The drum sounded and the flag moved.
Countless soldiers, holding bags of mud and sand, rushed towards the artificial moat outside the Avalon Fortress under the cover of shield soldiers.
There is an artificial moat outside the city of Avalon Fortress, and the river water inside has long turned into a pool of stinky water.
In order to cover up these soldiers responsible for landfilling the moat, the siege crossbows and catapults in the Sheeran army began to show their power.
The soldiers who were standing in the back formation raised a white flag and pulled the rope suddenly let go of their hands.
Under the huge force of the machine, the wooden tips of the catapults suddenly straightened.
Stacks of stones were ejected into the air.
Then they passed countless different trajectories one after another and smashed towards Avalon Fortress separately.
These huge stones bombarded the city walls of the Avalon Fortress or the wilderness outside the fortress.
Under the bombardment of these boulders, huge pieces of smoke rose one after another, and the smoke spread out for a moment.
Several unlucky guys on the city wall were accidentally hit by a few pieces of gravel and were killed on the spot.
The giant siege crossbow in the Xilan army also showed its power with their catapults.
Crossbow arrows that were thicker than adult arms shot towards Avalon Fortress.
He thrust on the walls of the outer wall of the fortress, or flew over to the scalp of the soldiers on the wall.
The walls of Avalon Fortress are made of carefully cut limestone, and there are 8 brick belts crossing the structure, each brick belt about 0.4 meters thick. In addition to being used for decoration, these brick belts can also be used to strengthen the cohesion of the structure by tightening the rock surface and the core, and enhance the resistance of the city wall to earthquakes.
Therefore, even if it was hit by many huge rocks and crossbow arrows, the walls of Avalon Fortress were not shaken at all, and at most they only splashed out some gravel.
The Knights of Michael also have catapults and siege crossbows.
Therefore, after Sheeran's army launched a long-range strike with siege crossbows and catapults, the Knights of Michael also fought back without any weakness.
Huge rocks and crossbow arrows flew up from the inner wall of the fortress and rushed towards Xilan's army.
In addition to using catapults and siege crossbows, the crossbowmen arranged on the inner walls also began to fire bows and arrows at the soldiers who were filling the moat.
Despite the protection of shield soldiers, due to the dense rain of arrows, many arrows still pass through the gaps between shields, shooting the shield soldiers behind the shields or soldiers transporting mud and sand.
Because the catapults and siege crossbows of the Michael Knights were placed on the high inner walls, compared with the Sheeran army, the Michael Knights were shooting down while the Sheeran army shot upward.
Therefore, in terms of range, the Knights of Michael are still above the Sheeran army.
Although the soldiers of the two armies have not yet contacted, the bloody battle has begun.
The huge rocks and arrows of the two armies come and go.
Many soldiers from the Knights of Michael and Sheeran were hit by huge rocks or crossbow arrows, and shot into a pool of flesh-and-blooded meat sauce.
Under the cover of the shield soldiers, the moat of Avalon Fortress was finally filled with mud and sand.
Dominic set up the formation on a high ground, where it is conducive to command and dispatching the entire army.
After seeing that the moat of Avalon Fortress was finally filled, Dominic personally picked up the horn and blew the charge, inspiring the soldiers of the army to move forward bravely.
Countless Sheeran soldiers carried the ladder and pushed the siege carts and trampled on the ground, and rushed towards the Avalon Fortress.
"Shoot the arrow!"
After seeing the Sheeran soldiers entering the shooting range of the crossbow, black locusts rose up again from the inner wall of the Avalon Fortress.
The arrow rains are even more intense this time.
Before they rushed under the city wall, many Sheeran soldiers were shot and fell down.
And the Xilan army was not willing to be outdone.
It’s a pity that because the Michael Knights were shooting down and the Sheeran army shot upward, the results of the Sheeran army’s crossbowmen were not as brilliant as the results of the Michael Knights.
However, no matter how many of the crossbowmen of the Knights of Michael's Knights could do it, it could not prevent the Sheeran army from rushing under the outer wall of the fortress and boarding the ladder.
Ladders were laid on the city wall, and a soldier climbed upwards in the rain of arrows without hesitation.
The attack of the Sheeran army was extremely fierce, and more and more ladders were put on the city wall, and more and more soldiers began to climb up the city wall along the ladders.
But the Knights of Michael, who gathered with fierce generals, were not vegetarians.
...
...
The 1st War Zone of the Outer Wall (the 1st Army is responsible for).
"Drink!"
Raymond shouted violently, waved the huge axe in his hand, and chopped the ladder in front of him that had just been mounted on the city wall.
Under the heavy blow of Raymond, the upper part of the ladder was immediately split into pieces.
The soldier who was climbing up the ladder fell back to the ground with pity, and was seriously injured even if he didn't die.
Raymond's bravery greatly inspired the soldiers of the 1st Army responsible for the 1st War Zone.
In the 1st War Zone, more and more ladders were pushed down by the soldiers of the 1st Army whose morale was greatly encouraged.
...
...
The 2nd War Zone of the Outer Wall (the 2nd Army is responsible for it).
Nearly 10 Sheeran soldiers successfully climbed the walls of the Second War Zone along a ladder.
These Sheeran soldiers did not rush to attack the surrounding Knights soldiers.
Instead, they set up their huge shield that was nearly one person tall, and kept the ladder tightly, so that no Knight soldiers could get close to them, so that more Sheeran soldiers could go up from below to the city wall.
Because these soldiers were tightly erecting shields to defend, the soldiers of the 2nd Army around could not destroy the ladder immediately for a while, and could only watch more and more Sheeran soldiers climbed up the city wall along the ladder.
Just then—a black light flashed.
Samuel waved his chains to attack the Sheeran soldiers who were holding the ladder to death.
The black light enveloped these Sheeran soldiers.
The energy and destructive power of the heavy chains are amazing when swung at high speed.
After a while, Samuel knocked down the Sheeran soldiers with his chains, then rushed over and pulled out his knight's sword and chopped towards the ladder.
Under Samuel's slash, the ladder was successfully destroyed.
This Sheeran Army, which many people could not do anything about, was easily destroyed by the single-handed Samuel.
Like the soldiers of the 1st Army, the soldiers of the 2nd Army saw that their commanders were so brave, their morale and morale were greatly boosted.
Although Gary, the commander of the 3rd Army, and Dyle, the commander of the 4th Army, were not as brave as Raymond and Samuel, Gary and Dyle still pushed down ladders with their excellent command ability.
The sound of killing was shaking, and the strong smell of blood covered the walls of the Avalon Fortress, which was more than 4,000 meters long from east to west.
