Chapter 645: Chapter 233: Facing the Enemy (10,000 Words)

He stepped forward, moving toward Janet in the near distance.

Coming beside Janet, Joao began to explain, "There’s no need to worry, Janet."

"With the castle walls and my leadership, we will defend with the soldiers."

"We absolutely won’t let the Soldiers of the Three Great Estates invade the Manor Castle!"

Janet glanced at the dark sky, gradually turning grayish.

She said to Joao, "Thank you for your efforts, Uncle Joao."

"First go to Lynn’s territory, then return to the manor and organize personnel for defense..."

"You haven’t rested for a day and a night."

Listening to Janet’s somewhat soft-spoken words, the seriousness and coldness on Joao’s face slightly eased.

"No need to be polite with me, Janet."

"It’s all for making Frank Manor faster and stronger!"

Janet nodded.

Joao shifted his tone and continued, "If the Manor Lords of the Three Great Estates only attack like this..."

"I think even if Lynn doesn’t come for military assistance, there won’t be any problem."

"Relying on the soldiers and guards of Frank Manor, we can hold them off!"

Upon hearing this, Janet’s trimmed eyebrows instantly raised.

If indeed we don’t need Lynn’s military assistance, relying on the Manor Castle walls to withstand the combined offensive of the Three Great Estates.

Then she wouldn’t have to give Lynn any reward!

Not just the farmland of the Three Great Estates. Belonging to Frank Manor.

The labor force and other properties of the Three Great Estates would all belong to Frank Manor.

Labor force would soar, property would accumulate rapidly!

We could recruit more soldiers, buy more armor!

Create an even stronger armed force!

However.

Just as Janet was imagining in her mind.

Roars erupted again from beneath the castle walls.

"Kill! Kill!"

"Charge, charge up!"

"..."

Janet instantly snapped back to reality, her gaze focused on the distance.

Under the gradually brightening sky.

Squads of soldiers from the Three Great Estates launched a new wave of attacks, illuminated by the flames of surrounding bonfires.

Their expressions were distorted and ferocious, even flushed with rage.

The roars came from their throats.

Similarly.

Chain armor soldiers raised shields, charging at the forefront, attracting archer fire.

Light infantry carried cloud ladders, following behind.

The momentum was grander, and the numbers within visible range grew larger.

Janet’s hopeful expression instantly disappeared.

She frowned and said, "Uncle Joao, it seems they’re prepared for a desperate fight!"

Joao contemplated, "A desperate fight? Just throwing their lives away!"

As he spoke.

Joao strode toward the castle walls again, organizing soldiers to continue defense.

Swish, swish, swish~

Under a barrage of arrows, Soldiers of the Three Great Estates fell one after another.

But even this couldn’t halt the advance of Soldiers of the Three Great Estates.

Joao found that the soldiers became increasingly frenzied! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Despite archer fire and the dropping of rolling logs and stones.

Yet ladders were set up again on the manor castle walls.

Led by soldiers wearing chain armor and holding shields, squads of soldiers climbed up the ladders.

Toward the top of the castle walls, climbing upward.

Seeing five or six ladders filled with Soldiers of the Three Great Estates, Joao couldn’t help but frown.

He shouted to the archers, "Shoot at the unarmored soldiers!"

"Reduce the number of enemies climbing the ladders."

"Why have the rolling wood and stones stopped? Keep dropping them!"

Just as Joao’s words ended.

A trembling voice sounded near him.

"Sir, the rolling wood and stones have been used up..."

Joao’s eyes widened instantly, looking over.

"Find anything that can obstruct the enemy’s ladder climbing, throw everything!"

A cacophony of soldier responses sounded.

"Yes."

"Yes, Sir!"

"..."

Joao scanned around the castle walls.

As the soldiers said, all rolling wood and stones had been thrown down.

At this moment.

Another soldier’s voice reached his ears.

"Sir Joao... arrows have also been exhausted."

Joao’s expression turned icy cold.

He abruptly looked at the archer, shouting.

"No arrows left? Pick up your weapons and engage in close combat!"

"Do I need to remind you of such a simple truth?"

The archer retreated fearfully, quickly responding, "Yes... Yes, Sir Joao!"

Emitting a cold snort, Joao’s gaze returned to the ladders ahead.

There, led by shield-bearing soldiers, a squad was about to climb to the top of the walls!

No arrows, no rolling wood and stones.

In addition to the already little pine resin oil, all consumed.

Without long-range attacks to deplete the offensive force of Soldiers of the Three Great Estates.

Facing nearly three times as many soldiers, they could only choose close combat, engage in melee!

Joao moved his right arm, grasping the two-handed greatsword hilt at his waist with his right hand.

As he lifted his right hand, a greatsword with wavy patterns on its blade was drawn from its scabbard.

The friction between blade and scabbard produced a piercing noise!

In the instant when a chain armor soldier climbed the wall.

Joao lifted his right arm abruptly, drawing out the entire greatsword.

As the sword was drawn, his left hand also gripped the hilt.

With the momentum of the sword’s movement, he spun the greatsword in front of him.

The wide, heavy blade landed right on the neck of the chain armor soldier who just climbed the wall!

Crunch!

Despite the soldier wearing chain armor, with chain neck guard at his neck.

But it couldn’t stop Joao Frank’s broad sword.

In a flash, the helmeted soldier’s head flew from his shoulders, blood splattering, rolling backward.

The chain armor soldier’s body, losing support of power, toppled backward, falling off the walls.

One sword killed the first to climb.

Joao showed no hesitation, his body moved, leaping onto the wall.

Alone, facing one Soldier after another from the Three Great Estates climbing the ladders!

At this moment.

Joao resembled a War God.

Every swing of his two-handed greatsword claimed the life of a Soldier from the Three Great Estates!

Cut off arms, split open heads, blood splattered...

With him there.

The soldiers on this ladder of the Three Great Estates couldn’t advance an inch!
