Chapter 244: North gate

Dean is okay, his income is not very dependent on these businessmen or chambers of commerce. But Malone is a traditional warlord of Schindler, and he relies on the financial support of merchants and chambers of commerce.
Therefore, in the lush commercial area of ​​Shahaiwan Port, who dares to raise the butcher knife to the civilians and completely disrupt the order of the city, then who is the enemy of the businessmen.
Although Dane is not afraid, he does not want to cause such trouble. And Malone, who relies on the financial support of the business group, is even afraid to do so.
That being the case, then the port guard led by Bierz towards the inner city only had the people in the police battalion.
Although I don't know why the other party is obviously the one who is disadvantaged in terms of number and strength, and dare to press it so violently, but Verina took the person up and tried to personally try what the hole card was. She decided to take Some more secure approach-occupying the northern gate of Shawan Harbour.
The port area of ​​Luansha Bay Port is close to the ocean, and there is no obstacle from the port area to the inner city. One of these two areas faces the sea, and the other three sides facing the land are protected by the built city walls. Beyond the city walls, there are cities outside the city, relying on the messy bazaars and residences under the city walls, this place outside the city walls is called the outer city.
From the inner city of Shawan Harbor to the outside, there is only one gate-the North Gate.
No matter what kind of conspiracy Malone had and what kind of ideas she had in mind, Verina didn't even think about it. She now only wanted to control the gate and join the other 1,000 men stationed in the outer city. Two thousand soldiers of the garrison gathered together, and she really didn't believe that Malone could have any way to rob the city gates and walls before Dane supported them.
When he occupied the gate, he took the initiative.
The northern gate of Luosha Bay Port is not unguarded. The name here should be guarded by a police battalion, but in fact the port guard and the police battalion are jointly defending-after all, Malone cannot be really stupid and will give way to the gate.
But it doesn't matter. According to the agreement between the two sides, the soldiers stationed on the gate and the city wall have a total of four squadrons, two hundred and forty people, and one hundred and twenty people on each side.
It is true that at the gate, no one on the two sides can take advantage. But then again, it is obviously closer to the North Gate from the inner city than from the port area.
For Verina, this is the advantage. She dared to guarantee that she could reach the gate of the city more than half an hour earlier than the other, and half an hour was enough for her to win the North Gate steadily. At that time, bring all the people outside into the city, and then close the gates, regardless of your tricks, as long as you firmly hold the walls and gates.
That's what she thinks, and she does.
About half an hour later, Verina and her thousands of people had already appeared not far from the gate. The hundreds of people who chased the endless Port Guard behind them, although they accelerated their pace after discovering the intention of the battalion, but because the distance between the two sides was a little far away, even if they were in a hurry, they wanted It will take at least 20 minutes to half an hour to get under the gate.
At the same time, the good news is more than that. Soon, a soldier from outside the city brought the news of Hepia, the first wing captain of the garrison:
"The soldiers led by Lieutenant Colonel Hypia have arrived under the gate, and the port guards responsible for guarding the city have refused to open the door. Our people at the gate guard have fought with those guys in the port guard. Lieutenant Colonel Hypia is also ready to attack the city and is ready to launch an attack immediately. "
Velina nodded, this Hypia was quite decisive. Earlier, the order she gave him said that he was authorized to use any means to enter the city, the so-called 'any', of course, including siege.
那 "Let's speed it up, then," Verina said, speaking to Palan next to her.
"Speed ​​up!" Palan shouted, and then officers at all levels who heard his voice also shouted the same four words, and the army began to repeat the command. This is a way for the military to issue orders. No conventional order is faster than this continuous voice.
Very quickly, with the shout, the entire team moved faster by a few points. In less than five minutes, they were already under the gate. At this time, the battles on the gates and walls were actually coming to an end.
In total, there were only more than a hundred soldiers of the Port Guard. In the face of the same number of soldiers from the guard battalion, they were only half a catty, let alone the team below Hypia has launched an attack on the city walls. They climbed up the ladder to catch up, and at the same time, some organized light infantry with short bows were also pressed under the city walls, throwing bows and arrows at the port guard soldiers on the head of the city.
Under these double pressures, the soldiers of the Port Guard are obviously unable to carry them ~ EbookFREE.me ~ not to mention, when Verina brought the people there, the port soldiers who were guarding the North Gate, Quite a wise choice to surrender.
Since the other side surrendered, Verina did not intend to embarrass them more. She didn't waste any time and asked Paran to take part of her hands to collect the weapons and equipment of the dozens of enemy soldiers who were still alive. She randomly found a place to be held in custody, and then sent someone to open the North Gate. The gate, ready to welcome Hypia's team into the city. At the same time, she took most of the soldiers to the city wall and began to arrange defense lines on both sides of the city wall.
Facing outside the city, there is basically no need to prepare too much. After all, the significance of the walls and gates is in itself to guard against enemies from outside the city. However, the city walls had little defense against enemies coming from the city. Below the city gate, there is an institution that can open the city gate directly; on the edge of the city wall, there is a staircase that can directly reach the city wall.
After all, there are six or seven hundred port guard soldiers in the Shawan Port. Although the number is not large, it is still necessary to guard against it.
Suddenly, under the command of Verina, several streets leading to the city gate were blocked by soldiers with barricades, and corresponding manual controls were arranged. At the same time, several distant stairs that could reach the city wall were also blocked, reducing the scope of defense to a small area near the gate.
As a result, the defense line at the north gate of Shawan Port is basically arranged in such a way that it can be regarded as foolproof. (To be continued.)
