Chapter 192 Alvin's Little Thoughts

Kaho City.

After receiving Luce's order, Kerby immediately took action.

The 5,000-man army launched a charge towards Kaho City. There was no fancy tricks, just a death charge.

Under the cover of the shield soldiers, the siege ladders and battering rams began to work.

Saigon calmly commanded the soldiers defending the city to throw down the boulders.

The boulders were wrapped with vines soaked in kerosene, and there were a lot of barbs on the thorns.

After clearing a wave of siege soldiers with boulders, Saigon immediately asked people to ignite the vines on the boulders with burning arrows.

Life on the battlefield is the least valuable, especially in sieges, which are the most tragic.

There were wailing soldiers everywhere, and broken limbs and arms flying around were impacting the soldiers' brains and wills all the time.

Especially Kerby, as the siege party, his losses were very large, but Luce's orders could not be disobeyed, so he could only fill them with human lives.

"Go, assemble the catapults and cover the battering rams." Kerby ordered.

Kerby didn't want to use catapults, as catapults were too big a target. If the city wall was blown down, it would be difficult to defend after the occupation.

However, the resistance of Kaho City was too stubborn. After receiving Luce's letter, he sent people to persuade Saigon to surrender, promising that as long as he opened the gate and surrendered, he could keep his position as the Earl of Kaho City.

As a result, the messenger was brutally skinned and torn out by Saigon, and thrown under the city wall.

For Saigon, Kerby's envoys who persuaded him to surrender were simply insulting him, not to mention that he would never surrender after seeing Clark.

If he didn't surrender, he could still defend the city. If he surrendered, he would be eaten alive by the dragon in a short time.

Saigon was still very clear about which was more important, and he didn't hesitate at all.

So even if skinning and tormenting the messenger might boost the morale of the opponent, he still brutally killed the messenger to show his position.

This approach did boost the morale of Kerby's men, and they became united against the enemy, but the morale of the tribesmen of the Seen tribe was also boosted.

For the Seen people, they had never fought such a rich war. Compared with the previous battles with others without city walls, defending the city was much easier.

According to Kerby's requirements, fifteen catapults were quickly assembled. Kerosene was not a secret weapon, and Kerby naturally had it in his hands.

With an order, fifteen huge stones burning with flames flew towards the city of Kaho.

The huge stones fell on the city walls and the buildings behind the city walls with a force of ten thousand pounds.

Seeing this, Segon immediately ordered people to rewind the catapults on the city wall, "Aim at those catapults and destroy them all."

"Chief, I'm afraid it's not easy to hit them. Those catapults are at the edge of the effective range, and it's not so easy to hit them."

Hearing his men say this, Segon roared: "Just say who can knock down a catapult, and I will reward him with a bottle of fine red wine!"

"Yes!"

A bottle of red wine can get dozens of silver coins, which is a very generous reward.

The two sides were deadlocked, and Kerby launched a fierce attack every once in a while, preparing to force open the city of Kaho with the advantage of numbers.

Segon temporarily returned to the hall of Kaho Castle.

After returning to the hall of the castle, Segon immediately asked his bachelors and advisors to write a letter to the Last Hearth City.

Nothing else, asking for help!

The troops attacking Kaho City were the elite under Luce, and Kerby, who led the troops, was also a talented commander.

Although there are no treacherous military tactics in the Game of Thrones world, even if Kerby attacked the city step by step, Kaho City could not withstand it.

The current Kaho City is no longer the Kaho City of the past. Not only did it experience the War of the Five Kings, but it was also taken away by Arwen and looted for supplies.

After that, the entire Kaho City relied on the supplies of the Last Hearth City to maintain.

Although Segon was determined to defend the city, many things cannot be done with determination.

According to Daenerys, Kaho City must not be lost.

If you really can't hold on, write a letter and use ravens to ask for help.

Never be stubborn and show off for the sake of face.

On the other hand, the situation in Deepwood Moor is different from that in Kaho City.

The situation in Deepwood Moor is much better than that in Kaho City.

Kasa is like an accurate radar, and he is familiar with the terrain of Wolf Forest.

The army under Roose has been led by Kasa since entering Wolf Forest.

The Wolf Forest has a complex terrain. The leader is Alwen Karstark, the uncle of Aly Karstark.

He also took away the manpower and supplies of the city of Carhor, and then surrendered to Roose Bolton.

Originally, Roose was going to let Alwen follow him, but Alwen took the initiative to take people to Deepwood Moor.

For this reason, Roose did not persuade him too much, but only asked him to just entangle Deepwood Moor and attack Deepwood Moor after the Greyjoy family arrived.

However, Alwen did not take Roose's words to heart. Deepwood Moor was not strong, and suffered heavy losses when it went south in the War of the Five Kings.

Alwen was ready to take the initiative and directly take Deepwood Moor to prove himself.

Because when he surrendered to the Bolton family, he only brought people and supplies. In the eyes of other vassals who supported the Bolton family, this was abandoning the city and running away.

Otherwise, the city of Carhor would definitely be in their hands now, and there would be no need to make an effort to attack.

This made Alwen very frustrated. This group of people could only bark like dogs, and they were talking without any pain in their waists.

At that time, Ali Karstark gained the support of Jack, and rushed to Kaho City with thousands of people, but he was careless.

If he did not retreat, the best outcome would be to be under house arrest for life.

He did not want that kind of life, so it was the best choice to take people and supplies to retreat to the Dreadfort.

However, they encountered an ambush as soon as they entered the Wolf Forest, and dozens of bows and arrows took away more than 20 of them.

The most disgusting thing was that the opponent ran away without a trace after shooting a wave, and none of the scouts sent out came back.

Faced with this practice of firing a shot and running away, Alvin's face turned red with anger.

Because the terrain in the forest is not suitable for large-scale troops to march, and there are guerrilla harassment.

This has led to the outbreak of battles in Kaho City and Last Hearth City, and they are still half a day away from Deepwood Fort.

Thinking of the confident guarantee when he left, Alvin Karstark was very irritated.

Alvin ordered the troops not to chase those who ran away after shooting arrows, and to go to Deepwood Fort at full speed.

At this time, the deputy commander following Alvin was very dissatisfied. He was also an earl and looked down on Alvin, so he spoke very rudely.

"Sir Alvin, although Duke Bolton asked you to be the commander, it does not mean that you can act recklessly and do something ridiculous."

Alvin's face turned red and he said angrily: "Mattke, what do you mean? I am the commander, are you questioning me?"
