Chapter 297: The Fire

Previous Chapter

The horse's hooves rumbled, and the commander of the 1st Corps squinted, he was observing the enemy's movements.

"My lord, our infantry has sent back a message that they have encountered fierce resistance in the city, and they are asking for reinforcements!"

"It should be almost!" a deputy commander looked at the Legion Commander, "Your Excellency, give the order!"

It seems that they really want to fight street battles with the Capet family, the commander of the first legion nodded, in addition to the cavalry, the number of infantry in the legion also accounts for more than 20%, even if it is a street battle, it must be easy to defeat.

Nodding, the commander of the first corps waved his hand and said, "Infantry brigade, prepare to enter the city!"

Banners were waved, and columns of infantry marched in the direction of the city gates, which had been breached, the dilapidated gates had been burned, and the infantry had cleared the way for the cavalry.

......

"Where are our reinforcements?" In the Polish city, the defenders who came to encircle the Capetian soldiers were met with unprecedented resistance, the opponents were more capable of fighting than they could have imagined, and as time went on, they found a large army of the enemy moving in this direction!

"My lord, my lord, it's time for us to retreat!" a soldier tugged at the captain, "the other side's large army is coming, we must leave as soon as possible." ”

"The commander's order is to defend the outer city! Do you want to escape?" the captain grabbed the soldier's collar and roared angrily: "Behind are the military judges and the firing squad, if not in the hands of the enemy, they will die in the hands of their own people!"

The soldier glanced back at the indifferent expression of the military judge dozens of meters away, and the spears and arrows in their hands flashed with a terrifying chill.

"Do we have any reinforcements?" the soldier swallowed, he had been fighting for nearly an hour, his companions were dying in a large way, and although the other side also suffered casualties, they could be replenished soon, and his own side was slow to see the reinforcements coming.

"Yes, there must be!" the captain repeated both sides in a row, not knowing whether it was to convince his subordinates or to convince himself.

The street battle was more chaotic than the plain battle, and some soldiers were red-eyed, waving their swords and slashing together, only to find that they were actually their companions who had been fighting for a long time.

In this case, both manslaughter and manslaughter are quite normal.

"It should be almost over, the herald reported that the enemy's large forces had begun to march into the city. The military judge nodded, "Let the soldiers retreat to the inner city and lure the enemy to the inner city." ”

"When, when, when!" the loud bell rang over Poland City.

As the bell rang, soldiers dressed in the uniforms of Poland City poured out from all directions, quickly joining the battle group and turning the chaotic tide of the battle in an instant.

"Our reinforcements have finally arrived!" said one soldier, relieved, but quickly reacted.

The bell ringing in the sky represents the ......

Fall back?

......

"They're chasing in!" Gust stood on the highest watchtower, watching the soldiers in the black armor of the Capetian family pour into Poland City, a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Let them chase a little deeper, a little deeper." ”

"Hey, don't you think the command is strange?" In the ranks of the soldiers of Poland City, someone asked his companions around him: "Reinforcements arrived, but we abandoned the outer city, and the defense of the inner city was even more empty, how could we defeat the enemy in the inner city?"

"Who knows, maybe there's something in the inner city," the soldiers who were questioned gasped, their arms already shaking, the fierce battle made them a little disengaged, the adrenaline rush during the battle did not feel the abnormality of their bodies, but when they broke away from the warband, they realized that they had actually overdrawn to this point.

While fighting and retreating, the infantry of the Capetian family was menacing, following closely behind them.

After a few skirmishes, the Polish family lost hundreds of soldiers.

Ahead was the gate of the inner city, and the soldiers who were being chased shouted at the city: "Open the gates!

But there was no reaction from the top of the city, and the heavy inner gate was blocked.

Standing at the head of the city, Gust watched the pursuing soldiers of the Capet family approaching more and more, and shouted at the soldiers below: "Soldiers, we have no way out, right here, right here!

Brush Brush Brush!

Neatly lined up with spears, the gates of the inner city opened, and a group of soldiers who had been waiting for a long time poured out.

"There's no way back...... Gust repeated in a low voice, the Capetian soldiers had reached the inner gates, and he could even make out the hideous expression on the face of the soldier at the front.

"Let's start fighting!"

The scuffle began again, and the soldiers of the Capetian family were so fierce that they suppressed the soldiers of Poland City under the city gates with just a glance.

The sword flashed, screaming again and again.

Flying flesh and severed limbs create a terrible hell outside the inner door.

Slash, draw the knife.

The soldiers seemed to have turned into the most primitive beasts, and they only wanted to knock down and kill the enemy in front of them.

"Go ahead, let's get carried out. Gust nodded with satisfaction, judging by the current situation, no one would be able to separate the two sides in the melee in a short period of time, which was exactly what he wanted to see.

The scuffle continued, but neither of the warring sides was aware of it, and some kind of viscous liquid slowly overflowed from the waterways on both sides, accompanied by a pungent smell.

The soldiers of the Capetian family were still pouring into the inner city, and the soldiers of Poland City were obviously unable to hold on, but Gust had a satisfied smile on his face.

Soon someone noticed something strange underneath, and an officer of the 2nd Infantry Brigade of the Capetian family threw away the saber that had been curled in his hand, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of a similar slime under his boot.

"This is ......" He was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and rubbed it a little, and soon his face changed: "Tar!"

Suddenly a cold sweat broke out, and he froze in place, thinking of the retreat and retreat of the soldiers of the Polish family, and a strong sense of foreboding surged in his heart.

"Retreat! This place must be evacuated immediately!" his eyes widened.

However, before he could shout, the flames around him had already risen, like a wild dragon, encircling from all directions.

The firelight reflected the sky crimson, and the scorching aura suddenly enveloped the entire outer city.

The officer stared at Gust at the head of the city, this guy's methods were so ruthless, could it be that even the soldiers of Poland City refused to let go?

"It's on fire!"

"Quick, retreat!"

"Open the gates, let us go!" a soldier from Poland tapped desperately at the inner gates.

The fire was extremely fast, and in just two minutes, the outer city was already in flames.
