Chapter 81 Temptation
The night rain brought everyone's hair, clothes and even weapons to the stone arch bridge.
The first prisoners to catch the enemy were rough oak shields, under the heavy impact of the Twin City cavalry swung the meteor hammer splashing with rain.
It shattered without warning.
The sharp hammer with countless sharp edges and corners smashed into the prisoner's queue with huge inertia.
Bright red blood splashed everywhere, and the transparent rain in the air immediately dyed a layer of bright red.
Lin En looked at this scene from afar, with no turmoil on his face.
This is something that is expected.
The prisoner who was in the front row had no power to fight back, and was stabbed hammers and chains to reap their lives.
Ten prisoners died, and then ten.
Until the prisoners used their flesh and blood to stop the progress of the deadly heavy meteor hammer.
The only 70 prisoners left can finally try to extend their spears in their hands and stab at the cavalry that crashed into the queue.
However, the cavalry team, which had been through many battles in Hejian, had already prepared a backup plan.
After the meteor chain hammer rolled to the ground, the Twin City cavalry pulled out a spear that was only the length of an arm from behind.
The short spear was thrown into the queue with his hands, and the crowded prisoners were crowded.
Another muffled sound came out, and more than a dozen figures fell down.
Under a series of attacks by the enemy, the prisoners who were fleeing in their hearts began to flee.
How to fight this battle? They hadn't done anything yet, and nearly 100 people had lost more than 30%.
The regular cavalry will deal with such temporary miscellaneous teams, and this is the ending, which is no different from killing chickens and castrating dogs.
Commander Shi Fu sat on the horse, and after confirming that the thirty cavalry teams of Shigong Bridge, no other Twin City soldiers appeared.
He handed Lynn an inquiring look.
Lin En, who was protected in the middle by the soldiers of the Tiger Ben, had a cold face under the torch.
He listened to the screams of the prisoners' queue on the stone bridge ahead.
He returned a sure look to the attendant Knight Shifu.
Finally, as the temporary commander of the Tiger Bend, Shi Fu waved his hand and issued an order to the Tiger Bend crossbowman.
He shouted: "Bow Crossbow Team!"
"Shoot the arrow!"
"Shoot the arrow!"
"Swoosh swish swish swish!" The 3rd level Tiger Ben Group archer who had been ready to go instantly pulled the bowstrings. A dense sound of breaking through the air sounded, and arrows penetrated the rain curtain and shot directly at the back row of the Twin City Cavalry Team that was gradually approaching the bridgehead.
The level 3 crossbowman has a stronger and more stable control over the bow and arrow. Even if he is disturbed by rain, he aims and shoots within such a short distance, and his hit rate reaches a terrifying level.
The sound of arrows hitting the body sounded in a whole lot.
People kept getting caught from the horse and fell on the flat stone arch bridge where rain and blood intersected.
The prisoners who received the support of the bow and arrow finally took a breath.
"Kill them! Kill those cavalrymen, and those who survive will be free."
Shifu behind shouted loudly again.
The prisoners were so embarrassed that they were poured by the rain, and they immediately raised their heads. They passed the dead bodies of their companions, roared hideously, and slaughtered the Twin City cavalry ahead, whose formation was disturbed by archers.
"Kill!"
The short-strife of melee battles is staged again.
However, the balance of victory has already tended toward the prisoner ranks.
In the chaos, a Twin City cavalry turned around in a hurry.
Lynn understood that this meant that the tentative attack was over.
So he no longer pays attention to the already destined ending.
He instructed Shifu to continue guarding the bridgehead and fulfill his promise to let less than a dozen prisoners who could survive in the end and let them go.
It is judged that the Frey family should not launch another attack in a short period of time. Compared with Lynn's soldiers, his troops need more rest.
Lynn takes Arya and someone Jia Kun to a nearby tavern.
The owner of the tavern is a fat brown woman who is hiding behind the counter and is at a loss.
When Lynn's army invaded the east city of Twin City, most of the residents left the tavern, disappeared from all corners of the streets and alleys, and closed the door in advance.
However, here is a two-story structure and spacious enough for a tavern.
Recruited by Lynn, it was used as a resting place for the wounded soldiers of the Tiger Ben Regiment.
Lynn's last 41 points were redeemed for 8 battlefield medical soldiers, responsible for the care of more than 30 minorly injured soldiers placed here.
The current points of the system are only 1 point left.
Compared to the cold rainy nights outside, the tavern seems much gentler.
The charcoal fire in the fireplace was very strong, the fire was jumping, the tables and chairs in the tavern were piled up in a corner, and wounded soldiers of the Tiger Ben Group were lying on the ground. The battlefield medical soldiers were using needles, gauze and scissors to help these people do simple sewing.
Come to the bar counter of the tavern and sit down on three high feet.
Lynn first comforted Arya, who looked listless.
Then he asked someone Jia Kun how they escaped.
Someone told Lynn everything about the incident. When he heard that the bloody wedding had ended and the soldiers of the Stark family were slaughtered by the soldiers of the Frey family.
Lin En sighed lightly and said, "Since you entered the banquet hall at that time, you can see Danny... is the butler in the lord's mansion in the Fishing Village Harbor?"
Arya suddenly raised her head and interrupted, "Has Danny been invited to the wedding too?"
Lynn smiled bitterly.
He told him about Danny's kidnapping and his own speculation.
Arya immediately cursed indignation: "Ward Frey will not die well, one day I will kill him with my own hands."
Lynn's face was calm and his eyes were cold, saying, "Revenge is today."
Someone's eyes flashed, "His Excellency Lynn, your soldiers don't seem to be enough to take down the entire Twin City. Maybe tomorrow morning the soldiers of the Frey family will be able to completely judge your number of soldiers. At that time, they will go all out and kill the stone arch bridge."
"My reinforcements are on the way."
Someone stared at Lynn and said, "Although I don't know where your army is now moved, if your reinforcements refer to the limited troops in the Fishing Village Harbor, it may not be enough to defeat the Frey family."
Lynn smiled unanimously.
The fat proprietress of the trembling tavern took the wine glass from the hand of the trembling fat bar and took a slight sip.
Indeed, with all the armed forces at your disposal, it is difficult to fight to the death with the 2,000 soldiers of the Frei family in Twin City.
Even if the system soldiers have the advantages of being brave and fearless, absolute loyalty, and high discipline.
It is also difficult to win this decisive victory with twice the force of the opponent.
Lynn fiddled with the ceramic wine glass in his hand and said with a deep look: "What if the Ze people's army in Neck Sawa Graywater Fortress and the Greyjoy family in the Iron Islands?"
Arya interrupted, "Linn...this is impossible!"
Born in the Stark family, Erya has been influenced by power and disputes since she was a child, and has personally experienced it in Junlin City. Her father Ned Stark, from the prime minister to the traitor, was executed.
Now, in Twin City, she almost witnessed her closest mother and elder brother Robb’s death.
Arya realized that behind the bloody continent of Westeros, there was a big drama of power hidden.
So, Erya didn't believe what Lin En said.
No benefit, even if her aunt and the mistress of Ailing Valley would not send valley soldiers to avenge her sister Caitlin.
What about the enemy of the Iron Islands who just sneaked into Winterfell, or the Ze people who had a little connection with the northern border?
Lynn reached out and slapped Arya's little head.
Gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
