And inside the surrounded tower, there was a flurry of movement. The guards in the fortress, who were well-dressed and well-armed, only tried to break out once; while the Free Army cavalry galloped across the fortress.
Under repeated attacks, the defeated army fled back hastily.
Therefore, as the commander of the Conté Army, Prince Federo, the sweat from his head had washed away the lead powder and rouge on his face; he undressed his tie and collar as if he was trapped in a trap
Running around like a beast, hissing and shouting, the name of the most trusted veteran, Langdogon.
It wasn't until someone couldn't help but tell him that General Rondogon, the deputy of the legion, had actually gone out with the knights from Besancon and never returned; then he suddenly stopped moving, with a look on his face.
Sluggish and lost, he fell down on the steps of the tower.
At this time, there seemed to be more and more enemy troops gathered outside, and at the same time they were shouting something loudly in the air. However, when Prince Federo looked carefully, he found that it was from Franche-Contéda.
Crown collar of the Knights of Besançon, unique flag and emblem.
However, these flags and honors representing the honor and dignity of the Knights were like garbage at the moment. They were thrown and stacked on the ground, and then allowed to be trampled by the cavalry in the dust and mud. Faced with this deliberate provocation.
, but the defenders in the fortress lost their fighting spirit.
They could only stand behind the earthen city slates and wall battlements, looking at each other in shock or with dull eyes; their morale dropped visibly to the naked eye. If it weren't for the escaped guards staring closely at them, maybe inside these fortresses
The defenders opened the door and surrendered as soon as possible.
Not to mention the neatly dressed attendants and servants who came with Master Phaedrus, or the members of the exclusive band and choir; at this moment, they were shivering and hiding in every corner of the castle, coating themselves with mud and filth.
On the face and body, pray to avoid some terrible encounter.
"Legion Commander! Look!" Until the surviving deputy captain of the Guards, he pulled Master Federo up again with excitement on his face, pointed in the direction of Dijon and shouted: "That's Burgundy in the city.
Flag of the legion, His Royal Highness Prince Kongté has sent troops to rescue you!"
Then, the Free Army soldiers who were besieged around the castle quickly turned around and formed several formations to meet the attack. In an instant, they were double-layered with spears, swords and shields, and several rows of firecrackers and crossbows.
The hollow square formation fought with the first wave of Burgundian cavalry.
And when these Burgundian cavalry thrust forward with spears, they were blocked and struggled in the front row for a moment by the spears that stabbed each other and the swords that slashed their legs and feet below;
The powerful crossbow knocked him down like falling leaves and threw him under his horse.
In the blink of an eye, several rounds of leading cavalry attacks collapsed; in vain, they left behind a pile of human and horse corpses, roaring away to both sides, leaving the battlefield to the large groups of infantry following behind. And these infantrymen all
Wearing plate and chain armor, holding a big sword and a long axe.
Like a silvery white surge, they scrambled to withstand the jagged rain of muskets and bullets that were hastily fired, slashing with all their strength, splitting the spear tips that were stabbing in front of them; in the blink of an eye, they rushed into the hollow square formation. Suddenly, from
The projectile thrown from the inside trapped them in the exploding fireworks.
When the bursting fire and smoke dissipated with the wind, only the bloody corpses and wounded lying on the ground were left among the interlocking lines. The surviving Burgundian hoplites screamed and turned around hastily.
While trying to escape, they were shot with fire cannons and their scattered figures fell down one after another.
Although they quickly reunited with their companions in the rear, reorganized their formation and launched several rounds of attacks again. However, faced with the obstruction of spears/swords, the continuous firing of firecrackers, and the bombardment of bombs thrown from time to time, in addition to letting the hollow
The phalanx shrunk somewhat, but still failed to achieve a breakthrough.
And Prince Federo in the tower was also sweating profusely with coercion and inducements and making many promises, so that he could drive the guards and guard soldiers to launch a breakout operation that cooperated inside and outside while the reinforcements were fighting on the outside. When he obviously
He overestimated the fighting spirit and fighting spirit of these subordinates.
Even though he was frothing at the mouth and said that he had dried his mouth, the nobles in the remaining guards hesitantly came up with various reasons and excuses to evade. However, the original guard soldiers in the fortress were loyal to his promise.
They were tempted, but Prince Federo did not trust them.
As a result, the precious opportunity was passed away bit by bit amid the continuous fighting on the outside and the hesitant pushing and blocking in the fortress. At the same time, Jiang Tian, who had gradually advanced to the bottom of the city as the army as a whole, also boarded the
Looking from the wall of a newly captured fortress.
Just around the largest fortress on the outskirts of the city in the distance, enemy reinforcements were constantly coming out from the city, and the main force of the Free Army continued to arrive; the interlaced attacks were endless. Apparently, in the large fortress with the legion flag, there were
People and things in the city are desperately trying to be rescued.
Therefore, they had to leave the cover and bonus of the city defense system and take the initiative to attack. They also fought with the slightly tired main force of the Free Army in a field battle that continued to add fuel to the fire. But in this case, the firearms unit
The resilience and long-lasting resistance can be fully brought into play.
Then, amidst the continuous cheers under the wall, as a small group of cavalry returned to clean up the battlefield, Jiang Tian also saw a group of enemy prisoners who were tied up and dragged behind the horses, stumbling and stumbling. It was only vaguely visible from their clothes.
Judging from the color of their robes, they all seem to have a certain status.
The most conspicuous among them is an old man with disheveled hair and an unkempt face. His whole body is soaked in dark red blood and covered with large sludge. But even if he is stripped of his armor and weapons, his eyes are still as sharp as an eagle. After seeing
At the moment when Jiang was stunned, he suddenly shouted:
"I am the dynasty's leader of the Champagne Corps, Count Adalbert of Meaux; as a member of the kingdom's nobility, I ask the knight king from the south to give me reciprocal treatment consistent with my status; and in accordance with the tradition of the kingdom, allow me to
The family raised ransom in exchange for personal freedom..."
"To be honest, you don't deserve it!" However, Jiang Tian just looked at him deeply and then said a few words lightly:
"What?" Adalbert, the commander of the Penang Army and Count of Meucheng, heard this and said in shock and anger: "Have you abandoned the honor and tradition of the knight class and fallen to the same level as those lowly untouchables?
Do you want to act recklessly regardless of your dignity and dignity?"
"No, I just never compromise with others, let alone easily forgive those who collude with others." Jiang Tian shook his head and said: Then he waved his hand, and there were more than a dozen corpses of enemy knights wearing heavy plate armor.
, he was carried over by the soldiers on the left and right and displayed in the open space.
Although most of these corpses have been mutilated or burned to black, it can be vaguely seen that under the cover of thick armor, these knight corpses not only have extremely thick body hair but also have unusually deformed limbs.
The head and face have obvious protrusions and deformations.
Apparently after the change of the celestial sphere, the Burgundian dynasty in the north, in order to obtain more sources of knights for blood inheritance, made some taboo attempts on the knights belonging to the dynasty; as a result, the bodies of the members of these knights were all
There are varying degrees of distortions that tend to be heterogeneous.
This is not a good sign. You must know that before this, the Free Army had sent people in the kingdom to widely publicize and inform the secretly hidden aliens in an attempt to destroy and pollute the blood and inheritance of the kingdom's knights; and in this way, they expressed their disapproval of everything.
Alien threats, no compromise.
But now it seems that the Burgundian dynasty in Seine City has taken advantage of certain changes represented by the changes in the celestial sphere to further intensify the secret merging and mutual use of aliens. However, the scene shown in front of them, for these captives
It also seems to have an impactful effect.
"Impossible!" "Absolutely impossible!" "This is slander and frame-up..." "I will never believe it." "This must be a forgery by you." Some people on the spot couldn't accept it, and shouted loudly one after another.
They yelled and defended themselves, but a few people remained silent.
However, Jiang Tian no longer cares whether they believe it or not; anyway, if nothing unexpected happens, these people will have to go to the mines and salt fields and spend the rest of their lives under strict supervision to contribute the last remaining value to the southern salvation government.
Just as he was about to wave his hand to be taken down.
Suddenly, there was an obvious vibration in the distance, which once again attracted the attention of most people. It was a series of earthquakes that caused the sand and soil of the city to fall. This was no longer a mass charge launched by the cavalry, but more like
It was the sound of footsteps of some kind of large creature that was continuing to move forward.
Then, a slowly moving hill appeared on the edge of the battlefield in the distance with the sound of large trees being broken and toppled. Although it seemed to be far away and moving slowly, not long after, the large hill in the battlefield
Most people have already seen the whole moving hill clearly.
It was an impressive giant monster more than ten meters tall with a stooped back and walking on both hands and feet. On its deformed and protruding back, there were even large areas of earth, rocks, trees, and grass and vegetation attached to it. In comparison, the previous Jiangtian
The tamed stone monster was as humble and ridiculous as a toy.
The appearance of this giant monster also caused an uproar in the two camps that were fighting. Most of the soldiers of the Free Army, under the orders of officers and veterans with experience in heterogeneous combat, took turns to cover and gradually left the battle.
, and the enemy on the opposite side had a similar reaction.
"That's great. My father really cherishes and cares for me. He even awakened this hidden existence." However, Master Federo, who was sitting on the fortress, showed an overjoyed expression, and faced his subordinates.
He shouted in a hoarse voice: "Quick, follow me to counterattack and break through immediately."
