The Young King's Great Ambition
Chapter 48: The Difficult Conquest

After enduring a long time the Svardian royal army began to implement the strategy devised by Bruvas.

The Siege tower advanced slowly towards the enemy city walls, while the catapult rained down the archers on the enemy wall with a huge flaming stone.

"Well!, stay afloat!" Shouted the Garrison leader

The garrison leader left the city wall and he was under the city wall, preparing the troops to advance against the encampment of Svardian soldiers.

After the enemy archer troops were stopped due to being pounded by the flint from the catapult, the heavy infantry formed a Shield Wall formation and they advanced slowly with the Storm Archer behind them.

After walking somewhat close to the wall, the heavy infantry opened a gap from the Shield Wall formation for the Storm Archer troops aiming at them.

"The garrison leader!, they're coming, the lightning weapon is coming here!," said the scout in the tower

"What!, damn it!, get the archers to flee or take cover!"

The garrison leader ordered the archers to flee, but it was too late.

The ten Storm Archer troops shot their lightning arrows, the enemy troops were very unlucky, they had been pounded by fire stones from the catapult, and then struck again with lightning arrows.

"Damn you guys, how dare you!, the spearmen, be ready on the city wall, they will approach the city wall with the siege tower!"

The archers were unable to maintain their position, they were replaced by a spearman who would block the Svardians from heading for the wall with the siege tower.

Siege tower whose front part is already as symmetry as hedgehogs, because they are harvested continuously, Siege tower also approached the city wall.

The scout saw the tower that was a little closer from the balista, he told the garrison leader.

"Garrison leader, there's an enemy tower somewhere near our balista,"

"Haha!, good, knock that tower with a balista"

The arrows of the balista pierced them, and there was a rope tied to the arrows of the balista.

"They aim to take down the tower!" bruvas panicked

The rope tied to the ballista arrow was pulled back by a mechanism, there was only one siege tower of the balista victim, the tower was torn down, and there were some survivors while the rest were seriously injured,they are nearing death.

The survivors secured their wounded companions, and took their companions to the camp to be treated, they were able to retreat safely because the enemy had already replaced the spearmen.

The other troops in the other tower did not waste the struggle of his comrades, they approached, his journey was lowered and they were already on the wall of the enemy city.

"You all go forward!!, attack the enemy's spearmen!"

The infantrymen who climbed the walls stormed the spearmen, they held their shields tightly together and thrust their shields into the spearmen.

"Get the ballista down, don't let the enemy use it!" Said a soldier

The infantrymen who were already on the city walls immediately headed to the place where the balista was located, many soldiers fighting to give way.

"Storm Archer is back!, and heavy Infantry!, go to the city walls and help them, while also opening the gate mechanism so that the troops in the camp can enter!!" Klenberg's orders

The Storm Archer troops retreated after protecting the infantry troops above the city walls with lightning arrows.

While heavy infantrymen flocked up the siege tower to head for the city wall, they reached the city wall and headed to the gate mechanism.

They worked in unison, many heavy infantrymen fighting the enemy to protect the soldiers who tried to open the gates.

But the heavy infantry who wanted to go down and open the gate saw the garrison leader with cavsleri and infantry.

They did not dare to go down and from them returned to the camp.

The soldier went to Brusvan and said what he saw below.

Brusvan and Klenberg ordered heavy infantry and spearmen to make a march, hearing the sound of their footwork stepping on the ground near the gate.

The garrison leader prepared his troops to repel the Svardians who were about to break through their gates.

"Typhoon Javrliner!, bang the gate"

Javelin the wind was thrown into the gate, the thick wooden gate was pierced and destroyed, the wind released by the javelin made the Valmurg troops slightly shifted from their position.

"Open up!" Shouted the garrison leader

The Valmurg infantry were at the front and attacked with the garrison leader, but they looked ahead and were shocked.

The one in front of them was not the infantry warrior Svardia, but the warrior Storm Archer.

Storm Archer was at the front and attacked them with lightning arrows, the surprise attack managed to destroy the infantry troops along with the garrison leader, they had all been scorched.

"We're yanking!"

The Svardians cheered with joy, and gathering together the surrender of the enemy at one place, they replaced the flag of Valmurg at the gate and tower with the Flag of Valmurg.

The city lord came and surrendered.

"I, Trivnel, lord of the city of Dorvin, hereby we surrender to the kingdom of Svardia, let us take care of all the bodies of our dead soldiers"

Bruvas approached the ruler of the city and said, "we will do the same, and also for the family of your dead soldier, they will be financed by the funds of the royal consignment of Svardia"

The war was over, and even though the city had been conquered, they felt empty because it had taken the lives of many people.

As usual Bruvas sent a letter to his king in the capital, he also informed the city lord about making one condition or request to the king, in exchange for the surrender of the city territory and the loyalty of the city lord.

"I just want something to make this city more advanced, grant my request if your king can" Trivnel said

"All right, I'll tell you that" said Bruvas.

The army sent food to the city lord for the inhabitants of the city, and all the Svardians returned to the camp and held funerals, the dead Prajuriy was buried near the shady leprosy and the cemetery was fenced off.

Turning to the second battalion of new troops tasked with conquering the city in the west, they were building defenses in their camp, and installing thin wooden walls in several places near the walls for Storm Archer

"We've put Storm Archer on the wooden wall that we've made, it's very difficult to put that wall in the shooting range of the arrow." Said the chief battalion leader

"They're still on guard and haven't acted yet, do they want us to attack first?" Deputies

The enemy forces were still monitoring the movement of the Svardians, as if they were going to attack after the Svardians had attacked first.
