Yu Wuming didn't see any change in his soldiers, he only saw the change in the Romanians, their formation was scattered, and the attacking queue, which was originally evenly distributed between the small valleys on both sides, began to consciously lean towards the right side of the valley.

Although the Romanians found the rangers on the left side of the mountain, they could not take advantage of the dead spots on the left side of the valley, so they could only use the distance to the left side of the mountain to increase the difficulty of the rangers' shooting.
Unfortunately, this was of no avail, as they approached the wall, they also approached the Rangers, who now had full control of the Guanqian Valley Road, and the Romanians had to use a quick charge to evade the Rangers' shots.
But there are also crossbow archers on the wall, and the tower shield is still moving forward unhurriedly, it's not that they don't want to move quickly, it's just that the shield is too heavy, and they can only move forward little by little, so they can't hurry!
As a result, the tower shield, which was supposed to be an important protective measure, moved slowly behind, and the infantry were scrambling to run towards the wall, and after that, the boys of the 1st Company on the gate city began the summer hunting season happily.
One of the 1st Company was left in the wall, and the others were already on the wall, and in the next quarter of an hour, the lads discovered a wonderful reality, that as long as the Romanians had not yet rushed under the wall, they could easily shoot at these fools without fear of being attacked.
The Romanians also discovered this fact, and while cursing at the officials why they should not be equipped with archers, they ran quickly to the base of the wall, where the shooting was dead.
In fact, the Romanians really didn't have many casualties in the front, after all, they were wearing chain mail, these chain mail's anti-arrow ability was better than the effect of foot armor, but anyone who faced the arrows flying in front of them would be afraid, and the screams of the guys who were shot in the face and couldn't die for a while exacerbated this feeling.
Of course, those who rushed to the base of the wall could not stand still, and they were soon organized by the junior officers, and countless ladders were erected.
A little more than three meters high, there is no way to stop them, soon the first batch of climbers appeared, they were greeted by a round of crossbow arrows of short distance, more than a dozen people have not yet started the stance, thirty or forty arrows left countless blood holes on their bodies, the distance is too close, the huge kinetic energy of the crossbow machine will directly shatter the chain mail, and the arrows will penetrate deeply into their fragile flesh.
Among them, some fell directly off the city wall, some looked at the blood hole on their bodies in surprise, and finally wondered who said that chain mail could protect against crossbow arrows.
A few others drew their short swords and staggered forward a few steps, looking hideous, trying to scare away the few crossbowmen in front of them, but unfortunately, they were responded to by another round of crossbow arrows.
Of course, not all the guys who landed in the city were killed by the crossbow arrows, and there were a few who slipped through the net, they quickly pulled out the two-handed swords on their backs, and took advantage of the crossbowmen's winding opportunity, they invaded in front of the crossbowmen, and raised the big swords above their heads with both hands, intending to slash down.
The crossbowmen in front of them were not only not panicked, they were still looking at these few fish that had slipped through the net with pity, which made the fish even more angry, but in the next second, the angry expression was replaced by a frightened expression.
The 1st company commander said that only the dead will be frightened, and the living will only be afraid, and now these small fish are dead, and their hands are still raised above their heads, but the two-handed swords in their hands have fallen, and a few of them have been scratched by their own swords, but they have no intuition, they only stop and look at their chests.
There were two or three guns there, and the tips of the guns were no longer visible. The soldiers of the 2nd Company with guns shouted, pushed the small fish out of the city wall, and then collected their guns at the same time, and the guns withdrew from the chests of the small fish, and the small fish fell to the bottom of the city and became shrimp.
As soon as this wave was beaten down here, the next wave came up, and those people didn't look at the few people who fell down, they didn't experience siege in Romania, the first batch was always easy to kill, as long as they had enough people to rush up the wall, those government troops would pee their pants in fright, and then, it was Romanian time.
It's a pity that the ideal is always beautiful, but the reality is not what you imagined, this time there were more than 20 people who came up, and before they could stand still, the arrows and guns were greeted together, and in an instant, this batch also went down.
The brave soldiers of the Romanian Free Army were not deterred by the defeat of the two waves, and the third wave, taking advantage of the slaughter of the second wave, all stood on the city wall, and they did not stand together, but desperately pushed the soldiers of the government army towards the inner wall, and then the fourth wave rushed up.
"The first company retreated, and the second company went up to the wall and counterattacked the enemy!" The commander of the 1st company immediately issued a new order as soon as he saw that the situation was not right.
The remaining two platoons of the second company immediately rushed forward with spears, and the five of them formed a battle group, and the five spears advanced and retreated together, forcing the third wave of the enemy back to the wall, but fortunately, the fourth wave had already come up at this time, and the two waves of men ignored the tips of the spears pierced on their bodies, and once again expanded the defensive circle.
The fifth wave went up to the wall, but before they were ready to put it in, the first two waves were forced back, this time not only with the tip of the gun, but also with crossbow arrows, and the soldiers of a company found that the crossbow arrows were shot at them, unless they were very close, otherwise, the damage caused was not strong, and they even saw crossbow arrows hanging on their clothes on some enemy soldiers who landed in the city.
The crossbowmen immediately realized that the Romanians were wearing armor under their clothes, so this time they were all greeting the enemy in front of them, and they were close enough to aim their heads anyway.
The situation was immediately reversed by the Franks, and none of the three waves escaped, all of them were shot at the city walls, and all of them were shot in the face. As soon as the soldiers thought about whether they could breathe a sigh of relief, they heard the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground under the city, and some curious probes saw that twenty tower shields were placed on the city wall, and the tower shields as high as about two meters and a half immediately covered most of the shots on the wall.
The soldier of the probe was stunned by the scene in front of him, and took advantage of this stall, Wallace stepped on the handle of the tower shield and rushed up, which he never dared to imagine before, the handle of this tower shield can actually bear the weight of a person, as a former German elite infantryman, he actually had the leisure to study why the handle of this tower shield can bear the weight of a person, and finally he concluded that they were all wearing heavy foot armor before, and now he only wore a chain mail that could only protect the upper body.
Weight is the difference between success and failure, so he was now standing at the top of the shield, face to face and eye to eye with the soldier who poked his head out to observe, and Wallace bared his yellow fangs at the soldier, and before the soldier could react, he grabbed him by the neck and slammed it back, and the soldier fell down with a scream.
The first casualty of the 14th Division appeared in this way, so curiosity can kill not only cats, but also people.
After Wallace rushed up, he immediately swung his long sword and blocked most of the arrows that shot at him, especially those in the front door, all of which were blocked, and the spear that stabbed over was dodged by him with his body two, cut off two with his long sword, and opened five, anyway, none of them brought damage to Wallace.
The impact of Wallace's foothold was enormous, and two waves of enemies climbed the city wall like a sea romance on the shore, because the tower shield leaned against the city wall, forming 20 simple ladders to climb the wall, making climbing the wall a simple matter.
In the wall, the second company commander has taken over the command of the platoon commander on duty, when the tower shield leans against the city wall, because the shooting hole is blocked, the light is much darker, the second company commander immediately realized that there is nothing good, he ran to the bayonet gun at the base of the wall, and ordered while taking it: "Use the bayonet gun to open the shield for me!"
Several powerful soldiers immediately used their bayonet guns to stick out of the perforation to top the tower shield, but unfortunately, except for the second company commander to let the tower shield move lightly, none of them were opened, in addition to the tower shield is indeed too heavy, the bayonet gun is too thin, and the elasticity is too good is also one of the reasons.
The commander of the second company saw that it was not good, and immediately said: "Five barbed guns are tied into one!"
Immediately, a soldier came over with four more stabbing guns, and the commander of the second company tied the five guns together, and then said to the soldier next to him: "Come, take it with me!"
The two raised their five-in-one spears to top the tower shield again, and this time the tower shield was finally pushed open, but before it could be completely pushed away, the tower shield was slapped heavily on the city wall again.
The second company commander pushed them outward, and Romania outside the city was not idle, when they found that the tower shield was pushed loose, there were several powerful people who buckled the tower shield on the wall again, and then pressed it together with the last two people, plus the people who kept rushing the city, the tower shield was finally buckled on the city wall.
The second company commander tried a few more times, the tower shield was firmly attached, motionless, the second company commander knew that the opportunity had been lost, he immediately ordered: "All the staff go to the city, give up the wall!"
Now the battle has started on the city wall, the position of the commander of the first company is not bad, the battle is not fierce, he has already replenished the soldiers from his position twice, and he only has three or five men in his hands, if there is any tightness there, he has no soldiers to send on this wall.
He was hesitating whether to let the third company send some people up, when the commander of the second company rushed over with a platoon of soldiers guarding the wall.
"Why are you here when you don't attack in the wall?" the first company commander was a little anxious when he saw the second company commander coming up, and asked with a loud shout.
Clamping walls can deal blows to the enemy in a vertical plane, which can significantly interfere with the enemy's attack, and it is obviously not wise to give up at this time.
"The perforation of the sandwich wall is blocked by the tower shield, we can't push it away, we can only come to the city!" The surrounding people were noisy, and the second company commander shouted at the throat to explain to the first company commander.
"Oh, okay, you did the right thing, you came just in time, did you see that strong man?" The first company commander pointed at Wallace with his hand, and said to the second company commander: "The level is very high, you bring a few people over, pester him for me, and I ask the division commander for support!"
