Game of Thrones Starts with the Lord Blast System

Chapter 194: Widow's Hope (Part 2)

"Lead the cavalry to deserve the war, the glory will belong to you, and I will arrange the rest for you."

These are the exact words Lynn whispered to Duncan before the expedition.

Duncan thinks that since the lord said so, there is no problem. If there is, it is just that he and other subordinates have not done the work that should be done.

Thirty sea-going ships lined up on the coastline were chained horizontally. Originally, each sea-going ship was slowly erected with a ten-meter-high bracket. As the decks of the sea-going ships were connected to each other, the brackets also began to be moved by the sailors. down, and gradually assembled.

One by one huge objects stood like iron towers on the sea outside the widow Wangcheng.

On the Wall of Widows, Ser Kerry didn't know until the end what the giant was, it was a guy several times bigger than a carefully counterweighted trebuchet.

The end of the throwing arm on the giant counterweight catapult began to be hung by the sailors on the distant deck, which required several people to hang it with ropes at the same time.

This is really a counterweight with a terrifying weight. No wonder it needs to be escorted separately by sea ships. On land, it may be difficult for several war horses to move forward in the mud.

Widowwatch garrison commander Ser Kerry's eyes narrowed suddenly, and his face was filled with horror the next moment.

The sailors began to fill the leather bag at the other end with hundreds of pounds of stone bullets.

The prelude to the war has entered the preparatory stage.

When the horn sounded from the coastline, the north and south camps outside the Widow Wang City also responded with the rumbling sound of the horn.

The sentry tower of Widow's Watch Castle soon observed two cavalry troops moving out of the camp.

The long-awaited enemy attack was about to start, but the soldiers on the wall of the widow looked unable to lift up the confidence they had before. The several giants standing on the coastline, although they did not know what they were, they were all terrified just looking at it.

The north wind howls, the wind roars.

The cold sea breeze sent chills down the back of the person.

When the cavalry at the north and south ends outside the city began to gather towards the city gate, the sky exploded with a terrifying and dull sound like thunder.

A dozen sailors stood under a giant counterweight trebuchet, with the deck of the ship connected by iron chains under their feet. Although the hull still swayed slightly, the magnitude was negligible compared to sailing at sea.

Sailors use a winch, etc. to pull down one end of the stone bomb, and at the same time let the other end of the load in front of the bracket lift up high, which can give the trebuchet a huge potential energy.

After loading the stone bombs, an operator signaled, and the sailor pulled the back of the giant counterweight catapult like a tracker, and began to desperately pull the lever to an elevation angle of 70 degrees forward. When several giant counterweight catapults When the machines are unified to this step.

A squad leader waving a triangular flag decisively waved the command flag on the mast of a command ship.

Immediately, the operator took out a sharp sailor knife and cut off the rope tied to the base without hesitation.

Under the action of the principle of leverage, as one end of the heavy object falls from a height, the stone bullet at the other end is also affected by the reaction force and is thrown out.

Different from the human-powered trebuchet, this weapon is more powerful. The best of them can throw stone bullets weighing 400 or even 500 kilograms. At the same time, since the force of each throw is almost the same, it can completely Hit the same spot on the city wall again.

A dull rumbling echoed across the coastline with the shaking of giant counterweight trebuchets.

The widow hoped that the siege war had begun at this moment.

Hundreds of kilograms of stone bullets drew a parabola from an altitude of 500 meters. One moment it was the size of a fist in the sky, and the next moment it turned into a bucket the size of a bucket like the top of Mount Tai, smashing towards the widow looking east wall.

"what"

The widow who was in charge of patrolling and defending the east city wall looked at the garrison commander, Sir Kerry, and looked at the sky in panic. His throat seemed to be blocked by a fishbone, and he shouted vigorously towards the surroundings.

"Dodge!"

"Everyone hides."

Boom!

He had just finished shouting when a loud noise exploded in his ear, and the city wall was suddenly filled with dust from the gravel.

Such a powerful siege catapult would be a terrifying disaster for any soldier defending the castle.

The soldiers at the top of the wall were in a hurry. Although the boulders were not crowded, the first round of shooting just now caused the outer edge of the city wall to collapse for a while. The enemy's attack has just begun. If this situation continues, the consequences will not be necessary The mind will understand.

Another cloud of dust rose into the sky, and the boulder smashed into the place not far from where it hit the city wall last time. The gray air waves gathered the stumps of nearby soldiers who wanted to strengthen the city wall, with broken armor and Weapons bounced around the city walls.

The widow Wang soldier, who was lucky not to be affected, hid his head under the wall with a confused look on his face. There was almost no other way but to pray that the next stone bullet would not hit his head.

"Retaliate with ballista," someone shouted.

"It's useless, if the ballista could reach that distance, we would have attacked them long ago."

After several rounds of boulder bullets, deserters have begun to appear.

A few soldiers, like headless flies, threw away their helmets and abandoned their armor and began to flee down the city. The team they were in was hit by an oncoming boulder just now. The ten-man team did nothing, and only two people were left for a moment. The lucky one who escaped.

They didn't want to witness the experience of being directly smashed into flesh by a boulder.

They had just rushed down the city wall.

Immediately, there were soldiers of the Flint family who were supervising the battle. They rushed up screaming, and drew their swords to cut down these fleeing people. The battle has just started, and deserters are absolutely not allowed in the city. This is a sign of death before the battle.

However, the guards, who were frightened by more than a dozen courage, were forced to return to the city wall from under the city with their spears by the war supervisors, just when the two sides were hesitating whether to kill each other.

Boom!

A loud and continuous explosion sounded in their eardrums.

The crowd looked back.

Then I saw that the middle section of the city wall on the left could no longer withstand the repeated bombardment of the boulders, and collapsed in half. The whole half of the city wall was abruptly cut to a height of one meter, and the stones that built the city wall rolled down and fell into the city. There was a thunderous roar.

Everyone on both sides of the confrontation watched this scene in a daze. How long did the Gripen Legion's attack start, and how long did it take for a glass of wine? Or not at all?

Sobbing and roaring woke them up.

A whole garrison of soldiers didn't have time to leave the collapsed city wall. When the city wall collapsed, they slid downwards along with the sloping city wall. Everyone's face was full of horror, and they screamed hoarsely.

Cries for help~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Cries for the names of loved ones, cursing, or simply praying to the gods, all kinds of voices, no matter what voice is accompanied by a desperate hysteria.

"Chengtou can't stay any longer, let's go to the next city wall."

During the confrontation, one of the deserters who woke up first suddenly opened his mouth, and then fled towards the city wall like a wild one. The inspectors and the Flint family didn't care. He didn't want to die in such humiliation and misery. He shouted as he ran. The passing supervising team and deserters were all shocked.

Ser Kerry's dusty face was lifted from under the wall.

Several personal soldiers dragged his body and retreated under the city wall at the rear. After the sixth and seventh rounds of blows, the city wall could no longer stay, and each section of the city wall might collapse at any time.

With the desperate breath of dying in the air, the widow couldn't help looking at the garrison commander's eyes, looking up at the blue sky, her eyes full of despair.

And just half an hour ago, he and his soldiers were still full of confidence and hope.

Hope is now shattered, and any garrison who has experienced such a terrible war will only have ashes left on their faces.
