Chapter 13: The Assault and Defense of Harrenhal III
Seeing that the enemy generals were also rushing towards him, Ma Shen couldn't help grinning, he really couldn't wait to come and die, if you have the strength of the magic mountain, you may be able to make a few moves with me, but if not, you can wash and sleep, there are not many human beings who can fight with themselves in this world.
Bang, Ma Shen casually slashed the soldier blocking the road in front of him to the ground, and the two finally came into contact.
"Ahh
Yo, the strength is not bad, Ma Shen quickly raised his sword to block Rorent's long sword, but it was only good, there was still a little gap compared to the magic mountain, Ma Shen's eyes flashed coldly, after blocking the long sword, his footsteps moved to the right, the sword mouth was slightly oblique, and he quickly hit back at Rorent, this sword was fast and ruthless.
"Bell!" Rorent, who had been trained as a regular knight, reacted very quickly, and swung his sword with a roar to block the sword, but then Lorent found that he had not completely blocked the sword, and with a piercing sound of metal rubbing, Ma Shen's slightly oblique sword edge scraped the sword and quickly approached his body.
In the face of this, Lorient reluctantly took a step back, intending to leave the distance and fight again, but Ma Shen did not give him this opportunity, and one blow after another, Lorient fell into a disadvantage all of a sudden.
Ma Shen's sword speed is very fast, every time Luo Rent wants to raise his sword to fight back, Ma Shen can quickly attack, causing Luo Shen's arm to be pressed back before it is fully extended, the strength advantage plus the gap in swordsmanship, after a few swords, Luo Rent's hand began to tremble, and Ma Shen's advantage is getting bigger and bigger.
Soldier to soldier, king to king, my subordinates can't beat your subordinates, but it's no problem for me to beat you, Ma Shen seized the opportunity, twisted the sword in his hand hard, and Lorent's hand, which had already been barely supported, was forced to let go, and the sword immediately didn't know where it flew, and at the same time, Lorent also took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Die!" Ma Shen was about to take advantage of the victory, when a meaty Lannister soldier stabbed the guard in the abdomen and discovered the situation, raising his sword and shouting in front of Ma Shen.
"Look for death!" Ma Shen's eyes widened, and the two swords slashed the Lannister soldier who had already killed three guards to the ground.
But at this moment, several nearby Lannister soldiers also saw their own jazz fall to the ground, and forced the guards to come to support.
Unfortunately, they didn't have much time for Rorent, and Ma Shen quickly killed the Lannister soldiers who stood in the middle of him, and quickly came to Lorient, and at this time Lorent had just picked up a long sword from a corpse on the ground.
The wolf slayer, as expected, lived up to his name, and Lorent laughed miserably, and instead of running away, he continued to shout and attack the horse, the sense of honor in his heart and the education he received since childhood did not allow him to escape.
"Dying throes. Ma Shen slammed the sword in Lorent's hand away again, this time Ma Shen didn't give him a chance, his body turned, and his elbow joint smashed into the back of Lorent's head, and the heavy blow to the back of the head made Rorent's eyes roll and the whole person lay on the ground.
Having finally had a good captive of his own, Ma Shen glanced at Lorent, who was lying on the ground, and did not stop, and continued to lead the guards to attack the remnants of the Lannisters on the city wall, causing serious damage to those Lannisters on the city wall who had thought that victory was not far away.
One by one died under Ma Shen's sword, no one could block Ma Shen's attack, the solid armor in his hands was like paper, maybe if it was fenced, maybe Ma Shen was not an opponent, but now, they were all scum in Ma Shen's eyes.
Even the soldiers who were about to climb the city wall saw Ma Shen, who was about to kill in front of him, and involuntarily ran to the bottom.
The enemy's momentum had been lost, and the place was defended, and Ma Shen led people to force the last Lannister soldier of this piece of the wall off the wall, and the remaining guards behind him came up to take Ma Shen's place.
Now is not the time to relax, there are still a large number of siege soldiers under the city who want to rush up the city wall, and several crash cars also take advantage of the fact that the guards have no time to take care of them, and under the cover of the siege soldiers to the city gate, they began to crash down, but they are all in vain, and the thick gate has long been blocked by mud and sand.
On their heads, a large group of young men were desperately throwing stones and corpses under the city under the stimulation of rumors in the city.
These young men played a huge role in the defense of the city, making up for the lack of soldiers, they would be attacked by elite longbowmen at the beginning or thrown stones by the weapons thrown by the siege soldiers on the ladder, but under the appearance of some veterans, these young men were much more cunning, when throwing stones, slightly exposed their bodies, and focused on smashing around the siege ladder.
If a Lannister soldier rushes up, the soldiers who have been waiting for a long time next to the young man will rush up with spears, stabbing the siege soldiers who have managed to climb the city wall into hedgehogs, and occasionally some soldiers who are not afraid of death will rush up to fight off the defenders and try to stabilize their positions, but they will also be quickly driven down by Ma Shen and his people.
So the two sides were in a stalemate, the defenders suffered heavy casualties, the Lannister soldiers suffered even greater casualties, and the high morale also fell under the long stalemate, and many soldiers began to be lazy and grinding, and before they could climb a few steps up the ladder, they pretended to be hit and jumped down.
This made the optimistic Duke Tywin in the distance look ugly, in addition to the 1,000 soldiers who had just begun to attack the city, he sent an additional 500 reserves to go up, but the seemingly crumbling city wall could not be attacked.
"Blow the trumpet, and retreat for the time being. Tywin instructed the herald with a stiff face, hoping to hear good news from the other two for now.
Even if he is very unwilling, Tywin is not someone who can't afford to let go, otherwise he won't revive the declining Lannister family.
At this time, there is no point in continuing to attack, the wolf slayer is defending the city, and he can't attack it at once, so he can only think of other ways, and it is not worth it at all for the sake of this Harrenhal Warrior who has suffered countless casualties in the West.
"Whew... Under the command of Duke Tywin, a loud horn sounded, overshadowing the screams on the battlefield, and the siege soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner with relief after hearing the horn, but the soldiers who had climbed to the city wall were not so lucky, and there was nowhere to run, except for a small number of people who escaped along the siege ladder, the rest of the people died and surrendered.
Soon, there was not a single Lannister soldier on the wall, except for the captives who fell to their knees.
"We won!!"
"We won!!"
"The Lannisters have been repelled by us!!"
The soldiers defending the city and the young men all roared.
