Chapter 59 The Son of Iron, the Shepherd and the Animals Betrayed Humans (for further reading)
In the dark night, from the height of the castle, Ivatar and the others could see three nearby villages engulfed in flames.

And farther away, there are still some flames burning to the place where it seems to be connected to the sky.

Evita understood that it was the children of the forest who were burning the ground.

And if the plan of the children of the forest is successful, then this scene tonight will happen in all places in Ambrose.

When the sky gradually became white and the sun rose, the flames were still burning and billowing black smoke.

Meanwhile, the Children of the Forest finally launched their first attack.

The first is a volley of centaur troops, which are aimed at the piranha group.

More than 2000 centaurs fired a volley, which really covered the sky and the sun, and the arrows fell like raindrops, hitting the magic of the old witch.

On the city wall, the old witch stayed up all night, her eyes wide open, watching the troops of the children of the forest vigilantly.

At this moment, she laughed loudly, and her sharp voice woke up some sleepy peasant soldiers. "A piranha magic cannot be broken with an arrow."

"a ha ha ha……"

"Only the iron son's weapon can hurt my piranha."

Ivita asked strangely: "What is the Son of Iron?"

The Great Witch of Hearthstone said: "The Taboo Book says that when humans first entered Ambrose with iron weapons, the children of the forest called humans the Sons of Iron."

"Only using iron can break my magic."

The first round of arrow rain fell on the ogre flowers, and the moment those arrows landed on the ogre flowers, the woody part of the arrow shaft seemed to come alive, turning into a kind of bending plant. Then it merged with the piranha group.

After this kind of wooden pole is fused with the piranha, half of it is submerged in the stem and leaf of the piranha, and half is exposed outside the stem and leaf of the piranha.

It will obviously take time for Lureflower to integrate with it.

But this time will not be given at all.

Because the second round of arrow rain is coming.

Under the second round of arrow rain, more than half of the piranhas who were still in the fusion stage were unable to resist and were directly shot off.

Then came the third round of arrow rain, and the remaining half of the piranhas were almost wiped out.

After three rounds of arrow rain, the magic carefully arranged by the Great Witch of Hearthstone was broken.

Demon hunter Hei Lang hugged his chest and said, "You seem to have forgotten that the weapons of those children of the forest were stolen from humans, and the heads of those arrows are made of pig iron."

The old witch's face was ugly, but she still replied unconvinced: "Then they also wasted more than 6000 arrows just to deal with my magic."

"This amount is three times our arrow reserve."

Hei Lang was speechless. "It also consumed the other party's supplies of about [-] gold pounds. I can guarantee that they still have more supplies. This is between the mountains, and their supplies are probably transported through the mountains."

Evita stops them from continuing their argument. "They are coming to attack the city."

Fortunately, a semi-finished ravine was dug out last night.

The digging is generally not deep, only more than one meter deep and two meters wide.

But it has been able to prevent the cavalry from coming and going at will under the city.

The first to attack the city were the tauren warriors. Under the command of the pan flutes played by the snake girls, these tauren warriors roared with all their strength and pressed down on the city wall step by step.

Some of them are actually digging the soil with their hands, filling the ditch dug by humans yesterday.

The old witch fell silent when she saw it. "The commander who commands the Sons of the Forest army is really treacherous! I like honest people!"

"The physical fitness of these tauren is far superior to that of adult humans. I have to say that in this aspect, these children of the forest do have a lot of advantages over humans in terms of physical fitness."

Ivita didn't care about this. Human beings can defeat the children of the forest, never relying on physical advantages.

In war, personal bravery is no longer the most important thing.

Tactics, system, inheritance, belief, economy, these are the things that determine the direction of war.

What he cared about was that the opponent didn't have any siege equipment, how did he want to attack the city?

If it is a normal human army, if you want to attack the city, you will definitely need ladders, shields, trebuchets, etc.

However, the children of the forest do not seem to be good at using the combined tactics of engineering technology and military force.

How should a group of silly tauren troops and centaur troops attack the city?

The next moment, the other side gave Ivita the answer.

Some snake girls exude amazing power, even distorting the air around them. Some of them are apprentice priests, and some are formal priests.

Under their snake tails is a ritual pattern of a goat's head painted with human blood. On the ritual pattern, there are also blood of the children of the forest and human flesh.

That was the priestly ritual of the priests.

It's just that the object of the sacrifice is not the ancient tree and ancient soul of the tree spirit, but... the ancient soul of agriculture and animal husbandry!
The bodies of the snake girls grew bigger one by one, like small giants.

The apprentice priest became as tall as three meters.

Official priests are a full five meters tall.

They stood out from the crowd in the army, and the Tauren and Centaur troops looked like thin dwarfs around them.

The snake girls played the pan flute, and the sound had some kind of magical power, after people heard it, they couldn't help but want to go with them.

Many animals began to appear between the mountains and gathered below the city wall.

There are tigers, wild boars, black bears, hounds, forest wolves, and even sheep and cattle escaped from the countryside.

The Griffin knight trotted over quickly, bowed his head to Ivita and said, "My lord, the horses in the castle also started to go crazy when they heard these flutes, and wanted to rush out of the stables."

"Our horses may be temporarily unavailable."

"That means we have no cavalry."

The old witch opened the forbidden book. "It's the priests of God Pan who are playing tricks. The priests of God Pan are called [shepherds]. He can give believers the ability to guide animals."

"In the age of the children of the forest, as long as God Pan sang a song, animals could cheer and follow him. It is even said that even trees and rivers would dance in response to God Pan's singing."

"In the era when humans and the children of the forest were still friends, God Pan often led the way for humans and the children of the forest who lost their way in the forest."

"Among the ancient souls believed by the children of the forest, God Pan is definitely the most special ancient soul other than the tree god of the Great Sequoia. According to the taboo book, even our ancestors suspected that God Pan was not a child of the forest, nor was he a native The ancient soul, because his earliest footprints were in the territory of the ancient civilization."

The old witch realized later: "By the way, the most famous ancient civilization is the temple. It's just that the temple has been inactive for a long time recently, and everyone has almost forgotten about them."

Ivita turned her head and saw the animals gathered by Xiao Sheng, rushing to a certain place on the city wall as if committing suicide.

Bodies piled up.

Ivita immediately understood that the other party wanted the troops of the Children of the Forest to step on the piled up animal carcasses and climb up the city wall!

This is the answer given to him by the children of the forest.

A siege method that can only be used by the children of the forest.

Ivita said: "The horses can't be used if they can't be used temporarily. Anyway, we can stick to the castle and don't need cavalry. If those horses are really disobedient and out of control, they can be killed and eaten."

"Prepare the trebuchet and smash it down."

The human city wall also started a counterattack.

There are also ten trebuchets in the warehouse in Molo Castle. The children of the forest are not interested in this kind of thing, so they kept it.

They can learn to use iron-headed bows and arrows, which is already learning from human civilization.

And something like a trebuchet is too deep for them.

The militiamen put gravel into the counterweight trebuchet on the city wall, and then flipped a switch to let the trebuchet throw stones.

The stone fell into the tauren army, killing and wounding many tauren.

The troops of the children of the forest actually lack professional paths other than the priest path.

Farther away from the castle, the ancient soul of agriculture and animal husbandry opened sleepy eyes. "Humans, feel the anger from the forest and the animals. You have occupied this land for too long, and there are no animals in your eyes."
