Under the attack of the large crossbows, the guards of the Grimsby Municipality were only passively beaten, but the archers on the arrow tower still drew their bows and aimed in the direction of Ulf and others.
"Me, Vargas and Luther walked from the front, and the people led by Ange came from the other side." Ulf stood in the center of the camp. He drew a simple diagram on the ground and pointed in the direction of the main entrance to the people surrounding him. said.
"Understood." Ange nodded. This strategy was quite satisfactory, using a frontal attack as a lure, and a surprise force entered the city.
The plan was simple, but it was enough for Ulf and his army. Ulf took the buckler and walked towards the city gate, followed by his personal soldiers, Vargas and Luther on the left and one on the left. On the right, their soldiers are also guarding the side with bucklers.
"Dang, Dang, Dang~~." When the guards on the wooden wall saw the Vikings coming towards them, they immediately sounded the alarm and fired arrows at Ulf and others.
"Shield." Vargas raised his hand and raised the shield in his hand, and the accompanying soldiers immediately used the shields in their hands to form a human mobile bunker. Ulf did not stop inside the shield wall, and Heitan quietly Rubbing by his feet silently, Ulf just glanced at it, then raised his head again and looked forward.
"Crack, crash~~." The shield walls made a sound as they rubbed against each other. Between the gaps in the shields, Ulf saw the wooden door getting closer and closer, and arrows kept falling on the shields like hailstones.
"Hurry up and use stones, they are approaching the city gate." The mayor saw the Vikings getting closer and closer to the gate, and he was immediately frightened. He remembered that the military magistrate once said that if arrows don't work, then use stones. If smashed.
However, without the military vigilante, the morale of the guards was greatly affected, not to mention the sudden attack by the Vikings, which left them poorly prepared and only a few rolled logs and stones.
"Boom~~." The stone fell from above his head and hit the shield hard, but the soldiers accompanying him held the shield firmly, making it impossible for the stone to penetrate the shield.
"Oh oh oh~~~." When the fortress composed of shield walls moved under the city wall, Luther raised the long-handled battle ax in his hand and aimed at the wooden city gate and smashed it hard.
"Ping~~." There was a loud noise, and the city gate was shaking. The guards at the city gate held the spears and pointed shields in their hands. Under the Angsa-style iron helmets, their eyes were full of fear, and The heart was beating violently with the percussion sound.
"Boom~~." Finally there was a muffled sound, and a big hole was opened in the wooden city gate, and the figure of the Viking swayed at the entrance of the hole.
"Kill~~." At this time, the guards thought of defending their homeland. They roared, raised their shields and spears, and rushed towards the entrance of the cave. They stabbed the entrance with the spears in their hands, while others picked up wooden boards. , nails and hammer, ready to repair the hole.
"Ahhhhh~~." But Luther slammed the wooden door like crazy. The ax split the wood chips everywhere, and the shaky wooden door finally fell down with a bang. The North warriors raised their bucklers, He blocked the spear tip extended by the guards, pushed forward suddenly, and struck close to the axe.
"Oh~~." The black coal that had been following Ulf was like a dark lightning, piercing into the middle of the guards. It bit a soldier's leg with its sharp teeth and began to bite. , the terrifying sound of chewing bones frightened and panicked the guards.
The North warriors carrying the ladders outside the city wall also began to storm the city wall, set up the ladders on the city wall, and climbed up. Suddenly there was a killing sound on the city wall.
At this time, the army led by Ange was approaching the east wall. They carefully carried ropes and hooks and leaned down as much as possible. The shouts of death from the direction of the gate had already attracted the attention of most of the guards. force, leaving only a few guards in this direction.
"Shh." Ange leaned tightly against the city wall. She turned her head and looked above, only to see the figures of one or two soldiers swaying between the walls. Ange made a silent gesture to the other shield maidens. action, and then picked up the iron hook and rope in his hand.
"Whoosh, Kangdang~~." The iron hook was thrown onto the city wall. Ange pulled the rope and the rope immediately tightened.
The shield girls carried their shields behind their backs, threw the ropes up the city wall one by one, and climbed up toward the top of the city. Only then did the guards on the city wall react. They hurriedly picked up the weapons in their hands and went to cut the ropes. It's just that a few people can't cut off all the ropes.
"Kang~~." Ange grabbed the rope and quickly climbed towards the city. The weight of a woman was already light, which was very suitable for this climbing method of siege.
Ange jumped into the wooden wall. She saw several guards holding spears and rushing toward her. She immediately pulled out the ax from her waist and threw it at one person.
"Ping~wuah." The ax hit one of the guards in the chest and knocked him to the ground. The other guard looked at these fierce Viking women in shock. He was so frightened that he turned around and was about to escape, but Ange But he took off the round shield he was carrying, stepped forward and slapped him on the back of the head, and then hit his head hard with the shield.
"Uh." Ange wiped the blood on her face, took out the Viking iron sword hanging from her waist, and led the shield girls toward the city gate where the battle was fierce.
At this time, the battle at the city gate was fierce. Ulf and his personal soldiers used the shield wall to advance bit by bit, while the guards of the Grimsby Borough also resisted desperately. The guards who were too close to the shield wall were hooked by Ulf's ax and pulled into the shield wall. They were struck by the ax several times. When the shield wall moved away, bloody corpses were left on the ground.
"Hold it, and whoever resists it will get a bounty." The mayor of Grimsby Borough was extremely anxious. He shouted loudly, and there must be brave men who are rewarded. Sure enough, he heard that there was a bounty. With the presence of the guards, the morale of the guards immediately increased. They picked up the pointed shields in their hands and pushed them up. The Viking iron swords and spears from both sides stabbed each other, and from time to time, unlucky people fell down.
"Carry out the wounded soldiers." When Ulf saw the stabbed North warrior in front, he immediately asked someone to drag the injured North soldier back and transport him from the shield wall to the rear.
"Ahhhhh~~." Just when the stalemate was happening, Ange led the shield girls to attack from the side. The guards did not expect that their flanks were suddenly attacked, and the position suddenly became chaotic, and Ulf also took the opportunity. Order the Vargas and Luthors to attack.
"Don't retreat, don't retreat." The mayor saw his soldiers starting to abandon their armor. No matter how much money they had, they had to spend it with their lives.
Above the city gate, the flag belonging to the Grimsby Municipality fell, and a wolf-headed flag slowly rose. Thick smoke and screams rang out in the town. After defeating the guards, the Grimsby Municipality completely Without the ability to organize resistance, they could only let Ulf's army loot them.
"Ping~~." Ulf walked into the mayor's official residence, which was an Angsa-style house built with stone. He walked into the house and picked up a silver candlestick and threw it away. To Vargas behind him.
"Ah, it would be nice if there was wine." Vargas took the candlestick, sat down on the wooden chair tiredly, and said to Ulf.
"Bring the mayor here." Ulf was also very tired, and his lining and armor were almost stuck together with sweat. However, after occupying the Grimsby Municipality, there was still a lot to do, so he said Vargas ordered.
"Oh~~." The mayor was found in a haystack in a warehouse. He originally thought he could escape, but his fat body still betrayed him. Several old hens were dissatisfied with their nests being occupied. , clucking and pecking his butt with its sharp mouth, and this noise was quickly discovered by the Norse.
Ulf sat on the chair. He looked down at the mayor in front of him. His originally luxurious clothes were now in tatters, worn out by Vargas dragging them all the way. His face was covered with dust, and his brown hair It was covered in hay.
"Tell him we won't hurt him." Ulf turned to Tyran next to him and said.
"Yes." Tai Lun quickly translated to the mayor.
After listening to Ulf's words, the mayor immediately relaxed a lot. Only then did he have the time to raise his head and look at Ulf in front of him. This was a young Viking with blond hair, but he didn't know why he could have such a handsome appearance. A tough Vikings team.
"I will cooperate." For the sake of his own life, the mayor quickly knelt on the ground and begged Ulf for mercy. His humble behavior filled Vargas and others with contempt.
"Very good." Ulf picked up the axe, scratched his itchy cheek with the tip of the axe, and said to the mayor with a smile. A puppet mayor who is greedy for life and afraid of death is the best thing for him. .
In a well, there was actually no water in this well. There was a shelter in the dry well. Women and children were hiding in the shelter in the well. They were frightened when they heard the noise outside and the occasional begging for mercy. Huddled together, the women hugged the children tightly and covered their mouths to prevent them from screaming.
"Here." The mayor was pushed by Vargas and came to this dry well. He pointed at the well with a grimace, indicating that there was someone hiding here.
"Yeah." Ulf tilted his head. Vargas was about to step forward, but was stopped by Ange. She took the initiative to step forward and grab the well rope and pull it down, with an ax stuck in her waist.
"Kangdang, Kangdang." Although the water in the well was dry, there was still a rope on the wellhead to draw water. Ange grabbed the rope and went down, and the barrel collided with the wall of the well, making a muffled sound.
Ange soon saw the shelter dug in the well. When she appeared at the entrance of the cave, the Mercian women and children all showed nervous expressions, and Ange initially responded by hiding the enemy and put one hand on On the ax handle at her waist, but when she looked intently, she saw a little girl hugged tightly by her mother, looking at her curiously with her big blue eyes.
"Yeah." Ange couldn't help but smile. She released her hand from the ax handle and touched the little girl's face.
"The Indestructible King of the Great Village"
When the women and children hiding in the well were brought out one by one, they saw the mayor standing awkwardly. It was obvious that the mayor had betrayed them, and Ulf nodded slightly to express his satisfaction. These women and children They will be taken away as slaves. This is the law of survival in this era.
With the help of the mayor, the Vikings quickly plundered all the gold and silver treasures in the entire town without having to search aimlessly. When they left Grimsby Borough, the horse-drawn carriage was full of gold and silver. They took possession of their property and supplies, and tied a long string of slaves behind the carriage.
"That's the castle of Earl Linzi!" Ulf stood on the wooden wall of Grimsby Municipality, looking at the castle not far from the town. The strange thing was that when they burned the town, there was no one in the castle. No support actions were taken.
"That's right, but the strange thing is that they didn't come to support." Tyron nodded slightly. Maybe the raid by Ulf and others was too sudden, so the mayor didn't have time to report, but he saw thick smoke rising from the town. At that time, Count Linqi should at least send out reconnaissance.
"No, you deceived me." At this time, the mayor, who was locked in a wooden cage, was grabbing the wooden bars and shouting loudly.
"Shut up, Master Ulf is just taking you as a hostage. As long as he hands over fifty horses, he will let you go." Tyron seemed to be unable to listen anymore. He strode to the wooden cage and said to the mayor.
"Damn it, you are also an Ansa, why are you helping the Vikings?" The mayor seemed desperate. It was impossible for him to gather fifty horses. It seemed that the only way for him was to be killed or sold as a slave. Anger made him forget his fear. He didn't resent the Vikings, but the mixed-blood Angsa man in front of him was the object of his hatred.
"Shut up, I am also a Norseman. I am different from a traitor like you. Don't forget that you can only survive by betraying your compatriots." Tyron angrily hit the mayor's finger with his fist and said viciously to him .
"Uh, woo, hahahahaha~~." After his finger was hit, the mayor let go in pain, but he curled up in the cage and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Why are you laughing?" Tai Lun frowned and said to the mayor.
"You think those Vikings will trust you. You are wrong. Bastards will always be bastards. The Angsa people will not trust you, and the Vikings are even less likely to trust you. They are just using you." The mayor grinned. With a smile on his face and his eyes fixed on Tai Lun, he said to him.
"Shut up, shut up." Tyron was enraged. He picked up the stick next to the cage and stabbed the mayor hard.
"Oh woo~~." But at this moment, Hei Tan's figure appeared. It grinned and showed its fangs, threatening Tai Lun, scaring Tai Lun so much that he dropped the stick in his hand.
"Oh woo, hahaha, bastard, traitor, wolf, woo woo." The mayor wailed after being hit by the stick, but when he saw the black coal next to the cage, he made a frightened sound again.
