At the same time that Hughes led a team of 1 and hundreds of daredevils to desperately block the French counterattack, Harrison, the deputy captain of the daredevils, rushed into the city gate cave with the 2 daredevils, and held down the 30 French soldiers who were living in the room in the city gate cave and beat them violently......

But when they successfully solved the 30 French soldiers in the hole of the city gate, they came to the iron gate and were dumbfounded—on the iron gate, there was not only a bolt, but also an iron lock......

"Law...... Can! Harrison was depressed.

Balk, who came with them, was also a little speechless, but Balk quickly reminded:

"Quick, flip through the pockets of these soldiers, especially the pockets of the officers dressed as squad leaders!" Since it is an iron lock, there must be a key. Normally, the key is on the person of the leader who is near the city gate.

However, they were disappointed......

None of the 30 soldiers in the city gate cave had keys on their bodies. According to a French soldier who was still alive, the key was in the hands of the company commander on the tower of the city gate......

"Rub! This is in trouble! Do you want to go up to the city gate tower and find the company captain? Harrison was a little desperate.

But that was impossible, and when they went up to the city gate, it was estimated that the main force of the French army would come.

Just then, Balk pulled a wire out of his arms...... No, that's a wire saw......

Balk said solemnly to Harrison:

"Vice Captain Harrison, please buy me some time, I want two minutes to saw this iron lock!"

The iron lock was not large, and the French did not expect the iron lock to be broken by the enemy. All they wanted was to drag it with iron locks until reinforcements arrived. Obviously, in general, the French aim is achievable.

Harrison looked sadly at the iron lock (which was lit by torches in the gate hole), nodded, and then drew his sailor's scimitar and said:

"Brothers, come with me to help the captain and them go, we must hold off the enemy for more than two minutes!"

Then, Harrison and his men rushed back to the direction of the inner exit of the city gate without hesitation......

At this time, the battle for the inner exit of the city gate cave was very fierce. The French also knew the importance of the city gates, so they rushed to die. The most terrifying thing is that 50 plate infantry came......

Hughes, the 200 of them, wore not very heavy chain mail in order to facilitate walking. Although there is a shield, it is the most ordinary small round shield. In terms of protection, there is a big gap with the French plate infantry.

The most important thing is that the French plate armor infantry are all knights' children, and they all have more than ten years of martial arts. Moreover, not only are they wearing a full set of plate armor, which has high protection, but the weapons in their hands are also very powerful two-handed swords......

In terms of foot combat, this kind of plate armor infantry wearing full-body plate armor and holding two-handed swords is a very invincible existence in close combat......

Fortunately, most of the 500 plate infantry in the city were deployed near the north gate, and there were only 50 people on the west gate. But if it drags on for a long time, the other 450 plate infantry will definitely gather on the side of the West Gate.

The British daredevils were already formidable, holding shields in their left hands to fend off the attacks of the French soldiers. The cutlass of the right hand is nimble in attacking the enemy. It is difficult for ordinary French soldiers to resist the attack of the British daredevils. They struggled to break through the defenses of the round shield, but were easily slashed or stabbed by the scimitars of the British sailors.

But the 50 French plate infantry were even more formidable, and they were not afraid of the attack of the British sailors' scimitars. And the two-handed swords they wield can even slash the small wooden round shields of the British daredevils. And once the small round shield is broken, the British daredevils can only face being slaughtered......

"Ahh

"Uh-"

……

Under the strong attack of the French plate infantry, the daredevils began to suffer a large number of casualties......

When Harrison saw this, he was also anxious, and he shouted:

"Brothers, hold on, and when the door opens, our elite accomplices will come in!"

The wire saw is still sawing the iron lock, and 2 minutes have passed, and the lock has not been sawed. Balk was covered in cold sweat, but he couldn't rush because the more he rushed, the easier it was to make mistakes......

It took a full 5 minutes for the big iron lock to be sawn off. Then, Balk called a dozen British daredevils in the back row, and together they pulled open the cast-iron gate of the west gate of the Calais fortress......

After a "crunch, crunch" sound, the west door was finally opened......

At this time, in front of the West Gate, 3,000 elite British troops had already gathered......

"Brothers, rush!" Armed with a large shield and a one-handed sword, Morson, the leader of the assault team, rushed in first......

The group of sword and shield soldiers of the assault team is different from the death squad on the inside of the city gate, and the death squad wears chain mail for the convenience of movement. It's lightweight, but the protection is not good. Moreover, the small round shield they used was not very strong. It can be used to resist ordinary swords, but it is difficult to deal with heavy weapons. It just so happens that the two-handed big sword is more restrained by the small round shield.

Most of Morson's commando fighters wore half-length plate armor and iron helmets. The great shield used was also covered with iron sheets. Their role is to resist the 500 plate infantry in the city......

Although there are no plate pants, the defense of the upper body is not bad. Moreover, the people on their legs also wore chain mail pants, and they were not afraid of sword slashes and cuts, but only stabs.

Plate armor pants are too bad for action, so the fighters of the commando team have chosen chain mail pants. Although the protection is not as good as the plate pants, it is conducive to running. After all, they are the attacking side and need to be pushed. Unlike the defending side, as long as you hold your position, you are not afraid of inconvenience......

……

By the time Morson rushed into the inner side of the gate with the main force of swords and shields, Hughes's death squad had already killed more than 60 people. He himself, too, had one of his arms cut off.

After seeing Morson's sword and shield soldiers rush into the battlefield, Hughes smiled, and with Harrison's support, he led his men to step aside, leaving the battlefield to Morson's sword and shield soldiers.

Then, Morson's sword and shield soldiers and French plate infantry collided passionately......

"Bang-" The two-handed greatsword of the French plate armor infantry slashed against the sword and shield soldier's large shield with a loud noise. It's a pity that the big shield is covered with iron sheets, which is much stronger than the small round shield of the death squad just now. Therefore, the attack of the French plate infantry was ineffective, and only shook the shield-wielding arm of the sword and shield soldier numb.

But the one-handed sword in the right hand of the sword and shield soldier stabbed out, stabbing into the body of the French plate infantry, and it was also the sound of metal clashing. Obviously, there was no effect......

Seeing this, Morson immediately ordered loudly:

"Change your right hand to hold a shield and kill them!"

Then, the sword and shield soldiers selected from the Fourth Legion of the Beihai State changed hands neatly and quickly, and then, holding the shield in their right hand, the whole person crashed into the French plate infantry......

Morson's sword and shield soldiers have 800 people, and there are only 50 plate infantry on the opposite side, how can they be opponents? Under the heavy shield of hundreds of sword and shield soldiers, 50 French plate infantry were defeated one after another, and many were knocked to the ground, and then the commandos pounced on them and subdued them......

But before Morson could be happy, another 450 French plate infantry arrived from near the other three gates. Then, on the streets near the West Gate, a desperate duel of 800 plate-armored sword and shield soldiers and 450 plate-armored infantry unfolded......
