Rise In Calradia

"For the first time, I look forward to dark so much."

At the head of Fort Amila after the war, a Rhodok skilled spearman leaned on his spear and leaned tiredly against the wall.

"Yeah, if it wasn't for the darkening of the sky, they would definitely continue to attack the city, and then we might not be able to defend the wall."

The sergeant beside him nodded and sighed helplessly. As a veteran, he knows how to defend against the enemy on the wall, but he also knows that if the opponent's offensive like today continues for a few more hours, they may lose the outer wall if they are exhausted. The opponent's forces are much more than them, and they can attack the city in shifts, but if they don't all go all out, they will not be able to resist the opponent's fierce offensive. Today, they can also be divided into classes to take a break, but when their number is low, how can they resist?

The sergeant thought about these things and looked sad. He had nothing to do except hope that the reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible. But Lord Lord has led his army away, Garmizi Castle's garrison... I don't know if they can dispatch manpower here to support.

The soldiers gathered around him and picked up the stew delivered by the women in the city. No matter what, they had some warm food, cabbage, beans, and fat, hoping to supplement the physical strength they had consumed today.

They talked about their own affairs, drank soup and ate meat, prayed for the soldiers who died today, and prayed for themselves.

The tired soldier was the fastest to eat and drink before. He was too tired and wanted to rest early. So he leaned against the wall to sleep with the touch of his mouth. Tonight he will have to watch the night, and he hopes to rest for a while before the night watch.

But before the sleepiness swept through his brain, people's shouts woke him up, he squinted his eyes and saw a little light.

"It's a huge cremation for the war dead." He thought of this, and closed his eyes again.

But soon, he realized that it was wrong. He was familiar with the position of the light. It was... the barn! It's the barn!

The quantitative spearman stood up immediately and found that everyone around him was yelling. He immediately took two steps forward and opened his eyes vigorously. Sure enough, just as he was worried, the castle's barn burned. There was a big fire, and the flames went straight to the roof and seeped from all sides. There were panicked soldiers and residents everywhere. They were carrying buckets and shouting loudly, trying their best to put out the fire.

"We have to put out the fire!" The soldier was terrified. Even he knew that the barn contained the food from today's autumn harvest. If the barn could not be kept, they would lose their food source and could not survive the long siege. Depleted.

"No, don't mess around! Those who leave their posts without authorization will be severely punished!"

However, at this time, the sergeant stopped him and issued a loud order, asking the soldiers at the head of the city not to panic, let alone allowing them to leave their duties without authorization. He did want to fight the fire when he discovered the fire, but he quickly responded. They had no omissions in the management of this barn, which was related to the safety of the fortress, and it was impossible to find out when the fire became so big. The fire in that barn was obviously not burning gradually, but someone deliberately set fire to the barn and the roof at the same time, which made the fire so big.

This must be the enemy's trick, and there must be their spies in the fortress!

Most of the soldiers stopped, and looked at the sergeant suspiciously. The sergeant opened his mouth, just about to explain the situation to them and order to strengthen their defenses, the explosion of gunpowder came from the other side of the city. An accident happened in the direction of the west. Hundreds of Byron’s elite infantry blasted open the gate of the west city. The city launched an attack.

"Someone moved the winch! The iron door of the west gate was opened!"

The panicked voice brought a terrible news. Simon’s enemies entered the city through the Urn City through the iron gate opened by Nei Ying. From their side, they could already see the torch held by the enemy and the Nords in the distance. The round shield in the hands of people is gone.

"We can't trade, we must stand firm and we can't lose the front door..."

Before the sergeant's words were finished, he was exposed to the fire and struck a crossbow bolt in his neck. This steel-headed crossbow was fired by Bandak with a powerful siege crossbow, and it penetrated it at once. The chain armor on the neck of a sergeant tore the muscles and penetrated the trachea. The sergeant was speechless, but he still struggled a few times, and the soldiers next to him hurriedly came to rescue, but when they held the sergeant's body, the other party had died.

The soldiers panicked immediately. The count took away most of the officers when he left. At this time, there were few people in the fortress army who could command at all, except for the count’s cronies who were in charge of unified command in the main fortress. The next few sergeants. Now that their sergeant died, there was no commander at the front gate for a while, and the soldiers suddenly fell into chaos. As a last resort, the spearman himself as the deputy took over the command, but he did not know what to do when facing support or guarding the city wall. In the end, he simply divided the troops on the city wall into two halves, and half continued to guard the city. Head, the other half went to Xicheng to support.

He felt that his decision had taken care of both sides at the same time, but when the torches outside the city began to attack again, and an unknown number of enemies began to attack again, he began to worry about whether he could hold the city head.

The armies of the two sides started fighting in the dark ~www.readwn.com~ But because the dark sides were not fighting smoothly, the attacking side not only always fell into the trenches, but also became chaotic because of the confusion of the direction. However, the troops on the wall also encountered many problems. In the darkness, few people except those experienced crossbowmen could shoot the target. In the end, most of the crossbowmen simply dropped their crossbow arrows and raised their military **** into close combat. The enemies who had climbed to the head of the city wrestled with darkness.

As for how many friendly forces were accidentally injured by both sides in this battle, and how many people were knocked down in the chaos, it is impossible to count.

But what is certain is that after the chaos inside the fortress, the balance of victory fell to Byron's side. Although there were many mistakes, a steady stream of soldiers attacked the city head, conquered the city head with an overwhelming advantage, and entered the city.

The mercenary halberds of the Nord troops and the logging team in the direction of the West City have achieved good results. Nord’s shield wall blocked the attack of the Rhodoks and the residents of the city, while the halberds continued to chop behind the shields to slash the enemy. Chopped over. Not long after, they facilitated the confluence of the troops coming from the front wall.

But in this chaos, a figure quietly bypassed the crowd and left the fortress. If someone could see her through the dim firelight at this time, they would be surprised to find that the shadow was actually a young girl, but her face was not half childish.
