Everyone in the military tent was in a panic, they didn't expect Arte to suddenly rebuke, no wonder he wanted to transfer all the direct elites back to Fort Gennet, now the entire garrison camp is under the control of Arte's blade, no one dares to confront him here, even if he is just a frontier baron.

Everyone in the camp has been passive and sluggish to varying degrees, and if Art wants to be beheaded because of this, I'm afraid there will be few heads in the camp that will be left until tomorrow.

The heavily armored soldiers were still standing around the tent, and the sound of the soldiers drawing their swords could be heard outside the tent.

Everyone in the tent sat motionless, for fear that the heavily armored soldiers would suddenly smash their heads with their hammers.

Viscount Jörn was also very embarrassed for a while, he was the nominal commander of the siege army, and the long-term inability of Fort Genet to take place was also related to his poor command and control, and his lax rewards and punishments.

Viscount Jörn broke the silence, "Art, there are Swabian elites stationed in Genetburg, and there are a large number of bows, crossbows, arrows and fire oil stones in the city, so it is indeed difficult to attack for a while......"

Art slashed at Viscount Jörn, "Viscount Jörn, it is true that Gerneburg is difficult to fight, if it can be taken as easily as Schwabian can take Venefort from our border army, why should I spend a million Fennig to recruit various armies?" ”

"And if you take my money, you should do things for me, I don't expect everyone to be as strong as the Swabian army, but at least not now! Morris is only the most excessive, Sir Nathan, from half a month ago to now, you have sent a total of thirty soldiers to the city, and the rest are helping to make and push the siege equipment. You have fifty elite frontier troops under you, fifty! You get an elite salary from me, but you do odd jobs! Ten days ago, because you did not follow the orders to increase the troops on the Western Wall, the soldiers who had already landed on the Western Wall were all killed by the Swabians. ”

"Six days ago, the southern city of Fort Gennet was empty of defenses, and Sir Otto ordered your troops to immediately seize the southern wall, but you refused to enter the city for a long time, so you missed the opportunity to break the southern city."

"If it weren't for the fact that you left a few corpses in front of you three days ago, you would definitely be the one who was beheaded today!" Yat said sharply.

Outside, the screams and howls of Morris before he was killed came to an abrupt end with a loud cry and the crisp cracking of the heavy axe's flesh and bones.

Cold sweat broke out on everyone's foreheads, and Viscount Jonn became more and more uneasy.

Cutting the generals before the battle is really a last resort.

Art looked around, everyone was terrified, and everyone in the tent had no intention of resisting, so he waved back the heavy infantry standing around the tent, leaving only a few guards.

Everyone was slightly relieved when they saw the heavily armored soldiers who had killed Tengteng withdraw from the camp.

Art also eased his emotions, walked to the side of the lord Viscount Jonn and said loudly to everyone: "Tomorrow, I will personally command the attack on Fort Genet, the army under my command will be the main attack on the western wall, and the border army will be divided into two divisions, the north and the south, and feint to attack the north and south walls respectively."

"Military order, the army that landed first in the city can take half of the spoils captured after capturing Fort Gennet!"

"Military order, tomorrow's combat soldier officer will kill an enemy soldier's head in exchange for a reward of one hundred pfennig."

Coercion and temptation, Yate killed the passive slacking people and began to stir people's hearts with heavy rewards and profits.

Sure enough, after saving their heads, everyone in the tent was immediately aroused by Yat's heavy reward, and they clenched their fists and palms, and a shout sounded.

Art turned his head and raised his glass and touched a glass with the silent Jon, "Viscount Jon, one hundred ordinary soldiers under your command are included in the South Wall Army, and I also ask you to lead twenty elites under your command to supervise the battle in the rear of the South City tomorrow, if there are people who retreat in fear of the battle, they will be killed on the spot from the baron down!" ”

Jon looked at Art for a long time, and when he saw that Art was firm, he nodded helplessly.

On the fourth day of the first month of the New Year, the snow suddenly stopped, and the wind was bitter.

Outside the eastern border town of Fort Gené, an important border town in the eastern part of Burgundy, dozens of flags of various colors hunted in the cold wind.

The southwest and north sides of the castle were already full of Burgundian troops about to attack the city, the west city was the main attack, and the two infantry regiments led by Arte led the direct army, heavy armor, bows, crossbows, Deadpool and a small number of miscellaneous soldiers were responsible for labor, and two large trebuchets gathered outside the west city, six small trebuchets, two siege towers, and twelve ladders and a city breaker, and the cost of these siege equipment around Fort Gennet alone exceeded 100,000 fennig, and these siege equipment were used by some low-ranking officers under the command of miscellaneous soldiers.

The southern city consisted of 500 eastern border troops, and the lord of Bramont, Viscount Joon, personally commanded the town and made a feint.

Beicheng is composed of five hundred eastern border troops, jointly commanded by two local barons, one of whom has the strongest power and the strongest command and combat ability among all border commanders, and the elite cavalry in the light and heavy mixed cavalry team is under the command of this baron, so he is the actual commander of Beicheng, because Beicheng has the existence of this baron, as an auxiliary attack, it can also be turned into the main attack at a critical moment.

On the gentle slope of the hill three miles east of Fort Genet, nearly 100 light and heavy cavalry stepped on the snow to guard against an unlikely enemy in the southeast, and the hot air from the horses instantly turned into white mist and the fog in the rider's nostrils drifted in the cold wind.

This was the deployment of all the forces of the decisive battle of Fort Gennet, and he gathered almost all the forces at his disposal here.

Before the attack, Art sent people to persuade Swabian to surrender to the city, and in the face of a siege enemy ten times their size, the Swabian defenders were obviously also afraid, they did not expect the Burgundians to attack the castle after the heavy snowfall.

In the face of Arte's persuasion, they were moved, but the Count of Landy had already ordered that once they lost Fort Gennet, all the officers and soldiers in the city who remained in Swabian would be killed, and for the sake of their wives and children, the Swabians in the city had to resist stubbornly, hoping that the reinforcements of the Count of Landi could kill the Burgundian before the castle was captured......

Persuasion failed, and Art ordered the whole army to attack.

First up is the appearance of trebuchets.

Fifteen or sixteen light and heavy trebuchets from three directions of attack threw stones of various sizes at the ruined outer walls of Fort Genet.

The sixty-pound boulder was carried by two miscellaneous soldiers into the giant trebuchet pocket that was pulled down by the winch, and a strong man with a heavy hammer nodded to several miscellaneous soldiers, and with a loud shout, knocked the hammer on the trebuchet's lock pin, and the elastic bag quickly swung under the drive of the counterweight bucket, and the elastic bag reached the apex and broke away and was thrown out, and flew towards the wall of Fort Gennet in a long arc.

The boulder smashed into several petals on the high stone wall, and the powder burst into a white mist.

The boulder failed to smash through the outer wall of the Renefort, but the exploding pieces of debris struck a Swabian soldier who was hiding behind the battlements and tried to look up, smashing his ear into a pulp.
