Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 194 The Battle of Pedro

Pedro, outside the city named after Wilfred's family name, the army of Hebrew and Marcelo has already approached the city, and a black mass of soldiers is just three hundred miles away from the east gate of Pedro City. The camp consisted of stretching tents, surrounded by a circle of wooden horses, and an observation tower erected before death, all to prevent Wilfred from sending cavalry to attack the camp at night to burn supplies or siege equipment. Kind of thing happens.

Wilfred, who had a thick gray beard, stood on the city wall, using a monocle telescope to observe the countless family flags hanging not far away, and the entire area on the north side of the camp. The exact same flag, where is the position of the Yang Yan Group.

Wilfred's face was gloomy. When he heard that Francisco sent troops to attack after his death, he had already thought of what might happen. After all, the second prince would definitely not allow a wave of resistance not far from the royal city. power.

But greed blinded his eyes. He thought that when the second prince came back to deal with this place, he should have captured Francisco's territory. Can't fully deal with their second prince confrontation.

At that time, he may make the Marquess of Wilfred, or even the Duke of Wilfred! His family will also become one of the most powerful families in Gaoling, but unfortunately, the premature defeat of the Marquis of Afalia disrupted everything. The pressure of the prince Hebrew came with the army.

And he never expected that Hebrew would not play his cards according to common sense, instead of dealing with the sixth prince who was the most threatening force first, he would deal with him first.

The army outside the city has been assembled. The 5,000-strong army brought by Hebrew, plus half of the militia team from Tana, has a militia team of more than 3,000 people. The soldiers under Hebrew are already Will The strength of Fred's army is about three times, and this is not counting the 2,000 people left behind by the Marquis of Tana.

The giant catapult and the siege ladder were slowly pushed out, and the soldiers had already started loading the catapult. Stones with a diameter of half a meter were put into the launcher of the catapult, and the siege ladder was also slowly pushed out. Pushing towards the city wall, the lower end of the siege ladder extended to the surrounding area above the wheels, and the thick wooden boards above the head effectively protected the soldiers pushing the cart from being killed by the arrows attacking from above.

"Light it up!" Seeing that the enemy army had started to attack, Wilfred raised his hand and shouted orders.

The braziers placed at intervals were suddenly lit, and the archers put the arrow tips wrapped in tarpaulins in the braziers and lit them.

"Shoot the arrow!" Wilfred waved the long sword in his hand forward, and the dense rain of fire was shot into the sky immediately, and began to descend after drawing a graceful arc.

"Dang, clang, clang!" The sound of arrows shooting into the wood was dense, and the soldiers who charged forward with the ladder fell down, but the soldiers under the siege ladder were basically uninjured, and the black paint on the siege ladder The paint is obviously not for good looks, and the rocket falling on the siege ladder cannot ignite the siege ladder like ordinary wood.

"Anchor crossbow!" Seeing that the fire attack was useless, Aldred hurriedly continued to shout.

Several huge machines placed on the wide watchtower of the city wall immediately started to move. The soldiers controlled the huge anchor crossbow and aimed it at the siege ladder. Then the soldiers on the side immediately turned off the engine, and a huge crossbow bolt The thick rope linked behind hit the siege ladder and got stuck deeply inside.

The soldiers under the siege ladder didn't know what happened, and they continued to push the siege ladder forward. After the bolts of the anchor crossbow were stuck and attacked the city ladder, the soldiers controlling the anchor crossbow immediately turned the mechanism vigorously, so that the rope tied to the crossbow bolt was pulled back continuously, and then tightened tightly.

"1! 2! 1! 2!" The soldiers defending the city pulled the rope back vigorously. From time to time, some people were hit by the arrow and fell down, but other soldiers would soon make up for it.

The rope was pulled back little by little by the soldiers, and the siege ladder that was caught by the crossbow was also pulled up and tilted. The soldiers under the siege ladder panicked when they saw the siege ladder tilted. Many people even forgot to use force, and some of them ran out directly.

Without their support, the siege ladder tilted faster, and soon with the sound of "boom!", the heavy siege ladder was dragged to the ground and shattered directly, and many unlucky people fell into pieces directly. was stoned to death.

Seeing the siege ladder being pulled down, Hebrew and Marcelo, who were commanding not far away, frowned, and then Marcelo shouted to the adjutant beside him:

"Let those catapults take care of those anchor crossbows, and tell them that if they can't shoot correctly, if they don't lose their function after the soldiers ascend the city, I'll cut off their heads and use them as chamber pots!"

"Yes, commander!" The adjutant immediately ran to the position of the catapult position.

Then those anchor crossbows really received the key care of the catapult. Although the accuracy of the catapult could not guarantee that they could destroy the anchor crossbows, it also succeeded in preventing the soldiers from successfully controlling the anchor crossbows to deal with the siege ladder.

"Boom!" As the heavy suspension bridge of the siege ladder fell on the city wall, it indicated that the most critical time for the city had arrived.

"Ah!!!" The roaring soldiers rushed out of the siege ladder, holding their shields and weapons and rushing towards the city wall along the suspension bridge. Soon, most of the walls were in contention with each other.

"Ha!" Wilfred cut down a soldier rushing over with his sword, and then touched the blood on his face with a very pessimistic expression. He knew that unless a miracle happened, he would even repel the attack , can't last long.

"Hold on! Don't let them occupy a favorable position!" Wilfred roared loudly while slaying the surrounding enemies. It is still very sure to deal with these ordinary soldiers with the help of the army.

After nearly an hour of fighting, the siege party receded like a tide, and Wilfred was panting heavily, with blood dripping from his right arm. The mercenary guy wounded it with an armor-piercing cone.

After treating the wound and returning to the mansion, Wilfred directly called his most trusted confidant.

"Pedro can't hold it anymore. I'm going to die here. Immediately I will pack up and salute, take my family and guards and leave the city through the secret road. As soon as the opposite side shows signs of attack tomorrow, you will open the city gate and surrender. You know. What? The leader on the opposite side is Hebrew, he is a sworn knight and will not harm you!"
