As the horn on the flagship sounded, the horn in the Lantis fleet responded back and forth, and the entire fleet immediately began to move nervously, and several small assault ships had swam to the front of the fleet, bypassing the direction of Haiti, and speeding towards the port.

"Before dawn, I want my soldiers' feet to stand on the beach of Osgilia!"

Gislent coldly ordered.

※※※

The battle at sea began with the roar of ballistas!

The rows of huge arrow towers built along the coast and mountains in the port area of Osgilia were originally the coastal defense system built by the Byzantine Empire after several generations of national strength, and were originally considered imaginary enemies to deal with the invincible ships of the Kingdom of Lantis.

The towers in the forest are lined with a large number of heavy ballistae, as well as small catapults. In the direction of the sea, two sea lifts blocked the entrance to the sea port, leaving only a narrow sea for ships to navigate.

Once an enemy ship breaks in, the dense ballista of the harbor turrets will completely cover the narrow estuary!

Although the coastal fortifications were not occupied by the rebels for a long time, the rebels did not have enough time to familiarize themselves with these ballistae and coastal defense operations.

However, these coastal fortifications in the port have been in operation for many years, and the ballistas and catapults have almost already adjusted the coordinates and the orientation of the projection. When shooting, you don't even need to deliberately aim at the MP - just radiate towards the narrow inlet of the sea.

As soon as the two medium-sized assault ships of the Landisians burst into the mouth of the sea, they were immediately covered by the dense ballistae of the harbor fortifications.

The firing of giant ballistas, the kind of ballistas made of thick crossbow spears, and even some hammer cannons with chains!

The entry of two assault ships, almost in a quarter of an hour, one of the assault ships was broken with the mainmast, and staggered to the side, and on top of the large ship, countless small boats were lowered, and Landis's navy began to row small boats towards the coast.

On top of the arrow tower, the archers began to act, and a dense rain of arrows fell towards the sea!

The advance of the Landis, paid a considerable price, put down the assault boats, under the attack of the dense bows and crossbows on the coast, every moment there were Landis's soldiers killed and wounded by arrows, although the soldiers of Landis have raised their shields to resist, but those roaring giant ballistae and chain hammers, often as long as they hit, can directly smash those small boats into the sea.

In the distance, Landis's naval battleship finally pulled out of its stance, its hull lined up, and the ballistae on the battleship began to return fire.

The Lantis navy is invincible, the manufacturing process of warships is far superior to that of Byzantium, a continental country, and the ballistae on the ships have a longer range and greater power. More than a dozen huge warships returned fire, and the point of attack was the arrow towers on the shore, with whistling ballistas and chain hammers, whistling back and forth over the heads of both sides. The Landis sent several assault ships and lowered a hundred and ten small boats, but they were never able to break through to the sea.

Although the impact of the fleet has caused a lot of losses to the arrow towers on the shore, and even two arrow towers have been hit by the ballista and chain hammers of the navy in the melee, and the stone chips are flying, but the rebels seem to be very determined to resist, so they stubbornly guard the coastline and refuse to retreat.

Ships come and go, and assault boats are densely spread on the sea.

Standing on the bridge of the Freelander, looking at the sea of blood that had been slaughtered on the shore in front of him, Gislent's expression was hard and cold.

Paradox, it is indeed a very good defense system. Ghislent listened to the shouts and screams of the soldiers, and listened to the roar of the ballistas, but suddenly turned his head, glanced at several lieutenants behind him, and said lightly: "When we are at home, we always hear about the coastal defense system of Osgilia, and I have made countless deductions. Gentlemen, at present, this fact has already happened in the eyes of the eyes! The coastal defense of this city is indeed very tight, but I believe that Landis's navy is truly invincible! No matter how strong the shield is, it will never overwhelm the sharp spear and sharp sword! The herald! The war drums will not stop, and the military trumpet will not stop! I will use this strong attack to destroy this so-called most rigorous coastal defense system in a dignified manner! Even if it is not after the end of the war, I will let the Byzantines know that this coastal defense system that they regard us as an imaginary enemy is not worth mentioning at all! Gentlemen, the significance of this battle is not only in the present, but also in the future!"

"Keep up!"

The movement in the direction of the sea has completely awakened Osgilia at night.

On the streets near the harbor, the rebels are nervously gathering and mobilizing, some from the harbor area desperately running into the city, and some beginning to gather people towards the harbor area.

The streets were bustling with rebel ranks.

At night, especially in this cold winter, except for Hughes and Salvador's men and horses, who still insisted on attacking the palace and the Arc de Triomphe, the other rebels seemed to have lost their enterprising spirit. In the past few days, the robbery has been full, this kind of cold weather, everyone is more willing to roast the fire in the house of the rich people who have been occupied, drink wine, and hold the robbed girl's power

Let's put it this way, after entering the city, the level of chaos of the rebels was that even Salvatore and Hughes themselves were so angry that they vomited blood!

No one expected that the Landis would come so quickly and so resolutely! Many people even thought that after the imperial capital was broken, the Landis would give up their previous position, and the next thing would be nothing more than the end of the war, when to break through the palace, and then announce the official destruction of the Byzantine Empire, then they could sit at the table with the Landis and negotiate to end the war.

If the Byzantine Empire is still there, the Landis will naturally want to reap the benefits, but the city is broken, and the empire has been destroyed, so the Landis will naturally not come to join in the fun...... ，...

This is the case with all factions within the rebels, up and down. Even Hughes and Salvador, although they were worried about Lantis's movements, were helpless about this scene.

The two of them, El Salvador, were discredited because of what happened before. Hughes, on the other hand, was greatly injured in the bloody battle on the night when the Rhodrian cavalry stormed the city, and the leader-level figures of the two rebels were a little unable to control the situation, although there were many rebels, both of them could not command.

At the first moment of the sea, outside the palace, Hughes, who was speaking to the generals in the tent, suddenly rushed out with a wild change in his face, looked at the direction of the sea, and was stunned for a while.

"Command! Attack the whole army! Do whatever it takes! Storm the palace at once! Bastard! Bastard!! Let those guys get up for me!!"

In the direction of the Arc de Triomphe, Salvador naturally heard the movement on the sea, but unlike Hughes's reaction, the first moment the movement on the sea came, Salvador didn't seem to be too excited.

He just sat on his horse, looked in the direction of the sea, and sighed deeply. Salvador was already not young, but at this moment, it seemed that he was suddenly ten years old, he gritted his teeth vigorously, and whispered to himself: "Missed it...... To miss it is to miss it...... Alas, what a pity, what a good opportunity......"

He turned his head and looked in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Adric...... You've been waiting for this moment!"

The old man cheered up, and suddenly ordered in a loud voice: "All the army, turn around! The triumphal arch is gone! The whole army is marching towards the palace! We will join forces with Governor Hughes! Attack the palace with all our might! Hurry!! The Landis have already arrived! We must break the palace and destroy the Byzantines before they have even reached the shore! Only then can we earn a chance to survive!!"

Originally, the whole army had already assembled, and was preparing to gnaw off this bone of the Arc de Triomphe at the last moment of darkness to hit this part, and everyone knew that those guys at the Arc de Triomphe, no matter how tough they were, had finally reached the limit.

Perhaps, one more charge will be able to crush them.

El Salvador suddenly changed the order, and the rebel soldiers up and down could only obey the order, and the whole army turned around in formation, and the team suddenly moved, which was naturally not so fast, and it was always chaotic for a while.

El Salvador repeatedly urged orders, and the orders were transmitted to the army at all levels as quickly as possible.

The rear team of the Jin Army had already begun to move, but at this time, suddenly, in the direction of the triumphal arch behind him, there was an earth-shattering sound of fighting!

Salvador's face changed, and soon his generals came to report quickly.

"Your Excellency the Governor...... The defenders under the Arc de Triomphe suddenly gave up their camp and fought back! The team behind them was already fighting with them!

Salvador's face changed, and he sat on the horse, just trembling, and then sucked deeply. Gas.

"Okay! What an Adric!!Sure enough, it's ruthless! At this time, you want to bite me to the death, and don't let me help Hughes fight the palace!"

Salvador had a few thoughts in his heart in an instant, and then finally gritted his teeth and shouted: "Order the rear team to resist on the spot! The front army continues to advance! We ...... Go to the palace!!"

When the generals heard this, they all changed color and shouted: "My lord! Adric has exhausted his strength! Since they are out of the camp, let's turn back and strike a blow, but in an hour or two, we can kill them all! After several days of hard fighting, so many people died, and finally this is the opportunity to destroy the enemy!!

Salvador's face was fierce, and he suddenly shouted: "Fools!!A bunch of fools!Don't you understand!An hour or two!Where did I get an hour or two!!If you wait for the Landis to come ashore, even if you kill all of Adric's men, it will be in vain!!The palace! Only by breaking the palace at this moment can there be a glimmer of life! Order! The rear team will resist on the spot, and the whole army will go to the palace! Quick!!"

※※※

"Quick!"

Ruhl shouted loudly, and the more than 100 soldiers behind him all lined up and ran quickly after him.

On the street, Ruhl swaggered in the direction of the harbor with more than a hundred people, they were wearing rebel clothes and armor, and at this moment there were no less than dozens of rebels in the city, and they were in chaos, who could tell which one they belonged to?

The battle in the harbor area began, and the rebels were alarmed all the way, some gathered towards the harbor area, and some mobilized men and horses to withdraw. The streets were full of teams dressed in rebel armor, and the fat man ran all the way with a swagger, and no one stopped him!

Finally, when they ran to a block outside the harbor area, they finally encountered a checkpoint, and the rebels who were blocking the way were about to block it, and Ruhl ran in front, so he glared and shouted: "On the orders of Governor Hughes, rush to the aid of the harbor area!"

As soon as they heard this, the rebels who were blocking the way naturally got out of the way.

The huge harbor area, which used to be the gathering place of the empire's maritime trade, was now ruined, the huge bazaar of the past was already empty, the harbor wharf was in full swing, and the rebels were in chaos.

More than a hundred fat people rushed in, and no one gave this small group of people a second glance.

"Ten people left. The fat man gritted his teeth: "Go to the warehouse at the dock, set fire everywhere, create chaos, and make as much noise as possible! When encountering rebels, there is no need to fight, there is only one goal: set fire and create chaos! Let them mess up their own position!"

Immediately, a few men took the order, quickly picked people out, and scattered in all directions.

"The rest...... Come with me to the port docks!Let's get an arrow tower first!" The fat man crossed his knife in his hand, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Damn! The coastal defense system of this port, but we built it ourselves, just to deal with the fleet of the Landisians...... When you think about it, it's a fucking taste!"

※※※

More than half an hour has passed since the repeated battles.

The Lantis navy is still bleeding.

On the surface of the sea near the beach, it has already become a sea of blood, many Lantis assault boats were overturned and floated on the sea, and the corpses of Landis's soldiers who were killed by arrows were floating on the sea, washed by the waves, and some had already floated to the beach.

The arrow towers on both sides of the strait are still roaring, ballista chain hammers, desperately bombarding in the direction of the estuary, Landis's fleet has mobilized several assault ships, that kind of assault ships are specially built ships, the hull is covered with iron armor, it is a special ship branch used to attack the enemy ship at the tip or sea, and at this moment rushed into the sea, under the defense of the fortifications of the strict coastal defense, the Landis have three assault ships that have been directly sunk, and one has been broken mast, and it is impossible to advance or retreat, and it is on the sea surface of the estuary.

Gislent was still in command on the Freelander, watching his fleet bleed and suffer huge losses, but the famous admiral of the Lantis Navy did not change his face, just passed on one order after another, and the fleet moved frequently, and the two wings of the fleet continued to use ballistas to suppress the coastal defense arrow towers on the shore, and kept sending the assault ships to land again.

In this kind of landing operation, there is no room for shortcuts, and what is fought is to fill in human lives and the tenacity of each other's commanders!

"They can't stand it long. Gislente even had room to talk to his subordinates: "These rebels are not really navy, they are not familiar with this coastal defense, and they cannot make full use of these fortifications." Moreover, there is no unity within the rebels, and if we press them up and put pressure on them, they will collapse sooner or later! We will definitely be able to land before dawn!"

An adjutant general behind him sighed in a low voice: "My lord, the dead and wounded are all our Lantis soldiers, fighting for the Byzantines, and it is our people who die...... ，... In my heart, I still have some things to figure out. ”

Gislent smiled, not angry, looked at this subordinate, and said lightly: "If you don't understand, you don't need to think about this." These things -- you don't have to think about them. This whole situation is always in my heart and that of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Winning this battle is the greatest gain of the empire in hundreds of years!Lords, fight!" After a pause, Gislent suddenly said, "What about Your Highness?"

There was a humane around him: "After His Royal Highness got on the ship, he went into the cabin to rest, and he didn't seem to have any interest in coming to the bridge to watch the battle. ”

Gislent's heart moved, and he thought: This highness is really a Ming monarch, he does not abuse power in battle, does not compete with the lord, and knows the balance between advance and retreat, which is extremely rare. Conquering Osgilia, what a peerless achievement, but this young highness is not greedy for the limelight, deliberately retreated, let himself enjoy this great achievement, he is a powerful man in the navy, naturally inherit his kindness, in the future His Royal Highness will inherit the throne, he is naturally dedicated to serving to repay this kindness...... ，... Your Highness's cleverness is admirable!

Looking at the battle on the sea, Gislent suddenly felt happy in his heart!

"The luck of the three great powers, it has always been the mainland countries that have fought for power, and we Landis people are just foils. But now, the Odin people are barbaric and do not know civilization, even if the destructive power is enough, but they do not know how to operate and build. Byzantium has always been the largest empire of mankind, but now that the country is suffering from internal and external troubles, this national fortune can be regarded as coming to an end! Our Lantis, there are wise kings, and there are wise ministers and generals, and this national fortune is going to fall on us Lantis after all!" Just as Gis Lente was in a reverie, suddenly, he heard an exclamation from a general beside him.

"Look!!"

As soon as Gislent turned his head, someone shoved a monocular telescope into his hand, and Gislent looked around, and saw that above the coast, there was an arrow tower, and a raging fire broke out!

In the darkness, the huge arrow tower seemed to have turned into a huge pillar of fire, and the flames were soaring into the sky, and it looked so dazzling!

"What's going on?" said Gislent, surprised and delighted.

"I don't know...... ，... As he was fighting, the arrow tower suddenly burst into flames by itself, and it wasn't our ballista that hit it...... "Next, something even weirder was blamed."

On the coast, there was suddenly another arrow tower, and the original ballista was shooting at the sea, but suddenly it turned around and fired at its own arrow tower not far away! Three ballistas in a row directly smashed the top of an arrow tower next to it!

For a time, there was chaos on the beach of the harbor!

In the midst of the chaos, I heard the horns of the rebels coming from the docks!

When Gislent heard this, his face suddenly turned strange.

"Did you hear me clearly......? ，... It seems to go to ...... ，...”

※※※

"Blow!Blow hard for Lao Tzu!!"

The fat man's face was covered with blood, standing on the arrow tower with a knife horizontally, there was a chaotic fight under the steps, there were his elites guarding the stairs to the death, and the rebels below reacted and wanted to attack and retake the arrow tower, but they were all crushed under the stairs by his people.

The narrow staircase, the staircase is only so square inch, no matter how many people can't arrange it, in this small scene, Ruhr's subordinates are all elite in a hundred battles, one man is the pass, ten thousand people can't open it, and they protect the steps of the arrow tower to the death, and the hundreds of rebels below can't fight it.

Ruhl stood at the mouth of the steps, and when he was empty, he picked up two stones and threw them down the steps, and suddenly heard several muffled noises and screams.

"Keep blowing! Don't stop! Hahahaha!"

Beside him, a subordinate was holding the horn of the rebels who had been snatched from nowhere, and was blowing the trumpet vigorously......

That trumpet is the horn tune of the rebels, but it's just ...... This tone is clearly the military horn of the withdrawal of troops!

After fighting for an hour, seeing that although Lantis's navy was damaged a lot, it was still pressing up step by step, and those black-pressed fleets were lying across the sea, and the dense boats were put down, and I don't know how many ......

After such a long time, everyone in the rebels was panicked, they were originally in a hurry to respond to the battle, and they did not hold this coastal defense system for a long time, and there was really no cooperation between them.

At this moment, in the midst of the melee, I suddenly heard the sound of the withdrawal of my own army?!

At this moment, the rebels are really in chaos.

In some of the arrow towers, the defenders had long lost the heart to resist, and hurriedly got off the tower to run away after hearing the horn, while others were confused and didn't know what was going on.

For a while, the arrows of Haiphong were in the tower, but the roar of the ballista seemed to slow down. While the rebels were watching each other, the generals of the rebel armies in charge of coastal defense were angrily dispatching men to find out what was going on......

Several warehouses on the dock were originally abandoned places, and the materials inside had already been looted and transported by the rebels, and naturally no one was stationed in those abandoned warehouses. But when it was night, suddenly several warehouses suddenly burst into flames!

For a time, the wharf was full of flames, and there were rebels running like headless flies everywhere, the orders were unknown, the orders were not clear, the soldiers did not know the generals, the generals did not know the soldiers, and they were not under their subordinates, only to see people running around, some were busy fighting fires, some were busy searching and chasing the arsonists, some went to the rescue of the arrow tower, and some listened to the clarion call to retreat and withdrew from the front.

Countless people are mixed up like this...... ，...

At sea, Gislent put down the monoculars in his hand and suddenly smiled: "Ha! It seems that it must be the handiwork of a few old friends in the city! We can't waste this kindness! Give me the order, the assault ships will go up to me! Take this port, it's right in front of you!"
