In fact, a beautiful story has no ending, only because it has no ending, it will be beautiful.
Luchuan Xing (author of Baiquanshe)
On the second day of the invasion of Calais by the rebel army, the east and south defenders of Martin who were in charge of the operation were again violently attacked by the rebels. The offensive was even more fierce than yesterday. Once occupied a place on the east wall of the city of Calais.
If it were not for Martin to quickly mobilize five thousand elite soldiers from the palace garrison troops and reinforce the defenders on the east wall, maybe the rebels invaded the city of Calais on the second day of the siege; even if the rebels still It was not possible to break the eastern wall of Calais in this day's attack, but the rebels defending the eastern wall still paid a very heavy price under their strong attack.
At the same time, the western wall of Bennett’s town was only casualties today, and only seven or eight hundred defending soldiers were killed. Even the northern wall of the city under his command has no more than 5,000 casualties today. The heavy casualties on the two southern walls of the city formed a sharp contrast.
Martin, who was severely reprimanded by Prince William because of the almost lost of the east wall, learned that the number of casualties of the west and north wall guards responsible for Bennett, he did not venture to the palace this time. To make a small report, I first suppressed this matter, and then sent his own confidant to go all over the city to spread the rumors of Bennett and Albert.
Of course, Martin himself did not think that he was spreading rumors. He firmly believed that Bennett was a traitor who betrayed Prince William and secretly colluded with Albert. All he did was to pull out this. Traitor only.
Although Prince William, who lives in the palace, did not know Martin's small actions, he knew the casualties on the walls of the west and north. Such unreasonable circumstances made his mind grow more and more cloudy.
In any case, the change of coaching is always a taboo on the battlefield. Prince William forcibly restrained his dissatisfaction with Bennett. After Qiangyan laughed and encouraged some Bennett who actively entered the palace to report the situation, he was in the middle of the night. Called Martin to the palace to discuss.
Compared to Bennett, who followed William during his tenure as the Governor of the Northwest, he was undoubtedly the person he trusted most since he was a child; this time, he called Martin into the palace overnight. It was Martin who focused on Bennett.
Martin, who was given the advice of Prince William, was very satisfied for a while. After returning to his mansion, he sent a lot of competent people to the surroundings of the Marshal Mansion in Bennett. Bennett's eyes.
After the night, the third day of the rebels’ attack on Calais began step by step. This time, Marshal Albert and Marshal Rundstad no longer sent ordinary standing legions, but used more combat power. The powerful royal legion came to attack.
The Yulin Corps, the most powerful of the five Royal Legions, was ordered to attack the eastern wall that was almost broken yesterday. The Fire Corps, which is second only to the Yulin Corps, was ordered to attack the southern wall, which had the same casualties in the past two days. The Thunder Legion of Padama and the Storm Legion of Assassis, respectively, were ordered to attack the Western Wall and the Northern Wall with almost negligible casualties.
The commander of the Hanlin Corps Hans and the commander of the Blaze Corps Rodriguez, the two of them received the order to do their utmost to hit the rebels on the east and south walls, if they could break through one of the walls. Good; the Thunder Corps commander Uppadama and Storm Storm Corps commander Assassis, the task of the two of them is to lead the army to continue pretending to attack the west and north walls.
The 400,000 elite divisions of the four royal legions were deployed outside Calais. Even though the most deterrent heavy cavalry and heavy infantry of these royal legions would not participate in the subsequent offensive, their majestic appearance still gave way The rebel soldiers on the wall were terrified.
As soon as the offensive horn sounded, the infantry of the Royal Legion were ready to carry the cloud ladder and push the siege tower, and they advanced towards the bumpy wall that had been smashed by the trebuchet in front of them. The defending archers on the wall also returned The soldiers of the Royal Legion did not have time to wait until the soldiers of the Royal Legion entered their range. The long-range troops of the Royal Legion took the lead in their attack.
Followed by the archers of the Royal Legion advancing behind the first wave of attacking infantry, using their long bows, which far exceeded the rebel archers, poured waves of arrows into the city walls; Royal Army archers Just after shooting their two waves of arrows at the city wall, the equipment soldiers who also stopped, also used the crossbow vehicles and heavy crossbow vehicles they operated to shoot the first wave of heavy crossbow arrows.
There are only one or two hundred heavy crossbow arrows flying out, which is far less than the dense longbow arrow rain in terms of scale, but the heavy crossbow arrows are terrible lethality but not comparable to ordinary arrows; accuracy is limited Very few of the heavy crossbow arrows can directly shoot down the defenders of the city walls. Instead, they have a limited number of defensive instruments and defensive tools, which have been destroyed by these heavy crossbow arrows.
Especially the eastern city wall defenders specially prepared the kerosene for strengthening the defense last night. These hot kerosenes that were burnt early were packed in huge and fragile pottery jars. Once fired by the Yulin Army equipment soldiers When the heavy crossbow arrows are shot, the instantly broken pottery jar will make all the nearby defending soldiers unable to escape the fate of being directly swallowed by the kerosene. The screaming screams are really chilling!
The long bow and arrow rain covered the shooting and the heavy strike of the heavy crossbow arrows continued until the attacking Royal Legion infantry advanced to only 50 meters from the wall; at this time, the company was suppressed by the Royal Legion’s archers and instrument soldiers. The defending archers who could not lift their heads finally started their counterattack.
The sparse Lara shot arrows from the city wall to the under the city, which had no effect on the well-equipped Royal Legion infantry; the Royal Legion infantry who advanced forward with their shields held up, except for a few unlucky eggs, almost no one would fall Under the arrow of the defending army.
When the infantry of the Royal Legion carried the ladder and pushed the siege tower to the foot of the city wall, the battle of the day officially kicked off; even a strong army such as the Yulin Legion cannot be Under the desperate efforts of the rebels, they quickly seized control of the east wall. This is a battle destined to be carried out with the lives and blood of the soldiers of the two armies.
The southern wall of the attack by the Blaze Corps is no more fierce than the eastern wall here by three points. The high-intensity battle even once made the attacking flame army feel difficult; this is because Martin who personally sits in the eastern wall to command the battle On the south wall, an additional 20,000 elite troops from the palace were added to strengthen the defense on the south wall.
