Chapter 96 King of Siege

Out of concern for the city of Hamburg, Renault personally drove the dragon to the expeditionary force camp. More than a dozen senior officers, including Dahino, Merlin, and Moramon, came out of the camp to greet him.

The relationship between the two sides is now very delicate. The reason is very simple. The Fanos Legion on the same front is not directly under Renault.

This is a very strange phenomenon in War of the Gods.

In the War of the Gods, except for the army of Alcatraz, the other two sides seemed very complicated.

The relationship between the empires headed by the Red Stone Emperor is the most chaotic. First of all, there is instability among several empires such as the Amy Empire, the Mercenary Empire, the Holy Desert Empire, the Mountain Dwarf Kingdom, the Hami Kingdom, and the North Hami Kingdom.

These countries often had small-scale conflicts on the border a few years ago, but now they can sit together happily and call each other brothers, especially the middle and low-level border officers, who all have wounds left by each other.

, can you put your heart and soul into it after giving an order? Pao Ze died tragically in the hands of the other party, how can this hatred be so easy? Don't be ridiculous, if that is really the case, then he is a politician and not a soldier. So, everyone

In the God War, there was little effective coordination between the several imperial armies. Basically, each played its own role and beat its own drum to minimize internal friction.

Within the Amy Empire, they are divided into imperial troops and mercenaries, and the mercenaries headed by small mercenary groups can be divided into different factions such as forest elves, prairie elves, etc.

That's what it means to be hard to reconcile.

The party headed by Renault is divided into three independent forces: the Holy Holy See, the Myanmar Empire, and Fanos. There is no direct affiliation between them. If you must find an immediate boss, then it is probably the Temple of Light.

Well, it’s just that it’s impossible for the God of Light to intervene in the war of lower-level races. If that were the case, wouldn’t the 12 major gods in the sky have to fight among themselves first? And in the Fanos Army, it can be divided into Fanos Orcs and Fanos.

There are two major human forces, in addition to mercenaries, fugitive forces from the Hughes Empire, etc.

In addition to these three major forces, there are also dark elves, three other ancient nobles and other forces that are waiting for opportunities in the dark.

Among the three major forces, the one with the strongest overall strength is definitely the side of the Red Stone Emperor, while the weakest should be Alcatraz. However, the taboo of military strategists such as Duomen is most vividly displayed on the side of the Red Stone Emperor. Five or Six

There is a human king, three or four mercenary kings, a mountain dwarf king and a forest elf queen. In addition, because the mainland highway is occupied by many forces, effective contact cannot be made. Therefore, most of the time in the early and mid-term, the Red Stone Empire

They are all passively being beaten. The Western Emperor's side is better off. After all, there is a base camp being mobilized in the middle. Moreover, this war is a war of gods for the Fanos army. The orcs do not have high material requirements and do not have much.

Selfishness, relatively speaking, can still be kept neat and consistent.

Except for Dahino, all other local officers of Fanos maintain the highest respect for the descendants of gods.

The two parties have never met before, but it is still easy to find a human with white temples among the many orcs.

"Your Majesty, Marshal, your horse and horse are tired, thank you for your hard work." Renault jumped off the back of the red dragon, took a few steps up and held the warm hand of the soldier who was about to enter his twilight years. The red dragon instantly transformed into a cold-faced man.

The red-haired young man stood aside speechlessly. Even if the dragon transformed into a human, it still possessed supreme murderous intent. No one dared to approach it.

"Your Majesty the King is very polite. I feel sorry for you to come here in person after working so hard." Dahino's every move and every word and deed can be regarded as a model for the best soldiers. Of course, under this model-like appearance, it is not clear whether he is the same as he is on the outside.

It's easy to say, after all, Dahino was once an officer with chivalrous spirit.

Immediately, the enthusiastic old soldier introduced Renault to many officers under his command. When he introduced Moramon and Merlin, Renault showed a long-awaited look on his face. These are the four generals of the Western Expedition, and now they have tens of thousands of people.

Long identity.

It's strange to say that the orcs are not interested in most humans, including Renoir's cousin, who is also a dragon knight. However, for the human in his early 20s, the orc officers were instantly conquered by his sincere smile.

.

After entering the camp, Renault just said one thing - he hopes that the Dahino Army will conquer Hamburg City as soon as possible. The reason is very simple. The Red Stone Emperor will seal the dragon soon. Once the dragon seal is successful, then this most dangerous city in the world will be destroyed.

Under the protection of many dragon knights, it will truly become an unconquerable fortress.

In order to reduce the losses during the siege, Renault also specially sent the most powerful siege weapon in the world - a large ballista to the legion.

This kind of crossbow is six meters long and five meters wide. It has a crossbow arm made of pure steel with a diameter of 15 centimeters. The crossbow arrow is four meters long and is made of pure steel. The front crossbow tip is 50 centimeters long and has four barbs.

There are four front spines 20 centimeters behind the barbs, and the tail fins are made of four steel sheets. This weapon has an effective range of 500 meters and is specially used for siege. It can be fired directly into the city wall at a distance of 500 meters. If used with a crossbow,

An iron rope is attached to the tail wing of the arrow. After it is shot into the city wall, you can use horse power or manpower to pull the giant arrow down again. Each time you pull, it will bring down a large piece of city bricks. No matter how strong the city wall is, it will be pulled down quickly after repeated pulling.

collapse.

However, the cost is extremely high, especially the four-meter-long crossbow arrow, which needs to be formed at one time. This process places very high demands on craftsmen. Most ordinary individual crossbow arrows are cast from molten iron, and are also rolled from steel leaves.

, the crossbow arrows produced by these two methods are relatively soft, and may still be effective against ordinary city walls. Once faced with a pure granite city wall, even if the crossbow arrows are lucky enough to penetrate through the gaps in the granite city bricks, the four front thorns and

The four barbs were smoothed away by the granite in an instant, and it was no longer possible to work hard. Therefore, this kind of special crossbow arrow is completely forged by senior craftsmen at one time. It may not be possible to produce one even if it is forged 10 times, and each one costs as much as

500 gold coins.

An officer once commented on this kind of weapon: "Well, it's really good, but... it's just too expensive. It only costs half of the price. I might be able to bribe the defenders to open the city gate, and it only costs a quarter of the price."

With money, I can make my soldiers rush forward like crazy and capture the city. Isn't that the use of this thing?" Indeed, if a ballista is used in any battle, it is simply a competition to throw money.

Dahino has heard of this kind of sharp weapon, but has never seen it.

The old officer saw that Renault did not have such a weapon around him, and doubts appeared on his face.

"Oh, Your Majesty Marshal, we didn't have such sharp weapons originally, but after conquering Scambrai, we found 40 of them in the equipment warehouse of the Scambrai Empire military headquarters, and there were also 1,000 crossbow bolts. It is said that the entire Amy Empire

There are less than 100 crossbows. Three thousand-man teams have been arranged to escort these weapons. If there are no problems, they will be delivered to the city of Hamburg in two days."

Oh, the faces of the orc officers all showed expressions of realization. No wonder they had never heard such news before. They never expected to pick up such valuable goods. His Majesty Hongshi was simply too generous.

"By the way, Your Majesty Renoir, what is Yemoda doing now? The city of Hamburg that was lost in his hands should also be recovered in his hands." The Marshal said calmly and calmly.

In this case, the voice was not loud, and the room suddenly became quiet. Fanos officers all knew that the generals Yemoda and Dahino were at odds. After the loss of the hamburger, Yemoda was urgently recalled by the military headquarters. It is said that the officer

All titles will be deprived of him at one point. Your Excellency, the Marshal, is mentioning this person now. Listening to this tone and statement, why is it so obvious that he wants to excuse him?

Renault could not fail to hear what Orcs and Orcs were thinking about. A faint bitter smile appeared on the corner of the blond boy's mouth: "This matter was handled by the Chief of General Staff of the base camp personally. I... really don't know where he is.

Where, it is said that after losing the city of Hamburg, he and his sister-in-law and others failed to complete the mission, and it seemed that they were ordered to face the wall and think about it... The chief of general staff and Yemoda have a relatively close blood relationship, so I think it won't be too embarrassing.

Let him."

Outside, Renault is a majestic emperor, but in the family, there are too many people who are senior to him, especially some grandfathers who retired from the Golden Dragon Mercenary Group, and each one of them has entered the battle soul list.

Most of the old friends who fought side by side in those days were senior figures from various countries. In front of them, the younger generation had no say no matter what position they reached. What's more, in the Xi Dijun family, every dynasty fights for hegemony and clashes.

There is only one branch of the family in the foreground, but there are many people behind the scenes who are planning and responsible for the war. Even if you become the emperor of the largest empire in the Pancontinent, there is nothing to be proud of.

"Oh... Your Majesty, if possible, let me tell you something. The front line is short of manpower. It would be a waste to have an excellent combat force like the Dragon Knight facing the wall alone." Dahino heard something in Renault's words. As an excellent soldier,

, for politics, the most important thing is: don’t look at things you shouldn’t see, and don’t ask about things you shouldn’t ask. The same is true of Dahino’s nature. Even if a big secret is placed in front of him, he will only say this.

situation.

"Okay, I will try my best." Renoir did not want to stay too long. Scambrai will also gather his forces to launch an offensive against Jielin in the near future. As the coach of another front, he has more things to worry about.

Moreover, it has been a long time since Princess Bi's accident. According to reliable information, Amy has returned to the Dragon Sealing Terrace. Renault is still very enthusiastic about his sister. The Dragon Sealing Terrace is not far from here, so he must make time to go there anyway. Not long after, Renault stood up.

Farewell.

Not long after Renoir left, Yamamoto, the former captain of the Xuanqing Dragon Knights, and Teran, the former captain of the Floating Ice Port Theater Knights, fell from the sky. They originally set out from the imperial capital with Renoir. How dare two ordinary giant dragons

On par with the Holy Dragon, and because the Holy Dragon flies much faster, the two dragon knights arrived more than an hour late.

After the two dragon knights arrived, there was an issue that caused a small dispute at the meeting - about whether to mobilize civilians from the occupied areas as soon as possible.

This place is very close to the city of Hamburg. It is difficult for soldiers from the tropics to adapt to this cold weather. The best way is to light a fire to keep warm. However, in this mountainous area, these tasks consume much more physical energy than on the plains, and the impact on wood is

The consumption is also very high. If all these tasks are done by soldiers, it will be difficult to maintain good physical strength. There is also the manufacturing of siege equipment, which requires manpower, and the army is not a manufacturing workshop, so it is impossible to have such manpower to do these things.

.

Dahino looked at the chattering Moramon. Of course the old soldier knew that this was just an excuse that sounded quite real. For these Fanos officers, they were born to believe in the law of the jungle, from the mercenary empire to Xilin Island.

From the battle to the Battle of Duanbinggang, large-scale recruitment of Minzhuang to accompany the army was not done once or twice. Every time it was mentioned, there was a necessary and unavoidable reason for it. Of course, no officer would submit the reason for mobilizing Minzhuang to participate in the war.

Come up, it's just... When the war gets serious, there are thousands of civilians around, and even the veteran soldiers themselves can't guarantee that they can't use them.

Merlin whispered beside him - of course the voice was just loud enough for the Marshal to hear: "I heard that this city seems to be difficult to attack, and there seems to be a brave man like Da Qingshan defending the city. Norton has been defeated. How can we

Is it ok?"

Dahino didn't even bother to move his eyes. These guys are simple-minded people with well-developed limbs, so they can think of such little tricks.

"Okay, we will recruit 5,000 civilians and put them under the direct control of the Chinese Army." Everyone in the meeting room breathed a sigh of relief, especially the officers who knew something about the city of Hamburg.

During the second offensive and defensive battle of Hamburg, the organization of the Dahino Army was as follows:

Marshal Dahino, Merlin, Moramon, Yamamoto, Teran, the four legion commanders and 26 thousand-man commanders.

The legion directly under Dahino consists of 2,000 bearmen, 3,000 orcs, 2,000 werewolves, and 2,000 human soldiers;

Merlin Legion, 1000 Ursines, 2000 Orcs, 2000 Centaur Archers, 3000 Werewolves, 1000 Human Soldiers;

Mora Beast Legion, 1000 werebears, 1000 orcs, 2000 centaur archers, 4000 werewolves;

Yamamoto and Rand directly under the guard each have 500 people.

There are 300 priests; 115 pseudo-dragon knights; 124 magicians headed by three magisters (on the way).

Of course, Lin Yushang couldn't see this in the dense forest. For Lin Yushang, who appeared as a scout for the first time, what she saw was enough to shock her.
