Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

It was already the afternoon of the 14th when Lothar followed Patrick to observe the battle.

　　 But it was also the first day that Patrick commanded the Allied forces and officially launched the offensive.

　　 Since arriving in the city on the 12th, Patrick has only done two things related to the siege.

　　 One is to order the troops to step up to build all kinds of siege equipment.

　　 The second is to order the soldiers to work day and night, and finally fill the moat 100 meters outside the city last night.

　　 At this moment, not only the defensive equipment in the city is throwing arrows and projectiles.

　　 Under the southern city wall that the Allied forces mainly attacked, more than fifty torsion trebuchets also fought back unwillingly. Or three or four kilograms of stone bullets hit the city wall one after another, taking away pieces of broken bricks; or the lit wooden oil drum was thrown into the city, causing a large fire.

　　 The ten key parts of the cast iron counterweight catapult truly achieved a striking distance of about 500 meters.

　　 Dozens of kilograms of smoothly polished stone bullets came to the target with a menacing aura, and the sturdy arrow tower could not withstand this attack, and collapsed suddenly in the cracks that emerged one after another.

　　 However, although the momentum is fierce, the progress of the siege is quite ugly.

　　 From nine o'clock in the morning to one noon, the allied ladder only advanced to the farthest 50 meters below the city, and did not even hit the top of the city once. Patrick called back because of the enemy's "violent" counterattack.

　　 Then the climbing ladder made with great difficulty was destroyed in the area between 500 meters and 50 meters.

　　 As for other siege equipment, because there is no ladder to contain the defenders on the city, it hasn't moved a step yet.

　　 In other words, during the five-hour offensive, the most valuable task for the Allied forces was to burn their own siege equipment so that it would not hinder the subsequent offensive route.

　　 The progress was so unsatisfactory that the defenders on the city had already walked out of the tension of the counter-ambubble troops who had gone out of the city.

　　 If it weren't for the trebuchet's "Kang K K K K K" greetings, there would be people who would shoot arrows while laughing and laughing.

　　 And this is also the reason why Patrick finally agreed to Lothar to watch the battle close, and personally explain the reason for the combat strategy to him.

　　 Yes, even as the lord, Lothar had no idea how he would attack the city before Patrick explained it.

　　 The difficulty of attacking Qatar City is indeed very high. In the war room and unable to come up with a more feasible plan, Patrick, as the coach, can only command the offense according to his own ideas and make adjustments according to the evolution of the battle.

　　Because these ideas may not be effective, coach Patrick does not need to explain to anyone.

　　 But now that Patrick has said it, it means that he has a good grasp of his plan.

　　 "With the advantage and deterrence of our siege equipment, the infantry will be protected from low-intensity and low-risk attacks, supplemented by elite troops, to launch high-threat attacks intermittently."

　　"On the one hand, the militias of our army are gradually adapted to the battlefield environment and compensated for the losses of our soldiers.

　　 On the other hand, they constantly put pressure on the defending sergeants, consuming their energy and fighting will a little bit.

After 　　, before the opponent's combat effectiveness completely drops to a trough, focus on the'our army's elite' to form a breakthrough on the city wall, and completely tear the opponent's defense. "

　　"In addition, with the withdrawal of the Principality’s navy, the port will inevitably gradually become a little more active from the dead.

　　In this way, we can communicate with the intelligence personnel in the city, infiltrate small groups of troops little by little, and respond when the general offensive is launched to prevent the enemy's leaders from absconding.

　　 To put it another way, the time when the leader of the enemy flees is the last time we launch a total offensive. "

　　 Obviously, this is a variant of the "tired soldier tactic", a choice for fighting the opponent's strength.

　　 The key is not an ordinary offensive of a harassing nature, but a key assault accidentally launched, whether it can put the pressure on the defenders.

　　 This is the same purpose as Lothar's continuous wave of attacks when he attacked Nuremberg.

　　 Only this time, limited by the lack of available forces, it was impossible to give the opponent high pressure from beginning to end.

　　 In terms of data, when attacking Nuremberg, the defensive army lost 0.2 or 0.3 of combat power, and the Lothar offensive forces at that time would only lose 0.1 or even 0.05 of combat power.

　　 When attacking Qatar City, every time the defending army's combat power drops by 0.1, the Allied army also has to drop by 0.1.

　　 And because of the decrease in combat intensity, the rate of decrease of the combat power of 0.1 will be very slow, and because both sides will be baptized on the battlefield, the combat effectiveness of soldiers may increase a little during this period.

　　 But even so, it is an acceptable result for the Allies.

　　 Because in the current Allied forces, the number of soldiers capable of fighting is close to 8,000, and there are more than 4,000 with regular combat literacy, far exceeding the number of reliable soldiers in the defenders.

　　 After more than half of the defensive energy has been consumed, it is still possible to achieve a frontal breakthrough to the city wall.

　　 For this, Lothar felt that it would be okay to stay in the city for ten and a half days.

　　 Of course, the premise is that during this period of time, the morale of the Allied soldiers will not collapse due to continuous attacks.

　　 And this, again depends on the combat results of the assault troops.

　　Only to prove to the soldiers that the offensive is indeed effective and that breaking the city is indeed achievable, can they maintain a certain degree of fighting will.

　　 At this point, Lothar, Patrick and others are still very confident.

　　……

　　 The coach's battle plan has been set, and the battle will soon proceed according to his ideas.

　　 On the afternoon of the 14th, as the defenders' fortifications became exhausted after nearly a day of operation, the Allied forces finally put the ladder on the top of the city and then boarded the city wall.

　　 Although this attacking force quickly retreated under Patrick's order.

　　 But the ladder that has reached the city is not so easy to be destroyed by the enemy.

　　 Fighting such a big city~www.readwn.com~The ladder built by the Allies is heavier and stronger than that of Nuremberg.

　　 The second section of the long ladder directly used wooden boards more than ten centimeters thick with steps.

　　 The rolling logs and stones thrown by the defenders are good for blocking the allies from climbing the city, but it takes a lot of work to destroy the entire ladder.

　　As we all know, oil and water are incompatible.

　　 The kerosene used in the current era is not oil, and it burns not so quickly. It is not so easy to burn the ladder wrapped in wet linen.

The time required during 　　 was enough for offensive soldiers to respond.

　　 Of course, this approach will obviously accelerate the rate of decay of the wooden ladder.

　　 But if the ladder can really stay in the city until it decays, it doesn't seem to be a pity.

　　 With "the ladder going up", the Allied attacks unfolded one after another.

　　 At around 5 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, taking advantage of the chance of the defenders being paralyzed by the previous attacks, the assault force led by Fieldsway’s guards successfully boarded the city and killed nearly a hundred people before retreating.

　　 In the Allied offensives in the next few days, such scenes appeared repeatedly. Sometimes several assault troops launched an attack within an hour, and sometimes they could not climb the city wall once in most of the day.

　　 Although the overall casualties were less than one-tenth of the number of defenders.

　　 But undoubtedly, it is indeed the achievement of Patrick's combat goal of draining the enemy's energy.
