Chapter 8: The Seizure of the Fortified City
"Let the soldiers pack up and prepare to retreat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Galen said to the general beside him.
"Wait." Winston stopped Galen's orders.
Galen asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" β
By now, despite many twists and turns, the war had developed as expected, and it was time to present his full plan to Galen.
Winston gathered his thoughts for a moment and said, "Are you going to let the soldiers wear back from the Kara Swamp again?" β
Galen heard what was in his words and asked directly, "What do you have in mind?" β
"Rectify the troops and horses, attack Fort Ander from the east, and plan for His Highness to attack the city!"
Winston's words exploded like a bombshell in Galen's ear. Galen asked suspiciously: "We are cavalry running, and we don't have any siege equipment, how can we attack Fort Anderburg." β
Winston pointed to the corpses of Noxian sergeants all over the ground and said, "Pretend to be Noxian reinforcements and let Anderburg open the door himself!" β
"This is really a crazy plan, if it is discovered, it is stuck between Anderburg and Rousseau, and we can easily be wiped out without supplies!" Galen was completely blown away by Winston's thoughts.
Whether it is from the task given by the system, or from the point of view of Jiawen's hasty dispatch of troops due to pride, this time Demacia is bound to lose, since the overall situation is no longer able to stop, then Winston can only continue to increase the details. He spared no effort to persuade Galen, "We are cavalry, and we will definitely arrive before the Noxus army breaks and reports to Anderburg." Besides, I believe that the warriors of Demacia would be more willing to open the gates of Fort Anderburg to meet His Highness Gawain than to retreat from the Cara Marsh. β
Galen glanced at the soldiers around him, looked at the eager gaze in their eyes, and gritted his teeth, "Pass the order, change into the armor of Noxus, and we will go to Fort Anderburg!" β
Now that the decision has been made, Galen is not entangled, and his face has returned to his former fortitude, and he said with a little emotion: "I really don't know why you cowardly guy came up with such a crazy plan in his head!" β
"Because geniuses are all crazy!" Winston smirked.
Galen rarely didn't hit Winston, and the corners of his mouth pursed slightly, "Maybe." β

Anderburg
Shouting to kill the heavens, Demacia's army array slammed into the city walls like a tidal wave. Marquis Andre was dressed in chain armor, and stood at the head of the city with a calm face, loudly encouraging morale.
The Andre family has been sealed in Fort Anderburg on the front line of Noxus and Demacia for generations, and is regarded as the mainstay of Noxus with its mighty and loyal heritage. Gavin had already guessed that Endeburg would be a tough battle before attacking, but he didn't expect that Endeburg would be so difficult to overcome.
Demacia's hoplites attacked the city in countless numbers, but were driven down by the private troops led by the Marquis of AndrΓ© himself, and the armies of Demacia and Noxus engaged in a brutal tug-of-war at Fort Anderburg.
Jiawen, who was sitting below, wanted to go into battle in person several times, but was pulled back by the generals around him.
Looking at the enemy soldiers who were about to attack again, Marquis Andrei shouted urgently: "Fire oil, use fire oil quickly!" β
"My lord, the oil is gone!" The quartermaster responded.
"Then use hot water."
"My lord, there aren't enough stones."
"Gather the people in the fort, demolish the house and take stones, even if the buildings in Fort Ander are emptied, we must ensure the normal supply of ordnance!"
Suddenly, one of the attendants threw Marquis AndrΓ© to the ground, shouting, "It's the Usher archers of Demacia!" Beware, lord! β
The sound of locusts breaking through the air sounded, and the sound of arrows entering the flesh was heard in Andrei's ears, and blood splattered on his face.
Seeing the death of his long-time attendants, Andre let out a beast-like howl, "Kill all this group of Demacia!" β
After several rounds of sword rain, more Demacian troops rushed up. Pushing the squire's corpse away, AndrΓ© pulled out the technical fencing strapped around his waist and stabbed the throat of a Demacian soldier who had just climbed to the top of the city. At this moment, only blood can calm the anger of Marquis Andrei!
β¦β¦
On the east side of Fort Anderburg, a hoplite marched quickly to the outer walls of the fortress.
An officer wearing a tiger-striped shawl stepped forward and said, "Open the city gate quickly, and come to reinforcements on the orders of the lord." β
The city guard poked his head out of the city wall and looked at the troops, "Even if it's reinforcements, why are you here here?" β
Winston, who looked like an officer, replied unhurriedly, "The Commander is worried about the battle ahead, so let's go first." Hurry up and open the city gates, delay the military situation and ask you to look good. β
The city guard said, "Please show me your lord's seal." β
Winston frowned, and roared fiercely: "I told you that we are the vanguard, and the seal is still in the hands of the general." Are you going to open this door or not! β
The city guard officer looked embarrassed: "My lord, this is really difficult for the lower officials to do without a seal." β
Winston said angrily: "Our brother has come all the way to support, but you refused to accept it. Okay, I'll take my brothers back, and the lord will have an explanation. β
Seeing that Winston really turned around and left, the city guard officer also panicked, although it was a military regulation to check the seal letter, but because of this, he drove away the reinforcements and led to the fall of Anderberg, and he was afraid that he could not afford to bear the crime, this unit came from the rear of Anderburg, and it was wearing a Noxian standard military uniform, so there was no problem in thinking about it: "My lord, wait!" I will open the gates of the city. β
The corners of Winston's mouth curled, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword, and he secretly gestured to Galen beside him.
"Squeak!"
The gate slowly opened, and the city guard officer and a few subordinates were just about to go out of the city to greet him, when he saw Winston shouting: "Warriors, the city gate has been opened, kill!" β
The sudden change stunned the city guard officer, and shouted inarticulately: "Quick, close the city gates!" β
Unfortunately, it was too late, and the covert gaze fixed on him, and Winston leaped forward, his thin sword piercing his throat.
Drawing his sword and spurting blood, Winston knew that he had integrated into the war of this world, and he would not hesitate, let alone relent, "Galen, you lead the troops to attack the city, and I will attack the granary and the armory!" β
"Be careful yourself!" Galen ordered two hundred men and attacked the wall west of Fort Anderburg.
β¦β¦
The veteran Gagil noticed the commotion in the city, pointed to the city and said, "Your Highness, look! β
"The enemy is in disarray!" Jiawen also saw the clue and hesitated, "Could it be a trap?" β
Gagill said: "Probably not, this Anderburg is far from the point of exhaustion, there is no need to take such a risk to lure our army. Please give me an army, Your Highness, and I will definitely take down the city walls!" β
Jiawen laughed proudly, "Since this is an opportunity, then fight with all your might, and order the whole army to press, I will personally attack Fort Anderburg!" β
