Char didn't hit Manninger with an arrow, and he regretted it in his heart. sighed in my heart: If my Gathering Bow is still there, even if this arrow can't kill this old boy, at least it can make him hang the lottery, and in that case, it will be very good for the morale of the people.
His Gathering Howling Bow has already been destroyed in the snake cave of Damandras, in the last battle, the underground river water was polluted by magma, with a strong corrosive surname, Char finally fell into the river water in order to save Ah Cai and Su Ling, although he did not die in the end, but most of the things on his body were destroyed in the corrupted river water, which corroded the super strong river water and even the iron essence of the texture can be corroded, not to mention the Gathering Howling Bow.
Although he regretted in his heart, he didn't know that Manninger under the city wall was even more shocked, although Manninger blocked the arrow shot by Char with a knife, but the blade was broken, and his arm trembled slightly, but before the army, he pretended to be calm on the surface, laughed long, and shouted: "When I break the city gate, I will definitely cut you" After speaking, Manninger rode his horse back into his array, he turned over and dismounted, and as soon as he landed, there was a leader of his tribe next to him who came to support, as soon as he touched Manninger's arm, Manninger suddenly snorted, pushed away others, raised his hand, and saw that his palm was full of blood, he took a breath and sneered: "This Char really has some ability, no wonder in the last war, even Hastings failed to kill him." ” He glanced at the many tribal leaders next to him, and suddenly shouted: "He has such a warrior in Byzantium, is it possible that our Bashak warriors are weak, and any of you can break through this city first, and all the slaves in this city will belong to this person."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was immediately excited, and several brave leaders in the tribe shouted one after another, and after asking for orders, they went down to rectify their soldiers and prepared to attack the city.
I have to say that the short time of one or two days that Green won Char was very fully utilized, at least when the Red Snow Army was preparing to attack the city, they were disappointed to find that there were no woods around the city that could be cut down to make siege equipment.
Although their army was numerous, after all, they had traveled a long way to Byzantium, and they only brought a little rations, let alone siege equipment.
But the Odin were fierce by nature, and Manninger offered such a generous reward, and before evening, the Odin launched their first siege.
Because there were no siege equipment, this time the Odin attack was just to let some Odin warriors shoot at the defenders on the city wall with bows and arrows in the back, trying to suppress the defenders on the city wall with a bow and arrow, and then several teams of Odin warriors on the ground took the opportunity to rush towards the city gate, holding something that was ignited, trying to set fire to the city gate and burn the city gate.
But the Odin people were not good at archery in the first place, and the city wall was condescending, after all, the Odin people's back shooting suffered a big loss, and several beats of sharp wooden stakes had been planted under the city wall, leaving only a passage in the middle of the city gate, and the Odin charge was forced to crowd on the middle passage, and the Byzantine defenders on the city wall shot more easily.
As for the intention of trying to ignite the fire, although it also successfully rushed to the city gate, a lot of stones were suddenly smashed on the city tower, and more than a dozen Odin warriors gathered under the city gate were stoned to death on the spot, and as for the flames, they did not have time to rise at all.
The Odin then organized a larger attack, this time sending at least a thousand warriors to charge, and these Odin braved the rain of arrows on the city walls, but instead of attacking the city gates directly, they ran to clear the rows of wooden stakes under the walls.
The Odin warriors, all in armor and heavy axes, roared and roared upwards, rushed to the front of the stake, slashed hard, cut the stake, and then immediately teleported to the back.
Char on the city wall saw it in his eyes and sneered: "Ha, they are here to grab firewood" Then the archers were ordered to shoot in the direction of the front of the stake.
At this time, although the Odin people forcibly cut down two rows of wooden stakes and snatched a hundred and ten, they left more than a hundred corpses.
Almost exchanging a life for a wood, such a tragic price made Manninger frown when he saw it in the military formation.
It wasn't until dawn that the Odin's attacks finally stopped.
Almost half of the wooden stakes under the walls had been removed, and after they were carried back, the craftsmen among the Odin began to speed up the process of making instruments.
Manninger also ordered the warriors to rest and recuperate, and when the rations were almost exhausted, he still ordered some of the rations to be taken out to feed the besieging teams.
In the morning, the Odin embarked on one of the largest siege battles, and a rudimentary siege wagon made of improvised wooden stakes was pushed out, with wooden wheels installed under it, and a thick layer of animal skins on the stakes to ward off the arrows, and the thickest piece of striking wood was hung in the middle.
One hundred and ten Odin warriors crowded around, shouting and roaring and pushing the siege cart towards the city gate, and there were many Odin warriors holding shields behind them, and Manninger's order, the archers in the army also began to continue shooting, shooting at the defenders on the city wall, using bows and arrows to suppress the bows and arrows on the city walls.
Such an attack is almost filled with human lives Although Char shouted loudly on the city wall to supervise the battle, but the quality of the defenders was not high after all, although condescending, but the quality of the archers was too low, and the quality of the soldiers was far inferior to the Odin, after fighting all night, he was already tired, but the Odin people had a large number of people to rotate.
Gradually, the Odin pushed the siege cart under the city gate Seeing that although the Odin people left a lot of corpses along the way, but when those Odin people saw that the siege engine was pushed under the city gate, their morale was greatly boosted, and they shouted one after another, and for a time the roar of tens of thousands of people overwhelmed the shouts of killing on the city wall The Odin warriors under the siege vehicle have been damaged a lot, but once someone falls, there will naturally be Odin warriors behind him, and one hundred and ten people will push the siege vehicle under the city gate, and immediately begin to hit the door.
In the midst of the banging sound, the Odin people shouted and roared wildly, and the morale on the city wall was significantly weakened.
Manninger, who was in the distance, saw it in his eyes, and immediately took the opportunity to pull out his long knife and shouted: "The Bashak warriors are breaking through the city at this moment."
At this time, suddenly more than a dozen heads appeared in the city tower, pouring more than ten barrels of liquid from the city tower, these liquids were viscous and black, and all of them were immediately poured into the siege vehicle and the Odin warriors next to it, and then several torches penetrated from the city tower, and suddenly there was a bang, and the city gate turned into a sea of fire The siege engine was turned into a huge ball of fire, and the hundreds and ten Odin warriors around it also ran in all directions screaming and fleeing, many of them were covered in flames, rolling back and forth on the ground, and some were killed by the arrows and crossbows falling from the city wall just a few steps Manninger in the back was furious, but instead shouted: "Although the fire hurts our warriors, it will also burn their gates, and the warriors will move forward."
He jumped on his horse and raised his sword, and suddenly rushed out of the brigade of Odin warriors around him Char stood on the city wall, holding a bow and arrow, although his archery skills are not top-notch, but much stronger than those defenders, every arrow shot, the city will inevitably be shot down an Odin, he shot continuously in one breath, the quiver is empty three, and still shouting to fight hard, although the defenders around him are weak, but there are Alfrecat and Hawke, the two original mercenary warrior leaders, plus the original mercenaries, are fierce people, still fighting to the death, seeing that the defenders are afraid, it seems that they want to retreat and flee, Char suddenly dropped the bow and arrow, slashed a deserter down with a knife, stood on the city tower and shouted: "Cowards are killed, regardless of your family and relatives are in the city, once the city is broken, under the butcher's knife of the Odin, all the doors will be wiped out, and the people will fight with these guys."
With him holding a knife to supervise the battle, coupled with his shouting, suddenly those cowardly defenders plucked up their courage, after all, Char told the truth, many of the defenders are locals in the city, the fierce reputation of the Odin people is too strong, every time they fight, they don't leave prisoners, even if they retreat at this moment, once the city is broken, it is still a dead end, it is better to fight.
The fire under the city gate was soaring, seeing that although the siege vehicle was burned, but the door panel of the city gate was also ignited, for a time the fire was raging, and the Odin people were excited, rushing towards the city gate, although the arrows above their heads rained down, but once these barbarian races in the north became fierce, they were really not afraid of death, although people kept falling from arrows, but no one flinched.
Char saw that many of the Odin people rushed to the city gate, and immediately laughed: "It's time to smash" A team of mercenary warriors who were originally hidden in the city tower rushed out, all of them were selected strong and powerful people, carrying large pieces of boulders and other things dismantled from the city and slamming them down under the city gate, and the Odin people under the city gate had already been crowded into a ball, so smashed down, they didn't even need to aim, and suddenly many of the Odin people below were smashed on their backs, and some people were smashed into meat on the spot Char laughed wildly, grabbed a stone the size of a millstone and smashed it, and a leader of the Odin Bashak tribe was directing his warriors to rush forward, and suddenly saw a black overhead, and as soon as he raised his head, he was crushed underneath and turned into a meat pie Manninger still refused to give up, although he saw that his men were injured a lot, but he knew that his current situation was not waiting for anyone, if he could not forcibly take this city and get supplies, his tens of thousands of troops would be without food and water today Finally, I heard the sound of the Odin calling from the people in front of me.
"The gates are boiled, boiled" Hearing this voice, Manninger's heart was originally happy, but when he sat on the horse and looked at it, he couldn't help but scream, and his voice was full of resentment I saw that although the city gate was burned down, and the Odin people smashed it, it finally cracked and collapsed, but under the city gate, it was already blocked by a hill of rocks and earth Seeing this, Manninger finally made a decision in his heart, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Tell the trumpet to blow the trumpet and let the warriors come back" His heart was dripping blood, but he couldn't help but look up at Char's figure on the city wall.
What a ruthless boy He actually blocked the city gates by himself As the commander of the Odin, Manninger was naturally not an amateur when it came to marching and fighting.
The lonely city was besieged, and the defenders themselves blocked the city gates, which was undoubtedly a clear determination to die Because generally speaking, even if the city is besieged, the defenders will not choose to block the city gate by themselves, if they come, they will block the city gate and cut off the way to break through the siege, and second, once reinforcements come from the outside world, they will not be able to enter the city to rescue Obviously, the defenders of Denzel City are clearly in a posture of living and dying with the city This blocked gate is to tell Manninger: we don't plan to run and don't expect reinforcements to die together After the besieging army came down, Manninger rode around in front of the battle, looking at the tall walls of Denzel, annoyed and anxious.
His tens of thousands of troops came here, and under normal circumstances, even if the enemy army had the will to fight to the death, he would definitely not be able to resist himself.
But the problem is that they have no food, no siege equipment, and although there are many people, they can't let the soldiers hit the city wall with their heads Although the defenders burned the woods near the city, after all, there are mountains and forests in the distance, as long as you take the time to cut them down, you can naturally create countless siege equipment.
But the question is whether I still have time He didn't capture this small city for a day, but his army was really completely exhausted of food At this moment, night fell again, Manninger stood in front of the battle and refused to leave, and a subordinate came over and offered food: "Patriarch, eat something" Manninger glanced back, his eyes on the object in his hand, it was a black meatloaf, and he shook his head: "Take it to the Guardian Warriors." ” The subordinates wanted to say something, but when they saw Manninger's determined expression, they could only shake their heads and leave.
After a while, several more clan leaders came over, and one of them immediately asked, "Chief, what should we do when we run out of food?"
Someone else said: "Anyway, we have come to Byzantium, since the defenders of this small city are defending to the death, we don't have to waste time here, right now, we just need to drive straight in, I'm afraid we won't be able to find food."
"Today, my warriors have suffered a lot of injuries, but when the warriors come back, they can't even eat a mouthful of food."
Listening to the complaints of these subordinates, Manninger raised his eyebrows, and was about to scold, but suddenly his heart moved, looking at the eyes of his subordinates, his face suddenly smiled, he smiled very easily, deliberately pointed to the city wall in the distance, and shouted proudly: "These Byzantines are stubborn, can they stop my army, as for the food, we Bashak warriors, can't even endure such a little hardship, don't you have the will to take away the land of the Byzantines?"
When he said these words, his subordinates were silent for a moment.
Manninger was not blindly suppressed, and then smiled faintly, pretending to be relaxed, and said loudly: "Didn't I leave five thousand people and let Morka raise food in Wildfire Town, Morka is loyal and brave, my order will definitely be completed with all his might, and he will do his best to prepare food in Wildfire Town, and at most when it is dawn, he will come with food, and when the time comes, are you still afraid that you will not eat?"
After all, when staying in Wildfire Town, Manninger left his eldest son Morka and brought five thousand people to prepare food on the spot, everyone saw it, and thought that they had been fighting here for a day and a night, and the five thousand people of Morka should have come with food soon.
"Although the matter of the patriarch's food has been solved by Morka, there is no drinking water."
One of the leaders was full of sorrow: "These Byzantines are cunning, and all the way they go, the water sources have been blocked or polluted by themselves, and now their warriors have parched mouths and have begun to drink deer urine" Manninger listened, his face calm, and he just looked at the leader who spoke.
When the guards next to him heard this, they couldn't help but shout angrily: "Shut up, do you know what the patriarch didn't drink today, do you know what the patriarch drank today?"

Speaking of this, the guard warrior had tears on his face, gritted his teeth, and said, "The patriarch drank his own urine today."
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence, and the tribal leader who opened his mouth to ask for water knelt on the ground with a thud and shouted: "The patriarch is the respect of my damned patriarch, who can endure the humiliation and drink urine of our subordinate warriors, even if he drinks his own blood to quench his thirst, he will not retreat."
With that, he stood up, turned around and left.
The leaders of the other tribes were also generous and excited, and went down to reorganize the army.
Seeing that everyone had retreated, Manninger sighed, patted the guard warrior beside him who had just spoken, and said in a low voice: "Well done, you are very smart." ” With tears on his face, the warrior whispered, "Patriarch" Manninger smiled proudly: "We are pouring out of the nest just to take away the land of the Byzantines, how can this little frustration shake my heart Hum Drink urine today, so that tomorrow we can drink wine in the royal palace of Osgilia" After a pause, he turned around, looked at the north, his eyes were deep, and said slowly: "That guy Morka, it's time to come, send someone to hurry up and go to the direction of Wildfire Town again."
Manninger was full of anticipation, and in the middle of the night, he finally waited for the news of his son As he waited, his Guardian Warrior ran over with two dusty, embarrassed-looking Odin warriors.
The two Odin warriors pounced in front of Manninger, and Manninger's heart sank when he saw the faces of the two men really The two men looked depressed, and one of them whispered, "The patriarch Lord Morka sent us to report that we, we were in Wildfire Town, and we were attacked."
