Chapter 517. Skilled special operations infiltrate
The soldier rubbed his eyes and tried to cheer up, but the tiredness from the bottom of his heart made him lean against the wall, and he couldn't help but want to sleep, and his spirit was very poor.
Anyway, he is not alone, everyone is like this.
Some soldiers even have the magical ability to fall asleep standing up.
This skill was the envy of the soldier, and he hoped to learn it.
On top of this city tower, although everyone stood guard and put up a sentry, few people really stared at the outside of the southern city wall.
Below is the dock area, where more than 2,000 sailors are stationed.
They didn't believe anyone would have the courage to attack the South Gate of Lionheart at night.
There weren't a few people staring inside the southern walls.
The closest to the south gate was the slum, and they didn't believe that if a poor person dared to come to the city in the middle of the night, they would shoot the poor people who came directly on the grounds that they were trying to open the gate privately.
Nothing like this has happened in more than a decade.
Everyone is just passing the time here at night, and by the way, they get a meager salary.
There will be no essential difference between serious sentry and grinding foreign workers.
"Cheer up, soldiers?"
The commander of the sentry soldiers, a squad leader, said weakly.
It's just routine.
lest someone inform, as a chief, inaction, and replace him by the way.
Although being the squad leader of this sentry team is not a good job, he is still a squad leader, and he can get 30 more small silver coins per week than ordinary soldiers.
After the squad leader spoke, none of the soldiers standing guard paid any attention to him, and he was still the same.
The team leader stopped talking, and even closed his eyes when he stood.
He was going to get two hours of sleep first.
When the time comes, shout again.
You can sleep until dawn.
Fifty Lion Knights of Saarion, in the obscure moonlight, turned into a dark shadow and quietly came to the south gate tower.
The soldiers who stood guard on the castle tower, no one noticed their arrival.
The south city wall is ten meters high, and the thickness of the city wall within the distance of fifty meters from the south gate and the south city gate to the east and west is also ten meters, so that there will be a very wide position on the city wall near the city gate, and when the enemy attacks the south city gate, some more soldiers can be placed on the south city wall for defense.
Below the castle tower, there are three vaulted holes side by side.
In each vaulted hole, there is a gate six meters wide.
In addition to the city gates, two soldiers were stationed under each of the three arched holes.
They were the soldiers who were in charge of opening and closing the city gates, but at this time, they were lying directly on the ground, sleeping soundly.
In this arched cave, it is much more comfortable than the top of the castle tower.
Six Sarion lion knights slowly approached the guards at the gates of the city, who were sleeping on the ground in the three vaulted holes.
At about the same moment, the nameless Lion Knight of Saarion all touched the vicinity of a soldier.
They didn't use the knight's sword, but just held the head of the soldier in their hands and twisted it fiercely.
Boom.. Boom..
The sound of the neck breaking was harsh in the three arched holes, but in reality, it wasn't loud, it was just that the environment was too quiet.
The six soldiers guarding the city gates died silently in their sweet sleep.
Due to the structure of the vaulted hole, the sound of this broken neck could not be transmitted above the castle tower.
In each vaulted hole, the gates are two extremely heavy wooden doors.
At this time, the two wooden doors are closed, and between the two wooden doors, there are three gate valves.
They are made of extremely heavy and extremely tough wood.
Six Lion Knights of Saarion silently opened the gate of the city gate.
With a single pull, they were able to open three gates at the same time.
They didn't, though.
The crunch of the heavy gates, when opened, was absolutely tremendous in the silence of the night.
It will definitely make the soldiers standing guard upstairs hear the movement at the gate.
Moreover, when the heavy city gate is opened, it will drive the entire city tower, and the soldiers who often feel this slight shock will immediately know that the city gate has been opened.
These sentry soldiers were not fearful, but they were able to shout loudly to inform the nearby barracks.
Things will be a little troublesome then.
Six Saarion knights, who had opened the gates of the gates, stood under the gates.
Wait quietly, but also in case a soldier suddenly rushes into the arched hole and reinserts the gate valve of the city gate.
The other forty-four Lion Knights of Saarion quietly followed the solid steps built next to the city wall, step by step, slowly approaching the tower.
At the same time, they silently and slowly drew the knight's sword from their waists, without making too much noise.
In this way, they stood quietly on the steps next to the inner wall of the southern wall of Lionheart, and they only needed to take two steps to go up to the castle tower and kill.
They were waiting, waiting for the agreed signal to sound.
If you just rush to the castle tower and kill it.
There were more than 200 soldiers stationed on the castle tower, and even if they killed them quickly, there would definitely be soldiers who would notify the people in the nearby barracks by shouting loudly.
By that time, General Bestiel outside had not yet arrived and could not enter the city.
And inside Simon. The private army of the Earl of Puran's family will pour out of the barracks and directly surround them, the 50 Lion Knights of Saarion.
Even if they could escape with the gates open, even if they could escape with their lives, Bestul's plan to take the gates through a sneak attack would have completely failed.
Therefore, they need to wait.
Wait for Bestur's signal, or wait for the guards on the tower to spot Bestur and sound an early warning.
At that time, it was the time for them to rush to the castle tower and kill on a large scale.
It is also the moment when the six lion knights of Saarion open the gates of the vaulted cave.
Above the Resneston River.
30 triremes and 120 oars, like shadows, quietly lurked near the Lionheart City Naval Barracks.
In the naval barracks, there is a 30-meter-wide and 200-meter-long inlet dug out of the water.
The warships of the sailors docked in this inlet.
On the shore on both sides of the inlet, there are some guard towers, and behind the guard towers are the well-organized sailor barracks.
At the same time, on both sides of the inlet, there was also a small dock on one side, apparently used for the repair of warships.
At this time, there was silence in the naval barracks.
The soldiers on the watchtower are obviously about the same virtue as the guys on the south gate of Lionheart.
Even, because of the scarcity of soldiers on guard, it is even more unscrupulous.
They were also dozing off.
Kant led the bandits, as well as his mages, mage apprentices, Swadia knights, and Saarion lion knights, who also waited quietly.
What he was waiting for was the earth-shattering shouting of killing at the south gate of Lionheart City.
At that point, he will be able to get his hands dirty.
If he made a move in advance, then the sound of his battle here would inevitably alarm the garrison of the south gate of Lionheart City three miles away.
Affects Bestur's plan to attack and capture the south gates of Lionheart.
Bestur's plan was orderly and interlocking, and Kant didn't want to make Bestur's plan fail because of his own reasons.
He also hopes that Bestul's battle for the Lionheart City Raid will get an "epic battle" or a "legendary battle" to get system honor points.
