Bonfires lit up all night in the forest, and the sound of cutting trees and making wooden ladders to climb the city, as well as the shouts of officers scolding lazy soldiers, reached Alsburg far away, and the mountain bandits who were cowering in the fort were a little nervous, but they were not worried that the soft eggs who had returned under the fort gate several times had the courage to face huge battle damage. Because in one winter, they have built Alsburg into a strong fortress.

In the open ground between the dense forest and Alsburg, nine figures were moving around the right side of Alsburg in the dark.

According to the plan agreed between Yat and Baron Antayas, Yat will lead the elite soldiers in the patrol team to take advantage of the cover of night to carry a light wooden ladder around the side and rear of Alsburg to lurk, while Baron Antayas will storm the front with a large group of men and horses and a hurried wooden ladder before sunrise in the early morning when the enemy is most sleepy. Arter will lead the lurking soldiers to force their way through the wooden wall on the right, penetrate the enemy's heart, disturb the hearts of the soldiers in the fort, and wait for the opportunity to open the gate for the group to attack the wooden fort.

Art selected three people from the patrol team, Otto, Bass, and Ron, three of Tuba's combat team, and two other soldiers who had participated in the ambush of Winston Manor and were wounded, a total of nine people, and temporarily formed a raid team, which was the most effective soldier in the patrol team, each of them was a person who had experienced the battle formation, with strong attack power and good defensive ability.

In order to facilitate the sneak attack, except for Art, who carried a riding bow, the rest of the people only carried a round shield and an armed sword, or a battle axe, a page hammer, a chain flail and other weapons, and Baron Antayas took off a few pieces of leather armor from his city guards and temporarily distributed them to the few people who participated in the sneak attack, so that each of them had at least one leather armor to protect themselves.

Sneaking behind a boulder, the wooden wall of Alsburg had appeared in front of the Yates, and through the night they could even see the silhouette of the mountain bandits standing guard on the wooden wall.

When they got here, they could no longer bend down and walk, so under Art's order, everyone lay on the ground and crawled towards the wooden fort step by step, and their every movement was very cautious, once they made a noise and disturbed the sentry post on the wall, their plan to sneak attack was useless.

Less than a hundred yards away, the group climbed close to a meal, maybe Yat's voice was really small, or maybe the noise in the dense forest was too loud, until the nine people touched the corner of the wall, and the mountain bandits standing on the wall and watching the guard did not find a few people. So they lay down in the grass under the wooden wall and rested with bated breath, not daring to make a sound......

Spring nights aren't too cold, but there's still a late winter feel in the air. Waiting was the greatest torment, and the few people who had been lurking under the wooden walls for most of the night were already cold and numb, and they prayed for the dawn to come soon.

The sky finally began to have some vague bright colors, and as a touch of fish belly white appeared in the eastern sky, the army of bandits in the dense forest finally began to move, and eighty or ninety soldiers roared towards Alsburg with five or six hurried wooden ladders.

The sentries on the right wall of Alsburg were attracted by the loud noise coming from the front door, and they all turned their heads to look at the main entrance, and after a while, a guy who looked like a small leader came and asked the mountain bandits on the right wall to send half of their men to the main gate to defend against the enemy's attack.

"My lord, isn't it time for us to act?" Otto whispered to Art.

Art pricked up his ears to carefully read the sound coming from the frontal battlefield, according to the agreement, once the Baron led the team around the pit barrier and arrived at the gate, the horn would be blown, ostensibly to order the troops to attack the city, but in fact to send a signal to the Yat and the others.

…………

There were still two mountain bandits on the wooden wall on the right side at this time, and the rest were all transferred to the front to defend against the "tide" of enemies.

The two mountain bandits on the wooden wall, armed with crude long knives and dressed in short linen clothes, glanced at the flank from a distance, and after making sure that there was no possibility of the enemy attacking the right side, they turned around and stood on tiptoe and watched intently at the lively scene in full swing in the front direction, listening to the sound of the enemy screaming and killing under the wooden wall.

Suddenly, a low horn sounded, and the general attack on the main gate began.

The hearts of the two bandits on the right wall were pinched, and they prayed in their hearts that the brothers in front of them would defend themselves against the enemy's offensive.

The two on the wooden wall didn't notice that a wooden ladder had been silently erected at the edge of the wooden wall behind them......

Art's mouth dagger jumped up the wooden wall along the ladder first, jumped behind a mountain bandit, took the dagger in his mouth, and slashed his neck, and the thick blood spurted out from the deep wound on the mountain bandit's neck, and the other post was also pressed to the ground by Otto who followed closely and stabbed him a few times.

Everything that happened on the wooden-walled battle path on the right was partially obscured by the thatched roof against the wall, and it was impossible to notice it from several other directions unless you put your head out and put your feet on it.

After clearing the sentry post on the fort wall, he glanced around, and made sure that the main force of the mountain bandits was attracted by the huge attack from the front, Yate gave way to the narrow battle path, and several people on the wooden ladder also jumped over the wall and jumped on the battle path and followed the wooden ladder to sneak into Alsburg.

Yate led the way with a few people behind him, dodging a few groups of mountain bandits in front of him, and under the cover of the fort wall and thatched huts, he touched towards the main gate from the right side......

Time pushed forward, and the terrifying noise outside the main gate before the horn sounded had already woken up the mountain bandits in the fort, and they had been waiting for this day for a long time.

In front of a two-story lord's wooden house in the center of Alsburg Village, the hideous-looking mountain bandit leader wore a piece of chain mail taken from the former lord, wore a barrel helmet, and stood at the door of the wooden house with a knight's heavy sword, commanding and dispatching his minions to defend against the enemy. There were already more than twenty mountain bandits on the wall less than one hundred and fifty feet in front of the wooden fort, so he felt that those guys who were desperately attacking the city would have to be defeated and return home.

In fact, although the plan was only a feint, but Baron Antayas still invested the main offensive force, his inner knight Druid personally led eighteen guards to defend the city with spears and axes and round shields to attack desperately, but the mountain bandits concentrated their forces to defend the front, stones and arrows flew all over the sky, the siege soldiers were just close to the wall and were injured by arrows, and after killing two soldiers on the spot, the druid had to drag several wounded soldiers under the wall to retreat.

The first offensive failed.

Behind the siege team, Baron Antayas, who was on horseback, knew from the first round of attacks that the strong attack was no longer possible, and he had to hope that Yate's surprise attack would succeed. Without further ado, he nodded to one of the guards beside him, who took out the horn at his waist and blew a low horn sound......

After a short period of repair, the second round of the attack of the army outside Alsburg began, this time it was a real feint, so the second round of siege was led by the knights and the servants themselves, several knights were wearing heavy and thick armor and helmets, although this outfit was not very suitable for the siege, but the arrows and stones could not easily hurt them.

The frontal battlefield was in a stalemate, the attackers could not go up the wall, and the defenders could not hit the wooden ladder.

When the front wall was hot, Yat in the fort had just touched the back of a wooden house more than twenty paces away from the right side of the main entrance, and behind him, Otto and his party were holding swords, axes, and shields, and half-squatting against the wall of the wooden house, trying their best to hide their figures.

In front of the wooden house was an open space, where five or six bandits were carrying stones and boiled dung to the wooden wall, and the bandits on the wall took the stones and carried the hot dung water to the enemies who had ascended to the city.

The wooden gate of Alsburg is in front of the open space where the water is burning, and the inside of the fort gate is held up by a thick wooden pole, where five spear-wielding bandits are guarded.

With his bow in hand, Art turned his head to look at the few people behind him, nodded, and then drew a heavy arrow and put it on the bowstring to aim at the target at the fort gate.

Sou~

Heavy arrows flew over the head of a bandit who was bending down to lift rocks, brushed the ears of a minion who had poured dung into an iron pot, and burrowed into the back of a small leader at the gate of the fort.

"Ahh A sharp pain from the sudden blow to his back made the soles of the little leader's feet weak, and he fell to the ground with a stumble, foaming blood from his mouth.

A minion next to the little boss looked sideways at the fallen guy beside him, puzzled, and was about to turn his head, when another arrow came straight into his face, and with the crisp sound of the bridge of his nose shattering, the minion plopped up to the sky and fell to the ground.

After being shot down two people in a row, the bandits at the gate of the fort woke up, but seven or eight guys with swords, axes and round shields had already rushed out from behind the wooden house.

"Scatter Kill!"

With an order, Yate took the bow and drew his sword and took the lead in rushing towards the wooden door, passing by a mountain bandit who had just put down the stone and was about to pull out the short sword on his waist, he suddenly waved the knight's sword in his hand and slashed across the waist of the mountain bandit, only to hear a "tear" sound of the sharp blade cutting into the skin cracking, the belly of the mountain bandit was cut by the waist, and the yellow and green intestines and internal organs fell out in an instant. Before the screams of the Bellybreaker could be heard, Yate had already knocked down another bandit with an axe.

At this time, Odo's men also raised their shields and rushed over with swords and axes to join the battle for the fortress gate.

Known as the "Heavy Hammer", Bass was a standout performer in this raid, holding a round shield in one hand and a hammer in the other, roaring into the enemy's ranks, smashing the bandits with a hammer to the left and right, causing the bandits to collapse their noses and brains and fly with plasma. Due to the special structure of the chain hammer, the shield in the hands of the mountain bandits could not resist at all, and Bass, who had mastered the use of the chain hammer, always raised half a foot, and the wooden handle of the chain hammer hit the upper edge of the enemy's shield, and the spiked heavy iron ball at the other end of the chain smashed into the enemy's head under the huge inertia, smashing out a brain of red and white things......

Prepared for the unprepared, the raiding side can always take advantage, and after a round of raids, four or five mountain bandits have fallen in the open space in front of the fort gate. However, as the battle continued, the mountain bandits who had survived the initial panic reacted under the leadership of the bandit leader, and five or six mountain bandits came one after another on the fort wall and in the wooden fort, plus the few surviving mountain bandits at the fort gate resisted desperately, and there were casualties among the soldiers who participated in the raid.

Seeing that there were more and more rescuers coming behind him, and the mountain bandits at the fort gate were still resisting, Art was anxious for a while, and after blocking a battle axe cut by him, he yelled at Otto and Bass, who were fighting with the mountain bandits at the fort gate: "Form a contradictory line array to block the enemy behind, and hand over the fort gate to me." ”

Otto raised his foot and kicked back a mountain bandit, pulling Bas back to direct the Tuba men to shrink into an arc-shaped shield formation, separating the fort gate from the mountain bandits who were reinforcing behind.

Art also turned around, took off the round shield from his back, and charged towards the remnants of the enemy at the fort gate. Ron, who was stabbed in the chest, saw that Art was one against three at the fort gate, and quickly pulled a soldier next to him to his shield to replace him, and then reflexively joined Art in the battle to seize the door.

There were more and more mountain bandits in front of the shield array, and the shield array commanded by Odo was repeatedly compressed, and soon the shield array and Atroon were crowded together.

Knowing that once the fortress gate was lost, the mountain bandit who could not save his life showed his courage not to fear death, and the knight's sword in Art's hand slashed again and again, but the mountain bandit at the fortress gate took advantage of the length of the short spear in his hand to block and stab......

Outside the gate of the fort, the sound of the retreating soldiers sounded, and the knights and servants who had ascended the city began to lead the peasants down the wooden ladder. As the pressure on the wall was reduced, the mountain bandits on the wooden wall began to pour down the wall, and the pressure on the Yate people increased sharply.

If the gate of the fort cannot be captured, several people in the fort will surely die here.

At the critical moment, Arte didn't care about the tip of a spear that was inserted diagonally, took a half-step back and raised his shield to block it, and jumped towards a mountain bandit in front of him and pounced on him and pressed him down, while the other mountain bandit saw that Art's back was exposed, raised a short spear and stabbed it upward. At the last moment, Ron, who had just forced back a mountain bandit, dropped his sword and shield, stepped forward with open arms, hugged the mountain bandit who was about to raise his spear and stabbed him, and fell backwards to the ground.

After Yate pounced on the bandit, he swung his right hand at the door of his opponent, and after a while, the bandit collapsed and his face was dripping with blood.

Ignoring Ron, who was rolling and pinching another bandit, Art picked up the round shield that had fallen to the ground and smashed it at the bandit who had just been forced back by Ron......

In the shield array, Odo's roar rang out, and as the big bandit leader in chain mail joined in reinforcements, their shield array could no longer resist......

Outside the fort gate, Kazak, who had finished the escalator to cover the siege, did not retreat to a safe distance, and he commanded a dozen patrol soldiers around him to raise their shields and huddle at the fort gate despite the stones and arrows falling from the fort wall, because he had already seen through the gap in the fort gate that they were fighting to seize the gate.

Baron Antaas also sensed the disturbance at the fort gate, and he quickly ordered the repaired city guards to rush towards the fort gate again with their shields raised above the top under the leadership of the druids.

At the same time, in the cave of the fort gate, Art had already stabbed the last standing bandit to death with a short spear he had picked up, and he bypassed Ron, who was on the ground and strangled the enemy's neck with his arm, and went straight to the fort gate and raised the wooden pole of the top gate.

Kazak, who was waiting outside the fort gate, saw Art's movements through the crack in the door, smashed open the fort gate, and led a dozen patrol soldiers to rush in and join Odo's shield array......

The gate of the fort has been opened, but the brigade has not been able to enter all, because the leader of the mountain bandits has already led nearly twenty mountain bandit minions to block the entrance of the wooden fort and form another "human wall".

Success or failure in this move, Art, who was already a little out of strength, took a half breath, grabbed the sword and shield on the ground, pulled up Ron, who was pressed by the corpse of the strangled mountain bandit, and joined Odo's shield array.

At the gate of the fort fell into a stalemate again, at this time, half of the defensive force on the head of the wooden fort wall was drawn to the fort gate to form a "human wall", Baron Antaas, who was dispatched in the center outside the fort, did not continue to add troops to the stalemate fort gate, he seized the gap of the fort wall defense emptiness, and decisively ordered the knights and servants on standby next to him to take off their armor and go into battle to take the fort wall desperately.

"Kill a mountain bandit, and reward fifty fennig!" Baron Antayas's roar of a torrent rang out outside the fort.

The attacking team followed with an earth-shattering charge shout......

......……

With Chloe Knight successfully climbing the fort wall and gaining a foothold, the battle for Alsburg was largely one-sided.

When Chloe and another knight led their servants to jump off the fortress wall, the leader of the bandits, who had fought to the death in front of the fort gate with his iron armor and barrel helmet, realized that the defeat was assured, and he left his men who were guarding the fort gate and secretly retreated behind the wooden fort under the cover of two henchmen.

Ron, who was swinging his spear forward, glanced at the back of the bandit leader leaving in a hurry, and he shouted to Art, who was one person away, "Master, run, run, run." ”

Art turned his head and shouted, "What ran away?" ”

"Bandit leader, bandit leader," Ron said anxiously, pointing the short spear in his hand at the bandit leader who had turned the corner of the house.

In the battle for the fortress gate just now, several people in the patrol team were defeated by this bandit leader, and besides, the head of the bandit leader was also the most valuable, how could Art let him slip away like this. Anyway, the situation at the fortress gate was decided, and it was only a matter of time before Ars was captured, so Art pulled out of the battle and pulled Odo, who was still fighting, out of the battle formation.

By the time Art chased Otto and Ron to the wall behind the wooden fort, the bandit leader had already climbed the wooden wall and was about to flee over the wall.

Seeing this, Art took his bow and quickly shot a light arrow, which plunged into the bandit's calf, causing the bandit leader to fall from the wall to the battle path with severe pain and spasms, and then fell to the ground with a "plop" and fainted. A minion originally planned to go down to save the bandit leader, but when he saw the Yat and several people chasing after him, he turned his head to look at another companion who had already climbed over the wall, and finally gave up the plan to save people, and fled over the wall towards the mountain.

"Stop chasing, the prey is here." Art yelled at Ron, who was about to run up the wall and chase after him.
