Black Iron Crown

Chapter 718: The fall of the city wall

The balance of war gradually tilted towards the direction of the Imperial Army. The soldiers of the Imperial Army fought bravely, and they were confident in fighting against their former defeated generals, while the soldiers of the Jihad Coalition were even more afraid.

There were more defenders on the city wall than the Imperial Army, but they were unable to give full play to their strength in launching a siege of the Imperial Army. Instead, they were defeated by the soldiers under Reiner.

"No! They are too strong! We can't beat them! Just like on the previous battlefield! All this is meaningless!"

"I want to go home alive! I can't lose my life here!"

"We can't defeat the enemy at all, they are too strong!"

The morale of the soldiers of the jihadist coalition is getting worse and worse. Even with the encouragement of the Templars and church sergeants, they still cannot turn things around.

At the same time, more than two thousand elite reinforcements composed of more Templar knights and sergeants, as well as the knights under the lord and the king, are rushing towards the city wall.

The scale of Rugoin Fortress is undoubtedly very large. The outer wall of the main fort is more than two hundred meters away from the inner wall. These people gathered together and it took more than 20 minutes to reach the city wall.

The battle situation became more intense, and more imperial troops rushed up the city wall along the wells and ladders. At this time, they had escaped from the most dangerous time of the siege. There were comrades in front of them, and there were not many soldiers who could climb the ladders. Time to attack them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The rushing car kept hitting the gate of the Lugoin Fortress. At this time, the outermost layer of iron wooden gate has been knocked to pieces, but there is a layer of iron net behind this layer of wooden gate. Zhuangcheng Gate Gate.

"The Scarlet Gryphon Knights are ready, as soon as the city gate is broken, they will charge immediately!" Rainer said to Count Varas who was standing beside him.

Count Varas nodded, and ran towards the place where the Scarlet Griffin Knights was, shouting: "The time has come to make a contribution! Everyone is ready for battle! When the gate is broken, we will rush in and kill them all. Everyone!"

The battle on the city wall has come to a tug of war. Many soldiers of the jihadist coalition have escaped from the stairs of the city wall or were squeezed down. Those reinforcements could not board the wall at all. A large number of deserters were blocked here. The elite reinforcements unable to effectively support the city wall can only helplessly watch the space above the city wall being occupied by the Imperial Army.

"Turn around now! Immediately! The escaper died!"

The fierce knights shouted loudly, and at the same time executed the deserters one by one, using the weapons in their hands to help these coalition soldiers muster the courage to face those enemies that they didn't want to face at all.

Left and right is also a death. Escape will be killed by the knight masters, and if you don't escape, you will be killed by fierce enemies. In this case, it is better to fight the enemies, at least even if you die, you can get a title of heroic warfare.

Suddenly, after the arrival of the "Supervisor Team", the offensive of the warriors on the wall suddenly slowed down. They suddenly discovered that only a few elite were still fighting, and the defenders whose fighting spirit had collapsed for most of the others suddenly became crazy.

These cowardly defenders just now seemed to not care about their own lives at this moment, fighting against the imperial army with extremely dangerous methods, even if they paid the price of their lives, they would wound the imperial soldiers.

In this short period of time, the casualties of the Imperial Army surged, and at the same time the pace of advancement was almost stagnant.

"Damn! How come they suddenly become unafraid of death!"

When the soldiers were in a bitter battle, the rushing car in front of the city gate finally smashed the cast iron gate gate, leaving only a little pitiful residue hanging on the top and crumbling.

Several soldiers operating the rush cart hurriedly cleared the fallen iron gate, and then worked hard to move the rush cart away.

"No! Our city gate was broken!"

Only then did the elites in charge of the support discover that the city gate had been completely destroyed, and they rushed to the pupae, trying to plug the gap and prevent the imperial army from entering along the city gate.

"Knights! Charge!"

Count Varas saw the opportunity in front of him at a glance, raised the lance in his hand and shouted, and then rushed out as soon as the rider took the lead. More than 70 snow-colored griffon knights and more than 200 knights' followers followed Behind him, he also rushed towards the open gate.

The entire Scarlet Griffin Knights group was like a crimson torrent, rushing to the city gate swiftly, making a deafening sound, almost shaking the earth.

The distance of two hundred meters is only twenty seconds for the cavalry. They charge at all costs, and the speed is extremely fast.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, the horse speed had reached the peak under the blessing of the charging distance. Before more elites blocked the gate, the Knights had already arrived at the gate under the leadership of the Earl of Varas.

Count Varas flattened the lance in his hand, as did the knights beside him, forming a plane composed of lances.

"not good!"

The pupils of all the elite troops blocking the city gate suddenly shrank, and the heart seemed to be severely gripped by a big hand.

"Go back! Go back quickly..."

Before the people in front could respond effectively, the lances of the Scarlet Griffin Knights had arrived, and the deafening roar sounded. The lances in their hands snapped instantly, taking the lives of more than a dozen people.

Then came the collision of the war horse and the slash of the long sword, and the whole city gate cave was like a **** meat grinder, emitting a short and chilling symphony of death.

Immediately afterwards, the Knights rushed out of the city gate under the leadership of the Earl of Varas. Their equipment and tall horses made the enemy unable to fight back. After rushing in, they plunged into the flock like a tiger. Furiously hitting and slashing the walking enemies.

More than five hundred knights all rushed into the walls of Fort Rugoin~lightnovelpub.net~ They quickly used war horses and swords to clear the entire fortress square, but in the city gate cave, only that one was left. Vague flesh and blood paste.

"No! The enemy has rushed in! Let's run!" The soldiers who resisted the imperial army on the city wall saw that the knight masters were so embarrassed that they had no time to take care of themselves, so they quickly lost their will to fight.

Can escape, why continue to fight? They didn't think too much, they only knew that there was a city wall behind them. As long as they fled to wherever they were, they could live until the end of the war under the protection of others.

The jihadist fighters on the city wall instantly collapsed, like a pile of sand fortresses, falling apart.

Seeing that the enemy army could no longer resist, the elites of the imperial army shouted and pursued them. They were like tigers descending from the mountain, slaughtering enemies like livestock with ease.

"This..." Seeing the enemy's cavalry raging so raging, and the city wall has completely fallen, the fiefdom knights finally lost the motivation to resist. Although they are not afraid of death, having wives and children is always a concern. They still don't want to. It's so meaningless to die.
