Lord of Riders
Chapter 52: Run out of food
The continent of Calradia has recently been raged by wars. The Kingdom of Rhodok ended its war with the Sultanate of Salander and pulled out to declare war on the Kingdom of Swadia. The Kingdom of Swadia has been weakened in the long war. Now Facing the invasion of the two countries has been very difficult, the loss of troops has reached more than 20,000 people, and the northeastern territories such as Dherim City, Uxhall, Fort Lundia, and Fort Rendi fell one after another.
The Nord Kingdom in the northwest is also restless, frequently mobilizing troops, and eager to move towards the Kingdom of Swadia. Nowadays, except for the Salander Sultanate, which has just ended the war, only the Kingdom of Virginia is relatively peaceful. Therefore, the war between Shao Yu and the Rodela family has naturally become the focus of the Kingdom of Virginia.
"My lord, the enemy is coming this time fiercely, I don't know if Mamuen can persuade Rodella to retreat"
Inside Schulesburg, Cusa said worriedly
"Hmph, Rodela will never retreat, I will establish my rule through the war with Rodela family" Shao Yu listened to a cold snort and said confidently
"But now the number of enemy troops has increased to 1,200, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to deal with them," Cusa said
"Report your lord, the sentry report, the enemy is moving towards us." Before Cusa finished speaking, the soldier ran in and said
Shao Yu led the soldiers to the top of the city. Rodela's army had already advanced to a place less than two miles away from Schulers.
At the beginning is the Vegia senior soldier, followed by the large-scale light infantry. Behind them are the archers holding the formation, and the cavalry units lined up on both sides of the formation.
Rodella pushed up all the troops except those recruits. An army of nearly 1,100 people. From a distance, a large army is densely packed.
"My lord, what should I do" the soldier asked from the side
"Huh, the ancient book says that the ten siege is doubled to fight. The enemy is only as large as our army, and it is a siege war. What are you afraid of?" Shao Yu said indifferently
"Coosa, let the order go on, order all the cavalry to attack the enemy camp, don’t leave them a grain of grain," Shao Yu ordered.
"Yes, sir, I will personally lead the army to go" Cusa agreed and led the troops out of Schulersburg.
More than a hundred cavalrymen under the leadership of Cusa avoided the main force of Rodela’s army and went straight to Rodela’s barracks. In just a quarter of an hour, Cusa’s cavalry smashed to Rodela’s barracks.
The recruits who were on vacation in the rear saw a large number of cavalry who thought they were their own people, but when they got closer, they realized that it was an enemy attack. The recruits hurriedly organized a resistance, but how these recruits were the opponents of these cavalry, Cusa took the lead, and the soldiers who had cut the gate directly led the army in.
The recruits fought hard, but the disparity in strength was too great. The recruits only resisted for less than a quarter of an hour, and almost all the casualties were exhausted. According to Shao Yu's orders, Kussa scoured all the army's military rations of Rodela, and took part of the smoked fish and bacon that could be taken away. The rest was burned together with the camp.
On Shao Yu's side, the two sides had already started fighting. Under the cover of the archers, the infantry launched an attack on Schulesburg. More than two hundred archers fired volleys, and this battle was not at the same level as the battle with Ma Muen.
The Vegia veteran soldier held a shield and marched forward. The zither-shaped shield of the Vegia veteran soldier can guard half of his body. Most of the arrows of the defending soldier hit the shield. It is difficult to cause any damage to these soldiers. But the shields couldn't prevent too many arrows. After several rounds of arrows rained, the shields of these veteran Vigia soldiers were also shot to failure. The shields that were not damaged by the shot also became fragmented.
Those militiamen had used up their arrows a long time ago and left the defense sequence. Only one hundred Vigia guerrilla shooters and two hundred archers under Eleon could continue to fight. Without the protection of the shield, the casualties of the Vigia soldiers suddenly increased. After two more rounds of arrow rain, the casualties of the Vigia soldiers reached hundreds. But the casualties of the defenders are also not small. Although there is a low wall, the people who shoot Shao Yu will immediately hide after each round of shooting. However, under the attack of Rodela’s guerrilla shooters, Shao Yu also has nearly a hundred people. Casualties.
Rodela’s army has arrived under the city wall and put the siege ladder on the wall.
"Infantrymen go up to the city wall and prepare to meet the enemy!" Shao Yu immediately ordered the infantry to climb the city. Shao Yu mobilized two hundred infantrymen under Cusa to defend the city. One hundred Virginia light infantry and one hundred senior soldiers assisted. The archer defended the city.
Rodela’s archers have stopped shooting, and such a long distance will inevitably injure himself.
However, Shao Yu didn't have to think about this issue at all. The soldiers who climbed into the city were only a few meters away, and they could shoot them even with their eyes closed.
The casualties of the siege soldiers suddenly increased. After three rounds of shooting, the Rodela’s casualties reached nearly 300, but their arrows were basically exhausted. Only a few dozen guerrilla shooters can continue to fight.
A hundred of Eleon’s soldiers were equipped with shields and swords. Most of them were snatched from bandits and transferred from Cusa. Those who used up their arrows could only temporarily withdraw from the battle~www.wuxiaspot. com~Wait for the soldiers in the city to die before going to continue fighting with their weapons.
There are still three hundred infantrymen in the city, and more than seventy Virginia guerrilla shooters.
Rodela’s troops had not yet reached the city, and the infantry casualties were almost halfway there. Fortunately, the archers under Shao Yu basically lost their combat effectiveness. Rodela’s army set up more than 30 siege ladders and began to climb the city. Also drew out the saber and attacked the city with the infantry.
"My lord, my lord, it's okay." Rodela was commanding the siege, and a small soldier suddenly ran over to Rodela in a panic.
"What's wrong?" Rodela asked
"My lord, our camp was attacked by the rebellion, the remaining soldiers were wiped out, and the army was taken away by the enemy" the soldier reported to Rodela
"Abominable, cunning enemy, we must destroy them today, and the whole army will charge." Rodela was furious and ordered the whole army to attack.
Rodela put all the troops into the siege sequence in one breath, and the cavalry must be ready for the siege.
Schulesburg is located in the southeast border, in a remote place, there are no other villages nearby, and it takes a whole day to return to Kudan. If Schules cannot be captured, then the rations of these soldiers will be a big problem, and they will have to retreat at that time.
Rodella finally decided to make a desperate move, pressing all the soldiers on and taking down Schulesburg.
At the forefront are the most elite senior soldiers, followed by light infantry. The offensive and defensive sides fought fiercely for five hours, and Rodela's senior soldiers were basically killed or wounded. The number of casualties reached five hundred, and the huge casualties caused the morale of Rodela's army to be low.
The situation on Shao Yu's side is also not much better. Almost a hundred light infantrymen and dozens of guerrilla shooters were killed, and Elaine's more than one hundred infantrymen also suffered more than half of the casualties.
