Chapter 718 Crisis
"As the last shield wall of the Principality of Lombardy to prevent the enemy from advancing, you must not have the slightest fear when facing the enemy. If fear makes you retreat step by step, then they will take away your land, rape and kill your wives and daughters, burn your houses, destroy your homes, and enslave your relatives. After listening to Terman's impassioned encouragement, these Lombard soldiers who were still retreating just a moment ago He stopped, the fear in his eyes gradually disappeared, and the flames of anger ignited in his chest. He stared at the Burundi soldiers who were still approaching step by step.
Terman walked to the wall and looked at the Burundi soldiers who were still swarming up the wall. He immediately ordered, "Cut all the ropes on the logs and throw down all the heretics!"
"Cut the ropes and scatter the logs!"
ttleman's military order passed several times and finally reached the soldiers hiding in the holes in the city wall behind the logs. Almost at the same time,
The soldier in charge of cutting the ropes drew out his long sword and cut off the hemp ropes that fixed the logs. All the logs hanging in mid-air broke away from the city wall in the blink of an eye and smashed directly towards the ladder on the wall. "Be careful with the left wing!"
At the edge of the trench, Art, who was paying close attention to all the movements on the city wall, shouted.
The helpless fighting roars of both warring parties shrouded the entire sky above Sauron Castle, and the soldiers who were climbing up the ladder could not hear them at all.
In the dark corners on both sides of the city wall, relying on its own weight and huge inertia, the hemp ropes tied to the logs swept along the wall at the moment they were detached, breaking all the dozens of ladders erected on the city wall in one fell swoop, causing the unsuspecting Welsh Legion soldiers to fall from mid-air to the ground, suffering heavy casualties.
The wooden bridge built between the climbing tower and the crenellated wall also fell from high altitude, cutting off the connection between the climbing tower and the city wall.
"Bob, take the men from the Radiation Department and send all the remaining ladders to me immediately. Inform the medical soldiers and treat the wounded immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
Bob immediately ran towards the rear camp, and soon he led hundreds of Radiation Soldiers and laborers from the Radiation Department and rushed to the bottom of the city wall carrying the ladders.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Art immediately crossed the trench with the guards behind him and ran towards the east wall of the city wall. When the soldiers who were reinforcing one after another were suddenly attacked, the three companies and more than 100 men who had attacked the city wall were instantly passive. Under the personal command of Terman, the Lombards gradually compressed the activity space of these more than a hundred elite soldiers from the north and south directions.
In addition, in addition to the more than ten soldiers around him, Terman mobilized 60 elite soldiers and led more than 300 young and strong peasant soldiers to surround the Wells Legion's soldiers with shields and constantly harass the opponent with spears and arrows.
Soon, the soldiers on the outside began to fall one by one, killed by swords that suddenly stretched out from behind their shields, or by flying arrows."
At the critical moment, Colin said to Klaus, the captain of the heavy armored infantry company behind him: "Klaus, we are divided into two groups. You take part of the people to attack to the south, and Weitz and I take the remaining troops to attack to the north. We must not let them eat us. We must hold on, reinforcements should be arriving soon." "Okay! Let us reiterate that the men of the infantry company rush to the front, and your people follow behind. Once our people break through a hole, you immediately hit eight" "Okay!" Colin then shouted loudly: "Guys, hold on, our people are coming soon, kill me!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Suddenly, the soldiers of the heavy armored infantry company headed by Klaus quickly moved to the outside and began to counterattack with their heavy armor and powerful combat power. The heavy armored infantry picked up the fine iron heavy swords in their hands and chopped off the heads of the Lombard soldiers in front of them, causing sparks to fly; the thrown axes and hammer chains drew arcs and smashed the Lombards' noses and faces.
For a time, the news of mourning continued from the direction of the Sauronborg garrison. Seeing that the Burgundian soldiers began to attack in an organized manner, and his own troops were obviously outnumbered, Terman was at a loss for the moment.
At this time, the flames over the camp of Burgundy's army ten miles outside the north gate were soaring, lighting up the entire night sky. Soldiers on both sides of the war were attracted by the sudden light and looked north.
"Lord Count, look!" the soldiers beside Terman said in surprise as he pointed to the place in the north where thick smoke was billowing.
Terman turned around, slowly turned and glanced towards the north. A group of explosive flames was reflected in his eyes, beating constantly in his two eyeballs.
慢慢地，特耳曼嘴角上扬，片刻前严肃的神情缓缓突然消失，取而代之的则是不停地狂笑～
「哈哈哈！哈哈哈！」
此时，所有人的注意力都被特耳曼的这一举动所吸引，并不清楚这到底意味着什么。
After taking a deep breath, Terman turned around and said to the Lombard soldiers: "As you can see, our cavalry has burned all the food and grass in the rear camp of the Burgundians. Without food and grass, what will they do to fight with us?"
Terman gritted his teeth, suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist, and shouted, "Kill these bastards!"
"Kill!"
When hearing this exciting news, the Lombards began to rush desperately towards the surrounded soldiers of the Welsh Army, raising their hands to slash at the heavy armored infantry outside~
Ignoring the billowing smoke and the fire that was still burning fiercely in the camp dozens of miles away behind me, when the ladder was set up again, the company's deputy commander Bangeda took the lead and was the first to rush up~
The other soldiers followed closely, roaring and followed.
When Bangeda climbed halfway, an arrow suddenly flew from above his head and flew straight towards his head. Soon enough, he turned sideways to avoid the arrows and looked up at the Lombard archer on the wall who was shooting arrows. He immediately grabbed the short spear from the soldier below him, grabbed his arm and threw it out. Unexpectedly, the opponent had quick eyesight and quick hands. He turned around and hid behind the crenellated wall. The short spear flew over the crenellated opening towards the city wall on the other side, and stuck straight into the mud on the outside of the stone staircase leading to the city wall.
The moment the short spear fell to the inside of the city wall, Ron had already led people to the entrance of the stone stairs leading to the west city wall. The moment he raised his feet, a short spear flew from the other side of the city wall, whizzed past him, and stuck straight into his right side a step away.
"What a risk~ These bastards almost killed me. Let's see how I deal with you later!"
Ron wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, stood up slowly, and whispered to the soldiers behind him. "Everyone please remember to me that we are Lombard soldiers now. We will look at my eyes when we board the city, and we must not act without authorization." The guys from the Grenadier Company followed me and took my gesture as my command! After lighting the bomb, they immediately threw it among the Lombards and gave them a centerpiece." "Don't worry, Sir Ron!" After speaking, Rogge glanced at the four bombs with shortened fuses in the sack in his arms, feeling a little excited.
"After the two mines explode, the rest of you, rush up to me and kill those bastards! Follow me!" After that, Ron walked to the stairs and trotted all the way up to the city wall~
On the west wall, looking at the enemy reinforcements attacking again, Terman He ordered the soldiers around him, "Quickly, ask them to smash through all the shooting holes reserved on the city wall to prevent the enemy's reinforcements from entering the city!" When the soldiers of the Wells Legion were still climbing up the ladder, dozens of holes of various sizes suddenly appeared on the wall.
intCE～》
A soldier from the first company was the first to notice the situation. When he stepped forward to take a closer look, a sharp spear came out instantly and plunged directly into the soldier's eye socket - "Ah!"
After a scream came, the soldier rolled down the ladder and died on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, spears were thrust out of the hole one after another while the soldiers on the way were unprepared. More than ten elite soldiers were unprepared and fell to the corner of the wall one after another.
"Be careful of the holes in the city wall, there is someone inside~" Bangeda, the deputy commander of the company, had just shouted out when a spear was already stabbing him.
Bangada held on to the handrail of the ladder and dodged sideways. When the spear stabbed him again, Bangada raised his sword and cut off the spear head, and then climbed up quickly. Just two steps up, a light arrow shot out from the hole on the left side and hit his left shoulder. The wound was not deep at all, so regardless of the pain, Bangeda pulled out the arrow and rushed to the city wall again. Seeing that the climb to the city was blocked again, Art was already worried.
At this time, more than a hundred elite soldiers of the Welsh Legion on the city wall were beaten back again by the Lombards who kept rushing up. As the heavy armored infantry on the periphery gradually became exhausted, the balance of victory began to tilt towards the defenders of Sauronburg. "Kill these bastards!"
When roars came from the attacking Lombards, it completely ignited the fighting spirit of this group of Lombard soldiers.
「Kill!」
When the Lombards brandished their swords and thrust them into the necks of the heavy armored infantry in front of them, blood spurted out. The moment the heavy armored infantry fell to the ground, the gap that appeared rapidly expanded.
Immediately afterwards, one soldier after another continued to fall to the ground, and the Lombards began to massacre"
But the more than a hundred elite soldiers who had attacked the city wall were in crisis...
