Chapter 529: The Siege of the City
It is said that in the final battle to exterminate the Church of Shamith, the Classified Powers even sent half of the Dragon Knights for the Church of Sayles. ,!
Yang Chenyu has some regrets, if he can be exposed after the quicksand godhead is completely formed, it would be good.
Another siege failed, and the soldiers, completely demoralized, began to retreat to the walls.
And on the starting position a kilometer away from the city wall, a phalanx was already ready to go, and several priests wearing black priest robes waved their hands to constantly boost the morale of these soldiers.
"Your great Highness Sayles is watching you, valiant warriors, the cultists of the evil gods in the castle opposite are no longer powerful, and now is the time for you to gain glory! Even if you die in battle, you will be guided to the kingdom of God by the gods you believe in, and enjoy that blissful eternal life!"
The priests' white spoon encouragement immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the soldiers, and they raised their weapons under the guidance of the officers, and shouted: "Eradicate the evil gods!"
The priests wasted no time in spreading the Light of Justice and other buffs on the heads of the phalanx soldiers.
After the brilliance of the magic shone on the soldiers, the leading officer drew his long sword and pointed towards the castle: "Attack the castle!
Suddenly, the entire phalanx of thousands of soldiers roared, and then the phalanx moved and pressed towards the castle.
And as the phalanx moved, another phalanx stepped into the forward position, waiting for the moment of attack.
Perhaps in order to drain the power of the cultists in the castle, or perhaps not wanting to consume the high-end combat power too soon, this evil army organized by the Church of Sails adopted a wheel tactic.
Relying on strong military strength to maintain the oppression of the castle, the castle defenders have been in a tense state and have no rest.
Of course, such a wheel tactic is a great drain on soldiers.
But for Sayles Church, that's nothing.
The Sayles Church is not a big church like the Dawn Church, so even if it does its best this time, there is only one dragon knight and less than a hundred holy warriors, as for the priests, there are quite a few, but most of them are priest apprentices who have been trained through this, and the official priests are only fifteen or more.
The rest were generously aided by the Classified Nations, with more than 50,000 regular troops in addition to the three Dragon Knights.
Of course, these dragon knights don't attack easily, and no one knows what will happen in this kind of campaign against cultists.
For example, in the campaign to exterminate the Shamith Church, the dragon knights were dispatched prematurely, and as a result, the cultists of the evil gods summoned Shamith's spider projection, and were raided, and the two dragon knights were killed, which made the two kingdoms that sent the dragon knights extremely painful.
As the commander of the army, the leader of the paladin of the Church of Sails didn't care about the damage of ordinary soldiers at all, anyway, there could be no followers of His Highness Sayles among these soldiers, either the followers of the Lord of the Dawn or the gods of war, or the gods of agriculture.
In short, as long as the high-end combat power is not lost, so as to take the castle, even if all the 50,000 soldiers are consumed under the city walls, the Sayles Church will not be blamed at all, but will be praised by other churches.
Under the siege of the army, the castle was already full of wounded soldiers.
Crane this old age
I's mercenary boss has done enough.
Before the arrival of the army, he harvested all the grain outside the city, and then summoned all the troops back to the castle to prepare for the defense of the city.
Of course, he was not a rigid defender, and soon after the Sayles Church army entered the grassland, he sent dozens of mercenary squads to harass the church army.
Each mercenary squad was five in, and for them, this kind of sāo harassment was undoubtedly a death, but they still left the castle without hesitation.
Although these mercenary squads suffered heavy losses during the sāo harassment, they made a great contribution to the castle's preparations.
By the time the Church army slowly arrived at the castle, the entire castle was already in a state of full warfare.
For the wheel war of the church army, Crane had already prepared, he mixed all the young and strong with the standing army, divided into three teams, and took turns to defend the city, whether it was sixty or seventy old or ** years old, except for pregnant women, all the remaining entries were incorporated into the logistics support team.
These logistical support teams will be responsible for cooking, transporting fire oil and stones, treating the wounded, and even going into battle in a critical situation!
The magic apprentices led by Leonlido are the general reserves, and wherever there is a crisis, they will be thrown there.
As for Yanni's priests, they followed Yanni in the church
i Pray incessantly every night for the help of the god of quicksand.
Bi Jing, the strength of the enemy is too strong, even the number of mercenaries in the castle who inspire fighting spirit is more than 2,000.
But in this brutal siege of the city, their white spoon strength is not used at all, and they may be able to play the role of three or four soldiers, but they are also cannon fodder under the attack of giant crossbows and catapults.
What's more, the church army only sent ordinary soldiers to attack the city, and as for the more powerful mage regiment or even the dragon knights, the holy warrior regiment did not make a move.
The total number of entries is only 30,000, and it is surrounded by an army of 50,000, which will not be a victory, not to mention that even if the army of 50,000 is a second-rate army, it is also composed of young and strong, and in Crane Castle, only women and weak babies account for most of it.
There is no way, this is the biggest weakness of the new tribe, because of the excessive pursuit of the growth of the entrance, so that there are three children for every ten entrances.
When it comes to full calculations, the young men of Crane Castle are only seven or eight thousand, and the difference in strength is really a bit big.
Crane was ready to die with the castle, and even if he wasn't a believer in the god of quicksand, he wouldn't allow the castle he had worked so hard to build fall into the hands of the enemy.
This is the white spoon declaration of the believers of the god of quicksand.
Of course, Crane had already sent a request for help to the Dijing Kingdom, but the problem was that the strength of the Dijing Cavalry of the Dijing Kingdom was really a little weak, and the speed of the Giant Beast Legion was a little slow, although Bi Jing's Giant Beast Legion claimed to have more than two hundred Behemoths.
But there are a lot of slow-moving beasts like giant crocodiles, and besides, even if the giant beast army arrives, Crane doesn't have much hope of victory.
The other party has four dragon knights! It should be noted that the air force of the Behemoth Legion only has three two-legged dragon kings.
Well, although the bipedal wyvern belongs to the descendants of the dragon, but they are the descendants of the hybrids I don't know how many times, they don't even have a trace of dragon power, in addition to being able to fly, these Wyvern kings who are bigger than ordinary bipedal wyverns can only rely on their sharp claws to cause damage to enemy invasions.
