Chapter 344: Ancient Castle Strategy (1) (Page 1/1)
The morning in Guwei Harbor is quiet and quiet, and a few sailing boats are parked in the harbor. This place, which has not been in war for a long time, let alone the daily patrol of the sea, even the port defense force is so weak that it is almost none.
The chief of the guard stayed at the prostitution hall all night and did not return all night, and the soldiers at the harbor lookout simply did the same, left their posts, and went to find a place to make up for sleep.
The huge fleet of ships from Twilight City, in such an environment, swaggered into the harbor. The fleet was getting closer and closer to the mouth of the bay, and there was no one to stop or warn from beginning to end.
It was not until the angle of the ship broke through the barricade of the berth and rushed directly onto the plank road that a loud sound spread throughout the port area, and the sleeping sentinels were awakened, rubbing their sour eyes, and when they saw one group after another of soldiers, stepping on the ground from the laid down gangplank, with a hellish look on their faces, their mouths wide open enough to stuff an egg.
As more and more warriors gathered at the port, the alarm bell on the watchtower finally sounded, and the entire ancient city was disturbed by the sharp and piercing shouts.
"The enemy has invaded from the sea!"
"The enemy's fleet is out of sight, and the entire harbor has been blocked!"
"The enemy army is the Kingdom of Connaught, they have bypassed the Northern Sea and launched an attack on us!"
True and false information is like a scoop of water in a boiling oil pot, which plunges the entire city into complete chaos. As a result, the landing force had been mostly assembled in the harbor, and the Ulsters had not yet launched any attacks.
Todd was a little surprised by the good situation in front of him, in his opinion, the port landing battle should be a rather tragic battle, but it only took twenty minutes for Twilight's army to completely control the entire port.
"According to the original plan, the 1st Army attacked the port guard battalion, the 2nd Army blocked the exit of the inner city, and the 3rd Army advanced along the street to the city gate!"
After giving this order, Todd turned over and mounted the griffon, and nodded to the other nine people who were ready to go: "Let's go!"
Ten manned griffons flapped their wings and flew into the sky, clutching huge wooden crates on their claws.
Flying over the city, chaotic and noisy crowds can be seen everywhere in the streets and on the terraces.
Todd looked at the location of the wall in the distance, estimated the distance and time, and then led the other nine people towards the city gate.
The gates of the ancient city are designed with old-fashioned double winch gates, which are sturdy but more cumbersome to use.
It only takes one person to release the winch to lower the gate, but to raise the gate, it takes at least four people to push a circular hinge.
Ten griffons flew above the gates, slowly descending to the ground as stunned defenders watched, first lowering the claws on their claws and waiting for the passengers on their backs to roll over.
Standing in the passage of the urn inside the city gate, not far behind him was the winch of the city gate, and in front of him was the square of the city gate barracks. He looked at the enemy soldiers around him who seemed to have been under the immobilization spell, and unhurriedly drew his weapon.
At this time, an enemy finally remembered and shouted: "Enemy attack!"
Todd tied the handle of the shield to his wrist and said in a deep voice, "Evie, you take someone to occupy the winch room!" Jerry, you and I will hold the corridor together and block the enemy's reinforcements!"
The passage leading to the winch frame at the top of the gate is only two meters wide, and without considering long-range weapons, it is completely capable of "one man is not open".
Looking at the ten people who fell from the sky, they divided a part to attack the winch room, and even the stupid enemy knew what was going on.
"Attack! Rush forward, you must not let them control the winch!" a man who looked like a commander shouted at Todd and the others.
The soldiers guarding the gates rushed to the tunnel in a frenzy, and every one of them had heard about the port and understood what would happen if these men were allowed to capture the gates.
Todd struck the soldier at the front with a shield blow, and with the sound of a shattered skull, he stretched out his right foot and kicked the hapless man down the stairs, knocking down countless enemy soldiers.
Jerry's attack is much simpler, the weapon he uses is a folding dragon lance used to resist the charge of heavy cavalry, all of which are more than four meters long when fully deployed, with the assistance of natural strength and keel, the dragon spear weighing 100 catties is in his hand, as light and flexible as a bamboo pole.
A shot passed, and a group of people were swept to the ground, and another shot was smashed, and even the heavy infantry in armor were smashed and their brains were splashed.
Finally, there are the Valkyries, whose movements in battle are less like fighting for their lives and more like dancing, and no matter what weapon the enemy uses, such as swords, flails, and iron spears, they are always able to use the slightest movement to avoid every attack of the enemy. In the same way, when they attack, they are always able to assess factors such as terrain, wind direction, position, distance, etc., and launch the deadliest attack with the least risk.
Todd watched these Valkyries move and couldn't help but think of their ability, Time Lag. Ability to slow the flow of time to one-tenth or even one-fiftieth of its original speed.
To these Valkyries, the world is like space in slow motion, the speed at which the blade of a sword slashes is as slow as a snail crawling, and the trajectory of the spearhead in the air can easily determine the point and strength of the landing.
The battle lasted for a long time, and Todd and his party, who were in charge of holding back the enemy, did not even have a single wound, but the guards had more than thirty dead and wounded, and the dead bodies were piled up in the front of the road, and it was difficult to find even a place to put their feet.
The city gate commander finally couldn't stand it anymore, and dozens of archers were mobilized at the entrance of the Yongdao, and arrows like flying locusts pounced on Todd and the others.
The dragon bone armor on the little Jerry and the Valkyries began to stretch out countless parasite limbs, entrenched in front of everyone and tied into solid shields.
The arrow struck the "insect shield", making a tinkling sound like a rainstorm of pear blossoms, but in the end it did not cause any damage.
The frenzied commander of the city gate ordered a small bed crossbow to be rolled out of the armory and aimed in the direction of the corridor.
Todd looked at the iron crossbow bolt that was a meter long and as thick as a thumb, and sank into his face, and for the first time a solemn look appeared on his face.
"Get out of the way! The armor of the keel can't fight against this weapon!" Todd shook aside the people in front of him, looked at the siege weapon that was ready to attack, and walked to the front of the line without fear.
With the commander's order, the huge iron crossbow with terrifying kinetic energy made a huge cracking sound in the air, and it was going straight towards Todd's face.
To the commander's surprise, a huge black monster suddenly appeared in the corridor, one hand firmly grasping the tip of the crossbow, and a cold white frost looming in its mouth.
At this moment, there was a loud bang in the winch room, and the gate hanging high in the air slammed into the ground. This scene officially means that Guwei City has turned away all reinforcements.
