Power and Empire Chapter 94: Collision (3)
"It's the three-legged falcon that defeated the Issa family!" a defeated army exclaimed, and his face showed uncontrollable excitement. Soon, the name spread to all the defeated army, looking at those The black armor is rolling away, and his eyes are full of fear, hope, and enthusiasm
If this family was still unknown half a year ago, now any farmer in the entire Wizan area knows the bravery of this family,
In the Vizan area where Samor was adjoining, many northern caravans have passed by in recent months. The tragic battle of tens of thousands of people in the Sambuga hills has long been a means of negotiating with the passing caravans.
In the imaginative depictions of various merchants, the battle that determined the hegemony of the South became a magnificent performance by the Satsuma people. It not only completely subverted the proverb that "the plain is the dead place of infantry", that The ten fire-breathing crude oil trucks are depicted as ten fire-breathing dragons, which makes Fat Satsuma a little more mysterious
"Wise commander! Generous lord! Respect the nobles of merchants, knights who control dragons..."
Numerous auras hovered over Fat Samor’s head, and the Vizan suddenly found that in the Samor area near him, he was standing up a stomping giant overnight, and the entire south would tremble,
is huge and terrible in the eyes of the Vizan lords. The large amount of gold coins paid by the caravan makes them hope that the giant will be bigger. The high profits obtained by the nobles in the Jerp area make Vizan a lot of small Noble Heartbeat
In the minds of ordinary Vizan soldiers, a legend of the falcon on the battlefield, which is dominated by peasants and defeated tens of thousands of elites of nobles, is far more impressive than the exaggerated and untruthful achievements of their lord, not to mention the fat Samor Many of the rumors of the Vyzan are very funny, making these Vizans feel that this is not a superior lord, but an ordinary person who is just like them, who has no shortage of food and drink.
For example, this fat man likes to touch his white belly, and sometimes he likes to make some laughable little gestures like standing on the head of the city and peeing,
Of course, what fascinates the soldiers the most is that the Samorians will distribute the land of the nobles to the peasants. This is something that the Vizans can’t imagine and never dared to think about. This is no longer the scope of generosity. This is the savior. What I did
"Oh my God, the Samos are here, our village will no longer have to pay taxes to the lords this year"
Most of the defeated army recruited from the peasants were stunned by the sudden fall of happiness, and they knelt on the ground with tears of excitement.
Fatty riding a war horse, standing on a high place in the hills, watching groups of Samorian soldiers along the mountain road, like small streams running towards a big river, meandering into the distance
"Is there any new news about Crolithart, who was responsible for the containment?"
The fat man waved his riding whip, turned his head and asked, followed by Caesar Sauron in heavy armor and 300 guards cavalry in full attire. Hearing the fat man’s question, Guard Captain Salon responded cautiously
" My lord, I’m sorry, Lord Crolitsat has no new news. I only know that the Khergits are resting at Vizan Castle. It seems that they are preparing to wait for the rescue of other Khergits based on the castle’s delay. !"
The 20,000 Samor army assembled in the Samor Fortress early the day before yesterday. One was led by Crolitsat, the eighth and the sixth heavy regiment were two elite groups, with a total of 13,000 people along Kujit. The Vizan Plain area, where people must pass, is advancing to intercept the Kujites,
A 6,000 lightly armed mountain infantry and a 2,000 heavy cone siege regiment led by Fatty himself and Caesar Sauron plunged into the back road of King Kujit Zuowei from the mountainous area outside Samor, killing Kujit. The way people retreat
In this long and narrow Vizan area, the unprepared Kujites were frustrated again and again in front of the strong crossbows and strict military formations of the Samorians. The two sides fought more than ten times, and the Samorian army was slowly advancing. It’s like a thick wall, the Kujites can’t breathe under pressure
The dilapidated King Kujit Zuowei had to give up his original plan to attack, and with the remaining more than 6,000 people withdrew into the newly occupied Vizan Castle. The 20,000 main force of the Zuowei king who was entrenched in the middle also began to move around. , Is gathering in the central region, and it seems to be ready to come to rescue
The gentle progress has evolved into a distressed siege
The ruined and low Vizan Castle became the center of the battle. Nearly 30,000 people crowded on this small plain. Inside the city were awkward Kujites, and outside the city were crowds of Samorians. People, everyone looks at each other, everyone knows that this is a life-and-death contest,
The heavy black Samorian infantry blocked the water surrounding the Vizan Castle, and white tents were placed outside the city, like small dots on the ground, and the huge three-legged falcon flag floated on the top of the big tent in the middle.
A group of Samorian soldiers began to cut down the surrounding trees, preparing to build new siege equipment,
Kujites are very tenacious. The Samorians launched three attacks from last night to noon today. At first they occupied a small wall, but they were soon driven out by the reinforcements of the city. The wreckage of two siege vehicles burned by rockets was left outside, and the dark frame was straddling diagonally
This time, the Samoran sent troops in a hurry, and almost didn't consider the situation of siege. In a hurry, he could only rely on two simple-built siege vehicles to approach the castle, but under the rainy rocket of the Kujit shooter , The loss was heavy, at least 30 heavily loaded soldiers fell under the wreckage of the siege vehicle
Siege warfare is a process that tests people’s psychology. Looking at the falling rocks and arrows, no one will feel good, whether it’s a Samorian climbing up the city wall with a rain of arrows or Coogee Special people wield a machete to drive the enemy down, and the war has continued on the periphery of the city wall
Crolissat may be a loyal and upright brave general, but he is definitely not an intelligent general. Facing the stubborn resistance of the Khergits, Crolithart can only besiege the city in accordance with the usual siege procedures. Siege, be driven down, attack the city again, be driven down again, the two sides are in a stalemate like this
On the third day, the fat man rushed to Vizan with light infantry, frowned as he watched the camp full of injuries, and angrily scolded Crolitsat. On the fourth day, he curled up in Vizan Castle. The Kujites inside saw that the Samorians outside the city stopped their attacks, but they increased the number of people who fell trees.
In the dark night, a screaming and sharp sound suddenly sounded outside the city. All the Kujit guards quickly looked up, but only saw the dark night sky with dense clouds. They looked outside the city with doubts, and only Satsuma could be seen in the darkness.尓人 white tent roof
"What the **** are the Satsuma people doing!"
The Kujit scratched his head, puzzled and prepared to continue resting against the battlements. Suddenly, a little bit of stars was lit from the sky, and a dense arrow rain fell from the sky. Hundreds of Kujit soldiers were shot to the ground. The screams and wailings are one after another on the wall,
"Night Arrow! It's Night Arrow!" shouted the Kugit patrol
The Kujites on the city wall were a little flustered and raised their shields to cover their heads. They only heard the sound of ping-pong pounding from the top of their heads, and the shields above their heads were pierced into hedgehogs.
The dark night concealed the trajectory of the arrow shot. You can only be surprised when the arrow hits your body. This is the psychological tactics of siege that Kujites have always been proud of. I didn’t expect that I would try it someday. To the taste of being conspired by others
"Hateful Samoers!" King Kujit left-back yelled secretly. The shameless sneak attack just now cost him more than 200 people. Now there are only more than 4,000 people left in the entire castle. If you don’t rely on Wei Thanks to the abundant supplies in the castle, the heavy infantry of Samor has already attacked.
For this ambush by the Satsuma, King Zuowei had nothing to do except curse. The strong bow and crossbow prepared by the opponent was almost the dead enemy of the Kujit light cavalry. The light cavalry's leather armor looked like a piece in front of the crossbow. Thin paper,
The thick army formation, the powerful crossbows, and the mysterious black cavalry that is not inferior to the fighting power of the Kujit heavy cavalry, all of which show that this time his opponent is no longer the former sloppy Vikings.
such a tyrannical and shameless opponent appeared overnight, which made Kujit Zuowei very helpless
"Damn fat Satsuma, let you be arrogant for a few days, and wait for my 20,000 army to arrive~IndoMTL.com~ I must peel off your skin to make drums!"
Thinking that he would fall into such a field on the grassland, Kujit Zuowei gritted his teeth and cursed.
On the morning of the fifth day, the Samorians appeared in front of Vizan Castle, pushing a dozen huge stone dump trucks, hundreds of meters away, several operators gestured with their fingers, as if Vizan Castle The Kurgits who were harassed all night were all targets. The Kurgits on the city wall saw the arrogant behavior of the Samorians, and their teeth tickled with hatred.
"Bump!" At noon, under the gaze of tens of thousands of people on both sides, the first stone throwing projectile drew an arc, traversed hundreds of meters, rolled down ten meters in front of the Vizan city wall, and hit the ground. A big pit, this shocked the nervous Kujites in the city. Looking at the big pit at their feet, the Kujites began to commotion,
The walls of Vizan are not wide and thick, at most it is a lord’s castle, not a thick kingdom fortress. In front of this kind of large stone dumper attacking the fortress, there is almost no resistance. Smashing himself into a big rock of meatloaf, Kujit's face is as earthy
"huhu" saw the first stone bomb falling in front of Vizan Castle. The Samorians adjusted it a few times. Several stone bullets slammed on the wall of Vizan with howling noises, and the sand flew across. , The stones splashed, and there were only a few small pits in the weak Vizan city wall.
"Prairie God Bless!"
This made the panicked Kujites cheer on the wall, and they all thanked the Vikings for their kindness
"Sassafras! Whoever repaired this city wall can't even cut corners, is it all piled up with monoliths!"
Fatty rides on a horse, looking at the attack effect in the distance, his jaw does not fall off, feeling that the tall tofu dregs projects of later generations can be ashamed and angered in front of this ruined castle
