Vol 5 Chapter 27: Flag in the smoke (1)

The dark smoke, the drum of war!
Accompanied by the desolate horn sound and the smoky smoke on the grassland, after half an month later, the Centaur army that surrounded the thousand-account city finally attacked the surrounding city again.
The roaring iron ride broke the final tranquility and made the alarm bell in the fortress filled with fear; the tense soldiers and herald soldiers ran back and forth between the city wall and the tower. The messy footsteps and the screaming sound made the panic atmosphere more heavy A few points.
The blood-stained Boi warriors sat silently in piles around the city walls, wiping the gun heads and sabers in their hands; the refugees hiding in the city fortress and cellars were panic-stricken, the children cried and cried, and the elderly were injured The wailing noises of the patients "contrasted with each other" and the loud noises from outside the city barrier from time to time.
"Are they ... coming again?"
A young man in armour and with scattered head walked up to the city wall surrounded by guards. His blood-stained face was deeply worried and frightened. He even had to support the wall so that his legs would not fall down.
Nonetheless, the guards and warriors on the city walls still respected the young man and did not dare to slack off.
"Any news about Uncle Seth ... what about Master Harlemfan Ashamai, or my grandpa Laszlo Varna?"
"Unfortunately, none of them." A general standing behind him came forward and looked down at the lonely young man: "After Earl Seth Braha successfully broke through, the centaur was completely blocked. The last road, Master Belo Varna. "
"is it?"
The young man nodded. This situation did not surprise him; Belo Varna walked to the edge of the retaining wall and looked out of the city with his tired eyes.
The dark smoke covered the sky and covered every corner outside the city fortress, and surrounded the thousands of accounts. Everywhere in the line of sight, we could see the Centaur Warriors screaming and fighting, galloping.
Looking at the scene outside the city as if it could only be glimpsed in hell, Belo Varna slammed his eyes, trying to restrain his fears and calm himself down as much as possible.
That's right, this is a battle doomed to lose.
Compared with the enemies outside the city, although he and the people around him have done their best, the atmosphere of despair is still irresistible in the city.
But this is not because the people in Thousand Accounts City are too weak, but they know how irreversible the situation they are facing is!
Faced with forty people, four people may be able to gain some advantages through cooperation and terrain; but when this number continues to expand, it becomes 400 to 4,000, 4,000 to 40,000 ... the situation cannot be reversed again. .
Especially after Seth Braha led the cavalry to break through, Thousand Account City also lost the last one thousand horseback rides, and could only watch the villages and camps outside the city one by one in the flames and slaughter, half The horses and horses turned into ruins of corpses!
After nearly three months of battles, there are only more than 3,000 wounded soldiers left in the Qianding City; the weapons are also worn out, and even three soldiers can be divided into a saber, and the five soldiers share a horn bow Case.
After talking with the veterans, Belo Varna concentrated the vast majority of the veterans under the city to maneuver, leaving only a few sentries and engineering soldiers operating the city defense equipment per wall.
On the one hand, because the extra troops are useless at all, the scattered layout will only be broken by each; in addition, once the city is broken, the main force of city defense can still have the chance of a final battle.
"Woo !!!!!!"
Accompanied by the desolate horn, the smoke rolled by tens of thousands of centaurs rolled like a dark tide, and moved towards the gate of the Thousand-City City with a terrible degree.
The black wave is getting closer and closer, and the dull roar is getting louder and louder.
Belo Varna was shocked and stared at the spot, watching the "waves" that were constantly coming from all sides-in the past two months, the Centaur has never organized such a large siege.
Just a hundred steps away from the city wall, the centaur has even set up dozens of trebuchets-just over the past two months, half of the towers of the Thousand Accounts City have been "Toys" turned into ruins.
Is this going to be desperate? !
"They are about to attack—!"
In the loud noise of the trembling earth, the general behind Belo Varna hurriedly dragged him back from the wall, shouting with exhaustion: "Prepare to defend, prepare to defend!"
There was panic on the wall, and only the veterans could stand on their posts without any hassle; waving their fists and knife handles, and interrupting the prayers and crying of the recruits with the roughest means.
In this chaos, Belo Varna, who had regained his composure, also began to perform his duties as a blood member of the Duke: "Calm! The warriors of Poi, don't be scared by the enemy's voice!"
"Trust your robe, trust the spear and sword in your hand!" Belo Varna shouted loudly, swallowing hard.
"You are standing on the wall of the Thousand Accounts City, our ancestors built her, and our fathers guarded her-are you going to throw your arms to escape, or are you like our fathers ?!"
"Count Seth Braha has already gone to Byrne to ask for reinforcements. The Jonah's Huqi assembled in Great Poi. Your Duke, my grandfather Laszlo Varna's army is already on the way!" He 'S voice is not majestic, but it is full of enthusiasm:
"Brothers, persevere to the end! Let the slaughter of our loved ones, our brother's half-man, the barbarian blood, pay the blood!"
"eye for eye--------!!!!"
In the mournful cry, the soldiers on the city wall finally recovered their calmness and order in the roaring iron ride.
Belo Varner finally breathed a sigh of relief, although his expression was still lonely with a trace that could not be covered.
Grandfather Laszlo Varna was alive and dead, not knowing where he was; Bain in the south was still in a state of confusion, and no one knew when he would recommend a new duke.
As for the Jonah family ... I am afraid that only when she is dead, Salika Jonah will come happily, just like the savior to take the Qiancheng city back from the centaur?
No one knows when these so-called "reinforcements" will come ... or even if they will come.
In spite of this, Belo Varna still fights hard, and gathers his army under the city wall, preparing to fight against the siege centaurs.
Only by holding on to Thousand Accounts City can we wash our shameful defeat in the hands of the Centaur and plunge our grandfather and the entire Poi into crisis.
"The ballista is attacking!"
The sentry of the sentry sent Belo back suddenly, but before he could recover, he saw a huge shadow coming.
"boom--------!!!!"
The bursting loud tremor tremors everyone's eardrums, and it sounds like the whole world is about to collapse!
The trembling walls made Belo stand unsteady and tremble with his feet; if it was not the general behind him who had dragged him all the way through, he would not be directly smashed into meat sauce by the oncoming stone cannon.
When he managed to stand firm, he saw a huge crater on the sentry tower behind him, and half of the protective walls were crushed; the ballistas and engineering soldiers on the city wall were missing, leaving only a stain The ruins of blood.
At the same time, more and more roaring sounds came from one after another; huge white smoke continued to rise on the city walls, the solid walls were potholes, and the outermost protective walls even collapsed, exposing Mountain rocks inside the wall.
During the siege of the past two months or so, Centaurs also bombarded the walls of Thousand Accounts City with trebuchets, but almost all of them were shooting indiscriminately without any quasi-heads, with more threats and bold elements; the main thing is to throw earth and rocks ~ www.mtlnovel .com ~ The mound allows Centaurs to rush up the city walls.
Today, although it is equally messy, it is all bombarded in the same direction.
Is it possible that they plan to use a trebuchet to open the city gate?
As soon as this weird thought flashed through his head, Belo Varna suddenly awakened and immediately grabbed the shoulder of the general behind him:
"Quickly let the army of the city gates spread out, this group of centaurs and barbarians want ..."
Between the words, a loud noise accompanied by a shock suddenly came from under the wall.
The city gate was smashed open! ...
