Defending A City With Just Two Loaves Of Bread

At its very core, war is essentially throwing everything you have at your enemy and hoping that they break first. And at times, that breaking point can be as much a psychological one as a physical one. Wars of attrition, as in the case of prolonged siege warfare, are all about seeing who can last the longest. And today's story is all about one of those siege warfare breaking points, and how an army was defeated by a woman who had nothing but her cunning, boldness and two loaves of bread.
