Chapter 509: Steel Rock Siege Battle (5)

Hearing the bold words of the dwarf engineer master Thomason, the faces of the high-ranking members of the surrounding human coalition forces suddenly showed joy, the faster the war ended, the smaller their consumption became, and a few nimble brains hurriedly took advantage of the situation to pat their ass.

Their intentions are obvious, they want to make a familiar face in front of the dwarves, and maybe they can ask the other party for help in the future? No matter how bad it is, you can sell two cannons! With this thing, wouldn't it be possible to walk sideways in the "border prince's territory"?

Anyone who can become a lord in this chaotic land is not a fool, and the others quickly reacted, and they all surrounded Thomason, causing the master engineer to laugh.

There are only two exceptions.

Fitandila, the lord of "Fetamburg", and Papan, the leader of the "Knights of the Iron Cross" of "Zaris".

The former was cold from beginning to end, as if everything had nothing to do with him, while the latter was quietly observing the others.

Havelock's true identity was already revealed, and after seeing the dwarf appear with his own eyes, Papan was even more sure that the other party must have a very close relationship with the Empire, or that he himself was from the Empire.

The alliance between the largest human country in the old world and the dwarves is well known, and the feud between him and Bretonnia has not been deliberately concealed, so with the stubborn character of the dwarves, no matter how much he says about a knight in Bretonnia, it is impossible to win the friendship of the other party, and he saves him from wasting saliva.

In fact, other lords are the same, if they want to get benefits from the dwarves, they can't just use their mouths, even if they can coax the other party to be happy and relieved, the cost of buying war machines is definitely not something that an ordinary lord can afford.

It's destined to be all in vain.

The Arabi woman could see it.

Papin smiled contemptuously, then turned his horse's head and turned his attention back to the city gate not far away.

No wonder Havelock was so confident before, it turned out that he had secretly asked the dwarves of "Haimen Pass" to help, and in front of their steel cannons, the city walls that Greenskin was proud of were indeed not worth mentioning.

Although the "Dwarven Cannon" does not fire very frequently, every cannonball has accurately smashed near the city gate, and has already smashed several large holes, at this rate, it will not be long before the entire gate will be blown away, and without the protection of the city wall, the green mushroom will definitely lose morale, and in the face of an enemy with absolute superiority in numbers, according to their past performance, it is only a matter of time before the whole line collapses.

Unexpectedly, I really let the "Skinner" capture this most legendary and sturdy fortress in green skin.

As soon as he thought of this, Papan's mood was a little complicated, and a trace of gloom flashed on Junlang's face.

It's not that he doesn't want the human alliance to win, it's just that he can't see Havelock, who has an imperial background, become the biggest winner.

This time, "Zares City" joined the coalition and sent the most powerful knights, so naturally they didn't come to hold back, on the contrary, they really wanted to show their strength in front of others.

Papan's father, the "Knight of the Morning Star" Platini, realized that he had offended too many of the surrounding natives since he took possession of the "City of Zaris", and he needed to take this opportunity to establish good relations with other neutral forces and improve his status in the "Northern Frontier Alliance".

In their hometown of Quinaris, there is a proverb that says, "When a bird flies out alone, it will be shot by a hunter."

The Bretonians didn't want to be the birds they were outcast.

Therefore, Papan came out with a mission this time, whether he could capture the "Steel Rock" or not is still secondary, and he must cut off the greenskin's head as much as possible to show the combat effectiveness of the Bretonnian knights and improve the prestige of himself and the new "Zares City".

However, at this point, Havelock's credit must not be taken away, and Papin can only inform his men to be ready, and wait until the moment the city is broken to launch a charge, so that these hillbillies can see what a real knight is.

The young knight of the kingdom tightened his grip on his long mounted spear.

If you can't be the one who breaks the city, then be the first to rush in!

Many of them felt the same way, and although most of the troops had already rushed towards the walls, those were ordinary soldiers under their respective lords, and a few of the more elite troops remained in place, ready to fight.

According to the rules of the coalition forces, the first party to storm the city will have the right to distribute 30% of the spoils.

The best is yet to come.

As time went on, more and more soldiers climbed the walls with siege ladders, and in order to prevent hurting their companions, the trebuchet stopped firing, but this also gave the greenskins on it a chance to breathe and kill again.

Fierce hand-to-hand combat was staged on every inch of the city walls, and it was impossible to tell the winner for a while.

But the focus of the war was no longer there, and the dwarves' siege weapons did not make the high-level coalition forces wait for long, and after more than half an hour of continuous bombardment, with a loud bang, the heavy iron gate of "Steel Rock" smashed down along with the surrounding walls, and was replaced by a large hole with a height and width of five or six meters.

The city is broken!

The coalition side immediately erupted in a burst of enthusiastic cheers, and the sycophants poured towards Thomason like a tide, but the dwarven engineering master did not indulge in it, on the contrary, his face suddenly became serious, and he loudly ordered the dwarven compatriots to be brought, listening to the meaning, it seemed that something new was about to be introduced.

The mystery is soon revealed.

A siege machine that was larger than the ordinary "cannon", more complex in structure, and more ornately decorated was pushed to the front, and Thomas himself walked over to operate it, and at the same time his triumphant voice sounded:

"This is the latest invention of our Engineers' Guild, called the Flame Cannon, as for the power, you will know it soon, in front of you, don't rush to launch a general attack, don't blame me for any casualties later."

Although Haimen Pass is best known for its steam ironclad ships, the research and development of war machines should not be underestimated, after all, the ships are equipped with cannons, and the main defense facilities of this port are also countless guns.

The Guild of Engineers, led by Thomason, is a bitter rival to another Guild of Ocean Ships, and he has been trying to find ways to invent more powerful weapons to prove who is the most powerful guild in the "Sea Gate Pass".

The flaming cannon was the answer he had worked hard for years.

A chaotic roar came from the battlefield not far away, drawing attention back to the city gates.

After the city was broken, Greenskin didn't tie his hands and was captured, and the old rotten tooth had already prepared for the worst.

In addition to the goblin spearmen and archers on the city wall, he concentrated all the forces at hand, including the more than a thousand orc boys urgently recalled from "Gakisen", all of them stood behind the city gate, just afraid that if the shrimp broke through the city wall, he would be able to counterattack at the first time.

It's just that no one expected this moment to come so quickly.

The old shaman took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the ominous premonition in his heart. Aided by magic, a high-pitched, loud roar erupted from his shriveled and emaciated body.

"Boys! I know you've been waiting impatiently, and these shrimps dare to set foot on our territory and tell me what will happen to them! โ€

"Chop into pรขtรฉ!"

"Chop to shreds!"

"Split into a stick!"

As long as you don't encounter an enemy you can't defeat, the orc kid's momentum will always be so high.

"Well, since they dare to come, don't go! brother Mao brother on top! Rush out! them! No one is allowed to retreat until the stone boss returns! โ€

PS: Don't ask me what day it is, ask in the code word!
