"Hurry, the oil is ready, carry it up to the city wall quickly!"
"Get rid of the fallen rocks at the city gate. They will be smashed down for me later!"
"Don't rush to shoot your arrows, wait until they climb up the ladder and shoot them again!"
"Fire the arrows over there with fuel for me and set Raya's siege engines and siege tower on fire!"
Tamubao did not give up its struggle. The sergeants walked back and forth on the city wall to direct the soldiers to work.
Soldiers are timid and avoid fighting in their hearts, but in the face of command and enemy attacks, they can only do so.
However, a flaming stone bullet broke through the air and came towards the city wall.
The burning stone bullets drew a glaring arc in the sky.
The stone bullet passed through the castle's guard tower accurately, breaking away from the constraints of gravity and flying in the air, burning flames lingering and lighting up the entire interior of the castle.
The stone bullets hit the buildings in the castle, bursting out with bright sparks and instantly igniting everything.
Frightened screams and shouts resounded in the castle, causing chaos. The flames spread, swallowing up all combustible objects, and trapping the soldiers of Tamubao in the sea of fire.
Even when he was about to lift the cooking oil onto the city wall, a stone bullet knocked it over, and the inside of the city wall suddenly burned.
The destructive power of the flaming stone bullets gradually destroyed the castle's defense system, leaving the soldiers in despair in fear and confusion.
However, there was not just one burning stone bullet, but one flying in one after another. Endless flames enveloped the castle, like a scene from hell.
The sergeant was dodging stone bullets on the city wall. Looking at the scene behind him, he gritted his teeth and stood up to shout for command.
"Someone come and put out the fire! Use the prepared soil to put out the fire. Hurry! They are coming!"
"Don't panic, everyone!"
"Tamubao must win!"
As soon as the sergeant finished speaking, an arrow suddenly penetrated his head, inserted directly from the back of his head to his nose.
He looked at the arrows in front of him like a cock, feeling no pain, just a moment of dizziness, and then he lay down on the city wall and died.
The soldiers next to him were trembling with fear.
Xu Siling was riding a horse in the distance, and the crossbow he held was slowly lowered.
When I first saw that soldier, he was different from the others. How could he be allowed to struggle so hard to command?
After shooting a non-commissioned officer to death, Xu Siling rode around and looked around, looking for other conspicuous objects on the city wall to shoot.
Laya soldiers carried heavy ladders on their backs and rushed to the city first, sweat dripping on the ground.
They did not rush to take the ladder to attack the city, but waited for the siege tower in the distance to slowly push over. The ladder to the city was only used in conjunction with the siege tower to disperse the defensive power of the soldiers in the tower. The siege tower was the main force.
Otherwise, if the soldiers climb up the ladder, they will not be able to stand firmly, and there will be no defensive means during the climb. They can only be shot down by the Tamubao soldiers.
Especially when climbing the city wall, there is no room for movement and it is difficult to avoid the defense of the city wall soldiers. Climbing the city with life is something Xu Siling does not want to see.
The Raya soldiers held up their swords and shields under the city to block the enemy's crossbow arrows. Some of the arrows hit the soldiers' bodies through the gaps in their swords and shields, causing them to fall to the ground in pain.
Seeing this, the other soldiers did not dare to save him. If they wanted to save him, they would even become a target.
The siege tower was finally pushed up slowly,
The fearless eyes of the Raya soldier revealed determination and courage, and he finally began to set up the ladder, holding on to the handrails, stabilizing his body, and ascending one step after another.
"Charge forward! Raya will win!"
The siege vehicles advanced, stone bullets and rockets fired at the city wall, weakening the defense line of the Tamubao soldiers.
The soldiers struggled to push the siege engines, and the ladders stretched toward the city wall like a giant's outstretched arm.
Flames and smoke filled the battlefield, and the battlefield was in chaos.
Arrows were rustling on the wall of Tamubao. The Raya soldiers rushed towards the city wall with the whistling sound of bows and arrows. There was not much arrow rain, but many soldiers were hit by arrows and fell on the battlefield.
The Raya soldiers who were the first to climb up the city wall fought with the Tamubao soldiers.
It is better to say that it is a battle, but it is better to say that it is the last struggle of the Tamubao soldiers. The Tamubao soldiers are densely lined up on the city wall. They hold up their spears and swords and are ready to suppress any Raya soldiers who rush up, but they all have a look in their eyes. Fear and fear.
The flaming stone bullets on their heads were still flying into the city wall, and the painful screams behind them stimulated their brains.
Gadri was the first to appear, holding a sword and shield. He looked at the dense formation of Tamubao soldiers holding spears and swords, and he was not afraid to laugh back.
He was originally a citizen of Raya Town. He was infected with the Black Death in Raya Town before, and it was Miss Raya who saved him with her precious decoction.
The foreigners from Raya Town are grateful to Miss Raya, and the locals in Raya Town are as grateful to Miss Raya as the foreigners.
When Miss Raya announced the call for soldiers from the town, Gadri, who had recovered from the Black Death, was the first to sign up with weapons and equipment.
For no reason, Miss Raya saved him, especially because Miss Raya had been inspired by God, and Miss Raya was a saint.
This is all just!
"Miss Raya has an order not to kill anyone who surrenders!"
Gadri's eyes were wild. He stood on the city wall, holding up his sword and shield, pointing his sword at the soldiers.
"Raya is just! Raya will win! If you don't surrender, you will die!"
Gadri was not afraid of the other Raya soldiers who came to the city and rushed towards the soldiers arrayed in Tamubao.
Swords intertwined, swords flashed and shadows danced. Soldiers from both sides fought flesh and blood regardless of sacrifice. The endless battle was cruel and bloody.
In this kind of battlefield, long weapons such as spears are a great advantage.
Unfortunately, the advantage of the spear was not fully utilized, and it was entangled and pulled by Gadri and other Raya soldiers.
at the same time.
The siege tower is towering. In front of the city wall, the Raya soldiers work together to push the huge siege tower like a moving fortress.
Amid the shouts, the siege tower moved slowly. The Raya soldiers clung to the handrails and feet on the tower, struggling to stabilize their bodies.
They faced the defensive arrows on the city wall without fear and pushed forward with a firm belief in victory.
The soldiers of Tamubao on the city wall raised their crossbows vigilantly and fired a dense rain of arrows.
Arrows roared, but the soldiers on the siege tower relied on the protection of their armor and moved forward resolutely.
The scattered rockets hitting the siege tower were not enough to ignite the siege tower, so they were not worth mentioning.
The siege tower gradually approached the city wall, and the Raya soldiers were ready to go, their swords flashing, ready to mount the city wall to fight.
Finally, the siege tower connected with the city wall, the siege tower fell off the table, and the eyes of the Raya soldiers and the Tamubao soldiers met.
Confidence will lead to victory and courage, fear will lead to cowardice.
"Raya justice! If you don't surrender, you will die!"
Enri was like a madman. She raised her sword and shield and stood at the front of the siege tower. She shouted angrily and rushed out of the tower with the Raya soldiers. They jumped into the city wall and started a fierce fight with cold weapons.
The Laya soldiers on the ladder had already made it difficult for Tamubao to resist. This time, a large number of Raya soldiers poured into the city wall from the siege tower, immediately putting the defense line of Tamubao soldiers in danger.
In the midst of the sword and fire, Enri fought bravely to kill the enemy. Her unparalleled courage and combat effectiveness further inspired the morale of Raya's soldiers.
The Raya soldiers who jumped in from the siege tower started a fierce confrontation with the enemies on the city wall, with high morale and without flinching at all.
Gadri was unfortunately injured during the siege. His thigh was stabbed by a spear and he was unable to retreat.
Just when the Tamubao soldiers were about to step forward to finish the attack, there was a sudden burst of footsteps and a roar. The Tamubao soldiers were hit by someone holding a shield and flew out.
Gadri raised his eyes to look at the person who saved him, and when he saw it was Enri, he couldn't help but force a smile.
"Enri."
"Protect the ladder so that other brothers can easily get to the city!"
"yes!"
Enri looked at the other soldiers from Tamubao who were surrounding her. She raised her sword and shield and laughed wildly: "Pig head of Tamubao! Come forward!"
There is only one female soldier in Raya Town, and that is Miss Raya's guard, Enri.
Tamubao and Raya Town are very close to each other, and they are well-informed about each other.
Enri's bravery and superb sword skills are naturally known to the soldiers of Tamu Castle.
Facing Enri's provocation, the surrounding soldiers suddenly stopped in fear.
Henry also climbed up the city wall. He was not crazy like Enri looking for someone to kill. He was commanding from the city wall.
"Guard the ladder and siege tower!"
"Don't rush to attack the city gate, set up your formation!"
The sound of metal clashing between swords and spears echoed on the city wall. The Tamubao soldiers rushed forward as hard as they could, trying to cut back the Raya soldiers on the siege tower and ladder.
However, the Raya soldiers fearlessly broke into the enemy lines and cut down the enemy's resistance.
The soldiers of Tamubao fought hard to block it and formed a line of defense. They used all their strength to defend the city wall and launched attacks continuously. They seemed unstoppable, but when they took a closer look, they found that they had little strength.
As more and more Raya soldiers climbed onto the city wall.
Seeing that the time had come, Henry raised his sword and roared.
"Raya justice! Those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Take control of the city wall and open the city gate!"
The fanatical Raya soldiers were undaunted and charged into battle.
"Tamubao soldiers, don't retreat! Kill Raya's soldiers back for me!"
"Death for the pig's head!"
I saw a long sword flying in the air, hitting the noncommissioned officer who was commanding the soldiers of Tamubao to fight back.
Enri hurriedly picked up a long sword from the ground, raised it high and shouted.
"Brothers, kill! Kill all the pig heads who don't surrender!"
The Raya soldiers were unstoppable. In a series of charges, they overturned the wall control of the Tamubao soldiers in one fell swoop.
Everything was decided in the intertwining of blood and fire. The Raya soldiers won the victory in the fierce fighting, opened the passage into the city, and controlled the city gate.
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
These words were what Xu Siling required the soldiers to shout while climbing the wall.
The morale of the soldiers in Tamubao was already problematic. After the noncommissioned officers who commanded and supervised them died one by one, most of the soldiers were unable to drop their weapons and surrender.
It can be said that this siege was extremely perfect.
With the flag of Raya Town erected on the city wall, Faile, who was watching everything on the hillside, couldn't help but smile.
Xu Siling was riding outside the castle. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but understand. He turned around and gave instructions.
"Ximei, follow the plan and lead a group of cavalry to support the siege outside the castle. Don't let anyone escape from Tamubao."
"Yes, my lord."
"Terry, lead the other cavalry and follow me into the outer city of Tamubao, clear out the other soldiers, and protect the siege vehicles from entering the inner fort."
"receive!"
Under the order, the cavalry unit was divided into two. Xu Siling led Terry and other cavalrymen and rushed into the opened city gate.
The catapults have stopped attacking.
But the situation inside Tamubao was still tragic, with fires burning all over the place, and the soldiers of Tamubao were unable to put out the fire.
Many wounded and screaming soldiers, it was like hell.
Xu Siling rushed into the city. He was not in a hurry to find the Tamubao soldiers lurking in the outer city. He ordered Terry to take people to do these things.
Terry understood, and the cavalry began to take over the battlefield.
Xu Siling is now the commander. Although he wants to do things like charging into battle, he cannot be willful.
Moreover, killing the soldiers in Tamubao did not increase his skill proficiency. Now that the advantage was one-sided, there was no need for him to compete with the Raya soldiers for such meaningless heads.
He led two cavalrymen at the city gate to protect the siege vehicles as they advanced into the city.
Xu Siling took the siege vehicle and headed towards the inner fortress little by little.
The endless flames were burning on the road, and now the shouts were gradually dying down.
Many Tamubao soldiers were no longer able to resist and surrendered one after another.
On the city wall, Anli and Henry also led soldiers down to the city and rushed towards Xu Siling.
"Henry, tell people to carry out the wounded soldiers first, focusing on rescuing them."
"Yes, my lord."
"Enri, are you injured?"
Enri's helmet was knocked over and there was blood on her forehead. She grinned.
"It's a small thing, I got hit on the head."
Seeing that it was nothing serious, Xu Siling couldn't help but nodded with peace of mind.
"The cavalry is clearing the outer city. Please order some people to disperse and take all the surrendered soldiers out of the city."
"OK."
"We will attack the inner fort later. Khamis probably won't surrender. Wear your helmet. There is still a life-and-death battle waiting for you."
Enri understood. She turned to look at the soldier beside her and grabbed his helmet.
"You, you just heard it, take ten people to catch the pig head in Tamubao."
The soldier looked embarrassed and touched his head without his helmet: "Enri, I'm not like you."
"Go quickly." Enri laughed loudly and kicked the soldier.
Seeing this, Xu Siling smiled and shook his head. With Enli's temperament, how could he be willing not to participate in every battle?
The outer city gradually came under control, and Raya soldiers filled the outer city. After a while, control of the outer city came into the hands of Raya soldiers.
Xu Siling knew that victory was not yet complete, and now the only thing left was the inner fort. As long as the inner fort was captured, it would be a real victory.
The siege vehicle has been pushed in front of the inner castle, and many Raya soldiers have surrounded it.
The inner castle wall is not very high, and the ladder has to be cut in half before it can be used.
There are not many guards standing on the city wall.
Most of these guards are Khamis's standing army. They are strong and have better morale than the soldiers in the outer city.
But it is not difficult to see from their eyes that there is some morale, but not much.
Especially when Xu Siling appeared on horseback in front of the inner castle gate, they did not dare to look at Xu Siling.
"Call Khamis out."
Xu Siling rode forward. This time he was wearing armor and carrying a shield, and he was not afraid of someone sneaking up and shooting arrows.
"Here I am, Executioner Knight."
Khamis revealed his wrinkled and resentful face from the city wall. Three days later, he looked a little older.
"You lose, open the city gate and surrender." (End of Chapter)
