Chapter Seventy-Five: The Siege and Defense of the Seine City (Part II)
"Old man, do you think we can defeat them with just one time this time?"
Rawls asked Turner and Hawes, their armies had already rushed to the bottom of the city, and many of the soldiers of the Golden Griffin Legion had even rushed to the outer city of the city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Of course, the Hiss army is weaker than we thought, and if you look at the people on the towers, it won't take long to be wiped out! Moreover, now our army is about to attack! ā
Turner was as confident as ever, and he didn't think Seine City would be able to withstand their attack with those few thousand men right now.
"Can't be careless, I always feel that they haven't used all their strength, you see, those soldiers on the city tower are not very flustered at all, which means that they still have a backhand!"
Hawes wasn't sure they could take the Seine all at once, and although they were in a good situation right now, he always felt that something was wrong.
But if you look closely, it seems that they have no mistakes, the enemy's artillery is now in use, although their own long-range troops have suffered heavy casualties, but at least they have succeeded in pinning down the enemy's artillery, and now the howitzer is very difficult to attack them, after all, the range of the howitzer is four to fifty miles, he can hit far, but he can't hit his feet.
"I hope it's just my delusion!"
Hawes muttered that the declaration of independence of the city of Seine had indeed had a huge impact on the kingdom, and they, as soldiers of the kingdom, had to suppress this rebellion.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
But not long after Hoyce and the others finished their discussion, bombs began to rain under the city of Seine.
Because of the 'M' shape of the outer city of Seine, this shape is more suitable for defense than the direct 'one' shape, which can reduce the space occupied by the attacker and increase the space of the defender.
It was precisely because of the 'M' shape that all the attacking Holman Kingdom soldiers were crowded together.
They don't have a good way to deal with this situation, their number is too large, and there is only so much space here.
This also allowed the grenade to exert more lethality, and a single grenade thrown down, in the face of a dense crowd, could often cause more than ten casualties to the army of the attacking Holman Kingdom.
Especially Rawls's Golden Griffin Legion, they are all light cavalry, characterized by being flexible and fast, but in this crowded situation, their advantages cannot be brought into play at all, and in pursuit of speed, they are all wearing light leather armor, which has almost zero defense against grenades!
The heavy troops were better, they were all wearing heavy armor, the horses of the heavy cavalry were also armored, and the heavy infantry were armed to the teeth.
But even so, they were blown up by these grenades, and although there were not many deaths, many were injured.
"It's... What's going on! ā
Rawls shouted at the same time.
They were shocked by what was happening on the battlefield, explosion after explosion, and groups of Holman soldiers falling, what the hell was going on.
They obviously have the advantage and the initiative, why did it suddenly become like this?
Hawes's face was a little pale, and it seemed that his premonition had come true.
But now is not the time to worry about that.
"What should I do, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid the soldiers won't be able to carry it!"
Turner couldn't sit still at first, in fact, it wasn't that the soldiers couldn't carry it, but the elite soldiers he treasured his died first without even touching the corners of the enemy's clothes, which was a little aggrieved, and it wasn't one or two.
"Keep attacking, since they used this trick, it means that they have been forced to a Jedi by us, we just need to resist and increase our strength, and they will be finished!"
"I don't believe it, they still have a trick!"
Rawls said viciously.
In this wave of bombardment, it was his Golden Griffin Legion that suffered the greatest casualties, after all, the weakest defense and rushed to the front. Turner cherishes the soldiers, how can he not be, the soldiers of the three corps here, no matter which one, are the best soldiers in the Holman Kingdom, and they will be heartbroken if they lose any of them!
"The heavy cavalry continues to storm the city gate, the heavy infantry switches defenses, try to protect the surrounding light cavalry, reduce casualties, and the light cavalry continues to attack the city wall, don't stop, continue to work hard, and you can kill them with a little more strength!"
Rawls began to command the flag soldiers to issue battle orders to the soldiers on the front line, and when fighting in that era, when the commander issued orders, many times relied on the flag soldiers waving the order flag to complete the transmission of orders, and even when modern communication tools were not very popular, the army would also use flag language in combat.
"Lord of Hiss, what do they mean by their banners!"
Locke looked at the enemy commander in the distance, where a flag soldier was standing on a tall wooden shelf waving the flag.
"Ah, that's amazing, ah, what? The flag language, oh, their flag language roughly means, to continue the attack, but also to increase the intensity of the attack! ā
Hiss hadn't recovered from the shock he had just had.
Locke is indeed a guy who has always been able to surprise people, they have been struggling to defend, but he immediately got a grenade and bombed, blowing up the enemy on their backs, and their pressure was immediately reduced a lot, and even now many of the Holman soldiers who attacked the city tower were kicked down by them one by one.
"What? After fighting like this, you dare to continue attacking, it's really tenacious, and it's really easy for us to bully! ā
"Since I don't think I can eat enough for the meal just now, then I'll let them eat enough!"
Locke just wanted to give them a little color and make them retreat, but he didn't expect them to be so difficult.
"It looks like they have to be beaten to know they ran away, but Lord Hiss, you have to reimburse me!"
Locke said viciously, and Heath next to him kept looking at Locke with a smile, with this guy here, they basically wouldn't be in any danger, but when he heard the latter sentence, his face changed instantly.
"Don't, don't, Your Excellency Locke, brother, big brother, save some money, I'm about to be squeezed dry by you, you can do it!"
Hearing Locke's words, Heath's face instantly turned cloudy and clear, but now in this situation, Locke wants him to help pay the bill, and he can't refuse!
"It's okay, just pay to watch a firework! Look at the opening point! ā
