Rise of the Empire Total War

No one knows what was discussed between Richard and Prince Gaia, but after Prince Gaia returned to the army, he directly ordered the entire army to unite with the Ravana to besiege the city of Yajik together.

At the same time, Richard also let Pabala, who was pretending to attack the east gate of Yaquik City, evacuate the barracks and give up the position to the new allies.

Many people in Richard's army were deeply surprised and skeptical about the joining of this Ramirez army. The Mirees people, if you don't know it, turn your guns and come to a wave of anti-Ravana national united front.

Regarding the suspicious voices in the army, Richard kept silent. Although he didn't have complete trust in Gaia, he didn't believe that he would reunite with Croft who had taken his throne. In this era when nationalism was not even born, the nobles valued their own interests more than the so-called national interests.

And Richard just gave Gaia enough profit prospects. As long as Gaia is smart enough, he will not betray the agreement reached with Richard and turn against the latter.

Compared to defeating Richard hand in hand and continuing the siege battle where it is impossible to win, Gaia should choose to attack the royal capital hand in hand with Richard. According to the agreement reached by the two, after the fall of Aquique, Gaia only needs to allow Richard to plunder the city for five days to gain control of the city.

This was also proposed by Richard after careful consideration. Anyway, Yajik City is not a city that can be easily ruled. Richard might as well plunder to obtain a lot of wealth, and then take the initiative to retreat.

...

Amid the doubts in the army, the Gaia army who took over the position at the East Gate launched an attack on the city with the siege equipment left by Pabala. This was a bloodier battle. It is the army serving the legal heir. Although the soldiers on both sides are from Ramirez, they are merciless, as if they are fighting with the enemy, cruel and bloody.

Attack! For Your Highness Gaia!

The mournful roar of the officers resounded over the battlefield at the East Gate. Soldiers loyal to Prince Gaia rushed towards the tall and solid city wall like a tide. From time to time, soldiers were shot down by arrows, and fell powerlessly in the snow, letting their own blood stain the snow.

Archers, at an elevation angle of 45°, dense salvo!

The archers of the defending army were outputting wildly, and the archers of the Gaia army outside the city started to fight back at will. Under the shout of the officer, the archers drew their bows and drew their arrows. After receiving the shooting order, their fingers hooked on the bow strings were reflexively released.

There was only a sound of the bowstring vibrating, and then a rain of black arrows rose into the sky, drawing arcs in midair and falling into the city wall.

The rain of arrows that fell into the city wall immediately overturned a group of defenders who hadn't had time to escape. Some arrows even flew over the city wall and shot directly into the city, shooting some unlucky civilians who were still running around in the street.

The volleys of more Gaia archers suppressed the firepower of the city wall defenders. The latter could only hide behind the solid wall and shiver, unable to stand up and fight back for a while. Taking advantage of this time, the infantry pushing the siege equipment rushed to the bottom of the city wall and set up a rough ladder on the city wall. Then, the soldiers raised their shields above their heads to defend against possible attacks and began to attack the city The most common ant attach in the war.

In order not to accidentally injure friendly troops, the Gai Yajun archers stopped shooting. In fact, the continuous high-intensity shooting has already made their arms sore, and the arrows they shot have also lost their aim. If they continue to shoot, I am afraid By the next day, most of them would not be able to draw their bows.

The defenders of Yajik, who had lost their fire suppression, stood up one after another as if they were amnesty, and greeted all the weapons to the Gaia soldiers who were climbing the city wall, as if they wanted to spread all the anger that had just been suppressed on the enemy infantry. However, the shields raised by the Gaia infantry blocked most of the attacks very well. After being attacked, the shields they held only shook, and then continued to climb up.

Seeing this situation, the defending officer promptly ordered the soldiers in front to retreat and retreat behind the shield formation composed of shield-bearing infantry. , the infantry in this world basically have such equipment), they put the big shield in front of them, put the spear on the gap between the shield and the shield, and aim at the ladder directly in front of them.

Under the common gaze of the defenders, the first brave Gaia soldier climbed up the city wall and protruded half of his body from the wall. However, before he cheered, several spears pierced out at the same time, piercing the city instantly. Several transparent holes were opened on his upper body. The expression on the soldier's face slowly froze, with an unbelievable expression. Then, the spear was pulled out at the same time, and he fell from the city wall without support. , and crushed several soldiers below to death.

The bloody fight on the wall of the east gate gradually kicked off, while on the other side of the south gate, the direction of Richard's main attack was also engaged in a brutal fight. Relying on the more advanced siege towers, Richard's army rushed up the city wall and fell into hand-to-hand combat with the defenders who were waiting in full battle. In addition to the imperial army, the Danes with stronger fighting power were also thrown into battle. The Nordic men holding sharp long swords or equipped with strangely shaped long swords and spears chanted slogans, setting off a bloody fog among the crowd.

The heat emitted from the people melted the snow on the city wall, and the snow mixed with the blood splashed from the humans flowed in the gaps between the stones, and finally merged into puddles of blood, and the soldiers kept fighting. Stepping heavily on the puddles, splashing water flowers.

Hiss!

During the scuffle, the Danish soldier whose helmet had long disappeared was like an angry polar bear, roaring loudly. His hair was disheveled, and the tomahawk in his hand was stained with blood, and even broken pieces of meat could be seen. This Nordic tomahawk cavalry on foot fought hard Slashing at the arm of an enemy who intended to attack him, the arm without any armor protection broke off immediately, with the warm blood sprayed, the defender who lost his arm immediately screamed and half-kneeled on the ground, clutching the exposed bones In his horrified and desperate eyes, the terrifying tomahawk raised again, and then slashed heavily, it actually split the top of his head directly, and then went all the way down until it split his crotch just stopped.

The viscous and disgusting internal organs were sprinkled on the blood-stained city wall, causing people to slip and fall when stepping on them. The walking Nordic battleaxe cavalry didn't care. He bent down and took out the heart that was still beating slightly in the chest cavity of the corpse, and opened his mouth to bite it down. , Feeling the strong smell of blood bursting in his mouth, he let out a chilling roar like a wild beast!
