With a sound of "click", the gun shaft inserted on the city wall suddenly broke, and the cavalryman who was climbing up only let out a short scream before falling firmly on the solid snow ground below, and fell unconscious on the spot past. He was only two steps away from climbing the city wall, and fell from a height of more than seven meters. It is normal for him to faint.
"This is the forty-seventh one that fell..." Dolles shook his head and smiled wryly. The plan is the plan, and no one would have thought that there would be an accident where the city gate could not be opened. In the original idea, after capturing the city wall and opening the city gate, the Flying Tiger Legion immediately launched an attack on the Vicia Chamber of Commerce Legion in the West District, annihilated or forced to land on the enemy's main force, and then Federico Wangcheng fell into the control of the Norton family's armed forces like a ripe fruit.
But who would have thought that the Vicia Chamber of Commerce would cast such two large iron gates, blocking the way for the Flying Tiger Legion to enter the city. Lorist and others seized the city wall and entered the city and became a lone army. Instead, they were besieged by the Vicia Chamber of Commerce Legion. When they heard the order from the city wall saying that the city gates could not be opened and that the Flying Tigers had to find another way to enter the city, Tiger Ross, Dolles, and Malek who came after him scolded their mother...
Because they were planning to enter the city through the city gate, no one prepared any other tools for climbing the city. There are three rope ladders hanging on the city wall. But the problem is that this rope ladder was brought over by the guard battalion. Lorist brought two thousand guards this time, and only about a thousand have climbed up to now. Next, no one can get the guards to give up the rope ladder.
Tiger the Tiger can't do anything about it, and he can't do anything without the tools to climb the city wall. Originally, I wanted to hang a few long ropes down for the soldiers to step on the city wall to climb up, but I didn’t expect that in winter, the water vapor on the city wall formed a thin layer of ice, cold and smooth, and it was impossible to climb nine meters with only a rope. High walls. In the end, the three of them discussed, and Malek arranged for soldiers to collect all the ropes on the sleigh carts to weave rope ladders. The guns were inserted on the city wall to build a ladder to go up the city and let the soldiers reinforce it first. It is said that the Vicia Chamber of Commerce Legion has attacked, and now it is possible to get a good one.
It's a pity that the gun barrels that were forcibly inserted on the city wall by the silver masters with their grudges were a little too strong. A Lancer, including his men and equipment, weighed at least a hundred kilograms. The gun barrel with a thick cup mouth can hold on at the beginning, but after more than 20 people are on it, it can't bear the strength and is easy to break. Five or six hundred Lancers went up, but there were more than forty people who fell to the city because the barrel of the gun broke...
The most irritating thing is that the people below are still trying to get more soldiers to go to the city for reinforcements, but what is the cry from the city... It turned out to be asking the sword and shield soldiers of the Panshi Legion to go first, and the longbow soldiers to go first, and let the soldiers go up first. Lancers, don't come up and wait...
Tiger Ross got angry, what the hell are you doing, let the Rock Legion go first, so what face does our Flying Tiger Legion have, and he climbed up to the city without saying a word. And the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Legion under the city didn't care what was shouted from above, those who had to climb were still climbing, and those who had to fall were still going to fall...
"How many steel crossbows have we sent up?" Dolles asked.
"My lord, the thirty-seven steel crossbows that have just been dismantled from the sleigh cart have been pulled up by hanging on the rope, and they are still being dismantled under the city wall..." There was a folder beside him, trembling, writing something in charcoal Said the Legion Clerk.
"Well, let the archer team that has already gone to the city immediately place the steel crossbow on the top of the city to help His Highness repel the enemy's attack first." Dolles said.
"Yes, but my lord, all the crossbows we sent to the city wall were steel crossbows. The crossbow bolts were not sent to the bottom of the city wall. Now there are steel crossbows but no crossbow bolts on the city wall..." the clerk replied.
Alas, it's terrible, this messy situation is really a headache, the current situation is completely unexpected, and it's hard to find a clue. As far as the eye can see, there are all human heads outside the north city wall, black crows can't see the edge, but every time there are only a dozen or twenty soldiers who climb the city wall, the speed of reinforcements from the upper city is too slow.
"Give me an order," Dolles ordered: "The waiting troops separate out a path, let the sleigh carts looking for crossbow arrows reach the city wall first, and ensure the supply and support of the crossbow arrows. First load those on the sleds on the other side of the city wall." The twenty crossbow arrows on the car were collected and sent to the city wall, so that the steel crossbows that had already been sent to the city could be used first. In addition, the twelfth battalion of the legion was sent to cut down trees and build ladders. Now the speed of going to the city is really fast. too slow… "
Before the words fell, another gun barrel broke on the edge of the city wall, and the climbing soldier fell down with screams.
"By the way, I remember that the arrow shafts of the steel crossbow are all made of iron. You, go and get a bundle, and let the climbers in front use the arrows as a ladder. It should be stronger than the shaft of the gun." Dole Si casually grabbed a guard soldier around him to find the crossbow and return.
Malek returned with a wry smile: "The ropes tied to the sleigh cart are not too long, and I suspect that the rope ladders weaving together in this way are not very reliable. Moreover, it takes at least two hours to weave a rope ladder more than nine meters long, too slow."
"My lord, we might as well pile up a snow slope to go up to the city. After all, there are so many people waiting below the city. Each person can get a big snow brick to pile up to the top of the city. Moreover, there is snow everywhere, so making snow bricks is very fast." ..." said the clerk next to him.
"That's a good idea." Malek said, "700,000 to 80,000 people are waiting at the base of the city, it's better to let them all go to get snow bricks, one person can get a piece and pile it up to the top of the city, and then make a hole in the moat, and make a snow brick. pour some water on it, take the planks off the sleigh and put them up as steps, and it will be done in less than an hour. . . ”
There was a burst of screams from the city wall. Dolles and Malek looked up and were shocked, but saw sword lights on the city wall and screams again and again.
"Not good, why did the enemy attack the city? I'll go up to see first, Dolles, organize your people to build a snow slope right away..." Malek ran towards the city wall.
…
"It's over..." Jost could only hold the green longbow in front of his chest, but he no longer had any hope of blocking the sword light from the great sword master.
The great sword master who flew over had a ferocious smile on his face, as long as he killed this golden archer who could cause big troubles, then he would have no difficulty in killing hundreds of enemies on the city wall and taking back the city wall...
A long spear with a golden sword glow slanted towards the right rib of the great swordsman. If the great swordsman insisted on killing Jost, he himself would be severely injured by the long spear. The great swordsman had no choice but to withdraw his sword to defend, and cut the tip of the flying spear in half with a "Zheng".
Jost narrowly escaped from death, retreated about ten meters, stretched his bow and shot at the great swordsman. But he saw that Tiger Ross, who had just saved his life, was already fighting fiercely with the great swordsman who rushed to the city, roaring again and again. Although Tiger Ross was at a disadvantage against the Great Swordsman, it was impossible for the Great Swordsman to take him down in a short while, not to mention that Jost had pulled away the distance, and the green long man who was aiming at the Great Swordsman The bow made him very afraid, and he had to reserve some strength in his hand to prevent Jost from suddenly launching a cold arrow...
Among the current sixteen Golden Knights of the Norton family, Tiger Ross is recognized as the number one in force. Bodfinger, who is best at defensive swordsmanship, once said that if he concentrates on defense, it is no problem to draw with Tiger Ross, but it is unnecessary to think about defeating him. Even Lorist also said that in the next three years, Tiger Ross is the Golden Knight who is most likely to be promoted to a first-level sword master. He is currently at the peak of three gold stars, but he has not yet found the opportunity to be promoted to a great sword master.
The great swordsman of the Vicia Chamber of Commerce Legion should have been promoted for a year or two. Although his sword skills are fast and fierce, they are not yet round enough to use them freely. Tiger Ross saw him rushing towards Jost when he went to the city just now, he quickly grabbed a spear and stabbed him diagonally to save Jost's life, and then he drew his sword and fought fiercely with him. At the beginning of the contact, I suffered a bit, and got two small wounds on my body. But after a long confrontation, he quickly became familiar with the opponent's swordsmanship, and with Jost leading the bow behind him, the great swordsman gradually fell into the disadvantaged.
At this time, the upper city stone ladder on the left has been lost, and the heavy armored spearmen of the Vicia Chamber of Commerce Legion are continuously surging upwards. Fortunately, the city wall on the left was where the cavalrymen went up to the city. Although there was a tower in the middle, five or six hundred Lancers rushed over the tower to rescue them when they saw the guards killed and the stone ladder lost. The section of the city wall in front of the stone ladder was bloody and bloody, and corpses were strewn all over the place. If you want to decide the winner, you can only see that the reinforcements are faster there.
Tiger Ross and the great swordsman from the Vicia Chamber of Commerce were fighting fiercely above the north city gate, more than 20 meters away from the upper city stone ladder on the left. Now the great swordsman was complaining in his heart, he rushed to the city wall just to kill Jost and eliminate the threat of the sharp archer to himself. Unexpectedly, the tiger Ross killed on the way, not only saved the life of the sharp archer, but also fought on par with him. But the archer opened the distance, bent his bow and pointed his arrow at him, making his sword skills unable to be used, forced by a golden knight to parry and defend, and wanted to wait until the reinforcements of the heavy armored spearmen came back. I don't know when to wait...
Finally repelling the charge of the heavily armored spearmen, Lorist had already turned into a man of blood, leaning against the dilapidated barricade, gasping for breath. The fifth heavy armored spearman brigade of the attacking Vicia chamber of commerce retreated less than two hundred lucky people who lost their souls, and more than 800 heavy armored spearmen turned into blood mud and corpses on the ground . Although Lorist was unscathed, it took a lot of effort. Of the more than two hundred family guards, only fifty or so are still standing. arm.
The Vicia Chamber of Commerce has a staff of 45,000 people, divided into four corps and a logistics garrison of 5,000 people. After receiving the alarm of the enemy attack, a regiment of heavily armored spears was sent to recapture the North City Gate. Lorist estimated that they also sent two other corps to the east and west gates. After all, Reddy, El, and Hughes Great Swordsman attacked the towers from the east and west on the city wall. Before finding out the details of the attacking enemy, the Vicia Chamber of Commerce had to be cautious. Then they should still leave a corps and a logistics garrison battalion in Xicheng District as a reserve team.
Blame that damn big iron gate! Lorist smiled wryly, it's really frustrating that such a good raid turned into such a result. The enemy sent a heavily armored spear corps to recover the north city gate and the city wall. Except for the four brigades attacking the left and right stone staircases of the upper city, I was facing six brigades. Although the Fifth Heavy Armored Spearman Brigade was defeated, there were still five brigades with 5,000 enemies. If it weren't for the limitation of the street area that forced the enemy to deploy their troops and could only come up one by one, then my own troops would have been wiped out long ago...
The horn sounded, and the enemy in the distance changed a brigade and organized three hundred-man formations to attack again. It seemed that they didn't want to leave time for their side to rest. There is no other way, there are only fifty or so guards who can still fight, and most of them are still slightly injured. The seriously injured guards will be moved to the edge of the city gate. The most terrible thing is the three iron bolts on the two large iron doors. The bottom one can be twitched after being baked for half an hour, the middle one can be knocked but cannot be pulled out, and the top one The iron door bolt didn't move at all, probably it wasn't scorched by the fire, it was really a dead end.
Lorist could still guarantee that he could evacuate safely, but what should the guards who followed him do, were they just abandoned? For a moment, Lorist had mixed feelings in his heart, not knowing how to make a decision.
The defeat of the Fifth Heavy Armored Spearman Battalion has allowed the Vicia Chamber of Commerce to confirm the identity and ability of Lorist Great Swordsman. The formation of the three hundred-man battle formations that launched the attack again was tighter, their attitudes were more cautious, and their steps were more consistent. Behind them, there are the same seven hundred-man formation, they are slowly approaching step by step...
Malek turned over the city wall, and he understood the situation at a glance, but instead of rushing to help the tiger Ross and Jost, he drew his sword and rushed towards the heavy armored spear rising from the stone staircase on the left soldier. With his joining, the defending Lancers were even more powerful, and quickly killed more than a hundred enemies who rushed up the city wall, and then guarded the stone stairs on the city wall.
Only then did Malek walk towards the fierce tiger Ross and the great swordsman from the Vicia Chamber of Commerce in a fierce battle, the long sword in his hand was flickering with golden light. The great swordsman panicked. This is equivalent to three golden knights besieging him. Not to mention that the golden knight who is fighting with him is superb in swordsmanship and can fight himself to a tie. The sharp archer is the greatest threat to himself. Now there is another golden knight, if I don't leave, I won't be able to leave...
The long sword in the hands of the Great Sword Master and Tiger Rose's epee flashing with a golden sword slammed into each other fiercely, moving sideways. Sure enough, as soon as his whole body was exposed, he heard a "hum" sound, and the three-point cold star was in front of his eyes. What a great swordsman, leaning forward and backward, in an instant three sharp arrows brushed against his chest.
The great swordsman felt relieved. He had already realized that Jost was holding three long arrows when he drew the bow. It takes just a few moments to retreat from the whole body...
As soon as he stood up, the great sword master froze with a "puchi" sound, and opened his eyes in disbelief at the end of the feathered arrow stuck in his chest: "Why, how is it possible, yes, it is four, four arrows …”
"Fuck, Joe, why did you take the credit for my acquisition!" Tiger Ross said with a sad face.
Jost sat exhausted on the snowy ground at the top of the city. He was also very tired after aiming his bow for so long, and he didn't even have the energy to speak.
With a wave of Malek's long sword, the sword master who was hit by the arrow was severed in two. Then he raised his sword and yelled at the steel crossbow hanging on the left city wall and the soldiers: "Hurry up and move the steel crossbow over here, hurry up!"
