At this time, the number of defenders in Copenhagen was very large. In addition to www.biquge.info 7,000 regular troops, there are more than 10,000 people, reaching more than 20,000.

Of course, those people are strong, let them help defend the city, and they can also exert a certain defensive ability, but when used to fight face-to-face battles, the people are not as good as the regular army, and they are easy to be repulsed.

Therefore, when the city gate was broken, most of the coalition soldiers who poured into the city were regular soldiers, densely lined up on the streets, blocking the advance of the coalition army. Every step forward for the coalition forces was very difficult. Because, on the road to the Danish royal palace, there were thousands of regular troops......

The Allied soldiers were not as familiar with Copenhagen as the Danish army, so after the northeastern gates were opened, the Men took over the task of the regular army under the command of the Danish officers. The officers and men of the Danish regular army, one after another, quietly converged from the alleys to the main street leading to the palace at the northeast gate, desperately blocking the allied army.

When thousands of people are crowded on one street, the coalition fighters really can't move an inch. Thankfully, the large shieldmen were able to withstand the enemy's attacks, and the musketeers, who had been lifted to the heights, leisurely killed the Danish soldiers. It's just that because there are too many people, the advance of the coalition forces is blocked......

Standing on the head of the northeast city gate that had just been controlled, Marin looked at the dense enemies on the central street, and Marin was also a little frightened. He understood that it would be too difficult to advance in the face of the enemy's ruthlessness.

Through the telescope, Marin found that there were many enemy torches on the city walls, and they were pouring into the city - obviously, the enemy troops on the city walls were supporting the main street......

Marin's heart moved, and he called his subordinates, and called Weizmann, the commander-in-chief of the Hamburg army......

"Marlin-sama, are you looking for me?" Weizmann was soon over.

"Well, Weizmann, I see that the Danish army is pouring into the streets. In that case, we are moving too slowly. Take 2,000 Hamburg mercenaries and kill them southwest from the city! ”

"The head of the city? The head of the city to the southeast? There are a lot of enemies on the city walls...... Is 2,000 people enough? Weizmann scratched his head.

"I just looked at it and found that most of the enemy's regular troops ran out into the streets to block the main forces of our army. Most of the remaining people on the city wall have no armor, and they should be strong. 2000 fighters, enough to deal with them. Moreover, the southeast wall faces the Bay of Copenhagen and has a light defensive task. Before, there were not too many people arranged by the Danes on the southeastern city wall. Its main forces are on the southwest and northeast walls. ”

"In this way, okay, I will immediately organize mercenaries and kill them from the top of the city in the direction of the Copenhagen Palace!"

Soon, Weizmann organized 2,000 Hamburg mercenaries and began to kill them from above the northeastern city wall in the direction of the southeast wall. At the forefront were two-handed swordsmen wearing breastplate armor and helmets. The breastplates and steel helmets worn by these two-handed swordsmen were lent to them by Marin to reduce their casualty rate.

As Marin guessed, most of the defenders who remained in the city at this time were young and strong in the city. They didn't have much trouble standing at the head of the city and throwing rocks below, but in the face of the armoured two-handed swordsmen, they were a little too much to resist. After all, these people are strong, they have not practiced martial arts, and their fighting ability is so bad that they are deadly. Under the charge of the Hamburg two-handed swordsmen, the Danes on the city walls were defeated one after another.

And because of the cover of night, the Danish officers who had already taken the regular army down the city wall to participate in the street battles did not notice the movement on the city wall. Moreover, they did not expect that the enemy army would break through and advance from the weakly defended southeastern wall......

Blocked by thousands of Danish regular soldiers, the main force was moving almost forward on the street in the direction of the palace. But at the same time, 2,000 Danish mercenaries were advancing rapidly on the southeast wall of Copenhagen.

Seeing that the Hamburg mercenaries were progressing well, Marin simply sent 2,000 additional soldiers and horses to assist the 2,000 Hamburg troops. Of course, these 2,000 soldiers and horses are not for the Hamburg mercenaries to attack. Because, the city wall is so wide, there are only a few people rushing in front, and it is useless to send another 2,000 people. However, they could control the stairs along the way to prevent Danish reinforcements from climbing the walls again and attacking the Hamburg army from the rear. Placing hundreds of men at the top of each staircase will be able to resist the Danish army rushing to the top of the city. In this way, the 2000 Hamburg warriors who attacked on the city walls had no worries.

It wasn't until dawn that the allied forces advanced 300 meters on the street leading to the royal palace in Copenhagen, almost moving forward. On the southeast city wall, 2,000 Hamburg mercenaries were about to reach the city wall near the Danish royal palace......

Seeing this, Marin immediately dispatched 4,000 elites to rush along the controlled city wall in the direction of the Danish royal palace......

However, the walls of the Danish royal palace are not so easy to control. Because, the Danish royal palace Copenhagen Palace (later called Christian Palace) is not in the main city, but on an island within a city called "Castle Island".

On the southeast side of Castle Island, there is the narrow Copenhagen Bay, which is also separated from the main city by a river. In fact, Castle Island is the heart of Copenhagen. Here, the first fortresses and fortresses of Copenhagen were built. To put it more bluntly, Castle Island is the first core city in Denmark. It was only later that Copenhagen became more prosperous and expanded, and the island of Castle became larger.

So, the Hamburg mercenaries who hit the core area of Castle Island encountered a chasm that blocked the connection between the main wall and the old wall of Castle Island.

Moreover, the island is connected to the outside world by a stone bridge to the northeast......

To access Castle Island from the main town, you must first lie down from the main wall and then cross the only bridge to enter the castle island wall...... Even, on the city wall on the castle island, there is a city gate......

When Marin rushed from the city walls to the gates of Castle Island, he was relieved. Because, this city gate is not an iron gate, but an oak gate......

Marin organized a large number of musketeers, went up to the stone bridge, and fired at the Danish Janissaries at the head of the city. Under the continuous rain of bullets, the Danish Janissaries were no match and were so suppressed that they could not raise their heads. Of course, the stones they threw and the arrows they shot also caused some casualties to the musketeers.

Take this opportunity, Doni. The demolition team led by Ciri, under the cover of several large shield soldiers, with chisels, came to the gate under the old gate of Castle Island, began to pry open the stone slabs laid on the ground, and then began to dig a pit...... As for digging holes, what are you digging for? Of course, it's a powder keg......

After a loud bang, the gate of Castle Island was directly blown up. Dhoni. Ciri was afraid that the explosion would not be damaged, so he specially put two powder kegs. As a result, the oak gate of Castle Island was directly shattered. Even the foundation of the stone bridge leading to Castle Island was almost shaken by the bombing.

As soon as the city gate was broken, the allied soldiers rushed directly to the old city. And at this time, there were only a thousand Danish Janissaries in the old city, where was the opponent of several thousand coalition troops?

Those Danish guards are indeed very skilled in martial arts, and they can fight several ordinary people at a time. However, in front of Marin's musketeers, no matter how good your kung fu is, it will be a one-shot kill, and you can't put on plate armor......

The army then moved on and reached Copenhagen Palace on the island of Castles......

Conquering this larger castle is not too much of a task. Because, its gate is also made of oak......

"When I go back, I will definitely change the gates of the city and the palace to be made of iron!" Marin told himself.

Now, against the background of Marin's invention of burying powder kegs and blowing up oak doors, this technique must have spread quickly. When the time comes, the armies of other countries will also learn this obscene method. If it is used against Aurich, it will be dangerous. Therefore, Marin planned to learn from the Danes when he returned, and replace the city gates and the palace gates with iron. Even if the other party buried a powder keg, it can't be blown up......

When the gates of Copenhagen Palace were blown up, Allied soldiers poured into Copenhagen Palace. Guarding in front of King Hans of Denmark, there were only more than 300 palace guards left.

Unfortunately, these palace guards were also frightened by muskets. Because, the palace guards who rushed forward before were all beaten into a sieve by muskets......

At this time, King Hans was also discouraged, looking like he had nothing to love. He didn't believe that he would lose to an alliance of a new count and two Hanseatic cities.

King Hans, who had no way to retreat, shouted loudly to Marin:

"What the hell do you want? Do you want to kill them all? Don't forget, my two brothers-in-law, one is King James III of Scotland, and the other is Frederick III, Elector of Saxony. Also, my eldest son-in-law is Elector Joakim I of Brandenburg! ”

Seeing that he must have been captured, the Danish king began to look for a backer......

Marin's eyelids jumped, he really almost forgot that the queen of the Elector of Brandenburg was the eldest daughter of King Hans of Denmark, and it seemed that she was married in October last year.

As for the Scottish king, Marin never took it seriously. Because, Scotland and Germany are separated by a North Sea. Not to mention that the Scottish navy was rotten to slag, even if they had enough ships to carry the Scottish army to land, Marin was confident that they could defeat them. Moreover, if James III wanted to bring troops to Denmark, he had to ask the Scottish nobles if they agreed. Because, on the edge of Scotland, there is also England, the enemy of life and death.

Therefore, in the end, King James III of Scotland can only rely on diplomacy to put pressure on himself. The only trouble was the combined pressure of Frederick III, Elector of Saxony, and Joakim I, Elector of Brandenburg. Under the pressure of the two Electors, Marin also felt Alexander......

But whatever, let's get the old thing King Hans up first......
