Because, they can't figure out the force of the opponent and due to lack of soldiers, 200 soldiers in charge, it wasn't a good number to initiate an attack.
After all this fortress wasn't an army concentrate, it's just a training ground for young soldiers.
Senja walked briskly behind the two leaders, she was having difficulty to catch up with them.
It was one hours of tough debate just to convince them that she hadn't had hidden agenda. One hour more to convey her idea and give them the detail how it could help and another two hours to merge and finally materialized the idea into action.
From their discussion she could conclude that in this era they were know nothing about explosion let alone heavy weapon like cannon.
Senja almost lost her breath to talk for four hours nonstop, not to mention that she have to analyze their reaction and sensed their feeling to make them convinced in her. Both of them really have a tacit understanding between each others. They were limiting their communication to prevent them from revealing too much in front of her.
"Now we are here, and we have prepared all things that you need. You can start now!" Captain Hua said that with authority.
Senja who was gasping for breath give him an irritated look, but didn't drag it too long. She walked towards the table, rolled her sleeves and started to mix every component on the table with careful calculation.
She was trying to make a simple small explosion. It wasn't her first time made this kind of thing, previously she had made this, though not too often, in order to distract attention to help her run away when she was on mission.
All the credit went to Sian who had taught her.
Its only took her 5 minutes before she finished. She brought a small bottle that contained with powder and piece of clothes that soaked into alcohol which was stuffed in the mouth of the bottle, to the middle of the field.
"Back off!". Her voice loud enough for all the soldiers to hear but for her surprised no one of them moved. She glared to them and looked at Captain Hua with a mean look.
"Back off". He commanded his soldiers without averted his defiant stare from Senja.
All the soldiers retreats five steps, now their eyes full of curiosity regarding what will Senja do.
She put the bottle on top of tree cut, because she didn't have a gun to initiate a fire and of course they can't provide it to, hence she had asked them to give her a bow and fired arrow. She walked to the soldier who held them and with confidence stretch it without hesitation, aimed to the piece of clothes part.
Even though this was her first time to have a contact with bow and arrow but she was confidence with her marksmanship. Both of it have same point right? Just aim to the right spot.
She can felt the ecstatic feeling around her that boosted her confidence more. Haughtily she locked the target and released the arrow.
But, as the saying goes, "practice make perfect". How Senja could mastered bow and arrow in her first attempt. Therefore, the arrow just shot a few meters then dived to the ground before reach the target.
The ecstatic atmosphere turn dull and then awkward.
Senja just stand there, stared blankly to the pathetic arrow.
Damn! How embarrassing!
Senja gritted her teeth silently, she overestimate her capability and ignore the fact that she doesn't know anything about archery.
