The sun had set in the west, and the Chekels had already buried their food under the castle, and William and the others had been replaced, and other knights had taken their place.

William and his men and his men carried the wounded soldiers down the wall, and they would rest for the whole night, and they would not take up the defense of the wall again until noon tomorrow.

"I'm exhausted! It's over! Urimu grumbled as he walked.

"Rest well, we'll take over their defense here at noon tomorrow." Norwen reminded him.

William silently thought about today's events, there were too many Chekel people, it was almost desperate, although the others didn't say it, but the depression in his heart could not be eliminated.

William looked at the tall, thick stone wall in front of him and thought deeply.

Can it really be held? There are more than 10,000 enemies outside! Just for a moment today, William felt a deep sense of powerlessness, the casualties of the Chekel people would not exceed seven hundred, but the wall was caught in a bitter battle, William believed, it was actually a test of the enemy's defensive strength of the city wall, if the next siege, then it would be impossible to repel the enemy so easily anyway.

It's useless to think about this, you have to keep it, it's just that William thinks more, and sometimes thinking too much will shake his determination.

Shaking his head, he mocked himself and walked down the steps down the nearly ten-meter-high wall.

William took the soldiers back to the barracks, and then bandaged the wounded soldiers himself, and although William did his best, William knew that few of the seriously wounded would survive.

"Looks like we have to get the alcohol out, what's going on with that? I remember it was to be distilled! William muttered as he left the barracks.

He also only knows that alcohol can kill viruses and reduce inflammation, and he also knows that alcohol needs to be distilled, but he doesn't know how to distill, when he reads historical texts, distilled liquor is an indispensable second product to make a fortune, but he didn't take it seriously to see the specific steps, and now he regrets his intestines, if he knew that he could cross, how could he get a doctorate!

"William, what are you muttering?" Hearing William's whisper, he asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of talking." William was perfunctory, and he didn't care.

The three of them leaned against the floor in the room near the city walls, drinking the free ale, and chatting with each other.

"Is that wine? It's horse pee! Among the three, he liked to drink the most, and he drank the ale, and his mouth complained.

"That's it! Now that we're at war, it's good to have wine for you to drink, drink less, and don't be out of energy tomorrow! Norwen scolded.

"Alright, go to sleep, there will be a battle tomorrow!" After William finished speaking, he put down his glass, changed into a comfortable position, and fell asleep.

"I'm asleep too!" Norwen spoke, and then snored.

Seeing that he was the only one left, it wasn't interesting, so he had to go to sleep with him.

Just when William was sleeping in a daze, he suddenly felt that someone around him was pushing him, and at the same time, there was a faint shouting of killing in his ears.

"What's going on?" William opened his eyes and sat up, realizing that he had an extra man dressed as a valet beside him.

"That's the kind of lord, the Chekels took advantage of the night to start the siege of the city, and the wall was a little unbearable, and the count asked all the knights to climb the wall to repel the enemy." The valet explained to William.

"Okay, I see, you go and inform the others!" William said.

"Urimu, Nova, get up, get up!" William began to shake the two of them, calling out to them.

"What's the matter, William, it's night, don't disturb me!" He slept the deepest, and said to William half-asleep.

Norwen had already made up his body, where he was rubbing his eyes, William said directly: "The Chekel people are taking advantage of the night to start attacking the city, and the Count has asked us to go to the wall to support." ”

"What? The siege of the city in the middle of the night? Hu Limu hurriedly got up and said in surprise.

"It's true, we need to gear up and support the walls." As he spoke, William opened the door and called the servants in the other room, telling them to put on their armor.

Ten minutes later, after waiting for the servants to finish their armor, eleven men came out of the room, and happened to meet Sir Yasuo, who was wearing no helmet, and he was passing by their room, walking towards the city wall with his own armor.

"Sir Yasuo!" William screamed.

Sir Yasuo glanced back, "Oh, it's Sir William!" ”

"Let's go together!"

"Gladly!"

A dozen people walked in groups towards the city wall.

The walls were already in shambles, and the Chekers had made a dozen trebuchets by cutting wood at night, and although his accuracy was not high, the deterrent power was very great, and the knights' excellent protection was useless in front of the boulders.

The walls began to tremble slightly under the bombardment of the boulders, but they were still very reliable after being strengthened by the Count's family for generations.

Now the greatest threat to the walls is the enemy army rather than trebuchets, and the knights who have been assigned to keep watch are leading the soldiers in a frantic counterattack against the enemies who rush up.

"Oh, Sir David, I can't do it!" One of the knights panted as he saw a wound on his chain mail, where blood was oozing from his body.

"Don't do that...... Whew...... Hold on Sir Mandy, our reinforcements are coming soon! As he spoke, the long sword stabbed violently, killing the enemy behind the wounded knight, and he wanted to sneak attack!

"No, there are too many enemies, they may have dispatched more than a thousand people!" One of the knights shouted that his men had lost seventy-seven or eighty-eight, and that only one servant and a few levies were left to fight with him.

The knights began to retreat, and the knights on the wall were not many for a long time, and there were more than 200 knights defending here during the day, and at night, the count thought that the enemy would not attack in the night, so only more than 30 knights and more than 200 soldiers were deployed to keep vigil here, which gave the enemy the opportunity to attack at night.

The knights and levies on this side of the city wall were driven to the staircase of the city wall, and they were guarded here, once the staircase fell, then it would be very dangerous, and the main fortress of the entire castle would be exposed to the enemy's attack route, and the surrounding arrow towers would also be greatly threatened.

"Sir Sir, there are too many enemies, let's retreat! A soldier pleaded bitterly to the knight.

The knight's face under the helmet was a little distorted, he was still young, he really didn't want to die here! He still has a long life, and countless glory awaits him, and after some struggle, the knight licks his lips and growls angrily, "Impossible! We must hold this place, and if we dare to retreat, be careful that I kill you! ”

He understands that in addition to title and wealth, the most important thing for a family is prestige, he cannot discredit his family, even if he dies, he must leave a loyal reputation to the family, if he does not die, he is a knight known for loyalty and steadfastness.

The remaining knights led the soldiers to defend the place to the death, like a flat boat, struggling in the stormy sea, and wave after wave of enemies rushed their defenses, but they never broke through, and the situation on the other side was better than here, but it was also very critical.

William and the others met several knights with their followers on the subsequent journey, and they marched together to support the city wall, and when they reached the bottom of the staircase, they found the situation above, and hurriedly joined the battle, supporting the remaining less than a hundred men.

"It's finally here!" The few remaining knights breathed a sigh of relief, their armor had been damaged a lot, and more than thirty knights followed Hu Cong to stabilize the battle line here.

The follow-up knights also arrived one after another, more than 300 knights plus launched a counterattack, there were at least hundreds of Chekels on the wall, and 300 well-equipped and well-trained knights fearlessly launched a counterattack against twice as many enemies as themselves.

In the end, the Chekers were unable to take the wall, and in the darkness of the night, they left behind hundreds of corpses and retreated in disgrace.

From the beginning of the war to the present, the earl's side has lost more than 600 people, while the enemy has lost more than 1,500 people, nearly 1 to 3 battle losses, siege warfare is relatively normal, but if it continues to be consumed like this, William is worried that the soldiers will not be able to hold on sooner or later, and the number of enemies is still too many after all.

The knights went down the city wall and found that the count and the viscounts and barons appeared under the city wall, and several knights guarding the city wall were praised by the earl, and more than 200 people were able to unswervingly guard the city wall in the face of more than 1,000 people, avoiding the fall of the castle, which was very rare.
