"There are many casualties in the attack on the vanguard."

Not far from the trenches outside the city, Valous, who was encamped and commanded the battle, saw the momentum of the offensive being interrupted by the sudden drop of a rolling log, and couldn't help but want to persuade the true commander of this army, His Royal Highness Nicholas.

But Nicholas turned a deaf ear, watching the soldiers pay a lot of casualties without waiting to get close to the castle. The heavy armored vanguard in charge of the forward was hit by a rolling log, and the people who climbed the ladder behind were under the arrow rain of the defenders at the front of the city. , Unobstructed. In Valus's view, the offense in the dark is completely unclear where the weak point of defense is. He hopes to temporarily stop the offense and fight again tomorrow.

But Nicholas categorically refused: "We have seized the opportunity, and what we want now is to tell everyone whether we will advance or retreat in this battle. If we win this battle, we will be able to secure the victory." We should not allow the deputy commander who is much older than himself. To rebut, Nicholas gave a cruel order. He stared at the wall of the pebble fort in the dark and made up his mind that he must use the victory of this war to prove himself to his father, Emperor Mikhail.

After receiving the order, the Epirus army approached the Pebble Fort wall step by step, and since it was unable to attack from the front, it divided into two directions. On the left and right sides of the city wall, the two companies were led by their commanders to launch another tentative attack. This time they learned a lesson. The heavy armored soldiers wore three layers of iron armor and held a shield as the first ascent. There are also a number of archers behind to cover.

In the dark, General Terendez could not see the enemy’s movements, but he placed very alert guards everywhere, so he predicted the enemy’s next move for the first time, under his command. , Pebble Fort’s defenders also reacted immediately.

Fortunately, this Niu Lu Zhangjing has been fighting for a long time. So I can bear it, I just hope to take the city sooner. To end everything in front of me.

"The east side and the west side are ready to take out the halberds to fight!"

Soon, every soldier on the surrounding city wall was assigned a halberd. Although this weapon was shorter than a spear, it was more suitable for use in the cramped and narrow place of the tower, especially against the warriors of the first ascend.

The bows and arrows under the city were shot at the city head one after another, and those who had good things stretched their heads to check the time and were shot. The Pebble Castle defenders could only temporarily slow down the deployment of rolling logs and stones and chose to array them on the side of the wall.

Listening to the voice of the city, the sergeants pursed their mouths tightly, and their chests rose and fell anxiously. Just watched nervously at the movement on the side of the ladder.

Finally, near the left side of the city wall, an Epirus soldier holding a long shield and a broad-blade knife in the other hand appeared on the entrance of the ladder. There is no doubt that his figure is bigger than the average soldier, and his body is up and down. In the heavy garb, there are two layers of chain mail for protection, and only two eyes are exposed from the top and bottom of the body.

As soon as he appeared at the top of the city and didn't look inside, he shielded himself in front of him to prevent the defenders in the city from being killed by a knife. He suddenly jumped down from the city and charged with incomparable momentum. come.

But what greeted him was not the old, weak, sick and disabled who had originally expected to panic, but the determined rock formation under the command of Terendez.

"Royal!"

Several soldiers had already levelled their halberds and were ready to go, and immediately resisted the shield that Epirus had smashed into. The other soldiers also slammed their halberds down and hit the opponent hard. His arm is like a chisel. The warrior of Epirus who suffered severe pain subconsciously dropped his shield. Even though he was protected by three layers of armor, no matter whether it was a zappa or a chain mail, it was only resistant to swords and hacks, but the halberd’s piercing cone was similar. An iron chisel generally cuts the bone through the heart.

Inadvertently, another well-coordinated pebble fort soldier hooked him with a halberd, and soon several more halberds stabbed on the body of Epirus Xianden. But after all, the armor of this Xian Deng body was so good that he couldn't wear it for a while. The samurai of Epirus, who reluctantly supported life and death, knew that life and death were only a matter of thought. The key Dmitry rushed out at this time, shouting:

"Prick their weakness!"

Speaking of holding a long spear into the unprotected eyes of the Epirus warrior, he was about to kill him immediately.

"We must not let them succeed in the city, everyone will follow me to defend the enemy together!"

With a shout, the defenders of the city became more motivated, and then two Epirus heavy armors appeared at the city head first. This time the Pebble Fort soldiers did the same, but at this time there was a warning sound behind them.

"Be careful, step back!"

It turned out that several Epirus crossbowmen followed immediately after the heavy armor first ascended. They boarded the tower under the cover of the forward and fired crossbows against the unprotected halberdmen.

At this time, a Pebble Fort defender suddenly rushed up from one side. He was hesitant to be fat. He could only carry the rolling logs and rocks. Seeing that his companion was in danger, the defender didn't hesitate to hit him with his body, and said Unreliable and accurate, even though Epirus Xianden pierced his chest with the long sword in his hand, he still sturdy and smashed the opponent.

With a few screams, the first ascending warrior and those bowmen and crossbowmen fell down the tower together with the body of the fat garrison.

"Fatty!"

But it was too late to be sad. The defenders of Pebble Fort found that a total of more than a dozen enemy troops had jumped off the wall at this time. If they were allowed to open the situation, there would be constant enemies behind them who would climb and jump off the ladder.

"Block them!" The defenders of the same enemy picked up the halberds and stabbed them. For a while, the people of Epirus were in a hurry. They were wearing heavy armor and were very inconvenient to move.

Taking this opportunity, Terendez shouted: "Prepare kerosene!"

Do you use kerosene now? Dmitri, who was fighting ahead, was shocked. This was their last resort to press the bottom of the box, and the old general was actually ready to use it from the beginning. Before he could think about it, Dmitry commanded his companions and fought and retreated. More and more places on the wall were breached, and more Epirus climbed up, but they did not realize that this was the Pebble Fort defender. Deliberately.

"Kill! His Royal Highness Nicholas ordered the first person to win the Pebble Fort to be rewarded!"

The motivated Epirus soldiers were completely blushing~www.ltnovel.com~ In their opinion, they had a chance to win. Stepping on the lying corpses, the Epirus people kept approaching. The Pebble Fort defenders are also slowly retreating, and as the enemy continues to climb up, their casualties are increasing, but this army has not been crushed, but continued to shrink to the predetermined position.

Finally, when the Epirus army huddled together to board the tower was almost nowhere to stand, they suddenly realized that no matter what, they couldn't make any further progress. At this time, the first ascending warriors in front of them showed fearful eyes. They had no time to give an early warning, and the black siphon aimed at them sprayed thick black tar, followed by the torch that had been prepared at General Terendez’s. Threw it out in the sound of commands.

The extreme scorching smell permeated with the cruel screams, a fire dragon danced on the top of the pebble fort in the dark, and the Epirus soldiers who were unprepared to advance and retreat immediately screamed, either being swallowed by the tongue of fire, or they had to choose He jumped off the top of the city and only heard howlings that did not sound like human voices filling the sky.
