Not only did the emperor's ordinary soldiers suffer from the explosions, but also their officers, and the Plonian cavalry, who often abandoned their horses and led their soldiers to the front line of the siege with the honor of a Roman warrior. www.biquge.info They saw that the soldiers were all hunched their necks and shields, and they crossed the deep trench like fools and flutes, and rushed to the place where the oil and fire of Fangzi City could shine, which was simply a "slaughterhouse" set up by the people's army defending the city in advance.

When "Duck! The Emperor's soldiers fell to the ground crying and screaming, and they could only do so now, for no one knew how to resist the blows of this pervasive and fierce thunder.

At this moment, the Seleucian people could clearly see through the firing holes in the flat-headed wall to see safely the enemy's approaching formation, and after locking the position, the grenadiers in charge (most of them were tall Germans) held on to the ladder, took the ignited iron fires, and threw them through the battlements, often a dozen or so iron sparks that were scattered, while rolling down the sloping and thickened walls.

"Bang", a few iron fires rolled along the backs of the fallen crowd, scattered and rolled away, and then an orange explosion, with flying smoke and debris, blew up many emperor soldiers, and then the flames were full of figures moaning and crawling, some soldiers couldn't bear it, so they turned around with a wail, and ran towards the trench while the defenders were throwing, "Don't run, don't retreat!" The Emperor's arrow corps, which was lying behind the sub-wall, was so frightened and angry in the dark night, and then a wave of arrows flew, and the deserters clutched the cluster of arrows that had not entered their chests, and made two circles in place, and then rolled down to the bottom of the trench and died.

The second wave of iron fires was once again thrown down with the sound of a grim reaper's grin, and a brave Plonian knight stood up and shouted at everyone, "Kick them away, or throw them back." After saying that, he kicked a fire hammer away with a single arrow step, and the fire hammer smashed into the city wall and exploded, blowing the city wall out of a crater slightly, encouraged by him, the soldiers began to follow suit in a hurry, and the light of the explosion kept vibrating - a miracle happened, this round of fire bomb throwing, actually only killed and injured a few people.

"Long live the Emperor!" At this time, the emperor's officers and soldiers who were lying on the ground all got up and ran with a shout, and the special iron ladder (in case of iron fire explosion) was clattered against the city wall, and began to swarm upwards, in order to prevent burning damage, the first group of soldiers to jump up all carried shields, and from end to end wrapped in wet felt cloaks.

"The enemy is crawling up." The soldiers of the People's Army behind the fort began to follow the dog's foot wood, grasped the axe, erected the iron fork, and the oil fire canister hanging under it, although it was full of dense arrow feathers, still dangled and did not fall, and there was still a roaring fire, "cut the lead short, don't give them a chance to kick away and throw." As the officers of the Civilian Army shouted, the rest of the men took iron scissors and cut off the leads of the iron hammers one by one, and then lit them with fire sickles, and the grenadiers roared and threw them one by one along the shooting holes or between the battlements.

When the black iron fire was rolled down again, the brave Plonian knight did not have time to think twice, and rushed to pick it up and throw it away, but when he raised his arm, a red light exploded with flames and stumps—the iron fire that cut the lead exploded in advance, and soon the knight's head and neck were covered with flames and wounds, and his broken arm hung like a dead branch, and he snorted in pain and despair, and was still subconsciously looking for his severed hand among the dead bodies everywhere, but he couldn't bear it for a while, He personally drew his sword with his remaining hand and killed himself.

After the death of such a brave man, the ladders that the emperor's soldiers had desperately built were constantly overturned and pushed down by the defenders with iron forks and hooks, and the soldiers could not bear it anymore, and they scrambled to discard almost all the equipment and equipment despite the supervision of the arrow team behind them, and the tide of rout.

The next night, the Emperor's army again went around the city and attacked the Nationalist camp on the flank of the Crab Formation: this time the Seleucian Civilians also learned their lesson, and when the Emperor's archers fired on the perimeter, they erected planks and wooden poles along the camp, lurking behind them, and when the Emperor's spearmen began to advance, the Nationalists used the Flames to shoot out the flames, burning the armor, equipment, and even the flesh of the attackers. Subsequently, when the emperor's soldiers began to crowd and climb over the ditch, the people's army would bravely throw iron fire through the wooden fence, and after the brilliant fireworks burst out countless beautiful rays in the night sky, the emperor's soldiers and horses could only run away like rabbits, leaving behind the corpses full of ditches.

"Both attacks were ineffective, and fifteen hundred people were killed and wounded." The annoyed and aggrieved veteran Harold gasped and pressed the token and the watch book in front of the imperial ink officer, "As a result, the order from His Majesty is still to attack." If we continue to fight like this for three more days, the backbone soldiers will all be killed, so can we rely on our men and horses to exhaust the terrifying fire of Gawain in order to win? ”

The Imperial Ink Officer Meles also looked heavy and uneasy, "The enemy has complete fortifications, powerful fire barrels and fire pipes, and there are additional camp reserves behind them. Is the emperor angry? Gamble with the national fortunes of the empire. ”

"You have to be critical!" Harold is straightforward.

"The order is to cease fighting on all fronts, and the camp is resting except for the garrison, treating the wounded and burying the dead, and all the responsibilities are on my shoulders." Meles was no longer ambiguous, "I have come to write to the emperor in person, asking His Majesty to withdraw from the army. ”

When the fierce and sincere letter of the Imperial Ink Officer was delivered to the Emperor's imperial camp, Alexios was confronting the Gawain army with his troops and horses in vain against the Gawain army backed by the Little Antioch Castle.

The Emperor was heartbroken to learn of the serious failure of the attack on the camp of Milio Sepharon, and at the same time sent to him the contents of a report from a spy in the city of Rome, which had been delivered two months earlier, which once again confirmed the rumors that the Holy See of St. Peter of Rome was sick and dying.

But Odar. Before his death, Urban also sent a series of urgent letters, asking the emperor and Gawain and other pilgrims to stop fighting peacefully and jointly deal with the Turks on the plateau, which was also the primary goal of the second wave of the Eastern Crusade, for which 150,000 people and hundreds of the most noble and brave knights were already in place, just waiting for the emperor to make the right gesture, he could cross the Marimara Sea, and fight desperately for the emperor on the plateau.

The Emperor sighed slightly, rolled up the letter paper, and put his fingers on his forehead, "Pilgrims have swept through this world by hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, from one end to the other, for me, has opened the magic box of disaster...... )
