Chapter 1,276 It’s the turn of the Storm Legion(2/2)
Tens of thousands of prisoners were hunted down and died outside the walls of Beitie City one by one.
Naturally, the people in the city were so stunned.
Many people would even object to Commander Bei Tie's cold-bloodedness.
Of course, so far, even if it will affect the reputation of the leader of Beitecheng under certain circumstances.
But it will not lead to the attack on Beitie City.
As for the key to defeating Beitie City, it is the arrival of a team from the Holy City.
I heard that the people who fled went to the Holy City of Fire, and then informed the high priest of the situation here.
After hearing this, the high priest sent hundreds of their envoys to see the commander of Beitie City and asked him why he didn't open the city gate and let the prisoners into the city.
And there is no need to think too much about this group of people, they are just what the Storm Legion is pretending to be.
The people in Beitie City were wary of the prisoners who had escaped, fearing that they had surrendered to the enemy, or that there were enemies among them.
But for the Holy City coming from behind, representing the Fire High Priest's menacing team that came to call for punishment, they were definitely not prepared.
And once they let this group of people enter the city, there is a high possibility that the city gate will be taken down.
At that time, the soldiers of the Storm Legion who happened to be fighting outside the city would take advantage of the situation and attack the city at lightning speed.
At that time, Beitie City will naturally fall into the hands of the Storm Legion.
So what if Bei Tiecheng had let the prisoners enter the city from the beginning?
It was no coincidence that there were indeed thousands of elite members of the Storm Legion among the prisoners.
After all, these prisoners came from different cities to work as coolies, so it was normal for some of them not to know each other.
"High! Really high!"
Narant couldn't help but admire the strategies of the dog-headed military advisors in this medieval setting.
This plan was simply out of control by them.
Of course, if you meet Nalant in Beautiful Flowers, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
"Shirley, when will the Storm Legion take action?"
"Sir, it's also tonight."
"Very good, we can watch a good show again tonight!"
Narante smiled and nodded.
…
That night.
There is a separate camp outside the Storm Legion camp.
The camp is surrounded by wooden fences. Although it is not as strong as the real military camp next to it, there are only two to three thousand soldiers on duty.
Because the prisoners here are all Flame Continent prisoners who are used as coolies and shields.
And because the prisoners performed well during the day yesterday, with more than 10,000 casualties, the trenches outside Beitie City were finally filled in, which allowed the Storm Legion to show mercy and give everyone enough black bread.
This resulted in a full meal for the prisoners who had been hungry for months.
Now that you have eaten enough, you will naturally have more thoughts.
A few of them were unwilling to become cannon fodder for the Storm Legion, and they were also accomplices against their own great holy city.
So, they have been looking for loopholes in this camp.
Just tonight, they discovered a loophole.
That's because the soldiers of the Storm Legion are going to launch a massacre tomorrow, so the God of the Storm has specially sent a divine favor to slaughter the cattle and sheep snatched along the way as delicacies to reward the soldiers.
Although the God of Storms issued a strict order not to allow anyone to drink alcohol, it was rare for the soldiers to eat such rich delicacies, so the soldiers still hesitated.
The prisoners could hear the sound of laughter and feasting from time to time around the camp.
There were only a few soldiers on duty at the surrounding watchtowers.
"Let's do it, today is the best opportunity!"
"Yes, when these Storm Legions attack the city, they like to use our people from the Flame Continent as shields and send them under the city wall."
"Instead of letting them use the shield to deal with our own people, we should try our best now to see if we can throw it out and maybe still survive."
"Even if I can't survive by then, I can still fight with them again."
"Okay, let's do it!"
The higher-ranking Flame General among the several prisoners made up his mind.
Immediately, they conveyed the order to everyone, and then took the lead in starting the activity.
They were shackled, but when filling the river during the day, they also hid some tools.
For example, there are broken arrows, and there are quite a few of them.
After all, when they filled the river, at least tens of thousands of them were shot from the city wall.
Following the shouts in the distance, everyone began to use iron arrows to tighten the screws on the shackles.
After a while, the first set of shackles was lifted.
Then came the second, third, fourth...
As more and more shackles were lifted, the prisoners began to move towards the few sentries at the edge of the camp.
Puff puff!
Following several sounds of flesh penetration, before the soldier on duty could scream in agony, his neck was pierced by a broken arrow.
After taking the equipment of several soldiers, the leading prisoner immediately shouted: "Come on, rush out of the camp!"
The reason why we no longer carry out sneak attacks secretly is because it is impossible to hide anymore.
There are fires everywhere around the front camp gate, and even if a mouse walks by, it will be spotted by people on the surrounding towers.
So, instead of shrinking back, it’s better to work hard.
"Kill!"
As the leading prisoners took the lead, other prisoners who had taken off their shackles also responded and rushed towards the door desperately.
Dang Dang Dang!
The soldiers on duty on the arrow tower immediately noticed the situation, sounded the alarm, and began to launch arrows to attack.
The dozen soldiers on duty at the door immediately drew their swords to defend themselves.
But the prisoners had long been prepared to die. They didn't care about the sparse arrows above their heads. Instead, they attacked the dozens of fully armed soldiers.
Within a moment, a dozen heavily armed soldiers were drowned in the crowd of hundreds of meters of captives.
After these people dealt with the soldiers on the ground, one group went to open the gate of the camp, while the other group held torches and started to prevent fire everywhere.
Suddenly, the whole camp was in chaos.
"The door is open, everyone run!"
At this time, the camp gate was finally opened, and both those who had their chains unlocked and those who had not were all running towards the outside of the city.
The direction in which everyone was running was towards Beitecheng.
After all, there are people of their own in Beitie City, so they instinctively feel safe.
…
The people in Beitie City didn't know what was going on at this time. When they saw a camp outside the city blazing with flames, the leader of Beitie City couldn't help but come to the wall.
"what happened?"
"Lord Commander, that should be the camp where the Storm Legion held prisoners. Not long ago, shouts of killing and fire began to come from the camp."
"In the camp where the prisoners are held, could it be that our captives escaped from prison?"
Commander Bei Tiecheng murmured after hearing this.
And the facts quickly confirmed his speculation.
Chapter completed!
