Chapter 13: Soldiers approaching the city

"Report!" a general in gray armor knocked on the thick door and shouted loudly outside the door.

"Disappointment!" In the room, he pulled his palm from a delicate woman's chest, and the lord Berman of Ferry City ordered in an unpleasant cold voice: "Get in! Come on!"

The woman didn't seem to be happy, her lotus arm hung around His Majesty's neck, delicate and reluctant: "My lord..."

"Huh!" Berman, who was no longer interested, stepped on the woman who was tired of him, and the many golden chains hung on his body swayed, shining softly under the candlelight.

"My lord! The big event is not good... The troops stationed on the border to guard against the west, 300 infantry led by General Lille, all... the whole army is wiped out..." After entering the room, the general did not dare to raise his head, and said with his legs close together and bowing his head in a wailing voice .

"What?" Hearing that his general had been defeated and that so many soldiers had been lost, City Lord Berman suddenly sat up straight from his chair, his face shuddering with anger.

"I deployed 500 soldiers on the border! I was wiped out in just two days? Is it Mayne's army? Or Seris's army?" He slapped his big hand on the table and let out a crisp sound: "Lear this stupid pig! What does he eat?"

Yesterday he was still immersed in the joy that he had captured tens of thousands of Mayne civilians, and today he heard such a terrible news.

Originally, he thought that it would be at least ten days before the two countries separated the victory and defeat. At that time, he had also arranged the civilians who had been entrapped, and was ready to mobilize for the war.

Neither Seris nor Mayne, who was greatly injured, could retaliate against him immediately, at least until next year before a large-scale war could break out.

But in fact, he estimated that everything was wrong: the war broke out the day before yesterday, and today his field troops are almost wiped out...

"According to the report of the escaped soldiers... Yesterday afternoon, Serris's black cavalry bypassed the scouts and suddenly appeared on the flank of General Lille. General Lille was caught off guard and could only rush to fight. He himself died in the chaos. , The army, the army is also annihilated..." The general was embarrassed and reported the news he had just received.

"Didn't they just fought with Mayne's main force? Ah? Are Mayne's forces all fools? They were defeated without killing even a Serris? You tell me? Huh?" Berman City was thunderous. The Lord swept down the water glass and various utensils in front of him, and shouted loudly.

"My lord! According to the intelligence, Serris's cavalry is not many, only 300 men. If they think about it, they will not be able to deploy more troops to attack us. Maybe, it may just be a harassment. As long as we shrink our forces, we will retreat. There should be no danger in the defense of the city..." The general kneeling on the ground swallowed his saliva, retracted his gaze from the beauty who fell on the ground with her **** half exposed, and began to persuade him.

Berman was silent. He was weighing the pros and cons. If he shrank his troops now, it would be tantamount to giving up all the civilians looted before.

As long as Seris’s cavalry arrives, these civilians will soon return to their original residences and will not stay in the border of Ferry City at all.

Busy for nothing? Berman felt a little unwilling to do this kind of thing. But he had nothing to do with Serris' cavalry, so he was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

"Assemble all the troops immediately and guard the Ferry City! Get Lawnes for me!" Berman glanced at the kneeling general on the ground, waved his hand and angered the woman: "This bastard...rewarded you. !"

After weighing it, he felt that it would be safer to keep his roots. If the population is gone, he can find a chance to compete again, but if the city is lost, then he has no hope of comeback. So he decided to assemble his forces and wait for the opponent to arrive at Ferry City.

"My lord!" Hearing that she was thrown to a rude general, the beautiful woman who was sitting on the ground turned pale, screaming but didn't dare to move.

"Master Xie! Master Xie!" The general kneeling on the ground hurriedly bowed his head, with a lewd smile on his face and thanked him.

Without looking at the woman who was already crying, Berman City advocated opening his arms. Several surrounding maids stepped forward and hung the prepared armor on his somewhat fat body.

Soon, Lawnes, who was wearing leather armor and a strong figure, walked into Berman's City Lord's Mansion, with a long sword slung around his waist, looking majestic and majestic.

This General Lawnes is the commander of the Ferry City fleet, commanding the Ferry City fleet. He usually doesn't go ashore very much, and he is an out-and-out aquatic animal.

Seeing his subordinates, Berman immediately said: "Rauns! The cavalry of Serris is here! Let your people get ready!"

"I said earlier that you arrested those civilians to cause trouble to the upper body, and you would be condemned by the heavens if you did this kind of harm!" Lawnes snorted coldly while holding his chin up with his long sword.

"It's too late to say anything now! You do what you should do! I do what I should do!" Berman was a little dissatisfied with the arrogance of his subordinates, and yelled at the other person's chest with his fingers.

Lawnes watched Berman's fingers poking his chest, nodded blankly, took a step back and turned and left: "I will make the fleet ready to go to sea!"

"Sooner or later... I made you bastard!" Seeing Lawnes's back, Berman spit out a sigh of cursing.

…

Chris wiped the sword in his hand and looked up at the majestic Ferry City. This is not a castle, but a real city with a port.

Beside him, the war horse was snorting and bowing his head to graze. On the distant hillside, a group of refugees who had spontaneously organized to return home were surging along the road to the horizon to the west.

From the departure to the present, five days have passed. In a few days, he rescued countless civilians who had been trapped here from the Eastern Plains of Mayne. Annihilated at least 350 soldiers from Dukou City.

The loss of 300 cavalry was not small, and a total of 50 men fell on the way forward. Because he didn't carry heavy weapons, Chris led the army to shoot dozens of battles with real swords and real guns.

"My lord!" Riding on a high-headed horse, Wagron's adjutant Coria took his reins next to Chris and said loudly: "The artillery has arrived!"

"Very good! Take a break! Start attacking Ferry City in the afternoon!" Chris knows that five days are already a lot of time, and he has no patience to spend it any longer and must end the battle immediately.

As for the fleet of Ferry City and the **** City Lord Berman, he was not in the mood to pay any attention to it. Even if the other party escaped this time, he and Berman will settle the accounts clearly in the future!

Chris waited all morning and finally waited for his main force. He personally supervised the artillery troops setting up positions under the city, and soon 20 artillery pieces lined up on the periphery of Dukou City, ready to fire.

"Let them see, what is the real war!" Chris rode on his horse, beyond the range of his bow and arrow, looking at the distant city wall of the ferry.

As his orders were conveyed, the cannons in the distance made a dull loud noise after another.

"Boom! Boom!" As if the earth was shaking, one shell after another flew to the distant target in the dull sound of thunder, and the devil's flowers bloomed on the wall of Dukou City.

The rubble spread with the shock wave of the explosion, the thick tumbling smoke filled everywhere, the walls were in a mess, and the earth trembles with the sound of cannons.

Chris squinted his eyes and watched the slow fragmentation and collapse of the walls of Ferry City. It was a pity that he didn't have a telescope to watch this magnificent scene carefully.

He didn't order anyone to persuade him to surrender, he just prepared his own attack, and then waited for Ferry City to open its doors to himself.

No one can resist the roar of the artillery. The fortifications of the cold weapon era will naturally fall apart under the blow of modern technology. The collapse of the enemy is only a matter of time, and there is no need for him to be anxious.

Just like the siege of Meyn Castle, a huge white flag was erected on the wall of Dukou City. In a world with magic, no soldiers are willing to fight against the "magic army".

"It seems that the courage of the other party, but it is so." Chris pressed the long sword around his waist and gave a not very high evaluation. With his legs clamped between his horse's belly, he slowly moved forward with his troops.

The gate of Ferry City was opened from inside, and the soldiers guarding the city knelt on either side of the gate, and they didn't even have the courage to look up at Chris. Chris didn't bother to care about these shrimp soldiers and crabs, and led the troops straight to the city lord's mansion in Ferry City.

…

"Huh, huh!" Berman, panting slightly, tore off the armor on his chest while running forward. His figure is already very bulky, but this time he looks even more puffy.

He was standing on the wall just now, waiting for the Serris soldiers with only a few hundred men to attack the city. He prepared tens of thousands of bows and arrows, as well as rolling stone wood, just waiting for Chris to lead his army to die.

But it was different from what he expected. The other party’s attack was a bit special...The city wall exploded inexplicably. After those strange neighs, the gravel and iron cut the bodies of everyone around, like a sword. Sharp.

He saw with his own eyes a soldier whose head was cut off by an iron piece, and his ears were hummed by the huge explosion. He couldn't hear the crying around him at all, which made him even more bewildered.

Until now, he has not recovered his hearing, he stumbled all the way out of the city wall, and the guards around him have disappeared.

He has only one thought left now: get out of here, stay away from those terrible explosions, and find a chance to make a comeback, so that he can come back and avenge today's arrow!
