Rise In Calradia

Chapter 335: : Defensive Battle of Dehrim (5)

The people in the city once again left the city at night. This time they put out a large number of torches at the head of the city and slowly lowered the suspension bridge. Move quickly, put all the clods in the basket and transport them to the city, and don't leave them to the Kujites for any purpose. When Kurgit was alert, everyone packed their things and returned to the city, and the suspension bridge quickly rose up, as if nothing had happened.

So when the Kujites were preparing to continue their earth-moving operations early the next morning, they found out angrily that a large piece of the earth bridge they had worked so hard to build had been dug out at this time, and the rest was broken and thrown away. Everywhere. They scolded them angrily, but then plunged into the long and dangerous earthmoving work again. Of course, they did not forget to shoot the bows and arrows shot by the enemy yesterday with their own bows, just as venting their anger.

In this way, the Kujites spent another whole day, leaving hundreds of corpses to repair the earth bridge, and even made the bridge wider. In the evening, the soldiers in the city went out of the city and destroyed them as usual, but this time the Khergits were already prepared. As soon as the suspension bridge fell, the Khergit cavalry launched a charge and shot a large number of arrows, shooting over many who had not yet left the city. Soldiers and workers. The soldiers in the city were taken aback and hurriedly made a volley to stop the opponent from advancing, but in the darkness, it was quite difficult to shoot those Khergit cavalry who had lost their torches. They almost let those guys rush in. In the city.

So when the sun rose again, the Kujites successfully completed their bridge and began to push forward with their siege equipment.

This time, the rushing car successfully passed the moat and came to the gate of the city, but when the Kujites tried to knock on the gate, the huge curtain was dropped, although it was hanging in the air, but the lowest The place was just in front of the hammer. Originally, the heavy iron-clad hammer should be a powerful siege weapon, but because of the thick cloth, the impact of this weapon was removed by most, and it basically did not cause any damage to the city wall.

The Kurgits immediately lit a torch and tried to burn the rag, but the bottom of the curtain was soaked in water, which was very difficult to ignite. They could only tie a torch on the top of the spear to ignite the high part of the curtain. . But whenever this happens, a few huge sharp hooks will be lowered on the city wall, one of them will cut off the torch's wooden pole, or at least the part with flames will be cut off. The cutting effect of the sharp tool is also very bad. The curtain is already very thick and resistant to cutting, not to mention cutting a few cuts that will not affect the effect of this thing.

The effect of rushing the car is not good, but the ladder car is still moving forward. The wooden board erected on the top of this large siege vehicle is the best barrier for the soldiers on it to move forward. Bows and crossbows cannot pass through the wooden board, and the stone bullets of the catapult are also very difficult to hit and destroy the main body of the wooden board. Among the four ladder trucks that passed through the moat, only one was scrapped because it had broken the bottom wheel and was unable to move forward.

The rest of the ladder truck finally reached under the city wall, and successfully lowered the plank, revealing the Kujit soldiers on the truck.

"Chong! Warriors, for the Khan!"

The hordes of Kujit Lancers rushed to the city head, even if they were not on horseback, the heavy armor on their bodies and the scimitars and bones in their hands still allowed them to be competent heavy infantry in foot combat. The crossbowmen on the city’s head shot the last round of arrows and shot the Kujites who were in the front to the ground.

"Hold the walls!"

Sergeant Swadia under Count Cles gave a loud shout, and then drew his sword forward, parrying the scimitar of a Kujit rider, and then swung his shield to knock him over. After that, Byron's Rodok next to him was proficient. The crossbowman immediately drew out the military **** and swung it down, and the pointed tip was in the eyes of the Khergit rider. After that, he stirred vigorously for a few times, and the Khergit rider who was pressed under him was silent.

Three places on the wall were in battle. The side guarded by Byron’s troops was in better condition. The Rhodok spearmen lined up on the wall. The dense spear group made the Khergits unable to advance much. Even if they were large in number, they could only climb to the head of the city in a few, and were stabbed one by one by a spear and a machete. In the area defended by the elite troops of Count Kleis, the offensive was also restricted to the enemy’s embarkation point. The entire group of Swadia infantry used long spears and armed swords to fight against the Khergit soldiers who had embarked on the city. It was difficult to move forward. The Swadia troops could not drive the Kurgits down, but the Kurgits could not occupy a position at the head of the city.

But something went wrong in the area guarded by the support troops sent by the local lord. The highest level of this force was the light infantry of Swadia. The leader was only a knight and a sergeant. They In the face of the Kurgit Lancers who rushed up the city wall, he did his best to fight, but the effect was really unsatisfactory. A few light infantry surrounded together, and it was difficult to break the armor of the Lancers. A few pieces of armor dropped were nothing to the Lancers, but the cotton armor on them could not stop the fierceness of the iron bones. Beating, not to mention that most of the time they just struggled against the opponent's previous move, and the scimitar cut their throat in the next second.

The troops soon began to disintegrate, and more and more Kujites climbed up the city wall. Some even came up with Yanyue Knife on their backs, wielding the weapons that their ancestors had used hundreds of years ago to force the militiamen and light soldiers. The infantry retreated again and again, and some even fell directly from the wall because they couldn't stand firmly, and they fell to a **** head.

Amid the roar of the Kurgits, one by one defending light infantry was overthrown by them, and the militiamen fled around and interfered with the fighting of other friendly forces around. The flag on the tower of the castle waved again and again, and the horn sounded loudly. Byron’s backup troops under the city wall heard the sound and immediately moved forward under the command of the sergeants. They found the stairs that were blocked by water. The passage and the wall are constantly expanding, and the Kujit dismounts the cavalry who stand firm.

But at this moment, the man whom Byron valued arrived. The giant Olaf directly pushed away the people in front of him like a chicken. But it was worth it. When the big man appeared on the city wall wearing a bearskin chain armor that was as heavy as a vest, the enemies in front of him couldn't help but feel terrified.

Olaf swung his big axe, the heavy axe blade smashed the shield, and then hit the Khergit cavalry's helmet again. The helmet flew out, and the cavalry was also dizzy and bleeding from his nose. Fell to the ground. The rest of the Khergits were also a little embarrassed. They took a few steps back to stabilize the formation, surrounded Olaf with a number of superiors to fight him, but gave the other Swadia troops a respite, and also gave the city’s troops a respite. The support troops have time to open a road to the city wall for rescue.
