Chapter 9 Trap (2)

"Bjorn." Ella's brow locked up. It was really difficult to deal with it according to Alfred's description. His magic can attack from a distance, making it difficult to trap him. Once he breaks through the wall, defense becomes meaningless. In addition, even if he is close, his swordsmanship is very troublesome.

She unconsciously turned her eyes to Amy: "Amy, your Loki's protective..."

"Ivar is Bjorn's brother." Amy replied, "even if I want him to help me, he won't help."

"I'm sorry, it's my problem." Ella said apologetically. To reach the Elves level or above, Lokikagu needs to give Amy's body to Ivar. She shouldn't have mentioned this anyway.

Seeing Ella feel guilty, Amy hurriedly added: "But I can use Aphrodite's protection to help. Although I can't completely stop Bjorn's actions, it's still okay to interfere with him."

"If you do this, you can only hope for you, Graheide." Ella turned her head and looked at Graheide. "Once Bjorn comes on the court, you and all your archers will aim at him and keep shooting."

"Aim at Bjorn all?" Grahead replied, "To be honest, this may not be effective, and we will not be able to support the battlefield."

"It's good that it can interfere with Bjorn so that she can't break through the city wall. If you lose the city wall, no matter how much archer support you can't get back."

"If this happens, my subordinates can also participate." Alfred said. "Although Graheide is the strongest archer in Britain, I still have a group of people who are slightly inferior."

The combat plan was decided like this. Although everyone felt that some of the plans were not very satisfactory, no one could come up with a better plan for the time being.

"Then let's talk about the most important thing!" Ella put her head in front of Alfred, "Your troops will easily steal the house and let my troops do such a difficult job. Do you have to say something? How much money is left in your treasury? Tell me?"

"It's such a pirate-like negotiation." Alfred smiled. "Although I know Sweden is poor, it's a pity that there's not much money left here."

"How could this happen!" Ella shouted, "Then I'm a free mercenary! Although the Island Republic also regarded me as a mercenary at the beginning, it also gave me some money!"

"Aren't we allies? Why do we talk about money?" Alfred said, "How about this? I see that your Swedish soldiers are mainly infantry. After the war is over, I will support you a group of war horses and send a few knights to help you train your cavalry team?"

"Well... I still want money."

"I know that Swedish horses are stronger than ours," said Alfred. "But the formation of a cavalry team is not just about horses. Without experienced commanders and good training, it is just people riding horses."

Ella remembered the First Field Army, which was mainly cavalry but was about to collapse every time, and the Iron-armored Paladin, which was small in number but could play a key role every time.

"Okay...but during the time of defending the city, my troops all ate yours and drank yours!"

"It's Swedish food that has encountered difficulties," Alfred replied. "It's not just during the city defense, but after the war, I can support you a little, although not much."

The agreement was reached like this. Alfred began to recruit citizens for planned trap operations. However, the Black Death had already risen in Winchester, so there were not too many people recruited. Fortunately, most of the people who were already sick were in prison, and the situation was easy to control. Ella sent someone to clean the prison, put some flea medicine and rat poison, and then continued to place the people who were already sick in prison. Others went to other places for isolation.

The sulfonamides in the army were 3,000 in total. According to the number of people who might have developed the disease, the number was far from enough. They could only wait for Paracelsus's support. As for Dan, although Ella asked him to make the sulfonamide, she did not have much hope - he alone had limited manpower, and his "drugs" were really hard to describe. If Dan had not produced the antidote to eliminate the smell of hair the next morning, Ella would not even want to tell him the formula for sulfonamide.

Those who died of the Black Death, as well as the corpses dug out of the city's hearts, were piled up like mountains, and Winchester had no time to bury them. But these were kept accelerating the spread of the Black Death, so they could only pile them outside the city and sprinkle oil and burn them. The fire that burned the corpses lasted for several days, and rats and flies screamed and fled in the fire, as if they had seen the end of the world.

After these tasks were completed, Ella took Amyden to the city wall to inspect the completion of the trap. Half a month has passed since the combat meeting, and the planned traps and equipment are advancing at an unexpected speed, but Ella still seems worried.

"Amy, to be honest, I'm not sure whether these traps and equipment can work." Ella said, "It would be great if I had someone above the strength of a big elf. I have already done the plan to cultivate a big elf magician, but I can't find a suitable candidate who is familiar with astronomy."

"Your Majesty, I still don't understand what astronomy has to do with magic." Amy said, "Your Majesty, you are the best astronomy, and you still don't know magic? And you obviously don't know magic, why are you sure that you can cultivate magicians above the big elves according to your plan?"

"Not sure, I just think it's worth trying." Ella sighed, "Forget it, don't want these unrealistic things anymore. Otherwise, I'll write another letter to adjust Gotfried, but he shouldn't be able to come..."

"If your Majesty feels embarrassed, you can actually retreat directly." Amy said, "I always feel that we are at a disadvantage in Alfred's proposal. And the situation has become like this now, which is completely a problem with Alfred's strategic deployment. Your Majesty has already achieved the best of his kindness to rescue Alfred."

"If our opponent was only the Aztlanders, we could indeed retreat. But as soon as Bjorn appeared, the situation changed. Amy, you wouldn't think that after Bjorn took Scotland and Ireland, would you leave the pirate kingdom alone?"

Amy was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and replied: "Indeed, his father and three brothers all died at the hands of His Majesty and Hestein, and his territory was taken away. After gaining a foothold in Scotland, he will definitely take revenge."

"I think he was the boss of Hestein in the past." Ella sighed, "I really want to leave his affairs to Hestein to solve them."

At this moment, a knight hurriedly ran to the city wall.
