Chapter 180 The Fishman Army (1 update)

The thick city wall is 4 meters wide, enough for two rows of fully armed soldiers to fight in formation.

The top of the city wall is covered with eaves supported by shelves.

This is to block the moonlight at night.

Matthew never places his hope on default rules.

On the circular city wall.

There are 8 bastions protruding outwards, with staggered teeth.

There are three-story buildings built on the bastion, with shooting ports all over it, and heavy bows and crossbows are placed here.

It can not only isolate the enemy from long-range and crossbow attacks, but also suppress the shooting without restraint.

At the top of the bastion, there is also a towering observation tower.

There is a wall outside for cover, which can block the enemy's sight.

Behind the wall, there is a second row of walls and a circular urn city, blocking behind the three city gates.

The 1st row of walls is lost, and there is a stronger 2nd row!

Even underground, we have made full preparations.

Thanks to the excellent digging ability of the kobolds, the newly built wall actually has a foundation nearly ten meters deep.

Only then did Matthew understand why Pfizer built the castle here.

Looking at the entire area within 10 kilometers nearby, only the narrow roads and the hills here have solid ground.

The rest is all soft mud.

If you want to build a camp or building in a pile of mud, you can understand it just by looking at how unlucky the Carlisle family team is.

Although there are still many areas that need to be improved, and the detailed work will take at least two months, it can already play a defensive role.

Take the 500 soldiers stationed in the fishman camp as an example.

Matthew believed that they could withstand the attack of more than 3,000 elite troops and persist for several months without falling.

With heavy crossbows and teleportation array supplies, you can even severely damage attacking enemies!

As long as the enemy cannot remove the murloc castle, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream to cross the vast misty swamp and attack the Gulf Territory.

It is precisely because of this that Matthew is ready to fight with the Carlisle family.

The Gulf Territory appeared too suddenly. Even though it had the reputation of "solving" the Mahogany Chamber of Commerce before, it was all based on rumors after all.

For other lords and nobles, it does not have much deterrent effect.

For example, the Carlisle family in front of you!

If the Gulf Territory wants to gain a foothold here and spread a greater reputation, and prepare for Wei Matthew's follow-up plan, it must deal with these provocative guys one by one.

Let’s start with the Carlisle family!

This night.

In the Carlisle family camp.

Some soldiers plugged their ears and slept soundly. This was to prevent the Gulf Territory from harassing them at night.

There are also some soldiers who have been gathered together and hidden at the entrance of the camp.

However, just like a few days ago, your soldiers came over and harassed them, but in the end they still did not launch an attack.

These soldiers were quite helpless and felt a little headache at the Gulf Territory's dirty tactics.

Many people were downcast and felt unspeakably aggrieved.

However, no one dares to go out and launch an attack!

Brown rubbed his eyebrows, hesitated for a while and then continued:

"Inform all soldiers that we will be able to dig out the entrance to the ruins in 10 days at most."

"Everyone, please hold on a little longer. As long as the ruins are taken care of, I will definitely lead everyone to avenge and retaliate!"

The officers naturally heard what Brown meant, their eyes lit up, and they quickly explained to their soldiers.

The soldiers, who were already holding their breath, had ferocious expressions on their faces, obviously very interested in Brown's "proposal".

Most of the time, they are soldiers of the nobles.

But these days, who hasn’t started a side job yet?

The soldiers of the Carlisle family spent another difficult night.

Early in the morning on the second day.

Brown rubbed his red eyes and waved to the impatient soldiers to rest.

He can't sleep yet, and must arrange for a group of soldiers who had rested last night to come to guard him.

The Gulf Territory may not dare to launch a frontal attack, but maybe what tricks will it use?

When it comes to judging others by oneself, Brown feels that it is better for him to be more vigilant.

After a while, a shrill sound broke through the air above the camp.

The harassment from the Gulf Territory soldiers has apparently started again!

What Brown doesn't know is that Matthew has never been interested in them!

About 50 kilometers away from the Fisherman's Castle, a convoy of about 2,000 people is preparing to set off.

The person leading the team is the Hawk Knight of the Carlisle family.

As a high-ranking knight loyal to the Carlisle family, Hawke has nearly 20 years of experience in delivering supplies and manpower.

Whether in the dangerous northern wilderness, the mountains of Falsico in the south, or even the flat grasslands of Locke, he has left his traces.

He is also deeply trusted by the Carlisle family because of his steady behavior.

Not only did they invest a lot of resources to cultivate his strength, they also gave him the title of knight and his own manor.

Hawke is no stranger to the Misty Swamp.

The Carlisle family also had several small ruins in the past, which were excavated in the misty swamp.

In his opinion, there is not much danger in the Misty Swamp. Apart from the smell, it is basically a relatively easy journey.

As long as you are careful about the giant crocodiles in the misty swamp, there will be no casualties.

The only thing that caused Hawke some criticism was that there were no resting spots on the entire Misty Swamp road.

Especially last night, Hawke had to lead people to spend the night in the temporary camp built in the previous trips.

Fortunately, there were no attacks at night, except for those annoying fishmen.

Putting on the polished chainmail that had been maintained, he put on another layer of armor with the help of his attendants. After checking it, he walked out of the tent.

The smell of cooking food came, inevitably mixed with the stench of the swamp.

Hawke just frowned. He could still tolerate this level. Looking at the somewhat lazy guards and cart drivers, he shouted without hesitation:

"Hurry up, we have a heavy task today."

"After delivering the supplies to the camp, I have to rush back here to rest!"

"There are no goods to bring back on this trip, so everyone will feel much more relaxed..."

The familiar guard soldiers spread his words while using their feet and whips to remind those who were still lazy.

About half an hour later, the transport team had breakfast and set off again.

They slowly left the temporary camp and entered the surging fog little by little.

Hawke and others had no idea. Many pairs of eyes had already spotted their movements.

Seeing them getting into the fog, they rushed into the empty temporary camp screaming "Wow!"

Soon, a "cracking" fire appeared.

The blazing flames spread out in all directions.

The billowing smoke rose up, but was shrouded in the rolling fog, unknown to anyone, and disappeared.

About half an hour into the march, Hawke, who was leading the team at the front, suddenly pulled his horse and stared in disbelief at the figure rushing out of the fog in front of him.

Countless fishmen!

As you look around, there are countless!

This was extremely absurd when Hawke came over. The moment he pulled out his sword, only one thought flashed through his mind:

"Where are the scouts who went to explore the road?"
