"The city gates, the city gates have been breached!"

The defenders of the fortress of Bruges were in turmoil, the soldiers looked at the city gate in amazement, the sun rose from the horizon in the distance, shining on the Falcon soldiers who were surging across the city walls like a black tide, at the same moment, the commander of the 32nd Gallic Infantry Regiment in the fortress, Scott Road Matthew, arrived late with his guards, "Where is Lord Tali?" Scott Mathieu ordered someone to stop a broken officer, who was the commander of the 21st Corps "I don't know, the whole army has been scattered!" The bloodied officer raised his face and pointed to a tower on the left, "The last place where Lord Tali commanded, but now ......" The officer shook his head and looked in the direction of the officer's finger,

Scott Matthew gasped "Oh my God"

I saw countless Northwest rebels in black armor, like ants climbing on sugar cubes, densely spread in the direction of the tower, the cold light of the weapons flickering like snowflakes, and the regimental flag of the 21st Regiment hanging on the top of the tower was like a kite with a broken string falling from above.

Although he is also a soldier, as a commander of a local army who has hardly been on the battlefield, Scat Matthew never imagined that he would one day see such a shocking picture, the defense line of the 21st Corps was already crumbling, the enemy's attack was too fierce, and in just an hour or so, it showed the strength of comprehensively breaking through the 21st Corps, an infantry regiment full of 10,000 people, based on the innate advantage of the strong city wall, was still hit by the fierce attack of the opponent.

The tower of the 21st Corps is finished, and the fortress of Bruges must not be lost, otherwise, it will be the left flank of the entire army that will be shaken!" "Quick, immediately organize men to snatch the city gate back!" After a brief loss of consciousness, Scott Matthew began to give the order "Hold on." It won't take long for the two infantry regiments in the rear to arrive!" He was still thinking, such a loud fighting sound, it is estimated that it can be heard more than ten miles away, as long as the two infantry regiments arrive in time, it may not be able to stop the momentum of the northwest rebels, but unfortunately, he did not know that he was facing an elite force of 50,000 Falcon Army, otherwise, he must have given the order to evacuate quickly at this moment. Even if the two infantry regiments in the rear arrived, they were already powerless

"Pay attention to the enemy cavalry!" A terrible shout suddenly came from the front that made him tremble, "Cavalry! The cavalry of the Northwest Rebels!" Scott Matthew was shocked, and sure enough, he heard the sound of rolling thunder behind the oncoming rout, and the earth was trembling, Scott Matthew looked at the fortress gate with a hesitant face, and his mind was completely blank, the other party actually used cavalry to storm the fortress! In his mind, the sound of fighting and shouting all over the field seemed to pause,

It's like an explosion that condenses at the top and bursts open

"Attack!"

Accompanied by a shout that resounded through the battlefield. Like an avalanche across a mountain,

Almost instantly, countless black cavalry, like a huge black rolling dragon, rushed in directly from the fortress gate. The earth shook violently, and the dust raised in the sky seemed to set off a shocking storm in the morning light. Like a sharp war knife slammed into the back of the rout of the army, "pop papa"

The war horse was like thunder forward, the turning knife light in the sunlight, like a meteor flashing in the night sky, the Gallic rout was inevitably hit and flew out, a tragic metal collision sound, at that moment, the first thing the rout saw was the thousands of horse hooves kicked down above their heads,

"Steady, don't mess around!"

Some of the Gallic officers shouted with all their might in the fierce wind, and though they were equally frightened and pale as paper, they were now the only ones to make a final struggle with such slogans,

Almost at the same time, the black shadow that spraced past him drowned out his voice in a terrible collision, the click of broken spears and broken spears everywhere, the terrible sound resounded through the sky with the rumble of war horses mixed with blood splattering, and in the face of this terrible momentum, the Gauls' infantry lined up like paper mud,

"Rush!"

Hukochili shouted loudly, and the assault blades composed of 5,000 cavalry of the Central Army, with their uniform movements, and the war horses jumping at high speed under their crotches, completely crushed the Gallic army scattered in front with the most swift attack.

"Stop them, stop them no matter what!"

Scott Matthew remembered the terrible rumors about the Northwest rebel cavalry, and suddenly shouted with a pale face,

Even the hundreds of guards behind him were so frightened by such a powerful assault method of the Northwest rebel cavalry that they gasped, no one would have thought that in the strong fortress encountering the terrible Northwest rebel cavalry, the rout in front of them was almost impossible to hinder it.

"Raise your spear, raise your spear, pick up your weapons if you don't want to die" The Gallic army was completely in a mess, and in the rude shouting of the infantry captain, the spearmen trembled and hurriedly raised the bayonet in their hands, and the trembling and scattered infantry gun formation seemed scattered,

"Kill"

A deafening shout, if the terrible storm is released in an instant, the horns of the cavalry, like an unstoppable cluster of arrows, plunged into the defensive line formed by the spear, snapped. The Gallic infantry were trampled to pulp by the hooves of the galloping horses, followed by the second row, the first row, if the balls that were knocked apart were squeezed away, the steel was violently colliding, the slashing sounds, the screams and wails, the neighing of the wounded, the snorting of the armored horses erupted like a volcano,

The central cavalry that rushed into the fortress slammed into the nearby Gallic rout,

Like a nail sharp smashed into the soft flesh, the huge impact of the cavalry immediately ploughed a bloody path in the surrounding Gallic rout, and the wild galloping war horses did not reduce their speed because of the small obstacles in front, but broke the already uneven rout in an instant, "Ah, help" "Mom" The Gauls screamed, people turned on their backs, and the chaos stirred up by the war horses in the crowd spread rapidly like the center of a bowling ball that was hit,

"Forward, penetrate them!" shouted Hu Keqili, the central general who led the attack, mercilessly, without the slightest emotion on his face. The sword is as fierce as lightning, a Gallic soldier was slashed over, under such a close collision, combat skills and strategy are completely unimportant at this moment, the narrow road meets, only the fearlessness and blood courage of the warriors, only the continuous forward, in order to maximize the advantage of the tonnage of the war horse, the powerful impact, never stop moving forward. Forward!

The heavy war horse in battle armor is the most advantageous shock weapon of the cavalry, and the hammer of the central cavalry "bumper" smashes the Gallic soldiers in front again and again! There are no sparks, only blood flowers! The shock formation is continuous and coherent like an indestructible steel spear; the enemy blocking in front of it is turned into a piece of fat butter that can be cut by itself, "No, it can't be held!" The Gauls finally began to break up on all fronts, leaving behind a scarred fortress of Bruges,

August 3 is also the day when the shape shì begins to reverse.

The 50,000 Falcon Army was taken by surprise. In one fell swoop, the center of gravity of the left flank of the Gallic army, Bruges, the head of the left flank of Gaul, who received the news, turned pale and immediately ordered the counterinsurgency troops from all over the country to march in the direction of Fort Bruges, and more than 100,000 left flank troops had just been assembled. Returning to this important weight that would determine the entire balance of war, Greda did not realize that at the time of his order, the nodes of both armies were concentrated on the fortress of Bruges. The offensive and defensive were reversed, the initiative in the battle quietly changed hands, and the advantage of the Gallic left flank in trying to use logistics to drag down the Falcon Army was completely lost.

The Falcon Army quickly set up a defensive line. Thor, who arrived from the Admiralty, was put on the head of the fortress of Bruges,

On the 7th of August, the left flank of the Gallic army reached the foot of the fortress, crowded with people, densely packed, innumerable, dozens of infantry phalanxes, knock, knock, knock!" With the first batch of advancing phalanx infantry, the rhythmic and neat footsteps, even the strong walls of the fortress were trembling, "Advance!" The steel luster formed by the Gallic phalanx was dazzling, and the oppressive force of tens of millions of people gathered, "Kill, kill! Kill!" A loud and neat shout came from the wind.

The Gallic spearmen discharged the four corners of the edge, the huge thick shield blocked itself, and countless spears burst through the cold light, and the whole row stretched out from the gap between the shields, like a huge hedgehog curled up there, and at the moment of danger, the spikes completely exploded outward,

On the flanks of the infantry phalanx, were the archer units that slowly followed,

These archers wore pointed caps on their heads, tight-cut sleeves on their bodies and legs, and had no armor, in fact, most of the archers would not be equipped with armor, only the Falcon Army, which had most of its combat power in ranged troops, would equip their crossbowmen with armor.

"Isn't it good" Hukochili stood at the head of the fortress, looking at the more than 100,000 enemies below, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and gave the order "Push Thor out!" "Squeak" The Thor stand roller made a heavy rolling sound on the city wall, and the black cannon muzzles were raised in the direction of the Gallic army, and the artillery bombarders borrowed from the navy fixed the gun mount with iron chains,

The caliber of the naval Thor is smaller than that of the siege Thor used by the army, and the weight is much lighter, the 100 naval Thor delivered this time are temporarily disassembled from the battleship, the gun carriage has not been removed, the upper sides of the gun carriage are solid wooden wheels, if it is launched on the naval battleship, the gun mount needs to be fixed with an iron hook, and it is the same when launched on the fortress, otherwise the strong recoil is enough to hurt the soldiers behind, if it is not hooked, a cannon is fired, and the whole gun can be shaken back up to several meters

"That's?"

Gleda looked at the long iron pipe that suddenly appeared on the fortress, his pupils shrank unnaturally, and suddenly looked a little unnatural, he had never seen Thor, but he also knew according to intelligence that the Northwest rebels had a very terrible long-range weapon, which was said to be able to open mountains and crack stones, for this description, Gleda thought it was a bit exaggerated, but he also thought that such a weapon should be very dangerous, under his cautious sight, countless large instruments flashing with a cold metallic luster, were being pushed up by the Northwest rebels in the fortress in rows from the city wall" Attack with the whole army!" Greda gritted his teeth, he had no choice, he couldn't take Fort Bruges, and the entire left flank was in a situation of collapse, since the other party was a long-range attack weapon, closing the distance or being able to reduce the damage, the loud trumpet representing the attack on all fronts resounded through the sky, "Forward!"

More than 100,000 Gallic troops swooped down from all around the city walls, soldiers and horses rolled forward, and the heavens and the earth were filled with terrible shocking sounds at this moment.

The rain-dense boulders and arrows on the walls bombarded the sea of people below, splashing terrifying red waves. It's a wave of flesh and screams. With this decisive attack, not caring about casualties and fearless sacrifices, the Gallic army advanced step by step, until it was pressed to the bottom of the fortress wall, "Shoot!" The falcon crossbowmen on the city wall fired one after another,

Countless Gallic soldiers fell in scarlet blood, and the first to arrive was the fastest lightly armed assault infantry, and under the cover of the archers, in the shooting blind spots under the walls, the Gallic assault infantry set up human ladders and climbed up with a scream along the cracks in the walls. The swift counterattack on the city wall hit them, and countless soldiers were shot arrows from a high place, and the city wall was black and oppressive.

"Order the archers to take cover!"

Greda's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the fortress of Bruges, the combat effectiveness of the rebels in the northwest is indeed amazing, in the face of the onslaught of more than 100,000 troops, the city walls are also in order, and the archers who shoot arrows have finished shooting a batch. Soon retreated, giving way to the archers behind them, and the dense clusters of arrows rained down on their own troops below, and 20,000 Gallic archers charged forward. Covering their infantry with dense fire, tens of thousands of arrows flew in the air, shining metal flashes back and forth between the two armies. The fortified city walls also flew sideways than the brick chips on the arrows, and cracks appeared.

Hukochili looked at the hoplites moving slowly forward below, and slashed his hand. Boom "A huge roar erupted from the head of the fortress, the fire light mixed with white smoke rose, and one after another dragged the fireballs of red light, falling towards the Gaul heavy infantry below,

"What is this?" The Gallic soldiers who were still climbing the city wall were frightened, and the firelight flickering at close range made their retinas have a burning feeling, and the huge bombardment sound frightened many Gallic soldiers to jump down from the climbing city wall, like countless light masks, suddenly exploded from the periphery of the Gallic phalanx, and the rising hot heat wave swept the soldiers around them into a whirlpool of air, and swept away in all directions, and the broken limbs and flesh and blood, mixed with the firelight, exploded into the sky, scattered in the air like raindrops, and the following was already chaotic

Boom, boom......

Waves of smoke enveloped the ground 100 meters ahead, turning it into a world filled with gunpowder. In the smoke of gunpowder, the fire caused by the explosion was so vivid in the semi-dark red smoke and dust, in the smoke of gunpowder, the dense queue of Gallic heavy infantry was pushed down in a row, it was like the thatch of a hurricane, it seemed to step on a huge tuyere at the same time, countless objects flew up, flying high into the sky, falling in an irregular curve in the gaze, shattering the remains of the soldiers' corpses, and the whole shield that was blown up and twisted and deformed,

Broken spears, and countless dusty sandstones. In particular, the Gallic heavy infantry's marker tower shield was like a leaf fluttering in the air of an explosion, fluttering lightly, making various turns in mid-air, smashing into the damp and soft earth. "Mom, what is this?"

The Gauls were completely stunned by the violent explosions around them, and even Greda, who had already sacrificed some of the soldiers, did not expect such a terrible sight, and the first round of fire from the other side wiped off most of the perimeter of the array under his command, known as the death regiment.

At least a thousand of the bravest regular soldiers were wounded or killed in the inexplicable explosion, and the outskirts of the army were already in turmoil. The soldiers were frightened and turned pale, in a series of hellish explosions, the steel tower shield was simply defenseless, people turned on their backs, flesh and blood flew sideways, and the Gallic infantry phalanx swept by the flood like a mighty waterfall hit a hard rock, and wave after wave of Gallic military formations slowly just stopped their feet, like moths to a fire, with terrified eyes, and were beaten into meat sauce by the continuous thunder cannons around them.

At this moment, Greda regretted a little, the other party had such a terrible weapon, and he had completely put his superior forces in a position of slaughter, and forcibly attacking the city was tantamount to self-destruction, "Evacuate the whole army!"

Gretel's bloodshot eyes gave the order, but it was too late, it was not only Thor who arrived at the Bruges fortress, but also the big killers who really faced the infantry cluster, the ballista and the arrow cart, these bloody killing weapons developed in the war of the unification of Ikadiva, completely erupted at this moment, "whew"

The sky suddenly darkened, and one hundred and thirty-five repeating ballistas and one hundred and fifteen large arrow carts were fired at the same time, and a large number of flying arrows obscured the sunlight like clouds, and the dark clouds instantly turned into raindrops, and metal waterfalls fell from the sky! The arrows fired by the crossbow machine were so powerful that the Gallic soldiers who rushed to the front were as if they had been punched head-on by an invisible giant, and the whole person suddenly flew backwards backwards, and his body twisted into an unnatural posture in mid-air, and he was shot into a hedgehog after flipping. Those heavy crossbow machines relied on powerful machine springs to start, from the height of the fortress to the Gauls below to shoot down, "pop" into the Gauls of countless heavy crossbows suddenly smashed into the flour pile of iron hammer, in the air, countless blood rain accompanied by the stump flew into the air, bloody wind and rain, the strong smell of blood hit the face, the infantry that fell behind the face of the flesh,

"Mom!"

The Gallic soldiers were frightened by the terrible scene before them, and retreated like a frightened flock of sheep, allowing the infantry captains behind them to wave their heavy weapons and shout forward, advance, no retreat!"

For a time, the walls of the entire fortress of Bruges were like a volcano that suddenly erupted, and countless arrows covered the sky. In this terrible metal storm,

The flesh and blood of the weak armor and shield of the Gallic local army were as fragile as paper, and the soldiers in the front row were instantly crushed to pieces,

The Gallic army trampled and screamed in a panic, arrows rained down like locusts, and the shrill wind of arrows piercing through the air filled the space.......
