Baukan Fortress is an important city, the walls are built tall and strong, and as a fortress, it has only two gates, north and south. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Nobuhara Sora climbed to the top of Bei'an City and couldn't help frowning as he looked at the unkempt and embarrassed Assyrian soldiers under the North Gate.
As far as he knew, the terrain of Port Em was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there were defensive equipment, plus 3,000 soldiers, at least it should be held for a while, no matter how bad it was, he could send someone for help, how could it be easily defeated?
There were almost 2,000 deserters in front of them, and although they had lost their armor, their hands and feet were intact, and they obviously fled without a fight.
Could it be?
Nobuhara thought for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and then smiled sarcastically.
"Get the archers ready to attack!" He said to the guard beside him.
The guard made a gesture, and 2,000 bows and crossbows poked out of the city, aimed at the soldiers under the city, and then, cautiously, he said:
"My lord, they seem to be Assyrians! I've seen a few of them! ”
"I know they're Assyrians!" Nobuhara turned his head and glanced at the guard coldly, "But the enemy army is coming, as imperial soldiers, they have fled here, but there is no scar on their bodies, what does this mean?" Hmph, a bunch of bad guys! ”
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to the guards, and said to the soldiers beside him: "Order all departments to stand by and be ready to fight at any time!" ”
"What about them?" The guard looked embarrassed and asked carefully.
"Let them stay under the city, and if they make any moves, they will be killed immediately!" Nobuhara's tone was light, but a sharp light slipped in his eyes.
"Understood!" The guard's face was straightened, and his voice was calm.
Bang!
Thundered!
At this moment, several loud roars came from the direction of Dongcheng, and the city wall trembled violently, as if it would collapse at any moment. Nobuhara was caught off guard, his body was crooked, and he almost fell.
The guard came up to help, but he pulled back.
"Leave me alone, keep your city!" Nobuhara glared at the guard, and then ran directly to Dongcheng with his personal guards.
There is no gate in the eastern city, the defensive pressure is small, and the defenders are few. But when Nobuhara and his entourage arrived, they were so shocked by the scene in front of them that they couldn't speak.
Above the city, the smoke of gunpowder is filled, the rubble is flying, there is no upright person, and there are two huge cracks on the surface of the straight and solid city wall, which are emitting billowing dust and smoke, which looks shocking.
What kind of force is this, and how can there be such a powerful weapon?
Xinyuan's empty surface sank like water, and he shouted to the captain of the guard: "Chu Jian, blow the snail!" The rest of the people will follow me to the head of the city to defend! ”
"General......" Chu Jian planned to dissuade him from avoiding for a while.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xin Yuan's empty voice was fierce, and he yelled at Chu Jian, what a joke! The city is going to be lost, what kind of generals do you care!
He drew his long knife at his waist and hurried towards the city, followed by a group of his own soldiers.
Chu Jian didn't dare to hesitate, took out a screw horn with a narrow and long style like a knife from his back, put it to his mouth and blew it vigorously.
Squeak~~~ The sound of the snail unique to the West Sea instantly resounded throughout the city, sharp and long, like a sharp knife wind breaking through the air!
The snail, with a soft body and a violent temperament, is the famous battle snail of the West Island, made into a snail, the sound is as strong as a knife, and it is only blown when it is alive and dead, and when the short arms meet.
Xinyuankong's expression was awe-inspiring, he ran to the head of the city, raised his eyes and looked around, his expression suddenly froze, where he entered the eye, the corpses were all over the place, and the blood flowed like a river, and most of the 2000 defenders were killed and wounded, and the rest were also muddy and in a trance. The straight and wide wall passage was now crumbled and potholed, and a dozen trebuchets were separated from the frames and scattered on the walls, and a strange smell permeated the air.
His face was pale, and he looked out of the city, but there was no figure in sight of him under the city, and there was no movement.
The soldiers of Nishijima were well-trained, and they did not panic when they heard the sound of the snail, they appeared in their respective battle positions according to the pre-arrangement, their swords unsheathed, crossbows, and calmly watched the movement outside the city, and another 5,000 cavalry, also fully armed, ready to go out of the city at any time to surprise the enemy who was attacking the city.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
Suddenly, a phalanx of infantry appeared in the sight of the defenders of the north gate, and they followed the heavy and melodious drumbeat, marched neatly, roared loudly, and slowly came towards the north gate.
There are at least seventy or eighty thousand people, densely packed, and there is no eye to see the edge.
When Nobuhara heard the movement from the north gate, his expression changed, and he hurried to the north city. He suddenly had a feeling that he was being led by the nose, which made him have a bad premonition, the commander of the other party must be a cunning guy, and this battle will never be easy!
When he came to the north gate, he saw the army in his sight, which was actually an army he had never seen before.
The bright and yellow armor of all colors, with a calm step and a calm expression, was like a huge yellow cloud slowly approaching the city.
The rear of the Chinese army, raising several large flags, the most central flag, embroidered with a huge eight-pointed star on the flag, waving in the wind, hunting and flying.
"Octagram?" Nobuhara's heart sank, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes: "They really made a move!" ”
He knew that the Empire had fought a naval battle with the Northern Demon Plains three years earlier, and had finally returned. In that battle, although the Demon Plains Alliance took advantage of the weather and the geographical advantage, it could not deny the strength of the other party.
Looking at the frightened Assyrians under the city walls, he said to the guards beside him: "If the other party attacks the city, kill them first!" ”
The guard nodded, but did not speak.
Thundered!
Thundered!
A huge roar came from the eastern wall again, and Nobuhara felt the violent tremors under his feet, and he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
"Order the 3rd Division to attack from the south gate and kill all the enemies in the east!" He gritted his teeth and said.
The phalanx of infantry came to a halt a mile from the city, a distance just outside the range of the trebuchet.
"What a cunning fellow!" The angry Nobuhara was vigilant and repeatedly told himself to calm down.
The silence of the south gate made him feel a lot better, the other party could not successfully capture Bei'an City with only so many people, after all, he had 50,000 soldiers in his hands, and more than 200 miles away was the coalition camp, and it only took a day for reinforcements to arrive here.
The dense forest a mile away from the eastern city wall was already covered with dead leaves, and Qiu Ye was lurking here with 1,000 soldiers of the Destruction Battalion.
"You hurry up and adjust the shooting angle, it is estimated that the opponent's cavalry is coming. Let's entertain them for a while, and we'll leave the rest to the Turist herds. ”
"Master Qiu, wait a few arrows!" Soldier A asked in a deep voice, he was now the commander of the Destruction Battalion.
"To deal with the Yi soldiers, of course, you have to use the No. 7 arrow!" Qiu Ye's eyes showed obscenity.
"Got it!" Soldier A nodded, gave an order to his men, and then crouched down to adjust his crossbow.
"Master Qiu, if you use the old bull's crossbow, won't it be over if you blow up the city wall directly, why is it so troublesome?"
"You know the! This city is useful to keep! ”
"Hey, it's coming!" (To be continued.) )
