Chapter 149: Attack and Defense of Tyrosh, a little after 2 p.m.
Siege warfare is very difficult for the attacker. If the city wall cannot be taken down by the first charge, there will be a second and third time. Once improper command leads to more casualties, it will have a great impact on morale, and there may even be a breakout of the army.
A situation that is about to collapse.
Therefore, there were not only attack bugles on the battlefield, but also behind the military formation, the various dukes brought military musicians and began to play music, most of which were based on snare drums and tambourines.
The most outstanding one is Dorne, which has a complete range of instruments and instruments. The Stormlands and the Reach often fought with Dorne before, but Robert did not let the three sides stand together. Dorne was sandwiched between the people of the North and the West.<
/p>
These two places are not very familiar with Dorne. When I heard the strange music of the Dornish people to boost their morale, I felt like they were snake charmers. The people from the West and the North were all confused when they heard it, and they did not dare to move around in the military formation.
, all of them have constipated faces.
The military formation was lined up from the West, Dorne, the North, the King's Army, the Riverlands, the Stormlands, and the Iron Islands. A large number of shield-bearing soldiers were in the front row, and behind them were soldiers holding wooden ladders. In addition to the messengers,
The king did not ride a horse. There is no need for cavalry on this island.
Many generals organized their formations and were worried that the siege losses would be huge. Without siege equipment, the siege would start just half a day after landing, and the battle would be extremely difficult. This is obviously not something a commander with combat experience can do.
What happened.
But both Robert and Barristan were experienced generals and would definitely not make such a mistake. Many people began to wonder whether Robert didn't like them and deliberately let them die.
Tens of thousands of people were ready to attack, but they still didn't get the order to attack. They didn't know what the king was doing, and the scene became more and more impatient.
Barristan was also very anxious. He took out his pocket watch to check the time and walked to Robert. "Your Majesty, it is already one o'clock in the afternoon."
Robert looked at the sky to the north, "Witt told me that Alda Wynn will be late every time. I have been late for an hour, but there is no sign yet!"
As long as Renly and Robert are on the same battlefield, they will always stay by Robert's side to protect him. Renly wears a slutty armor inlaid with gold carvings and green gems, showing off his wealth at all times.
Renly's eyesight was the best among those who knew about it. He searched the northern sky and suddenly saw a small dot that was different from the movement of a bird. He raised his hand and pointed to the sky, "Robert! Here he comes!" p>
Robert and several of the Kingsguard looked at the sky and saw the rapidly expanding dot clearly. They could now distinguish the body from the flapping wings.
Robert "Baralistan, the battle begins!"
"Yes, Your Majesty the King!" Barristan put on his helmet and began to give instructions to the herald. After receiving the order, the herald began to ride towards the troops on both sides.
"Stay where you are!"
"Stay where you are!"
"What? Is the enemy about to break through?" Many people asked this question.
"This is an island. The sea is blocked by us. Where can they break out? They must go out of the city to negotiate!"
The surrender letter that Robert sent before was completely burned by flames and stained with water when opened. It was impossible to read a single word! There was no way Robert could accept the surrender. He wanted to completely annex Tyrosh.
Just trying to maintain the dignity of the king.
All the soldiers in the front row have put their shields on the ground, and the pikemen in the back row are also ready for battle.
The giant dragon flying from the north is getting bigger and bigger, and many people have already seen it.
"Is that a dragon?"
"It's a dragon!"
"The dragon of Tyrosh? Come to attack us?"
Many soldiers have begun to waver, and the generals are also very uneasy. The king is still here, and they can only keep giving orders, "Stay where you are! Maintain the formation!"
The defenders on the city wall also saw it, and they couldn't guess which side the dragon belonged to, so the Tattered Prince was very determined, "Feng Chui Tuan retreat off the city wall! Quick! Quick!"
When the dragon approached Tyrosh, it turned a corner in the air and flew from west to east, which is also the direction in which a row of city walls was built.
There is only a distance of 300 meters between the attacker and the defender. It is too late to escape in front of the dragon. People on both sides hope that the dragon's dragon flames will spray onto each other.
ag~~~~~~
A huge roar spread across the battlefield, and a huge figure that covered the sky and sun appeared, and the golden-red dragon flames illuminated the battlefield even in the daytime.
The raging and bursting dragon flames sprayed onto the city wall. The city wall was like paper, and everything swept by the dragon flames was destroyed. The rubble flew and the flames raged. A continuous blast of dragon flames turned hundreds of meters of city walls into ashes in an instant.
Ruins.
The soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms were very close to the giant dragon. Only then could they feel the dragon's huge size and their own insignificance, feeling that the width of their wings alone could span the entire battlefield.
Another puff of dragon flame swept through, and after the defenders on the city wall shot a few indifferent bows and arrows, they were turned into ashes and scattered into the air together with the gravel. The cries and wailings of the defenders who were still alive were heard.
The news reached the Seven Nations Army.
Witte "Oda Weiying, turn around and come back and spray again, then go to the inner city!"
There were already cheers on the ground.
"It's our dragon!"
"There is someone at the head of the dragon!"
"Long live the King!"
How to fight this siege? The city wall and the defenders are gone, just go in and fight! The cheering soldiers turned around when they saw the dragon flying over the city wall, and sprayed two more mouthfuls of dragon fire at the city wall.
The city wall built by Tyroshi based on the terrain is less than one kilometer in total, and now there are four hundred-meter-long gaps. The defenders are overwhelmed and are running for their lives.
Robert laughed and shouted "All troops attack!"
After shouting, he picked up his warhammer and started charging toward Tyrosh City.
"Attack!"
The royal troops immediately followed and caught up with the king with weapons.
Oberon saw the dragon and knew that the man on the dragon's head was Werther. Dragons have been extinct for more than a hundred years. For generations, people in Westeros have not seen what a real dragon looks like. They have only seen it from books and pictures.
However, when a giant red and white dragon more than a hundred meters long appeared in front of them, no one could feel calm.
"Master?" Ashara Dayne opened her mouth wide.
Nymeria "That's him."
Aren't you shocked? No, many people are so shocked that they dare not speak. The pigs, horses, cattle, sheep and other livestock they are used to seeing are not enough to fill the teeth of this giant dragon in front of them.
Oberon saw Nymeria in black Valyrian steel armor, raised his spear, turned around and shouted to the Dornish soldiers behind him, "Nymeria is commanding this battle!"
Nymeria looked at Oberon in surprise. Oberon only nodded to her and said nothing else.
"People of Dorne! Charge to the third gap!" Nymeria no longer hesitated and immediately took up the responsibility of commanding the battle.
"Kill!"
The royal troops in the middle of the formation moved, and other troops immediately followed. Now is the time to show the courage of the knights. Whoever is the first to rush into the city wall tower will be the first! Except for the dragon in the sky.
"Attack!"
"Attack!"
"Go!"
"Kill the Tyrosh bastard!"
The shouts on the battlefield were loud, the dragons danced wildly in the sky, and the Seventh Army was as powerful as a rainbow!
Witte and Audaweiying soon arrived near the inner city.
Witte "Oda Weiying! Attack the tower in the inner city first, be careful of the heavy crossbow!"
The dragon's head quickly lowered, and its wings swung twice and then tightened, changing from level flight to diving towards the inner city in an instant. Witte held the horns tightly with both hands.
The ability to fight in the sky with the dragon knight depends on the physical fitness of the dragon knight. If a child controls a dragon, he will be thrown out with a slight change of direction. The dragon can only fly levelly, and its combat effectiveness is greatly reduced.
Werther has a perverted physique brought by the system, and his magic is not afraid of being thrown away. He can fly Audawei Ying in the air as he pleases. No matter how large a maneuver he makes, Werther can still hold on to his horns and stand on the dragon's head. p>
The inner city wall is much shorter, and Aoda Weiying sprayed a puff of dragon flame to create a big gap in the wall.
Witte pulled out the bloody Scar blade from his back and slapped the horn on its head hard with the blade of the sword. "Your battle is over. Go play in the sky. I'll go down by myself!"
Audaweiying fluttered his wings and began to climb. Witte walked to the dragon's head and grabbed the scales next to its eye sockets to observe the battle below.
The inner city wall was destroyed, and there was a sea of fire inside. The outer city wall had four long gaps and was completely useless. Soldiers from the Seven Kingdoms were chasing down the Tyroshi soldiers who had not had time to evacuate to the inner city. The streets everywhere were crowded.
With the death of everyone, Tyrosh is doomed.
Finding a place where a large number of Tyrosh soldiers gathered, Witte jumped from the dragon's head, adjusted his posture in the air and dived towards the crowd.
Jaime Lannister was very annoyed, but his son and nephew Donny Sarsfield followed.
The soldiers in the Western Region all know that he is James' knight squire. He usually does not receive any punishment when he commits crimes. Everyone speculates that his mother had an affair with James and that he is James' illegitimate son. Everyone knows what he is going to do.
Don't dare to stop him.
Now it is an urban battle. In the narrow streets, the numerical advantage is reduced. There is a large group of Tyroshi soldiers and their mercenaries blocking the road ahead. Jaime is temporarily defending and has to wait for the surrounding Western troops to surround the enemy.
Then we started to attack.
The soldiers of the West are fighting at the front. James was supposed to go forward, but now he can only stay with Donny Sarsfield and let the hound temporarily lead the team.
Donny Sarsfield held a long sword and looked at the fighting ahead. He couldn't squeeze in, so he walked into a house next to the street
"I'm here to see if there are any deserters hiding inside! What's going on here? Why are there so many flat-haired beasts?"
Donny Sarsfield took the sword and started hacking.
A large group of animals ran out of the room, making the room noisy.
Bang~~~The sound of landing.
"Need help? Sir Jaime!"
James turned around when he heard the voice. He still remembered Werther's voice. He saw Werther wearing a full set of white plate armor and an antler helmet. He looked like young Robert. His body was also shining with colorful magic light, and he was holding a black weapon.
The giant sword stood on the low wall beside him, looking down at James with a smile.
"Thank you very much!"
However, looking at it from James's height, there was a chicken's neck protruding from under Werther's feet. The chicken's head was hanging crookedly on the wall, and it was already dead.
