On this sunny day, winding and rugged paths spread over the territory of the Duchy of Bunkerson, it can be said that the land is quite fertile, and the cultivated land is scattered among the fields.

The neighbourhood of the castle is dotted with dwellings, which were once home to most of the castle's inhabitants, but the war has destroyed the once peaceful atmosphere.

The burned-out house, like an old man who had lost his life, was only a pile of ruins standing in place, whimpering in the spring breeze, as if trying to spread his resentment with the spring breeze.

Below Cancherinburg was the neighing of horses and the sharp spears and swords shining in the sunlight, making people shudder to watch.

His 5,000 elite armed infantry were clustered in front of King Brolin's command as the central army, while the archers with the standard bows and arrows of the Kingdom of Tskema stood behind the armed infantry as a vulnerable long-range strike force.

The rest of the nobles were placed on the two flanks by the King of Brolin, acting as the left and right flanks to deal with the enemy, while in his rear, Viscount Mouyeune was guarded with his three hundred armed infantry.

And King Brolin has gathered all the knights he can command, following on both sides of the Chinese army, and counting the knights directly under the royal family, there are about two thousand one hundred.

That's almost double the number of Duchy Bunkerson, and they wear a variety of smocks, with only the direct knights of the royal family wearing the uniform royal swords-carrying brown bear smock with a red background.

Their pennants were blown by the wind, and although their equipment may be good or bad, their combat skills and spirit were far superior to those of ordinary armed infantry.

This is also the reason why the noble lords and even the countries vigorously develop knights, they are not unaware of the damage to the strength of scattered territories, but the combat ability of knights is indeed strong.

If nothing else, it is indisputable that nine hundred royal knights can overwhelm all the armed infantry under King Brolin.

Duke Bunkerson walked the city walls in an ornate smock and a sumptuous and practical double chain mail, and his head was protected by a helmet with gold accents.

"Soldiers, knights! Let's fight to the end! We'll have reinforcements! Our ally, the Kingdom of Ribourne, has sent troops to us, and His Majesty the Great Pope has sent four hundred Templars to our aid! ”

"Ten days!"

"As long as we can hold on for ten days!"

Duke Bunkerson's helmet-wrapped head uttered a dull voice: "In ten days, reinforcements will definitely come to our aid!" I promise! ”

Upon hearing this, the emotions of the soldiers and knights were at a height, and they had little hope for the war.

After all, the number of enemies is too much, nearly three times the number of them can't be defeated anyway, even if it is a siege, the food consumption inside the castle is definitely much faster than outside the castle.

This has made them all lose hope of survival, and of course their morale will not be very high.

Even those low-level nobles have no motivation to resist, after all, as nobles, as long as they don't die at the first time in battle, there is no danger to their lives, and a generous ransom will make the enemy give up the idea of killing themselves.

What's more, even if King Brolin wins, he will need his own people to help him control the new territory, and he will not kill himself.

Since you won't lose your life when you have absolutely no chance of winning, why do you have to fight so desperately?

Obviously, the Duke of Bunkerson, who looked very reckless and vulgar on the surface, discovered this, after all, being able to become a duke, and integrate his nobles so well, and even be able to compete with King Brolin, this is not something that a reckless man who does not know anything can do.

Duke Bunkerson's move directly mobilized everyone's will to fight, and raised their morale from extremely low to high.

All this is not because of any victory, but because there is hope for survival, and the benefits that can be obtained after victory, and people are profit creatures.

King Brolin wore an even more ornate double layer of gold-encrusted armor, with small movable pieces of iron on his chest as a reinforcement of protection.

He wears a helmet on his head that is entirely inlaid with gold patterns, and a bear head made of pure gold on top of the helmet.

He rode on a tall war horse, and the horse armor on that war horse was so gorgeous that it matched his noble status.

"Shoot!"

At the sound of Duke Bunkerson's order, more than 2,000 archers on the city wall fired at the same time, forming a dense rain of arrows, enveloping the captives who had already entered the firing range.

Of course, the armed infantry under King Brolin was not damaged, not only were they wearing quite good armor, but even they had a shield on their hands, and their protection against arrows was very strong, and only a few fell to the ground after a round of shooting.

The prisoners of war were not treated so well, and they could almost be said to charge unarmed near the castle.

More than 400 of the 1,500 captives fell in a single round under the blows of 2,000 arrows, some of whom were shot directly in the head and neck to the fatal parts.

But more often, they were shot in non-lethal parts such as arms and thighs, but although they were not fatal, they also lost the ability to continue charging.

When they rushed to the vicinity of the city wall, there were only about 500 people left, and more than 1,000 fell under the enemy's rain of arrows.

However, their casualties were not meaningless, and the thirty ladders they carried were successfully approaching the walls under the supervision of the armed infantry.

The remaining captives, the armed infantry, let them escape.

And the remaining more than 200 armed infantry, of course, did not dare to attack the enemy like this, if they really attacked the city wall, they would not even make waves, they would be annihilated by the enemy on the city wall.

At this time, they all gathered together, and their shields were as close together as possible to defend against the arrows that kept shooting from overhead.

Although some armed infantry fell in the middle from time to time, they still held out under the castle.

"Send two thousand men to attack first!"

Looking at the armed infantry who were sticking to the castle, General Yousen immediately made a decision and immediately gave the signal to attack.

With the sound of trombones in the camp of the king's army, two thousand armed infantry in excellent armor ran towards the city wall in a neat array.

"Get ready for stones and oil! The archers are stepping up their shooting! Deploy more archers on the tower for me to play! The enemy is on the attack! ”

Duke Bunkerson shouted hoarsely, waving his well-made sword.
