Chapter 62: Breaking the Camp

The crash made by Earl Corbilly's sweeping troops overnight was very simple, that is, three thick tree trunks formed a tripod, and then two tripods were connected to form a triangular frame, and a giant tree with a sharpened head hung with a rope in the middle, and when it reached the barracks gate, it could use the pendulum principle to push the giant wood to hit the gate. Four wheels were installed under the crash car, and dozens of garrisons were pushing the crash car forward, and there were garrisons with wooden platoons to cover it.

The crossbow archers on the parapet wall of the barracks naturally aimed their targets at the crash, and for a while the arrows rained down, and a group of people near the crash turned on their backs, and the wails of the arrows were endless. It's just that the attention of the crossbow archers was focused on the collision and gave the enemy longbows who were relying on the wooden platoon to approach the barracks give them a chance, and they flashed out from behind the wooden platoon, aiming at the crossbow archers on the parapet wall is a round of rapid fire, more than a dozen crossbow archers screamed and rolled off the parapet, and several of them had long arrows stuck in their faces and died on the spot.

The remaining crossbowmen hurriedly shifted their targets to the longbowmen, one covered by a wooden platoon and the other covered by a wall, and it was difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat. The longbowmen have closed the distance and are a great threat to the crossbowmen, and the distance is now direct fire from both sides. The crossbow winds slowly, but it is easy to aim and fierce. The longbow fires fast, and the crossbow shoots three arrows after shooting one arrow, but the longbow shoots seven or eight arrows in a row and must rest and return the force.

Taking advantage of the fact that the crossbow archers on the parapet wall of the barracks were entangled by the longbowmen, the garrisons who pushed the crash car exerted their strength, and soon pushed the crash car to the gate of the barracks, and when they were about to take a few steps forward to hit the gate, several canisters were thrown from the parapet walls on both sides of the gate, some fell to the ground and some fell on the crash car, and after the canisters were broken, the slimy liquid in them splashed everywhere on the crash car.

A garrison with a cart touched the liquid splashed on his body with his fingers, his face changed greatly, and he shouted in horror: "It's oil.......!

A burning torch in the desperate eyes of the cart garrison turned and fell on the crash, "whew" crashed into a large fire, next to the collision of a dozen or so garrisons on fire like headless flies around the collision, a few of the body on fire quickly rolled on the ground with the help of other garrisons to extinguish the fire on their bodies, three panicked and jumped into the moat on both sides of the road, the fire was extinguished, but these three were quickly frozen in the cold river and sank to the bottom. There were also four torches that had been stained with too much oil and turned into human shapes, staggering and screaming, until a few of the garrisons could not stand it anymore and gave them a spear to end their suffering.

"Whew......" Another crossbow archer with an arrow in the shoulder fell to the parapet, and several spearmen rushed over and pulled him down. The commander of the sweeping force on the opposite side was ruthless, and sent all five squads of longbowmen to shoot at the crossbowmen, although there were nearly 100 longbowmen killed and wounded, but the remaining 500 or so longbows still shot so that the crossbowmen on the wall could not lift their heads.

Lorist found that there were only about 70 crossbow archers left in the hundred, and they were extremely passive by the longbowmen outside, often shooting five or six arrows back. After thinking about it, he asked Reddy to bring himself a large shield, and he would attract the attention of the longbowmen outside later, so that the crossbow archers could take the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Taking a deep breath, Lorist suddenly stood up from the parapet. Such a large person appeared on the parapet and suddenly became a target for the longbowmen. First, dozens of arrows flew towards Lorlist, which were blocked one by one by Lorlist's large shield in his left hand and his long sword in his right hand, then more than a hundred arrows, and finally more than five hundred longbowmen all shot at Lorlist......

On Sunday, Lorist squatted under the parapet, and his scalp was still a little numb. I originally thought it was simple, but with my talent for dynamic vision, I should be able to catch the arrows that come at me, after all, these arrows will become very slow under my own concentration. Dozens of arrows are no problem, a hundred or so I took it myself, but more than 500 arrows almost shot myself into a hedgehog, too many, I was overwhelmed, if it wasn't for the big shield to protect the body, I would have been played to death by myself, it was really thrilling, how could I forget the principle that a large number will cause a quantitative change?

Looking at the shield with nearly a hundred long arrows inserted next to him, Lorist felt that his left hand was still trembling, the force brought by so many long arrows hitting the shield was difficult to resist even if he carried his internal strength, which he didn't expect just now, it was too risky, it was like dancing a veneer dance with death. The only thing to be happy about was that while those longbowmen were paying attention to themselves, the crossbowmen launched a counterattack and knocked down more than thirty or forty longbowmen on the other side.

The mopping force outside now sent sword and shield men to cover the burning crash car with sand, and after extinguishing the fire, they pushed the burned crash car to the side of the road to make way for the second crash car. The second crash and the third crash behind are making corrections while moving. There were two more small wooden houses on both sides of the second crash, and the people who pushed the carts were hiding in the small houses, and there were people next to them who poured water and spread sand on the crashed cars.

Soon, it took more than half an hour, the second crash car was pushed to the front of the barracks gate with a "creaking" sound, a long rope was tied to the giant tree hanging in the triangular frame, dozens of sword and shield soldiers ran over to pick up the rope, began to pull back, and then after an order, they all let go of the rope, and the giant tree that was pulled back slammed on the barracks gate with a huge momentum, and even the parapet near the gate was a strong vibration.

Reddy didn't pay attention, and was holding the canister of fire oil in both hands and handing it to Lorist, and with a shock, he planted it under the parapet, and if it hadn't been for Pat's quick hand to catch him, Reddy's head would have broken and his head would have flowed.

Lorist was stamping his feet when he had just thrown a couple of canisters of kerosene, and the spot was targeted by several longbowmen. As soon as he shot a pot of kerosenic oil, he was shot through the air by a long arrow, and the kerosene splattered everywhere, dousing Lorlist's head and face. This is mainly because Lorist himself didn't expect it, and he didn't react, otherwise he could have avoided it.

"Borg, I'll leave it to you first, I'll have to go down and clean it up. Lorist shouted at Boderfinger on the other side of the door. He had to get rid of the oil on his head and body, or he would be a humanoid torch as soon as he got close to the fire.

Lorist hurried down the parapet with Reddy and Pat, and was not too far away. Reddy ran to get a large basin of hot water, and also took a piece of soap, and asked Lorist to clean his head and face, and he took the scale armor that Lorist had taken off, grabbed a large handful of sand from the ground and covered the scale armor with oil, and then took a piece of linen mixed with sand and soil to wipe off the oil. Pat rode to the tent, where Lorist's usual change of clothes was kept, and he had to get a new one.

The sound of the barracks gate being slammed came from time to time. The battle was so fierce that I still had time to take a shower and change clothes, and I felt a little sore when I thought that Lorist was also drunk.

"It's burning!" came Rose's cheers from the other side of the parapet.

When I turned my head to look, the black smoke billowing from outside the barracks gate rushed upward, but the sound of banging on the gate continued......

After drying his head and face, changing his clothes, and putting on the scale armor that had been wiped fresh again, Lorist walked quickly up to the parapet and looked down, the crash car was burning, but it did not affect the sword and shield soldiers behind him to pull the giant wood and continue to hit the barracks gate.

"Reddy, get me two cans of kerosene, Pat, light the torches for me. Lorist commanded.

This time, Lorist aimed at the sword and shield soldier who was pulling the rope behind the collision, and the two canisters of fire oil smashed into the middle of the sword and shield soldier one after the other, and then the torch also arrived, and suddenly there were dozens of humanoid torches crying wolf howling outside.

The pounding on the barracks gate stopped, and most importantly, the rope pulled behind the giant log was burned. When the wet area on top of the crash car is steamed dry, the crash car will also become a large fire.

"Master, the door seems to be about to break. Reddy said.

Lorist went down to look, and the two wooden doors of the barracks were slanted half a meter into the barracks by the impact, and a thin person could crawl through the cracks in the doors. The top of the three iron bolts placed horizontally on the gate was the most deformed, and the whole bulge inward into a bow. The iron bolt in the middle is only slightly protruding, and the lower one is still intact.

"Leave this gate alone, we're not going to defend against it anyway. To be honest, we can't open the door normally now, it's so deformed. I was afraid that the enemy outside would not continue to attack, so I just withdrew and we were trapped inside. Lorist laughed.

Fortunately, the enemy outside refused to give up, and they sent a large number of garrisons to extinguish the crash car, and then pulled the burned crash car to the side to make way for the third crash car.

The third crash car was more thoughtfully protected, it became a long large house, and a herringbone wooden shed was built from the roof of the crash car to protect the guards who pushed the cart and pulled the giant log. And the outside of the wooden shed was also coated with a thick layer of wet mud.

The wooden shed moved even slower, and it took more than two hours to reach the barracks gate. Lorist and the defending crossbowmen had lunch. Bodfinger and Rose also took a nap.

Shi Fatzi was very worried about the situation at the gate of the barracks, so he ran to the parapet wall again, and brought El over. Seeing the wooden shed crashing close to the gate, he asked Lorist with a pale face: "You just let it get close, don't you want to stop it in any way?"

Lorist thought it was funny, this Shi Fat Man, you said personal force, now it is three silver stars, and after a while, it will reach the peak of silver, and the promotion to the gold level is just around the corner, even if he is responsible for so many things during this time, he is busy to death, and it is said that the honey and oil that he gave him are good for the maid Jasmine, and they are sticky at night, but no matter what, he can find time for fighting training, and this will and tenacity make people have to be convinced.

Speaking of ability, even Bodfinger voluntarily backed down and gave him the position of chief family knight, making him the chief manager of the entire northbound convoy. And Shi Fatzi also lived up to everyone's expectations, and all the big and small things of the team were managed by him in an orderly manner. I remember that Count Miranda was full of praise for Shi Fat Man in private, and was very envious of how he had found such a great manager, and even said in front of him that Shi Fat Man was enough to serve as a cabinet minister of a kingdom. You must know that at that time, Shi Fatzi was still injured and had been lying on the soft couch, and the management of things was also carried around.

Don't look at what Shi Fatzi said at the military strategy meeting, but as soon as he went to the battlefield, everything went wrong. The six gods have no master, their hearts are frightened, the soles of their hands and feet are sweating, their faces are pale, and their expressions are in a trance, they don't have the appearance of a silver three-star master at all, and their performance is not as good as that of a recruit who can't fight.

Lorist is very strange, where is the calm and courage of Shi Fat Man in the face of Warcraft when he was a mercenary? And it's not that he hasn't seen dead people, and he has several lives under his command, and he doesn't faint blood, how can he become like this?

Shi Fatzi said that as soon as he came to the battlefield, as soon as he saw so many dead people, he felt faint when he heard the shouts of killing and screams, and he himself did not understand what was going on. Bodfinger and Rose were not very surprised, Rose said that it was because Fat Shi had seen too few big scenes, and when Fat Smith got used to using corpses as stools and eating bread stained with human blood, it would not be like this.

"Uh......" Fat Shi ran to vomit.

Alas, this fat man obviously has such a battlefield syndrome, and he likes to run to the battlefield to join in the fun.

Lorist replied patiently: "No, defense, you can't just focus on one goal, you have to take into account all kinds of situations that arise." We can prevent this wooden shed from crashing close to the barracks gate, but that will be very costly, and it will be more than worth the loss for us, which is something that the wise do not do. You've also seen that this wooden shed crash is ready for fire and arrows, but you can see soon that this crash will be a help for our defense, which the enemy did not expect. ”

However, what Lorist said soon did not come true, and the wooden shed crashed for a while, knocking the iron bolt on the barracks gate away, and a large hole was knocked out of the gate, revealing the faces of several surprised garrisons.

Lorist called a few crossbow archers to shoot at the door and burst into the hole, and there was a scream from inside the wooden shed crash. It took a while for the hole in the gate to be sealed by several shields, and then half an hour passed, presumably adjusting the position of the giant tree, lowering it so that it could continue to hit the gate below.

It wasn't until Lorist got tired of waiting that the crash started working again, and the "bang-bang" sound sounded again.

This time it was very fast, and only about 20 times it hit the barracks gate, and even the door frame collapsed.

"The door is broken!" The cheers in the wooden shed had just sounded, and Lorist and El were like two strong winds that had slammed into the wooden shed to the left and right of the crash. Now those who pushed the cart, the garrison who pulled the huge wooden rope fell into bad luck, who pushed the cart and pulled the rope still carried the blade, the unarmed garrison was killed without the power to fight back, except for a few legs at the back of the wooden shed, the sixty or seventy garrisons who stayed in the wooden shed were all killed by Lorist and El, the corpses were piled up in the small wooden shed, so that the two of them had little place to stand, and the blood flowed from under the wooden shed, merging into bright red streams......

Lorist rejected Bodfinger's volunteer, and instead took El to the wooden shed to rush and kill, the reason why he liked El's dark attribute fighting spirit had a better play in a small and tight space, and El also had night vision, and the wooden shed was pitch black, and El was there to avoid accidental injuries and missing the enemy who was hiding.

While Lorist and El were busy in the wooden shed, the barracks were not idle, and Reddy and Patra brought some thick ropes and wrapped them tightly around the crashing car, and then tied the other end of the rope to several stakes, and then hammered the stakes deep into the ground. Now the wooden shed crash has been fixed in front of the broken barracks gate, becoming a new obstacle. Let Shi Fat understand the reason why Lorist said that this wooden shed crash will be a defensive help.

The garrisons, lancers, and leaders of the unifying troops of the sweeping troops outside were all so angry that their eyes were so angry, how could they not follow the rules? Didn't the defenders either scatter in a hurry after the attackers broke through the gate, or gather their men and horses to form up in formation, wait for the attackers to retreat and crash, and then rush in to decide the victory? How could they take the crashed cars and use them as a basis for defense? How could this really be unreasonable!

"Demolition!"

So the garrisons began to dismantle the wooden shed where the car had crashed again, and after tossing and turning for an hour, the wooden shed was finally dismantled, and the bodies of the killed garrisons were also moved. But what should I do if the crash car is fixed and I can't go back?

A squadron of lancers was called up, the horses were facing the barracks, several long thick ropes were attached to the crashing car, and the lancers engaged in a tug-of-war with the stakes.

The tug-of-war competition lasted for more than half an hour, and even the lancer squad guarding the back door of the barracks was recruited back, and together with the nearly 1,000 pack horses that were driven out of the camp, the sweeping troops finally won the tug-of-war competition. It's just that the result of this game is a bit tragic, because Lorist is more narrow, and cut the rope when the stake rope is the tightest, so the crash flew towards the players of the tug-of-war competition that swept the troops, and all the way to the rolling, dozens of unlucky ghosts and unlucky horses who could not react became the victims of flesh and blood.

While the garrison outside was stunned by the tragic situation caused by the crash, Lorist ordered everyone to push a wooden cart that had been prepared to block the gate of the broken barracks. By the time the reacting garrisons tried to stop it, the wooden cart had become a new barracks gate.

"I'm grass, there's still no end!" The garrison outside let out a deafening shout, and some of them rushed up to push the wooden cart back, but the people behind the wooden cart were not welcome. There were three rows of spear tips in front of the wooden cart, and the garrison in front thought it was fixed and used for intimidation, but they didn't know that this was a movable spear. The people behind the wooden platoon pushed, and those who rushed up to push the cart all made ghosts. Now no one dared to approach the wooden cart.

The bastards of Count Cobilly, who commanded this sweeping force, were so angry, from early morning to afternoon, it was almost a day, and their own team suffered five or six hundred casualties, but they hadn't even entered the gate of the barracks, and now the crash is gone, and the wooden cart is not easy to approach, what should I do?

"Burn, set fire to the wooden cart for me. ”

Several garrisons threw bags of oil on wooden carts and lit a fire.

You burn me, I will burn," come on, bring up the carts of firewood that have been prepared, and we will make a fire here at night. Lorist said.

When the garrison outside found out that the defenders inside were also throwing firewood at the wooden cart and reported that the gate of the barracks had turned directly into a big fire, several of Earl Cobilly's bastards were simply mad. At this moment, it snowed heavily in the sky, and the bastard son at the head was overjoyed: "Aha, God help us! It's snowing heavily! I see how he burns!"

Lorist also regretted: "It seems that God also wants to take the lives of these people as soon as possible, I originally wanted them to live one more night, inform everyone to get ready, tonight will be a night of killing." ”

The fire was finally extinguished, and a dozen garrisons rushed in to pull aside the firewood that was still smoking sparks and smoke, and the rumbling of horses' hooves was already ringing outside the barracks, and the squadron of lancers was about to rush in, and the garrisons let out cheers: "Kill them, kill them all!"
