Rise of the Empire Total War

The city is crying.

Looking at Olivania as if the end of the world was coming, Harrell knelt down on his knees, like a wild beast in madness, constantly scratching at the long red hair that seemed to be burning. He didn't know why the disaster happened Descended over this wonderful city, perhaps he was unwilling to accept all of this.

boom--! ! !

A building not far in front of him finally collapsed after being baptized by several shells. Large pieces of rubble fell from the sky, covering the civilians running underneath with dust and sawdust. The civilians buried by the rubble even There was no time to let out the screams, and there was no movement.

More and more people passed by him, piercing screams filled his cochlea all the time, but he turned a deaf ear to them, and those fleeing civilians had no time to care about the people kneeling in the middle of the road, they just wanted to get away as soon as possible Outside the city, within range of the Winsters, fleeing to the palace open for their refuge.

Soon, when many parts of the city wall collapsed, Winster's army stepped forward to the gap in the city wall amidst the horns blown by the military headquarters. Although most of the defenders on the city wall withdrew from the crumbling and dangerous city wall, they still Some people hid in the arrow towers and relied on the solid towers to shoot at the enemy. Therefore, the troops provided by the Kingdom of Osong and other countries bravely raised their shields in front of the line infantry to attract the firepower of the defenders.

Facing the enemies coming from all directions, the remaining defenders on the city wall were powerless to stop them. They could only watch helplessly as more and more people rushed to the other side along the planks on the moat and attacked the gap in the city wall. After the coalition forces rushed up the slope of the gap, the defenders who were hiding behind the gap and deployed in full battle immediately fired their arrows and javelins at the approaching enemy. Falling down one after another like the grains of wheat that had passed, blossoming coquettish blood flowers bloomed among the crowd.

Due to the angle, the attacker cannot see the deployment of the defenders behind the gap, so the soldiers who charged up quickly suffered heavy losses and were forced to retreat. A large number of corpses fell on the ruins of the gap, adding a little height to the ruins , more corpses rolled directly down the slope and fell into the stinking moat.

The first round of charge did not go in, which made Mathias' face a little darker. Before he could give an order, the frontline grenadiers walked to the front by themselves, and threw a slightly heavy early grenadier to the back of the gap. Grenade, the defender who was about to shoot again after the gap only felt a large number of black spots flying over his head. Before he could react, he was smashed by the grenade with an iron shell. After a few seconds, the grenade that fell to the ground It exploded on its own, and immediately blew up the dense defenders.

The series of explosions was like the promised charge. The moment the explosion sounded, the coalition infantry rushed up the slope again with a roar, and rushed down the slope into the chaotic army formation when the defenders had no time to attack. The army fought hand to hand. This wave of charge by the coalition forces made the defenders who were already in chaos due to the explosion worse. The latter resisted for just over ten minutes and then began to retreat-this cannot be attributed to the servants provided by the various vassal states.

There is also the credit of the line infantry standing on the slope and shooting at the defenders.

Amidst the crisp gunshots and shouts, the defenders turned and retreated. They abandoned the city wall without hesitation, and prepared to retreat into the city along the street to engage in even more tragic street fighting with the enemy. The fear of being pursued made it impossible for them to retreat in an orderly manner, and it soon turned into a complete rout. The entire street was filled with the screams of the defenders and the cheers of the coalition soldiers when they pursued. The few people who wanted to turn around and resist were quickly dispersed by the crowd and had no choice but to be carried away.

There are very few civilians fleeing on the streets, but there are still many people kneeling on the ground to pray to the gods, or pretending that all this has never happened, like an ostrich escaping from danger. The retreating defenders quickly ran behind them. They had no time to avoid the obstacles blocking the road. They directly raised their knives and beheaded the kneeling civilians, then stepped over their corpses and continued to run.

In this way, the Winster Allied Forces chased them all the way to the royal palace in the center of Olivania City. There were still a large number of soldiers trying to squeeze in at the gate of the royal palace, but the people inside fought hard when they saw the enemy chasing them. He was ordered to close the gate, and there were quarrels and disputes between the two sides. At the time of life and death, the rout soldiers outside had lost their minds, and directly hacked at the soldiers behind the gate with blood-stained knives. After being blocked, the rout soldiers swarmed into the gate, regardless of the pursuers behind them, and no one closed the gate.

After they reacted, the chasing soldiers rushed into the gate and raised their butcher knives at these routs who had no courage to resist. A large number of routs were massacred by the armies of various vassal states. The civilians and nobles who took refuge in the palace immediately started a massacre in this resplendent palace.

When the follow-up Winster regular army arrived and stopped them, the palace had already turned into a hell on earth. A large number of civilians died at the hands of coalition soldiers. The nobles and royal families who were usually high above were also tortured and killed by unrestrained soldiers. Men were brutally killed, all women were raped by women, part of the wealth in the palace was robbed by soldiers, statues and furniture that were inconvenient to move were destroyed, expensive paintings were thrown on the ground as garbage, and were trampled by countless feet. stampede. As soon as it was killed, the library in the palace was also burned by a fire, and the classics inside were burned.

Atrocities occurred not only in the palace, but also in the urban area, soldiers of the defeated coalition army turned into wolves after killing their targets, broke into the homes of civilians, and committed violence to those civilians hiding at home. The whole city was trembling for the atrocities of the coalition forces. Let out a silent cry!

The commander of the Second Army, Mathias Horn, soon got a report that the servants were out of control, and he couldn't help frowning his pretty brows tightly. This could almost be said to be a massacre of the city. The reputation of Winster's army will also be damaged, but he thought about it, even if this hadn't happened, the reputation of Winster's army would not be very good, and derogatory terms such as butcher and executioner were used to describe them.

Even so, he could not indulge those servants. As the commander of the suzerain country, he himself had the right to dispose of the troops from the vassal country. Therefore, he ordered all the soldiers involved in the atrocities to be controlled and forced to surrender For your own armor, weapons and trophies, perform the Eleven Smash Law.

The number of soldiers involved in the atrocities was beyond his expectation. It is unrealistic to execute all of them, not to mention whether it will affect morale, and he must carefully consider destroying the relationship between the two countries—although it is a vassal state, but This does not mean that they can treat each other like livestock.
