Otherworldly Castle Era
Vol 4 Chapter 135: Invade the enemy country
"What's the matter? Why haven't you attacked the city yet?" Li Jing rode a war horse and finally rushed to the outside of the town. Seeing the army lined up outside the town, he was very puzzled and told the messenger: "Called Di Qing, Yan. Come and see me."
It is reasonable to say that it has been so long and should have entered the small town, but what Li Jing now sees is that the city wall in front of him is still standing there intact despite the blue smoke and some potholes.
"General, his subordinates ordered artillery to bombard the enemy city wall for nearly half an hour, but it was useless. The subordinate suggested deploying siege artillery to come." Di Qing heard Li Jing's order, and Yan Ren rushed to Li Jing's position.
Li Jing heard Di Qing's answer and asked: "Can't it be attacked? Have you ever tried to blow up the city wall with a gunpowder?"
"Go back to the general, tried it." Yan Ren replied by the side: "But there is a big moat outside the enemy city, and the soldiers can't get close to the wall at all."
Then after Li Jing asked a few more questions, he looked at the low wall in front of him and frowned. He didn't expect that Xia Guo's army, which had always been invincible, would be blocked by a small wall.
Li Jing learned from the intelligence department that the city wall of this small town in front of him was built with reference to the city wall of Guihua City. It was very different from the previous city wall of this world which had only a thin layer. The thickness was very thick. No wonder the artillery. Can't open it.
"Haha~, but so, this general has been prepared for this!" After listening to Di Qing and Yan Ren's report, Li Jing laughed and ordered: "Let the militiamen from behind bring the things they prepared."
How could the intelligence of this small town escape Xia Guo's intelligence? It's just that Fulimet's sudden attack made Xia Guo's preparations not fully in place. Otherwise, how could this city wall stop Xia's army?
However, Yang Ren at the rear had already transported the supplies urgently needed by the front army at this time, including tools such as shovel, pickaxe, and sacks. Yang Ren even siege the two brigades of Guihua City under Li Jing’s order. The artillery was also delivered.
Under Li Jing's urging, before dark that day, a total of 60 siege artillery pieces and other materials from the two brigades were transported to the Xiaguo camp in the small town, and the offensive would be officially launched at dawn the next day.
This offense was not only Xia’s repulsion of Fulimet’s invasion, but also a turning point for Xia’s army to formally attack Fulimet, that is, from the defensive stage to the offensive stage.
After a night’s rest, the soldiers of Xia’s army lined up outside the town in vigor, ready to attack.
The opposite of the morale of Xia's army is the army of Fulimet in the town.
First, after a big defeat, and then endured the repeated bombardment of Xia Guo's artillery in the town. If the city wall blocked the artillery bombardment, these soldiers would restore their morale, or they would have abandoned the city and fled.
But after dawn the next day, the soldiers of the Fulimet country found that there were tens of thousands of Xia people outside the town at some unknown time, digging earth and rocks at the foot of the mountain not far away. There was no need for anyone to prompt, all the soldiers of Fulimet knew that Xia Guo was about to fill the moat outside the town.
Is this okay? If Xia Jun were to fill in the moat, wouldn't their difficulty in defending the city increase exponentially? But they had no choice but to watch the moat outside the city quickly fill up.
After seeing this, Polant was preparing to let the soldiers shoot arrows at the Xia Jun who was filling the soil below, but before he could say this, he was shocked by a series of loud noises outside the town and jumped off the city wall.
They are very familiar with this voice. This is the very powerful weapon called artillery of Xia Guo. If he ran down the city wall one step further, he might be the same as other soldiers in Fulimet. , Was buried in the sea of fire at the head of the city.
Xia Guo should have allowed the militia to fill the soil. He must have been prepared. Basically, the artillery suppressed the city’s head and even the siege artillery that had just arrived last night was involved.
The power of siege artillery is not comparable to that of field artillery, but it is specially created for siege. The strong kinetic energy of the solid iron egg carrier hits the wall one after another, even the thick wall can’t help it. Shook up.
In less than an hour, some clearly visible cracks appeared on the city wall that was bombarded, and then it got bigger and bigger, until at some point, the city wall could no longer stand it and collapsed.
This section of the collapsed city wall was not only part of the attack by the siege artillery, but when the moat was filled, it also withstood multiple rounds of gunpowder blasting. It was able to hold on to this high-intensity attack for such a long time. The walls of the town are already strong enough.
After a whole morning attack, finally waiting for the city wall to collapse, Li Jing couldn't wait to order: "Enter the city!"
The next battle was much simpler. Soldiers lined up and attacked the city from the collapsed wall. As for why they didn’t attack from the city gate, it was because Poland ordered the city gate to be blocked long ago. The thickness of the gate is not as quick as launching an attack from the wall next to it.
The warriors of Xia Kingdom crossed the filled moat, stepped over the collapsed city wall, and attacked the city easily from the ruins. When the soldiers entered the city, they realized that there was no resistance at all, and the whole city was completely empty.
A few hours ago, when Polant discovered that the number of Xia troops had more than doubled and was still filling the moat, he knew that the town could no longer be defended, so he ordered his knights to lead soldiers to continue the defense , He fled the city with his guards and cronies.
Since the head coach of Polant has escaped, how can the officers and soldiers underneath continue to hold on? Therefore, as soon as Polant ran away, the soldiers in the back fled with heels.
In fact, Polish special does not run away, the soldiers defending this town will take the lead to escape ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is only Polish special's behavior that makes this process staged in advance.
After successive defeats, the morale of Fulimet’s army has already fallen to the bottom, and the increase in the number of the Xia’s army, and the imposing momentum, have completely lost the last trace of reason and courage in the Fulimet’s army. Only the desire to escape from the instinct is down.
So when the soldiers of Xia Kingdom stepped into the town, this place had already become an empty city.
"Escaped?" When Li Jing learned that he was only occupying an empty city, he was both pleasantly surprised and somewhat lost. He was pleasantly surprised that the battle ended without any damage. What was lost was that such a great effort was wasted. Did not kill many enemies.
Li Jing's thoughts only existed in his mind for a few seconds. In response to this situation, he immediately ordered: "The whole army is attacking, and the target is Nanshan City."
When Xia's army continued to attack Nanshan City, the capital of Fulimet, Lu Su suddenly ran to Li Jing's side and said with his fists, "General, what's the name for that city just now?"
In Xia, there are specific names for the place names in the world, some are transliteration, some are free translation, and some are not well translated and have specific meanings. Xia Guo chooses his own name.
The small town just now was the last one, so Lu Su asked Li Jing about the name.
After thinking about Lu Su's question, Li Jing said: "This city is the largest town outside Shanhaiguan, so call it'Pingguan City'!"
