Black Iron Crown

Chapter 718 The Fall of the City Wall

The balance of the war gradually tilted towards the imperial army. The soldiers of the imperial army fought bravely, and they were full of confidence in defeating the former defeated generals, while the soldiers of the jihad coalition army were even more afraid.

There were more defenders on the city wall than the imperial army, but they were unable to use their strength to lay siege to the imperial army. Instead, they were defeated by the soldiers under Leiner's command.

"No! They are too strong! We can't defeat them! Just like on the previous battlefield! All this is meaningless!"

"I want to go home alive! I can't lose my life here!"

"We can't defeat the enemy at all, they are too strong!"

The morale of the fighters of the jihadist coalition was getting lower and lower. Even with the encouragement of the Templars and the church sergeants, they still couldn't turn things around.

At the same time, more than 2,000 elite reinforcements composed of more templar knights and sergeants, as well as knights under the command of the lords and kings, were running towards the city wall at high speed.

The scale of the Lu Gaoyin Fortress is undoubtedly very large. The outer wall of the main castle is more than 200 meters away from the inner wall. It took these people more than 20 minutes to gather together and reach the city wall.

The battle became more and more fierce, and more imperial troops rushed up the city wall along the wells and ladders. At this time, they had escaped from the most dangerous time of siege, and there were comrades in front of them. Not many people could climb the ladders before the soldiers Time to attack them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The rushing cars kept hitting the city gate of Lu Gaoyin Fortress. At this time, the outermost layer of hoop iron wooden city gate was smashed into pieces, but there was still a layer of iron net behind this layer of wooden gate. City gate gate.

"The Scarlet Griffin Knights are ready, charge immediately once the city gate is broken!" Reiner said to Earl Valas who was standing beside him.

Earl Valas nodded, and immediately ran towards the Scarlet Griffin Knights, shouting: "The time has come to make contributions! Everyone, get ready to fight! We will rush in and kill them all when the city gate breaks open." Everyone!"

The battle on the city wall has reached the stage of tug-of-war. Many soldiers of the Jihad allied forces escaped or were squeezed down the stairs of the city wall. The elite reinforcements who could not effectively support the city wall could only watch helplessly as the space above the city wall was occupied by the imperial army.

"Turn around now! Immediately! Escapers die!"

The knights of the fiefs shouted loudly,

At the same time, they executed the deserters one by one, and used the weapons in their hands to help these coalition soldiers muster up their courage to face the enemies that they didn't want to face at all.

Left and right are also dead, if you run away you will be killed by the knights, if you don't run away you will be killed by the vicious enemies, since this is the case, it is better to fight the enemies, at least even if you die, you can get a reputation for fighting bravely.

Immediately, after the arrival of the "supervisor team", the offensive of the soldiers on the city wall suddenly slowed down. They suddenly found that only a few elites were still fighting, and most of the defenders whose fighting will had collapsed suddenly became crazy.

At this moment, these cowardly defenders seemed to no longer care about their own lives, and fought against the imperial army with extremely dangerous tactics, even if they paid the price of their lives, they would injure the soldiers of the empire.

In this short period of time, the casualties of the Imperial Army surged, and at the same time, the pace of advancement almost stagnated.

"Damn! Why did they suddenly become unafraid of death!"

Just when the soldiers were in a bitter fight, the rushing car in front of the city gate finally smashed the cast iron gate gate to pieces, leaving only a poor residue hanging on the top and crumbling.

Several soldiers operating the rush car hurriedly cleared the fallen iron gate, and then tried their best to move the rush car away.

"Not good! Our city gate has been broken!"

Only then did the support elites realize that the city gate had been completely destroyed. They hurried over to block the gap and prevent the imperial army from entering through the city gate.

"Knights! Charge!"

Earl Valas saw the opportunity in front of him at a glance, raised his lance and raised his arms and shouted, and then the first rider rushed out, more than 70 snow-colored griffin knights and more than 200 knights followed Behind him, he also rushed towards the open city gate.

The entire Scarlet Griffin Knights rushed towards the city gate like a red torrent, making a deafening sound that almost shook the heavens and the earth.

The distance of 200 meters is only 20 seconds for the cavalry, and they charge desperately at an extremely fast speed.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, the speed of the horse had reached its peak under the blessing of the charging distance. Before more elites blocked the gate, the Knights had already arrived at the gate under the leadership of Earl Valas.

Count Valas leveled the lance in his hand, as did the knights beside him, forming a plane composed of lances.

"not good!"

The pupils of all the elite troops blocking the city gate shrank suddenly, as if their hearts were tightly clenched by a big hand.

"Go back! Go back quickly..."

Before the people at the front could react effectively, the lances of the Scarlet Griffin Knights had already arrived. There was a deafening roar, and the lances in their hands snapped instantly, taking the lives of more than a dozen people.

Then there was the collision of war horses and the slashing of long swords. The entire city gate was like a bloody meat grinder, sending out a short and chilling symphony of death.

Immediately afterwards, the Knights rushed out of the city gate under the leadership of Earl Valas. Their equipment and tall war horses made the enemy helpless. Frantically crashing and slashing enemies on foot.

More than 500 knights all rushed into the city wall of the Lu Gaoyin Fortress. They quickly cleared the entire fortress square with their horses and long swords, and the only thing left in the city gate was the blurred bloody paste. .

"No! The enemy is rushing in! Let's run!" The soldiers resisting the imperial army on the city wall quickly lost their will to fight when they saw that the master knights were in such a mess and had no time to take care of themselves.

Why keep fighting when you can run away? They didn't think too much, they only knew that there was still a city wall behind them, as long as they escaped there, they could survive until the end of the war under the protection of others.

The Jihad soldiers on the city wall collapsed in an instant, like a pile of sand fortresses, falling apart.

Seeing that the enemy could no longer resist, the elites of the imperial army shouted and started chasing them. Like tigers descending from the mountain, they easily slaughtered the enemies like livestock.

"This..." Seeing the enemy's cavalry raging like this, and the city wall has completely fallen, the knights of the benefactors finally lost the motivation to resist. Although they are not afraid of death, having wives and children is always a concern. They don't want to It's so pointless to die.
