"Stop shooting! Save ammo!"

Murphy shouted, smoke obscuring his vision, causing him to lose sight of what was ahead of him and only judge by his feelings.

Just in the interval between the two rows of shooting, he could no longer hear the shouts of killing from the opposite side.

So he deduced that the enemy might have retreated.

Hearing the personal command of His Royal Highness the Prince, the musketeers stopped their movements and carried the arquebus on their shoulders after the last round of their guns were fired.

The cold winter wind quickly blew away the smoke, but carried the smell of gunpowder farther away.

As soon as the smoke cleared, the people on the wall could see what was going on.

I saw that the pile of corpses under the city wall had been piled up to more than three meters high, and there were many people who were hit by the key but were seriously injured but not dead, at this time they were leaning on the corpses of their comrades, pillowing on the cold armor, weakly covering their injured places, and the wounds were still oozing blood from the fingers.

Everywhere there were exploding entrails or horrific corpses.

According to rough estimates, in one night, at least more than 300 new members were added to this purgatory under the city.

"Gross-"

Many of them, including the musketeers, were new recruits, and it was the first time they had participated in such a terrible war, and their stomachs were churning, and they vomited all the undigested dinner they had eaten last night.

"These bunnies, all of them go back to their places!, a bunch of soft eggs!" shouted Knight Ford, looking at the spit recruits, and pointed at them angrily.

"Ford, let them vomit. Simon Knight shook his head with a smile and pressed Ford's hand, "Wasn't it the same when the two of us went to the battlefield? ”

"That's right, don't you hear it! I'll vomit and clean it up for Lao Tzu! Knight Ford felt that Simon's words were not unreasonable, so he turned his head again and gave an order, and then turned his head and went to eat.

Simon smiled as he watched his best friend leave, and although there was a certain age gap between the two, they still established a friendship of steel in their daily lives and the work of protecting the prince.

But then again, what about His Royal Highness? Simon looked around the city walls, but didn't see him.

"I guess it's the same as that group of recruits, I ran to vomit somewhere. Simon shook his head and smiled helplessly.

Simon's guess was accurate, Murphy was sitting on the bed with a barrel in a stone room, spitting profusely.

"Although I watched a lot of cruel war movies when I was on Earth, it wasn't a little bit worse than the feeling of actually facing the battlefield!" Murphy put down the barrel and leaned back with all his strength.

This is Murphy's first experience of a real battlefield, where flesh and blood are flying, blood is splattering, gold and iron are intertwined, and people are dying at every moment, and everyone dies in a different way and in a different way.

"However, after this battle, the enemy should not attack again for a short time, and he can finally have a meal. Murphy let out a long sigh.

It is said that since the enemy began to attack the city yesterday morning, they have not eaten for more than 20 hours, and the successive feints and strong attacks have made everyone extremely tired.

So only a dozen or so soldiers remained on the wall, and all the other troops went into the rest room in the wall of the city wall and fell asleep.

"The people who had been involved in the command, including Snow, had eaten at ten o'clock, and had a meeting in the cabin next to Talket's restaurant. Murphy took a nap and then left the break room, telling the rest guards to hurry up and report the news.

The sky was already clear, and the high-intensity battle lasted for a whole day and night, and the corpses under the three walls combined were enough to build a wall of corpses of the same height as the walls of Fort Lei.

Even in the dead of winter, there are large numbers of scavengers coming from all over the world just to have a full meal.

A dozen knights who had participated in the battle quickly grabbed a few mouthfuls of food, and then hurried down the city wall to the hut not far from the city wall to attend the meeting of His Royal Highness the Prince.

It was a small hut with only one table that could seat more than twenty people, and when everyone came in, they sat down in separate places.

"Are you all here? Let's start a meeting. Murphy came in at last, looked around, and sat down on the throne when he saw that there was no one to lose.

"We've been defending the city for a whole day and a night, and it's really exciting that everyone has won!" Murphy said excitedly, waving his fists, and smiles leaked from the faces of the knights around him.

"But we haven't won yet. Murphy's face darkened, "Although the Thebans have suffered heavy losses, they are far from the point of complete collapse.

"Their army morale and organization are still above the level, and the number of warriors and transcendents is much higher than ours, and a few small victories are not enough, so I want to ask everyone what they think about this. ”

After Murphy's words, there was a silence below.

"I think we can strike while the iron is hot with victory and give the Thebans a night attack. ”

After a while, the Roland Knight was the first to break the silence, and everyone began to discuss.

"Night Raid? Have you considered the disparity in the extraordinary strength of the two sides? Not to mention the fourth-level transcendent Kurumman, can we deal with the one hundred and seventy or eighty second-level knights under him?"

"But we have a musket unit!"

"The musketeers are ordinary people, and after a round of buckshot, there is enough time to reload in between for the enemy knights to rush over and kill them all!"

"Even if we win, we can't be too arrogant, the night attack is complete nonsense, I think we should be conservative and wait for reinforcements. ”

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Soon, everyone reached a consensus, Roland Knight hehe Zhile on the side, he just said that the night attack was actually just a clever statement, seeing that the atmosphere was too depressing, it was just a matter of enlivening the atmosphere.

"Then it was decided that the main policy for the next few days was to defend the city. Murphy tapped on the table, "Now let's talk about how we can hold this city." ”

"I think that while the musketeers are very lethal, our enemies are not stupid, and they should remember it once they were beaten. Simon sat with his hands crossed and his shoulders folded.

"Lord Simon is right, after the enemy has been beaten like this, the next siege will definitely send their transcendent as the vanguard. ”

"It's a pity that the musket is too slow to reload, otherwise it would have been possible to repel the enemy with enchanted buckshot. ”

"That's right, with the speed of the knight's attack, just ten seconds between reloads can change the tide of battle. ”

Everyone talked about it, but without exception, they were all not confident in the musket troops against the knights.

Because they are knights, of course they know the speed of the knights' attacks.

A second-level knight does not ride a horse, and can reach a speed of 100 meters and five seconds under the bonus of fighting spirit, as long as the siege tower advances to the bottom of the city wall and puts down the climbing board, the knights can rush to the wall in less than five seconds and slaughter the troops on the wall.

The knights in the room looked at each other for a moment, and for a moment, no one could solve the problem.

Isn't there no good way?, Murphy lowered his head and looked gloomy, thinking to himself.

"Your Highness, my subordinates have an idea, I don't know if it can be done. ”

At the end of the corner, Snow saw that the surrounding circle of bigwigs fell silent, and weakly raised his hand and spoke.

"It's okay to have your own ideas and say it, you don't have to be restrained. Murphy waved for Snow to continue.

"Yes, Your Highness. Snow coughed and pondered his own language, "Actually, the loading of the arquebus is not difficult, His Highness taught it casually a few times, and the soldiers figured it out after two hours of pondering."

"And there are at least four or five hundred arquebuses idle in the city, and we can temporarily train four or five hundred civilians to help the gunners reload and then fire them, so that the speed of the arquebuses can be increased from two to ten rounds per minute, which can greatly improve the efficiency of the arquebuses. ”

"That's a good idea!".

Murphy nodded with satisfaction and waved his big hand: "Just follow Snow's method, so that you can completely suppress the enemy." ”

Murphy said he would do it, and directly drafted the decree, and the order was issued to each group of five, and it was still one point: with the new musketeers as the center, and the crossbowmen as the main force, they fought a defensive battle with the enemy until reinforcements arrived.
