At this time, it was time to rush into the city as quickly as possible, and before the 3,000 South City Gate defenders reacted, they were all blocked in the barracks.
Surround and kill them!
The 3,000 garrison troops at the south gate of Lionheart City are all elite private troops of the Earl Simon Pulan's family, the top aristocrat in the South County of the Lion Principality.
Of course, the most elite is out of the question, and that part is in the castle of Earl Simon Pulain.
The 3,000 Lionheart City south gate garrison, 1,000 infantry, 1,000 archers, and 1,000 heavy cavalry.
In the barracks on each side of the south gate, there are 500 soldiers from each of the three types of troops.
In fact, eleven years ago, when Earl Simon Pulan and three other top nobles from the Southern County joined forces to snatch the next part of the control of Lionheart City from the Duke of Lion Cameron, the three thousand soldiers sent Can be regarded as the name of the elite.
However, today, eleven years later.
This name is already a misnomer.
Bustling and intoxicating.
What's more, it is the most prosperous Lion Heart City in the entire Lion Principality.
Among the four gates of Lion Heart City, they are helping to guard the South Gate of Lion Heart City, which is the most lucrative.
For eleven years, there was no war.
Dealing with some caravans, hooligans, hooligans, and poor people all day long, most of the soldiers are regular customers of various taverns in the southern area of Lionheart City, and spent many nights in those hotels.
They are the local snakes in the southern area of Lionheart City.
Life is nourishing.
After eleven years of such a nourishing life, apart from the fact that the number of the legion has not changed, where can I find the elite aura of the past.
Logically speaking, there should be 3,000 soldiers stationed in the barracks at this time.
However, in reality, there are no more than 2,450 people.
The poorest ones are the commanders.
They either spend the night with the ladies in the aristocratic district of the East District, or they get drunk in the taverns of the South District, or they enjoy the gentleness of poor girls in small hotels.
For Earl Simon Pullan, this army is not very important.
Just exist.
This will ensure that he continues to occupy the interest quota of Lion Heart City.
Anyway, his lair is not Lionheart City.
Lionheart City is just a place where he earns golden eagles and big silver coins.
As long as this garrison can collect enough wealth for him every month, does he care if they fall or not? He does not rely on this army to guard his castle and manor.
Therefore, when Bestur besieged the two barracks with all his troops.
Not only are the soldiers in these two barracks only in their early 1200s, but they are also chaotic and disorganized.
After all, most of the commanders were missing, and he was awakened from a sweet sleep.
Ten years of comfort and enjoyment had made them somewhat forget how to deal with such a terrible mutation calmly.
From time to time, disheveled soldiers ran out of the well-organized soldier barracks.
Some soldiers were so frightened that they became incontinent when they saw the terrifying army surrounded by thousands of torches.
Really, the bows and arrows of those archers shone coldly under the firelight, it was too scary.
Many soldiers desperately hid in the barracks again and became ostriches.
Self-comfort may be able to escape in this way.
Maybe he can become a captive. Although his fate is miserable, he is still alive.
However, they are all naive.
Bestur didn't intend to keep the prisoners at all.
Of course, it's not that Bestur is particularly cruel and cold. Of course, it's not a big problem if you have to say that.
It was because he brought too few soldiers.
Yes, there are too few soldiers.
Although they were all elite soldiers, there were only more than 3,000 soldiers present.
Bestur's strategic goal this time is to win the entire Lion Heart City.
After taking down the South City Gate, there are three other city gates.
Even if all four city gates are taken down, there are still noble districts, as well as the Mage Association and the Temple of War.
How can there be extra troops to take care of the prisoners.
"It's even worse than what I've detected!"
"It seems that we don't need to use fire attack!"
"Although these guys are useless, their barracks are still good, and they can be left for our soldiers to stay."
Seeing such a situation, Bestur felt concerned.
Bestur said a little excitedly:
"Sergeant Rhodok, maintain an encirclement posture and slowly advance, shrinking the encirclement!"
"Bowmen, shoot freely! Anyone who dares to show their heads, let them go to hell!"
"Swadian Royal Knights, guard the main road in the city, and kill anyone who wants to cross the line!"
"Sarion Lion Knight, guard the city gate, if there is a navy that flees, kill them all!"
Afterwards, Bestur lowered his voice and said, "There is no need to keep alive! We don't need prisoners!"
This sound was only heard by his own troops, but no one heard the soldiers of the barracks at the south gate of Lionheart City, which was in a mess.
The way Bestur and Fatis give orders is obviously different. His orders carry extremely strong personal emotions, and his words are not too elegant.
Bestur didn't care about such details, he still needed to ensure that his orders could be understood by his soldiers and executed correctly.
He was too lazy to issue orders and needed to think about concise and smooth wording.
Those things cannot guarantee the victory of the war.
The defenders of the south wall of Lionheart City paid a heavy price for their depravity.
They ran around in the barracks in a chaotic manner. Even Virgil's sharp archers didn't need to shoot salvos to waste arrows. Instead, they fired in bursts like the Rhodoks sniper shooters and Ravenston rangers.
Occasionally, a small group of soldiers, wearing neat armor and wearing a round shield, tried to break out of the encirclement formed by the Rhodoks.
But the siege crossbows of the Rhodoks sniper shooters taught them to be ghosts every minute.
A round shield inlaid with iron, at a distance of tens of meters, the siege crossbow in the hands of a Rhodok sniper shooter can shoot through 5 pieces with one arrow.
Those who broke through several times all ended up dead.
The soldiers in the barracks at the male city gate of Lionheart City fell into despair.
It also completely defeated their courage.
No one dared to come out of the barracks at will.
Because they discovered that people in the same barracks, as long as they show their heads at the door of the barracks, they will immediately be pierced by an arrow and die.
It's terrible and a little too much.
The smell of blood permeated the entire barracks.
Some garrison soldiers cried out in despair, but they still couldn't escape death.
The Rhodoks were already pressing to the gate of the barracks.
On both sides of the south gate of Lionheart City, the two barracks each have five rows of barracks, and each row of barracks has fifteen barracks.
Usually, twenty soldiers live in each barracks.
