Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

571 Temporary Victory

The burning ladders, the destroyed shield carriages, the damaged and re-repaired trench bridges, the collapsed arrow towers, corpses everywhere, and the battle flags still standing against the wind all told everyone that this was a cruel battle.

Today is only the first day of the war, and the Rakshasa Man and the Guiyi Brigade have already brought the intensity of the war to a new level.

Starting from the morning, the Rakshasa Man first used the trench bridge to open the way, then suppressed it with the arrow tower, then charged with the trench bridge shield vehicle, and finally the army launched a fierce attack on the Guiyi Brigade on the city wall with the help of ladders.

This was an extremely brutal battle, with both the enemy and ourselves fighting tooth and nail.

The erection of the archery tower means that more than 100 archers from the Rakshasa Man suppressed the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade defending the city.

The archery tower was too high, higher than the city wall. The advantage of the Guiyi Brigade on the city wall was wiped out by half, causing the Rakshasa infantry to advance rapidly.

It may be that Rakshasa Man was in a hurry. Many of the siege equipment it invested in, such as ladders, arrow towers, shield carts, etc., were damaged and unable to move as soon as they entered the battlefield. It can only be said that they were of poor quality.

But even so, there were still a large number of engineering equipment rushing under the city wall, and then covering the Rakshasa barbarian rushing up.

"Flail soldiers, enter!"

"God Archer, knock down the archery tower!"

"Fire oil, fire oil!"

"Smash rocks and rolling logs at me!"

"Kill kill kill!"

"Send the arrow, release the arrow!"

"what!"

"Help, help!"

"Charge forward, don't stop, charge forward!"

"Come on, come on!"

Under the city wall and on the city wall, there were shouts of death, screams, and shouts everywhere.

Once the two sides come into contact, it becomes intense.

Under the command of the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade, the flail soldiers stepped forward, hid behind the wall stacks, and attacked the Rakshasa barbarians climbing the ladder under the cover of shields.

The power of the flail was very powerful. Those who were hit would either have their brains exploded or their skin and flesh would be torn apart, and their muscles and bones would be dislocated. For a while, the flail soldiers stabilized the enemy's route through conventional ladders.

The difference is the Rakshasa archers. Although the attacking soldiers below are being beaten, the archers in the archery tower are condescending, so it is the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade who are being beaten.

Therefore, the Guiyi Brigade immediately organized divine archers to counterattack it.

Although the archery tower is said to be condescending, the baffle is made of wood after all. In theory, it may not be able to block a strong bow at close range.

However, there are a lot of wet straws on the roof of the archery tower and the surrounding baffles. These things can effectively block the enemy's arrows and make it more difficult for the enemy's rockets to work.

In this case, the archer's counterattack was actually quite difficult. He could only barely provide cover for the defending warriors to prevent the enemy from attacking from below.

The arrows pierced the air, and many people on both sides were hit by arrows.

It's just that the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade have more armor and shields, so the damage is much less.

But the Rakshasa barbarians were different. Although they were also elites, wearing leather armor and carrying shields, they were on the offensive side after all. This advantage was erased to a certain extent, so they suffered more casualties in battle.

Similarly, the archery towers of the divine archers and Rakshasa barbarians also suffered losses in the confrontation with each other, and the Rakshasa barbarians suffered more serious losses, because their archers were just pure archers. Sometimes, being condescending also occupies a certain disadvantage.

"Rush rush!"

Braving arrows, the Rakshasa soldiers pushed the ladders directly to the city wall under the cover of shield vehicles. With a roaring sound, the ladders were tightly connected to the city wall.

The soldiers of the Rakshasa Man jumped on the ladder the moment it fell, quickly climbed up and charged forward.

"Smash me!"

Facing the Rakshasa barbarians rushing from the ladder, the soldiers guarding the city did not panic. While being careful about arrows, they raised stones and smashed them below.

"boom!"

A stone hit the shield of a charging Rakshasa.

"what!"

The huge impact did not smash the crudely made shield, but the arm of the Rakshasaman holding the shield was directly broken. The pain caused by the sudden impact made him scream and fall down.

However, the standing army of Rakshasa barbarians had already gone crazy for the sake of being a free citizen and did not take their own lives at all, so when one fell, the other continued to charge forward without stopping.

"Fire oil!"

In fact, the best fire oil should be the legendary fierce fire oil. That thing is the best for defending the city. Unfortunately, the fierce fire oil is just a legend now. The oil used by the soldiers who defend the city is more sesame oil or tung oil.

These things can also burn, but they need to be ignited in advance and then poured down.

For a moment, for the Rakshasa Man, it was like a rain of fire that covered his head and face, which was extremely frightening.

"what!"

In the fire, some people could not bear the burning, rolling and screaming, and the smell of meat was wafting everywhere.

However, everyone is feeling sad.

Don't stop, keep attacking!

Facing the fierce fire, Rakshasaman could not help but hesitate a little even though he was not afraid of death. However, under the urging of the officer, he still gritted his teeth and rushed forward.

On the ladder that was burned by the fire, there were people holding weapons and shields and rushing up in the fire, not caring that the fire had ignited themselves. They were crazy.

"Smash!"

Facing these people, the only response was to smash them down with stones and rolling wood.

The enemy rushed upward continuously, without any regard for casualties or danger, they just kept charging forward. Even though the Guiyi Brigade was well prepared, some places were eventually broken through by the enemy's lifeless impact.

"Push it back, push it back!"

Under the pressure of the enemy's arrows, the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade could only temporarily give up the protection above their heads and defeat the enemy first.

And at this time, the enemy's arrows will try to avoid this place to prevent accidental killing of friendly troops.

"kill!"

Someone exploded, their shields collided, and their steel knives slashed at each other.

"prick!"

After all, the pikemen and spearmen have the advantage of weapons. If several spears are thrust at them, the enemy will be unable to stop them!

Therefore, although the enemy seemed to have broken through the city wall, they never took a step forward.

Increasingly anxious, the Rakshasa barbarian officer's expression did not change and he gave the order directly.

"Archers, the enemy's attack is suppressed by the rain of arrows. Don't worry about accidentally injuring friendly troops!"

Obviously, this officer didn't care about the life and death of the soldiers who climbed up the wall. After all, they couldn't attack and ended up dying on the wall.

In this case, let the archers directly use bows and arrows to support them, and don't worry about whether they accidentally injure these soldiers.

As long as they can open up the situation and make their breakthrough wider, what if they are accidentally injured?

This was a cruel order, but it was also the most correct order, because this order gave the soldiers who later climbed the wall a chance to survive.

"kill!"

The order was cold, but the fight was even more cruel, so both sides could only fight hard.

Although life is not valuable, no one wants to die like this.

As the sun gradually set, the officers of the standing army wanted to continue to invest more troops, but seeing the alarmingly slow advance on the city wall, they could only give the order.

"withdraw troops!"

After giving the order, the army began to retreat, and the officer also came to Viscount Henrietta in advance and bowed.

"Your Majesty the Governor, our attack failed!"

Viscount Henrietta did not blame him, "I can see clearly. In fact, the reason for this failure is me. I was too anxious."

"The first attack requires too much preparation. I shouldn't have agreed to directly attack the Dagan people's city wall today."

"And you did a good job. Our soldiers are tired and hungry after a day of fighting. It is wise to withdraw at this time."

The officer bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Governor."

Viscount Henrietta nodded, "Now, you have to communicate with those soldiers, and then come up with a better solution, and then attack tomorrow."

"I obey your orders!"

At the same time, watching the Rakshasa barbarians recede like a tide, the soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade cheered loudly.

"The enemy has retreated, the enemy has retreated!"

At this time, only the flames of war could be seen everywhere, and the bloody mountains and rivers remained the same.

The soldiers of the Guiyi Brigade started to treat their injured comrades after cheering and at the same time collected their bodies.
