The enemy officer helplessly directed his soldiers to assemble at the Shield Carriers that had reached the ramparts, preparing to scale the walls and fight.
They never expected Henry to be so ruthless. He had completely blocked off the gate, forcing them to waste a significant amount of time and sacrifice so many soldiers for nothing.
Looking back, their Warriors raising shields to defend against the arrows from above had been nothing more than target practice for the enemy!
The enemy soldiers exchanged glances, never imagining Henry would use such a method to halt their assault.
The soldiers manning the battering ram were also dumbfounded. They had gone to great lengths to smash through the gate, only to be met with this outcome.
"What's going on?! Why have they withdrawn from the gate?"
Soon, a light infantryman ran back and reported the situation at the gate, causing the assembled nobles to pound the wooden table in fury.
