As a "popping" sound continued to sound, all 9,000 arrows poured down on the city wall, and many arrows shot at the stone city wall, and many of them were bounced off by the strong battlements.

Others, over the walls, hit the enemy's shield, and the rest hit the gaps in the shield, inflicting damage on the enemy.

It is worth mentioning that the powerful crossbow arrows even pierced through some shoddy enemy shields, causing damage to the enemy.

This overwhelming round of arrows inflicted more than 500 casualties on the enemy, and if it were not for the battlements and shields, this round of fire would have caused at least three or four thousand casualties to the enemy.

But defending the city is like that, the defenders who occupy the walls have the most powerful advantage, they can rely on the battlements to fight the enemy from above.

Two more rounds of fire were fired, and the damage caused by these two shots was very small, adding up to only five hundred casualties, and the enemy had learned how strong the long-range forces of the Denlenburg army were.

In the future, the archers and crossbowmen may do less damage to them, and they will learn how to dodge from the rain of arrows.

However, William was quite satisfied with the results, at least today he had the result of incapacitating a thousand enemy men in one day, and the enemy's total strength was only more than 14,000 people.

According to this trend, he is not afraid of slowly spending a few months, it is nothing more than a few months of food, and compared to being able to get a country, that little bit of food is nothing.

After all, William's food reserves are still enough to eat.

William's idea is that if it doesn't work in one month, then two months, if it doesn't work, then three months, if it doesn't work, then one year, and if it doesn't work in one year, then two years.

He didn't believe that the food in the city could feed more than 10,000 people for two years, and William's supplies were enough at all times.

Besides, even if the food in it can be eaten for two years, can these mercenaries accompany Duke Bunkerson for two years? If you don't go back for a few months, I'm afraid that the hometowns of these mercenaries will be eaten by others, and there will be no scum left.

And William just lacks time at this time, because of William's strength, no one wants to mess with this powerful earl.

Anyway, he was very restrained for the time being, and he didn't offend anyone's interests, and Donchekel was also afraid of William's strength, the Kriza people were surrounded by neighboring countries, and once there was any change, it would be a matter for the entire Holy Religion world.

In addition, William did not have any enemies to directly threaten him, and his territory was also impregnable with multiple safeguards.

Without any worries, he didn't plan to build a castle under a person's name, and if he had to, he was ready for a siege of two or three years.

William rubbed his red nose, took a snot breath, and went back to his sumptuous toboggan to roast the fire.

It's not that cold when it snows, but when the snow is over, the temperature will tell you cruelly what it means to be cold in winter.

But even if he was back in the toboggan, he wouldn't be able to check on the situation.

"Let the archers stop shooting! Recovering his strength, the crossbowman continued to shoot, allowing the trebuchet to prepare, and when ready, it immediately threw at the wall.

William was in the middle of the warm sleigh, holding a warm porcelain bottle with sweet honey hot water, and he said to the herald in the sleigh with Urimu and Norwen.

The herald passed on the order, and William was extremely comfortable in it, and he didn't want to pay for the battle with resources and weapons.

Torsion trebuchet is a completely different way of throwing kinetic energy from ordinary trebuchets, it fires rather than throws, similar to the difference between mortars and field guns.

It is a straight line bombarding the plane of the wall, not the arc of the ordinary trebuchet above the wall, and it is extremely destructive to the wall.

If the city wall can't withstand even a few blows, it will collapse.

However, as the royal capital, the quality of Brijek City is of course undoubted, even if it is bombarded all day long, it only causes some tremors.

After all, the seven or eight meter-thick city wall was very dignified even in front of the cannonballs of William's previous life.

It's just that the constant bombardment has reduced the morale of the enemy, and the trembling city wall is really unsteady.

In addition, occasionally a few unlucky eggs are really hit by a big rock, and the bloody appearance can almost make people vomit out all the food they had three days ago.

Many people were scared of the battle, and their morale plummeted, but the walls still showed no signs of collapsing, and now William could only inflict only a few hundred casualties even if he let the archers shoot every day.

Only by sacrificing a few men and having the soldiers climb the walls while shooting can they inflict enough damage.

In this way, a month passed, and the troops of the White Rose Kingdom finally crossed one difficulty after another at this time and arrived at the city of Briyek.

When they saw what was going on on the walls and what was happening outside them, they understood what was going on.

William was wary enough to face this strange army of thousands of people, even though he clearly knew that this was the army of the White Rose Kingdom.

When the two armies were negotiating, William informed General Dalivan of the murder of Queen Daline, and explained that he had sent his troops to avenge Queen Daline.

After learning of this, General Dalivan's face was rather gloomy, and Queen Dareen's death meant that his mission was not completed.

Even, if this news is transmitted back to the White Rose Kingdom, it is very likely to cause an uproar, and the only heir to the king has died.

This means that King Lerna and the current direct royal family will be extinct, and the side branches of the royal family and other great nobles will be eager to take this heir to the throne.

And he could imagine how a terrible rage King Lerna would have taken out on him because of his tardiness and the death of Queen Daline.

It grimaced and thanked William, after all, he had come to avenge Queen Dareen, and then set up a camp forty kilometers away from Brijek City.

Then he quickly sent someone to pass the news of Queen Daline's death to King Lerna, although he did not want this to happen, but he had to pass the news to King Lerna truthfully.

As for William, he didn't have any worries, he was not afraid of King Lerner coming to get a piece of the pie, he believed that as long as King Lerner was not old and confused, he would not come to make trouble for himself at this time.

It would be very face-saving if he didn't go to his country, and if he didn't know how to lift, then William wouldn't be polite to him.

At this time, the siege was still ongoing, and the defenders of the city were not worried about food, but about the increasingly serious heating problem.

By this time they had already begun to demolish the wooden structures of the houses, and although the winters in Brijek were not as cold as in the north of the mainland, they were also very cold.
