Chapter 82: Raid on Dortmund Castle

"Sir Sir, in front of us is Dortmund Castle." Kevin pointed at the giant fortress that was vaguely visible in the distance, suppressing a trembling voice.

After all... that is Dortmund Castle! The place that rules the entire county of Dortmund, as long as it is occupied, the army of the lord here can send its own troops to the surrounding areas with Dortmund Castle as the center, and secure every village and town.

Take it into your own hands.

"What a majestic castle!" Sir Vane of the Knights of St. John couldn't help but exclaimed. He interacted with Carl and others, and this time he also served as the leader of the Knights of St. John.

Dortmund Castle is indeed a majestic castle. The towers are the solemn guards of this castle. They watch all invading enemies. The thick stone walls make people feel desperate. The countless marks of axes on the stone walls all tell the story.

The glory here is that the iron gates have fallen, and swords cannot break through its defenses.

The winding mountain road is the only entrance to this castle, and as long as they enter this mountain road, the high-ranking archery tower will not mind telling them what awe is.

The defenders on Dortmund Castle had already discovered them. After all, hundreds of troops had gathered and flags were flying in the battle formation. Archers standing more than ten meters high would not have missed it.

Every soldier was watching them nervously. If it weren't for the distance, they would have shot.

But they are not worried. After all, this majestic castle can repel any enemy who wants to occupy it. Every Florian believes in this. They have not seen the Dillman noble take over this place for so many years.

"Sir Sir, there don't seem to be many of them." Sir Vane squinted his eyes. Although he couldn't see clearly how many people were on the wall, he could clearly see the archers on the tower. There were only about forty or fifty, so he could tell at a glance.

, it can be known how many soldiers are left behind.

"Ha, thank you for that..." Before Kevin could finish his words, he was stopped by Karl's stern look.

Kevin knew he had made a mistake and quickly shut his mouth. If he continued talking, something big would happen.

"What?" Sir Wayne was a little confused, he felt something was wrong.

"Kevin wants to say that thanks to the disagreement between those Flo barbarians, the civil war broke out and all the soldiers were transferred away, otherwise we wouldn't have been given a chance!" Karl dismissed Vane's doubts in an understatement.

"This is the barbarism and stupidity of these Flor people. Only if they believe in the Lord, will the Lord bless and protect them." Sir Vane smiled, making the sign of the cross with a pious look on his face.

Karl was relieved. Just now, Kevin almost revealed his cooperation with the chief of Dortmund outright. This is amazing. No matter whether these religious knights like secular things or not, as long as they blaspheme God,

They will definitely go crazy. Now Karl doesn't dare to offend them and has to rely on their strength.

In fact, Karl not only agreed to cooperate with the Dortmund chief, but also cheated him. He also sent someone to contact the Dortmund chief privately and told him how many knights and retinues his side would send. This was why the Dortmund chief did not have time to inform Norma.

Under the premise of the chief, he suddenly decided to mobilize most of the troops in the hope of defeating Lopper's army in one fell swoop. What was originally a show and confrontation was faked by the chief of Dortmund.

"Sir Varn, will you fight with me?" Karl turned his attention to Sir Varn again. He was always a little worried about these religious knights.

"Dear Sir, as long as you are fighting against the heretics, the Knights of St. John will follow you, and our swords will be swung to spread the gospel of the Lord!" Sir Vane held down his sword, with a look on his face that ordinary people could not

The sacred feeling of understanding is generally the same for other members of the Knights of St. John. This is a group of beings who value the Lord more than anything else.

"Very good!" Karl nodded with satisfaction, then got off his horse, and the knights did the same. They were the party attacking the city, and the horses would not be of any use at this time, so the knights would fight on foot.

Don't underestimate the knights who fight on foot. The knights who are armed to the teeth are invulnerable. Their military training from childhood makes their swords unstoppable!

"Archers, apply asphalt!"

As Karl gave the order, several strong men carrying barrels of asphalt placed the barrels on the ground with a bang, and the archers who had rehearsed for a long time quickly surrounded them and poured these black and sticky substances that made people unable to help but drink.

Some disgusting substances were smeared on their arrows. Of course, they couldn't pick up these things with their hands, they just inserted the arrows and rolled them around a few times.

"Sir Sir, this stuff doesn't smell very good." Sir Vane frowned. Although he was not a mysophobic person, he felt a little disgusted at this moment.

"Believe me Sir Varn, you will like it. You said it doesn't smell good, but in my nose it is more wonderful than anything else. The enemy will tremble in front of it." Karl laughed, as long as

If he could win, he would admit it even if it was shit.

"Is this thing really useful?" Sir Vane was deeply doubtful. Do you want to use this thing to make the other party stink to death?

"Don't worry, Sir Varn, I won't joke with my life." Karl said seriously. This is war, not a child's play. Once it fails, there is a high probability that he will be captured and killed.

"I hope you are right." Sir Vane smacked his lips. He had never seen fighting like this.

"Prepare the torches!"

Someone inside took out flints and a large bundle of torches. After a while, the torches lit up, making Karl and his party extremely conspicuous in the dark environment.

"What are those cowardly Dilmans doing? Are they a bunch of fools?" The Flor people on the city wall looked at each other, and the archers on the towers didn't understand the situation either.

Logically speaking, shouldn't the opponent try to hide themselves as much as possible to avoid being exposed to bows and arrows? There is no such thing, as if they are afraid that the defenders will not see the enemy.

"Hahaha, those who came to attack the city are a group of fools. In that case, there is nothing to worry about. We will catch them all when the time comes. Maybe we will be rewarded when the chief comes back!" A warrior-looking guy trembled.

Wearing the chain mail on his body, he walked in laughing.

The surrounding soldiers immediately showed envy, but this warrior had contentment in his eyes.

The Flor people are not like the Dilman people. Their iron smelting technology is not good, or even very poor. It's not that they can't make chain mail, but that kind of skill is too difficult. Even under such circumstances,

Not many sets were made, so at this moment, this warrior appears wearing a complete set of chain mail, why shouldn't it be enviable.

"Keep an eye on them all. Once they are within range, attack directly without any hesitation!" The Warriors issued their order. The chief of Dortmund was not here at this time, so he was the commander here.

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers nodded and focused their attention on Karl and his party again.

"Based on the time, Sylvia's side should have started fighting, but I don't know how well Sylvia and the others fought, and whether there were too many losses." Karl thought in his mind that they had not encountered anyone for so long.

With the news that Chief Dortmund has returned to support, one thing is certain, that is, Sylvia successfully dragged the opponent within the confines of Fort Carmel County, creating conditions for him.

"After all, it has to be as soon as possible!"

Sylvia will not hold on for long. According to his order, when things go wrong, they will choose to retreat and let those Florians bite the dog's hair.

"Light infantrymen, come on, hang up the long ladder or something for me!" Karl waved his long sword, and the hundreds of light infantrymen immediately raised their pitchforks and rushed towards the Dortmund Castle, while the enemy's archers were already there

Ready and ready.

They didn't want to die, but they had no choice. Behind them were the lords and knights who were watching eagerly. Once they retreated and fled, they would definitely encounter disaster.

"I'm sorry." Karl sighed secretly. The light infantry basically had no combat power and were completely cannon fodder. In fact, Karl did only use them as cannon fodder. He wanted these people to consume the enemy's arrows.

arrow, and hang everything on the long ladder. As long as we can do this, everything will be easy.

"Come on!" The light infantry were pushing each other. The farmers who were in the fields not long ago had no discipline at all. For them, all they had to do was follow the instructions above and walk to the destination.

As expected, this move is very effective. After all, there are not many archers in Dortmund Castle, and not all of them are sharpshooters. It often takes several arrows to kill an enemy, which makes it very difficult for them!

"Have you informed the chief?" The warrior from before frowned, pressed his hands on the city wall, and looked at the densely packed enemy troops below, and his expression finally changed a little. He never expected that there were so many enemies!

"A scout has been sent out. He will arrive as quickly as possible and report to the chief. When the chief comes back with his army, these people will all die!"

After hearing the warrior's question, someone immediately explained it to him.

"Very good, then before the chief comes back, we will definitely make Dortmund Castle impregnable!"

The guards were like angry children, one by one saying how they could win.

The warrior smiled but did not reply. He just frowned deeply. Everyone knew about the strength of Dortmund Castle. He recognized from the bottom of his heart that he could defeat the enemy with this castle. This was also the case.

I think so, but I don’t know why. I feel like my heart is always in a mess today, as if something bad is going to happen...
