Fei De stood on the city wall, and the three mercenary group leaders and other captains around him were staring at the gate of the sub-city south of Doret City!

And Fei De turned to look beyond the city walls, the siege towers and mobile arrow towers had bypassed the pit that had been set up, and detoured to the southeast direction, and were approaching the side of the city wall.

All the crossbowmen standing in front of the walls were already attacking those who approached the walls, and the defensive trebuchets in the sub-city were also waving their "arms" and throwing boulder cannonballs outside the city. This time, however, the siege force of the East Oguna Empire was much stronger than the one in the morning, most of the infantry advanced faster, and the opposing ranged troops also launched a dense attack, so that many of the crossbowmen who were standing behind the battlements could not show their heads.

Although there was the cover of battlements and arrow towers, the enemy had more points of attack, more concentrated targets, and the numerical superiority was gradually revealed. The invading forces of the East Oguna Empire began to circle around the two sides of the city of Doret, and many hoplites had already picked up long ladders and pressed towards the western wall, which had no sub-city and was relatively weakly defended. The mercenary groups that were supposed to burn the camp had already been slaughtered, and some of the remaining mercenaries had already fled to the north, hiding far away. The general in charge of guarding the western wall also ordered to throw a source of fire at the mercenary camp, hoping to burn the flammable camp tents and affect the siege troops.

But at this time, all the defenders of the southern sub-city were attracted by the already sealed gate, and their ears were attracted by the violent crashing sound.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The leader of the superior mercenary group stood there looking at the city gate, laughing incessantly, laughing that the enemies did not know that the city gate had already been sealed, and even the most powerful battering ram could not break through. But the next second the image that appeared made the face of the dwarf regiment commander turn green - the gate that should have been sealed with a boulder was actually breached, and a large number of hoplites of the invading army swarmed in, and immediately poured into the city of the southern sub-city!

The reserve troops, who had been standing under the walls and inside the city, immediately rushed over when they realized that the enemy had attacked the sub-city, trying to fend off the men who had broken through the city gates. And the crossbowmen of the walls also turned their heads and shot at the enemies under their feet.

No one expected that the sealed gate would be breached, and there were no defenders in that place at all, so the enemy hoplites could rush in at once. Only Feder realized that the reason why the city gate that should have been sealed and killed was easily breached was most likely a good thing done by Derek, a traitor. But even now that the entire Vice-City siege of Theoguna Empire is aware of this fact, there is no way to stop the enemies who are pouring into the Vice-City like a tide.

Fidel looked at the trebuchets that were throwing stones outward, and if there was no stronger army to drive the enemies out of the walls and retake the gates, the defensive trebuchets would be paralyzed in a very short time, and would not be able to stop the advance of the siege towers. This will also make the southern sub-city wall completely lost, and the southern sub-city can only be abandoned at that time.

He immediately ordered his men to be on the lookout for enemies who might charge from under the walls, and told the crossbowmen not to stop firing and try to knock down the enemy's targets capable of long-range attacks first. However, realizing that the vice city might be lost, Fed informed the Marcus brothers and Patrick of the order to retreat to the city at any time, and asked them to command the rest of the men to keep an eye on the walls in the direction of the city.

Since there is a junction of the walls of the main city of Doret City, the southern sub-city, and the eastern sub-city, this connection is next to the area where the Fed and the other three mercenary groups are stationed, so if you do not transfer from the gate between the two cities, you can only move from the junction of the eastern and western walls of the southern sub-city. Feder had noticed that there were quite a few elite crossbowmen and halberders guarding the line, and they were all keeping an eye on the invading army that broke through.

Fei De slowly walked towards the hundred or so guards, where a captain with a sword at his waist and a heavy crossbow in his hand was directing his men to keep on guard. He saw that Feder was walking towards him, and he immediately shouted to Fed, "Lord Fed, is there something wrong?"

Fei De planned to test it first to see if the other party would let the subordinates of the southern deputy city retreat to the city at an emergency moment: "Captain, if those enemies rush to the city wall, does the chief of the general staff have any corresponding countermeasures?"

The captain looked at what the other man had said, he put the crossbow machine on the ground, and then crossed his hands on his chest, "Of course Master Stanley has the corresponding order, but no" Before he could finish his sentence, a crossbow arrow came from a distance, and shot directly at his head, shooting blood and brains out, splashing it on the face of a soldier next to him, causing the soldier to scream.

Fidel immediately turned around, not expecting the moving arrow towers to advance so fast that they were already able to shoot into their area. Fei De immediately picked up his two-handed sword and held it in front of his chest to prevent a crossbow arrow from coming at him. The more than 100 soldiers guarding the connection were taken aback, and when they saw that their commander was dead, they immediately picked up their crossbows and fired back.

By this time, the walls were in disarray, and the crossbowmen who had been in order did not know whether to deal with the enemy who might rush up the walls or the walls that were still approaching outside the city. The crossbowmen in the tall arrow towers also deserted, and they fled from the isolated arrow towers to get closer to the northern wall.

Seeing that many of the soldiers defending the city had left their posts and retreated to the junction of the city gate to the north, Fei De also saw that in the camp of the headquarters under the city wall to the north, some generals had come out of there and took the lead in withdrawing to the city. From a great distance, Fidel vaguely saw Stanley, the chief of the General Staff, and Ludwig leaving the headquarters together.

"Captain Fidel, those regular troops are about to be unstoppable, what are we going to do?!" Captain Franklin pointed to the enemy who had poured in from the city gate, which had been invaded by the invading forces of the East Oguna Empire, and had erected an iron shield wall within a certain area, so that the terrain that was not conducive to defense had the conditions to continue to advance. Moreover, as more and more regular troops of the Western Oguna Empire escaped from the city walls and arrow towers, the southern sub-city also lost the ability to resist the siege forces outside the city in a very short time.

"Field, let's retreat too, and retreat to the walls of our own city," Squadron Leader Marcus pulled out his war hammer as he looked at the siege towers that were about to touch the walls, "Otherwise, with our strength, we will definitely not be able to stop the hoplites who are attacking the city!"

Seeing that the southern sub-city was about to be lost, and the enemy's lethal siege weapons were about to touch the city walls, Fidel realized that the "devastating blow" that Stanley and Ludwig had sworn just now had not appeared. Instead, the enemy broke through the city gates, entered the sub-city, and engaged the defenders, and fell into a tunnel battle.

Fei De only thought for a few seconds, and immediately asked the three mercenary group leaders to gather their men and withdraw to the north. He also had his subordinates gathered together and prepared to transfer. Fed ran to the side of the hundred or so guards and shouted, "Now we must retreat to the city, please give way to the city!"

The soldiers glanced at Fidel, but no one dared to stand up and discuss the decision with the other party, and no one gave in, all of them stood there with their crossbows in their hands and fired back.

At this time, Lord Möngke also arrived, and behind him there were many of his subordinates who were preparing to evacuate. He walked directly to the side of a soldier, picked up his sword and slashed the opponent's crossbow machine, "Listen to me! Get out of the way immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!" All the guards were stunned, and they stood aside one after another, lowering their weapons.

At this moment, several more arrows flew from a distance, and they were about to hit Möngke, but Fidel immediately pulled the opponent down, raised his arm, and blocked the precise arrows with a "black flash".

"I owe you another life!" said Möngke as he pulled him up.

"No, these soldiers who were able to evacuate from here owe you their lives, including me. ”
