Chapter 1514: Misjudgment

After some discussion, Lotte and his team sent troops to form this combat team and entered the forest to prepare to launch a small-scale battle with the other party, but the result surprised them. That is, the New Alliance Army did not use the favorable terrain of the forest to set up an ambush against them. In such a situation, there is nothing to say. It can only be said that such an arrangement is actually a mistake, that is, the other party has given up on this battlefield.

It was surprising that the opponent would give up the battlefield that was beneficial to him, but Lotte and the others quickly determined that this was because the enemy's troops were too few. Because they had too few troops, in order to preserve their strength, they simply made a tactical contraction and had no intention of starting a war on this battlefield.

Wang Ping couldn't help laughing and said to Lotte, "Governor, judging from this situation, we can save the Prime Minister without wasting our efforts."

After thinking carefully, Lotte thought about it for a while, and thought it was true, so he laughed and said, "It's true. It seems that we will definitely win this time!"

So Le Tian ordered all his men to enter the forest. He wanted to surround the enemy's castle, and the troops were at the city, forcing the enemy to hand over the Prime Minister Cheng. So the entire expedition camp entered the forest and headed straight to the No. 1 base of the New Alliance Army. However, what they didn't know was that when they were heading deep into the forest, a large number of the New Alliance Army appeared outside the forest.

Their appearance was not simply to stay here, but to restore some mazes and start some traps. They actually wanted to take advantage of this geographical advantage. Judging from this, it was clearly to cut off the retreat of Lotte's people and the others, and Lotte and the others were still unconscious at this moment.

Lotte and his men led this man and arrived at Base No. 1 without long. Looking at the fortress in front of him, Lotte and his face showed surprise. The castle in front of him really looked like it was difficult to attack. Not only was it steep, but the fortress could be clearly seen that more than half of the places were inside the mountain wall, and outside the mountain, only one-third of the part of it could be possible. This means that the castle does not require many people when defending, but it can contain enough supplies and even personnel. When encountering force majeure or excessively fierce attacks, they hid directly in the part of the stone wall.

And those who attacked outside the fortress took them at all

There is no way. When they try to climb up with this manpower, they can come out to fight again. Such a defense is really surprising and it also makes people feel that the situation is not good.

"A city wall like the Governor is not easy to attack!"

An officer showed a worried look on his face. It was not that he could not attack a castle like this. After all, according to what he learned, the entire New Alliance Army only had so many people. However, what this general was worried about was that to attack such a castle, he still didn't know how many casualties would be paid. This was actually the most important point.

If the casualties are very powerful, then they will suffer losses when fighting with major camps. In fact, not only does LeTian feel helpless at this time, but the other people like Lang Qing and Wang Ping are not very good-looking. In such a battle, no matter who is sent to go immediately, most of them will have to pay a huge casualty rate, because their subordinates are their foundation, and no one wants their subordinates to suffer too much casualties. Therefore, the current situation really makes people feel that it is very difficult to deal with.

So for the Hays Empire, this situation is really a very surprising thing. Lotte sighed and said, "It seems that we have underestimated this new alliance army, and we didn't expect that they would have such a strong defense."

Letian knew in his heart that he should have underestimated the new alliance army, but from the traces of this fortress, it can also be seen that this fortress was not built by them by themselves, but had existed for a long time, but was discovered and utilized by them. But the more this happened, the more difficult it was. As the governor of the East Camp, Letian naturally understands many things that ordinary people do not understand. Letian knew that in this world, in the past years, there were many powerful forces, and they left many puzzles in this world. If this castle was left by that era, then God knew that if it was a castle left by a large force in the past, then there must be many unpredictable weapons in it, which would be very difficult to deal with.

I think this is also one of the main reasons why the Liberty Alliance has never been able to do with this rebel army. Lotte decided to send a team of troops to tentatively attack. Although Lotte was vigilant, he could still make a decision on the current situation. If he did not send troops to try it out, how could he know the reality of the other party?

The local soldiers of the Hays Empire never retreated. When they fought in the east and under Lotte, they did not retreat when they encountered a strong enemy. Now they are facing a force or a

People's combat power, etc., are weaker than their own forces in all aspects. They just retreat when they see the other party's wall is relatively strong. That's not the reason, nor is they the style of their expedition to the East Camp.

"Let my men try it! My men have fought with them before, so they are somewhat familiar with them."

Wang Ping stood up and said that the reason he made was that his troops and his opponents had fought with him, and he might know his opponent better and had many conveniences.

Rotian agreed to Lang Qing's request for battle and asked Lang Qing's men to launch a tentative attack on the city wall to explore the opponent's reality. So at the command, Lang Qing's men began to attack the castle. Since it was a tentative attack, Lang Qing did not make any new tricks. Instead, he began to attack the city head with a catapult according to the traditional siege method, and then slowly approached the castle under the cover of the archers, preparing to attack the castle.

The catapult hit the top of the city, but the effect was not very large. This is mainly because not only most of the stone castle is inside the mountain, but also the exposed part is also tricky in the angle, so basically most of the catapults hit the mountain, which did not cause any damage to the castle itself, and there was nothing to do with the personnel.

So under the cover of the catapult, these siege teams were indeed close to the front line of the city wall. But then their offensive stopped because the city wall began to fire bows and arrows under the city. Although Lang Qing's archers under him had this upward shooting to cover, the two sides were from top to bottom and from bottom to top, and the shooting range and power were not at the same level.

After a hard battle, it was impossible to break through the rain of arrows on the city, so the attacking team erected a large shield again. This is also the conventional way of siege. When facing the attack on the city head, erected a large shield to block the attack, and then slowly pushed forward to cover the siege cars, arrow towers and other siege teams moving forward until they approached the city wall, set up a ladder, and collided with the city gate.

But when they raised the shield, they had a loud bang just now, and a shield was smashed through and smashed the soldiers holding the shield to death. It turned out that from above the castle, the New Alliance Army actually used a tool to smash the stones directly. The stones were obviously polished and all turned into a circle. Even if they failed to hit the target in one go, they would cause a large number of casualties when they rolled on the ground. It was really a very powerful defensive weapon.
