Lord of Riders

Chapter 70



Declaring war is a necessary link for a war between countries. Shao Yu has no country, so he doesn\'t have to send envoys to declare war on the enemy.

However, Shao Yu first sent envoys to Lana to declare war on the kujit Khanate. As an ally of the kingdom of Virginia, he used the mutual assistance agreement between the allies as the reason for the war.

It took many days for the messenger to arrive in Rana, but the war had begun.

When Shao Yu arrived at the scheduled meeting place, the reinforcements from Kudan had also arrived here. According to Shao Yu\'s request, all the archers came to reinforce this time.

Count Mamun himself led 500 Virginian guerrilla shooters.

"Lord Shaoyu, long time no see." Shaoyu greeted Mamun as soon as he led the army

"The count personally led the army to support me," Shaoyu said with a smile

"Since you are an ally, you can\'t help it. Besides, his majesty ordered us to fully support you," Mamun replied

"Well, let\'s get down to business, count," Shao Yu paused and went on

"I explored sajichebao. There are only four or five hundred weak soldiers and horses. Now is a good time to attack them," Shaoyu said

"So what\'s your plan? A strong attack?" Mamun asked

"My men will sneak into the city at night, clear the city wall guards and open the city gate. Then you should quickly occupy the city wall, so that the enemy will lose all advantages," Shaoyu said

"Ha ha, Lord Shaoyu really has a way. Well, let\'s listen to you," Ma Munn said with a happy smile. Since Shaoyu had planned for a long time, he didn\'t have to worry about it.

Sajitchewburg is still a calm scene. Now the focus of the war is gathered on the battlefield of ichemore. The soldiers don\'t find anything unusual. They just gather together and talk about the war of ichemore.

Castles in kaladia are purely military fortresses, and villages are distributed around the castles. It is not common for villages like shures to be transformed into castles.

There are only barracks, prisons and other buildings inside the castle, and a post station to rest passers-by such as messengers, caravans, mercenaries and bounty hunters. Some merchants near the post station sell weapons and equipment, horses, groceries and so on. There are few residents, except the servants of the Lord.

Shao Yu and more than a thousand people of count Mamun hid in the woods during the day to avoid being found by the defenders of sajitcheburg.

It was not until it was completely dark that Shao Yu came out of the woods with his army. More than a thousand people walked carefully. If they alerted the soldiers guarding the city, it would be a lot of trouble.

The army stopped three miles away from sajitcheburg to make final preparations for the war. However, Shao Yu is not busy attacking. Now most soldiers have not rested. This is not a good time for sneak attacks.

Shao Yu led the army to wait here for another four or five hours. It was late at night. The soldiers at the head of the city were already a little tired. The soldiers who changed posts had just slept and didn\'t fully wake up. They were also confused when standing at their posts, and soon dozed off again.

Shao Yu and his army advanced two miles further and ordered them to wait here for orders

Shaoyu led the shadow guard to the bottom of the city, avoided the gate, found a place with weak defense, and threw the hook up.

"Who?" the guard heard the noise of the hook and ran over

The guard just found out that a cold arrow directly pierced the guard\'s neck. The guard snorted and fell on the wall.

"What\'s the sound?" the soldiers nearby heard something and looked around and found nothing unusual

A shadow guard quickly climbed up the wall and replaced the soldier standing guard just now. In order to prevent the enemy from finding out, the shadow guard specially changed kujit clothes this time. After the shadow guards entered the city, they all wore kujit nomadic armor, and the guards found nothing unusual. Therefore, more than a dozen people in the west wall were killed by the shadow guards one by one in a very short time.

After Shao Yu\'s long-term training, the shadow guards under Shaoyu now exist like killers. Most shadow guards use a light crossbow to shoot the specified target accurately from 100 meters away. Some can even shoot enemies 150 or 60 meters away. This is due to the limited range of the light crossbow, which has an effective range of only 200 meters.

The top snipers in rodoc Kingdom (rodoc marksman) can shoot enemies 400 meters away, but their siege crossbow can shoot at a range of 800 meters. If the shadow guards use the siege crossbow, their performance may not be worse than rodoc snipers.

The shadow Guard soldiers quietly boarded the city and killed all the guards of the East and west walls in a short time. The guard of the north city wall didn\'t find them in time, and they were all put down by the shadow guard.

Only nearly 20 guards at the south city wall and the gate have not been solved.

Twenty seven shadow guards all boarded the city. Cage took his two shadow guards directly to the gate.

"You two, go to the stables, release their army horses and burn the stables."

After cage passed, Shaoyu whispered to the two shadow guards around him

"Yes, sir," they promised, and went straight to the stable. The guard soldiers were in vain in front of the shadow guard and were directly shot by the shadow guard from a distance.

"Several brothers, the guard has changed," cage said to the guards at the gate

"Post change? Why is it so fast? We just changed Posts soon," said a guard curiously

"Really? I don\'t think I\'m awake. I\'m early," cage said, scratching his head

"Let\'s go back and come back later," cage said, taking some shadow guards to the barracks

"Wait, wait, we remember the wrong time. It seems that it\'s really time for you to change your guard." the guard captain patted the soldier\'s head and shouted

Although it\'s not time to change posts, some people take the initiative to change posts. Naturally, the captain is eager. Who doesn\'t want to go back to bed early in the middle of the night.

"Well, then go back and leave it to us." cage pretended to shake his head reluctantly and returned with the soldiers.

Continue to stand guard instead of these guards. The guards went back to rest happily.

The guards on the wall also left. They and the gate guards were a small team of soldiers.

"Hum, a bunch of fools, I don\'t know the time." the guard captain laughed at cage and others in a low voice. Took the soldiers back to bed.

The team of guards returned to the camp. Cage immediately opened the gate. On the other side of the stables, two shadow guards had also successfully sneaked in. The gate of sajitchebao was wide open. The shadow guards quickly sent a signal. When the troops outside saw the signal, they quickly touched it.
