Gwen rode on his war horse to supervise the battle, and watched his soldiers climb the city wall with shields on their shoulders and ladders.

However, as soon as most of the people approached the city, they were picked down by the spears of the defenders above, or they were stoned and fell from the sky screaming.

Even if one or two warriors were lucky enough to make it to the top of the city, they often couldn't hold it out for too long, and they were driven down again.

And in just a short time, many vassals have come to him to complain, saying that his men have suffered too many casualties and need to be withdrawn to rest before they can continue fighting.

Their request was unsurprisingly rejected by Ge Wen, but Ge Wen also saw that the casualties of the troops were indeed a bit large.

Obviously, the opponent is just a group of untrained civilians, many of whom are not even equipped with armor, but they have just blocked the siege of the army, and no wall of the city has been lost at present.

This is a bit far from Ge Wen's previous imagination that as soon as the king master arrived, the rabble would collapse without a fight.

Ge Wen even wondered if his vassals were all concerned about casualties and did not really contribute.

But now is not the time for reckoning, Ge Wen turned around and asked Quintus on the side, "What about the internal response in the city, why hasn't there been any movement yet?" ”

Quintus said, "They will light a beacon fire to inform us when they take control of the city gates, but Lord Gwen, should we ...... again?"

Before the High Priest could finish his words, he saw Ge Wen's expression perk, because the beacon fire had indeed risen at the south gate of the Scaly City.

"Tell Otto to get his men ready to attack, and take control of the gates as soon as they enter the city."

Gwen instructed one of his attendants, "I don't care if those guys surrender or not, since Herodotus dares to give us the gates, we will make him pay the price." ”

Otto, from the Friedhill family, received the order and led his own 300 warriors and 700 militia to rush in as soon as the south gate opened.

They took control of the gates, including the towers on both sides, as fast as they could, clearing the stunned defenders from inside before Otto sent a report to Gwen.

Ge Wen couldn't help but be overjoyed, this time he did not sit in the rear again, but personally led the army to kill in the scaly city.

Gwen hopes that this fight can show the style of the Figuerola family as much as possible, and also establish a prestige for him, reminding the world that Ilea is not the only famous player in the West.

The defenders in the city also found that the south gate was lost at this time, and the reinforcements came quickly, and they happened to collide with Ge Wen and others.

Without any hesitation, the acting city lord of Rock Snow City immediately showed his sword and rushed into the crowd.

Herodotus' reinforcements arrived, but all of them were civilians, and although their morale was good, they had lost the protection of the high walls, and they looked a little helpless in the face of the knights in full armor.

On the other hand, Gwen and the elite warriors of the Figuerola family behind him were as unstoppable as a flock of sheep, and in a few breaths they had already cut down a dozen people, and the rest of them were finally starting to feel fear.

In particular, the army behind Gwen was still coming, so the defenders began to waver, and then it turned into a rout.

Ge Wen finally experienced the expected heartiness, this is right, how can the people who fight the Blood Moon Society compare to him.

However, just when Gwen felt that the situation was settled and the city of Scales had been taken down, he heard the exclamations of the attendants around him.

Many people craned their necks to look at the sky.

Ge Wen also raised his head, and saw a dense black dot in the air, flying towards here.

But they weren't arrows, they were jars!

Gwen's face instantly turned ugly, he didn't expect Herodotus to hide so many trebuchets in the Scaly City.

And it seems that there are quite a few of them, at least a hundred, but considering that Herodotus had packed up almost all the craftsmen in the city before he left.

It didn't seem surprising that he was able to build so many trebuchets.

Ge Wen didn't have time to think about it, so he turned over and dismounted under the escort of Hu Cong, and hurriedly hid behind a haystack next to him.

The jars whizzed through the sky, but fortunately, most of them hit the city wall, and only a small part hit people, but before Ge Wen could breathe a sigh of relief, he smelled a strange smell.

The acting city lord of Rock Snow City was stunned for a moment, and then his face couldn't help but change greatly, "Pine resin, damn it, those guys are going to attack with fire!" ”

Gwen then shouted, "Everyone, withdraw from Multiscale City for the time being!" ”

However, it was a little late for him to give his order, and the south gate was originally the smallest gate in the Scaly City, and it was basically just enough to accommodate two carriages to pass through.

At this time, most of the army led by Ge Wen had already entered, and after realizing that the jar contained pine resin, everyone was running out of the city, but the city gate was squeezed and impassable.

Even Gwen, the coach, couldn't get out, and at this time the second wave of canisters came, mixed with rockets.

It is true that Herodotus could not fight, but he also had the advantage of being a good learner.

Clara, the little maid, used a lot of small scientific experiments to deceive him, and then Herodotus gradually pondered the taste, but he did not get angry, but felt that a new world had been opened.

Since then, he has begun to pay more attention to the use of natural elements, and although he still can't summon thunder and lightning out of thin air like Li Yu, he has developed some new weapons through this.

In addition, the battles of the Wing-Clan in Lionheart also gave him some inspiration.

Herodotus piled up a large amount of dry wood and forage near the south gate, and the pine resin and rockets that rained down from the sky soon caused the fire to ignite.

And the more the flames burned, the more panicked and crowded the people at the city gates became.

It was at this time that Ilkand also appeared with a troop of cavalry.

They had come out of the city secretly through the secret passages on the west side, and had come around to the south, with the appearance of less than two hundred men.

This number of people is naturally not enough in normal times.

But now it has become the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Together with the relentless fire, they flanked Gwen and his army trapped at the gates, charging through the crowd.

This time it was the attacker's turn to break down morale, and the crowd began to riot, with everyone struggling to escape for their lives.

But at this moment, everyone was huddled together, most of them couldn't even draw their weapons, and it felt like it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe, and the huge pressure around them almost squeezed everyone's body.

Quintus had never seen such a horrific scene, and more people had died from trampling and crushing than in the flames and under the swords of the enemy.
