My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 402 The Castle is Broken!

Gervais was leisurely preparing to go back to sleep, but the place where the First Prince and the others were located fell into an eerie silence.

As soon as Gervais’s fifty trebuchets started, First Prince and the others felt that their proud words just slapped them in the face like a slap.

Especially the vassals of the Charles family, who originally thought that the cheap and good things would fall on them this time, but now it is very likely that they will not be able to get even a hair.

The trebuchet was the deadliest siege weapon for such a small Baron castle.

So in this world, the trebuchet can become a strategic weapon.

When they arrived in Baiyan City, they also immediately searched for trebuchets, trying to seize a few.

But in the end, it was found that most of the intact trebuchets had been taken away by the Jones family, and the remaining trebuchets had been completely scrapped because they had been soaked in water for too long.

But they didn’t expect that the Jones family got so many good trebuchets, and Alice was willing to use it for her vassals.

The First Prince felt as if he had been slapped in the face by Gervais as the peng peng crashed, each time the stone bullets slammed into Baron Castle in the distance.

“No wonder you have to ask me where the spoíls of war belong. It turns out that you are sure to capture this castle!”

First Prince clenched his fists tightly, and the veins had already appeared. At this moment, he felt like he was being tricked by Gervais.

Gervais’ deliberate objection in the tent was to play him like a monkey, and his hatred for Gervais couldn’t help but deepen.

……

Gervais didn’t know that the First Prince hated him to the point of gnashing the teeth, so he went back to the tent on his own, and lay down on the small bed without even taking off his armor. bed rest.

But even if Gervais knew First Prince’s current state of mind, Gervais wouldn’t let him go. First Prince wanted to deal with Gervais, why didn’t Gervais want to find an opportunity to kill this First Prince.

Back to camp and closed his eyes, Gervais soon fell asleep.

I don’t know how long I slept, and I was awakened by Ike’s shouting in a daze.

“My lord, a trebuchet has smashed a hole in the city wall of the castle.”

“Oh? Is there a hole? I’ll be right there!”

As soon as Gervais heard this, he immediately sat up from the bed.

A few minutes later, Gervais rode his warhorse to the Baron Castle again, and he saw that a small City Wall section on the front of the castle had been smashed.

This gap is not very wide, only two or three meters wide.

And this City Wall section is not completely collapsed, only the upper part collapsed, and the height is still eight or nine meters high.

However, compared to the city wall of more than 20 meters, the city wall of eight or nine meters is obviously much easier to attack.

In addition to this gap, some of the towers above the castle have also been pierced, apparently suffering from trebuchets.

As for the gate below the castle, the drawbridge has also been smashed with several large holes, but the castle gate inside is still intact.

“Gervais, you’re finally here! Can we attack now?”

As soon as Gervais stood still, Bart’s little fatty ran over and asked eagerly, while the other sealed The ministers also craned their necks and looked here.

Obviously, with this gap, everyone can’t wait to take down the Baron Castle.

Gervais looked at the moat in front of him, and it almost reached the bottom of the castle. Now the soldiers are moving towards that gap and carrying dirt, ready to fill it up so that the siege ladder can be held securely. .

“Gervais, we can’t wait any longer, it’s been five or six hours, and we don’t have much time left!”

Bart saw that Gervais didn’t answer himself immediately, and Thought Gervais wanted to wait a little longer before attacking the city.

But it’s still two or three hours before dawn, and if they don’t attack, it’s likely that there won’t be enough time.

“You go and tell the other nobles that we now have two options. If we start the siege right now, let them put on their armor. We will attack the city by ourselves. The soldiers are tired all night and let them charge. There will be a lot of casualties!”

“Another option is to let the soldiers rest for an hour before they start attacking!”

It was the casualties that Gervais had just considered, These soldiers of the Jones family have not slept for one day and one night. If they were to go up to attack the city immediately, it is estimated that many of them would not even be able to hold their swords, and they did not know how many lives they would have to pay.

“Okay, Gervais, wait a minute, I’ll go over and tell them now!”

Bart’s little fatty smiled happily, and immediately ran eagerly to the place where the little nobles gathered.

Bart little fatty whispered a few words with the little nobles over there, and ran back immediately.

“Gervais, they all want to attack now!”

“Very well, get everyone ready, we’ll start the attack in ten minutes!”

Next, the minor nobles began to change their armor one after another. Those with full body armor all changed to full body armor, and those without full body armor also wore two more leather armors.

Gervais also put on his mithril full-body armor with the help of Ike and the others. Although the full-body armor was a little heavy, it was inconvenient to climb the siege ladder, but the defensive power was great. Ordinary arrow feathers on their heads can’t do much damage to them at all.

“Listen everyone! Our main purpose is spoíls of war. If the people in the castle are willing to surrender, don’t kill them, but they are worth a lot of Silver Coins!”

” Did you hear that clearly?”

Gervais was worried that these people would lose their lives if they didn’t save their lives.

The spoíls of war he wanted most in this southern expedition, and the captives were one of them.

“Okay! Viscount Gervais!”

“Viscount Gervais, don’t worry, we must remember!”

Because of count’s husband’s status, plus Now Gervais has shown his strength, so these little nobles are beginning to obey Gervais’s command unconsciously.

In addition, everyone knew about the situation in Gervais’ territory.

“Thank you all! Let’s start attacking!”

Gervais nodded with satisfaction, then pulled out his long sword and moved towards the gap in the city wall.

And Bart’s little fatty is beside Gervais, also wearing a full body armor, but the size of this full body armor is absolutely rare, it is simply an iron can.

“Gervais, why do you want me to carry this siege ladder alone!”

Bart’s little fatty is carrying a nine-meter siege ladder on his shoulders. Let this ladder bear the weight of Gervais and the others, so the ladder is very strong. Even the wood on which the feet are stepped is the thickness of an adult’s arm, and the weight is hundreds of pounds. At this moment, Bart’s little fatty has gasping for breath.

“Bart, I’m here for your own good, the danger of sieging the city later is not small, so you don’t need to siege the city after you carry the ladder and set it up, you only need to stabilize the siege ladder below. That’s it.”

Gervais answered Bart sternly.

His words are half true, half false. Of course, he is not worried about Bart’s safety. After all, the full body armor that Bart wears is airtight. Gervais is actually worried that Bart will break the ladder when he climbs the stairs. .

“Okay!”

Bart’s little fatty was helpless, carrying the siege ladder with one hand and resting the other hand on his helmet. For comfort, his The helmet is oversized, so it would have been crooked when running.

Obviously, Bart never thought about fighting people in full body armor in the past, he just wanted to be comfortable.
