total conquest

Chapter 20 Siege
"Toke, don't be nervous, take a deep breath, fight and listen to my password"

"Uncle John, are you really the steward of His Royal Highness the Prince?" Tork was originally just one of the countless refugees who flocked to Altdorf, but now he was wearing an imperial uniform and holding a powder rifle, standing on the city wall.Toke was facing tens of thousands of rebels and dozens of artillery pieces under the city. The tense atmosphere on the city wall and the cold night made the young man tremble all over.These teams of musketeers are basically farmers. Some of them are full of fear like Tok, while others are extremely excited. Regardless of their mentality, they stand here and accept the leadership of the silver-haired Uncle John.

"Of course, I know you want to ask why I stand here like you, right? Toke" Old John is old and has been the butler of an idiot prince for so many years. He has already lost his momentum. In Toke's eyes He is a kind old man. If he hadn't seen Old John chatting with the Marshal from a distance during the training in the military camp, Toke would not believe that a housekeeper of the palace stood with them in the middle of the night. After all, they are just a group of ordinary civilians.

"Yes, Uncle John, I think you are a noble. Why are you still standing on the front line?" Farmers only need to be responsible for farming. As for the aristocracy, the largest official Tok has ever seen is only at the village chief level. Fortunately, the village chief treats them well, and Tok has no hatred for the nobles. Of course, this is at the foot of the imperial city after all. As for other places, it's hard to say.

"Haha, Toke, where have all your farming minds gone? He's just a butler, even if he's the emperor's boy's butler, he's just a butler, and he's far from a nobleman." It was Benny who was in the same village as Toke. , compared to Tok's cautious and subtle, Benny is the kind of person who is careless and has no scruples.

John also just smiled, and ignored Beanie's rudeness. If he really cares about it, Beanie will definitely die if he dares to say such a thing in front of his face, but John is old and not so murderous.

"Toke, do you know, I have seen the prosperity of the empire and know the meaning of peace, so I stand here."

"What is the meaning of peace?" Tok whispered, "I don't understand."

"Toke, don't listen to the old man talking to you there. He is old and likes to go to class, just listen to it. Hey, by the way, old man, when will the rebels attack the city? Wake us up this night and call people sleepy"

"Beanie, don't talk to Uncle John like that. If other adults hear this, they will whip you hard."

"Haha, it doesn't matter." Old John smiled and was not angry at all. "Little Bini, I think you are quite suitable to be a soldier. How about you come to our Prince's Mansion to be a personal guard for His Highness?"

"Me? As a personal guard? Old man, you are really confused. At my level, I can barely be an ordinary soldier. If I go to your personal guard mansion, I will be laughed at to death. If you don't go, I won't go."

"Bini, the old man likes you very much. It's better to go to the prince's mansion than to farm. If you stay in the city, you will definitely marry a beautiful girl and give birth to a few fat boys for us to play with." Ke obviously envied old John Binny's invitation, but he was not jealous at all. Simple feelings would only make Toke bless Benny
"Gungun, I won't go. There are too many rules and it's dangerous. I heard that none of the prince's guards in Glenburg are left."

"Benny, shut your mouth, don't talk nonsense..."

Old John watched them bickering and didn't say anything. He just looked leisurely at the place where the sun rose in the distance, not knowing who he was missing.

"Everyone check the equipment, oil the artillery, and check the trebuchets one last time. If any trebuchet doesn't work later, I will put your heads on the trebuchet! Quick, quick, quick!" A rough and urgent voice accompanied the morning light. The glimmer of light surrounded the entire rebel formation.

"The siege tower moves forward!" After hearing the order, the person at the bottom of the siege tower began to turn the machine in a circle. Stopped after the position.

Ten siege towers stood there like Titans, and there were dozens more in reserve behind the military formation.Hans rode his horse and slowly moved to the front.

"Everyone, what do you want? Money? Women? Or do you want an official position?!" Hans's voice echoed in the ears of every soldier. If you can be supported to become the commander of the rebels, if nothing else, at least This person's force is adequate.

"You have been ruled by the Roald family for hundreds of years, don't you want to sit in that position? Don't you want to feel the feeling of being an emperor? Don't you want to farm the land all your life and then die in the field?! This There has never been a free lunch in the world, grab what you want! Just grab it!! Use your hands, your swords, and your lives! Break the city in one day, massacre the city in ten days! Break the city in two days , Massacre the city for five days! Break the city in three days, massacre the city for three days!!! The future will be rich and prosperous, or old and dead! It all depends on your efforts!!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Slaughtering the city is the best reward for these robbers. It's okay to be the emperor, but burning, killing, looting, and not having to hand over everything is the most realistic.At this moment, the eyes of the soldiers were red, and this naturally included the soldiers of Middenheim. The empire did not allow such a thing to happen. Now they can finally experience the massacre that is about to become a legend, which makes them very excited.

"Ready!!" As soon as the order came out, the crossbowman artillery and trebuchets all began to load ammunition.

"shoot!!!"

The crossbow bolts of hundreds of people are a bit sparse for the wide city wall, but the mortar and the trebuchet are different. The shells of the mortar follow a parabola, cross the city wall with continuous abnormal noise, and smash into the defenders. In the crowd, although the accuracy is not high, as long as it hits, there will inevitably be a big hole in the crowd, and the severed arms and limbs of the soldiers in the center will be scattered everywhere. This will also have a great mental impact on the soldiers. In such a bloody scene, one after another knelt down and vomited, but before it stopped, the boulders thrown by the trebuchet also followed, and with the whistling sound of the wind, they slammed into the city wall, trembling violently, making everyone The soldier with weak legs was knocked to the ground at once, and the soldier with low tolerance began to run down the city wall, but before taking two steps, he was directly brought into the city wall by a boulder at a precise angle. in the huge pit.War has always been extremely cruel, especially cold weapon wars. Soldiers who ignore orders are often the first to die.

"Hold your head down!" Old John squatted on the edge of the city wall and yelled at the recruits who were shocked, "Stick to the wall and don't stand up without orders!!"

"Yeah, yeah, Uncle John, why don't we, don't fight back?" Tok leaned behind Old John nervously, his hands shaking so much that he could not even speak. Although Bini next to him was also shaking a little, But there was more excitement in his eyes.

"At the end of the siege is a game of melee combat. What's the use of shooting those crossbowmen? Later will be when we will show our power. Although our range is far, bullets will float when fired from such a high city wall. Keep the bullets well. , get closer and fight, now you all just remember one sentence for me, that is, follow my command!! Do you understand!?" Old John has put away the face of a kind old man at this moment, and the breath of war makes this once The Sun Knight is alive again!
"Hmm!" Tork held the rifle in his hands tightly with both hands, his face pale.
