189 - First Assault of Summer

Chapter Type: Conflict (others)

Due to my low level of health, I had to sit out the first assault on the walls near Rice Gate for the summer.  It was horrible.

Not that it was any more horrible than fighting Xinyi Shi, mind you.  But just SITTING THERE, seeing nothing, doing nothing.

"All champions not on roof duty support the walls!" Captain Feng commanded.  It was a risky gamble from one perspective.  The roof of the gate was defended by two champions.  Two. 

On the other hand, how many troops wanted to assault the very point where their hero, Xinyi Shi, had died?  Well, their local hero, at least.

The siege engines hurled large stones back and forth, as their troops charged forward, doing what they could to protect themselves from our archers.  They emplaced ladders, most of which were broken, shoved away, or otherwise neutralized.
