Chapter 178: Rocket Arrow

It was also because of Simmonsbro's advance warning that the defenders of the Duchy of Greater Poland and the Prime Minister of Greater Poland were able to prepare defensive measures in advance.

As early as half a month ago, the Prime Minister of Greater Poland had already collected all the grain and grass in the Greater Poland region into the city of Gniezno.

They had been preparing food and grass for months, and they promised Simmonsbro that as long as there was still one person in Gniezno, they would not open the gates and surrender, and they would defend to the end.

Moreover, the defenders of Gniezno were very confident that they would be able to defend it for a month, because after Simmonsbro's annual construction, Gniezno was the strongest city in the Kingdom of Poland.

I don't know what the reason is, Simon Sbro's annual income, he used ten of his ** to strengthen the city of Gniezno, so the city of Gniezno is actually stronger than Krakow, the capital of the Kingdom of Poland.

This may be Simmonsbro's lack of security, after all, since the Kingdom of Poland followed the Chinese Empire's customs, Simmonsbro has seen a lot of allusions to the birds and bows.

Simmonsbro feared that Scarborough would one day run out of troops to attack him, so he had to fortify the city of Gniezno once a year.

Moreover, Simmonsbro invited people from the Ministry of Industry of the Chinese Empire to design and strengthen the city of Gniezno, because he thought that Polish craftsmen were unreliable, so he invited craftsmen from the Chinese Empire to build and strengthen the city of Gniezno.

In fact, few of the officials of the Principality of Greater Poland understood Simmonsbro's thoughts, and they always thought that Simmonsbro was doing this at a loss of money and money, and the officials of the Principality of Greater Poland did not know how many times they had persuaded Simmonsbro, but Simmonsbro continued to build as he should.

Now, when the Pomeranian army attacked Gniezno, it became clear to the officials of Greater Poland why Simonsbro had been fortifying the city.

The general of the defenders of Gniezno looked at the group of Pomeranian troops running towards the city in the distance and smiled disdainfully: "Hehe, it's just a rabble! ”

The Pomeranian king's ** team running towards the city is differently equipped, the armies of the large tribes are better equipped, and the armies of the smaller tribes are very poorly equipped.

The armies of the large tribes wore leather armor and carried knives in their hands, while the armies of the smaller tribes were covered in rudimentary animal skins and held axes for chopping firewood.

The official army of the Pomeranian Kingdom was dressed in armor and swords purchased at high prices from the merchants of the Chinese Empire.

This could not help but make the general of the defenders of Gniezno look down on them, and the general of the defenders of Gniezno said:

"Where are the archers?"

"In!"

The archers of the city of Gniezno replied loudly.

General of the defenders of Gniezno: "Prepare the rocket!" ”

The archer drew the bowstring: "Ready!" ”

With a wave of his hand, the general of the defenders of Gniezno shouted at the Pomeranian army below:

"Shoot!"

The archers of the defending city of Gniezno let go of their bowstrings when they heard it.

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Ahh

"Ahh

In a few moments, the skins of the Pomeranian soldiers in animal skins were ignited by the fiery arrows, and they stopped in pain and shouted loudly.

As the group of non-commissioned officers of the Pomeranian army, whose bodies were set on fire by the arrows, stopped and shouted, the formation of the Pomeranian army was suddenly disrupted.

Although the army of the Pomeranian kingdom did not have any formation at all.

The general of the defenders of Gniezno looked at the Pomeranian army that stopped and shouted below, and said with a disdainful smile: "Hehe, what a rabble, just because these people also want to attack the strongest city in our Kingdom of Poland?" ”

"Don't stop, keep shooting! Shoot until they withdraw! The general of the defending army said loudly.

"Yes, General!"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Ahh

"Ahh

After a while, another group of troops was ignited.

When the gray-haired Annarek in the rear saw this scene, he understood that he could not fight anymore, and he immediately shouted loudly:

"Withdraw first!"

"Withdraw first!"

When the Pomeranian soldiers in front heard that the main general told them to withdraw their troops, they immediately turned around and quickly pulled towards the rear.

The corners of the defending general of Gniezno City rose and said: "Keep shooting, only one person on the other side is within range, you can continue to shoot for me!" ”

The archers shouted:

"Yes, General!"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Whoosh Whoosh"

"Ahh

"Ahh

In a short time, several more armies of small Pomeranian tribes were lost here.

......

"General, won't we go out of the city to pursue?" Next to the defending general, a cavalry general looked at the defending general and asked.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase! We only have more than 6,000 people in the city, including the reserve army, and there are at least 40,000 or 50,000 people left on the other side, if we rush out of the city, they will not be their opponents at all, we just need to hold on to our own city. When the defending general heard the words of the cavalry general beside him, he said lightly.

When the cavalry general heard the words of the defending general, he suddenly realized: "The general is right, the last general was almost carried away just now!" ”

......

night

In the makeshift Pomeranian barracks, the gray-haired Annalek walked back and forth in his tent around the rising fire.

He didn't expect that Poland, who had just arrived, would lose so many troops in the first battle.

Anarek said with annoyance: "If I had known that I had left my own army, this rabble should have gone to the capital of the Kingdom of Poland by ship." Rocket arrows, I really didn't expect the Kingdom of Poland to attack us with such arrows, those small tribal warriors in animal skins are really a rabble! ”

Annarek frowned and walked around, in fact, there were not many dead troops this time, but because of the rocket attack, many people were burned, and because of this, the army was disorganized.

"Rocket, rocket, rocket, fire, fire, yes, fire, fire!" Annalek muttered, muttering as he suddenly thought of a solution.

In fact, this is not to say that the Pomeranian people are too stupid, but because they used to be in a kind of tribal life, in tribal life, even if they win the war, they will not be wiped out, because their own tribe also needs manpower, so it is understandable that they did not think of the fire attack of the Kingdom of Poland.

Annarek raised the scoop and said with a smile: "Poles, since you use fire, then I will use water to extinguish you." ”

After saying this, Annarek poured the water from the ladle into the fire, and in a short time the fire that was burning with flame was extinguished by Annarec with the water in the ladle.

Annarek smiled and said, "Hahahaha, despicable Poles, tomorrow I will show you the true strength of our Pomeranian warriors. ”
