Glory Riding and Cutting

A few days later, Ronan's troops arrived about a kilometer outside the gate to the southwest of Fort Gethenburg. In front of them was the moat Jackson mentioned. Judging by the range of the eagle's bow and arrow, it was just at the edge of their attack range. , while catapults and bed crossbows can easily attack there.

The surrounding trees were all cut down, and only a place that was more than a day's journey away could still cut down trees. The ground was a little scorched, obviously there was too much wood, and they couldn't use it and couldn't take it away, so they burned it directly on the spot.

The Eagles discovered the whereabouts of Ronan's troops early in the morning. After all, the troops were too large, and Ronan couldn't hide even if he didn't want to. The two guard posts detected by Jackson lit up the smoke on the first day they found Ronan's troops, so All the troops outside Gethenburg were huddled in the castle before Ronan arrived.

Two days before Ronan's troops arrived, Eranikus and Kemira squatted on the supplies that the Eagles were transporting to Gethenburg. Without saying a word, the two of them rushed directly to the supply team.

First, Kemira kept killing in the formation of the supply team to attract attention, and then Eranikus skipped over the supply team's convoy from the air while the attention was partially attracted, and with the dragon flames breathing out, The convoy suddenly burst into flames, the temperature of Longyan was extremely high, and the fire burned quickly, and the supply team had no time to burn out the fire fighting supplies.

Then Kemira forced the other people around her back and flew away directly, but Ronan did not let them return, but still let them stay behind to prevent the Eagles and the supply team from arriving. The supply team whose supplies were destroyed sent several soldiers to deliver letters to Fort Gessen, and the rest all returned to Jianmen Fort. But obviously, the soldiers who delivered the letters and the pigeons sent out could not escape. Kemira's poisonous hands, so Gesenberg has not yet received news that the supply was destroyed.

After eating a meal and resting for half an hour to digest, the soldiers began to cover the engineers with their shields and began to build bridges. Most of these engineers were the gangsters that Ronan had caught before. Although they were extremely frightened, But Ronan promised to pardon them if they survived the whole bridge, and give them some money rewards, so they were dead before and after, and they finally chose to build the bridge with the pie painted by Ronan.

The bridge is made of wood, and the parts have been built by craftsmen before. They just need to be spliced ​​together. The quality is average, but it is not a problem to withstand today's attack. If it is attacked, they will not be needed.

After paying a lot of casualties, the wooden bridge was finally installed two hours later. The enemy continued to shoot and harass at the beginning, but because the distance was too extreme, the effect was not good, so in order to save arrows, they did not continue They shot, but only used catapults to attack, and the arrows were reserved for the next defense of the city.

After the wooden bridge was built, the troops immediately crossed the wooden bridge in batches holding their shields. The troops in the middle took the parts one by one and assembled them directly after crossing the bridge. After all, the large siege equipment was directly transported across the bridge. The requirements are too great, and it will be troublesome if the bridge half collapses.

The siege ladders, ladders, and other equipment were being spliced ​​together. The archers led by Jackson also crossed the moat, and then launched a counterattack against the city wall under the cover of the large shield infantry. The archers on both sides fell from time to time, and the strength of the eagle's archers far surpassed the strength of other Gaoling noble troops that Ronan had fought before, so it caused more trouble for Ronan's troops.

"Break the door!"

The outermost gate of Fort Gethenburg is in the style of a suspension bridge, so Ronan specially named a craftsman to create some heavy crossbows for shooting and destroying the structure of the suspension bridge. One of the iron cables on both sides was about to break.

"Bang!" The iron chain of the suspension bridge finally broke, and the entire gate fell to the ground with a loud crash. After the soldiers dodged, they pushed the cart and stepped on it, and began to attack the iron gate with a big ax and saw. It was still solid, so I didn't know how long it would take to saw it like this, so the soldiers quickly gave up the idea of ​​sawing off the gate and began to wait for Mathias to come over.

Matthias also crossed the bridge under the escort of the soldiers at this time, surrounded by twenty ghoul lords, surrounded by two hundred infantrymen with heavy shields for protection, in fact, those twenty ghoul lords The protection is enough, those are warriors who can chop the ammunition of flying catapults with swords, it is estimated that only the ballista with extremely fast firing rate can kill them.

But Mathias had just crossed the bridge, and before he could reach the gate, the gate of Gethenburg suddenly opened, the iron gate went up, the wooden gate opened, and a group of orc warriors in heavy armor and the hero The eagle soldiers rushed out howling immediately, and stood in a group with the breaking troops led by Meriuses.

Their purpose is very clear, which is to destroy Ronan's siege vehicles. If possible, it is best to break through the troops near the city gate, rush to Ronan's archer position and kill them, so as to reduce the pressure on the city wall.

However, Meriuses led the troops to fight back very quickly and tenaciously, and fought with the enemy troops who went out of the city without giving up an inch. Although the car was still damaged, the wheels were chopped by an orc warrior with a giant axe up.

There was fierce fighting at the city gate, and fierce fighting on the city wall. In order to deal with the attacks of the archers on both sides of the city wall, the craftsmen specially added two extended baffles to the two sides of the ladder, and the ladder was built on the city wall. , the baffles on both sides completely block the bows and arrows from the walls on both sides, and the soldiers climbing the walls still only need to deal with the attacks from above.

However, the defenders of the Eagles were well prepared. The bed crossbows on both sides of the city walls were continuously filled and fired, accurately destroying Ronan's siege equipment. If it can continue to be used, the ladder on the edge of the city wall will be miserable. If it is shot, it will be cut in half, directly broken into two pieces, and all the soldiers will fall down.

As for the crossbow ladder that was tested before, it was not put into use, because the angle formed by the range of the crossbow ladder and the height of the city wall of Getsonburg was too inclined, and it was difficult for soldiers to run on it.

Mathias looked at the city gate for a while and couldn't tell the winner. He watched the bed crossbows on both sides shoot continuously, and knew that he couldn't delay any longer. He originally wanted to destroy the city gate first, so as to avoid destroying it later. There was no magic power left in the watchtower, but now there is no other way, because Mathias has seen Ronan riding Nami Entu and taking Jessefa from the air to the right city wall.
