"Steady now", said the warlord. "On my orders you will fire upon those brigands as soon as they come into line of sight! They will not stand in my way when I lay siege to this rotting pile of dung they call city! Then release all cannons! I want to hear the clamour of battle as they fall from the clouds!"
