Attack

Hello to each and everyone of you guys and girls I hope that all of you are having a good day today and are ready to read the next chapter of my knights of the round table story which I hope that all of you are still enjoying as much as I am writing it for you guys and girls. Now for my question of the day and that is since spoiler the rest of this story will be focused on the war in the Stormlands during Roberts rebellion before going onto book two. Now for my question of the day is do you think Mace Tyrell was being an Idiot or a strategic genius during Roberts rebellion? Personally it speaks to George RR Martin writing where it is hard to place with his characters but I think he is truly a fool and thought he was doing the best action possible. But that is me please let me know what you think and now lets get on with the story shall we.

Balinor POV

Looking down at the Reachmen as they had begun to line up their men in preparation for an attack, they had prepared siege ladders and three battering rams, also behind them they were building five catapults but only two of them had been built. Over the past month they had been busy with building their camps, but they were not having an easy time as the garrisons that left the castles to hide in the country had been attacking the Reach supply lines as well as isolated patrols I imagine. For the past two weeks the lord Tyrell would line up his men for an attack, but he never followed through and for the past week I have been shouting down insults upon him and his men leaving them no choice but to take my words before I would then step out and offer any man to fight me on one on one combat. Each day a few dozen would try their luck confident they would best me when others fail, some I killed while others I captured. For a land that has the most knights they seem to lack in quality.

Gran:"Do you think his men will stop listening to him or are they going to keep listening to him?"

Balinor:"I doubt that, they will do as he says even if most of them are levies, but I think they will be attacking soon."

Gran:"Why mi lord?"

I pointed my fingers to the back of the camp.

Balinor:"Look back there, you see the ladders they have in their hands, all the other times they did not have ladders, and those catapults are loaded, ready to make us stay away from the walls, but the most important indicator it this."

I moved my hand over to my stomach which seemed to confuse him.

Balinor:"Hunger, they have not been getting many supply wagons, I imagine desperation has sunk in making them want to attack us in the hopes of being able to get out of here."

Gran:"so, why do their ladders look bigger than our walls."

I nodded, the ladders were quite tall, taller than the walls they would need to scale.

Balinor:"if I had to guess, they are so long because they would be using them not only to climb up onto the walls but also to climb over our stakes."

Gran:"shit. Should we have tried to make it bigger when we had the chance?"

Balinor:"don't worry about it, if they are going to use them like that then we will not need to worry about them for long, but what I am more concerned with is them."

I pointed my finger out at the ram's which were nothing too special, just a big tree trunk with the end carved smooth at the end, but next to the ram were men with row boats holding them upside down so our longbow men will have a harder time to hit them.

Gran:"Well, can't we just shoot fire arrows at them?"

Balinor:"Wont work, fire arrows more often than naught go out after you fire them."
