The sun had risen, the fog had not yet dissipated, and the Lannister army, which had been silent for a night, was dispatched.

With a loud and energetic trumpet, the army of the Lannister camp was divided into three parts, one of which pressed directly towards the main entrance of Harrenhal, and the other two were about to go around to the two side gates of Harrenhal.

The cold wind of the early morning blew on the walls of Harrenhal, and Ma Shen watched the movement of the Lannister army in black iron armor, followed by some brave men who were also wearing armor.

These men were the mercenaries that Jeffs had hired with a verbal check last night, as well as some wandering knights, and Ma Shen intended to use them as firefighters, where to go there in case of emergency.

In addition, Jeffs also recruited some veterans who had participated in the war of the usurpers, and Ma Shen placed these experienced veterans in mid-level positions, hoping to use their experience to save the lives of a few more recruits.

As for the armor he wore, it was borrowed from several blacksmith shops in Harrenhal, not for free, and he had to give it to the blacksmith shop owner when the war ended, of course, this is also a saying, the armor will definitely not be intact during the battle, so for those blacksmith shop owners who voluntarily "lend" it to Ma Shen, Ma Shen decided to give them some other compensation later.

But not everyone will cooperate with Ma Shen's expropriation, there is a strong blacksmith shop owner who tried to use a hammer to make Ma Shen's head bloom, of course, the result is very clear, Ma Shen was killed cleanly, and all the family property was confiscated.

At this moment, Ma Shen has put down all the sympathy in his heart, because at this time, soft-heartedness is disrespectful to himself and the lives of his subordinates.

"One is the main attack, the other two are feints, and as the war progresses, the feints can become the main attack, and the main attack can be turned into a feint. Ma Shen looked at the movement of the Lannister army with a cold face, and immediately guessed what their idea was, "Do you want to take advantage of the strong forces and attack in three directions together?" ”

"Jeffs, Loger, take 200 soldiers and 400 young men to the other two side gates, and send liaison officers to inform me of anything. ”

"Sir, do you only have enough of these people here?" Jeffs looked worriedly at the Lannister's army divided into three parts, according to the calculation of the soldiers who left, the main gate should be the main place for the Lannisters to attack, but except for those young men who assisted in defending the city, if he and the scar man each took away 200 soldiers, there would be less than 300 soldiers left here, and the pressure was very high.

Regarding Jeffs's concern, Ma Shen emphasized again: "This is an order, hurry up, slow down the Lannister's army will come in directly through the side door." ”

"Yes, sir" Jeffs and Scar Man glanced at each other, and could only take orders.

After Jeffs and Scar Man left, Ma Shen took a deep breath and roared, "All ready!"

After a night's rest, the Lannister infantry with a hundred times more spirit strode with unstoppable momentum, like a red tide swept over the ground, through the efforts of the craftsmen of the army for a night, this time the army was not as there were only a few patchwork siege ladders as yesterday, and from the city wall you could find a large number of siege ladders in the Lannister army formation, and occasionally one or two crash cars dedicated to attacking the city gates.

"There were a lot of people in one night. Staying in front of the phalanx with a group of knightly vassals, Duke Tywin looked up at the situation on the city wall and sneered, "I'm afraid that the wolf slayer forced a lot of civilians to go up the wall." ”

What is the combat effectiveness of the civilians, as soon as they rush, Duke Tywin turned to Knight Rowant and ordered: "Knight Laurent, the time has come for you to redeem your honor, immediately bring 1,000 soldiers to attack the city wall." ”

"Yes, sir, I will not let you down. Lorent gave a knightly salute and turned away without hesitation, this is the only chance to redeem his honor, no matter what wildfire or black fire, I must take Harrenhal, Lorente meditated in his heart, clenched his fists tightly.

Looking at the back of Knight Lorent's rapid departure, Tywin smiled and turned to Count Craich and ordered: "Count Craigher, the hundreds of longbowmen under your command are very famous in the West, and I will ask you to command the longbowmen to cover the infantry attack later." "The walls are too tall for the arrows fired by ordinary archers to pose no threat to the guards on the walls, and the arrows fired by the well-trained longbowmen of the Earl of Craich may be of some use.

"No problem, Lord Tywin," Earl Craech readily agreed, and immediately went to organize the hundreds of longbowmen he had brought with him.

Looking up at the crowded city walls again, Duke Tywin whispered to himself in disdain, "After being dragged by that wolf slayer for a day, it's time to put an end to this farce." ”

Walking quickly to the soldiers, the young knight of Lorent couldn't wait to do the pre-battle mobilization: "We are warriors from the West, we wear strong armor, we hold sharp swords, we are brave and fearless, we are well-trained, but now we are blocked by a group of lowly drunkard gamblers, let us pick up the long sword in our hands and take this Harrenhal!"

"Hah!!" the Lannister soldier waved his weapon excitedly.

"Let them see that even the tall walls can't stop the valiant and warlike warriors of the West. Knight Laurent walked back and forth in front of the soldiers, trying to make his voice heard by all the soldiers.

"Ha !!"

"Let them know how good we are!!Soldiers, rush!!" Lorente roared, swung his sword forward, and as he had done yesterday, he took the lead with a shield in his left hand.

"Charge!" The brave general can always drive the emotions of the soldiers, and at this time the soldiers have forgotten about Rorent's defeat yesterday, and all of them fanatically follow Rorent's charge behind him.

"Longbowmen shoot 3 rounds, cover the infantry attack!" At the same time, seeing the infantry charge, Count Cracher also roared, and a row of longbowmen behind him stepped forward a few steps neatly, quickly took out an arrow from the arrow holster behind his back, leaned back slightly, and forcefully pulled the longbow in his hand.

"Release!!" Count Krech ordered, and the longbowman's fingers loosened at the same time, and a dense rain of arrows flew rapidly towards the city walls.

When this row of longbowmen fired the arrows in their hands, the other row of longbowmen stepped forward and pulled their longbows in tacit agreement, maintaining an uninterrupted rain of arrows.

Longbowmen are a class as precious as cavalry, and they need to be selected for soldiers with strong arms, good eyesight, and talent for archery, and then after a lot of time of training, they can be trained, so these longbowmen have always been the heart and soul of the Earl of Krech.

"Boom" Ma Shen's head shrank and dodged a flying arrow.

"TM's, shoot so high. Ma Shen scolded angrily, "Archers, don't shoot those infantry, aim at the enemy's longbowmen's positions and shoot back!" "There are also archers on his side, although they are all scavenging arrows from blacksmiths and houses.

Hearing Ma Shen's order, the improvised team of 30 archers gritted their teeth, drew their bows and arrows, and launched a counterattack.

"Xiu Xiu Xiu" The archers on both sides come and go, the arrows are constantly flying in the air, but they look lively, but in fact they do not hurt a few people, the Lannister army longbowmen are well-trained, but the kinetic energy of the arrows on the city wall is also consumed a lot, Ma Shen's side has a geographical advantage, and the shortcomings are also obvious, the weapons are poor, the soldiers lack training, in short, they can't shoot a few people.

Ma Shen also knew their situation, and did not want them to achieve much success, and after giving the order, his attention was always focused on the infantry besieging the city, which were the decisive factor in the battle.

Siege ladder, crash, Ma Shen silently counted in his heart, he didn't expect that the Lannister family's military craftsmen would build so many siege equipment in one night, fortunately, maybe because of the lack of time, Ma Shen was a little glad that he didn't see the kind of siege tower that could be erected on the city wall and let his soldiers go directly to the city wall.
