"For Darius!"

With a frenzied shout, the soldiers of the 5,000 First Regiment paused for a moment under Fort Grey and then launched an attack on Fort Grey.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Northland, who were the defenders, felt a little short of breath, and the tense atmosphere of the big battle lingered in the hearts of every soldier!

Seeing that the soldiers of the First Legion were about to enter a hundred paces, several commanders hurriedly shouted orders to the archers on the city walls. "Shooter ready!! Shoot!"

With the commander's order, a rain of arrows like locusts crossed an arc and fell towards the First Legion.

"All warriors put up shields! Keep going!"

I saw that the well-trained soldiers of the First Legion neatly raised their shields in their hands before the rain of arrows fell, blocking almost all the arrows.

"Warrior advances, ranged class counterattacks!" With the orders of the infantry commander Ragus, the archers and mages who were protected by the warriors began to counterattack the Northland soldiers on Fort Gray, and there were still a lot of holy lights, and indeed some low-level paladins were also helping to attack.

A wail sounded, and the first wave of the First Legion's counterattack caused many unprepared Northland soldiers to fall to the ground.

Soon the troops came to the city of Fort Grey, and at this time, Augustine on the city wall gave the order with a sneer on the corner of his mouth:

"What are you waiting for, adjust my bed crossbow and shoot it where there are the most people."

After receiving the order of his lord, he only heard a 'boom', and a crossbow arrow the thickness of an arm shot out with a black shadow.

I saw that the giant crossbow arrow that flew down pierced through a warrior's half-body shield lightly, and then left a large hole with the thickness of a bowl mouth on the upper body of this warrior, not only that, but after this giant crossbow arrow pierced through this warrior, it also pierced through the three people behind him in a row, just like a string of sugar gourds, and finally this giant crossbow arrow swooped and plunged deep into the ground.

With this crossbow arrow, the bed crossbows on Fort Gray shot out arm-thick crossbow arrows, setting off patches of blood.

"There's a bed crossbow, everyone disperses!" Seeing the three soldiers around her being pierced in an instant, Twilight was shocked into a cold sweat and hurriedly reminded the soldiers around her loudly.

There are ten of them on Twilight's Watch Fort, which is a lethal weapon that Twilight bought at a great price, not to mention others, even if he and Dumb were shot, they definitely didn't run, I didn't expect Fort Gray to have such a dangerous weapon.

For a time, the bed crossbow brought a lot of damage to the infantry of the first legion, and they had also seen the bed crossbow, of course, they knew how to dodge the bed crossbow, but they saw that the originally dense soldiers quickly scattered and separated, because of the angle problem on the city wall, as long as the soldiers were separated, then the lethality of the bed crossbow would be minimized.

Then the soldiers of the First Legion began to attack the twelve-meter-high city wall, and the soldiers of the Northland could not imagine that the soldiers under the same armor had five hundred royal knights above the fifth order, the elite of the elite, so suddenly there were several escalators that rushed forward with special ferocity, and they couldn't stop it at all.

"Quick! Fast! Rolling stones and oaks are ready! Fast! Fast! ”

"Damn, do you want to die, boy! You dare to wander when fighting! ”

"Get moving! Let's all move! Don't panic! Throw it again if you look at it. ”

"Shooter, shoot me all the arrows from your back! Aim at those who rush up and shoot me in the heads of those green skins in a moment! ”

"Bed crossbow, bed crossbow, damn it! Flip the bed crossbow over and aim at the person on the escalator! ”

"When others come up, be steady, don't panic me, stab those who come up to me!"

"Hold the spear in your hand steadily, don't be in a hurry to stab, see the right time..."

More than a dozen officers in positions kept shouting and commanding the soldiers under their command! But it can be seen that they were also taken aback by the combat effectiveness of the First Legion, and more Northland soldiers were subconsciously using the things they trained on weekdays to meet the First Legion!

At this moment, the lord of the Northlands, Augustine, was standing behind the battlements of a city wall a little farther away, and was holding the broadsword in his hand with a solemn face looking at the fierce Darius troops, he shouted loudly for the soldiers to resist, and even let the bed crossbow turn around and shoot at the Darius soldiers who immediately climbed the wall.

Soon, with the help of the ranged professions in the rear, more than a dozen royal knights bravely climbed to the top of the city, but they were greeted by crossbow arrows with the thickness of their arms.

Even though the royal knights are strong, the city wall is so big, and there are soldiers all around, so there is no way to dodge, so what awaits them is only death, but they are buried with countless soldiers from the Northland who have been turned into sugar gourds, obviously killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, perhaps in the eyes of Augustin, he will not care how many of his soldiers die.

Can't fight like this, watching the royal knights being shot on the city wall or escalator, Twilight secretly said to herself, the royal knights have lost too much in this way, and these are the strongest in a hundred.

At this moment, Dreyus, who was in the rear, was also frowning, he was very happy that there were soldiers who quickly attacked the city wall, but he didn't expect to be killed quickly, he also saw that those bed crossbows began to deal with people who couldn't dodge and cross the city wall on the escalator, seeing this, Dreyus also knew that he couldn't fight like this, after all, it was just a tentative attack, and he gave the herald an order to retreat.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Twilight breathes a sigh of relief at the sound of a drum with a special frequency coming from behind, this is the drum sound of Mingjin's troops.

At that moment, the soldiers of the First Legion began to retreat from the bottom of Fort Gray in an orderly manner, but on the way back, hundreds more died under the crossbows.

"I'm sorry Your Highness, I disappointed you." When Saric walked into Dreyus's tent, he immediately pleaded guilty in shame, as did Ragus in the rear.

"It's not your fault, it's my negligence, I didn't expect Augustine to have so many bed crossbows, just now can only be regarded as a tentative attack, we'll come back when the trebuchet is built." Dreyus patted Saric on the shoulder.

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince." Saric exclaimed.

After arranging the wounded and letting the returning soldiers rest, the trebuchet had been set up, and Dreyus began to ask the soldiers to mine stones nearby, after all, he could carry the trebuchet, and those big stones that three or four people could hold with him.

With the trebuchet, it would not be much of a problem for the First Legion to attack Fort Grey, and after the previous battle, they already knew that Fort Grey did not have any large protective arrays, and there was a reinforcement technique to survive.

However, the reinforcement technique can't resist the stone of the trebuchet, the trebuchet is still the mainstream in the construction machinery in these years, the magic cannon is still too rare, and the cannon is ten thousand taels of gold, although the magic cannon is powerful, but the consumption is too strict, far less real than the trebuchet.
