In the forest several miles away from Kingsley Manor, the whole night was illuminated by the blazing bonfire.
The soldiers responsible for felling trees kept swinging their axes, making crisp and powerful banging sounds, accompanied by the officers' rude scolding, which spread far into the manor.
In the manor, except for the robbers and bandits visualized by the system, the other captured criminals were holding weapons one by one and sitting close to the corner of the outer wall.
They listened to the sound coming from their ears, their faces were a little nervous, and their eyes looked outside the wall from time to time, with a little worry in their eyes.
But when these criminals inadvertently raised their heads and glanced at Hood and others standing on the wall, the worry in their eyes suddenly subsided a lot.
"Boss, why don't we just go out of the city to sneak attack them!" Monklon suggested to Hood, listening to the noisy sound coming from afar.
Hod stared at the several places in the forest where the lights were flashing, shook his head slowly and said, "I'm afraid this is useless. Since the other party dared to set up camp here blatantly, it is naturally impossible for them to be stupid enough not to guard against our attack at night."
"What should we do? Are we just going to watch them build the camp and then use those siege weapons to attack us?" Monkron asked anxiously.
Faced with this tricky situation, Hod couldn't help but sigh deeply.
At this point, it seems that there is really no better way. All we can do now is to wait and see whether the subsequent situation will change in our favor.
The next day, at noon.
A large camp appeared in the sight of Hod and his men.
The camp is surrounded by a circle of simple wooden fences. Although it looks simple, it gives people a sense of reliability.
There are also sentry towers built beside the wall, and on each sentry tower stand several soldiers with solemn expressions and ready to fight.
With weapons tightly in their hands, they scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, as if ready to deal with any possible crisis.
Looking from afar, you can see a very conspicuous white curtain tent standing between the layers of tents.
The tent looked particularly large, and it stood out among the low tents like a crane standing out among chickens.
Outside the tent, there were several soldiers guarding, each of them holding a short spear and a zither-shaped shield, with a serious expression.
In front of the tent, there was also a long square flag, and the bright flag fluttered in the wind.
There was no doubt that this was the core of the entire military camp - the central army tent.
At this time, Conrad was standing upright in front of a long table, his eyes looking straight at the distant Kingsley Manor, overcoming many obstacles.
His eyes were deep, revealing the elusive thoughts contained in them. Beside him, Knight Hagen stood quietly with his long sword in his hand, also staring into the distance.
In the big tent, besides Hagen, there were three other knights in heavy armor.
However, unlike Hagen, these three knights all stood silently by the side, motionless like sculptures, only occasionally glancing at Conrad with the corner of their eyes, quietly waiting for his order.
Finally, Conrad raised his foot and slowly stepped forward.
As he moved, the eyes of the four knights instantly focused on him.
Conrad took a deep breath, reached out and grasped the hilt of the armed sword hanging at his waist, and then slowly pulled it out of the scabbard.
The sword flashed with cold light, reflecting Conrad's somewhat vicissitudes of life. He said in a deep voice: "In front, there is a group of criminals trying to seize Rhine Town, and their behavior seriously violates the honor of the Damon family!
"In order to maintain the dignity of the Damon family, these daring criminals must be brought to justice, their heads must be cut off, and prove to others that the honor of the Damon family cannot be offended."
After speaking, he swung the armed sword in his hand and shouted: "For the honor of the Damon family!"
"For the honor of the Damon family! "
Inside the military tent, the four knights responded in unison after hearing the order.
Then they turned around and hurriedly left the tent.
A moment later, the entire camp seemed to be on fire, with voices of people bustling, accompanied by rapid and heavy footsteps, and fully armed soldiers rushed out of the camp like a tide.
These soldiers moved quickly and soon stopped about 500 meters away from Kingsley Manor.
As the officers gave the order, they quicklyAdjusting their positions, they formed a fairly neat and tight formation.
Then, the officers shouted like thunder: "Forward!" "Speed up!" "Keep the formation!"
Amid the deafening shouts, two hundred town conscripts wearing longbows and armed clothes trotted out in a chaotic pace.
Each of them ran slowly towards the manor with a nervous but determined look. These soldiers rushed all the way, raising clouds of dust under their feet.
When they finally came to a place about a hundred steps away from the manor, they stopped in unison at the officer's command again.
At this time, they could clearly see the scene outside the manor. The four-meter-wide trench was full of spikes, and robbers holding weapons and shields stood on the wall.
Then, under the stern commands of the officers, these longbow conscripts quickly took action.
They pulled the bowstrings, put the flat arrows on the strings, and adjusted the angles so that the arrows pointed obliquely in the direction of the manor.
In an instant, two hundred bowstrings were tightened, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
At this time, Hood and his robbers on the outer wall also discovered this situation.
Their faces changed drastically, and they raised their shields without hesitation, tightly together, forming a solid defense.
Almost at the same time, the officers gave a final roar: "Shoot!"
Along with this order, a loud "buzz..." sound suddenly sounded, as if countless bees were flapping their wings at the same time.
One by one, sharp arrows passed through the air like a gust of wind and rain, gathering into an overwhelming rain of arrows, pouring down towards the manor at an astonishing speed.
"Defense!!!"
Hood on the wall saw this scene with his eyes wide open and shouted hoarsely.
The other robbers and criminals under the wall heard his shouts and woke up from their dreams. They hurriedly raised their shields and tried to resist the airtight attack.
Some people who reacted slowly did not even have time to pick up their shields, and were shot by the whistling arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
However, some criminals who did not have shields to protect themselves were even more miserable. They could only flee in fear and desperately look for corners to avoid the rain of arrows.
Some people panicked and hit their heads against the wall, while others hid in the corners, holding their heads and ignoring the arrows attacking them.
For a time, the whole manor was in chaos and panic.
