Realm of Power

Date: November 06

The horse's hooves stepped into the clear river beach and sparkled with crystal clear white water. Appleton's 1st Cavalry Squadron lined up in a silver arc and stepped across the defense line along the Suli River east of Fort Djerbo.

The war horse roared, the knight's armor shone dazzlingly in the sun, the tip of the ice spear was dyed red with blood, and the thin defense line of the Samor Army was already in disarray and in disarray under several impacts. Retreat into the low walls of Djerbo

Broken spears and corpses lay scattered all over the riverside. The Riedian infantry followed the knights' queue, advancing like a wall, with towering spears and scale-like shield walls, just as expected.

The empty outer defense line of Jerbo Fort was almost defeated in front of the main knights of Ruidian. These local troops of Samor who resisted desperately were very different from the regular army of Samor in terms of equipment and fighting will.

The only thing that is good is courage. Even in the face of the advance of Ruierdian's heavy armored group, these local troops who are similar to peasant soldiers still bravely formed a simple defense line along the outer river.

"A mob. Vulnerable." A sneer of disdain appeared at the corner of Upton's mouth, and he waved his hand and said, "Order the infantry to take down the city wall. I will hold a celebration banquet at Jalbo Fort tonight." /

"Woo woo" the military trumpet is long and long

Three thousand Ruidian heavy infantry advanced in three columns, holding shields high in their hands and marching with firm steps. Bloodthirsty desire flashed on their cold faces. A sparse arrowhead shot from the city wall could not shake the formation in the slightest. , can only make a few crisp sounds on the shield in vain

The city wall quickly approached, and "attack with the whole team." The infantry captain of Rui Erdian did not care about the arrows fired from the opposite side. He raised his spear high and shouted to the troops behind him. They were all Rui Erdian's real elites, with heavy armor and thick shields. The heavy Mitsubishi spear can pierce any enemy's armor. Only the best of the second and third squadron guards are eligible to be transferred to the first squadron guard team.

The speed of the first row of infantry accelerated, like a giant white slap hitting the thick city wall, and dozens of siege ladders were quickly set up at the battlements.

"Kill" Rui Erdian's heavy infantrymen braved the constant arrows and spears stabbing from above to climb up. The heavy Mitsubishi spears in their hands were entangled with the spears of the defenders at the battlements. People kept climbing up the ladder. Falling down with a howl

There are only 2,000 defenders in Djalpo Fort. After occupying Djalpo Fort, Fatty not only thickened the city walls on the original basis, but also added a squadron of heavy ballistae.

Disadvantage in numbers. The Samor army's city wall defense line was constantly being broken through by the Ruidian people who swarmed up the city wall. More and more white armors of the Ruidian infantry swarmed up the city wall.

"Kill!" yelled Rui Erdian, the infantry captain who was leading the charge. He pierced the abdomen of the Samor infantry with all his strength and used all his strength to push forward against the Samor infantry.

Under his feet lay a dozen or so indistinguishable corpses. The blood gathered on the city wall to form a blood clot. When his feet stepped on it, the muddy and slippery feeling made people feel weird and terrifying.

"Hurry up, push the crossbow up!" the Samor soldiers shouted anxiously. The defense line on the east side of the city wall was torn open by the Ruidian people, and more and more Ruidian people were shouting to go to the gap. upwelling,

"Dang Dang" the spears of the Samor army struggled to barrel down

More than a dozen people worked together to push the heavy ballista from the city wall passage onto the already precarious city wall defense line.

More than a dozen heavy-duty ballistae on the top of the "Bengbeng" city roared, and the dense rain of black arrows was like a torrential rain, covering the heads of the unprepared Ruidian infantry.

"Ah" before the Ruidian soldier who had just climbed up the city wall had time to raise his weapons and cheer, violent roars mixed with black shadows had already enveloped him.

The powerful crossbow arrows penetrated several Ruidian soldiers in succession, and a huge arrow emerged from behind the last person dripping with blood. Several soldiers looked at the "big killer" that penetrated their chests. He fell from the top of the city with a face full of disbelief. …,

"Bump" The shields of the first row of Ruidian infantrymen were like clay pots hit by a heavy hammer, cracking from the inside out. The entire row of shield walls was no thicker than a thin piece of paper before being penetrated by the powerful ballistae.

Blood spurted out from between the twisted shields and the shattered armor of the infantry. The city wall, which was crowded just now, fell like straw harvested by a sickle.

This terrifying attack power suffocated the attack momentum of the Ruidian infantry. The Ruidian infantry who had just rushed up to the city wall retreated one after another. On the city wall, the bloody corpses of their companions were cut into several pieces by crossbow arrows, and severed limbs and hands could be seen everywhere. , just like a rain of blood just fell from the top of the city,

Minced meat mixed with bright red blood dripped from the battlements and fell on the faces of the pale soldiers who were still climbing the wall below. "vomit". One soldier felt his face heat up, and when he touched it with his hand, he saw a bloody eye. It was still steaming, and I immediately felt sick and bent over and vomited.

Although the deaths were horrific, there were also many who were not killed or injured. Hundreds of Ruidian infantrymen were holding their bloody wounds and howling miserably on top of the city. Since it was an siege, they were already prepared to die, but such a tragic and horrific death still overwhelmed the nerves of the Ruidian infantrymen, who huddled together in a panic at the foot of the city.

Appleton looked at the panic-stricken infantry, decisively drew out the Knight Command Sword, and shouted, "The first team to enter Djerbo will be promoted to Blood Knights collectively. Anyone who retreats without authorization will be killed."

In Ruidian, the knight class is an absolute aristocratic class. Army commanders must first be knights, and noble promotion must have the title of knight. The origin of knights is very complicated. In addition to His Majesty the King and local lords having the right to canonize their own knights, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of knights, legion commanders in various places also have the right to canonize knights. Soldiers who excel in combat are knights and can serve as mid-level commanders. This kind of knight is called a blood knight, which is a disguised military reward.

The Ruidian infantrymen, whose morale was low after hearing that they could be promoted to knights, cheered up. Under the leadership of the captain in front, they roared and surged up the city wall again, holding up their shields.

"Kill" In order to buy time for the heavy crossbow to be recharged, the outnumbered Samor defenders once again entangled with the Ruildian army. Both sides were furious, and more and more Ruildian soldiers rushed to the battlements. , spears and spears collided together, corpses continued to fall from the two parties fighting each other,

"Beng Beng"'s long-awaited heavy crossbow bowstring once again made the muffled sound of cotton tearing, and the dense and powerful scattered crossbow arrows roared across the Ruidian people like a hurricane.

"Dang Dang" there was a rapid crashing sound, and blood sprayed everywhere. The broken and twisted shield flew into the air,

This time the Ruidian people learned the lesson and used shields and spears to form a dense array of spears. After the crossbow arrows smashed the first two layers of shields, they could no longer pass through.

The powerful crossbow arrows swept out several shocking blood ditches in the dense formation of the Ruidian people, "Kill them and don't give the Samors time. The Ruidian army, who were already on guard this time, shouted,

He stepped over the corpses of his companions without any scruples, and charged forward with his spear straightened. The numerical advantage quickly overwhelmed Samor's meager resistance. Without the protection of the city walls and crossbows, Samor's defenders simply could not stand up to Rui Erdian. Infantry counterbalance.

The remaining few hundred people were quickly overwhelmed by the crowd of Redians. Finally, a Samorian spearman was pierced by three Redian spears. He was held up in the air by the combined efforts of the Redians, and his body was He was twitching in mid-air, his feet were shaking weakly, and blood poured out from his mouth, eyes, and wounds, dripping onto the ground and turning into a pool of blood.

"Shoot!" The thirty-odd Samor crossbowmen guarding the arrow tower continued to shoot deadly crossbow arrows from high places. The Ruidian infantrymen who tried to rush towards the arrow tower were shot to the ground.

The Ruierdian soldiers who occupied the city wall began to besiege this last stronghold. The sight of the densely packed enemy below made everyone's scalp numb. After the crossbowmen fired the last crossbow arrow, they all pulled out the daggers at their waists...,

"Come on, brothers." Captain Samor's crossbowman looked at his helpless subordinates, smashed the crossbow arrows into pieces on the wall, walked firmly to the edge of the arrow tower, looked at his subordinates calmly, and smiled at the corners of his mouth. He said, "Don't let these Ruidian dogs laugh at us. We are Samor warriors just like the spearmen who fight to the death."

"Pa" there was a crisp sound from below the arrow tower, the iron door was forcibly broken open by the Ruidian people, and there was a sound of armor shaking from the corner of the corridor.

"Samor's glory will last forever," the captain of Samor's crossbowmen shouted, jumping down from the arrow tower more than ten meters high first.

"Ah" a Ruidian infantryman let out a shrill cry after being hit. He tried hard to throw down the crossbowman captain who was pressing on him, but he still cried and howled miserably.

The other Ruier Dian soldiers looked like they had seen a ghost and scattered in panic.

Captain Samor's crossbowmen lay on the ground, spit out half of his bloody ear from his bloody mouth, and shouted "Come on, you coward" with a stern expression on his face.

His body was covered in wounds, and he was still struggling to stand up. His body was pierced by several spears, and blood spurted out.

A Samor crossbowman stood on the edge of the arrow tower. Looking at the bloody body of the crossbowman captain below, he cheered to himself secretly, "Don't be afraid, I am a Samor warrior." He looked at the beautiful Jerbo Plain in the distance, and the beautiful Satsuma Rijiang River sparkling in the sun. , the white pine trees are swaying in the wind, and the green earth is full of vitality

"Farewell to my hometown, my Jerbo"

A black line suddenly appeared in the clear sky, which dazzled his eyes. The unique red color of the Samor Falcon flag stood out under the blue sky. appear particularly conspicuous,

The spears are like a forest, and the darkness is sweeping in like a dark cloud.

"They are our people, they are our people" the crossbowman suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted excitedly,

"Woooo" a loud bugle sounded outside the city. Ruierdian's army, which had been full of morale just now, made a commotion. They abandoned all the occupied city walls and retreated hesitantly.

Outside the city, Appleton also spotted the rapidly approaching Samor reinforcements. His face turned pale. It had only been five days since the invasion. Could it be that all these Samor troops had flown over?
