"attack!"

After the wanton tilt of the artillery, the walls of Fort Khovinj were devastated, and there were large and small depressions. After the sound of the artillery stopped, countless imperial soldiers carried a long ladder and rushed towards the snowy ground. On the city wall, the shouts of killing from their mouths converged, and almost the entire castle began to tremble.

咻咻咻咻

Just after the imperial soldiers rushed to the shooting range of the defending archers, a small, deadly rain of arrows soared from the wall, flew mid-air and fell into the running army of imperial soldiers, dinging on the high shield When the sound of the moment, someone was shot by arrows from a tricky angle, and fell into the snow on the ground with a muffled sound. The blood flowing from them dripped on the white snow, which directly stained this piece of land from far away. Look, this bright red is particularly dazzling.

Jingle bells-

"Go ahead! Speed ​​up!" Listening to the tinkling sound from the shield above, feeling the shaking from the arm, the walking imperial knights in the crowd shouted to the heavy soldiers running around. The heavy armor on his body is obviously more difficult to run in this snowy field, so he can only move forward slowly, being overtaken by the soldiers following.

Due to the limitations of the snow, Richard's soldiers could not push heavy siege towers and siege hammers at all, so they could only use the lightest ladder to attack.

Seeing that some of the soldiers in the siege were shot and fell from time to time, Richard gave a few words to the messenger beside him, and the latter immediately rode his horse to the formation of the crossbowmen. After that, thousands of soldiers The mixed army of archers and crossbowmen moved forward slowly amidst the sound of the horns. The most striking was the soldiers with huge shields behind them. These soldiers were the Great Shield Crossbowmen in the game. The huge shield can protect these soldiers well when loading ammunition.

For one thing, Richard was even speculating whether some of them had removed the door panels of the house.

In the front are heavy sergeants and spear militias charged with a rain of garrisons, which are mixed with some walking imperial knights, and in the back are the long-range army formed by civilian archers, civilian crossbowmen, and Great Shield Crossbowmen. After the shooting range, they stood on the spot, took out the arrows from the quiver around their waists, and the archers used their bows to draw the arrows. Under the reprimand of the officers, they shot into the sky. Thousands of archers shot at the same time. Cover the sky and the sun, and directly cover the city wall after drawing an arc in mid-air.

Under this apocalyptic volley of bows and arrows, the defenders on the wall suffered heavy losses. Those archers who had been shooting unscrupulously before were instantly sanctioned by the rain of arrows that fell from the sky, and the whole body was filled with dense arrows, almost becoming Hedgehog, such a miserable way of death made the soldiers who had escaped a catastrophe break their nerves, and many people were scared out of fishy feces on the spot.

Then, just as the surviving soldiers thought that the enemy's archers had stopped shooting and leaned out of the wall to continue attacking the imperial infantry who charged, the more terrifying rain of crossbow arrows came with a buzzing vibration. , Once again covered the city wall, and a large number of crossbow arrows fell into the castle, hitting the soldiers who were running to support the city wall.

With the cover of their own archers, the infantry running with the ladder only needed to defend the arrows shot from the tower. They quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall, erected the ladder, put it on the surface of the city wall, and began to climb.

On the other side, soldiers carrying improvised bombs made from the black powder that came with the artillery a few days ago also rushed outside the gates of Fort Khovinj under the cover of their shields. The soldiers who were responsible for protecting these bombs immediately formed a close unit. The tortoise shell formation defended against the rolling stones and arrows falling from above. Under the shield, several soldiers used shovel to dig the snow outside the city gate frantically, and then placed a clay pot with a large amount of black powder underneath and pulled it out. After the match was long enough, they began to light the match.

After the match was ignited, the tight shield formation instantly dissipated, and every soldier scrambled away and ran out. About ten seconds later, only a deafening explosion sounded, and then a heat wave and shock wave chased from behind. Come up and overturn the running soldiers. The violent vibration caused by the explosion made the entire castle tremble, and the soldiers who climbed the city wall almost fell off their hands because of the vibration.

When the black smoke from the explosion dissipated, the city gate was already torn apart and the surrounding snow melted. The defenders who were originally deployed behind the city gate fell to the ground in all directions, bleeding from their orifices, and seeing them alive. It won't be.

"The city gate was blown up! Attack!"

After the loud shouts of the walking imperial knights, the soldiers gathered under the city wall immediately shifted the direction of the siege and swarmed towards the city gate. They quickly rushed into the city gate without hindrance, and crossed those lying on the ground that were exploded. The corpse of the soldier was shaken to death, and he went to the inside of the castle.

The sudden deafening sound of the explosion made Fort Khovinj’s defenders frightened~lightnovelpub.net~ Faced with the charge of the imperial soldiers, they couldn’t organize a resistance at once, and their formation was directly broken up. Fell to the assassination of the enemy's spear. Those soldiers standing on the city wall were shocked and fell to the ground. They were struggling to stand up to meet the enemy when they watched the enemy climb up the ladder, but it was too late.

"Offensive! For Your Majesty Caesar!"

In the melee, the walking imperial knights wearing exquisite half-body plate armor and wielding terrifying mace and mace showed great power. The defending army’s weapons could not break the defense of the half-body plate armor on their body, but their fangs were brandishing. Sticks and maces can easily smash the enemy's skull, or break the enemy's internal organs through a layer of armor. Faced with such a miserable death, even the bravest warrior will feel fear.

These unkillable cruel opponents quickly made the defenders lose their determination to resist. They would rather be a lowly slave for a lifetime than die so painfully. As the first soldier took the lead and abandoned his weapon to kneel and surrendered, more soldiers also gave up resistance and squatted on the ground, begging for mercy from the enemy. Then, the Imperial soldiers stormed into the inner fort where the old count was located and tried to resist. The death of the character will once again frighten the old Earl Enskeza's prisoner.

On the city wall, seeing the family flag flying on the inner castle being lowered, the young Enskesar, who was still stubbornly resisting, also gave up resistance in despair, letting the heavily armored sergeant squat himself to the ground, tying himself to the ground. Before the poor young nobleman even had time to use his commanding ability, the castle was breached.

In fact, it is not that our army does not work hard, but the enemy has a high!

After the surrender of the young Enskesar, the soldiers who fought with him surrendered immediately, and the castle fell completely into Richard's hands.
