Overgod Ascension

Chapter 623: Broken City

Under Lionheart City.

A dozen huge military formations were lined up in a row, with blue dragon flags flying.

Under the unified military flag, there are various badges of other nobles, including the sword and shield of the Conqueror, the claws of Viscount Bale, the blue leaves of Baron Terry, and the lion head of Garcia...

On the city wall, Duke Wellington looked at the coalition forces below expressionlessly, his hands already secretly clenched.

The people of the Shadow Hand never contacted him again, but William the Conqueror, who was supposed to be dead, came here, and immediately knew that the assassination was caused by him... All of this was like a nightmare, and he was Being dragged into the bottomless abyss, no matter how hard you struggle, it will be of no avail.

"Saga Wellington!"

A war horse rushed out of the military formation, with a blue-armored knight riding on it. He was high-spirited and his loud voice could be heard far and near.

"I swear in the name of William Wallace, ruler of the Windfly Plains, king and conqueror of the Windfly people, that as long as you surrender immediately, I will still canonize you as the Duke of Wellington, and make Lionheart City as Your fiefdom will forgive your despicable actions and sins you have committed before! As long as you surrender!"

"Surrender!"

"Surrender!"

"Surrender!"

Twenty thousand people cheered together, beating their shields and armors with an earth-shattering momentum.

"That's the Conqueror - William Wallace?"

The Grand Duke of Wellington, Saga, looked at the high-spirited Wu Ming below, the expression on his face became even more gloomy, and at the same time there was a hint of vigilance.

He was keenly aware of the changes in his vassals. After all, Garcia Wellington had surrendered to the King of Conquerors and was still being reused. Of course they could too.

As for whether the Wellington family will be split up? To be honest, if you were a small noble from a branch lineage, you might be eager to do this.

"Fire the arrow!"

Wellington was silent for a while, seemingly considering the suggestion carefully, then looked north, and finally waved.

call out!

A long arrow was thrown, and fell with all its strength when it was more than ten feet in front of Wu Ming. [Zero↑Nine△小↓说△网]

This is not a block, but an announcement that negotiations have broken down and can only end in war.

"As expected, it still doesn't work. It seems that sending Weilon out of Ice City to ask for help from Storm Cape gave you confidence?"

Wu Mingle turned his horse's head and returned to the military formation: "Attack!"

"attack!"

A general next to him screamed at the top of his lungs, and a thick horn suddenly sounded.

Boom! Boom!

Military formations continued to advance one after another, causing the Wellington tribesmen on the city wall to panic: "What is that?"

At the front of the military formation were shield and spear troops, as well as crossbowmen and knights guarding both sides. Of course they knew these troops.

But among Wu Ming's army, they also saw many strange things.

For example, the giant tree that was eight feet long and was pushed on a cart. Now they probably knew that it was the 'Holy Fire' that William got in the church's propaganda. It was actually a wooden tree with strange firearms and good at playing with the power of flames. Artillery Corps.

But other than that, they couldn't understand the ladders and arrow towers that were as high as the city walls, the thick siege vehicles that looked like giant shell monsters, and the final trebuchet.

"Let the catapults take action first. Once the enemy's morale is reduced, the wooden cannons and ladder tower siege vehicles will immediately go up. The earthwork troops will issue tools and be ready to dig tunnels and bury gunpowder at any time."

As Wu Ming handed down orders one by one, Viscount Bale looked at Lion Heart City with eyes full of pity.

Even he was dumbfounded after hearing the purpose and power of these weapons at the military meeting that had just been held.

The knight who once developed business in the Kalos Territory not only came up with many brilliant ideas that could capture a large amount of Jin Delong, but it was also terrifying to apply his wisdom to siege cities and kill people!

"Trebuchet ready!"

A large number of soldiers shouted, using crowbars, mallets and other tools to put a hundred-pound boulder into the strange-shaped trebuchet.

Different from ordinary trebuchets, these trebuchets designed by Wu Ming directly adopt mature designs, add an extra counterweight, and use steel parts for important parts. The overall performance is similar to the "return cannon" of the previous generation, and can project boulders weighing hundreds of kilograms. , can be called a siege weapon in the cold weapon era.

"emission!"

Following the order, a dozen counterweight trebuchets immediately roared and smashed a dozen boulders weighing more than a hundred pounds onto the walls of Lionheart City.

Boom!

Rocks flew and smashed the stunned guards into pieces.

Boom!

A big hole opened in the city wall, and countless cracks spread.

Boom!

Like an earthquake, this repeated smell of heaven and earth is an extremely terrifying psychological pressure for any ancient soldier.

"If the trebuchet continues and hits the city gate, I will directly reward him with a hundred gold delongs!"

Wu Ming looked at this scene and nodded with satisfaction: "After three rounds of stone throwing, the ladders and siege vehicles came forward, the crossbowmen suppressed the city wall defenders, and covered the wooden cannon and earthwork troops!"

The ladders and arrow towers are at the same height as the city wall. The archers on top do not have to attack the city wall from above, and they have gained the right to fight on an equal footing.

In this world, there are extraordinary knights. Individual bravery is exaggerated to the extreme, but the study of overall war skills is somewhat superficial.

Under the pressure of Wu Ming's world-wide experience gap, even if there were more people defending the city, the situation immediately appeared to be inadequate.

"Order our family knights to attack and destroy those wooden monsters!"

However, this world is different from the ordinary world, that is, the existence of knights can be used as sharp knives on the battlefield.

For example, at this time, after seeing the ferocious side of these siege engines, the Duke of Wellington immediately issued an order.

"Brave and loyal!"

"For glory!"

"charge!"

Many knights wore armor and rushed up to the city wall. They used their nimble skills to dodge most of the attacks and jumped onto arrow towers and ladders. It was a massacre immediately.

Of course, there were also unlucky knights who were set on fire and died horribly.

Even if they have extraordinary power, they are still flesh and blood. If they are hit by a trebuchet, they will still turn into a pile of meat patties.

"Enter our knights too!"

After conquering the entire Fengying Plain and gaining the allegiance of some highland nobles, Wu Ming now has no fewer knights than the Duke of Wellington.

After the entire knights joined the battle, the situation stabilized instantly.

"Haha...Kill! Kill!"

On the city wall, a ladder was built on a wooden bridge, sending a steady stream of soldiers to the city wall. A tall, demon-like knight wearing a horn helmet rushed over quickly, swinging a huge iron axe. Wherever you go, there will be a bloody storm.

He roared like a violent beast.

"The wild beast Leif! This is the strongest mad dog under my uncle!"

Garcia looked at this scene and his pupils shrank.

"He's just a knight. He may have a breakthrough and become a great knight, but so what?"

Just as Wu Ming's calm voice fell, a loud noise sounded.

During the explosion, a terrifying metal storm swept across.

It turned out that there was a wooden cannon secretly stored on top of the arrow tower, specifically used to open up the situation on the city wall.

This Leif was unfortunately in the center, and his body was immediately torn apart, with blood and internal organs flying.

The hellish scene made Garcia immediately feel sick.

"You see...cultivating a knight like Leif requires not only training from an early age, preparing war horses and armor, but also holy oil and rewards from the manor. Which step you take in the end depends entirely on luck!"

Wu Ming smiled and said: "But what are the losses on our side? A dozen soldiers, plus a wooden cannon? It is less than one-tenth of the training of knights! This is the victory of the system and the potential of war!"

Garcia was always a smart man, but now he understood it as soon as he heard it.

He also knew a little bit about the manufacture of wooden cannons. A few carpenters and blacksmiths worked on it in just half a month, but how long does it take to train a knight? Twenty years? Thirty years?

For William, even if he exchanged ten wooden cannons for one knight, he would probably make a lot of money, but for his enemies, he would lose money no matter what he did.

Boom!

At this moment, many cheers of joy suddenly came from the front.

It turned out that after experiencing successive bombardments by trebuchets and wooden cannons, and then being hit by the huge ramming wood of the siege engine, the gate of Lionheart City was finally overwhelmed and collapsed.

Faced with this opportunity, the Blue Dragon Alliance showed good discipline. Under the scolding of the generals of each team, no one rashly advanced.

When news came from the geotechnical force, Wu Ming was overwhelmed with thought and gave the order:

"ignition!"

A line of fire was ignited and spread under the city wall.

Boom!

Immediately afterwards, a huge explosion sounded, and black smoke rose into the sky, vaguely forming a mushroom cloud.

An entire section of the city wall collapsed, and all the soldiers on it were buried alive. The scene was horrific.

"Okay, charge!"

Wu Ming immediately issued the order.

For the defenders, the sense of security brought by the tall city walls is the last source of confidence. Once the city is breached, the blow will be unparalleled, and some defenders will even collapse directly.

There might be a chance that one gap could be blocked back, but with two gaps between them, even the Duke of Wellington didn't hold on to this hope.

"After entering the city, arrest all the Wellington family members inside and don't let anyone go!"

"Military law enforcement team, patrol all streets and strictly prohibit our soldiers from committing robbery and other immoral acts!"

"Carry small wooden cannons into the city to prevent anyone from starting a street fight with us."

Order after order was issued by Wu Ming in an orderly manner.

Garcia watched this scene blankly. The red lion flag fell in the Lion Heart City. A large number of soldiers wearing armor and waving swords poured into the city, hoisted the blue dragon flag on it, and cheered loudly.

I don't know why, but his eyes were moist and he almost shed tears.
