Lu Li saw that quite a few of his teammates had died in battle . However, Glory Capital also lost a few people when attacking the sentry tower, so Lu Li did not take it too seriously .
Of course, this extent of damage was quite severe, but Lu Li was already psychologically prepared .
Glory Capital had already repelled Ruling Sword and taken a few pieces of equipment from them . Sorrowless gave orders to completely destroy the two sentry towers . They had 20 chariots in the middle team . Even if the System updated and buffed the sentry towers, this still wouldn't take them too much time .
Sorrowless was quite confident . A Stronghold Attack would take as long as two hours . If Lu Li used the strategy of only protecting the spawn point, then the Stronghold of the Black Sea Coast would have to change hands today .
"How are your people doing over there?" Sorrowless asked the people on the other two paths .
"They ran away after our wave attacked them . We picked up two pieces of equipment . The quality is not bad, haha," they quickly reported .
"What about the other team?" Sorrowless asked .
"Killed four people . Picked up three pieces of equipment and two epics," the other side replied .
"Good, I'd actually rather delay like this, because we don't know if Ruling Sword will be able to keep on dropping equipment," Sorrowless said, revealing his well thought-out plan .
They continued to move forward, and very soon arrived at the second sentry tower . However, contrary to Sorrowless' plans to wait for people, there was unexpectedly no one at all below it . Their expectation of a slowly-resisting Ruling Sword didn't play out . Could it be that those damned rats didn't dare to meet face to face like this?
It was a bit of a shame that they couldn't keep forcing Ruling Sword to lose equipment .
"Damn, there's people! Everyone be careful…" Blood Dagger roared loudly, but before he finished speaking, Ruling Sword's skills rained down around them .
Sorrowless' train of thought was broken, and he finally realised that his plan to wait meant that they were surrounded .
On three sides there were players, and on the fourth was the sentry tower!
More than 70 people were besieging the 40, and Sorrowless' heart sunk .
"Protect the retreat of the chariots, and merge the other two teams together with the middle team . " Being suddenly met by this scenario, Sorrowless didn't panic for too long but chose to withdraw strategically . As long as the chariots were protected, there was still hope for this Stronghold Attack .
"Mages and berserkers, attack the chariots . Everyone else, attack the cloth-armored players," Sky Moon said smugly .
While the chariots were retreating in defeat, they could gather their strength and attack all at once . This was a bug that Sky Moon discovered early on . As long as Glory Capital's forces split into three, they would still be able to besiege them . After Lu Li handed power over to Sky Moon, he knew he had the ability to prove himself .
Right now, his achievement was that he had defeated wave after wave of Glory Capital's forces .
Out of 40 people, only 21 were left, and of the 20 chariots, in the middle team, 7 had been lost . After Sorrowless and the other two teams merged together, they could see their losses more clearly . They wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully that night .
Lu Li also felt that this result was incomprehensible . He definitely didn't expect this outcome at all .
Sky Moon had only gone with Lu Li once to an Instance Dungeon before . From listening to his way of speaking, Lu Li thought that Sky Moon was quite intelligent . He could also tell he was ambitious with his strategies . No one would have thought that he would bring on this pleasant surprise for everyone .
Although it was Sky Moon who thought out this plan, Lu Li made everything possible . After all, it was he who had allowed a nobody replace him in command . This action made people feel that Lu Li was too deep to be understood . At the very least, Wandering had no idea how Lu Li came to know about Sky Moon .
"In total, we destroyed seven chariots and two more received heavy damage . We killed 19 people and got 12 pieces of equipment, 10 pieces of which were Epics," Sky Moon reported excitedly to Lu Li .
"You did a beautiful job!" Lu Li praised .
"Haha, if we keep this up, there's no way they'll be able to besiege the city today!" Sky Moon laughed, not even trying to hide his satisfaction .
"There's no chance of that happening . They'll merge together and attack one path . "
Lu Li could understand Sorrowless . There was a chance that this kind of surprise attack could be effective, if done once . If they could deceive Sorrowless a second time, then he didn't deserve his reputation .
"Yes, I suppose so," Sky Moon said after giving it some thought .
As expected, Glory Capital soon merged all their people and chariots onto the main road . They also adopted the tactic of rapid attacks without concern for cost .
If they went this way, Glory Capital's losses would be severe .
In this battle, both sides seemed to be picking up the other side's equipment . However, due to Sky Moon's earlier deception of Sorrowless, Ruling Sword might have had a slight advantage in the end .
After about an hour, Glory Capital finally managed to push the battle line under Ruling Sword's Black Sea Coast Stronghold .
Sorrowless expected that this would only take half an hour, but Ruling Sword's firm resistance gave no chance for him to have a quick battle . Furthermore, Sky Moon also organised a few assaults without regard for their own losses . Sometimes, to reach the goal, you didn't have the freedom to pick between attack options .
Quite frankly, the happenings of today showed that Lu Li had really chosen the right provisional commander .
Lu Li's bold choice probably dimmed his limelight a little, but to him, this really wasn't anything negative .
Lu Li had never thought of becoming the greatest commander, nor did he want to make a name for himself in the game . When Lu Li found a person like Sky Moon, he gave him an opportunity to display his personal skills to other followers . This would encourage others as well . The more people like Sky Moon in Ruling Sword, the better the guild would develop . No matter how well this person did, it was Ruling Sword overall who would benefit the most .
"They've only got a dozen or so chariots left . Let's see how they can continue to be aggressive," Sky Moon said as he cruelly rubbed his hands . It was hard for him to contain his excitement .
Glory Capital's resurrection point was already set underneath the city, so Lu Li also went back on top of the city wall . He didn't take back the authority to command, but rather continued to let him command the important responsibility of guarding the city wall .
Sky Moon was not calm enough and seemed to show a whole range of emotions, from satisfaction to worry .
It was clear that when Lu Li had not been reborn yet, Sky Moon was an impressive person in this group, but had never had the chance to show his worth . Therefore, Lu Li had never heard of his name before .
Sky Moon now had a chance to quickly advance his career .
In his heart, a voice roared at him, "Protect the Stronghold! Protect the Stronghold! As long as you protect the Stronghold, Lu Li will treat you fairly . After this day, you will able to achieve your aspirations in this game . "
"Be careful of their cannonballs," Lu Li reminded gently, at his side .
Normal cannonballs were given by the commander of a city battle and were considered a gift that came with buying a chariot . These cannonballs were grey, but Glory Capital was now taking away their grey ammunition and replacing these with cases of red cannonballs . Lu Li was paying very careful attention to notice this change, but Sky Moon was a little too excited .
