But Marin did not rush to meet Karn and the others in front of the main fortress, but sent men to the other three gates and opened them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because, Edo. Wilmken retracted the remaining Jävre warriors back into the main fort, so Marin's men opened the other three gates without much effort. In this way, less than 2,000 soldiers under the command of Marin surrounded the main fort.

After Marin arrived at the main fort, he also scratched his head a little when he saw the structure of the main fort. Because, the main fort is like a sealed box, with only a few gloomy windows. But trying to enter through a window is simply delusional. Because, at this time, there were more than a hundred Yevre warriors in the main fort. If you want to climb the window, you will definitely be poked out......

If it had been a large courtyard, Marin would have sent someone to throw burning bales into it and smoke the people inside, just as he had done with Sivag in Friesland. However, the main fort was like a sealed box, and there was no place for bales. If you want to throw it in through the window, uh, it's impossible. Because, Marin clearly saw that behind the window of the main fort, there were all the warriors of Jevre......

The only good news is that there is no balcony above the main fort, presumably due to a design problem. Because, the Wilmken family did not expect the enemy army to break through the fortified walls of the castle. Therefore, the main fort is not like the city wall, where there can be defenders smashing things down.

And, despite the windows, when Marin's men approached, they didn't throw bricks and stones down to smash people. What does this mean? Illustrate Edo. Wilmken and his men retreated into the main fort in a hurry, and did not expect to bring the smashed bricks and stones into it.

So, Karn led a group of people directly to the oak door of the main castle and began to smash it......

But as the only gate of the main fortress, it is obviously not badly sturdy. Karn's hands were numb, and he couldn't smash the main fortress gates.

Marin looked and stopped Karn's brute behavior:

"Don't smash it, Karn, your two wives are already there! I'll give it to you when I go back! ”

The soldiers on the side laughed, and Karn was a little embarrassed......

Schwartz, having arrived with a large army, asked:

"Young master, do you want to bring the artillery over and bang on the door?"

Marin thought about it, but didn't agree. Because, he was worried that the ricocheting bullet would hurt his own people.

There was not a large open space in front of the main fort, just a wider street. Bring the artillery over, only to put it across the street and bombard the main fort gate.

However, at such a close distance, if the iron ball shell did not smash the door, it would be easy to rebound. And the artillery positions are so close that the iron ball bounces back, and it is easy to crush the artillerymen. This was not the outcome Marlin wanted. So, we have to think of something else.

At this time, Doni. Cri ran over with his tattered oak door and offered to fight:

"Earl, let me set a powder keg and blow up this gate!"

"No, this gate has not been smashed out of the hole, the powder keg is placed under the door, and the deflagrated gas spreads directly in the opposite direction of the door, and there is no explosion effect just now......"

Gunpowder needs to be placed inside the subject to be blasted to have the greatest effect. If you want to blow up the door, just put it out, it won't work. Of course, the high-energy explosives of later generations may be able to do it. However, it is difficult to have a great effect if the powder keg is not buried deeply.

In his previous life, when he was a teenager, Marin had done experiments. He put the gunpowder peeled out of the cannon into a glass bottle and a Coke can and lit it. As a result, the glass bottle just cracked, and it didn't make a lot of noise. And the gunpowder in the cans exploded......

Because, when the gunpowder gas expands rapidly, the greater the binding force, the stronger the explosive force as a reaction force. Therefore, the shells of grenades in later generations are all made of steel. In addition to the need to make shrapnel to injure people, it is also important to give the charge inside the maximum binding force.

The binding force of the wooden barrel is not much better than the glass bottle that Marin did the experiment in the previous life. The explosive power of black gunpowder is already weak, and the destructive power caused by placing an oak powder keg in front of the gate is limited.

……

But, Doni. Ciri's words reminded Marin......

Originally, Marin was going to go to the castle house to tear down the beams and hit the gate. However, that would be too much effort and might not work. But, what about blasting......

"Send a few men, set up camp, and get some shovel......s," Marin commanded Schwartz.

Logistics baggage troops, with shovels. Because the camp is also to dig pits around the barracks and place skews of slanted wood to prevent the enemy from stealing the camp.

Schwartz was a little puzzled, but he quickly carried out the order......

After a while, several sapper shovels were brought in specially for digging trenches......

"You guys, pry open all the stone slabs in front of the fortress gate!" Marin sent only a few soldiers casually and asked them to pry open the stone slab in front of the gate with tools.

"Young Master, are you going to bury a powder keg?" Schwartz is not stupid, otherwise Marin would not have groomed him. Seeing that Marin sent people to pry the stone slabs in front of the fortress gate, plus a few sapper shovels he had taken earlier, he finally understood.

"Well, not stupid!" Marin nodded.

In ancient wars, a large amount of gunpowder was planted at the foot of the city wall to blow up the city wall, a technique commonly used by the army of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Taiping army often used the method of digging tunnels to dig under the base of the city wall. Then, the Taiping army would use a large number of coffins, wooden boxes, filled with gunpowder, and place them in the tunnels through the tunnels. Then, drag out the long fuse. After dragging out the fuse, the Taiping soldiers would once again block the area outside the coffin filled with gunpowder and the large wooden box in the tunnel with earth to create a better sealing effect.

After that, they lit the fuse that had been laid in advance......

Then, the city wall collapsed, and the Taiping army swarmed in......

Marin actually thought about using this trick against Jävre Castle, but it was useless because he was afraid that others would use it against him after learning it.

But now, with the enemy retreating into the main fort without bringing bricks and stones, Marin asked people to dig a pit in front of the city gate, which would not be disturbed and could be carried out with confidence.

And this trick can't be learned by others. It's useless to learn. During the siege, the enemy will not allow you to dig a pit under the city gates, so you will have to be stoned to death with bricks and stones. Therefore, digging a pit in front of the city gate can only be done when the enemy is powerless to fight back, and the scope of application is relatively narrow......

And if the tactics of the Taiping Army were learned by the Europeans of this era, it would be very terrible. Because, the Danes learned, and they could successfully conquer Old Sten. Stockholm in Sturay, pacifying the independence of Sweden, which Marin clearly did not want to see; It would be even more terrible if the Turks learned it, and perhaps Vienna would not be as impregnable as it was in history. As soon as Vienna was broken, the whole of Germany would be exposed to the iron hooves of the Turks......

Therefore, Ma Lin was reluctant to take out the Taiping army's trick of attacking the city. However, in this particular situation, it can still be used......

Soon, in front of the fortress gate, a deep pit was dug and dug into it. Marin ordered a powder keg to be buried and pulled out the fuse. Then Marin ordered the pit to be filled in and stepped on......

Then, the East Friesian generals, all under the orders of Marin, withdrew far away. Then, Marin lit a long fuse......

"Boom-" The fortified fortress gate was quickly blown open. The sturdy oak door, which is very funny at this time, still has remnants in the upper part, but the lower part, it has blown up......

As soon as the fortress gates opened, Karn picked up his mace and rushed in......

Unfortunately, soon, Karn flew out......

Marin was dumbfounded-Nima, a fierce general like Karn was all knocked out, and there were Lu Bu and Xiang Yu in it?

But soon, Kahn revealed the truth:

"Young master, there are a lot of hammers in there. Seven or eight sledgehammers smashed on me, almost smashing me to the ground, but fortunately this plate armor is of good quality, otherwise I would have been seriously injured......"

Karn's plate armor was not made of the inferior iron of this era, but of high-carbon steel produced in the steel mill, and was very strong. So, despite being smashed by a few hammers, Karn's plate armor was not deformed. It's just that the person was smashed and flew away, and he couldn't breathe for a long time. That is, Karn's animal-like physique. If you replace it with a poor physique, or a plate armor of average quality, it may be hung up......

Marin frowned and waved his hand:

"Let the musketeers come!"

Then, several strong soldiers of Yevre who were blocking the main entrance were directly bombarded and killed......

However, before Marin could be pleased, several more men rushed out of the ranks of the musketeers, and hacked them to death. The musketeers had just finished their bullets and had not yet had time to reload, and at this time they were at their weakest and had no resistance. I could only watch myself being hacked to death......

Marin was immediately worried, before, he did not send the musketeers to rush into the city, that is, he was afraid that the musketeers would not be able to resist after a round of shooting. Now, as it is......

Marin then began to think about how to use the attack power of the musketeers and still ensure that they did not die......

Marin then thought of the battle in which the troops of the Frisian aristocratic Republic had ambushed Sivag in Friesland......

Marin remembered that in that battle, the musketeers had climbed onto the roofs to shoot, so the Friesian army had nothing to do with the musketeers.

"yes, shoot from above!" Marin thought of a countermeasure.

How do you say shooting from a height inside a castle? This one is easy:

"Go find a dozen strong soldiers!" Marin commanded.

Schwartz was puzzled, but quickly brought someone.

"You, in pairs, carry the musketeers and make sure they are ...... taller than the average soldier"

Marin's solution was to put the melee soldiers in plate armor in front of them to block the enemy army. The musketeers, on the other hand, are in the back, higher than the soldiers in front, and in the sky, they use their muskets to kill the enemy who resists......

This trick works wonderfully, the soldiers in front of you just need to resist the enemy, and you don't have to fight hard. And the musketeers who were lifted up in the back were the killer moves......

Relying on this tactic, Marin's soldiers quickly killed and wounded dozens of enemies, while only a few of them were wounded. Because, the soldiers in the front row are mainly on defense and do not fight with the enemy......

When arriving in Edo. When the main room where Wilmken was, at this time, the main room was full of Edo. The elite of Wilmken's men. Marin's men rushed several times, but they were all blocked back, and several of them died.

Moreover, Marin did not dare to use the musket casually. Because, there is an untouchable Princess Hedwig in it......

It was the cousin of the Danish king, and if Hedwig died, Marin would suffer the wrath of Denmark. So, he tried to lay siege as much as he could......

In this way, Marin sent troops to surround the main room, and arranged the windows of the main room to be full of men to prevent the other party from escaping......

In this way, after four days of siege, the people inside finally became too hungry to stand it......

However, Marin did not expect that at this time the desperate Edo. Wilmken went crazy......

Probably knew that he was going to die, because Marin had not spared the entire clan of Edessard I before. So, Edo. Wilmken had a belief in death......

He knew that Marin would not hurt Hedwig. Because, Hedwig was the cousin of the King of Denmark. But now that he knows he's going to die, Edo. Wilmuken went berserk......

He coaxed his eyes and said to Hedwig gently:

"Honey, do you love me?"

Hedwig nodded blankly.

Edo. Wilmken happily said:

"In that case, let's go to heaven together as a family!"

Then, before Hedwig could understand what was going on, he stuck a long sword in his chest......

"Edo...... Why? Until her death, Hedwig did not understand why her husband had killed her......

"Because, our family is going to heaven for a reunion......" said Edo. Wilmken laughed maniacally.

Actually, his inner thoughts were that my Wilmken family was wiped out, and it wouldn't make your Hoffman family any better. If you offend the Oldenburg family, the Hoffmann family will bury the Wilmken family! Even if you can't be buried with you, it will make you unlucky......

Then, Edor who had fallen into madness. Wilmken, with a velvet quilt, covered his daughter, Maria, who was not yet a year old. While covering it, he muttered to himself:

"Baby, let's go to heaven together as a family......"

After covering Maria, who was less than a year old, Edo. Wilmuken drew his sword and killed himself. Before killing himself, he said to his subordinates:

"Surrender, the Vilmukens are sorry for you!"

Then, Edo. Wilmken drew his sword and killed himself, lying next to the bodies of his wife and children......

When Marin entered the room after the surrender and disarming of the Yevre soldiers, he saw three bodies lying on the bed, especially the woman's......

Marin's face suddenly changed:

"It's broken, it's a disaster!"
