Chapter 275 Amn Cloud

Only more than 6,000 people were willing to go to the dark areas, most of whom were extremely poor citizens.

The city of Ascatra originally had a population of 110,000. After the Knights occupied Amm, commercial activities stopped and migrant population was lost.

After the Knights occupied Am, some citizens fled the city. After the uprising, the merchants and some citizens who did not participate in the uprising also left, leaving only more than 40,000 people in the city.

There are a large number of idle merchant ships in the port, and most of the citizens of Ascatra have stayed on the ship. After the organization of a six-person council, merchant ships have changed the cargo holds into simple cabins. Citizens who are willing to leave go out on a boat and head for an unknown journey.

Thirty-four thousand people stayed in Ascatra City, this number is still decreasing, and people leave every day.

The people who left wanted to escape to other cities in the Feren continent and started their lives again with their names. After the impulse, the people who calmed down regretted it and were scared.

Some people even began to doubt the principles advocated by Bradro, doubt whether mortals can dominate their own destiny, rely on their own efforts to transform the world and create a happy life.

To prove his truth, Bradro had to lead the Ammen to live a better life, but the interference army of the surrounding countries would not give Ammen time. The troops of Tyrel and the Bald Gate of Bode had crossed the border and entered the Ammen border, established a forward barracks, waiting for the subsequent army of other countries to assemble.

The time left for the Ammen can only be calculated in days. Maybe ten days or twenty days, the enemy will drive into the city of Ascatra, set up catapults and siege vehicles, and break through this evil city polluted by demons.

This is a paradox. Any theory cannot be proved by facts, and is not trustworthy to ordinary people.

The citizens of Ascatra were not believers of Bradro. They just developed doubts under the influence of Bradro, which shook their faith in the gods.

In essence, this uprising was based on the system of the Faren gods, and it was the resistance of the Wojin believers to the gods who tried to get involved in their wealth.

However, Goddess Wojin left her kingdom of gods and could not provide any protection to the believers. The Am uprising became the first confrontation between the common people and the gods in Faren's history.

Among the citizens of the uprising, there are only a few people who can truly understand the principles that Bradro preached.

Even the leader of the uprising and Dame Hathaway, who was elected as prime minister, was not a red believer.

...

The new six-person council was quarreled, with a serious situation and a bleak prospect. News that the enemy had entered Amm kept coming back from the front, and the people who lacked unified thinking had a great disagreement.

The standing leaders were at a loss, and they themselves didn't know how to achieve the results they wanted - to return to their original lives.

"Maybe, surrender is our only choice." A wealthy citizen representative finally said this.

"And what, will we be forgiven?"

Han Dake said coldly: "Do you still have fantasies about the gods? In the past, a arena was established in the Copper Crown Hotel, and evil people forced slaves and beasts to fight. Many children were imprisoned in the slave ship prison, but the nobles and temple priests turned a blind eye! They didn't care about our lives or death, and what life we ​​lived. Now, how many paladins have we killed? In the eyes of the priests and lords, we are more evil than demons. Will they forgive the demons?"

"We shouldn't have revolted, we just paid some gold coins... It's too late now, it's all Breedro!"

The wealthy citizen covered his face and sobbed, "If he had never passed Am, we would not have fallen to this point..."

Han Dake was silent for a moment, and he was also a little shaken, but his career as a gladiator made him more aware of the cruel nature of this world than ordinary people.

"No!" Han Dake shook his head and said, "Weak and obedient people will only suffer more! As long as fate is controlled by others, the weaker you are, the more miserable you will be. If I don't know how to resist, I am still suffering in the dungeon of the Tongguan Hotel, or have died in a desperate battle with beasts."

...

Among the more than 30,000 citizens, less than half decided to build a barricade, climb the city wall, and pick up the Miner rifle provided by Bradro to participate in the battle to defend the city.

The rest of the people hoped to pray to the gods' servants after the city was broken, and they turned the blame on others, claiming that they were just coerced and deceived.

Apart from the elderly, weak, women and children, there are actually less than 5,000 people who can fight in this city and are willing to fight.

Bradro provided 600 rifles, which was already the limit of production capacity in the dark area. There were only 600 rebels who were truly equipped with rifles.

...

The gray dwarf guerrillas took advantage of the night to launch a sniper battle at the interfering military barracks. The cold guns from 800 meters away did cause chaos at first. The snipers' highest victory was General Taser, who was shot at the head while inspecting the barracks.

This high-level paladin was not wearing armor when he was shot. In his knowledge, he was in the military camp. The scout had already discovered the surrounding environment and confirmed that the city of Ascatra had not organized an army. He thought it was just a safe and ordinary marching station, but he did not expect that the enemy had weapons beyond the farthest casting distance.

The bullets shot from somewhere in the night caused panic among soldiers and officers. The night-watch cavalry team rushed towards the direction of the gunfire, but halfway through the mines and bombed the sky with people and horses.

The daytime march also encountered a minefield. Among the mercenaries at the Baldur Gate were high-level thieves, but the mine clearance progress was not ideal.

Thieves can only use their experience and skills to remove traps inch by inch of land. The detection spells cast by the mages are ineffective against mine traps for some reason.

Before the subsequent support arrived, the interfering forces of Taser and the Bald Gate did not dare to march easily. The guerrilla tactics did have the effect of delaying the enemy, but after the reinforcements of the mysterious Fire Knights arrived, this tactic was easily cracked by advanced mages.

The mages who blessed the flying technique flew over the minefield and used the summoning spell to summon the huge rocks to drop them. The trigger mine exploded in pieces under the rolling huge rocks.

The advanced druid used earthquake techniques. After the earthquake trembled, the entire minefield that the guerrillas spent one night setting up exploded in the surging soil and rocks, and the tunnels dug also collapsed.

Taking advantage of the night sniper battle, the first time they were defeated, the great mages who activated the advanced stealth technique quietly flew over the sniper position, and the Ruling continued to shock and smashed. The sniper team that had not been able to transfer was severely damaged and several team members were captured.

...

Interfering in the military camp, in a camp tent, Ditra, the chief wizard of the mysterious Knights of Fire, stood at the map table.

On the map table, there were several weapons that looked like magic wands, which were the imitation Mosinnagan sniper rifles seized from the guerrillas.

Next to Ditra, there was a general wearing heavy armor. He was the left and right hand of the Grand Duke of the Flame Fist of the Bald Gate, the deputy commander of the Flame Fist Knights, and General Motes.

"It's hard to imagine that this devil's weapon can shoot more than 2,000 yards away!"

General Yanquan's face was gloomy and terrifying: "Shitish and despicable, you can only hide in the dark to attack. The guy who invented this weapon has no sense of honor!"
