Act 312 Unsolvable Misunderstanding and Siege
For a whole day, the small group of Northland legions outside the White Wolf Fort did not attack, but continued to improve the camp.
During this time, Sawyer sent a letter detailing the situation in the Blood Castle and requesting an interview with the commander of the Northland Legion, Count Weimar.
Because the troops of the Count of Weimar had not yet arrived, the other party only left the letter and did not take any further action.
In any case, the other side had no intention of attacking the city before the arrival of the army, and everything had to wait until the Count of Weimar arrived to make a judgment.
However, when the Count of Weimar arrived, the reply to Sawyer was simple and violentβa letter of arrows was shot straight in, telling Sawyer that the interview was scheduled for the fall of White Wolf Castle and that all his men had been tortured.
Then the Count of Weimar led his troops to completely surround the White Wolf Castle.
"Hell! Damn it! Damn it! β¦β¦β
Feeling unhappy, Sawa slashed at the fence with his sword, venting his anger in his heart.
Bai Gang glared at Sawyer dissatisfied: "If you are really angry, you can stab yourself with a sword to vent, but please don't damage the fruits of other people's labor!" β
That's right, the fence that Sawyer was chopping down was the result of a busy day in White Steel.
A section of the wall of the White Wolf Fort of about ten meters has only dug a foundation, and has not had time to bury a single brick and stone, and there is not even the simplest wooden fence, so it is exposed to the enemy.
After a day's hard work, relying on the humanoid bulldozer of the "Yuelong" individual armored cameo, this gap was transformed into a position to block the enemy.
The foundations were turned into a ditch, and the side of the castle was filled with dense stakes, and to the back was a low wall made of debris and earth and stones.
Compared to the stone walls on both sides, the defense of this line of defense can obviously only be regarded as better than nothing, but when the people of white steel are integrated into the defense line, everything is different.
Relying on the powerful load-bearing ability of the "Yuelong" individual armor, coupled with the excellent ability of the "Python", every combatant in the white steel team is now equivalent to a machine gun crew!
With a width of more than ten meters and a blockade of more than 20 machine guns, if you don't use your brains, this place will become a burial ground!
The Count of Weimar watched as his soldiers were making final preparations for the siege, and all of them had irrepressible expressions of excitement on their faces.
A shabby little castle, and a section of the city wall that had not been built at all, there was only a low wall and a ditch that had taken a day to pile up!
The dense spikes are indeed troublesome, but they are not a problem at all for their experienced warriors, and they are not even afraid of real siege battles.
Those who were chosen to be the first wave of charges were smiling, and those who weren't chosen were depressed.
Now than before, with the isolation of the fortress of the Blood Fortress and the pressure of the army of the undead, the war between the human countries has almost come to a standstill, and there is no difference between the friction of petty fights and the slapsticks of children.
The fiercest battle of these people is to exterminate the bandits, and they can't get much merit at all, and it is naturally delusional to want to quickly rise to the top without merit.
And now, there are people who have an abnormal head and want to fight the idea of the Blood Fortress, and after failing, they still hide in such a dilapidated castle!
What's even better is that except for Dilitan and Sawyer, who still have some combat power, the rest are simply a rabble!
As the heroic deeds of the expedition became widely known, the personal characteristics of these warriors also became widely known, and the most deeply rooted impression of Bai Gang and the Chinese people he represented was that they did not understand magic and fighting spirit, and fought with sharp alchemy weapons!
Although the power of these alchemical weapons is blown into the sky in the story, the Anglians, who have never seen guns and bombs, will always speculate from the perspective of their own life experience, and finally come to a consensus on the so-called alchemical weapons - they are just powerful crossbows with self-winding ability!
According to this line of thinking, the Count of Weimar prepared a large number of heavy shields for the siege troops, trying to rely on the protection of these shields to block the alchemical weapons from China.
With the exception of large weapons such as bed crossbows, ballistas, and trebuchets for the city's defenses, the Northland Legion did not believe that any armed crossbow could threaten the heavy shields.
With these shields, everyone thinks they've won the game!
The Count of Weimar looked at the position of the sun, and it was almost time to attack, and it would not be a good thing for them to drag the battle into darkness if it dragged on any longer.
The Count of Weimar asked the adjutant beside him, "Haven't the people of the five major families come yet?" β
The adjutant shook his head: "No, I didn't see their people. β
"Really...... Forget it, don't wait for them! β
The Count of Weimar's face was not very good-looking, and he complained in his heart about the five major families, these guys usually eat ugly and procrastinate. I didn't expect it to be the same this time, and I didn't look at the opponent's situation, is it really good that the enemy who is so weak that he can be crushed at will still drag it out like this!?
I've obviously tried my best to delay time for them, but now it's not there yet, so I can't blame myself for not helping.
I hope that those guys won't shamelessly post it when they share the credit in the future, if that's the case, it's really hard to explain it to the people who are involved in the battle now.
Alas...... Forget it, don't think about it so much, take down these traitors first!
However, it's really interesting to talk about the alchemy item they took out earlier that can play the animation side, and although they wouldn't be stupid enough to believe the evidence they forged, it's still good to use such a good thing as a loot collection.
"Legion Commander! Everyone is ready! β
The Count of Weimar nodded, drew his sword, and swung it towards the gap in the walls of the White Wolf Castle: "Attack!" β
Amid earth-shattering cheers, the army set off.
At the foreground were several wooden carts made of thick planks with a layer of sacks of earth and stone, enough to withstand the ballistas!
According to the intelligence, there are no magicians in the White Wolf Castle at all, and Bai Gang is barely one, and he is still a half-hanger, and there are no heavy weapons on the city walls. In this case, this level of protection is sufficient.
The wooden cart was followed closely by hundreds of heavy infantry in heavy armor and armed with huge shields. Further back, there was a group of light infantry in light armor, each carrying a bundle of firewood on their backs, apparently used to fill the trenches.
The siege team slowly advanced unhurriedly, and soon approached a distance of four hundred meters.
