The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 703 Surrounding the Tower of London

"What sound?" In the early morning, Henry VII, who was sleeping, suddenly heard a loud noise from the west, and suddenly woke up. He is very stressed these days and sleeps very lightly. In addition, the palace is located in the Xicheng District, and when I heard the loud noise from the west gate, I was naturally awakened.

The attendant heard Henry VII's question and immediately went out to inquire about the news. Not long after, the attendant came in in a panic:

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... something is bad..." Because of the nervousness and panting too much, the attendant couldn't speak well.

"What's wrong?" Henry VII suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Ximen was breached. The enemy blew up Ximen with gunpowder, and is rushing in..." The attendant breathed a sigh of relief and said at a very fast pace.

"What?" Henry VII was taken aback and jumped out of bed immediately.

"Tell me what's going on?"

"It seems that a group of bandits in the city blew up the piles in the city gate hole with a powder keg and opened the west gate..."

"It's over..." Henry VII fell to the head of the bed...

...

At this time, at the West Gate of London, the battle was also extremely fierce. Those handsome dead men who were in charge of blocking the city wall were only young and bewildered after all. When the enemy was organized and prepared, it was difficult for them to last for a long time.

Sure enough, not long after Kahn rushed into the city gate, the handsome young and dangerous boys who blocked the city wall retreated and retreated into the city gate hole.

"It's rubbish!" Kahn whispered disdainfully in German. However, he also knew that the fact that these people could open the city gates was already a great achievement, and he couldn't ask for more.

Without the obstruction of the young and bewildered Englishmen, the British soldiers on the top of the city rushed to the city gate like a tide, trying to drive Kahn and others out, and closed the city gate.

But who is Kahn? Humanoid Demon King! In between, Kahn waved a heavy mace full of thorns and smashed it hard-all the British soldiers near the city gate were either smashed into the air or smashed into patties. The scene was extremely bloody... …

"Bastard, this guy is too fierce!" The British commander was furious. After thinking about it, the British commander loudly ordered:

"Longbowmen, shoot me this bastard!"

So, a group of English longbowmen took arrows and aimed at Kahn...

Following an order from the British commander, the feather arrows poured down like rain on Kahn and the East Frisian knights beside him...

If these people were wearing ordinary cast iron plate armor that was popular in this era, they would have been shot by a powerful English longbow at such a close distance.

However, Marin's most elite subordinates were all wearing high-carbon steel plate armor, which was extremely strong. Many people's breastplates are even made of rare high-manganese steel. And the perverted Kahn, all dressed in high manganese steel. Because high manganese steel is difficult to manufacture, it needs to be formed at one time, which makes processing extremely difficult. This full set of high manganese steel armor is only available to several high-level generals such as Marin, Schwartz, and Kahn. Even if the heavy cavalry of the First Army Corps, a trusted friend of Marin, was dispatched this time, everyone only used high-manganese steel for their breastplates and helmets.

In the face of steel plate armor, even if it is as powerful as the English longbow, it is powerless...

As time went by, the dead soldiers who pushed into the city gate hole, although they couldn't fight, they quickly helped to clean up the sundries and completely opened the city gate...

At this time, the main force of Marin's army finally rushed outside the west gate...

Seeing that the infantry was rushing up, and behind him, Kahn knew that his mission had changed from defending the city gate to leading the charge...

"Go!" Kahn yelled, and swung his mace at the English longbowmen. And the other plate knights of the first legion also shouted in response.

This torrent of steel quickly swept away the English longbowmen. Even, many longbowmen who were too late to evacuate were directly smashed by Kahn, the bull, with a mace...

The mace smashed down,

Flesh and blood were flying, the spikes on the stick, and a lot of bloody minced meat hanging...

Seeing this terrifying scene, many British soldiers collapsed. Especially those sailors who were called in, when had they seen such a fierce person as Kahn? As a result, many terrified sailors immediately threw away the sailor's machete and shouted:

"God, this must be the devil!" Then many sailors fled...

"It's over..." Locke, the British commander stationed at the West Gate, saw the scene in front of him and knew that the situation was over, and slumped on the ground weakly...

Then, a strange scene appeared on the streets of London - a mace-wielding mace was chasing a group of sailors with knives...

When Henry VII took out the 300 plate armored knights as the palace guards as a killer, and planned to drive out the enemy and take back the west gate, he encountered huge trouble-their way was blocked by the sailors who escaped...

Plate knights without speed are equivalent to heavy armored infantry. Kahn was also taken aback - if these 300 English guard knights were allowed to rush on the street, his fierce brother would also be knocked away...

But it was different now, with those hundreds of English sailors blocking the way, the English Guards knights had to stop. That way, they won't be able to get up.

Taking this opportunity, Kahn brandished his mace, drove the sailors, and continued to attack the English Guards cavalry. But at this time, Kahn did not continue to charge. After all, there are three hundred plate armor knights on the opposite side...

These knights are all ruthless men who have practiced martial arts since childhood. Although Kahn is fierce, it is no problem for one person to fight seven or eight, but facing three hundred - he will kneel...

After being with Marin for a long time, Kahn has also become a stingy person and refuses to suffer. He knows that there is a troop in the back that specializes in fighting knights-scout cavalry...

This time to attack the west gate, Marin sent the only 100 East Frisian guard knights of the First Army. In addition, 200 scout cavalry accompanied them. As for the other 300 scout cavalry, they actually went to monitor the east and south gates.

As for why they brought these 200 scout cavalry, because they have horses... It's convenient to rush in with the plate knights when the city gate opens... But Kahn knows - they also carry guns...

Seeing more than a hundred plate knights coming up behind, Kahn turned his head and saw 200 scout cavalry following the plate knights - they were all light cavalry, but they all carried at least two clockwork. musket...

"The gunman behind! Come forward and shoot the English knight on the opposite side!" Kahn called out loudly.

"Understood!" Mackensen, the head of the reconnaissance cavalry regiment, responded loudly. He also saw the 300 English knights across the street, and knew that the clockwork musket in his hand was their nemesis.

"Brothers of the knights in front of you, borrow your shoulders!" Mackenson said loudly. What he meant was that he wanted the guard knights, as human-shaped benches, to let the scout cavalry stand on their shoulders and shoot...their horses had been left outside the city gate before. If you want to hit those English guard knights, you can only stand up and play.

"No problem!" Kahn gave an order, and the East Frisian guard knights immediately acted as human-shaped benches, holding hands, allowing the scout cavalry to stand on their shoulders and help.

Then, across the hundreds of sailors in the middle, the scout cavalry stood on the shoulders of the guard knights and aimed at the English guard knight on the opposite side...

"No, quickly retreat!" The captain of the English Guards Knights who took the lead immediately wanted to turn around and run away.

However, the street is now crowded with too many people, and the captain of the Cavaliers can't do it even if he wants to stop his horse and turn around. Then he became the first hapless knight to be dismounted...

"The enemy has muskets again, retreat!" The knights panicked. But at this time, they were crowded with people and horses, and it was difficult for them to retreat.

At this time, a knight squad leader finally made the right choice, and he shouted:

"The back team becomes the front team, first turn around and retreat!"

Then, the person behind retreated first, and the knight in front had the opportunity to turn around and escape.

Seeing that the guard knights who were blocking the road in front ran away, the English sailors who were originally blocked continued to flee. Kahn, on the other hand, did not go after him, but took everyone back to lead the horse outside the city gate. He was not tired after fighting on foot for a while just now, but some of the other knights started to gasp for breath. After all, wearing a plate armor weighing dozens of kilograms, walking is indeed exhausting. Moreover, foot combat is also very inconvenient. But before leaving, Kahn sent the infantry and spears over and blocked the streets to prevent the British guard knights from coming back.

After Kahn returned to the street with the guard knights and scout cavalry of the First Army, he took the lead and rushed towards the palace. Soon, the army surrounded the Royal Palace of the Tower of London. The 300 English Guards Knights had retreated into the Tower of London Palace, intending to defend...
