Chapter 317: The Battle of Glen Fort (10)
The perimeter of Glenburg was completely under the control of the Leviathan's army, and the two sides were separated by a wall, and although there was no way for bows and arrows to reach the opposite wall, things like ballistas and catapults were still easy to attack. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info But the strange thing is that the enemy soldiers didn't set up ballistas and catapults on the city walls, probably because they were afraid that they would attack if they saw it, so the loss was really a bit big. Even the Leviathan army couldn't have wasted those siege engines like this. And there are those who bring out, only the main army, do you think those ragtag armies will prepare this thing! How is it possible! And the main army...... There are only about a million, so the heavy equipment they have is actually similar to the defenders of Glenburg. After all, they were on the expedition, and Lancelot was on the defensive. Of course, if you defend, you can prepare more, but if you go on an expedition, how can you have so much? After all, those things are heavy equipment, heavy equipment! The speed is very slow, at most the speed is the same as that of ordinary infantry, and it is certainly impossible to maintain it all the time. The more you bring this thing, the slower the march will be. What's more, there is also the existence of ladder trucks, which are even more terrifying, and if you bring a bunch of catapults, ballistas, and rushing cars...... Play with eggs!
In the "......" command room, the atmosphere was very solemn. The first wall was breached, and they have lost about 50,000 men by now, as for the enemy...... Lancelot didn't know, but anyway, there were no 500,000, and he thought too much, how could he have killed so many people in battle.
This creates a very awkward place...... Once all three walls are breached, it will be even more difficult for them to fight...... The defender's losses are generally much smaller than the attackers' losses, that's a sure thing, unless the walls are too ****** and the Engineer and the lord have a grudge, otherwise it is unlikely that the defenders will lose as much or more than the attackers. The simplest example is that the third wall of Glenburg was guarded by two or three thousand soldiers, and the killing of their bows and arrows alone amounted to tens of thousands, not to mention the ballistas and catapults and the final duel on the walls.
"What should we do next, Your Majesty?" then, Bonett asked, "Now that the first wall has been breached, the defense of the second side is not as good as the third, if they attack again tomorrow, it is estimated that the second side will be quickly breached......
"I know that, I know this......" Lancelot muttered, frowning, "I know this...... Tomorrow, the second wall will be breached, and then we will have to retreat to the third side, where the defense is the most solid......"
"If it's the third side, I'm confident that I can hold out for at least three days under that kind of offensive. The third wall is also high, and there are many shooting holes in it, and crossbow arrows can be shot from it, and the firepower is stronger than the first two walls combined!"
“...... If you really retreat to the third side, it may be difficult to fight after that...... Flip it over. ”
"Retreat to the third side, didn't Your Majesty say that we can engage in magic battles? In this case, at least we can still have a certain advantage!"
"......" looked at the useless map, Lancelot took a deep breath, and then said slowly, "In that case, I have an idea......
"What's the idea?"
"One thing is simple, and that's ...... Counteroffensive back. ”
"Counterattack?" Hearing this, Bonet was stunned for a moment, "How can we counterattack?
"Send the Assassins, kill those who tell the news, and then organize an army of 10,000 people to find a way to recapture the first wall!"
“...... Your Majesty, with all due respect, the success rate of this kind of thing is terrifyingly low. ”
"I know that, I know ......," muttered softly, and then, with Lancelot clenching his fists, "but now, in this situation, there is only one way!
“...... Yes, Your Majesty!"
......
In this night raid station, Lancelot did not participate in the battle, but went back to get a good night's sleep. After a whole day of fierce fighting, Lancelot was already exhausted, and if his condition became worse tomorrow, how would he confront the enemy? How could he defend the second wall? Although even he knew that as long as the enemy increased his attack, no, if he only needed to maintain this offensive, Lancelot and they would not be able to hold the second wall, because the defense of this wall was the weakest one. If you talk about the third wall, there are some possibilities.
But when Lancelot woke up, he knew that the night raid had failed. Dagonit seems to have been prepared for a long time, resulting in the 10,000 soldiers sent by Bonet not returning. Moreover, it was the first time that they had lost even less than Glenburg.
But the suicide squad was not useless, because they caused the enemy's offensive to slow down a lot, so that Lancelot and they also had a lot of rest and preparation time. But...... If you cower, it doesn't look like your own style!
Thus, the battle on the third day began in this way. Due to the first wall, the ladder cart could no longer drive in, so if the Leviathan army wanted to climb the wall, they had to rely on the ladder. However, those things can still be used, except that the ladder truck has been scrapped, there is not much difference.
Maybe it's because there are only ladders, or maybe it's because the enemy has a lot fewer long-range attack methods, which makes Lancelot feel that today's battle is obviously much easier to fight than yesterday. However, this feeling did not last long. In any case, Dagonit had as many as five million troops to attack Glenburg! To be honest, the one million they were able to take with them, that is, if they won two by one, was already remarkable. 1 win 10...... Funny, come here! What a possible thing! Bastard!
But even so, the opponent's attack is still fierce, and Lancelot can only hope that he can resist the enemy's attack as much as possible, and if nothing goes wrong, then it will be fine...... At least, this wall can't be broken after one day of guarding like before!Ah, perhaps, two days before...... (To be continued.) )
