They were elite warriors who could no longer be measured by common sense!
Yet Baron Barthon's soldiers all knew that a few months earlier, an attack on this village had miserably failed, sending 13 apprentice knights, 50 elite soldiers and 200 soldiers.
More than 90% of the men sent had died during this attack, a real tragedy.
But despite this defeat, the losses of the mercenaries and soldiers of Baron Irut were also enormous!
Almost 70% of the defense of the village of Plouta had been annihilated!
So everyone thought that this time, the remaining mercenaries and soldiers would be wiped out.
Even if a few civilians were recruited as mercenaries, and Baron Irut sent some reinforcements, could they reach the level of defense they had before the first attack?
The answer in a normal world was no, it was unlikely.
But Baron Barthon was a very cautious man, so when he organized this attack against the village of Plouta, he always envisaged the worst-case scenario.
