Chapter 550: The City is Broken

While William was quietly fighting his troops, the Duke of Bunkerson was also constantly attacking the city walls, and even plundered the surrounding civilians to help siege the city, allowing them to consume the stones and arrows of the defenders in the city, as well as the physical strength of the defenders.

In just one day, more than 20 defenders of the castle were killed, and if this trend continued, it would be difficult for the entire castle to hold out for a month.

At this time, on the border between the Kingdom of Tskema and the Kingdom of the White Rose, Dalivan, the general sent by King Lerna, was leading the troops to advance rapidly.

The order given to him by the King of Lerna was to rescue the city of Brijec, and it was clear that such an urgent task could not allow him to march slowly, so he kept urging his soldiers forward.

At this moment, the sentry in front reported that a bridge over the river in front of them had collapsed for unknown reasons.

Now there was no way to cross the river, which was more than twenty meters wide, and because they were marching hastily, they did not even have the means to build a pontoon bridge for some time.

Therefore, General Dalivan could only ask the whole army to cut down wood and build a wooden bridge that could form a pontoon bridge as soon as possible.

Moreover, the wooden bridge had to be strong enough to allow the heavy wagons drawn by the horses and horses to pass.

This required a relatively strong bridge, but in the face of a large army, this kind of work was not too difficult, and in four or five days, the soldiers cut down enough trees to build a bridge.

Although the creaking and somewhat shaking bridge frightened many of the soldiers, he completed his mission and made all the soldiers cross the river unharmed.

Although as soon as they passed, the bridge crumbled and collapsed in the rushing water.

In this way, they continued to move forward, and in the eyes of General Dalivan, these were just minor setbacks, and they did not think of anything else.

Yamamura, on the other hand, was dressed in a white-gray tight-fitting suit, and more than thirty ninjas dressed like him secretly watched their actions from the trees.

"Are the barricades in front ready?" Yamamura said to one of the ninjas beside him.

"Ready, my lord, where there are large barricade traps, as soon as they get there, there will be countless trap barricades to hinder them!"

"Excellent! You continue to do more than roadblocks in their way, and I don't want them to reach Brijek for at least two months, and this is also the order of the lord! ”

As soon as the ninja heard that it was the Earl's order, his expression immediately turned grim, and he nodded respectfully and said, "Yes!" My lord! ”

Then, as if cursed by a demon, the troops led by General Dalivan were either stuck with nails or fell into a trap on the road.

As a result, many soldiers were seriously injured and had to be placed in place and cared for by some people.

Everywhere they passed, there were trees on the road, huge potholes in the ground, and water sprinkled on the ground to create a smooth layer of ice.

This slowed down their pace sharply, and they could walk twenty or thirty kilometers a day, which was all burning incense, and the fastest day was only twenty-five kilometers a day after that.

At this pace, General Dalivan estimated that it would take at least two months to reach the city of Brijek, and his mind was now full of doubts.

The current situation is obviously not an accident, it is obviously a deliberate bad thing to make the road very bumpy.

As for those traps, the big trees blocking the way, and the triangular nails thrown on the ground, as long as anyone who has no problem with their brains knows that it is absolutely man-made.

General Dalivan's heart was clouded with a haze, the enemy was clear and the enemy was dark, he had no idea where the enemy was, who it was, how many there were, and what their purpose was.

In this suspicious situation, he had to order his soldiers to slow down and reduce casualties as much as possible, and as for the order to rescue the city of Brijec, he put it in second place.

After all, if you lose too many troops on the way, even if you reach the city of Brijek, it will be useless.

The mountain village who was observing from the side was also quite satisfied with this scene, and according to this situation, it seemed that his goal had been achieved.

At this time, the Duke of Bunkerson was watching the soldiers fighting under the castle, and Duke Bunkerson's troops were attacking the city walls.

Some of the enemies on the walls were no longer able to hold out, and they were exhausted fighting against the forces of the Duke of Bunkerson throughout the walls.

In this way, ten days have passed, and in the past ten days, the defenders in the castle have lost more than two hundred people, and if it weren't for the fact that these defenders are all elites trained by the royal family, I am afraid that they would have collapsed long ago.

Even so, the morale of these defenders was not high, and even those royal knights had little confidence in defending the city in their hearts.

As for the inhabitants of the city, they were even more panicked, and there was no resistance at all.

Queen Dareen washed her face with tears almost every day in the palace, and at this moment, as the wife of King Brolin, she was so humiliated by the defeated men of King Brolin.

This is something she never thought about after Brolin was still alive, how noble she was at that time, and how majestic King Brolin was.

Unexpectedly, in just eight or nine years, he would fall to this point, and even Duke Bunkerson could come to the city.

Queen Dai Lin's grief made the knights feel very ashamed and sad, as knights, their duty is to protect their master, that is, Queen Dai Lin from any grievances and injuries.

But obviously, they are not competent at this point, so they are also very uncomfortable.

Another five days passed, and the soldiers on the city wall were finally unable to resist the attack of the Duke of Bunkerson, and there were only less than one hundred and fifty men left, and there was no way to defend the kilometers of the wall.

Under the enemy's successive attacks, it is often the defense of the east and west that fails, and in this case, the enemy takes advantage of the gap to climb the city wall.

Even if Queen Dai Lin asked all the knights to go to the city wall to help, they could not resist the enemy's attack.

The castle was already full of rumors, and the nobles and courtiers of the court, the courtiers, and the wealthy merchants who had been surrounding Queen Daileen had all fled after the siege of Duke Bunkerson.

Otherwise, they also have some guards under them, and it will not be so difficult to defend the city.

But it was too late to say anything at this moment, and Duke Bunkerson's troops completely controlled the city wall and opened the city gate, and Duke Bunkerson's large army poured in like a tide down the city gate, and some soldiers with bad military discipline immediately kicked open the doors of the residents, and went in to rape and plunder.
