Power and Empire Chapter 3223: Waiting
The flames in front of Haitang Bay were blazing, and the illuminated surroundings were red, and it was discovered that the surprise attack could not be carried out. The commander of the Third Army of Eero, Marquis Saya, simply turned the surprise attack into a storm. A surprising number of Eero soldiers assembled in front of Haitang Bay. , The heavy infantry in heavy armor stood in the forefront holding a steel tower shield, torches like a forest, clusters of flames swaying in the cold wind, reflecting the Eero army like a sea tide. "Bow archers are in the forefront!"
Saya, the commander of the Third Army of Eero looked at the messy Liafa people in Haitang City, with a smirk at the corner of his mouth, and raised his hand. In the gap between heavy infantry, he was wearing light armor and holding a war bow. Begin to spread the Kai, and raise the Erot bow in front of the natural reef wall of Haitang City. Under the reflection of the torch, countless flashing metal arrows swept across the city wall in a flash. The eyes of a legal person, "It's an archer!
"Asshole, despicable Erot!"
The imposing Liafarian in front of him looked at the bow and arrow raised by the secret Ma Ma, and suddenly there was a commotion. He reacted quickly and immediately found a place to hide. If there was nowhere to hide, he ran towards the back wall, "Shoot. !"
Shorts of shouts came from Eero, and the people of Liafa saw the cold light of arrows coming down like a black cloud, and the people of Liafa came in a mess everywhere. I saw the black cloud formed by the arrow cluster hitting the city wall, and suddenly it turned over. The screams sounded earth-shattering after people got down. The crowd suddenly moved, clusters of arrows flew horizontally, and the mud on the city wall splashed down like raindrops. The Liafa people hiding behind were shot by the piercing arrows with another heart-piercing scream. Some people couldn’t die for a while, and they rolled on the blood-invading ground to earn their lives. The blood spewed out, and the formation was too dense. Thousands of Liafa fighters rushed to the courtyard wall less than a hundred meters away and rushed to the front row. Human waves, as long as there is no place to hide, there are layers of corpses, human blood mixed with mud and flowing like a stream, screams in the front, and there suddenly screams in the back, but they turn around. The escaping person, the traditional light armor of the Liafa pirates, is almost defensive against the heavy bow of the Eero archer, and under the arrow rain, he is almost instantly swept away!
Under the rain of arrows, the Eero infantry is like a black line pounced on the walls of Haitang Bay, and outside the long trench of sixty steps, the Eero archer desperately draws his bow and releases arrows, one after another. The muffled scream has never been cut off. From time to time, there are clusters of arrows and short arrows that penetrate the wall deeply, and the soil overflows. The penetrating power of the Eero’s strong bow made Liafa people who saw this scene change their expressions. "My lord, the third army of Lord Saya broke through the outer wall of Haitang City, and Liafa suffered heavy casualties."
In less than an hour, the news from the front made the face of the middle-aged man on an Eero battleship on the sea outside Haitang City startled. He was only thirty-five or six years old, wearing a black Eero. Military uniform, his face is rough, his eyes are still sharp as electricity in the night, behind him, there are a few officers of the Eero Navy.
"My lord, the army has already succeeded, do we need to follow up?" an Eero naval officer couldn't help but ask
"No need, the army has the duties of the army, we have our mission." The middle-aged man waved his hand, looked at the night sky in the direction of Haitang City, and said in a cold voice, pressing the corner of his cloak. As expected, the Third Army was able to lay down the outer wall of Haitang City. The trenches excavated by the outer wall of Haitang Bay were not particularly wide and deep, and the Luzhai was only two floors. The real core was the inner wall, which is the Grand Duke of Riyadh. The location is not only a moat wall made up of strips of stones, but also a stable watchtower on the four sides. Haitang Bay is backed by the sea, and there is no open forest around it. It is almost a large stretch of beach sand. There is no siege equipment at all. Because of the lack of siege equipment, Feishan’s army had been attacking the Grand Duchy of Liafa for a long time. The Liafa’s people combined with the inside and outside, and burned Feishan’s flagship Antalya in one fell swoop. The morale of Feishan’s navy suffered a heavy blow. The only last resort is to choose to withdraw
But now the situation is completely different. Because of the heavy blow from the Imperial Navy, the other pirates who were originally attached to the Liafa pirates have been scattered, many of them are veterans with very rich combat experience. Leaving has greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the Liafa pirates, otherwise the Imperial Navy would not choose to release Grand Duke Liafaye. The Liafa people are fierce at sea because they have been supported by fisheries for hundreds of years, but if they are placed on land warfare The Principality of Liafa, which has only a few tens of thousands of people, is not only barren but also lacks the slightest minerals. Even ironware needs to be purchased from other countries. How can I compete with Eero? It’s just that the Liafa people, as the largest group of pirates in the inner sea, have ever Now, even if the strength has been greatly damaged, there are still several ships, but all weapons have been removed, and they are completely used as merchant ships. Once the Liafa people escape by boat, what we did in the sunset canyon It’s hard to conceal it. Intercepting these escaped ships is far more important than going to grab food with the Army."
"Yes, my subordinate understands"
The Eero naval officer returned to his original position with an embarrassed face, and his eyes were faintly fierce. This raid on Haitang Bay was of extraordinary significance to the Eero Empire, the wealth of the Neliafa pirates in Haitang Bay. It is said that there are millions of that gold, which is a life-saving money for the current Eero. If anyone can preemptively capture Haitang Bay, he is undoubtedly the biggest hero this time
Although the middle-aged man standing on the bow of the battleship looked calm, there was a trace of struggling in his eyes when others were not paying attention. They are all red. Erot is a strong army. Although it has a long coastline, it is extremely weak in terms of navy. Watching the navies of other countries surging in the inland seas, they fight for battles like the dragons of the sea. As the Eero Empire’s navy, it can only be used as a patrol by hiding near the coastline. The Eero Navy will not want to one day be able to truly become a pivotal force in the inland sea area. Now, the opportunity is so close that it can be used as a patrol. They can only watch, how willing!
In front of the Grand Duke Liafa’s residence, the flames skyrocketed, and the fighting sound was deafening. Pushed from the unfavorable external wall to this place in one breath, the Liafa people had lost nearly half of their troops. The fire in the Haitian city was blazing, and the Eero soldiers The first thing he did when he rushed into Haitang City was to set all the houses in Haitang City on fire and massacre the Liafa people in Haitang City. The above order was not to leave a living mouth, and the soldiers of Eero swept past. Countless Liafa people ran out of the house, and the Ero people surrounded by knives and guns fell into a pool of blood one after another. Upon seeing this scene, Grand Duke Liafaye's face on the high tower of the mansion was even more serious. It’s ugly, the Eero people are not only trying to occupy Haitang City, but to kill everyone in Haitang City and completely erase the entire Haitang City
As the fire blazed in the city, the burning houses were beheaded and killed along the way, and the corpses spread across the field. Even the corpse, the Erotians have to make up for a few knives before they can leave. The area of Haitang City is not large. As the number of Liafa people that can be trained decreases, the Eero soldiers begin to gather towards the Grand Duchy. The red-eyed Eero soldier was completely unworthy of the Liafa’s combat effectiveness. He still had some worries in his heart. After the battle on the outer city wall, that fear was already wiped out. It turned out that Liafa’s was like this. Weak, rich Haitang City has opened its doors, countless wealth is waiting, killing, robbing, burning, almost without completing the assembly of the army, the heavy infantry of a squadron began to take advantage of it without authorization. The Grand Duchy of Asia launches an attack
"Rush in and kill all the Leah legal persons"
These hundreds of heavy infantrymen of Erot had no attacking equipment, they just leaned on the sporadic arrows to cover behind them, stepped through the sea of fire, rushed through the flames, like a group of ants rushing towards the Grand Duchy, everyone knows Grand Duke Liafa used to be one of the largest pirates in the inland sea area. Naturally, Grand Duke Liafa’s mansion must also be a collection site that the Liafa people have looted for many years.
On the barrier of the Grand Duke’s residence, Duke Liafaye has been holding on to the pit and staring at the burning Begonia City, watching the city that he has devoted his life to turn into a **** hell, his hands are already tightly gripped The ringing. On the flat field of the mansion at his feet, the Leafa people who withdrew into the Grand Ducal Mansion were transporting a large number of defensive materials to the wall. At the beginning, the construction of the Grand Ducal Mansion was a real stone structure, and it was a great effort. , Even the Fei Shan’s catapult was not shot down, and behind the Grand Duke’s Mansion is the port of Haitang City. The Grand Duke’s Mansion is like a gate, cut in the corridor between the general residential area and the port. Once it is found that it cannot be held The Grand Duke’s Mansion, you can also drive a few large ships docked in the port to leave Haitang City,
"The Ninth Squadron has begun to attack the Grand Ducal Mansion!"
The sound of fighting was like a fuse. More Eero infantry were involved in the attack on the front door of the Grand Ducal Mansion, but this time, the diagonal formed by the arrow fortresses on both sides of the Grand Ducal Mansion made the front door of the Grand Duchy attack. The infantry were caught off guard, especially the four or five meters deep trench at the front gate of the Grand Ducal Mansion. The Hero soldiers stared at the arrow clusters shot down by the Arrow Fort, barely stabilized their positions, and desperately moved forward. The rain of arrows shot from a high place swept over them. From time to time, people crooked and fell into the pile of corpses stacked in the trench. I don’t know how many people tried to cross the trench. Arrows fell like locusts. Even the armor of the heavy infantry was shot. In the vital place, screaming and falling down
"Go up the siege ladder!" Saya, the commander of Eero's third army, appeared below, looking at the dead and wounded subordinates, with a cold face and loudly ordering, Eero's military paid attention to Haitang City. It is not a day or two. I sent someone to figure out the layout of the city, so I had prepared a siege ladder long ago, and I saw that under his loud order, the huge brown billowing smoke came like thunder
"Swish"
Heavy noises, the shadows of people in the smoke and dust, heavy armored infantry under the thin wall with the vajra tower shield, their armor wrapped like iron bumps, after the tower shield, they rushed to the long ladder that is still leaning against the fortress wall, and follow The long ladder was pressed on the battlement, and the bottom was immediately pressed tightly. Along this long ladder, the heavy infantry line of Erot is up. After these heavy infantry, I don’t know how many archers are lined up in the smoke. Rows of arrow clusters are constantly flowing straight over, the Liafa archer above. It fell like dumplings from a pot. In front of a long ladder, two Liafa men smashed a few big rocks towards the bottom. They saw the climbing Eero soldiers still struggling to die. Panicking, he grabbed the putter, trying to push the long ladder down by the two of them. When I got on the ladder, I heard a roar. But it was an Eero officer wearing a red long cherry blossoms on an iron helmet jumped onto the wall, and the two Liafa soldiers felt a huge force hit the chest fiercely, and the Eero officer took a step further, a **** light. Explode "Block him, don't let the Erotians come up"
The Leafa people have been frightened. If the previous attack is still a sneak attack, then it is a real desperate fight. The elite fighters of the Eero are a very terrifying force, and they are very famous throughout the south. In the past, most of the Leafa people held the attitude of contempt for the Eero Army that was defeated by the ecclesiastical state, but this time I learned that the real Eero Army is so sturdy, it is no wonder that it can compete with other countries with infantry. ,, the Eero is like a chicken blood~IndoMTL.com~ has launched three consecutive attacks, once stopped for a moment, and then pounced again! At least four to five hundred corpses were already lying outside the Grand Duke's mansion, but there was still no sign of stopping! Instead, the light cavalry kept coming and going back and forth. "The No. 3 squadron is going to replace the No. 3 squadron, and the No. 4 squadron is going to cover up from the east section."
Eero's 3rd Army Corps commander Sayada ordered his face to watch the attacking troops again being driven down by the Liafa people, and some were even pushed down from above without a firm foothold. The screaming screams had already made the others below feel fear and anxiety, and gave orders in angrily. He didn't expect that after breaking the outer city, this humble inner city would be so strong, and it would be a siege battle. Once you decide to attack the city, you must take advantage of it. Attacked with flesh and earth, wood, gold and iron, after several advances and retreats. The army's spirit is immediately depressed
So once you start to attack the city, since there is still a chance to break the city, you can't let it go easily! Ants attached to the mobo, heavy casualties and unstoppable cities, any time is the **** reality of siege warfare in the Cold Weapon Age! "
There is not much time to add." Saya glanced towards the east. The fighting has been more than three hours, and a white light appeared in the distant sky. It was a sign of dawn. Once it’s dawn, I want to It is very difficult to cover up the attack on Haitang City!
