"Retreat! Retreat!"

"We failed! The Winsters are too strong, we are not their opponents!"

"..."

On the streets of Tarosos near the city gate, you can see soldiers fleeing in embarrassment. They screamed loudly as they ran away. Behind them, on the tall city wall, there was already warming up. The yellow double-headed eagle flag on the black background of the Kingdom of Sturt, and a team of heavily armed soldiers are also quickly passing through the wide-open city gate.

All of this has to start from an hour ago. When one team after another team of heavily armored soldiers jumped down the wall along the suspension bridge of the siege tower, and fought fiercely with the defenders, everything was moving in the direction of disadvantage and defenders. develop. How freedmen and slaves belonging to light infantry are the opponents of elite Germanic veterans, they were beaten to the ground with just one encounter, and the defense line collapsed instantly, even if the heavy infantry composed of civilian soldiers joined the battle, it would not be able to restore the situation.

The tragedy happened. The lawmakers thought that the light infantry composed of freedmen and slaves could rely on the wall to resist for a while, but they didn't expect this group of waste to be so vulnerable that they were almost crushed and beaten. They hurriedly brought the citizen soldiers to the top, but they also took their lives in.

When the leading councilors died with the Winster’s spears, the line of defense on the city wall collapsed instantly. If the enemy is fighting, it is all supported by the prestige of the parliamentarians, then when their pillars fall, the fear that has always been in their hearts erupts instantly, and they will no longer have the courage to fight the enemy.

As a result, the city wall was lost, and the city gate was unavoidable after the city wall fell. The Winster Expeditionary Army that captured these two places can drive straight in and enter the city of Tarosos without any hindrance. However, this does not mean that the defenders of Tarosos Abandoning resistance, they intend to rely on temporary barriers built with various building materials on the street to engage in cruel street fighting with the enemy!

With the mobilization of the parliament, almost all the people in the city joined the battle for defending the city. Whether it was an elderly person with gray hair or a teenager under the age of military service, they all took up arms and climbed onto the roof of their home. The Winster invaders who entered the city threw javelins or stones.

For a time, the companies that went deep along the street were attacked from all sides. Some of them were caught off guard and were shot by a javelin that fell from the sky, or they were directly hit in the head by a heavy stone and fainted on the spot. The soldiers thought They wanted to fight back, but angrily discovered that the enemy was actually the civilians standing on the roof or haunting the dark alleys. They didn’t want to fight after the first blow, and retreated directly, leaving one for the Winsters. Back view.

As a result, the advancing speed of the army became abnormally slow. Soldiers not only had to guard against possible garrison soldiers, but also beware of javelins and stones flying around.

This situation was unexpected by Charles. While still in the large camp outside the city, he listened to the news reported by the officers, but he was very angry for a while. He immediately ordered the long-range infantry to accompany the attack, usually appearing in the archers. All Tarososs in sight can be shot.

"Anyone who can be acted by God's sight will be killed!" He said in a cold tone.

"After the city is broken, slaughter the city for ten days, in order to behave like you!" He ordered again.

...

"attack!"

Charles' orders quickly spread throughout the army. The soldiers who had been demoralized by the vast ocean of the People’s War were immediately encouraged. The company's formation method continued to advance. With the support of the archers, those Tarosos people who appeared on the roof only had their heads up. Whether it was an old man with a pale head and a seemingly innocuous woman, they were shot and killed mercilessly.

Perhaps it was frightened by the ruthless killing of the Winsters. The civilians of Tarothos soon disappeared. Except for a few people who were still relying on the complicated alleys to harass the Winster army, only the guards were left. The army is still resisting. However, how can those simple temporary obstacles withstand the advancement of Winster's army? They only used a few earthen grenades to blow up the obstacles, and then soldiers swarmed in and defeated the defenders behind in one fell swoop.

The street fighting continued until the evening. The Winsters didn’t know how many defenders had been defeated or how many Tarosus soldiers had been killed. They finally surrounded the parliament in the center of Tarosos. In this huge building, more than a hundred soldiers were stationed to resist stubbornly. In addition to the guards directly under the parliament, they were citizens with a high sense of honor. Under the leadership of the elderly chief of parliament, they set up a tight spear phalanx at the only entrance, no matter how large the number of enemies surrounding this place, they will not waver.

Looking at the darkened enemy outside, the old councillor Arthur Kirkland sighed. Although he was inconvenient to change into the armor due to physical problems and still wore the white robe he wore during the meeting, his body still exuded a majesty, he worked hard. Straighten up, stretched out a thin hand, pointed at the enemy outside, and said to the soldiers in front of him: "Citizens of Tarosos, we have reached the last moment, except for the building behind us. All cities have fallen into the hands of the enemy. Our wives and children are about to become slaves to the Winsters, and our city will also become a colony of the Winsters~lightnovelpub.net~ I don’t want to see this happen, But I was unable to recover, so I decided to coexist and die with this city, even dying on the battlefield is better than humiliatingly dying in a cage.

Citizens of Tarosos, true warriors do not need a thousand words to inspire. As the chairman of the city-state assembly, I implore you to join me in the battle for the impending city-state. "

"War! War! War!"

The soldiers roared, those who can retreat here are warriors who have made up their minds to coexist and die with the city-state, even if the old speaker does not need to explain, they will fight to the end!

Although he did not understand the language of the Ossa Peninsula, Charles could still hear the soldiers' determination from the shouts of the soldiers. The Danish commander sighed slightly, feeling sorry for these warriors, and then said: "Offensive. Let them die gloriously as soldiers."

As soon as he finished speaking, the elite heavy-armed sergeants under his command launched a storming attack on the House. The remaining defenders relied on the not-so-wide gate to resist, and they were blocked from the gate in the future, preventing them from entering the sacred house, but Over time, more and more soldiers fell. Even if they displayed more courage and force than their own, they still couldn't beat the Winsters who had an absolute advantage...
