The alliance of the great nobles of the Sylrod Kingdom who came to besiege the town of Odasan was not as elite as the beastly heavy cavalry of the Svadia Kingdom, but it was numerous, and there were tens of thousands of regular soldiers alone. Coupled with the people who were responsible for transporting the supplies in the later stage, the total number of people was about thirty or forty thousand, so many people were almost boundless at a glance, and soon the entire town of Odasang was surrounded, and then those people began to go to the nearby woods to cut down trees for the manufacture of various siege equipment.

Because of the huge disparity in troops, Luo Chenguang did not have the slightest idea of going out of the city to fight, but seized this last time, so that the young people in the city could continue to strengthen the city defense, and at the same time, those recruits also seized this last time to train.

With the careful teaching of masters such as Lin Chong, Sun An, Li Rufeng, and Shi Xiu, the progress of these recruits is still very fast, at least some of the regular moves during the fight have been almost practiced.

However, there are only more than 2,000 soldiers on his side, and he still has to avoid white-knuckle combat as much as possible in battle, and use all kinds of long-range weapons to solve the enemy when he can solve it with long-range weapons.

After a day of preparation, the rebels of the Sirond Kingdom built more than a dozen siege towers and a large number of simple wooden ladders, battering rams and other siege equipment, and then launched an attack on the town of Odasan from four directions at the same time.

Obviously, those rebels also knew very well that Ye Tianlong's forces were limited, and the maximum number of veterans who could be assigned to this Odasang town was only a few hundred at most, so they deliberately launched an attack on the city wall in four directions at the same time, so that the opponent's already small forces could be spread out as much as possible, so that they could rely on the superiority of their forces to defeat the other party.

Just as these rebel high-ranking people guessed, there are only more than 500 veterans in the town of Oudasan, and 1,500 are recruits who have not only not experienced any actual combat baptism, but they have not even been able to complete all the training because of the lack of time!

Therefore, Luo Chenguang could only adopt the strategy of bringing the old with the new, arranging a hundred veterans and three hundred recruits on each wall to be responsible for the defense, while he led the last hundred veterans and six hundred recruits as a reserve, and immediately rushed to reinforcements when there was danger.

And those rebels relied on their large numbers, and each wall arranged more than 2,000 civilians and thousands of regular soldiers to attack.

Such a huge gap in strength made those recruits very nervous, and some of the less courageous legs couldn't help but tremble.

"Little guy, don't be nervous, they can't attack it!" Li Rufeng stepped forward and patted a soldier who was sweating profusely on the shoulder and comforted him, and then gave the order to launch those rockets.

These rockets may not be accurate enough, but because the charge is large enough, they are very powerful, and now that the enemy army has dispatched so many men and horses at once, it is just the time for these rockets to be powerful.

With a burst of roars, the rockets took off from the city walls with dazzling tail flames.

After crossing a distance of thousands of meters, these rockets fell to the enemy troops below one by one, and in the process of flying, the flight trajectory of these rockets was crooked, so that the enemy did not know where to hide, and when it began to fall, it was too late, which is also a benefit of its poor accuracy, after all, even the person who fired these rockets did not know where these things would end up, let alone the enemy.

Thundered! After a series of violent explosions, the first batch of attacking enemy troops were suddenly blown up and hung up thousands of men and horses on the spot, and many siege equipment were also blown up, and those people were even more frightened in the thunderous explosion sound in all directions, making the whole formation begin to be chaotic.

And those rebel high-ranking obviously didn't want the first attack to end in such a hurry, they immediately sent additional troops, and at the same time sent a team of overseers to quickly kill those people who were scurrying around, and stabilized the formation.

"Keep attacking!"

Amid the shouts of the officers, the reorganized siege force continued to advance towards the town of Odasan, and this time the nobles even let the artillery men risk pushing dozens of catapults forward, ready to fire stone bullets as their soldiers approached the walls.

Luo Chenguang naturally would not let the enemy's plan succeed, after all, the earthen walls of this Odasang town were indeed not very strong, and they could not withstand the bombardment of those catapults.

As soon as the catapults came into range of the city's artillery, the muzzles of the cannons began to fire at the catapults.

With the use of high-explosive shells, the artillery became more lethal to these catapults, which were mostly made of wood, and even if the shells did not hit the catapults directly, the flames from the explosion would quickly burn them down.

After a few rounds of shelling, most of the rebels' catapults were blown up by artillery, but the enemy siege force was urging the overseers to speed up their march during this time, and some of the enemy soldiers who were only carrying rudimentary wooden ladders had already rushed to a distance of only about 150 meters from the city wall.

At this distance, it was already within the effective range of the flintlock rifle, so the old and new soldiers on the city wall raised their rifles one after another under the orders of the officers, and after completing the aiming, they pulled the trigger in unison.

After a series of gunshots like fried beans, many of the enemy soldiers who were rushing towards the city wall immediately burst into clouds of blood in response, and then they all fell down screaming.

Some enemy soldiers also tried to use their shields to block bullets, but the shields in their hands were easily pierced by the bullets fired from those large-caliber flintlock rifles, and had no defensive effect at all.

Seeing that those seemingly vicious enemies were so easily defeated by the rifles in their hands, the recruits couldn't help but feel a lot calmer, and then under the guidance and drive of the veterans, they finished loading the rifles according to the usual training and fired at the enemy troops outside the city again.

Soon, the fastest enemy troops were basically wiped out, followed by a large number of enemy soldiers pushing siege towers and battering rams, which were very cunning to hide behind those battering towers and battering rams, which could prevent them from being fired by rifles.

After all, those siege towers and battering rams are made of extremely strong and thick hardwood, and the surface is often covered with cowhide, and finally smeared with a layer of wet mud for fire prevention, which makes these siege machines have a lot of defense, and bullets cannot penetrate them when they hit them.

It was the artillery that could really inflict effective damage on these siege engines, so the artillery on the city was replaced with solid shells with more penetrating ability, and began to bombard these turtle shells of the enemy.

After a bang, a siege tower was hit by three shells in a row, directly broken from the waist, its upper part fell down heavily, some of the enemy soldiers who were originally hiding in the siege tower, ready to attack the city wall as soon as the siege tower was on the city wall, they suddenly fell into bad luck, either fell to death or were stoned to death by the upper part of the siege tower that fell, and many soldiers and people hiding behind it were also pierced with blood by a large number of wood chips splashed out, and then did not wait for them to catch their breath, The defenders of Chengtou Mountain immediately turned their guns and pulled the trigger on them, who had no more shields.

As the bullets came one after another, these guys were shot down in pieces, and the blood gradually stained the ground red, and even converged into blood-red streams, which continued to flow and converge towards those low-lying places.

The enemy soldiers who followed followed stepped on the blood-soaked slippery ground, and before they officially engaged in battle, they suffered a huge psychological blow, after all, if there was no accident, they would soon follow in the footsteps of those comrades, and become a miserable corpse.

"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! Suppress enemy fire! ”

Amid the eager shouts of the officers, some of the archers mixed with the siege troops opened their bows and arrows in unison, and shot waves of arrows at the city wall not far ahead.

However, Luo Chenguang was also prepared for this, seeing that the enemy archers began to release arrows, he immediately asked the soldiers on the city wall to put down the baffle that had been prepared long ago, this baffle is made of extremely thick wooden boards, usually folded and hung above the city wall like an eaves, which can shelter the soldiers from the wind and rain, and now facing the rain of arrows shot by the enemy, these baffles immediately completely protected the soldiers on the city wall after they were put down, and those arrows could not penetrate such a thick plank at all. All of them could only be stuck in the baffles, and when the battle was over, the defenders could even recover a lot of usable arrows from them.

The defenders on the city wall will not be blocked by these barriers and cannot fire, because these barriers have long been reserved for small shooting holes, through which the defenders can continue to shoot at the enemy soldiers outside the city.

In this situation, the enemy troops outside the city were constantly being shot and killed, while the defenders on the city walls did not suffer a single casualty.

This situation made the recruits who participated in the battle for the first time completely relieved, and some of the more motivated guys even accelerated the speed of reloading, wanting to shoot more enemy soldiers in order to improve their rank, get better pay and more generous pay.

In the end, the first wave of enemy forces had not even been able to actually touch the walls of Odasan, and they were forced to retreat because of their heavy losses.

In just over half an hour of fighting, the enemy suffered at least 5,000 casualties, and with such a huge loss, even this rebel army with a large number of troops would probably not be able to withstand a few times before it collapsed.

Those high-ranking rebels are obviously not fools, and they also know this truth, so after the complete failure of this first wave of attacks, they also gathered in the Chinese military tent, discussing what kind of play should be used next, anyway, the original frontal attack method is absolutely unusable, in the face of such fierce firepower of the enemy, the frontal attack cannot be attacked at all!

Finally, after several hours of heated discussion and arguing, the rebel leaders decided to use the tactics of cave attack, if they could dig the tunnels directly into the interior of Odasan, then they could directly engage the enemy in a face-to-face white-knuckle battle, and the enemy's powerful artillery would not even dare to use it for fear of accidentally injuring their own soldiers, so that the situation would be greatly advantageous to their side.

Knowing that the infantry of the Nord Kingdom is undoubtedly the first in white-knuckle combat, these rebel high-ranking people do not believe that the enemy's recruits can outperform their own well-trained and well-equipped Nord royal guards in white-knuckle combat ability.
