Under Lionheart City.
A dozen huge army formations lined up, and the blue dragon flag was flying.
Under the unified military flag, there are various badges of other nobles, including the sword and shield of the King of Conquerors, the sharp claws of Viscount Barle, the blue leaf of Baron Terry, and the lion head of Garcia...
On the city wall, Grand Duke Wellington looked at the coalition forces below expressionlessly, his hands already clenched in secret.
The people from the Shadow Hand never contacted him again, William the Conqueror, who was supposed to die, came here, and immediately knew that the assassination was his instigator... All of this, like a nightmare, dragged him down. In the bottomless abyss, no matter how hard you struggle, it will be useless.
"Saga Wellington!"
A war horse rushed out from the army formation, and a blue armored knight was riding on it. He was full of vigor, and his loud voice could be heard far and near.
"I swear in the name of William Wallace, the ruler of the Windying Plain, the king of the Windying people, and the conqueror. As long as you surrender immediately, I will still make you the Duke of Wellington and make Lionheart City your I will forgive you for your despicable deeds and the crimes you committed! As long as you surrender!"
"Surrender!"
"Surrender!"
"Surrender!"
…
Twenty thousand people cheered together, beating shields and armors, and the momentum was earth-shattering.
"That's the King of Conquerors—William Wallace?"
Grand Duke Saga of Wellington looked at the vigorous Wu Ming below, with a more gloomy expression on his face and a trace of vigilance at the same time.
He was keenly aware of the changes in the vassals under his command. After all, Garcia Wellington had defected to the King of Conquerors and was still reused. Of course they could too.
As for whether the Wellington family will be split up? To be honest, if it is a small nobleman in the branch, maybe he would like to do so.
"Let's shoot!"
Wellington was silent for a while, as if he was considering this suggestion carefully, then looked north, and finally waved his hand.
call out!
A long arrow was thrown, and it fell with exhaustion when it was more than ten feet in front of Wu Ming.
This is not blocking, but declaring the breakdown of negotiations, which can only end in war.
"Sure enough, it still doesn't work. It seems that Weilong was sent out to ask for help from Ice City to the Horn of Storms. Did it give you confidence?"
Wu Mingle turned his horse's head and returned to the army formation: "Attack!"
"attack!"
A general next to him screamed hoarsely, and the sound of a thick horn suddenly sounded.
Boom! Boom!
One after another, the army continued to move forward, causing the Wellingtons on the city wall to panic: "What is that?"
At the forefront of the army formation were shield and spear troops, as well as crossbowmen and knights guarding both sides. Of course they knew these troops.
But among Wu Ming's army, they also saw many strange things.
For example, the giant log that was eight feet long and was pushed on a cart. Now they probably know that it is the 'Holy Fire' that William received in the church propaganda. Artillery.
But other than that, the ladders and archery towers as high as the city walls, the thick and solid siege vehicles that looked like huge shelled monsters, and the last trebuchet were beyond their understanding.
"Let the catapult do the work first. Once the enemy's morale is hit, the wooden cannon and the ladder tower siege vehicle will go up immediately. The soil engineering team will send out tools and be ready to dig tunnels and plant gunpowder at any time."
As Wu Ming passed down the orders one by one, Viscount Bale looked at Lion Heart City with pity.
Even he was dumbfounded when he heard the purpose and power of these weapons at the military meeting just held.
The jazz who used to develop business in the Carross Territory not only came up with many wonderful ideas that could capture a large number of Jin Delong, but also used his wisdom to siege and kill people is just as terrifying!
"The trebuchet is ready!"
A large number of soldiers shouted and used crowbars, mallets and other tools to put a 100-pound boulder into the strangely shaped trebuchet.
Different from ordinary trebuchets, these trebuchets designed by Wu Ming directly adopt a mature design, add a counterweight, and use steel parts for important parts. , can be called the siege weapon of the cold weapon era.
"emission!"
Accompanied by the order, more than a dozen counterweight trebuchets roared immediately, smashing a dozen boulders weighing more than one hundred pounds on the city wall of Lionheart City.
Boom!
The rocks splashed, smashing the stunned defenders into meat paste.
Boom!
A large hole was opened on the city wall, and countless cracks spread.
Boom!
Like an earthquake, this repeated taste of heaven and earth was extremely terrifying psychological pressure for any ancient soldier.
"The trebuchet continues, and whoever can hit the city gate, I will directly reward him with a hundred Jin Delong!"
Wu Ming looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction: "After three rounds of throwing stones, the ladders and siege vehicles stepped forward, and the crossbowmen suppressed the defenders of the city wall, covering the wooden cannons and earthwork troops!"
The ladder, the arrow tower, and the city wall are as high as the city wall, and the archers above do not have to look up to attack the city wall, which is considered to have obtained the right to fight on an equal footing.
However, there are extraordinary knights in this world, individual bravery is exaggerated to the extreme, but the study of overall combat skills is somewhat superficial.
Under the suppression of Wu Ming's experience gap in carrying a world, no matter how many people defending the city, it will immediately appear that it is not supported.
"Order our family knights to attack and destroy those wooden monsters!"
However, this world is different from the ordinary world, that is, the existence of knights, which can be used as sharp knives on the battlefield.
For example, at this time, after seeing the ferocious side of these siege equipment, the Duke of Wellington immediately issued an order.
"Brave and loyal!"
"For glory!"
"charge!"
Many knights wore armor, charged up the city wall, dodged most of the attacks with agility, and jumped onto the arrow towers and ladders. It was a massacre immediately.
Of course, some unlucky knights were set on fire, and their deaths were horrible.
Even with extraordinary power, they are still flesh and blood after all. If they are hit by a trebuchet, they will still turn into a pile of meatloaf.
"Our knights are coming too!"
After subduing the entire Fengying Plain and gaining the allegiance of some highland nobles, the number of knights in Wu Ming's hands is no less than that of Grand Duke Wellington.
After the entire Knights joined the battle, the situation stabilized instantly.
"Hehe... kill it! Kill it!"
On the city wall, a ladder was built on a wooden bridge, and a steady stream of soldiers were sent to the city wall. A tall, demon-like knight wearing a horn helmet rushed over swiftly, wielding a huge iron axe, Wherever they go, there will be a storm of flesh and blood.
He roared like a raging beast.
"The wild beast Leif! This is the strongest mad dog under my uncle!"
Garcia watched this scene, his pupils shrank.
"It's just a knight, maybe there is still a breakthrough, it can be regarded as a great knight, but so what?"
Just as Wu Ming's indifferent voice fell, there was a loud noise.
During the explosion, a terrifying metal storm swept across.
It turned out that on the arrow tower, a wooden cannon was secretly stored, which was specially used to open up the situation on the city wall.
This Leif was unfortunately at the very center, and his body was torn apart immediately, with blood and internal organs flying together.
The hellish scene made Garcia feel sick immediately.
"You see... To cultivate a knight like Leif, you not only need to train from a young age, prepare horse armor, but also need holy oil and rewards from the manor. Where you can go in the end depends entirely on luck!"
Wu Ming smiled and said: "But what is our loss? A dozen soldiers, plus a wooden cannon? It's not even one-tenth of what it takes to train knights! This is the victory of the system and the potential of war!"
Garcia was originally a smart person, and now he understood it as soon as he heard it.
He also knows a little about the manufacture of wooden cannons. A few carpenters and blacksmiths came out after half a month of tinkering, but how long does it take to train a knight? twenty years? Thirty years
For William, even if he exchanged ten wooden cannons for one knight, he would probably make a lot of money, but for his enemies, he would lose money no matter what he did.
Boom!
At this moment, there were many cheers of joy in front of them.
It turned out that after being bombarded by trebuchets and wooden cannons, and hit by a huge ram from a siege vehicle, the gate of Lionheart City was finally overwhelmed and collapsed.
Facing this golden opportunity, the Blue Dragon coalition showed good discipline. Under the scolding of the generals of each team, no one rushed forward.
But when the news of the geotechnical force came, Wu Ming ordered without thinking:
"ignition!"
A line of fire was ignited and spread below the city wall.
Boom!
Immediately afterwards, a huge explosion sounded, and black smoke rose into the sky, vaguely forming the appearance of a mushroom cloud.
The whole section of the city wall collapsed, and all the soldiers on it were buried alive. The scene was horrible.
"Okay, charge!"
Wu Ming immediately issued an order.
For the city defenders, the sense of security brought by the tall city walls is the last confidence. Once the city is broken, the blow will be unparalleled, and some defenders will even collapse directly.
And one gap may still be blocked, but two gaps are flanking, even the Duke of Wellington does not hold this hope.
"After entering the city, arrest all the members of the Wellington family inside, and don't let any one go!"
"Military law team, patrol all the streets, and strictly prohibit our soldiers from committing robbery and other unethical behaviors!"
"Move the small wooden cannons into the city to prevent anyone from fighting us in the streets."
…
Each order was promulgated by Wu Ming in an orderly manner.
Garcia stared blankly at this scene. The red lion flag fell in Lionheart City, and a large number of soldiers wearing armor and wielding swords poured into the city, hung the blue giant dragon flag on it, and cheered loudly.
For some reason, his eyes were a little wet, and he almost shed tears.
