Rise In Calradia

Chapter 336: : Defence Battle of Dherim (6)

"The Kurgit on the east wall rushed up again, sending everyone from the Rhodok infantry company on, and must guard the wall!"

In the castle, Elaine walked through the hall quickly, pushed open the door to the messenger outside the door shouting to convey Byron's order, and the messenger did not dare to stop after hearing it clearly, and charged at the fastest speed. Go out and pass the order to the Rodok Company that is repairing in the city.

"Dongcheng District must be defended. Our heavy city defense equipment and arrow reserves are all located in Dongcheng District. Once the city wall is lost to the city and the city falls, we will not be able to withstand the siege weapons of the Kurgits." He paced, thinking about how to deal with the increasingly stronger offensive of the Kujites.

From the time when the prairie people built the soil bridge, they have maintained a fierce siege battle for five days, and their attack range has changed from three sides feinting and one main attack to the current four sides of the city gates taking turns attacking, and each attack will dispatch thousands of people, once The defenders in the city moved more, and other city gates would immediately launch a large-scale attack, leaving the defenders in the city running back and forth, exhausted.

"What did Lord Byron say?" Seeing Eleon coming out, Ressarit immediately leaned over and asked.

"The same way, stick to the city wall, don't let the Kujit break into the city." Eleon said helplessly.

"It's easier said than done." Ressarit shook his head. At this moment, a rock flew into the city from the other side of the city, flew over many people's heads, and then hit the street. .

"Damn it, find two more Swadian sergeants to take someone over. The southern gate was attacked, and those prairie folks also built stone throwers in the southern part of the city!"

Byron's troops went to the wall to support them one by one. Count Cles' troops were struggling to support there, but they still couldn't stop the endless attack of the Kurgits. The Kurgits filled the moat for a long period of time and attacked the city with heavy siege weapons. Although they have not attacked the city so far, the distance they have advanced has increased.

This time when the Rhodok infantry company arrived near the city wall, they found that the Kujites had already rushed down from the city wall. The city wall was already in chaos, and the defenses at multiple locations had been breached.

"Stop them, don't let them into the city!" The soldiers in charge of the support immediately rushed to block the Khergit invaders, as they had done every time before, drove these people back to the city wall, and then sent them back. Push back.

Dehrim’s city defense war continued. More than 20,000 Kugits looted the surrounding area while constantly trying to attack the city. Dehrim is now in urgent need of support, but the support troops have been unable to arrive. .

The good news is that the supply in the city is still sufficient, because the doctors in the city and Byron brought doctors and apprentices and female soldiers who can first aid, so not many died, but the bad news is that the wounded who were unable to fight have already lain in more than a dozen rooms.

Earl Kleis has begun to recruit citizens to participate in the war. De Herim thrives on trade. The citizens are generally wealthy. They usually wear weapons, helmets and shields, and some can even afford chain armor. The peasants who fled into the city also carried flail, and when it was not possible, even they would be called up to defend the city wall.

"what!!"

There was another wailing, and the boiling oil in the cauldron was dumped from the top of the city. The Kujites on the long ladder blistered all over the hot body, howling and falling from the ladder, smashing the people underneath. Go down.

Obviously, the defenders regained the initiative after the support arrived. The shield wall of the Nord Company defeated a few Khergit troops under the wall. After that, Olaf led a large group of beards with big axes in Rodo. The Kerlian team drove the opponent back to the wall before arriving.

The two sides fought on the wall for another half an hour, and finally they successfully counterattacked the opponent's ladder truck, brought firewood and set fire to the ladder, making the subsequent Khergit soldiers had to retreat.

The battle in the east of the city was victorious, but the battle in the north of the city was not over yet. During this period of time, the Kujites continued to construct and fill the earth frantically. They built an earthen mountain outside the city, filled a section of the moat, and buried the **** up to the wall, half the height of the city wall. If they were allowed to continue, sooner or later they would be able to bury the **** on top of the city wall and ride the war horse against the wall.

The main battlefield in the north of the city has moved from the city’s head to the slope. The people under the city climbed up, and the people in the city also climbed down on the **** with ladders to fight against each other. The two sides refused to give way to each other. This soil **** is one level higher. Under the cover of the city's bow and crossbowmen, the defending soldiers can always drive away the taller soldiers who are trying to push the soil. The continuous victories made these soldiers multiply their confidence. They even rushed down the **** to try to drive the enemy back, but this behavior was quickly stopped by the sergeants, losing the cover from the city head and the limit on the number of people on the slope. Thousands of enemy soldiers committed suicide.

However, this adventurous offensive has made some progress in the short term. When the Khergits tried to retake the **** and continue their offensive, Earl Kleis personally came, wearing armor and leading his knights to kill himself in the city. A Kujit hundred households died, and his head was beheaded. He also brought the **** Haitulu Qianhu to the head of the city, blocking his mouth so that he would not say anything to boost the morale of the enemy. The earl pushed him to the front, cut off one of his whips in front of the people under the city, and threw it down.

"Although you attack, your thousand households will become our captives, and your fate will be the same as him! You can go home alive, or die in our hands, with your heads hung on the wall. Remember, Si Wadia will not succumb to you!"

Watching the Khan’s beloved Thousand Households being pushed to the forefront, Kujit’s archers did not dare to shoot arrows rashly, while the heavy infantry tried hard to rescue the Haitulu Thousand Households, but faced fourteen. Fully armed and skilled knights and a small group of infantry sergeants, as well as the falling crossbow arrows, they are naturally not opponents. The morale of the Kurgits was greatly affected, they were forced to retreat, and the Earl of Kleis would be killed. The heads of the dead hundred households and those of the Kujites who were killed were chopped off and hung around the city wall. There were more than three hundred, which once again hit the morale of the attackers under the city.

The scene of Earl Claes fighting in the city also greatly encouraged the morale of the military and the people. The people in the city cheered and blessed the lord who returned to the castle full of blood. Some male citizens and fleeing peasants voluntarily joined the battle or They went to transport supplies and arrow stones for the army, and the women went to the area where the wounded were to take care of them, cook and feed them.

Everything is moving in a good direction, and people are full of confidence in winning, until early the next morning, the large stone throwers of the Kujites were completed. In fact, people have long been prepared for the counterweight stone throwing machines that are larger than the city, but they never expected that the other party would not throw the stones in their imagination, but...

A large number of fresh heads taken from local farmers, and a dozen or so stinking dead cows, were thrown over, and the maggots on the dead meat fell to the ground.

....

On the other side, in the Amiral Fort in the south, the mistress of the castle, Mrs. Nelda, stood on the throne of Byron, supported by the maid, listening to Fatis’ report. .

"My Excellency, I must report to you that Count Leyland of Garmizi and his brother, Count Tazias, the former owner of this castle, have assembled a force and are moving towards us." Tis said solemnly.

"Your Excellency, I am a woman, it is inconvenient to say anything about it. But I hope you can tell me that I can trust you and you can protect me, my future children, and the people of Amila." Nair Tatsu said in a soft but difficult tone.

"Our spies told us that they have more than 500 heavily armed soldiers and about 250 drafted militiamen. We have more people than them, but most of them are local militiamen who lack training and have never been on the battlefield. There are also 80 cavalry, 150 local crossbowmen, and two sergeant infantry teams in the castle, we are enough to defend the city, but they may plunder villages outside the city~www.readwn.com~ contact those who once attached to them The owner of the manor, forcing the past leaders to return to support them..." Fatis's words were obviously not optimistic.

"Your Excellency, Chief Defense Officer, I can understand every word you say, but I still want to ask you, are you sure to protect me, my future children, and my husband's people?" Nelda Repeated it again and asked very seriously.

Fattis was stunned for a moment, and he spoke for a while without speaking. Then he suddenly understood something, knelt on one knee, and solemnly promised: "My honorable lady, I promise you that I will protect you and you. For the safety of the children in the future, I will protect the territory of your noble husband, my beloved lord, Earl Byron from encroachment, and protect his people from being threatened by foreign enemies. I assure you that we will win this War! I will defeat them and dedicate victory to you!"

"I believe in you, Lord Fatis." A smile appeared on Nelda's face: "As I said, I am a woman and I am pregnant. I am inconvenient to interfere too much. But I believe in my husband. , He trusts you and entrusts his territory to you to take care of, and I will also believe in your ability. I will give the army full power to your commander in command." Nelda got up a little and saluted Fatis, and then went to the maid’s Supported and returned to the interior of the castle.

"Have a heavy duty, Fatis Randall." After Mrs. Nelda left, Fatis sighed and said to himself: "Father, please, this battle is our last laugh."
