Chapter 212 Countermeasures
After returning to the manor, Lawrence quickly called a meeting with the people in the manor.
"The Valkyries came to attack us again. Just like they destroyed your family and home, they now also want to destroy our last home." "So
I killed those Valkyries and left no one behind! "
Reglory felt much relieved after hearing that Lawrence had killed the count's daughter.
She killed the earl's son before, and now that Lawrence has killed the earl's daughter, what happened before is definitely not important.
Mandekru said: "Master, I'm afraid we are no match for the Valkyries now."
Lawrence had already thought about this problem and sat on the chair maintaining a calm demeanor.
"Our place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Starting tomorrow, we will build defensive wooden barriers on the main roads nearby, and use assembled logs to block the roads at key points." "People on the mountain must learn to use weapons and bows and arrows
. As long as the Valkyries dare to come here, let them know how powerful we are!"
"God will be with us! God will protect us from being caught and killed by those cruel Valkyries!!" "
We will die this time. His family will be taken care of, and he will not have to worry about food and fuel this winter. His children will also be taken care of by me and grow up to be as brave warriors as their father!" Lawrence quickly spoke to the family members of the deceased
. Condolences, the war is coming, the first thing is to ensure internal unity.
The Pumixiu people also quickly went up the mountain one after another.
Although the Pumi Xiu people were the main culprits who harmed the Western Durila and other slaves in the past, the threat of the Vakiri has now united everyone.
Everyone prayed for the dead soldiers in the church. Both the Pumixiu and the Durila people remained silent in front of the ceremony.
Lawrence sprinkled water on the dead to bless them, burned the corpses and threw them into the river, blessing their souls to escape the shackles of the body, float to the end of the sea, and then rise to the sky with the stars.
After finishing everything, it was already evening. Everyone ate bread made from wheat, as well as wine brewed from fruits and barley, and soon started singing and dancing.
Regardless of whether they are Durila people or Pumixiu people, it is actually very easy to get over sadness.
The same goes for the Valkyries. Most barbarians take death very lightly and have long been used to it.
A few people died, but for most people... they may only have the impression of taking advantage of the opportunity to eat.
The Valkyries only threatened a few Pumixiu people. Most people didn't have the ability to think too much. Everyone was drunk one day and drunk the next.
Lawrence was not that big-minded and quickly convened a meeting of witches.
"What will we do after the Valkyries arrive?"
Lawrence looked at Kehalan and Delenn.
Sofia quickly said: "We shoot them with bows and arrows!"
Lawrence was not so optimistic. "The Valkyries all use shields. Before your bows and arrows hit them, they have already rushed over with shields!"
Salil clicked. Nodding, "Yes, both men and women over there are very good at using shields, and they like to wear helmets, leather armor and iron armor."
Barbarians are just simple-minded. In fact, they will make battle plans in advance whether they are robbing or fighting to prevent fights. After being beaten, everyone ran away.
Everyone knows what to do and where to gather, so the robbery will go smoothly. Not only in terms of tactics, barbarians also pay great attention to food and logistics issues. They especially like to wear tight armor and have coordinated array group fights.
These people know something about ship repair, shipbuilding, iron smelting, riding, and navigation skills.
If it were a town in the plains, it would be impossible to withstand the attacks of these barbarian legions.
Lawrence believed that his advantage was the mountainous terrain, which could neutralize the barbarian cavalry legions.
The Valkyrie pirates rob ships, or land on weakly defended coastlines, looking for vulnerable places along the long coastline for sneak attacks.
Most of the world's population centers are near rivers, and most of the flowing rivers will definitely enter the sea. In turn, from the sea, you can also enter inland areas through rivers.
The Wakiri boats can easily run along the river to the doorsteps of other people's homes and rob tribal city-states that have moved out of their settlements due to population expansion.
The nobles would only hide in their own manors, while most of the peripheral population had no walls to protect themselves.
The mountains and forests do not have these conditions. The Valkyries cannot row in, and they cannot launch a surprise attack if they rely on land transportation.
As long as the battle line is lengthened, standing on the mountain and shooting arrows before the Valkyries are close, and then retreating into the manor wall while fighting, it will be very troublesome for the barbarians to capture this place.
Lawrence said directly: "We don't have that many bows and arrows, so we have to practice javelins and slings. If that doesn't work, we can also throw rocks down on the mountain to hit people." Sofia asked curiously: "What is a sling?" "It's just a hemp rope
bag
. Hold the stone, swing it up, release the rope and use inertia to hit the person far away." Lawrence briefly explained, "Compared to an axe, this kind of stone thrown after a few turns is more lethal, but the accuracy is not good. ."
Delen was a little curious, "Say it again."
Lawrence said calmly: "I will make one for you later, and now we will continue to discuss how to defend against the Valkyrie's attack."
Kharan thought this was not a big problem, "I can Lure them to Mount Talim and kill them with the poisonous gas from the mountain."
Lawrence felt that there was no chance. Both Andrew and Redbeard seemed to know about the poison witch. The Valkyries were very superstitious and most likely knew about it.
But this is also a good thing, at least the Valkyries will not come so quickly.
"I made a log out of wood, inserted a lot of sharp wooden thorns into a large piece of wood, and then placed these big pieces of wood on the mountain road. Those who want to come over will have to move this big piece of wood. Let's take the opportunity to fight them."
"In order to scare the Valkyries, I'm going to make a huge statue and put it in Pumixiu Town, using a fifty-meter-tall version of myself to make them retreat!"
Salil said nervously . Frowning, "I don't quite understand..."
This attack made Lawrence reflect on his behavior.
There was a group of caravans that also looked very unkind before, but there was no fight that time.
After carefully comparing the difference between the two times, Lawrence understood that he showed less power.
This time it can actually be avoided. If the count's daughter finds that all of them are not opponents here, then maybe they will just do business honestly.
In order to make this group of barbarians reason, Lawrence decided to build a wonder building with a higher degree of shock!
