The archers are still bending their bows and arrows, almost no need to aim, the enemy army under the city is already crowded, crowded, and the soldiers of the lord army are still being hit by arrows, but for the lord army attacking on all fronts, this casualty is nothing! The fastest enemy has already begun to climb the ladder!
An officer shouted at the bottom of the city, "The lord of Nuam has an order, and the first one to rush to the city will be rewarded with a hundred dinars; and he that killeth Karl shall be rewarded with five hundred dinars; Whoever kills the rebel leader Zhang Wu will be rewarded with 1,000 dinars! ”
Zhang Wu, who was commanding the battle at the head of the city, was speechless for a while, and said to Bandak beside him: "Ya's Nuam is also stingy, I'm only worth a thousand?" ”
Bandak was happy and said: "Marshal, it's already a lot, Karl is only worth five hundred, haha!" ”
"Phew!" Zhang Wu snorted and turned his head angrily!
"Lord Nuam has an order, be the first to rush to ......" The officer began to shout again!
"This bastard...... Look for death! Bandak was also upset by his shouting, and snatched a good crossbow from a soldier next to him, glanced at it, and pulled the trigger fiercely!
"Tight-" There was a soft sound! The crossbow bolt from the string slashed like lightning, and with a pop, the neck of the shouting officer in the middle of the sword was so powerful that it shot through his neck, and the tip of the arrow revealed the old man, and the officer's shouting was also cut off by force, and he didn't even scream, and he fell off the horse!
Zhang Wu looked at Bandak up and down in a daze, and said admiringly: "I don't see it, it's okay, I have a fight with Desaiwei!" ”
Bandak smiled and said, "We Rhodoks all use crossbows, although they are not as good as Desaivi, but at such a close distance, it is no problem to put them on him!" ”
"Not bad!" Zhang Wu picked a thumbs up! Looking back and seeing that the enemy had already climbed halfway up the ladder, Zhang Wu's face immediately turned cold, and he ordered loudly: "Archers retreat, logs, carry me up!" ”
"One, two, three! ......""One, two, three! ……”…… As the archers retreated from the city, the infantry marched with heavy steps, laboriously carrying the huge logs with bark in front!
"Prepare ......" Zhang Wu squinted his eyes and raised his right hand!
"Smashing the ......" With the powerful wave of his right hand, Zhang Wu loudly pronounced the death sentence of the soldiers on the ladder!
One by one, the logs were pushed down from the city by the rebel soldiers, the huge and heavy logs smashed on the ladder, the ladder was smashed, two of them fell apart on the spot, and the pieces became with a bang, and dozens of soldiers danced for a while, fell down from mid-air, and then were smashed on the body by the logs that fell from the sky, and the tendons were broken and fractured on the spot, and they died!
The other eight ladders, although they are built stronger, but the fate of the soldiers above is not at all better than those on the two ladders, the huge impact of the log on the ladder made the ladder tremble fiercely, and some soldiers who were not very firm in their grip were shocked and fell off the ladder on the spot, and fell half to death! Luckily it wasn't shaken off, and then it was rolled right by the logs that rolled down the slope, and they were knocked off with their heads broken and bleeding!
Not only that, but because the wall of Barryer is not low, and the angle of the ladder is also very steep, the log rolled down, and did not stop at the bottom of the ladder, but by inertia, it crushed into the army formation of the lord army, and a large number of soldiers who had just rushed to the city before they had time to step up the ladder were knocked down! Thousands of pounds of logs, rolling down from such a high place, the impact force can be imagined, the soldiers of the lord army are dying and touching each other, and each log is killed and injured dozens of people! There is no way, the soldiers of the lord army are standing too densely!
Seeing the soldiers who had approached the city, as the supreme commander of the siege, Lord Nuam had already smiled, since the siege of the city, his side had been hit a lot! That damn Carl, a headless rush, not only killed several of his own noble generals, but also suppressed the morale of the army to the lowest point! Well, now, although it took hundreds of lives to ride the ladder well, it is still well driven! As long as the soldiers landed in the city, the advantage of the defenders came to an abrupt end, as long as their own soldiers continued to ascend the city, in the melee, the advantage of their own numbers would slowly be revealed!
"Barrie is ours!" Lord Nuam rode on his horse and said to the people around him in high spirits, and then his eyes widened, and he fell headlong under the horse!
"My lord......" The soldiers hurriedly helped Nuam to sit up, Nuam's lips trembled constantly, like a stroke, looking blankly at the smashed crying soldier under the city wall, Nuam closed his eyes in pain!
The remnants of the lord's army under the city began to flee, except for the dead and wounded, the soldiers who could still move, all ran away, and the spear that the officer had been ordered to stick to the ground as a boundary was also knocked down by the soldiers who fled, and the lord's army did not shoot the deserters with arrows, and let these retreating soldiers run back! The entire lord army was silent!
Before he even touched the head of the city, he had already lost nearly 1,500 soldiers, and the soldiers who were killed by those tiger-skinned cavalrymen in front of the front turned over, his own casualties had exceeded 2,000! Originally, it was not too much to fight a battle, and a few thousand casualties were not excessive, especially as a siege party, but more than 2,000 lives were taken, and no one can be sure that they have killed an enemy until now, which means that the other party may have zero casualties until now! This is terrifying, zero to two thousand! Lord Nuam feels like he's aged a lot all of a sudden!
"Radu, let's withdraw our troops!" Nuam said to a pale nobleman beside him!
"What? My lord, I heard you right! We have lost so many people! Withdraw our troops like this, and we will become the laughing stock of the entire Salander in the future! The nobleman with a very bad face jumped up and shouted!
Nuam looked at him deeply and said, "I have a gut feeling that we can't win this battle!" ”
Lord Radu laughed and said, "Lord Nuam, when did you become so bold? Well? You've only lost a tenth of your soldiers and horses, and you're scared? You are afraid that you will go, my two sons died at the hands of these people, and I was also injured by them, even if I die, I will take them to the funeral! ”
"You ......" Nuam frowned, and wanted to say something, but Lord Radu didn't plan to listen to it!
Turning around, Ladu got on the war horse with the support of his own soldiers, and shouted: "Where are the soldiers of the headquarters? ”
"Yes!" Lord Ladu's men agreed in unison!
"All of them will attack the city with me, the infantry will go first, the cavalry will supervise the battle, and those who dare to retreat will be beheaded immediately, and ...... Your family will also go to hell with you when I return to the realm! "Lord Radu threatened viciously!
"............" The soldiers of the Lord of Radu were silent!
"Attack!"
With a resolute look on their faces, a group of soldiers set out on their way to hell!
