………………
The flames have been roaring, and the architectural style of the inner city is originally a brick and stone structure, which is also mixed with a lot of fine wood and fine yarn and other decorations, which are exquisite on weekdays, but they are also the best choice for flame attachment!
The sea breeze was still blowing slightly, but the red light appeared in the area of the inner city near the city gate, and a large number of houses began to catch fire, especially when the 24-pounder howitzers and 4-inch mortars outside the city walls were still quickly releasing incendiary bombs, plunging the entire inner city into a sea of fire.
There was a crackling sound, it was a blazing fire, and there was a cacophony of shouts throughout the inner city, as if a lot of people were screaming frantically, with misery and disbelief.
No one could have imagined that incendiary bombs could actually shoot through the walls and shoot directly at residential areas, but the war is so ruthless that it is not impossible to destroy even an entire city, just some incendiary bombs, to be honest, cannot completely engulf the entire Gray Mist City.
A large number of people began to put out the fire, including the town hall and the servants of the nobles, all of whom were carrying buckets to extinguish the fire at this time, although the fire seemed to be very large, igniting a few houses and starting to spread again, but they were quickly extinguished, and when a huge fire was formed, it was completely extinguished, without causing more casualties.
"Looks like it's a mess inside."
Outside the city wall, Wilmot's eyes shrank slightly, looking at the black smoke rising inside, the artillery next to him fired another salvo, and more than twenty incendiary bombs were re-thrown into all corners of the inner city, and it didn't take long for another wisp of black smoke to appear, which had obviously ignited many houses again.
The Barbary pirates around him have now withdrawn, cultivating minor injuries and treating serious injuries, but more people have a bit of hatred on their faces, because they did not attack the city wall, which is equivalent to being defeated. This was a rather uncomfortable siege, they did not even seize the lower city wall, but chose to retreat under the dense rain of arrows of the enemy!
"Keep waiting."
Levi shook his head, he didn't have much thought about this tentative attack. After all, attacking a city that has been prepared in advance, with only a few thousand of them, it is really too difficult.
If it weren't for the troops of Gray Mist City, they had not yet adapted to the combat style of the modern troops, and they were afraid that the instantaneous casualties suffered by their own side during the field battle were too great to even maintain their morale, and it was estimated that their troops would have been encroached upon and eaten up a long time ago, and they would not be able to continue to attack the inner city walls of Gray Mist City.
What Levi has to do now is to let the garrisons inside taste what it means to be afraid, especially when a large number of incendiary bombs fall from the sky and ignite the buildings in Grey Mist City, these garrisons will eventually panic on their own.
In fact, there has indeed been a lot of turmoil inside the current Gray Mist City, although there are no butchers who take advantage of the fire to rob, but a large number of buildings have begun to burn, and many people have found that they have not been able to put out the fire in time, even if they have extinguished the flames of a house, but a building outside the street has already produced a fire.
And before they could get there, the incendiary bombs continued to fall from the sky, setting fire to another building three streets away, almost exhausted!
"Really, a terrifying way to attack."
Knight Strong was also a little frightened now, although he had comprehended the fighting spirit, but in the face of this flame that fell from the sky like a meteor, he was also extremely shocked in his heart: "Now it seems that even those magicians in the Mage Tower can't cause so many flames, right?" ”
"Mage Tower? They can't. Baron Charleson gritted his teeth slightly, the knight's sword in his hand was clenched, but there was not much he could do, although they were the strongest force stationed at the city gate, but more of them were the strongest in the field.
Taking a deep breath, Baron Charleson also sensed the scorching smell in the air, and the fires that had been extinguished were still emitting black smoke, which spread throughout the entire inner city with the wind, making him can't help but snort coldly: "Although those magicians in the Mage Tower are weird, their range can't catch up with the heavy crossbow, and they can make them die miserably if they are targeted by archers." ”
And now Charleson looked at the incendiary bombs above his head, which had exceeded his psychological expectations, even the once glorious dwarven kingdom did not have such an attack method at all!
Even if you go through any ancient surviving classics, the dwarven cannon is a stone cannon, although the power is indeed very large, but there is absolutely no such range, such a curved attack method, let alone a burning flame in the cannonball, which has never appeared in the dwarf kingdom at all!
Although the accuracy of the 4-inch mortar cannon is slightly worse, the firing range has reached about five kilometers, and the attack distance of more than 5,000 meters has been able to penetrate deep into the inner city of Gray Mist City, the most critical aristocratic area.
"Boom T
There was a sound of the collapse of the city wall, Baron Charleson and Knight Strong turned their heads suddenly, and their faces were a little impressive, on both sides of the collapse range of more than 30 meters of the city wall, with the burst of cannons, there was a large number of collapses, the city wall directly collapsed and fell, and the arrow towers and guard towers above also collapsed and collapsed heavily.
The masterpiece of twenty 12-pounder infantry guns directly caused the collapse of those walls to extend from 30 meters to an area of more than 60 meters, showing the entire inner city buildings almost empty.
"Now it's time to get started."
Levi exhaled slowly, looked at the infantry who were all ready, turned his head and said softly to Wilmot, "Start a general attack." ”
Most of the city walls have collapsed, and the garrisons in the inner city would never have imagined that they would attack at this moment, and now is actually the most critical moment for Levi and them, once they take advantage of the enemy's consternation and panic, then it is absolutely possible to capture this city wall!
What's more, for Levi, he can also replenish his troops anytime and anywhere, as long as he is given enough time, a large number of infantry from the game system can appear in this world and fight a surprise attack on the other side!
"Forward!"
Wilmot did not hesitate at all, and continued to move forward, leading the Barbary pirates, who still had more than 800 people, to move forward first, followed closely by the Spanish privates armed with flintlock muskets, and the Spanish guerrillas on both sides were also mixed in the privates at this time, and followed forward.
The general offensive has begun!
