"attack!"

Outside Migsburg, the siege began amidst roars. Driven by the phalanx, the ladder and the heavy siege tower moved slowly towards the city wall, and the arrows shot from the city wall sparsely hit the soldiers’ shields, making clanking sounds, but The thunder was heavy and the rain was small, and it did not cause any casualties to the soldiers of the Kingdom of Winster.

While the Migsburg defenders were firing, the crossbow militia group behind the heavy sergeants and the dismounted imperial knights also stopped after entering the firing range and wound up the wooden crossbow in their hands with ammunition. After the loading was completed, They raised the crossbow under the loud orders of their respective company captains, aimed at the flashing figures on the city wall, pulled the triggers together, and then listened to a violent storm-like air vibration. The black pressure almost obscured the sky. The arrow rain rose into the air, making a terrifying howling like a locust, and it actually directly covered the entire city wall!

When the rain of arrows subsided, looking at the walls of Miegsburg again, it was full of crossbow bolts. A large number of soldiers who had no time to escape lay down on the corridor behind the wall. They were almost shot into hedgehogs. The corpse was terrible, and it was no longer what it looked like. Some of the wall stacks were also shattered because they were continuously shot by crossbow arrows, and the broken stones were scattered all over the ground.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when the enemy was suppressed by our own crossbowmen, the heavy sergeants who were pushing the siege equipment to speed up their pace, ran directly under the walls of Migsburg against the rare arrows shot from those arrow towers, and then, A large number of ladders were erected high, leaning against the city wall, supported and fixed by a few soldiers underneath, while other soldiers raised their shields above their heads to defend against falling rocks and arrows from the sky, climbing step by step.

In addition, dozens of siege towers also approached the city wall in the tense and fearful gaze of the defenders. After only a few meters away from the city wall, the siege tower stopped abruptly, and then only heard a call in German. Ordered, the suspension bridge on the siege tower collapsed, slamming heavily on the wall, and a layer of dust and a large amount of sawdust appeared. In the next second, several heavy-armed sergeants with shields rushed out from the siege tower. They let out a terrifying roar and jumped directly into the city wall to fight fiercely with the defenders who were struggling to deal with it.

"In the name of the Father! We will win!"

Under the city wall, Count Charles, wearing a full plate armor, shouted loudly, inspiring the soldiers around him, and then he led the elite early generals and guards under his command to climb the siege tower. When the commander joined the battlefield, the soldiers all cheered. The soldiers who had fallen into battle on the city wall heard the cheers behind them for a moment, but soon they heard the voice of the commander in the battle himself. They also boosted their morale and launched a fierce attack on the enemy.

"General Guard, charge with me!"

Although wearing a heavy full-body plate armor to climb the siege tower was a bit difficult, Charles successfully took his general guards to the wall. He straightened his shield and held a knight sword along the drawbridge into the battle group. The backhand slashed a spear stabbed by the enemy, and the back shield was smashed forward, and a shield hit the opponent's face. The latter's nose was shattered by the violent impact, and the blood flow continued, and he couldn't help covering his face. With a painful groan, Charles swung out the sharp sword in his hand and chopped off the enemy's head with one sword.

"Soldiers of the empire, I am with you and attack!"

Charles, who had decapitated the enemy’s head, raised his sword high and shouted, and at this moment, an enemy behind him took the opportunity to sneak attack and stabbed his spear, but he had not fully pierced out, guarding the general guard knights around Charles. Kick him down with one foot, before he could react, a few sharp swords fell from the sky and pierced his chest, smashing his internal organs, and blood gushing out like spring water, mixed with broken flesh. Soon the surrounding ground was stained red.

When the scream of the soldier reached Charles’s ears, he reacted with hindsight. Looking at the **** corpse on the ground, he felt a little scared, but he was afraid that he would soon be left behind. Because he remembered that he was wearing this set of cross-century full-body plate armor with very high defensive power. There are almost no cold weapons that can break through the defense of the armor. Even if he was sneaked by the enemy, he was unscathed.

Thinking of this, Charles felt confident. He shouted, raised the **** sword in his hand, and took the lead in launching a fierce offensive against the stubbornly resisting enemy. The sword in his hand can easily split the defending soldiers' clothes. The light armor of the enemy, but the sword and spear in the enemy's hand will be bounced off by the full-body plate armor he wears, leaving at most a shallow white spot, but it can leave a white spot on him Most of the people have become dead in a pool of blood.

With the full-body plate armor given to each general by the system, Charles is like a **** of war, taking the lead on the wall, killing any enemy in front of him, and beside him, the elite guards of the early generals have been loyal. Follow him around and block the enemy's sneak attacks for him. When all the enemies on the wall surrendered, everyone's body was covered with blood. They stood on the corpse, panting, watching their soldiers continue to be attacked. The gates flooded into the city and fought with the defenders.

What a scene~lightnovelpub.net~ The city gate with a layer of iron on the outside fell torn apart in the doorway, and dozens of corpses of soldiers lay down on this short corridor. , They died in different states, either being pierced by a spear, or being ripped apart, their internal organs flowing all over the ground, or their throats were cut and blood splashed on the spot.

And rushing out of the doorway, you can see the resisting soldiers everywhere on the wide streets. Their equipment is not as good as the heavy armored soldiers who attacked the city, not to mention the elite walking imperial knights. Under the fierce offensive of the heavily armed sergeants and the dismounted imperial knights, the defenders who resisted on the street were quickly defeated, leaving behind a corpse to flee in a hurry-many of them will not rejoin after finding new troops. Instead, he fled into the alley extending in all directions, broke into the homes of innocent civilians, and sought refuge.

After the defenders on the street near the city gate were defeated, the feudal knights staying outside the city followed the pre-war deployment. After raising the flag signal on the city wall, the temporary cavalry general appointed by Charles pulled out his sword and moved forward. Pointing to, immediately afterwards, a brigade of imperial knights and a brigade of chain knights rushed out on their horses, rushing for the city gate mightily, and the momentum of hundreds of heavy cavalry running at the same time almost made the city wall begin to tremble, its momentum Like thunder in the day, the defenders in the city were upset.

"Offensive, let every wall of Migsburg be planted with the double-headed eagle flag of the Empire!"
