Rise of the Empire Total War
Chapter 205: The Siege Begins
"Your Majesty Caesar, there seems to be internal strife in the city?"
The movements in the city quickly alarmed the Winster army besieging the city. Hearing the screams of killing, Lieutenant General Toolagris reminded Richard who was beside him. The latter nodded and did not show Surprised look.
"This is within my expectations, my dear Toolagris." Richard said flatly, "After learning that the Principality of West Connahta surrendered to me, the West Connahta army in the city will inevitably be defeated. deal with it, the Kurnias will not accept that there is still instability in their capital."
"Your Majesty's wisdom is really admirable to me." Tooragris patted a rainbow fart solemnly, and then continued: "Then, the strength of the defenders will be weakened, and we can take the opportunity to launch an attack." Hey, sir for a while! If you like it, please collect it: () Zhaishuyuan is updated the fastest.
Richard didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His lieutenant general was good in everything, but he was too war-crazed. He was also in Fort Hoviny before, and now he is still thinking about taking the initiative to attack. This is not okay. For his own good, he must be changed.
Thinking of this, Richard's tone suddenly became serious, and he said: "General Tooragris, as a military commander, it is very important to attack bravely, but it is more important to grasp the timing. Only by grasping a good opportunity to launch an attack , we can get better results, and attacking at the wrong time may be counterproductive and increase casualties." Damn, another paragraph is missing! Zhaishuyuan, update the latest chapter as soon as possible!
...
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed, and 47 days had passed since Richard arrived at the capital of the Cunha Republic. After these 47 days of bombing, the walls of Plange were riddled with holes and appeared There were many collapsed gaps, not only that, but also the houses in the urban area were affected. Many houses collapsed, and the residents inside were buried in the ruins. A large number of civilians were homeless and could only sleep on the streets.
The Prange House in the center of the city was also attacked by stray bullets. A minaret built on it was destroyed, and the fallen wreckage even killed two congressmen and several guards.
Although the food in the city has not been exhausted, the hearts and morale of the people have begun to shake, and the talk of surrender has become the mainstream - after all, no one wants to be crushed by shells or boulders falling from the sky one day. Today, I can't watch it and I'm missing a paragraph! Remember for a second, Zhaishuyuan ().
After winning the victory, Charles did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it. Crossing the Loba River was the endless plain, which was the home field of the Lasik cavalry. Although the spear phalanx formed by the spear militia has the function of anti-cavalry, they can only form in place, retreat or attack may disrupt the formation), and can only be played to death by the Lasik people.
Under the circumstances that all aspects are beneficial to Richard, he finally decided to launch an attack on the city of Plange, which had been besieged for more than a month, and ended the regime of the Cunha Republic in one fell swoop.
On June 1, 1112 in the continental calendar, which happened to be the Children's Day of later generations, the First Army Corps surrounding Prange set up a siege posture amidst bursts of horns. Dozens of siege towers were lined up in the open space outside the city. Military flags were raised high and fluttering in the wind. Every soldier held his head high, his morale high, and he was full of confidence in the next siege.
The city wall was in chaos, people were moving around, and the warning bells rang wildly. Screaming, officers' yelling, soldiers' cursing, and the warning bells were intertwined and converged in the sky above the city.
Although the gap where the city wall collapsed was blocked by stones and wood, it was very weak. A large number of soldiers gathered behind the gap, forming a queue and waiting for the battle. full of panic.
Looking at the proud soldiers under his command, Richard stepped out of the army formation slowly, and stood in front of the army. He was dressed in exquisite king's armor,
Holding a saber symbolizing royal power, he said loudly:
"Soldiers of the empire, today, we are going to attack the city in front of us. Yes, today we will no longer just use artillery and catapults to bombard the city, but let you brave people use siege equipment to board Plange's City walls, fight bloody battles with the enemy!"
"Just yesterday, I had a dream. In the dream, the great God told me that this city has been severely corrupted by pagans. The whole city is full of the evil atmosphere of pagans from inside to outside. He was very dissatisfied. Therefore, God sent his oracle, and he asked us to conquer this city immediately, purify the residents in the city, and bring the glory of Christ to this city!
We always obey the oracle, the soldiers of the empire, in order to honor our Lord, fight the enemy bravely! "
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"
"After breaking through the city wall, all those who are still able to move in the sight of God will be killed!"
As soon as Richard finished speaking, the cheers of the whole army sounded again, even overshadowing the warning bells ringing in the city. All soldiers could understand the meaning behind Richard's words—as long as they appeared in front of their eyes, no matter Both civilians and enemies can be killed!
"Now, attack!"
Richard shouted again, and the King's Sword in his hand immediately slashed forward. The next moment, the horn of attack sounded, and the soldiers all stepped forward, pushing the tall siege tower forward with the company as a unit. March.
While the infantry was advancing, eighteen artillery pieces and twenty-eight trebuchets roared again. Dark shells and heavy boulders soared into the sky, whistling and flying towards the city wall of Prange, hitting heavily on the city that was already riddled with wounds. hole in the wall. Several artillery shells flew at high speed, directly hit the barrier built at the gap, and directly knocked it down.
"Defense! Defense! Archers prepare!"
On the city wall, facing the approach of Winster's army, the officers roared at the top of their voices. Immediately afterwards, groups of archers equipped with military bows ran behind the wall, skillfully drew arrows from their quiver, and set them on the wall. The bow draws the arrow, pulling the bowstring to the full moon, and then, only to hear the officer roar again, the rain of arrows rises from the city wall, draws a black arc in mid-air, and falls into the marching phalanx of the Winster Kingdom army. Most of them were blocked by the shield, making a clanging sound.
"Archers prepare! Launch a counterattack!"
Not long after the archers of the defenders shot, the archers of the First Legion also walked out of the army formation. Under the shout of the officer, they drew their bows and drew arrows together. The deadly arrows hit the bowstring and pointed at the figure on the city wall!
"Elevation angle 45°, shoot the arrow!"
Whoosh—
As soon as the officer finished speaking, a dense rain of arrows was sent into the sky, its density almost covering the sky. After a second or two, the dense rain of arrows covered the entire city wall. Except for a few lucky soldiers standing on it, They were all shot into hedgehogs!
