Rise of the Empire Total War

Soldiers of the Empire, today we will fight against the city!

Richard held his saber high, stood in front of the army formation, and said loudly.

Before us is Bundak and his evil allies - the vile usurper Jutian from the Kingdom of Winster! Six years ago, Jutian launched a vile rebellion and killed my parents, To seize the kingdom that should belong to me, and today, he joined forces with Bandak to try to destroy us, warriors of the empire, can you sit back and watch the enemy offend your beloved emperor?

No! We can't!

Hearing the angry shouts of the soldiers, Richard grabbed the reins in his hand, comforted the horses under his crotch, and continued: The enemy's number is far higher than ours, but this is of no use. In the eyes of the fearless imperial people, they Their weapons, their numbers, their armor and their horses, will all be insignificant.

But you, including me, may not live to see the sun set today, and I will be at the forefront with you. But please keep in mind that the highest honor a man can achieve is not becoming a nobleman from a lowly person, but living for being brave and dying for defending the country.

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

Before Richard finished speaking, the soldiers shouted loudly. They waved their weapons and beat their shields with their swords to vent their emotions.

When the soldiers gradually calmed down, Richard paused, and then said: I want to tell you the truth that every soldier has understood since the beginning of the world. As long as you overcome fear, I guarantee you will overcome death!

Looking at the soldiers who were shouting because of Richard's motivational words in the distance, Jutian frowned, but continued to watch.

...I swear to you that one day your sons and grandsons will look you in the eyes and ask how we fought bravely in Belland, and you will answer them with great spiritual strength:' On this day, I am in Belland, fighting for the glory of the empire and the dignity of the emperor!'”

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

Shocking cheers rang out again. Under the cheers of the soldiers, Richard tightened the reins, and the horse suffered pain in his crotch, and immediately rose up with manpower. Richard pointed his long sword high into the sky and roared: God is with us! !

...

attack!

Woo--

With the dull sound of the horn,

The two armies advanced slowly, and there was a roar of artillery on the city wall from time to time, and the solid shells roared and fell heavily into the coalition army formation, grinding out bloody roads. Under the handsome flag, you will be surprised to find that Richard, who claimed to be at the forefront with the soldiers, has disappeared. So where did he go?

Your Majesty Caesar, all the cavalry are ready to accept your command!

Outside another city gate, Richard who rushed over directly took over the assembled cavalry and took Sir Frank's command position. Hearing Sir Frank's report, Richard nodded, and then glanced at the assembled cavalry again. There are more than 1,400 cavalry, they are all the cavalry in Richard's army, not only the heavy cavalry chivalrous knights in armor, feudal knights and early general guards, but also the incomparably brave Nordic tomahawk cavalry, as well as Wind scout cavalry and crossbow cavalry.

Knights, you don't need to say words of encouragement thousands of times. A true warrior only needs one word to bravely raise his arms and go to the battlefield. I will personally rush to the forefront with you and win the final victory with you!

For the Empire!

All the knights shouted in unison, pulled out their swords around their waists, held them flat in front of them, and then kissed the blade of the sword lightly with their lips.

Let's go! Open the city gate!

Sir Frank shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy gate of Bell City slowly opened, revealing the scenery outside. Richard took the lead and rode out first, followed by Sir Frank and the early general guards. A number of cavalry walked out of the city quietly like a long dragon, except for the sound of horseshoes stamping on the ground and the neighing of war horses, there was no other sound.

And at this moment, on the frontal battlefield on the other side, both armies entered the range of the archers of the other side. Under the hissing and roaring of the officers, rounds of black arrows flew into the air from the army formation. After drawing a graceful arc in mid-air, it fell into the advancing enemy army formation. After shooting the arrows, it was too late to check the results of their battles. The archers then drew the arrows from the quiver, drew the arrows with the bow, and released a new round of salvo under the command of the officer.

Although the archers of Richard's army were shooting in formation behind the melee infantry, their vision was blocked by the broad back of the front robe and the shield, but they followed the officer's order to complete the shooting. This pair of archers who have experienced many wars experienced It's not impossible.

Although the consecutive waves of arrow rain were not as exaggerated as covering the sky and covering the sun, the lethality of them should not be underestimated. Each wave of salvos can overwhelm enemy soldiers without shields. Almost every second, soldiers from both sides The arrow fell down, and the scarlet blood flowed out from the wound, staining the ground red.

The roar of the artillery on the city wall behind them still sounded, but it was not as dense as before. The continuous shelling severely consumed the gunpowder storage of the unit, and they were forced to slow down the firing frequency.

shooting!

When the coalition forces entered the optimal range for the crossbowmen of Richard's army, the crossbowmen equipped with powerful crossbowmen emerged from the shield wall erected by the melee infantry one after another, raised the crossbowmen horizontally, pulled the trigger, and shot The deadly crossbow, the crossbow with the armor-piercing effect flew at low altitude and high speed, and fell into the running coalition army formation after a few seconds. The crossbow penetrated the shields they were holding and instantly shot down the front Infantry, bring up bloody flowers.

buzz buzz --

The unique strange sound of the crossbow salvo rang out on the battlefield one after another. Staring at the deadly storm unleashed by the crossbowmen, the running coalition soldiers suffered heavy casualties. They were horrified to find that the solid shield could not resist the enemy's arrows, and Regardless of wearing leather armor or chain mail, in the face of this close-range ballista volley, there is only one tragic end.

Finally, braving the powerful firepower of Richard's army, the coalition soldiers finally rushed to a place only a dozen meters away from the opponent, and they could even see the expressionless faces of Richard's army soldiers hiding behind their shields!

However, at this moment, only an unintelligible word (in German) sounded from behind the formation of Richard's army, and then things in the shape of clay pots were thrown out one by one, but these things in the shape of clay pots did not look like The soldiers hit the shields and shattered them as expected, but an explosion occurred above the crowd, and there were only a series of explosions that almost made people's ears ring. They shook to the end one after another, but the fragments killed them like hidden weapons.

Here is a simple gunpowder weapon made by Richard during the siege - soil grenade! \u003c/div\u003e
