied with the current progress.

Standing up, he handed the remaining berries to the cow beside him.

After burping and expelling the sour gas from the berries, Lynn smiled and said to Sterling, "I also want to summon an army of tens of thousands of people. Even if I don't need it, it looks impressive, but I can't. You are all human, and if you are human, you have to eat.

Counting the grain we seized in Twin Rivers City and the surplus grain in the fishing village port, even if we support an army of ten thousand people, it will not take long, three days, just three days! We have to drink the northwest wind. "

And the army's rations are not enough to chew during the war. For example, if you capture the city in three days, if you loot all the grain in the city before the enemy lord sets fire to his own granary, it will be fine, you can maintain the army. to the next siege.

If you can't find enough food in the city, the scene you will face will be catastrophic.

The skinny monkey can't understand the truth of the adults.

However, he was indeed a little hungry, although it was still within the tolerance range.

But seeing Han Niu stuffing the berries into his mouth randomly, without any intention of sharing it with his good brother, he became angry.

It makes sense for Lin En to reward Hanniu.

Two hundred sharp oaks, half of which were made from Hanniu's bronze axe~www.wuxiahere.com~ I was busy from the afternoon to the west of the sun, and the pile of sharp wood in front of Lynn was taller than a human being. .

Lynn patted his **** and stood up, "Almost. Insert these oak stakes diagonally all over the gate of Charlton Manor, and we'll call it a day and go back."

Guftavor re-pinned the bronze axe on his back, and the huge man stood up from Lynn's side, like a hill.

"Sir, what's the use of these things, let's go back, and the people in the manor came out at night to pull them out. Isn't that a waste of time?"

Lin En slapped Han Niu on the back of his hand. This was the place where he could go to Han Niu, where his skin was the thinnest. Unless the other party actively lowered his head, he would be asking for trouble if he hit him.

"Stupid! It's so easy for them to pull these things out, so they're not afraid of being shot by arrows?"

Han Niu snorted, "Isn't this still a siege? Even these guys deserve to have adults accompany them to spend time with them?"

Lynn smiled coldly, "I didn't have much interest in this manor from the beginning. The wheat fields outside are about to ripen, and there is only one season of rations a year. Let's harvest all their grains, even if they make it through this year, It will be sad next year.

Moreover, more than 500 oaks that are as sharp as spears have blocked their gates. We only need to station a dozen bowmen and crossbowmen here, and we can contain hundreds of people in the entire manor. Why not? for. "

hold fast?

The corner of Lynn's mouth twitched, to see who guards who!

That's what war is really like.

You think that you are not afraid of the opponent, so you are ready to wait for the enemy to attack, and you want to rely on Chengjian Spear to fight to the death.

However, don't forget that the initiative in the war is the most important thing. It's just a manor built along a mountain. Do you really consider yourself a pass for a military important place?
