It's a pity that the quality of these barely managed cavalry is really poor, and Ye Tianlong found that there were even many light cavalry riding traveling horses and pack horses.

With a wave of his hand, more than eighty archers immediately stepped forward and fired arrows at the rushing cavalry, and thousands of musketeers stepped forward in groups to fire at the charging cavalry.

Under the baptism of arrows and bullets, the more than 100 cavalry had no chance to approach the artillery position, and the whole army was wiped out just halfway through.

Seeing that their cavalry had been completely wiped out so quickly, the defenders in the city hurriedly closed the city gates again, obviously preparing to use the remaining forces to defend the city.

However, as the three heavy cannons on Ye Tianlong's side were set up and began to shoot at the city wall, the desire of these enemy troops to defend the city became a luxury.

The destructive power of 100 mm heavy artillery is far from that of those small-caliber guns, and every shell that hits the city wall will cause the seemingly thick earthen wall to tremble violently, and make the enemy soldiers who hold on to the city wall feel panicked.

In the end, after one of the sections of the city wall was hit twice in a row, a small section of the city wall was directly collapsed, and the defenders on this section of the city wall were caught off guard, and basically all fell from above, killing and injuring seven or eight people.

Although the casualties were not large, but the city wall was suddenly blown down for a short time, which greatly shook the morale of the enemy troops in the city, after all, the number of enemy troops is obviously more than their own, and the equipment is more sophisticated, if there is a city wall, they may be able to hold on for a few days, but now the city wall was easily blown up by the enemy for a short time, can they not panic!

However, the sound of cannons from outside the city did not stop for a moment, and there were still cannonballs constantly bombarding the city wall, some of which were too high, and would cross the city wall and fall into the city, smashing some houses directly, causing the civilians in the city to let out a frightened scream.

There are also some cannonballs that will fall right on the city wall, bouncing and smashing the soldiers defending the city along the road to broken bones and tendons, screaming again and again.

After more than half an hour of bombardment, the gates of Talbolia had been smashed through, and several sections of the city walls had also been blown down, turning the walls into a leaky sieve.

However, the commander of the defenders in the city still didn't want to just abandon the wall, even if it was already smashed.

Ye Tianlong, on the other hand, was not ready to continue wasting time, and directly ordered a general attack.

Soon a dozen artillery carriages were slowly approaching the town of Talbolia, followed by a large number of archers, musketeers, and infantry.

Seeing that the enemy army was approaching, the defenders who remained on the city wall also entered a state of combat readiness, and after the enemy artillery carriages entered the ballista range, they began to shoot at the large bed crossbows on the city wall.

It's a pity that the large crossbow bolts fired by these bed crossbows can't penetrate the armor of Ye Tianlong's gun carriage at all, after all, Ye Tianlong's gun carriage has solid armor made of stainless steel throughout, and the average armor thickness has reached fifty millimeters.

Soon, Ye Tianlong's artillery carriage also began to launch a counterattack, and one after another shells shot out from the muzzles of those small-caliber guns and bombarded those large bed crossbows on the city wall.

Although the accuracy of these artillery guns is actually not very good, but because the enemy's large bed crossbows are not protected by solid armor, once hit, it is often the end of the crossbow, so soon most of the bed crossbows on the city wall were destroyed, and the remaining soldiers did not dare to go up to control them, after all, the scene of the body being smashed by the cannonball is really terrifying!

And as the distance narrowed, and when they approached a distance of about one hundred and fifty meters, the archers and musketeers who had been following the artillery carriage slowly rushed out, and poured their heads up at the city wall and poured out a steady stream of arrows and bullets.

Because the crossbowmen in Talbolia were basically only equipped with rudimentary leather armor and cloth armor, they did not dare to shoot at the enemy heavy archers and heavy musketeers, and they all hid behind the city walls, hiding from the arrows and bullets fired by the enemy.

And the archers on Ye Tianlong's side, regardless of whether they wasted bullets and arrows, kept shooting at the city wall not far away, suppressing the enemy crossbowmen to the death, so that they did not dare to show their heads.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Viscount Thor led more than 200 hoplites under his command to quickly rush under the city wall, and then took out the hook claw that Ye Tianlong gave them in advance, threw it upward, hooked the city wall with the hook claw, and then began to quickly climb towards the city wall, and some soldiers rushed directly into the city along the gap that was smashed by the cannonballs.

The hoplites who rushed into the city directly along the gap in the wall that had been smashed by the cannonballs saw a lot of enemy defenders hiding behind the wall, so they were not polite, and immediately smashed the grenades that had been prepared at these defenders.

In the face of these smashed grenades, although most of the soldiers of the Swadia Kingdom did not know what this thing was, they also knew that it should be some kind of enemy weapon, so they fled in all directions, trying to avoid these smashed enemy weapons.

However, the defenders apparently underestimated the lethality of these enemy weapons, thinking that as long as they were not directly hit by these things, they were overwhelmed by the flames of the explosion.

And those soldiers under the command of Viscount Thor, who had been prepared for this for a long time, waited for the grenades to explode, and then rushed towards those enemy troops with all kinds of melee weapons that had been changed in advance.

Because of the terrible explosion just now, the enemy defenders were in a state of confusion in the face of the enemy heavy infantry who were rushing towards them, and they were quickly killed, and they were quickly scattered, and most of the soldiers were directly beheaded or captured, and only a small half fled into the city in panic.

Looking at the enemy rout who fled into the city, Viscount Thor did not let his soldiers continue to pursue, after all, this street battle is more dangerous than other types of battles, Ye Tianlong had told him before, to avoid such battles as much as possible, so as not to have too many casualties.

Soon, Ye Tianlong also led his troops to catch up, and after he asked a subordinate with a louder voice to persuade the remaining defenders in the city to surrender, he waited for the response of the defenders in the city, if the other party could surrender directly, then he naturally didn't bother to continue to kill.

However, the noble lord in this city is obviously a hard bone, and he simply ignored Ye Tianlong's persuasion.

Ye Tianlong waited for ten minutes, and after finding that the other party had not responded, he also understood that this battle was still inevitable, so he asked one of the guards beside him to give a flag to the combat airship in the air, signaling that it could attack.

After receiving Ye Tianlong's order, Zhou Jiale immediately commanded the battle airship to slowly fly to the sky above Talbolia Town, quickly found the location of the city lord's mansion where the enemy army gathered the most, and dropped bombs from the air.

Those enemy soldiers obviously did not expect that the enemy army could still attack from the air, looking at the bombs falling from the sky, those enemy soldiers screamed in panic one by one, and rushed towards the surrounding houses, trying to hide in the houses to avoid the bombardment.

However, these bombs are no larger than those grenades that need to be thrown by the soldier's hands, because they are not thrown by the soldier at all, but directly from the combat airship.

After hitting the ground, these bombs immediately produced a violent explosion, and the surrounding houses were like fragile building blocks in front of the shock wave generated by the explosion, and they were blown up one after another, and the enemy soldiers hiding in the houses were naturally shocked by the shock wave and bled to death, or they were simply buried alive by the collapsed houses.

After just a round of aerial bombardment, a white flag was raised on the roof of the ruined City Lord's Mansion.

Obviously, in the face of this cross-era air attack, the noble lord of Talbolia Town could not withstand it, knowing that continuing to resist would also let the soldiers die in vain, and he could also be killed in the chaos, so he decisively chose to follow his heart and let his guards hang the white flag and surrender.

Ye Tianlong saw that the other party hung up the white flag, so he immediately asked Zhou Jiale to stop the aerial bombardment, and then asked people to shout again, so that all the remaining enemy soldiers in the city put down their weapons, raised their hands and came out of the city to surrender.

This time, as soon as Ye Tianlong finished shouting, more than a dozen enemy soldiers walked out of the city with an embarrassed face, and then dropped the weapons in their hands, and obediently raised their hands and surrendered.

Ye Tianlong saw that the overall situation had been decided, so he discussed with Viscount Sol which town should be attacked next.

On the map, the closest to the town of Talbolia are the town of Chaide and Fort Kerridan, and this town and a castle are also very close to Natosdel and Fort Dekios, and if you support each other, it will only take at most half a day for reinforcements to kill.

So Ye Tianlong was going to look for other targets, but after this extremely easy siege battle just now, Viscount Thor felt that he could quickly take a town in a few hours with firearms, so even if Fort Kerrydan and Chaide Town were very close, they could give it a try.

In the end, Viscount Thor even offered to lead more than 500 soldiers under his command to fight first, and if he couldn't fight, he would immediately retreat, and he would definitely not do it.

Ye Tianlong saw that Viscount Sol had already made up his mind, and he couldn't persuade him to change his mind, so he could only agree to the other party's suggestion, but he also let Zhou Jiale control the large combat airship to attack with Viscount Sol, providing him with reconnaissance and air cover, so as to avoid being ambushed by the enemy army again as last time.
