Chapter 413: Attacking the Fortress
With the sound of a ding-dong.
The camp changed from blue and white to red and white, and this area was officially completely occupied by the red and white forces.
Inside the tents of various functional types in the camp, ordinary humans dressed in red and white began to appear.
They cannot leave their respective camps and go outside the camp to the people who belong to their own tents.
Inside the various soldier recruitment camps, the soldiers began to come out.
A general capable of commanding 500 men appeared in the big camp, and he also belonged to Horn's men.
And the soldiers who kept coming out of the recruiting tent were the same as Horn's soldiers.
Horn is similar to the highest-ranking general of the entire Red and White Forces, each time he captures a camp or area, he will automatically fill the army according to the size of the camp and area, and these troops are provided to Horn for free, and there is a matching general.
These generals belong to the same level as soldiers, whether it is strength or the soldiers who can lead, they all belong to the most basic, and they need to constantly participate in battles to upgrade and lead more soldiers.
By the time the soldiers had begun to eat at night, more than 3,000 soldiers had been re-recruited after the occupation of the camp.
These numbers were almost the limit of the number of soldiers given to the camp after it was occupied.
Kane communicates with Claire through the ruby lavalier.
After they occupied the camp, they also had more than 3,000 troops, although these troops were all new soldiers, and they only had the strength of the bronze middle and upper rank.
In this way, the number of soldiers under Horn reached more than 10,000.
But these soldiers can't all be led into battle at once, like enemies, and they don't gather the entire map to attack Kane and them at once.
Horn is the supreme commander of the red and white forces, and the number of troops it leads depends entirely on the size of the territory it occupies, and his current limit of troops should be about 6,000.
The two extra subordinates plus their original subordinates add up to 1,500 troops.
In this way, the remaining soldiers need to stay in the camp.
Otherwise, wouldn't the enemy send a few powerful assassin squads to directly attack the camp in the rear and kill all the soldiers in this area?
So even if you leave the camp with the troops, you have to have soldiers behind.
After talking to Claire on the phone, we also discussed the time of tomorrow's meeting.
It's not that Kane doesn't want to take the fortress now.
They could, but not their soldiers, who needed a night's rest after a day's battle and a rapid march, otherwise their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.
……
Early the next morning, all the soldiers assembled outside the camp.
In addition to Kane's 600 soldiers, the 1,000 men selected by Horn's men were all melee and ranged infantry.
After all, today's theme is siege, and the knights play a small role, so they are all left inside the camp.
After choosing, he quickly rushed to the fortress with these 1,600 soldiers.
The rest of the soldiers were assigned the task and began to patrol around the camp.
The number of troops led by the general does not mean that these soldiers will defect, but they cannot lead these soldiers to battle.
But it's no problem at all to be able to defend, order patrols, and so on.
It's kind of a mechanic in this world.
"Kane, we've arrived at the rendezvous point, how long do you have left?"
On the ruby lavalier, Claire's voice was heard.
After hearing Clea's words, Kane immediately replied, "There are still about 2 kilometers to go. ”
The two camps were separated on either side of the fortress, but Claire and theirs were a little closer to the fortress.
Picking up a little speed, it wasn't long before Kane saw Claire and them from a distance.
Compared to Kane, who only led more than 1,000 soldiers behind him, Claire had more than 6,000 behind them.
More than 6,000 soldiers belong to a variety of different professions, neatly arranged and pleasing to the eye.
After the teams brought to both sides converged, the two generals went directly to Horn's side.
The meeting place at this time is the avenue leading to the fortress.
Outpost towers can be seen erected every few hundred meters, but none of them have a single soldier on board.
Looking at the traces, you can see that there were people who stayed here not so long ago.
"It seems that the news of the occupation of the two camps has reached the ears of the generals of the fortress." Horn said as he looked around and saw no sign of enemy soldiers.
"The soldiers who were used for vigilance and patrol were all recalled."
After a few brief words, Horn drew the long sword at his waist and shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Forward!" ”
The whole team maintained a neat line and began to move slowly forward, with Kane and the others at the front of the line.
Horn looked at Kane and the others beside him and couldn't help but ask, "Are you really sure to capture the fortress?" You know, we don't have any engineering equipment right now. ”
He was still a little uneasy, after all, if he went to attack the fortress without any engineering equipment, it would be completely hitting a stone with an egg.
Hearing Horn's concern, Kane smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, Captain Horn, of course we say this with confidence, and we won't joke with the lives of soldiers." ”
Hearing Kane's words, Horn nodded.
Looking at the road, there are all traces of the evacuation of various patrol soldiers and guard soldiers at the outpost.
"The generals of the fortress already knew we were coming, and they must have known that we were back from the ashes.
He should have sent his soldiers to various places to ask for help by now, and we must take the fortress as soon as possible, or we will have to wait for death when their reinforcements come in. ”
Hearing Horn's words, Kane nodded in agreement.
Kane: The dungeon information they got was provided by Clea's mother, and it was basically a very detailed request from the dungeon.
It is clearly written that no matter what the explorers want to do in the future, the first task in the early stage must be to take this fortress in the shortest possible time, otherwise it will definitely fail.
Before the enemy reacts and the support personnel arrive, the entire fortress must be taken and relied on the fortress for defensive warfare, and it will be encroached on outward.
The fortress can't be taken, so even if Kane and they take the surrounding camps, they are like turtles in an urn, slowly eaten away by the personnel who keep supporting them.
It doesn't make sense for Kane to be able to reach a thousand, the enemy will gather all the Silver Tier soldiers together to kill them.
The silver soldiers of the entire force pulled out tens of thousands, and there was no problem at all.
Of course, these soldiers belong to camps in various places, and it is impossible to say that they are all gathered together casually, so what are they playing, just surrender directly.
There is no specific explanation of how to act later in the information, but only the text of the fortress is taken, and its importance can be clearly marked on the information.
After all, if you can't take it, then you will fail to clear the customs.
Far away, Kane, they could already see the fortress.
The moment he saw the fortress, Kane finally knew, why did he take this fortress so quickly?
The height of the fortress is nearly 20 meters, and it is flanked by towering cliffs that stand like giant door frames.
And this majestic fortress acts as a doorway.
All kinds of city defense equipment have been erected on the fortress, and there are dense soldiers standing on it, and it seems that they have been preparing for a long time.
After advancing some distance again.
Horn raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately stopped.
This position is out of the enemy's reach.
Horn shouted to the fortress, "Maas, open the gates and welcome death, don't make useless struggles, you can't defend this fortress under our attack." ”
A voice was heard from afar above the fortress.
"Horn didn't expect you to be alive and not dead, and actually let you succeed in counterattacking, that strange idiot, you can't even take the hundreds of remnants of your last few remnants."
"But your current strength wants to take down the gate fortress, and you look down on this fortress too much, in such a short time, you can't build many engineering equipment, and the soldiers who support me are about to arrive, so let's go back to the camp quickly and enjoy your last time."
The enemy generals were still taunting Horn.
"Captain Horn, it seems that he has no intention of surrendering at all." Kane said with a smile.
Hearing Kane's words, Horn laughed and said, "Hahaha, of course he can't really surrender, but he always has to scold a few words before every battle, otherwise he feels that something is missing." ”
After finishing speaking, he stared at Kane and said solemnly and solemnly: "It's up to you now, I hope you didn't deceive us." ”
"Don't worry."
As Kane finished speaking, magic poured out of his hand, and he built a thick barrel around him, pointing at the fortress in the distance ahead.
Spend mana.
A cannonball slammed into the walls of the fortress.
"Bang!"
A loud bang exploded on the city wall, and the enemy generals who were still cursing were startled by this loud noise, and the sound was interrupted instantly.
Then he quickly looked towards the place where the explosion sounded, and saw that an area of the city wall had been blown black, and some stones had fallen off slightly.
Seeing this, the general couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, stroked his chest, and then continued to laugh at them.
"That's it? Is this how you have the confidence to storm the fortress? Hahahaha, I almost blew up the ashes of the fortress, which scared people to death. Haha......"
Listening to the enemy general's invective, Horn turned his head and looked at Kane.
"Don't worry, I'm testing the hardness of their walls, otherwise it will be a bit troublesome to repair if I use too much force." Kane said lightly, his voice calm.
Hearing Kane's words, Horn nodded and stopped dwelling.
Claire and the others were calm, fully confident that Kane would be able to break through the fortress.
After all, they had seen some of Kane's powerful methods, not to mention breaking through the fortress, and it was not impossible to level the entire fortress.
Kane then proceeded to adjust the caliber of the barrel and the power of the shells.
Shells kept blasting on enemy forts.
And the insulting voice of the enemy general gradually changed from arrogance to panic with the sound of explosions.
"Bang!"
Another loud bang was heard in the fortress.
"Hey! What have you done, hit it if you want, don't use spells there all the time. The panic in his voice was visible to the naked eye.
This loud bang directly blew a hole in the wall of the fortress.
Looking at this situation, Horn also smiled.
Looking at the results of this cannonball, Kane nodded in satisfaction and waved away the cannon beside him.
He now knew pretty much the hardness of the fortress, and he was able to guarantee that the next blow would break through the fortress.
However, he was not ready to use artillery.
Dragon horns appeared on his head, dragon scales appeared on his neck, golden light spread on his body, and a circle of light appeared on his back.
The long-lost state has entered the strongest state.
The mechanical structures began to spread out in the hands, and these mechanical structures overlapped each other and became larger and larger.
With a flicker, Kane appeared in front of the fortress door.
The huge machine in his hand smashed directly towards the boulder gate of the fortress.
