Chapter 306: Tragic Attack and Defense

The city of Braun is vast and sparsely populated, the walls of the whole city are wide, and the third and seventh regiments of the fourth division of the cherry blossom kingdom still feel that there is a shortage of manpower, so they divide their troops into three directions, namely the east, west and north of the Chen soldiers, which are even more stretched. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the surface, this method of dividing troops seems to be ignorant, but in fact it has another profound meaning. The 4th Division was understaffed, and the defenders in the city of Braun were even more understaffed!

If the men of the Fourth Division are in one place, the city of Braun can also become a monolithic plate and concentrate on defense. Where the walls are already so large, there are only a limited number of people to defend and attack.

If Chen soldiers are in one place and everyone is piled together, the quantitative effect will have an effect, and at the beginning of the siege, the comparison of forces between the two sides will be leveled to a certain extent. Even because of the terrain advantage of the defenders, the people of the Fourth Division will suffer some losses.

But if Chen soldiers are in three places, the forces of the Sakura Kingdom are certainly stretched.

However, in the city of Braun, it had to be forced to divide the troops with the division of troops from the besieging side, which made it more difficult to distribute the troops.

After the division of troops, the Fourth Division can even fully deploy the whole line at different levels, and mobilize the superiority of a large number of generals to the greatest extent.

Once this happens, the relatively small number of defenders will be exponentially more difficult to defend the city, and the slightest negligence of the defenders will be attacked by the wide-angle siege side and fall into a dangerous situation.

Not only that, but the benefits of a multi-sided siege will also multiply the pressure on the defender's defensive equipment and logistics, and there will always be a few stampers that lack equipment, and these things will accumulate into a lot, and the troops made of iron will collapse.

On the other hand, this time the commander of the besieging side added an additional mobile battalion in addition to dividing the army into three units.

This battalion is all a siege battalion composed of battlefield elites, and it is not limited to a certain siege wall, and can walk casually in the south, south, north, west, and north. This is actually an extension of the strategy of the commander of the Sakura Kingdom to fight more and fight less, and defeat the weak with the strong.

When the moon was in the sky, the blood and enthusiasm were coldly extinguished. The siege, which lasted all day, came to an end. The raging flames of war burned in the night, and from a distance, it looked like a ghost fire floating in the air.

When night falls, the wolves of the mountains and forests bark one after another at the moon. The lights in the camp tent of the commander of the 3rd Regiment of the 4th Division of the Sakura Kingdom remained unturned all night, and the figures were crowded......

The next morning, before dawn, the general stepped on his horse in chain mail, and the army of the Sakura Kingdom was ready to blow the horn of attack—the beginning of a new day, a new round of siege warfare began.

……

Pisa, the lord of the city of Braun, stood on the city wall in swarthy light armor, looking at the fiery red sea of armor.

The middle-aged man's face was tough and indifferent, his right hand was holding on to the rough and cold city wall, and his gaze crossed the dazzling red sea square. Farther away, the big guy who almost brought the city down yesterday was being pushed slowly into the battlefield.

The hand placed by the commander of the city of Braun on the bricks of the city wall subconsciously tightened, but his face remained unchanged, and his eyes were level at the angry army that was gradually approaching. After a long time, he felt a slight chill coming from the bricks. After a while, he looked up and saw something floating down in the air: Oh, it was raining.

He blinked, opened his mouth and muttered to himself. This is rare good news for Braun City.

Time continued to advance, and a surging red blade crashed against the cold old stone walls. The archers on the ramparts, seizing the short gap in time, drew their bows and shot arrows desperately - at this distance, they could stand up straight and rain arrows with pleasure.

The bandages on the shoulders fluttered in the air, and someone's arm was shot through yesterday, and after a night of trimming, the arrow was removed, and the poison was eliminated with liquor, and it was wrapped casually, and today it climbed to the top of the city. His eyes were red, as if he was about to launch something out of his body.

This was a battle of life and death between the city and its people, and Pisa had done a very good job of mobilizing soldiers on the battlefield. He deliberately publicized and exaggerated the murderous and bloodthirsty nature of the invading army, cited several real examples of the slaughter of the city after being captured by the invading army, and even printed an atlas and posted it wantonly in the city, deliberately highlighting the enemy's inhumanity and the distress and helplessness of the people after the city was destroyed.

Such atlases are everywhere, and one of them depicts a captured village.

The image shows an ugly-looking middle-aged soldier in front of a smoke-emitting farmhouse, naked and swooping on top of a woman.

The woman was cloaked in hair and her expression was extremely pained, as if she was crying out. And behind her, there are homes that have fallen out of fire and children nailed by a spear to a smoke-blackened wall......

Similar images are endless.

In the same context, such things can often stimulate the bloodshed of those who still have fighting spirit, and make people feel the same hatred and righteous indignation.

Pisa, on the other hand, paid great attention to the 'degree' of propaganda, and while publicizing the inhumanity of the invading army, it often assisted the inhumane victory and the number of enemies killed. Let people be honored. Not to be afraid of war.

At the same time, Pisa constantly emphasizes the fact that their reinforcements are about to arrive, leaving room for hope in life.

After such a public opinion guidance, everyone will feel that the invading army does not leave people a way to live, is murderous, inhumane, and brutal......

But...... It's not brutal and tyrannical enough.

So under this strange psychology, most people are actually thinking that the Fourth Division of the Sakura Empire, a group of guys who don't know the height of the sky and the earth, are coming to slaughter the mountains and rivers and kill my family. Our good men in Bolang City are not easy to bully, they are all fleshy, why should we listen to you, we will beat you away......

This peculiar hatred and hope was planted in the hearts of most of the soldiers like a contagion, catalyzing unimaginable spiritual support for the days of defending the city—there were still people behind them, and they couldn't fall. These soldiers killed many people, and although many of the brothers fell forever, they saw the same or more enemies fall in the palm of their hands. There will be a strange hearty feeling in my heart: revenge, this is the most direct and bloody revenge for the brothers-in-arms......

However, even then, it is only a one-sided feeling...... But for Braun City, there is still some positive orientation and necessity. But for the judgment of the strong and the weak, the cold situation with a clear distinction between the high and the low is not beneficial.

The commander in light armor was shouting loudly on the front line of the city wall, and in the chaos of the battlefield, he pulled up a new soldier who had been paralyzed to the ground in fright, and did not have the strength to count anything, but just stuffed him back into the battlements of the wall......

The enemy archers slowly approached their predetermined positions behind the shield-wielding shields, and they fought back ferociously through the gaps that were exposed when the shields were pulled.

The arrow pierced a one-eyed sword-wielding soldier, and the archers at the head of the city retreated en masse into the battlements before the corpse fell, in the commander's angry slogan.

They also began to fight back with cover.

The burning flames bloomed into red spots on the city walls, and in the early morning in the small town of Braun, the rain was pouring down, but something had already burned in the rain and could not be extinguished......

"Catapult No. 3, tighten the ...... Put! ”

After a dense rain of arrows, a dense crowd once again buried the blank area full of corpses. The catapults outside the city were busy loading one by one outside the range of the defenders' rain of arrows.

On the side of the Sakura Kingdom, there is an extremely powerful group of firearms-based magic energy, and the arrows stained with fire oil shot by the soldiers are enchanted with sticking attributes, and almost wherever the flames are touched, they will burn.

The stone of the catapult is an irregular body, hollowed out by the soldiers in advance, and filled with fire oil.

In the billowing smoke, the hideous tendons of catapults and the creaking of solid wood were buried in a shout of killing. Thick smoke and flames broke through the lonely rain curtain of early autumn and smashed heavily on the city walls, between the plank roads, and within the city walls......

The figure in armor was smashed into flesh by a stone bullet, and the people in front of him and behind him were swept away by the unstoppable aftermath of the stone, and in the huge wave of air, the people lifted by the rubble and flames turned on their backs.

The human body burned on the city wall, and someone howled miserably and broke the lower half of his body, and after the firelight, he dragged the lower half of his body forward miserably......

The siege infantry under the city moved desperately forward under the cover of aerial fire, and on the city walls, someone roared out of the battlements and poured a rain of bows and arrows downward.

Ladders were erected, and the dexterous Sakura people held a shield in one hand and climbed the rope with the other hand to move up dexterously.

Above their heads was a sky of smoke. And under the sky, soldiers in black helmets and black armor pulled themselves desperately in the rain of flames and arrows, holding iron pots with hot oil and huge stones in their hands, and smashed down the ladder.

The human body fell from the top of the ladder like a grasshopper strung together. Some of the people in the city were crushed to death by heavy objects falling from the sky, and some soldiers broke their spines as a result, but behind them, more dense soldiers rushed into the narrow wooden passages......

Approaching the eastern wall, the bespectacled veteran roared and flew a ladder full of people.

The ladder had been standing here for some time, and there were people below it holding on to the foundation of the ladder with shields in an attempt to hold it firm.

Hot oil, arrows, and stones from the top of the city continued to crash from the top of the city walls into the crowd below, and some people were slumped down and struggled to get up. And more people can only fall to the ground quietly, unable to get up again.

Then above the city walls, the soldiers in silver armor were pushed down, and the heavy armor smashed through the string of shields below. The bespectacled veteran took the opportunity to overturn the ladder......

Not far from the veteran, a demon can make a 'fly' on the city wall and stomp on the city. He is an agile magician, and his movements are chic and neat, and when he climbs the wall, he only uses the power of the ladder once. However, as soon as he stood firm on the head of the city, he was pierced into a sieve by a dense number of spear heads. Someone popped up from behind the gun, mouth opening and closing: stupid. Force.

The sound of 'Boom' came from the air again, and the heavily armored soldiers looked up to see four smoke-emitting stones over the dense figures beneath the city walls. One smashed on the city wall, and the entire wall was shaking and cracking. The remaining three fell into the city.

In the city of Braun, a general who rode a tall horse to guide the logistics team was hit on the spot by a rolling boulder, and even the people and horses were fiercely pierced through the ground......

The roar radiated to the ground more than ten meters wide, and the hot oil dripped everywhere, splashing into the air into a firework-like sphere.

Cracks cracked in the walls and floor, and everything in sight burned.

Farther away, children stood on the edge of the flames, grinning and crying......
