Chapter 258: Battle of North Gate

Villina, who was standing on the city's head, watched as Hypia was stepped over by a warhorse under her eyelid and chopped by a machete. Until the whole person was turned into a puddle of meat that no one could recognize by the horseshoe and the blade.
She also saw the last glance at Hypia before she died. She didn't care what the man's eyes meant, and she didn't care.
There was only one thing she was thinking at the moment-how could she securely secure the north gate of Shawan Port before the support team led by Lord Dion arrived.
Verina is not a cold-blooded person. In fact, she was pushed into the cliff by three hundred blood-stained soldiers outside the city gate, which also made her heartbroken, for the death of these soldiers and the excellent officer Hypia. Feeling pain.
But it was just heartache. She didn't regret it at all, not even feeling guilty.
The reason is also very simple, she knows that she must be doing something right.
War is not a game, there is never an undead war. If the enemy takes the opportunity to charge into the city, this battle will be able to separate the victory and defeat this afternoon, and it will be defeated for ourselves. At that time, there will be more than just two or three hundred people, including the 1,000-person police battalion originally in Shawan Harbor, including more than 700 soldiers who have previously entered the city. It is estimated that ten will survive. Don't save one.
In fact, when Hypia and the more than 300 soldiers who were locked out of the door rushed forward when the Red Scarf Sand Riders rushed forward, it represented that they had entered Hell.
The mind did not continue to focus on this already settled matter. Verina looked at those who killed the infantry under the field, but did not retreat nearby. Zheng Yaowu Yangwei blew the unique whistle of the sandpiper, and sounded continuously The whistle made the soldiers on the wall both angry and frightened.
"Has the angle been adjusted? Open fire on those cavalrymen below the city!"
He gave a decisive order, and the two doors had been turned on by the gunners at Verona's request.
The explosion of the two shells was still effective. More than a dozen proud robber cavalry were within the scope of the artillery shell explosion, and were killed by accident on the spot.
Actually, the artillery has such accurate shooting accuracy, but the robbers are too close, they can turn a muzzle and put two artillery into the crowd, and they can hit the blind.
Of course, the robber cavalry who had been bombarded could not continue to be silly to be beaten under the city wall. The power of the artillery explosion was second, mainly the soldiers of the police battalion standing on the city's head, also raised their bows. Crossbow and started firing down.
Davil, the head of the Red Scarf Sandpiper Cavalry Regiment, 'Bald Dog', was quite unhappy and retreated with his men. He had unpleasant reasons. He was thinking of killing the soldiers in the garrison below the city and then entering the city gate. But even he couldn't think of it, Verina would decisively order to close the gates and send her family outside.
I couldn't help looking back at Verina, who was standing on the head of the city. I thought of a wickedness in my heart, and a smirk smile appeared on my face: "This girl is a bit spicy and has enough flavor, When the city is captured, I will let you know how 'awesome' I am, hehe. "
Velina certainly didn't know the idea in Davil's heart. After using artillery and crossbow to drive away the burglar cavalry under the city gate, she immediately ordered the gunners to adjust the muzzle angle and prepare to launch artillery fire on the six Malone's artillery placed in the distance.
The puppet fired down from the head of the city, and the range of the shot was much longer than the six artillery pieces below that hit the head of the city. In order for the enemy's artillery to cause sufficient threat to their own side, at least they must advance the artillery position by two hundred meters, but at this time Verina's artillery can already be bombed.
The heavy artillery weapon, such as a torch, is not very easy to move. The artillery of the Malone Corps is on wheels, and at least one artillery must be towed by two warhorses to maintain a certain degree of mobility. This is still on flat terrain. If it is a rugged terrain, it is difficult for such a powerful war tool to play any role.
Howling, the twelve war horses began to gradually approach the city gate with six artillery pieces.
Approaching.
If Verina has the experienced senior artilleryman, the six artillery of the other party must be seized to destroy two or more in the process of progress. But unfortunately, the gunners in Shawan Port, not to mention catching ducks on the shelves, are not very experienced people, and even ordinary training cannot be guaranteed.
Alas, the accuracy of the shelling is difficult to say.
He bombarded three rounds of artillery, and six shells blew out, but killed only two horses.
At this time, the opponent ’s artillery was also in place ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The gunner under Ma Long was also half a catty, even if it was three times more, but there was a special fortification in front of the defensive cannon. It's not easy to hit and destroy. On the contrary, the field artillery is very easy to be hit with a focus, and the last shot is accurate, at least it can directly reimburse a gunner group.
The two sides have already started mutual shelling, which has also opened up the entire war. After the bombardment positions are in place, at the same time, they are urged forward by the drums of war. Start a comprehensive siege!
Velina's mood finally began to tense. The shooting between artillery is actually not a very important component in this battle. Anyway, both sides are picking each other. But the three thousand elite warriors began to pose a comprehensive siege, that is, the competition on hard power.
What's worse, at the same time, behind the North Gate, the Port Guard led by Bierz seemed to have gotten the news, and began to launch an attack from the city against the line of defense of Verina on several streets.
夹 Under the double-sided attack, how can you not feel nervous even with the self-confident paladin of the master of defense?
The garrison she placed on the city's head had fewer than a thousand people, the garrison team that had just entered the city, and a part of the soldiers in the guard battalion, a total of almost six or seven hundred people, had been sent to the rear by her for Coping with the port guard's attack.
Amidst the sound of gunfire and shouts, the battle for the northern gate of Shawan Port with nearly 5,000 participants from both sides began, and the fight began! (To be continued.)
