Chapter 98: Troops Gathered Outside the City Walls

  =======================================

  Albi Pastor nodded hastily, and the beast head arranged for his subordinates to bring 200 frost giants, tightly wrapping Albi Pastor in the middle, swaggering from the edge of the Western Castle, sweeping towards the rear of the Western Castle.

  Seeing that the Frost Giants wanted to bypass the Western Citadel, the people inside the Western Citadel also couldn't sit still and immediately reacted.

  At that time, a cavalry of about 1,000 people rushed out, seemingly wanting to intercept the 200-man Frost Giant team. The beast head immediately dispatched another 300 elite Frost Giants wearing armor, led by the leader's giant axe, easily dispersing the cavalry and almost capturing a city gate.

  However, the remaining 600 or so cavalrymen who were defeated did not return to the castle, but instead chose to break through, taking off all their heavy armor and throwing it on the ground, and then rushed towards the human territory in the north. Among them was a small team of more than a dozen people, rushing towards the Pailos Castle in the north.

  Upon witnessing this scene, Beast Head knew that Baron Sihart was on the same wavelength as him, wanting to secure victory outside of Sihart Castle.

  If the beast head can conquer the rear of Viscount Xihat, then Viscount Castle has become an isolated island. The supplies for more than 20,000 people are not enough to eat, and three months later, this castle will become a terrifying city where people eat people. At that time, Frost Giant will be able to break the city smoothly with ease, killing Viscount Xihat and Pastor Duncan in the castle, achieving the final victory.

  Later, support a puppet regime to rule the entire Northland. The Frost Giants would retreat back to their glaciers before summer every year and just come over to collect tribute once a year.

  On the contrary, if the rear continuously dispatches troops to harass the Frost Giant's camp, the Frost Giant will also be unbearable. Moreover, if the supply line is cut off, the Frost Giant will not be able to plunder food and other supplies from human territory for a long time. Once the weather becomes hot, that is, in three months' time, the Frost Giant will also have to avoid the scorching sun in the sky and hide back in the glacier.

  In three months, it is absolutely impossible for a figure who can command the heroes to stand up again on human territory. At that time, facing the scattered sand-like Northland, Baron Xi Ha Te will lead his troops northward and instantly recover the entire Northland, becoming the true king of the Northland.

  This way, it even had the ability to contend with the Dragon Earl of Southern Bloodstone Castle.

  Both sides have made their calculations, but which way will the scales of war tip?

  The beast head sneered, on human territory, it's not their home court, and with that incompetent Albi, who can be seen, if things go on like this, the Frost Giants will probably be the ones to fall.

  Thoughts returned, the beast head carefully observed the battlefield, looked at the situation where the human cavalry intercepted the Frost Giant army earlier, and carefully observed how effective this simplest clash was.

  The bed crossbow that can penetrate three heavy armored knights can only penetrate one side of the frost giant's armor and cannot completely penetrate the heavy armor on his body, so the frost giant is also only a dozen or so seriously injured, with only a few dead. However, their large clubs swung around, each time knocking down several heavily armored cavalrymen in a circle around them, and every strike would inevitably cause the internal organs of those hit to shatter, causing them to die on the spot with blood spraying everywhere.

  This time, 4 people of the Frost Giants were killed in battle and 57 were injured. However, under the strong physique of the Frost Giants, they soon recovered their strength and jumped around again.

  More than 300 people died on the spot, basically as long as they were hit by the Frost Giant's heavy weapons, it was a dead end, and even leaving a serious injury was difficult.

  In other words, facing the fully armored Frost Giant, only those 48 bed crossbows in Xihate Castle have enough killing power.

  The humans in the Xihate Castle saw this scene and suddenly felt extremely cold. Before they could react, another 300 heavily armored Frost Giants walked over, holding large stones in their arms, apparently ready to throw them over.

  Before the humans in the castle could hide, huge stones were falling from the sky, but not to kill people, they all fell around the bed crossbow, and 12 bed crossbows were smashed into a pile of garbage in an instant.

  Upon witnessing this, Reverend Duncan immediately ordered his men to dismantle all the remaining bed crossbows fixed on the city walls, so as to avoid becoming stationary targets. During this process, the Frost Giants continued to hurl stones, but because many people had gathered beside the bed crossbows, this round of attacks resulted in even more deaths.

  After several rounds, another three to four hundred people died in the Western Hat Castle. The humans on the city wall were both frightened and disheartened, apparently their morale had been crushed by the Frost Giant's terrifying combat power.

  Upon seeing the dejected appearance of humans in the Western Hat Castle, Beast Head burst out laughing.

  On the other side of the battlefield, another human army was still active.

  That's the human vagrants led by Hart and Rezley. Because the Frost Giants suddenly appeared from the north with a large force, they were forced to march towards Paillesburg with their living forces.

  After two days of marching, their vanguard finally arrived in front of Palletsburg and saw that the outer periphery of Palletsburg was surrounded by six layers of ice cones forming a deer stand, and even these deer stands formed a gathering magic circuit.

  Compared to the original setting, these ice cones are more robust and solid, looking much stronger than the defense against Viscount Luther. The original Deer Fort was a cluster of shrubs about one or two meters high, but now the Ice Cone Deer Fort has become a tall tree of three or four meters high.

  And after the war, the tundra absorbed too many lives and blood, and some unspeakable changes have taken place. In short, the cold here is no longer just physical cold, ordinary people will feel a chill and fear emanating from deep within their hearts when they come in.

  As they hesitated about how to proceed, a pile of snow and ice in front of them suddenly stirred, and a lone Iceclaw emerged, walking ahead of them. Apparently, Guagua had seen their arrival from inside and sent this hidden Iceclaw nearby to guide them.

  Harte naturally knew that this icy claw was leading them, so he led his men and followed it in.

  Very close to Palesburg, but circling around in the deer stand for two hours, it took another hour to reach the human refugee camp after putting all hands down at the campsite.
