Lord of the North

So Atum grinned: "Go back, and work hard behind General Roland and General Leonidas. There are many things in them that are worth learning from."

He didn't reprimand Rowell, nor did he directly point out his mistakes, but advised him to return to Roland and the others. He also experienced this state when he was young, confused and at a loss.

Although he also felt sad for the group of civilians, war is like this, there are no outsiders, and these civilians are victims of interests just like the soldiers who are fighting on both sides.

"I……"

Rowell opened his mouth, he was a little embarrassed, he had a bad fight with Leonidas and the others before, and he didn't know how to get along with them after returning.

"Go back and apologize and admit your mistake. They are not the kind of small-minded people." Atum still knows his child very well, and he can tell what he is thinking by seeing his hesitation.

Hearing this, Rowell blushed again, nodded awkwardly, then got up and left.

"Still too young."

After Rowell left, Atum sighed quietly. He didn't sit in this position because he was sympathetic to the common people.

On the contrary, he got to this point by killing many competitors. He didn't know how many innocent people died in the process.

A few days later, under the command of Earl Hicks, more than 800 civilians cried and shouted all the way, and were driven by a group of soldiers to slowly advance towards the city wall of Baria Pass.

Among these civilians were not only old people and women, but even some children who were waiting to be fed, but Earl Hicks still cruelly drove them to the battlefield.

In other words, all of this is Cecil's arrangement. He has become paranoid and unscrupulous in order to regain the Barea Pass, because he originally applied for this plan to Sandra.

This cruel scene made some soldiers under Earl Hicks couldn't bear to continue watching, let alone those soldiers stationed in the Baria Pass.

For example, Rowell anxiously shifted his eyes to Roland, who was full of seriousness and intolerance. The meaning was self-evident. Although he had already figured it out, he still hoped to see Roland order to save these innocent people.

It is a pity that what he is destined to wait for is not the result he wants to see.

"Lord Roland,

These civilians can no longer be approached, there are a large number of archers in the army that engulfs the civilians! "

At this time, a soldier ran over and reported to Roland anxiously.

The soldier was in a mess at the moment. Should he aim his bow and arrow at those unarmed civilians? He asked himself that it was impossible.

But if these civilians were to sit and watch these civilians approach the city wall, then the thousands of soldiers in the Baria Pass would be in danger.

It's just that before Roland could respond, someone had already solved this troublesome problem for him.

"Spartans obey orders!"

Leonidas' grim voice echoed off the walls, drawing everyone's attention.

"Prepare to throw the spear!"

boom!

The Spartan warriors in heavy armor neatly pulled out a throwing spear from behind, and aimed coldly at the civilian team in the distance.

Immediately, the eyes of everyone on the city wall changed. Don't these people have a trace of sympathy?

At this time, the civilians in the distance had also noticed the changes on the city wall, and the crying and howling in the team became louder, but unfortunately it did not shake the steely and cold hearts of the Spartan soldiers.

At the same time, the hearts of the enemy troops outside the city also felt a chill. They wouldn't really want to shoot and kill these civilians, would they?

"Civilians outside the city listen, stop your progress immediately, or we will show no mercy!" Leonidas did not immediately order the attack, but roused himself and shouted.

It's a pity that his words are doomed to have no effect at all, because those civilians feel that if they go forward, maybe the compatriots on the city wall will not be cruel to shoot arrows, and there may still be a glimmer of life, but as long as they stop, the people behind them will die. Soldiers will never show mercy.

Before life and death, all people are selfish, and like Leonidas, these commoners are the same.

"Don't blame us."

Roland murmured softly, even if he asked himself, he might not be able to hear what he said clearly.

Seeing that the group of civilians not only did not stop because of their hanging ears, but moved faster under the urging of the enemy.

Seeing this situation, Leonidas eyes became cold, and he roared angrily: "Attack!"

call! call! call!

There was a huge sound of piercing through the air, and hundreds of spears roared down the city wall, stabbing mercilessly among the civilians, because there were hundreds of enemy soldiers among them, and how many of them were archers Leonidas did not know , so it is impossible for him to ignore the threat of these people.

Immediately, there were bursts of screams and curses under the city wall, and the civilians reprimanded Leonidas cruelty before dying.

Blame him for disregarding his own life and death, and curse him for a bad death.

But Leonidas didn't hear about them. His purpose was to clean up these civilians. Although it would hit the morale of the troops stationed at Baria Pass, it was much better than making them take care of the civilians and dare not take action.

There is nothing to lose at the Barria Pass.

"Counterattack! Counterattack!"

Seeing that Earl Hicks' plan had failed, a man who looked like a general pulled out his sword and shouted towards the city wall.

Sure enough, as his voice fell, hundreds of enemies and even some soldiers disguised as civilians took out their bows and arrows and shot wildly at the city wall.

"Archers! Fight back!"

Leonidas eyes turned cold, a spear dropped out of his hand and pierced through the general in an instant, then turned his head and shouted orders to the group of archers who didn't know what to do.

"But...general...those civilians..." an archer commander hesitated.

"I said, shoot the arrow!"

Leonidas' eyes were full of evil spirits. If the commander continued to behave like a mother-in-law, he might have to change the commander himself.

"Yes! General!"

Immediately, in the desperate eyes of the surviving civilians, a rain of arrows rose from the city wall of the Baria pass, and soon after, all the civilians near the city wall died under the spears thrown by the Spartan soldiers and the arrow rain of the archers.

In other words, they all died under the order of Leonidas, without the civilians acting as protective talismans, and what followed was the cruelest fight between the two armies.

However, after this war, Leonida's "cold-blooded" reputation will soon spread throughout the Lopez Kingdom.

"General Cecil, it seems that your plan has failed."

In the barracks of Earl Hicks, he looked at Cecil Shun who was sitting in front of him with a cold face.

"fail?"

Cecil sneered: "No, no, how could we fail? Jason's reputation is much more important than this Barea pass."
