Chapter 125: Establishing a Village

Although the armor on the bodies of many White Harbor soldiers was very thick, they could not withstand such a violent stab.

The severe pain and indescribable discomfort made them feel helpless, and often the pain came from one place to the next.

In the end, in a daze, the defenders harvested and took away the head.

There was also a guy in the defenders who was short and had a piece of cloth in front of him, which brought his short stature to the extreme.

He used a large spoon to pick out the crotch of the enemy who came up.

It's also shameless to specialize in the next three lanes.

The soldiers of White Harbor had never fought such a humiliating battle.

When a new round of fire oil was accurately poured into the crowd of siege teams at the gate of Mucheng, the battle that lasted for an hour came to an end for the time being.

The enemy sounded the horn of retreat.

It seems that the first round of tentative attacks is coming to an end.

"They're back!" someone shouted.

There was a burst of hearty laughter from the walls.

Harry Kane saw the scene outside the city, the enemy was coming in like a tidal wave, and now the tide was receding like a tidal wave.

He watched as the militiamen on the city walls began to poke their heads out and curse outside the walls.

He was furious and rebuked, "Damn it! Don't poke your head out, lower your head, bury your head behind the battlement!"

A few nearby militiamen turned their heads hesitantly, shouldn't they celebrate the victory?

Harry Kane continued to roar, "Get down! The enemy's arrow rain is coming, how many heads do you have?"

Whoosh –

The sound of breaking the sky pierced the night sky again, because it was a cover for retreat, the enemy's archers did not use the bow and arrow to ignite the fire, and the arrows used the cover of the night, and the arrows were like hidden weapons of stealth, shooting at the head of the city one by one.

Puff –

Pound pound pound –

Some of the overjoyed militiamen soon realized that something was wrong, and several heads poking out of the wall battlements were shot through the heads by a dense number of arrows.

One moment, they were laughing and celebrating, and the next moment scarlet oozed from the curvature of the corners of their mouths.

"Get down! Get down!"

"Crossbowmen, shoot their team of archers!"

When the enemy's archers covered the evacuation of the infantry to safety, the battle officially ended.

The veterans gave the recruits a practical lesson in defending the city with their scars, and the militia used their courage and stupidity to prove that war is always more terrible than imagined.

On the battlefield, the reason why it is a battlefield is that if you are not careful, you will lose your life.

When the laughter and celebrations died down, there was silence on the wall.

Everyone began to consciously accept the bandaging and silently prepared for the next round of defense.

......

Lynn rode to the gates of White Harbor, and his cavalry regiment had already finished lining up and was waiting quietly.

After the arriving infantry and archers were also in the queue, Lynn's legions were all assembled.

White Harbor is one of the five largest cities in Westeros and the largest in the North, with extremely strong greystone walls.

The walls were guarded by ballistas, fire-breathing crossbows, and crossbowmen.

As a port city, this city is a real city, not an ordinary castle.

The city is divided into an inner and outer harbor, separated by a breakwater.

The outer harbor was choked by a gray-green boulder rising fifty feet from the sea, blocking the passage in and out of the outer harbor.

The inner harbor was the heart of the city, supported on one side by the ramparts and on the other by the wolf's den, and the breakwater was topped by a stone wall thirty feet high and nearly a mile long, with towers every 100 meters.

The inner harbor alone can accommodate more than twenty warships.

The outer harbor is even larger.

Access to the harbor is controlled by seal gates.

The open harbor is like a giant sitting on the ground, with open arms.

When it is closed, it is like a giant holding the prosperous and brilliant pearl of the inner harbor.

As the largest settlement north of Tsukuzawa, the population of the castle is said to be as high as nearly 100,000.

Every time war comes, the inhabitants of the suburbs flock to the giant city, which makes the city even more crowded.

"What did the Bolton family bring? With such a strong city, can an army of 10,000 or 20,000 skinners really take it?"

Lynn looked at the towering buildings on a hill within the city walls and expressed doubt.

With such a thick city wall, it may be difficult for a catapult to carve a few marks on it.

And the bigger the city, the more free knights and mercenary knights in the city, Lynn felt that the garrison of White Harbor City was three or four thousand (not including the navy), but the strength that could be mobilized in a critical moment was probably an even more terrifying number.

Duncan didn't seem to hear Lynn's question, and he exclaimed with longing in his eyes, "This is a castle worthy of an adult." ”

Lynn rolled her eyes.

Looking at the arrow towers on the city wall, he shook his head and said lightly: "Only after seeing with my own eyes how strong this city is, I feel that such a city can only be besieged, not stormed." ”

Duncan said, "As long as the Lords bring in the trebuchets, no even a strong city can withstand a few days of onslaught." ”

Lynn agrees with this, and if it is his own army, of course, there is no problem.

But how many trebuchets can be prepared for the south of the Horror Fortress?

The skinners dared to lead the army south, and they must have something to rely on.

Lynn didn't stay long outside the West City Gate, waiting for the promised dozens of wagons to be delivered from White Harbor.

The army retreated to a slope outside the western city and began to set up camp.

The skinning sentinels were already far away from Lynn's army, and had secretly scouted a few times.

Lynn has no interest in letting her army be treated as a fool by other sentinels.

It was necessary to set up camp, and when the army of the skinners began to attack the city, he was ready to pull the army to the north gate.

The battle of the 10,000-strong army has never been so simple.

It's not a group fight, pulling over and stupidly attacking other people's camps, it's just that no number of troops are enough to fill it.

Large barracks were generally built in sparse woods, with shrubs dragging the cavalry, and some ravines were dug at random to mix horses, and the cavalry was basically abandoned.

If you think it's okay to charge the camp with more infantry, then I'm sorry.

A complete army, every time you set up camp, you will arrange a horse rejection and ground spur traps, and if you want to rush the camp, it depends on how much you are willing to pay.

The Bolton family is one of the oldest families in the North, and his Skinned Heavy Cavalry is unique in the North.

Lynn judged that if the two sides fought, the other side would be more willing to have a battle in the wilderness.

That's what Luce Bolton thought, and the horse sent the news of Lynn's army outside White Harbor to the Skinners' camp.

Luce Burton's face flashed with surprise and suspicion.

Lynn's army crossed the Bay of Carlin, and their numbers skyrocketed much more than they had during their time in Twin Cities.

The Earl of Bolton initially suspected that this was a bluff, but after the information reported by the scouts confirmed the accuracy of the matter, he fell into a deep thought.

He wasn't thinking about where Lynn's army came from, he was thinking about how to win the battle.
