My OP Minion System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 226 Overwhelm

The sun was beginning to set on the small village nestled in the countryside, casting a golden glow over the battlefield as I waited for any sign of movement from the enemy.

I was now on high alert, waiting for any sign of movement from the enemy. However, the other side remained still and silent. Chloe grew increasingly agitated, her desire to attack the village growing stronger with each passing moment. But I was determined to see if these villagers had any more surprises up their sleeves before launching an assault.

As I waited, I began to reorganize my army. The magic minions were summoned back to my side, and I ordered the brute force minions to take the lead in the upcoming attack. A line of archers, 20 strong, followed closely behind them, with the warrior minions and swordsmanship minions bringing up the rear. The army was now ready to strike.

Once we had entered the city, we formed a dome-shaped formation and advanced, each member taking their position within the formation. The brute force minions would serve as the vanguard, charging into the village and clearing a path for the rest of the army. The warrior and swordsmanship minions would follow closely behind, ready to engage and defeat any enemy soldiers that remained.

According to intelligence, there were around 70 warriors defending the village. However, it was believed that approximately 20 of them had been injured in the previous fire attack. This left us with a more manageable number of 50 enemy warriors to contend with, a number that I was confident my minions could easily handle.

As the minutes ticked by and there was still no sign of movement from the enemy, I gave the signal for the brute force minions to move forward. They marched towards the gate with determination, their heavy footsteps echoing through the silent streets. But as they reached the entrance, they were met with an unexpected lack of resistance. There was no one there to stop them or attack them.

I approached the village myself, wanting to get a better view of the battle and more effectively control my minions. When I reached a suitable vantage point, I gave the command for them to attack. The brute force minions easily broke through the door, their sheer strength and size overwhelming any resistance they encountered.

But on the other side of the doorway, we were met with a shocking surprise. The villagers had erected a metal wall around the entrance, and their archers were waiting to unleash a hail of arrows upon us. One of the brute force minions and several of the archers were badly injured in the initial attack. The brute force minions quickly formed a shield wall and retreated, pulling back out of the village. It was clear that the villagers had more tricks up their sleeves than we had anticipated.

With my army now outside the village gates once again, the brute force minions held their ground, maintaining a strong shield wall to protect against any further attacks. The villagers seemed to have called off their assault for the moment, and we were left to regroup and come up with a new plan of attack. Breaking through that metal wall was going to be a formidable challenge, but I was determined to emerge victorious.

As the sun began to set on the small village nestled in the countryside, casting a warm glow over the battlefield, I found myself in awe of the villagers' strength and resilience. I had made the mistake of underestimating them, but they had proven to be more formidable than I could have ever imagined. My army was struggling to gain the upper hand, and I knew I needed to come up with a new strategy quickly or risk having to wait until the next day to continue the battle.

I turned to Chloe, hoping to find some inspiration or guidance, but she had no suggestions to offer. The darkness was quickly closing in, and I made the decision to stay put for the night. I ordered the minions to set up a tent for Chloe and me in the middle of the battlefield, and sent an intelligence variant minion to scout the perimeter of the village and see if there was any way to escape. I also sent a few warrior minions and archers with him to provide backup.

As the tent was finally erected, I took shelter inside, surrounded by a ring of magic minions and archers. Warrior minions and swordsmanship minions formed a protective circle around us, while the brute force minions maintained their position at the gate, holding back the villagers with their impenetrable shield wall.

Exhausted from the day's events, I lay down on my makeshift bed, lost in thought as Chloe sat quietly at my side. It wasn't long before the intelligence variant minion returned, requesting permission to enter the tent and share his findings. I granted him entry, and he approached me with a grave expression on his face.

He reported that there was no other way to escape the city, and he had not seen any archers on the wall. However, he had discovered a weak spot in the wall that could potentially be exploited with the help of the magic minions. A glimmer of hope sparked within me at this news, and I knew that I could use this information to devise a new plan of attack.

The battle resumed at dawn, with both sides eager to emerge victorious. I had spent the night devising a new plan of attack, and I was confident that it would prove successful. I summoned the magic minions to the front lines, tasking them with breaking through the weak spot in the village wall that had been discovered the previous night.

As the magic minions set to work, the brute force minions charged forward, their sheer size and strength enough to shatter the door and send the villagers reeling. The warrior minions and swordsmanship minions followed closely behind, engaging the enemy soldiers in hand-to-hand combat. The archers stayed back, raining arrows down upon the village from a safe distance.
