But who can say clearly about the battlefield? The forward catapult phalanx under the city has just been completed, the rear catapult is being dismantled and moving forward, and the shield phalanx clearing the road has not yet completely cleared the road, and the rear army has already begun to move.

Several armies swarmed towards the fortress regardless of priority, with the shield phalanx in front, the crossbowmen and infantry phalanx behind, and these cavalry phalanxes in the middle, and rows of extra-long ladders also moved forward in the phalanx. There was even a cavalry of about four or five thousand men, without any cover at all, and quickly went straight to the fortress gates.

Lan Xian'er, who was standing at the head of the city, finally showed a rare beautiful smile. The enemy camp seems to attack the fortress in an organized manner, but in fact the armies of all walks of life do not listen to the orders and organize their own strong attacks, such an army seems to be strong, but in fact, it is strong outside and capable in the middle, and there is no mutual tacit understanding and no cooperation in actual combat, which can be regarded as a rabble. The title of earl of Aradd's bounty is indeed very tempting, and if he himself knew that his bounty order would cause his coalition army to fight independently for merit, and even turn his face and confront Xiao Qiang in the end, he really didn't know what it would be like.

With Lan Xian'er temporarily commanding at the head of the city and stabilizing his position, Shante was able to withdraw, and immediately ordered to transfer nearly 20,000 cavalry from all the cavalry and concentrate on the horse training ground! 20,000 cavalry is the last complete force of the Giskol fortress, the infantry, crossbowmen and baggage are not right, more than half of the cavalry has already been lost in the process of defending the city, the cavalry will only be useful in the defense of the city and counterattack, but the defense itself will not have any effect at all. Since the summer offensive, the Giscoll fortress has been in a passive situation, Shante has always called in crossbowmen, infantry and baggage, the cavalry seems to have long been forgotten by everyone, no one would have thought that the Gisquel fortress will have a counterattack one day.

"General Ullin!" At the training ground, Shante said to Ulin earnestly, "The Marshal asked me to entrust this important task to you, which shows that the Marshal attaches great importance to you!" This is the last hole card of our fortress, victory is success, defeat is death without a place to be buried! 20,000 people, you arrange it yourself! After leaving the city, the Giskov fortress will be completely closed, and you will have no reinforcements, no way out, only courage! Originally, I told the marshal that I would personally lead the troops into battle, but unfortunately the marshal didn't allow it, I really envy you! ”

Ulin said excitedly, "General, this is the honor of the last general!" ”

After Ulin finished speaking, he turned around and shouted loudly to the army: "We will march on the corpses of the enemy!" ”

"Walk on the corpses of the enemy!"

"Walk on the corpses of the enemy!"

……

A loud roar echoed throughout the racecourse, from near and far......

……

The cavalry of four or five thousand men in the Arad coalition army who moved forward quickly raised clouds of dust and smoke, and suddenly a huge sound of arrows pierced the sky, and then only a huge explosion was heard in midair, followed by two arrows in succession, and two loud explosions.

The opposing armies are wondering, is this a signal arrow, an order for a general attack? But how could the general attack order be issued with signal arrows?

Just as the other soldiers on both sides were wondering what the intention of the three arrows was, the cavalry sped up and rushed towards the city gate.

In response, the fortress gates slowly opened, and when the gates were fully opened, the cavalry vanguard entered the fortress just in time. Everyone was amazed, including the Arad coalition forces above and below the city, this kind of combination of techniques and tactics can be so seamlessly coordinated, in this moment of rapid change on the battlefield, it can become the key to affecting the overall victory or defeat.

Lan Xian'er, who was standing above the city, was still calm, no one noticed it, but there was a strange smile on her face.

Behind the fortress is the Luojia River Plain, a smooth road, without any terrain barriers, and a few thousand cavalry charging at high speed will become a nightmare for any opponent.

However, it is a pity that it was not the defenders of the Fifth Legion who had the nightmare, but the four or five thousand cavalry, as well as the rabble of hundreds of thousands outside the city.

Horse rejection piles, stumbling ropes, countless traps...... First of all, it became a nightmare to storm the cavalry ranks of the fortress.

"Strike back!" The blue fairy above the city shouted loudly.

The messengers beside Lan Xian'er quickly sent flags to the command platform, and then the three drums sounded, and the shield soldier phalanx that was originally standing at the head of the city quickly retreated, and hundreds of operators uncovered sixty or seventy huge green cloths, revealing sixty or seventy brand-new repeater chariots. At this most critical juncture, when these chariots fell into the eyes of most of the soldiers in the city, everyone was filled with complicated eyes, some doubts, some excited, and some helpless......

Sixty or seventy repeater chariots were majestically displayed in front of everyone, and all the operators were in place, carrying out their own standardized movements step by step.

"All chariots ready, targets, enemy formations, catapult phalanxes, single shots!" The herald shouted.

More than thirty crossbow car assistants immediately lit the arrows in the arrow box, and suddenly the smoke billowed above the city, and all the watchers immediately raised their flags to signal the completion of preparations.

Immediately, another herald held the green flag in his hand high, and with Lan Xian'er's "launch-" order, the green flag in the herald's hand quickly fell.

"Whoosh-" "Whoosh-" With a loud whistling sound, dozens of *, dozens of rockets slashed into the air, along the parabolic trajectory, rushing towards the opposing catapult phalanx.

In addition to the cavalry phalanx, most of the other coalition troops carrying ladders had already crossed their own catapult phalanx, and were about to set up ladders under the city to storm the fortress, and at the same time, since the gate had been opened, many cavalry also followed the first cavalry to enter the city and rushed to the city gate.

Just as all the attackers of the fortress were preoccupied with the start of the siege of the city, the loud howl almost tore through the ears of the people who could not be caught off guard, and shook everyone's hearts.

I saw rockets, * flying towards the catapult phalanx. Puff puff, * before reaching the catapult phalanx, it had already landed, and unfortunately the infantry phalanx was swarming, and the huge impact caused a burst of blood mist.

The rockets fell into the catapult phalanx, and dozens of rockets, to the two hundred or so giant catapults, were simply sinking into the sea, and could not stir up any ripples at all.

The average ballista also has more than a hundred meters, which is not at all surprising and is expected by the opponent. But although the ultra-long-range range of the rocket surprised the opponent, it was a pity that the number was too small to worry about, and the opponent secretly laughed at this insignificant dying struggle in his heart.

Haven't waited for anyone to react. "Boom, boom—" Another roar of arrows rang out, and another wave of rockets was sent out again, followed by wave after wave of rockets flying down. "Whoosh-" The loud whistling sound sounded again, followed by the rocket. Three or four waves of rockets, one dial *, continuously

In the first wave of rockets, a small number of rocket arrows that hit the catapult pierced into the wooden catapult, and the arrows were wrapped in cotton cloth stained with fire oil, which immediately set the catapult on fire.

The shield phalanx in front of the catapult phalanx was originally to protect the catapult phalanx from being attacked by bows and infantry at close range, and generally only the bow and arrow at close range could pose a threat to the catapult, so the shield soldiers were basically decorations at this distance, but no one could have imagined that the arrows that flew down from the city could also shoot to a distance of one hundred and thirty or forty meters, and the giant catapult was originally much higher than the shield phalanx, so these shield phalanxes were simply useless in front of the arrows issued by the repeater chariot.

Just as the catapult support personnel stepped forward to extinguish the fire, the second and third waves of rockets followed, shooting into the giant catapult phalanx that had been installed or had not yet been installed.

The catapult that caught fire was quickly extinguished by the logistics staff, but more arrows with fire flew in, overwhelming the phalanx of catapults in a hurry, and gradually the local formation was in chaos.

At the same time, the * car also began to pose a huge threat to the infantry phalanx attacking the fortress, such a dense attack, to the surprise of all the generals of the coalition army, how many ballistas were put into battle? Isn't the ballista phalanx on the city pass almost destroyed?

It is true that the number of repeater chariots on the city pass is too small, and even if they deal an effective blow to the target, they still do not attract the attention of the generals of the Arad coalition army, and they take it for granted that the opponent is desperate and desperate. But what awaits them will be a nightmare after a sustained blow.

The catapult phalanx soon began to organize an effective counterattack, because the improvement in accuracy also caused a lot of confusion to the crossbow chariot phalanx on the city pass, but the shield soldier phalanx on the city effectively reduced the pressure on the repeater chariots, and the damaged repeater chariots were quickly cleaned up, and then the new repeater chariots were reinstalled to replenish them.

The first arrow magazine of the bow and arrow cart was launched with twenty-five rockets in less than a minute, but the effect was not ideal, and Lan Xian'er had to immediately adjust her tactics, from the pre-random search for targets to three repeating crossbow chariots Bow and arrow carts to continuously strike at one target, so that even if only half of the rockets hit the catapult, the catapult must accept no less than thirty or forty rockets in a minute, under such a dense attack, no one is willing to risk their lives to extinguish the fire on the catapult.

Crossbowmen also began to fire arrows at enemies near the fortress from above the walls. Throughout the fortress, within a hundred and fifty meters of the city walls, and beyond, all enemy soldiers were attacked by long-range fury from the walls of the fortress.

Although the number of repeater chariots is small, the high-speed firing and superior lethality of the crossbow vehicles terrify the enemy, especially when they are fired with a loud sound, which shakes people's hearts.

A few puffs of smoke gradually rose from the catapult phalanx in the distance, and then more than a dozen catapults finally caught fire, and then more catapults had to accept the high-speed precision strikes of the crossbow chariots above the fortress. Although the accuracy of the opponent's catapult has been greatly improved, after all, compared to the accuracy of the ballista, it is much worse, and only half of it is put into battle, and the reload time is too long, so it will not pose too much threat to the crossbow chariot phalanx at the head of the city.

For more than a month, the soldiers of the Giskol Fortress, who had been holding their stomachs for a while, finally let out a bad breath. After a month of bombardment by catapults, they did not dare to come out, and today seeing the retribution of catapults, all the soldiers in the city began to get excited, sweeping away the decline of a few minutes ago, and their fighting spirits were high.

However, for the Arad coalition army, the nightmare has only just begun, and a huge conspiracy is also brewing in the fortress city......
