Chapter 843: Breaking the Door
"Now it's up to him to take charge of the city, where are the people of Cleman," roared Dinnoy, who could not forget what had happened here before.
The undead soldiers desperately blocked the onslaught of the cavalry, the rain of arrows poured wildly, and during this time they were also surrounded by English soldiers, and Clerman, who was in charge of support, retreated timidly, leading the two thousand people who were backing up.
If it weren't for that bastard, he wouldn't have been seriously injured, and Scotland's elite soldiers and generals wouldn't have been wiped out in order to break off.
"Please calm down, the Count of Clement is coming," said the nobles who were gathered around frowned, and the actions of the Count of Dinenoy were simply blaspheming the nobles.
"Commander, the casualties have been calculated, one hundred and seventy-one people are missing, twenty-six are slightly wounded, and five are seriously wounded"
The number of wounded soldiers is far less than the number of missing soldiers, and the so-called disappearance is naturally equivalent to death in battle.
"The whole army is ready to continue the attack" Count Dinoy frowned, the figures that were still expected, if it was a regular battle, the losses would definitely be more than that.
Most of the besieging troops were lightly armed, with only a very small number of cavalry, and even less heavy infantry, and the bulky size made the siege a floating cloud.
The light infantry and Burgundian were also generally equipped, only forming an ordinary shield array, and the losses of the cavalry were not serious in many aspects.
"Yes"
"Is the Count of Denoy still ready to go to war?" A voice of surprise sounded, it was not a trivial matter for reinforcements to enter the city, followed by the other nobles, the Count of Cleman, who also dared to come.
It could be seen that his recent condition was not good, his face was slightly pale, and he looked at Count Dinoy in surprise, with a faint fear in his eyes.
“…… The Holy Maiden is waiting for our reinforcements, Count of Clement, and I can leave it alone. Organize an army to go out of the city with me at once."
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Count Dinoy said in a deep voice, time was pressing, and he had no more time to delay him.
"Are you crazy, the English troops outside have an undead army, how can we win without relying on the city walls" recalled the army he saw in that battle. Klemont said in horror.
No matter how much he slashed, he would not die, and when his leg was broken, he held the enemy with both hands and tore his throat with his teeth, which scared him out just by watching it from a distance.
"The army of the undead?" Many nobles showed doubts, and the Count of Clement still knew the severity and did not tell the matter, but after hearing that Dinnoy was going to lead his army out of the city again, he finally couldn't help but say it.
How could it be possible to win in the face of that kind of undead army, and it was precisely because of the impact of that battle. Let him resolutely pursue a defensive policy, and never go out of the city to meet the enemy again.
Only a solid wall could make him feel safe.
"This is not an inquiry, but a request, you have no right to refuse!" Striding up to the Count of Clement, Dinoy's eyes lit up with a fierce glint and his hands clucked.
Dinoy also knew that coercion was not a good method, but at this moment he did not give him more options, and he would talk about it when he got the army.
“…… Well," the smell of blood filled, and the Count of Clemman's throat squirmed. In the end, he nodded reluctantly, he knew that if he didn't agree again, he might not just say it.
……
On the other side of the battlefield. The ground in front of Sanlu Fortress was cratered, and in each pit was a solid iron bullet.
As one of the three core fortresses besieging Orleans, the defense was naturally not sloppy, and even Burgundy specially brought in large cannons at the request of England.
Large cannons, which have been developed only in recent decades, have finally replaced stone shells with iron bullets. The power of the bullet increased dramatically, and the frontal hit of more than 400 kilograms of iron bullets was even more ferocious than some modern weapons.
Arrows and crossbow guns continued to shoot down from the city walls, and the attacking soldiers fell and followed closely behind, the city gates were closed, and the French soldiers who lacked effective siege equipment were difficult to overcome quickly.
On the ladder side, progress has been slow. Even if a soldier fights hard, it will take a certain amount of time.
Joan of Arc's eyes flashed with reluctance, and the first time she went to the battlefield, she saw that life was constantly disappearing, which was quite painful for her, a girl who attached great importance to life in her heart.
"What are you going to do" Standing next to Joan of Arc, Yufeng asked casually, unfortunately Yufeng has long lost the concept of life after living for I don't know how many years, and will become a soul reincarnation after death anyway......
"I'm going to join the fight," Joan of Arc whispered, clutching her sword.
She understands that it is impossible to stop fighting, and that there will be countless battles to expel the invaders, so at least end the fighting as soon as possible and minimize casualties......
The commander's personal presence in the battle can undoubtedly boost morale, especially with the name of the Holy Maiden, and her appearance on the battlefield is bound to cause great encouragement to the soldiers.
"Stupid girl, you can't harden your heart" Yufeng sighed, he knew Joan of Arc's personality at a glance and could basically judge her thoughts at a glance.
"Just take it as a celebration of your first battle, just this once" walked out of the position that had been released, and the wind said calmly.
"......" pursed her lips, Joan of Arc looked at Xiao You, who was gradually walking towards the fortress, and her heart was slightly complicated.
The rain of arrows fell from the sky, and it had already fallen to the ground before it touched the ghostly wind, and it was not long before it was close to the Sanlu Fortress, and it was hard to imagine that the stone fortress was completed in the near future.
The clothes that were different from the other soldiers, and the unnervous look of strolling through the rain of arrows, soon made the defending soldiers realize that the wind was special.
"Why did you follow......" The sound of footsteps behind him made the wind turn helplessly, the flag of France fluttered in the wind, and a figure behind him was rushing towards him.
"You can't go to war alone"
"You don't think they're a threat to me, do you?"
"At least keep me together," Joan of Arc said stubbornly, holding the flag in both hands.
“……”
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a loud bang in the sky, and a huge iron ball flew towards the two of them, and suddenly there was a burst of exclamation, and some soldiers couldn't bear to close their eyes.
"Well, remember not to leave my side"
It took half a bell before the soldier opened his eyes, and his colleagues beside him, as well as the places on the fortress, were all stunned in the same direction.
Floating slightly in mid-air, his left hand easily pinched the iron ball in the palm of his hand, even a regular knight would not want to attack hard, as if there was nothing.
"Hmm!" Nodding, Joan of Arc quickly followed Yufeng's side and walked towards the door of the fortress together.
For a fortress, the most difficult place to conquer is the gate, and France, which has no siege equipment, can only pile it with human lives.
"About one point of strength is enough."
In front of the fortress door of the heavy stone, Yufeng clenched his fists slightly, in fact, he didn't really want to make a move, just like people don't take a shot at weak creatures easily.
At the current level of Youfeng, the other party didn't provoke him, and he really didn't want to make a move.
A banging sound sounded, and the white fist touched the gate, paused for a moment, and the next moment the entire gate was blown out.
The gate of the Sanlu Fortress was directly damaged. (To be continued.) )
