Chapter 152: Bloody Battlefield

Throughout the day, the atmosphere in the main city was particularly tense, and the defenses were very tight, and General Huyan ordered his soldiers to closely observe the movements of the Capricorn army in front of them, and to report any movement.

Gartnu ordered his soldiers to lay in ambush everywhere and wait for an opportunity to attack.

But seeing that there was no movement in the direction of the main city, the city gate was closed, and Gartnu waited for a whole day, he couldn't hold his breath: "Huyan father and son are so cautious, and the city gate is closed in broad daylight, they must have discovered our actions and knew that we were lurking here, so they strengthened their defenses, closed the city gates, and prepared to wait for the attack." ”

Gartnu knew that if he continued to lurk, his soldiers would not be able to endure it, even if they could not move around, set up camp, or even bury pots to cook, then it was not a way to wait like this.

But General Huyan had already taken precautions, just waiting for Ghatnu to provoke a war.

Gartnu knew this, he understood General Huyan's thoughts, in fact, Huyan's father and son had already been prepared, just waiting for Gartnu to attack.

After a long time, Gartnu simply decided not to stop fighting, so he ordered everyone to bury the pot and cook a full meal, and when night fell, they launched an attack.

All the siege equipment in the army should be put to good use of what has been prepared long ago, and if the quantity is insufficient, it will be built in time.

Soon smoke rose from the camp in Gartnu, soldiers were scrambling to fill their empty bellies, and the flag of the Capricorn country was raised everywhere, and a scene of hustle and bust appeared on the previously silent hillside.

The lookout post, who was standing on the main city and observing, immediately reported the movements of the Gartnu camp to General Huyan.

General Huyan was overjoyed when he heard the news: "It seems that Gartnu can't hold his breath, and this time he shows his feet." But it seems that they are preparing to attack at night, and I have to be careful all the time, this is a difficult opponent to deal with. ”

So General Huyan ordered to go down, continue to strengthen the defense, and always be on the lookout for Gartnu's attack.

As night fell, calm began to return to Gartnu's camp, and the soldiers stood in formation, watching the main city from afar.

I saw that the banner of the Hujia army above the main city was waving in the wind, and on the position of Gatnu, the black military flag was also eye-catching, and the position was silent, only the big flag made a "whoosh" sound under the whistling of the mountain wind of hunting.

The soldiers of the Capricorn country were dressed in neat armor, wearing wolf skin hats, and their faces were covered with strange masks, holding all kinds of spears and knives and guns in their hands, and the queue in front of them held huge shields, standing at the forefront, and at first glance, the whole army was filled with a terrifying atmosphere.

Gartnu planned to let the soldiers attack first, the ladder for the siege had already been prepared, he wanted the first echelon to attack the city first, and the archers and siege warriors were arranged in the first echelon, and the first attack was to try the depth of the Hujia army, if it could not be attacked for a long time, he would let the evil spirit Kanon summon skeleton soldiers and Charizard to continue the attack in the middle of the night.

He didn't have much patience to wait, and as long as his soldiers couldn't beat him, he asked Canon to slaughter them again.

As a general, if Gartanu only relies on the strength of Canon to fight, it will inevitably be a bit unworthy of the name, so Gartanu usually lets his army take the lead first, and after having a record, if he can't attack for a long time, he will summon Canon to help.

So if someone attacks him and only relies on evil spirits to win, he would have a good idea.

As the night darkened, the main city was plunged into darkness, and torches were lit on the city.

Gartnu rode on his horse and walked at the front of the team, he waved the scimitar in his hand and pointed in the direction of the main city: "Brothers, charge me, fight into the main city, and fight for the honor of the Capricorn country!"

Then the black-pressed soldiers lined up in a square, shouting loudly, and approached the main city step by step.

Gartnu's squad beat the drums of war and blew the creepy horns. The sound of war drums shook the heavens and the earth, and instantly alarmed the soldiers in the main city, and the heralds immediately issued orders to the sentry posts everywhere to meet the battle, and the officers and soldiers quickly took their positions, ordering the soldiers to prepare crossbows and bows and arrows, and shoot the first soldiers to attack the city.

The soldiers of Gartnu quickly advanced to the bottom of the main city, and the first echelon quickly set up their bows and arrows to shoot a rain of arrows like locusts at the city.

The soldiers defending the main city were in the dark, only to feel a wave of arrows coming overwhelmingly, and they all picked up their shields to block their bodies.

Many of the soldiers who had not had time to dodge were shot in the body by the oncoming rain of arrows and fell to the ground*.

Then General Huyan stood on the tower and ordered the soldiers to launch a counterattack, ordering the crossbow and trebuchet to be fired together.

In an instant, huge stones and crossbow arrows rained down on the enemy's phalanx like a storm.

The large boulder exploded with a "boom" of the trebuchet, and smashed into the team of the Capricorn country with a sound of wind. Suddenly, in the densely populated area of the enemy, many of the Gartnu soldiers could not dodge and were smashed by large rocks and their limbs were shattered.

The soldiers who were shot by the crossbow machine were almost pierced through the chest by long crossbow arrows.

In less than half an hour, the phalanx of Gartnu was covered with blood, and countless casualties were inflicted.

Gartnu was so angry that when he saw that the first echelon had suffered a great loss, he howled loudly: "Strengthen the attack of the archers, and continue to shoot at the soldiers at the head of the city!" The siege warriors will immediately take the ladder and attack the main city for me no matter what!"

Then the echelons approached the city wall under the cover of the shieldmen, and set up the ladders, and rows of bows and arrows continued to shoot more fierce arrows.

The defenders at the head of the city could barely withstand the overwhelming rain of arrows, and they all hid in their bunkers to avoid the incoming arrows.

At this time, the besieging soldiers, under the cover of archers, took the opportunity to climb to the top of the city.

The officers and soldiers of the Hujia army were anxious, and immediately ordered the soldiers to resist desperately, and the officers and soldiers defending the city brandished knives and guns to cut down the soldiers who had just climbed up to the top of the city one by one, and many soldiers who had just revealed their wolfskin hats had no time to reach out and climb the battlements, and were cut off by the soldiers guarding behind the battlements.

The corpse, which had lost its head, immediately lost control, fell headlong into the ladder, and smashed to the ground with a "bang", raising a cloud of dust.

The moment the head was cut off, the blood gushing out of it stained the battlements red, and it felt slippery, wet and sticky.

In less than an hour, the siege of Gatnu's army failed, and countless officers and soldiers were killed and wounded.

The soldiers of the first echelon were almost completely lost, and a large number of ladders were cut or burned by the officers and soldiers defending the city.

Seeing that the situation was not good, General Gartnut hurriedly sounded the horn to withdraw his troops.

The sound of the horn "woo-woo" sounded in the dark night, and some of the hairs stood on end, and the soldiers of the Capricorn country gave up the attack and retreated to their camps.
