The French army completely lost its combat advantage.
They were able to gain an advantage by relying on the Indian troops as cannon fodder, while the French carried out sneak attacks from behind.
But this method is now completely useless against the British army, and their troops can no longer fight like this with the French army.
The French army suffered heavy casualties. Under such circumstances, in order to maintain their strength, the French generals had to adjust their command.
The remaining Indian troops were also recalled, and the direct consequence of this was that the French troops were unable to stop the British troops from attacking.
This gave the British troops the opportunity to attack the city directly.
Although the artillery had been destroyed by the French troops, General Astimo did not find it difficult to breach the city wall.
He never thought that the walls of Fort Carillon were strong enough that they could be breached in a short time just by relying on those artillery pieces.
"Assemble the equipment for ascending the city, and take cover with the crossbowmen!"
Britain's siege equipment may have been influenced by the Dragon Flame Army. They also used wood to build ladders like city walls to lead soldiers to attack the city.
There are also more secret shuttles, which send out a hook with a rope to hook onto the enemy's wall, and the soldiers climb up along the rope.
Long Yan also has similar siege equipment.
Although this kind of siege equipment is concealed, once it is discovered by the enemy, it is not as difficult to destroy as a ladder, and it will be easily destroyed by enemy soldiers.
And the soldiers who are climbing the shuttle will definitely fall to the ground and die.
While General Astiman ordered the troops to attack from the front, he also had troops lurking on the left and right flanks.
Siege is a skill that is good, but explosive troops are a no-brainer.
Doing so would cause great losses. General Astiman ordered the soldiers to dig a pit and pile the unexploded explosives under the wall of Carillon Castle.
There was a boom.
Fort Carillon trembled tremendously, and the French general felt something was wrong and hurriedly asked: "What happened? There should be no artillery shells in Britain that can attack us now."
"Report to the general, the wall on the west has collapsed, and the British troops are attacking from there!"
The French general was stunned, frowned and shouted: "Send troops quickly to resist!"
The soldier did not move, looked at the French general and said: "There are no soldiers who can be mobilized now."
"Then mobilize my guards!"
"The British troops must be intercepted outside the city wall."
"General, the guard is here to protect your safety. What will happen to your safety if they are transferred?"
The French general grabbed him by the collar and stared at him intently.
The soldier had never looked at France's future face so closely. He saw the ferocious expression gradually rising on the French general's face, and he said in a deep voice: "If the British soldiers rush in, what do I need these guards for?"
The French general shook him off, glanced at the staff in his combat command room, and said in a deep voice: "Fort Carillon is an important path that can cut off the communication between the two British armies. We must not let the British army He takes it."
"Guards, we must guard the entrance of the cave!"
The French general's guard sets off.
As the highest-ranking man at Fort Carillon, his guard was even equipped with muskets.
When the guards arrived at the entrance of the cave, the British soldiers were trying to expand the entrance. They wanted more British soldiers to flow in.
The guards opened fire quickly, and the French muskets could fire three times a minute at the fastest during the battle.
There was a gap of twenty seconds. They lined up and fired intensively to intercept these British troops.
But without the cover of infantry and shield soldiers, this twenty-second gap would be fatal to them.
The British soldiers withstood the damage of the muskets and forced their way through the guards' defense.
Almost at the same time, irreversible advantages also appeared in other battles on the battlefield.
The ladder was close to the city wall of Fort Carillon. The British soldiers quickly climbed onto the city. They were already tired. The French army with a small number of soldiers had no idea of continuing to fight in the face of the British troops who had already climbed onto the city.
Once the British troops landed on the city, it would be difficult for them to continue to resist. Their advantage was clearly based on the strength of Fort Carillon.
But now the strong Fort Carillon could no longer help them resist the British troops who continued to attack.
General Astimo observed through the telescope that their British troops had appeared on the walls of Fort Carillon, and the corners of his mouth rose with a smile.
With his legs clamped on the horse's back, the horse carried Astimo forward. He smiled lightly and said, "Let's go and see who the French general at Fort Carillon is."
His deputy followed.
By the time General Astimo arrived, the battle was almost over.
The French troops on the city wall have been defeated, and now what's left are the French troops still resisting inside Fort Carillon.
But the walls of Fort Carillon had been breached, and an endless stream of British soldiers rushed in.
The defeat of the French army was only a matter of time, and they were already pushed to the end of their rope.
General Astimo ignored the dead and alive British soldiers on the ground and walked faster and faster.
The French generals seemed to be more important than these wounded soldiers.
Taking three steps and then two, Astimo arrived outside a house and saw the remaining French soldiers standing guard outside the house.
It was not difficult for Astimo to guess that the identity of the person inside might be the French general.
Astimo said indifferently: "Now I will give you a chance. If you choose to surrender, I will not kill you."
The French soldiers looked at General Astimo and were silent for several seconds.
Finally they heard the sound of someone throwing the weapons in their hands to the ground. They could no longer bear the feeling of being in the face of death.
A tight morale dissipated, and it was difficult to gather it together again.
"We surrender...surrender!"
One of the French soldiers shouted in despair.
Astimo glanced at him and nodded: "Yes, not bad, a wise choice."
The British soldiers rushed forward and took control of the surrendered French troops.
At this time, General Astiman entered the house they were guarding.
He saw a man lying in the house with a sword stuck in his body, and he saw that he was wearing the clothes of a French general.
General Astiman glanced indifferently, turned and left.
His deputy looked at the dead French general, chuckled, and mocked: "Is this the bloody nature of the French army? Will you commit suicide when you know you are defeated?"
General Astiman did not respond to his deputy's comment. He turned and left, coming to the French soldier who was the first to drop his weapon and announce his surrender.
The French soldier looked up at General Astiman and quickly lowered his head.
General Astiman sneered, fixed his eyes firmly on the soldier's face, and said lightly: "General French, there is no need to do such a thing to survive."
The soldier who was stared at by General Astiman stiffened and raised his head to look into General Astiman's eyes.
