Rise of the Empire Total War

On January 5th, 1117 in the continental calendar, Fort Miglen in the Kingdom of Miganis.

It's time to come.

On the city wall, a slightly old voice sounded, but it quickly dissipated with the wind and disappeared in the bitter cold wind.

Outside the city, flags with yellow double-headed eagles painted on a black background fluttered in the wind. It was very spectacular at first glance. The soldiers all held their heads high and their morale high. look.

Ring the bell and prepare to fend off the enemy!

The old voice sounded again, and as soon as he finished speaking, a soldier rang the warning bell hanging on the city tower. Then, a series of bells sounded quickly, echoed over the city tower, and spread to the ears of the residents in the city. Everyone became nervous as if they were facing a big enemy, and the civilians on the street also hurriedly ran, fearing that the enemy would invade the city in the next second.

And those Winster soldiers hiding in the dark seemed to hear the sound of nature, and they all became agitated. How could they not know what the meaning of this round of bells represented? Their army must have come here!

Our army is here, we are saved!

Yes! God bless, we finally don't have to live this kind of life like mice!

The soldiers were almost weeping with joy. Regardless of the smell on each other's body, they hugged each other tightly, whispering in their mouths.

There were still remaining soldiers in the city, but Magnus didn't know about it. He looked at the Miganis army who had already prepared to deal with it, and ordered the soldiers to build a siege camp on the spot, and at the same time cut down nearby trees to build siege equipment. The trees were solid in appearance and fragile in quality, so they were not suitable for making siege equipment. The soldiers cut down several trees in a row and broke several tools.

In desperation, they had no choice but to build a siege camp first, then search for the surrounding villages, and directly dismantle the farm tools, and use the dismantled materials to make siege equipment. Not only that, but Magnus also wrote to Richard to report the difficulties here and ask for assistance - he knew very well in his heart that in the case of a disadvantaged number, he only needed to bring the artillery of the First Army to assist in the siege , the loss can be minimized.

Magnus did not expect that, a few days later, his messenger arrived in Bennett City, and after delivering the letter to Richard, the young king directly changed his original plan of returning to the Duchy of Fair and decided to personally conquest Mi Kingdom of Ganesh, meet this otherworldly version of Saint Joan of Arc. After explaining the things here and comforting Diane who had been with him for several days, Richard led his army to leave Bennett City and headed east along the paved road.

The snow on the ground did not hinder their progress. In just half a month, the legion arrived at Fort Miggelen first and joined Magnus.

However, because the artillery is too heavy, the firearms battalion and the accompanying escort troops are still on the way, so the First Army can't launch an attack immediately after approaching the city, and can only expand on the basis of the siege camp built by Magnus until The scale that can accommodate more than 10,000 people from the First Legion—of course, the number has increased, and the Legion did not only surround one city gate, but surrounded all four walls of Fort Miggelen. There is no escape.

After another four days, the Firearms Battalion finally arrived late. They had just entered the besieged camp, and before they had time to catch their breath, Richard ordered them to deploy the artillery in front of the army formation and get ready to shoot, but they did not dare Negligence, after putting the belongings in the tent assigned to him, he hurriedly pushed the artillery to the front, and baskets of solid shells and gunpowder were also placed next to the artillery.

After all this is done, the artillerymen will load the ammunition under the order of the officer. They first pour the gunpowder into the barrel, then put the solid iron ball in, and use the pounding pipe to compact the shell and gunpowder, and finally put the matchlock Insert the small hole in the rear of the barrel and wait for the other gun positions to be loaded.

When all the cannons were loaded, everyone looked at Richard who was sitting on the horse. The latter looked indifferent, slowly pulled out his sword, then raised it high, pointed at the city in front, and shouted angrily: Light it up, fire it up! !

As soon as he finished speaking, the artillerymen behind the artillery lit the torches in their hands, and there was a slight sizzle sound, and a few seconds later, there was a dazzling flame from the muzzle, and another deafening roar. Pushed out of the gun barrel by the force of the gunpowder, it roared and flew towards the city wall. When the soldiers on the city wall heard this thunderous sound, they all showed astonishment and froze in place. Even Robert himself was like this. He had never seen such a formation before, and he was helpless immediately, before he had time to react. I felt the city wall shaking violently under my feet, and I fell to the ground when I became unstable.

What is this? He yelled, but no one could answer him. All he could hear were the screams of the soldiers. He looked around, but saw a very terrifying scene. A wall stack has disappeared, and the soldiers hiding behind were torn apart by the mysterious force. Either the upper body disappeared, leaving only the lower body standing in place, or lost limbs, and fell down while clutching the wound. There were heart-piercing screams on the ground.

What kind of weapon is this? He asked again, and this time someone finally answered him. It was a soldier who had followed the former king Marko to meet Winster's army. He stumbled and ran towards Robert, losing all of a sudden Balance knelt down directly in front of Robert. His tone was full of panic, and he said loudly: General, this, this is the witchcraft of the Winsters! They relied on this to defeat King Marko's army! They even directly killed the king. His Majesty!!!

What?! Robert looked horrified, Witchcraft? How is this possible!

It's true! The soldier's voice was already crying. He pointed to the torn soldiers and said in pain: It was the same last time. There was a burst of flames in front of the Winsters' army formation. Then there was a loud noise like thunder, and our army was hit by witchcraft, and a large number of people died, and the death was miserable, and no one could keep their whole body!

Gulu! Listening to his description, Robert couldn't help swallowing. This kind of description sounds a lot like a catapult, but there will be no fire and loud noise when the catapult is projected.

Thinking of this, he struggled to get up from the ground, pushed away the soldiers who were about to help him, stumbled to the back of the wall, and looked out of the city. Just as he cast his gaze outside the city, he saw a flash of fire, and then It was a deafening roar, but he could clearly see the black dots flying from Winster's formation.

This is not witchcraft! Seeing this, he was certain in his heart.
