Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 4: Battle of Jianmen Castle

Ronan's first night in the forest passed smoothly without any turbulence. When Ronan woke up, the bonfire had already been extinguished, leaving only a mass of ashes. He stood up and stretched his waist. Stiff limbs that slept all night.

Ronan put away the tent and moved on. Ronan didn't know the way, so he could only rely on the compass to keep going north, because the north of Jackdaw Forest is the Holy Cross Country. of.

The forest during the day is also very dark, because the top of the head is basically blocked by the canopy of the towering trees, and only sporadic sunlight penetrates through the gaps in the leaves. Bai Ze holds the compass in one hand and the knife handle at his waist carefully Walking, the hunting bow was also carried on his back at this time.

"Huh" A running rabbit was hit by a sharp arrow, and the powerful force directly pinned it to the ground. Ronan walked over, pulled out the arrow, picked up the rabbit, and put the arrow back into his backpack.

This is the third wild animal that Ronan killed. For some reason, there are not many wild animals here. After walking for a long time, Ronan only came across this rabbit and two unknown birds before, those two birds. The size was about the size of a duck, and it was flying over Ronan's head at the time. Ronan was not polite at all and directly pulled a bow and shot an arrow to send them back to the west. After they were simply handled by Ronan, they were thrown into the backpack and prepared At dinner, Ronan also learned that the items in the backpack will not spoil, but the backpack cannot put living things.

While Ronan was happily roasting the rabbit, the pursuit team led by Amuda had reached the edge of the Jackdaw Forest. Next to him, he cut branches with a knife like Ronan and followed Ronan's footsteps with difficulty.

On the other side, one kilometer in front of Jianmen Fort in the Rocky Valley, the army of the Eagle Kingdom has already stationed, and the camp is full of fireworks and cooking. On the long conference table in the Lord's Hall of Jianmen Castle, five nobles wearing luxurious silk and satin costumes are having a meeting.

"According to the reports of the spies, the Eagle Kingdom led the team this time with the chief of the Blue Wolf Clan, Mukai Blue Wolf, along with several small tribes such as the Furious Dragon Orcs, the Blood Fang Orcs, and the Brown Bear Clan.

The total number of the enemy is about 15,000 people. Although most of them are herders recruited temporarily, the eagle people live on nomadic herds. One to ten warriors.

And they're still adding reinforcements. Together with the noble coalition that had fled here, there were only nearly 8,000 people, and the professional soldiers were less than 3,000. The form was not optimistic. ' said a noble in a purple robe sitting on the left hand side of the main seat.

"Baron Bowen is right, the number of enemies is about twice as many as ours. Although we have a favorable geographical position and there are dozens of powerful knights in the castle, we still cannot take it lightly.

Jianmen Fort is the most important barrier for our country to defend the Eagle Kingdom. There is a plain behind Jianmen Fort. Once the city is broken, the Eagle will enter the hinterland of our country, so be sure to defend it.

Baron Bowen continues to detect the enemy's movements. Viscount John, you must gather your soldiers to prepare for defense. The enemy is likely to attack the city at night or at dawn tomorrow. Baron Hawley, you bring a few escorts and quickly go to the territory of the Grand Duke Tully in the rear for help, Bo. Baron Ge, you go directly back to the capital to face the Holy Spirit, report the situation to Your Majesty, and adjourn the meeting! ' said Earl Zach Blackthorn, who was seated in the main seat.

As the nobles left their seats to complete their respective tasks, the hall fell into silence again.

Contrary to what Earl Zack thought, Mukai did not wait. After about an hour after eating, he commanded the troops to move. The strong orcs put on crude armor and picked up wooden Shields, dozens of people carried the ladders in groups, followed by a mixed team of humans and orcs climbing the wall and archers.

Iron ore is scarce in the Eagle Kingdom, and most of the soldiers' armor is leather. Only some elite soldiers and officers and nobles can wear iron chain armor, so they are more eager for the mineral-rich Gaoling area, which is almost every few years. Attacked once, but Jianmen Fort has not yet been breached.

On the city wall, the defenders of Jianmen Fort have also been ready to fight. The leaders are Viscount John who has already put on a full set of knight plate armor and a very tall knight. He is probably nearly 2.3 meters tall. The other soldiers are half taller. He wears a barrel-shaped helmet on his head, and his visor is full of holes. He wears heavy silver plate armor on the upper body, and the same silver armor skirt and leggings on the lower body. There are also chain armor protection at the joints. , He was fully armed like a tin can, and behind him was wearing a dark red pattern with two battle axes crossed on it. The armor on his body was also covered with a cloth shirt with the same pattern, which was estimated to be his family crest.

In his hand he held a long-handled axe gun that was longer than his height. At the end of the axe handle was a thick weighted ball with some spikes on it, and at the head of the axe was an axe on one side and an awl on the other. There is also a spear-pointed axe on it. He just stood there leaning on the weapon in his hand, like a mountain, full of oppression, quite like a husband.

The Eagle's siege team has been assembled, UU reading www. uukanshu.com They stopped 300 meters in front of Jianmen Fort, and the leader was Mukai Canglang. Following his order, the team began to move slowly, and then they began to jog at a speed. Faster and faster, the arrows of the defending troops also fell.

Gaoling is mainly composed of cavalry and infantry, and there is no special archer unit. These archers are basically composed of auxiliary soldiers and temporarily recruited farmers. After the Eagles siege team approached, their archers caused certain casualties to the defenders.

Seeing that the archers were of little use, John immediately ordered them to retreat, put on a long contradiction card and stand by the battlements to prepare for defense. John also led a dozen knights wearing full armor and holding various weapons scattered on the city wall to command the battle.

As the ladder climbed up the city wall, the brutal battle of ascending the city began. The orc soldiers at the head held a shield in one hand and climbed the ladder in the other. There were also many soldiers below the ladder, preventing the guards from pushing it.

The soldiers on the ladder were constantly being hit by heavy objects such as stones thrown from it, and they fell to the ground with a groan of pain. When he was about to climb up the city wall, he was stabbed by the soldiers guarding the city with a spear, but some of the berserkers of the angry dragon orcs still rushed to the city wall and fought with the surrounding soldiers.

They let out deafening roars, their skins were bloodshot and red, and their eyes were bloodshot. They wore simple leather armor that only protected their torso, and they held crude mace, axe and other weapons in one blow. The soldiers around him flew out with their shields and others, and some of the wooden shields were directly smashed, and even the soldiers behind were killed directly.
