When siegeing the city, the other party naturally should not fight back. Otherwise, "The Art of War" would not say "the method of siege is a last resort". It can be seen that since ancient times, siege has definitely been the most casualties and the most expensive way of combat. But when Zhao Fubo's place, when his military technology completely surpassed the times, all the methods of siege changed.

During this battle, their troops were originally weaker than the enemy. They added 7,500 people brought by Zhao Fubo from Corsica, 2,500 people brought by Conrad IV, and more than 40,000 people owned by Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II, totaling only more than 50,000. They actually dared to attack Turin. This was also the reason why the twelve dukes ridiculed the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and his men who came to the besiege of the city.

When Zhao Fubo arrived here, he used a total of 10,000 people to attack, while the Holy Roman Emperors Frederick II and Louis IX led all other troops to surround the entire Turin city, and even sent 20,000 cavalry to ambush outside as ambush points to attack aid.

The Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and Louis IX did not believe that Zhao Fubo could capture a city of 60,000 people with these musketeers. Without any else, they brought 5,000 soldiers to establish camps 500 meters away from the city. Under the city here, there were two square formations of 500 musketeers. After ten siege cars approached the city wall, the "reincarnation cannon" immediately stopped shooting.

The two square formations began to move slowly as Zhao Fubo's command. Among them, the 2,500 infantrymen from the five square formations began to run towards ten "lifting tower cars" according to their 250 men and one shooting formation.

Although the defenders in the tower could not open fire at the city, they took these things into consideration. When the "lifting carts" arrived at the edge of the city wall and just reached the height, they were already shouting at the defenders behind the city wall.

"They've kicked the city... They've kicked the city, hurry..."

As they shouted, the soldiers in the city held buckets, sandbags and other objects desperately trying to destroy the flames at the city. However, they soon discovered that these flames could not be extinguished with water. Even a large bucket of water washed down, and the black oil floated on the water surface not only continued to burn, but also carried the flames to the place where they followed the water flow. In desperation, they had to use a blanket to press and cover it with sand.

More archers rushed from the city, and the flames at the top of the city were quickly extinguished. Then the archers desperately shot waves of arrow rain under the city. A soldier with a spear and a long sword came to the city, staring at the "lifting carts" with his eyes, intending to fight with the soldiers coming out of it at any time.

Just as the first wave of arrows was shot down the city, suddenly, the enemy attacked the fortress under the city, and a bright light was shot. It was the large military searchlight that Zhao Fubo and others had. Compared with the small gas lamps used by civilians, the lamp had a larger diameter and was also farther through optical focus. The light column was naturally much brighter than that of ordinary small gas lamps. Because the reflector inside it was completely mercury-plated glass. The light it reflected could almost blind people's eyes when it was blinded by darkness.

The other 20 square arrays under the city began to suppress the dense firepower at the top of the city. On the first "lifting tower car", there was a 500-person rifle array on each side. They were divided into 4 waves to open fire, which could maintain continuous firepower suppression. The power of the rifle's fire-firing was immediately shown, and the archers who were shooting at the bottom of the city were caught off guard and were knocked down a lot.

Faced with an attack that had almost no firepower interruption and the light that was almost blinding the eyes, they could do anything. At this time, 500 musketeers from ten "lifting buildings" also began to carry out suppressed rapid fire at the top of the city. Compared with the soldiers outside the city, they had the advantage of expanding their horizons.

"Leave, leave the city, go down the city and shoot out!"

One of the twelve dukes poked his head out of the tower and waved his hands to shout desperately. He now understood that fighting against the enemy at this city was really a pity for death. Therefore, he wanted the archer to retreat to the city and shoot dense arrows out there, which could also kill the enemy outside the city.

As for the infantry guarding the city wall, they could squat behind the chest wall. As long as they did not show their heads, the enemy outside would have no way to hurt them. As long as they were entangled with the enemy's musketeers, the musketeers outside the city would be no longer a concern.

The news of the archer retreating from the city was immediately reported to outside the city.

"Hurry up... hurry up, the enemy's archer on the top of the city retreats, come to the city!"

The soldiers of the "lifting tower car" shouted downwards, and some people used the light signals in their hands to report the news from the city to Zhao Fubo in the "Forward Fortress" in the distance. Soon, a rapid advance of the military call sounded from the military camp. At the same time, the muskets who were running towards the "lifting tower car" also accelerated their speed under the rapid drum beat.

Almost at the same time, the defenders in the city quickly gathered a large group of archers, and they hurriedly arranged the team. Because when they were shooting blindly, they had to line up densely and relatively neatly for the distribution of arrow branches outside the city. All the defenders in the city were mobilized at this time, and they rushed to the city wall.

The infantry held spears and long swords and shields to fight against the soldiers in Yu Dengcheng. They knew that if the walls were occupied by those guys, the defense of the city would fail. And entanglement in the city walls was a consumption of the enemy's military power. The most important thing was that when they were entangled with the enemy, their muskets and those scary bombs would no longer work.

The cavalry were also mobilized in the sound of horse hooves. They rushed to the passage where the city wall could be, intending that if the battle conditions of the city wall were unfavorable, they would rush to the city wall from here to support. Infantry, especially the infantry coming from below the city wall, could not bring much strong armor and weapons. This is the appreciation of the city defense battle. Faced with such soldiers, the cavalry's whirlwind attack on the city wall can easily dismantle the enemy's strength in the city wall.

When the defenders in the city were ready to fire the first wave of arrows outside the city, the musketeers outside the city began to board the "lifting cart".
