Chapter 0692 - Attacking the Hearts of the People

516 summer, Atlas Mountains.

In the evening, the party entered the Dorseo region and encountered a tribe of hundreds of people.

They also spotted the team and went up to ask questions, but in the local language.

Yamazaki asks Ali Walkam to answer and tell them that the goal of Yamazaki and his party is the city of Dorseo, and those who resist will become slaves, and those who surrender will become free men.

And in the middle of the conversation, the warriors of the tribe assembled.

Eighty bears rushed forward, rushing to their line in the rain of arrows, and roaring.

The distance was too close, the war horse could not withstand the breath of the bear, and ran away in fright, and the opponent's formation was suddenly chaotic, and it could be said that the army could not be defeated.

Ali Walkam conveyed it according to Yamazaki's meaning.

"We will not attack you, but take your men and your sheep and cattle with you, and come back when we are gone. ”

When the tribe is gone, they have no place to live, as long as the people are there and the cattle are there.

Yamazaki was to borrow their tent for one night, and asked for their clay pots and oil for the siege.

The reason why they were let go was to let the news out, to lure the troops of the city of Dorseo out, to fight a field battle, to destroy some of their military strength, and to make the siege easier.

Of course, if they don't come out, that's okay. ......

In the evening, Ali Walkam and other officers gathered to discuss whether they really wanted to participate in tomorrow's battle.

"If we don't participate, can we escape?"

"yes, we're not wearing armor right now. ”

"They guarded us, and they didn't give us crossbows. ”

"Even if we want to hijack them, the ones guarding outside the main tent, but those bears, I don't think we can get past them. ”

"It seems that I can only participate, and I hope I won't meet acquaintances. ”

"To be honest, I'd like to kill a few acquaintances. ”

"Ha, me too. ”

"Will we win then?"

"See their crossbows? Field warfare, almost invincible. ”

"And the bears, I don't think the gates can withstand their claws, I mean the metal claws. ”

"yes, I even think that if there were more of these powerful crossbows, they would be able to sweep across the continent, as in the Roman Empire. ”

"Then let's participate and establish the first meritorious service. ”

"I think so. ”

"Then let's participate. ”

Eventually, everyone decided to participate.

In fact, they already want to participate, but they still need to convince themselves, and conforming to the crowd is a good reason. ......

On the other side, the city of Dolceo.

When the news of the attack reached the city, it immediately caused an uproar, but when it was learned that it was only a team of less than 3,000 people, it immediately caused laughter.

So, the regular army of a legion, plus the mobile unit of a legion, set out overnight to teach the arrogant fools a lesson and give them a night attack. ......

In a makeshift camp.

Yamazaki sees the action of the Dorsai army through the owl and asks Flo to gather the team, distribute the crossbows and arrows, and then go on a night raid as well.

Yamazaki saw the opponent's movements clearly through the owl, and without using torches, Yamazaki asked the others to trust the reins, and led the horse team around the flank to launch a night attack, which naturally brought the people on the horse to the battlefield.

The sound of the horses' hooves wrapped in cloth did not come far away, and the Dorsai troops who were hurrying away with torches did not notice it.

It wasn't until they got close to a point that the Dorsai Army realized the problem.

"The sound of horses' hooves, enemy attack!"

"Shoot at the front elevation angle!"

"Whoosh!"

In the vibration of 2,000 metal crossbow strings, 2,000 crossbow arrows flew out.

When winding, you hold the handle and rotate it with a rotating shaft, just like using a reel on a fishing rod, so it is very easy.

Only alloy crossbows and alloy crossbows can make crossbows and crossbows miniaturized and powerful.

And the chaos brought about by this wave of crossbow arrows made the Dorsai army a little confused, but the morale was still there.

"They are in the East, rockets. ”

A part of the Dorsai army scattered rockets to illuminate them, but the rockets landed and did not find Yamazaki them.

Yamazaki visually inspected it, and there was still about fifty meters left, and at the same time waved his hand, allowing Flo to order another attack.

"Shoot!"

"Whoosh!"

The second round of crossbow rain appeared, just because some people were slow to wind, and it was a little messy.

"Shield!"

"Charge!"

"Retreat!"

Since no one was found, the command of the Dorsail army was somewhat confused.

A second wave of crossbow bolts rained down, making the scene even more chaotic.

Part of the people carried out the order to charge, part of them carried out the order to retreat.

"Shoot!"

"Raise your shield!

The charging Dorseo army advanced under a rain of crossbow arrows, and when the rockets fell, they finally saw the army led by Yamazaki.

"Shoot!"

"Keep spreading, shield raised!"

The charging Dorsai army continued to disperse under the rain of crossbow arrows, trying to reduce casualties with space.

"Retreat!"

The army of the Gronn family withdrew, and instead ran to attack the Dorsaian army that had just retreated and regrouped.

"Raise your shield and scatter. ”

The sound of crossbow strings was heard, and the assembled army dispersed again.

However, he still ate three rounds of crossbow arrows.

"Retreat!"

The army of the Grons withdrew again, away from the battlefield to recuperate, waiting for the Dorsaian army to regroup, and then retreated again.

This time, the Dorsai army did not dare to assemble on a large scale again, and divided into small teams to rescue the wounded and retreat with them, from the opposite direction.

Yamazaki did not pursue, and they also had to rest and prepare for the siege after dawn. ......

In the early hours of the morning, the city of Dolceo.

The defeated army that fled back to the city made the middle and upper echelons of the city lose their sleepiness, and they looked at the small but sturdy alloy crossbow arrows, passed the decision to prepare for war in an all-round way, and woke up the whole city with war drums to build fortifications.

And when the sky turned white, Yamazaki led his troops to the castle and caused the horn of war to blow in the castle.

When the horn sounded, Yamazaki asked everyone to talk together and tell the people in the city about his decision.

All those who resist will become slaves, and all those who do not resist can become commoners, and under the rule of the Gelong family, all commoners whose family property is less than ten gold coins are exempt from paying all taxes, and the time is permanent.

In the name of God, and in the honor of the House of Gelong.

A remark made the people of Dorseo City confused.

The slaves looked at each other, the commoners talked about it, and the top brass looked at who looked like traitors.

It was at this time that the siege began.

There was no catapult, there was a golden eagle of the oil tank, and eight small oil tanks fell from the sky one after another, sprinkling a large piece of oil on the city wall, and burning on its own, with some smoke.

It was Yamazaki who mixed some phosphorus into the oil so as not to get closer to the ignition.

There was not much oil, but it also destroyed the eight city defense crossbows and two catapults on both sides of the city gate, and interfered with a part of the city wall, which was the desired effect.

There are no siege vehicles, but there are siege bears.

The two strongest bears took the opportunity to rush out and go straight to the city gate when there was a gap in the city defenses.

"Shoot! Shoot!"

The city defense crossbow was useless for the time being, but the archers were still there, but those arrows could not stop the two bears at all.

"Qiang! Qiang......"

The two bears rushed to the hole in the city gate, and in the dead corner of the defense, they used their alloy claws to dig the connection between the iron gate and the wall little by little.

On the city wall, the golden eagle Nika once again dropped eight small oil canisters from high in the air, disrupting another defensive area.

The city is panicking, if the city is broken, will it resist or not? This is a serious problem.

Seeing that the gates were about to be dug down, the gates were simply opened, and the army came out, with thick shields.

Yamazaki saw it through Nika the Golden Eagle and took the first step to make the two bears retreat.

The Dorsailan army was divided into three parts, 3,000 archers under the cover of 5,000 infantry, 1,000 heavy cavalry and 3,000 light cavalry, and finally 100 mobile city defense ballistas.

Yamazaki didn't move, and waited for the Dorsai army to get out of the range of the city's crossbows, which allowed the other seventy-eight bears to emerge from the crossbow cavalry.

"Roar!"

Eighty bears in full armor roared in unison, and many of the cavalrymen in the Dorseo army were frightened off their horses, and many of the infantry were frightened off their shields.

Eighty bears charged, and the archers of Dorseo fired, but found that their arrows were useless.

Next came the javelins of the infantry, which were equally useless, and finally the spear formation, which was still useless.

Eighty bears rushed straight into the formation, and they kept rushing all the way, causing Dorcio's army formation to be chaotic, so that many cavalrymen could not control their mounts.

The crossbowmen took the opportunity to shoot and killed and wounded more than a thousand people in one fell swoop at those who had lost their protection, and their armor could not defend them at all.

Seeing this, the Dorsai army blew the horn and charged.

The crossbowmen retreated, winding up as they retreated, ready to use the range to sling their pursuers.

The bears in the formation also turned in a direction, resolutely not entering the range of the mobile city defense ballista.

Golden Eagle Nika airdropped oil canisters again, this time eight small canisters were dropped at the city gate, making it a sea of fire, with thick smoke, blocking the way back.

The morale of the Dorsai army was suddenly a little confused, and there were no people in front of the battle, so they could only be beaten, and if they retreated, they had to go around the city wall to another gate, the distance was too long, and they had to suffer many rounds of crossbow arrows.

And just when they were in a dilemma, the crossbow cavalry reflexively persuaded them to surrender, reiterating their words of persuasion just now, and promising that they would still be civilians who surrendered at this time.

The infantry surrendered, and they knew that they would not have time to return to the city.

The cavalry then surrendered, for the bears found them, and the horses were startled.

In the end, the mobile city defense crossbow convoy also surrendered, they were auxiliaries and were powerless to resist.

With the rebellion of the army, the upper echelons of the city of Dolseo were in chaos, the slaves rebelled, and the general trend of Dolseo City has gone, and now it is not rebelling, when will it wait?......
