Rogge frowned: "It is inevitable to divide the troops, but not too much, and quickly, the fleet of the Dark Order will arrive soon, and there will be no time to send troops if you hesitate." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info In this case, I'll take the Templars of Light to deal with it. ”

Kai did not hesitate to reject Rogge's proposal: "The Bright Templar Warriors are the last trump card to guard Chanda, and if you use it now, Chanda will not be spared." ”

Rogge's sweat came down, and he looked outside the city, the You River was still flowing calmly, but he didn't know when, a continuous black sail would emerge from the mouth of the river downstream.

"I'll go. A voice rang out.

Kai jerked his head back, a flash of surprise on his face, "Roar?"

It was the roar that he was putting on the armor with the help of Xie Rena, and said as he put it on: "I heard you two good friends talk about it for a long time over there, I probably know the situation, do you two think there is a better candidate besides me?"

Kai looked at Rogge and nodded firmly.

Roaring and jumping up: "You can't speak too straight, be careful that I yell at you!"

But as she spoke, Roar fell silent again, allowing Serena to check her armor one last time.

"When you go out, be careful. Kai wanted to speak and stopped, and finally only held back this sentence, "The manpower is limited, you can take away, only two thousand free knights, they have little role in defending the city, and it is the most suitable for you to fight in the jungle." ”

Rogge followed: "As soon as the fleet of the Dark Order arrives, the team that goes out to intercept the Nords will not be able to return to the city, and must act independently outside, you must be on your own and wait for the opportunity." Old G and the guy named Reddils are out there, and if you can't hold on, you can go find them. ”

Roar showed an embarrassed look on his face again: "Can't you say something nice, as if I just went out to die or look for abuse, I'm also the best warrior in Kugit, right?"

Kai nodded: "Okay, the last word...... Go all the way!"

Roar: "...... Xie Rena, I'm not going, help me take off my armor!"

Serena: "Ahh......h

Roar: "......"

Rog suddenly walked up and gave Roar a tight hug, then whispered something in Roar's ear.

Roaring for a moment, a knowing smile appeared on his face, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll do it." ”

After a pause, he said, "If I don't come back...... Tell Mama Cha, let him stop waiting for me, find a good family...... Aha, just kidding, hehe......"

Rogge shuddered and took a step back. Roaring turned around and stepped onto his warhorse, carefully examined the riding bow, scimitar and six-pot cone-headed arrows on the side of the saddle, and finally raised his arms and shouted: "Knights of the Free Knights, follow me out of the city, and we will defend Chanda!"

In a sudden harmony, the two thousand freelancers rushed out of the gate of Chanda like a silver glittering mercury, and stabbed straight to the south.

At the same time, the crossbowman standing at the head of the city of Chanda saw the bent downstream estuary of the You River in the distance, and a black sail poked out from the shade of the green trees.

At H+4 on Day D, at 12 noon on June 6, 1260 Calradia calendar, the second battle of Chanda, which will go down in history, officially kicked off with the terrible warning of a crossbowman. Chanda is located in the middle of the You River Basin, backed by the Tyre Heights, surrounded by water on three sides in the north and southwest, the You River makes a bend here, bypasses the city wall of Chanda, and goes north into the sea.

Between the water of the You River and the city wall of Chanda, there is a river beach of nearly 800 meters, which is as flat as a stone, and the river channel of several miles is very restrained to maintain this safe distance from Chanda, and every July and August, when the upstream rainstorm and the water of the You River swells, it will overflow these river beaches and rush downstream against the wall of Chanda.

Chanda has been a battleground for Calradia's soldiers since ancient times!

On the one hand, this perennial river beach washed by the water of the You River, strong and open, is the best battlefield, all the great battles that have occurred in Calradia, and finally converge under the city of Chanda, without him, because Chanda can easily hold the You River, and the You River is a waterway that transports supplies from the sea into the interior, and all the great battles related to Chanda will eventually return to this river beach, which is the beginning and end of all wars.

On the other hand, because the You River has abundant water and many farmlands along the river, especially in the vicinity of Chanda, it is the most dense, and controlling Chanda is equivalent to controlling a solid supply point built on the You River.

So, after thirty years of silence, Chanda was once again thrown to the cusp of war.

The first to board Chanda, the vanguard fleet of the Dark Order fired hundreds of bed crossbow arrows, across the river beach of nearly eight hundred meters in the middle, the bed crossbow arrows dragged a sharp sound of breaking the air, like rolling thunder, first hit the reinforced and reinforced city wall of Chanda City, most of them flew out, but there were still more than a dozen firmly inserted on the wall of Chanda, making a thunderclap-like impact.

Although he had been mentally prepared, he still set off a burst of exclamations in Chanda City.

At this moment, in Chanda City, the highest military commander is Kai, and he, together with Willy and Mama Cha left by Lao G, led the two thousand people who were taken away by the roar, and there were still four thousand Free Knights left, Xie Rena, Kradus and Dronton, as the three small powerhouses of the well-known Chanda Arena in Calradia, led after the Battle of Paravin two years ago and the subsequent Chanda rebellion, there were still 6,000 heroic fighters left, and the dryer was running around, controlling the 2,000 garrisons that were originally subordinate to the Chanda city defense system, and as for Duma and Peter, who had just returned from outside the city, they temporarily became the commanders of the Chanda militia.

From this point of view, there are currently more than 17,000 people in the defense force in Chanda City, which of course does not count the 1,000 Bright Templar Warrior Regiment under Rogge as the trump card of life, but compared to the more than 30,000 Dark Legions that came with a large number of light siege weapons outside the city to urge the fleet outside the city, they are still relatively weak, at least, there is no way to divide troops to assist the new Chanda who is overwhelmed by heavy troops.

The dark fleet on the You River organized a salvo of three bed crossbow arrows, and the arm-thick bed crossbow arrows hit the brand-new city wall of Chanda in waves, and soon, small cracks appeared in the bricks outside the city wall. After three waves of salvos, the leading dark fleet has circled from the river north of Chanda to the west of Chanda, and when the ships go around the southern section of the river, Chanda will be completely exposed to the coverage of the fleet's firepower, and the Dark Order does not even need to send troops, just use siege weapons to demolish the walls of Chanda.

The first battleship finally sailed into the mouth of the You River south of Chanda, but as soon as it sailed in, the bow of the ship had just been leveled, and the slender side flanks of the ship were taken care of by the two light trebuchets placed at the head of Chanda, and by virtue of the height of the city wall, the two trebuchets steadily brought the battleship into the range of the strike.

Two stone bullets, one landed on the flat river beach, smashing a piece of gravel, and the other went over the bow of the ship and made a splash on the side of the battleship.

Because Chanda's catapult had not been used before, the battleship was reckless to come into range, and the two stone projectiles reminded it, and when it rowed again and was about to leave this dangerous range, a second round of stone projectiles was fired.

After the previous calibration, the stone projectile finally reaped the results, one stone projectile pierced the black sail of the battleship, pierced one of the ship's masts, and the mast fell at the same time, causing a large confusion on the deck, but the confusion had just begun to turn into a wail, and the second stone projectile accurately pierced the waterline on the side of the battleship. The battleship reluctantly shook off a few meters away, then slowly sank, and the last half ran aground in the river, unexpectedly becoming a roadblock.

The southern section of the river in Chanda has been temporarily blocked!

But this is only a small episode, even if no warships enter the southern section of the river, but the northern and western sections of the river have been moored dozens of warships, each battleship is placed on two ballistas, after mooring, hundreds of ballistas at the same time poured fire on the strong city wall of Chanda, for a time the gray bricks were splashed, and that long section of the city wall was full of long crossbow arrows like a forest.

Under the cover of ballista fire, the dozens of battleships lowered their gangplanks, and the black-pressed soldiers of the Dark Order let out a beastly and greedy roar, jumped off the board, and began to form a formation on the river beach.

The distance of 800 meters far exceeded the range of the crossbowmen at the head of the city of Chanda, and the few trebuchets visible to the naked eye were taken care of by the fleet's firepower, and the stone projectiles they threw were nothing compared to the fleet that constantly fired ballistas.

Every moment there are soldiers guarding the city head who are hit by ballistas, once hit, it is not an ordinary penetrating wound, the heavy crossbow arrows carry a huge impact force, spinning and flying over, which can directly cut a person into two pieces!

Kaiding armor, standing at the head of Chanda City, full of anxiety, he didn't have a hole card against the opponent's long-range weapon in his hand, but as soon as he fought, he had to show this hole card?

Rogge was also in a hurry, just now, he was also taken care of by a ballista, if he hadn't reacted quickly and leaned down in time, he would have turned into a pile of minced meat at this moment.

"Let me lead the cavalry to charge once!" Rogge said hurriedly, "It's not a way to get beaten like this! Now they only shoot giant crossbow arrows, and if they change to shoot gravel bullets, it will be too damaging to us!"

Kai shook his head decisively: "The cavalry is the main force of our Chanda counterattack, and it cannot be used lightly...... Let the warriors retreat from the walls, leaving only a few men on guard and operating trebuchets to fight back. Let's show weakness first, and then let them go!"

Rog stomped his foot, but turned away.

Soon, the soldiers who had previously concentrated at the head of Chanda retreated by four-fifths, leaving only a few catapults placed at the head of the city still "speaking", but under the "roll call" of the opposing ballista, they were quickly hit and turned into a pile of parts.

"Hold on a little longer!" Kai exclaimed, "Their ballistas can't fire for a long time indefinitely!"

As if to confirm Kai's words, it didn't take long for the design of the ballista on the opposite side to stop, and then, the two infantry squadrons that had already been assembled on the river beach began to press towards the wall of Chanda with neat steps.

"All to the city!" shouted Kai, drawing his sword from his waist, "Crossbowmen ready!"

In the sound of ho ho footsteps, the heroic fighters who had previously taken refuge under the city rushed to the city, staring at the two black phalanxes getting closer and closer.

When the first soldier of the Dark Army stepped into the city wall of Zenda, a "click" sound of a crossbow machine sounded out of thin air, and a black cloud from the towering head of Zenda City, dragging the sound of "squeaking" in the air, like a nightmare, like a giant hand, gave the dark army a hard slap on the head.

Thousands of heroic fighters, as well as thousands of Chanda garrisons, will be in their hands to dump the crossbow arrows on the approaching enemy, the past two years, Lao G has been hoarding armaments in case of contingency, the general standard heavy crossbow, can almost make the fighters in Chanda City have a hand, and even the original only good at close combat heroic fighters, have also stepped up training for two full years of shooting.

Such a dense long-range attack greatly surprised the Dark Legion, and at the first time, nearly three hundred soldiers of the Order were shot to the ground by the crossbows, and the sound of countless hail-like crossbow bolts nailed to the zither-shaped shield, occasionally mixed with the sound of the shield shattering, came and went, and the formation of the two squadrons of the Dark Army quickly became scattered and unable to be maintained.

The long sound of the horn was heard in the distance, and the soldiers of the Dark Army, struggling in the torrential rain of crossbows, raised their shields and crawled out of the effective range of the heavy crossbows at the head of the city of Chanda. With the soldiers leaving, the second round of ballista salvo began again, and the heavy arrows broke through the waves of blood in the crowd of cheering and unprepared Chanda defenders.

"Disperse, disperse!" Kai waved angrily, kicking and driving the warriors who were still clustered at the top of the city down the walls, and a new round of fire coverage began.

"It's so unpleasant to be pressed and beaten like this!" "At the base of the city wall, a dryer in bright armor looked up at Kai and said, "We spent so much money to ask Emmons when they will use those things they bought?"

Kai shook his head: "It's just the war now, and each other is testing, exposing those things so quickly will greatly reduce the effect!"

Dryer stall hand: "Then what now?

Kai said angrily: "What else can I do? Do you tell them that if you have the ability, you will come alone?"

The dryer touched his head and sat down depressed.

The crossbow bolts continued for more than thirty minutes, until the north and west walls of Zenda were already filled with dense giant arrows, and when they could climb up from the foot of the city wall smoothly, the opponent's ballista finally stopped.

Kai poked his head out and saw that there were many more black warships moored on the surface of the You River, and there were one hundred and sixty or seventy sails, and there were black people pouring down from each boat, gathering in a phalanx on the river beach, and one phalanx was fifteen hundred people, which was exactly the number of a squadron. Many of these phalanxes have already been organized, but they have no intention of attacking.

"What are they waiting for?" Kay asked Rog behind him, looking back.

Rogge shrugged.

"Are you waiting for us to give them Zenda ourselves?" Kai muttered to himself, confused.

As Kai spoke, a warship in the middle of the river that looked much larger than the other warships slowly turned, and the bow of the ship was facing the head of Chanda Castle in the middle.

"What are they doing?" Kai looked at it with some annoyance, only to see that the great ship had no mast and a wide chassis, and two thick iron chains protruding from the bow of the ship, which were connected to the two warships in front of it, and it was obvious that it was able to move by the towing of other warships.

On the deck of this battleship, a catapult a three-story high, a huge piece of counterweight was slowly pulled up.

Kai's face turned pale for a moment, and before he could say anything more, he saw the weight in the distance fall sharply, and in response, a slender lever cocked up, projecting a huge mass of rock.

Dull, but long, whistling, like thunder!!

The stones swirled, and at this moment, the world seemed to stand still, except for the thunderclap.

There was a huge roar, as if the heavens and the earth were shattered, and the city walls under his feet shook violently, and Kai was directly overturned on the city tower, screaming, thunderclapping, and all around. Stones burst out, and small stone bullets rustled like a torrential rain on the battlements.

When he got up, he only saw a huge crater with a diameter of at least five meters and a depth of nearly two meters on the river beach more than ten meters away from the city wall of Chanda.

In the center of the crater was a stone projectile the size of half an adult's torso, shattered, but the remnants weighed at least two hundred pounds.

Throw a two-hundred-pound stone projectile to this distance, this is a super-giant counterweight catapult, the real siege overlord of this era!
