The city defense of Turin City did become a bit strange at this time with the components and materials of the Zhao Fubo belt. The city walls all have spires, and all places cannot be directly attacked by feather arrows. These spires are just logs, connected together by bamboo shoots and rivets, but there is a thin layer of sandbags on the surface and a layer of floor tiles on the surface.

Although it can be said to be quite simple, the defense ability of this thing is still very high. At least the attack of bows and arrows and rockets is not a problem for them. Even if the "asphalt bomb" is used to attack, it will at most just push down the floor tiles on the roof. Small stone projectiles will not cause any trouble to them. The only thing is the heavy stone projectiles thrown by the heavy stone thrower.

Only they can smash the entire roof or even directly smash it. However, even if they are hit like this, the people under the roof should be safe. In addition, it is very easy to repair these roofs. Under Amina's supervision, many "roofs" formed by these connected pieces have been prepared in the city walls of Turin.

Some fortress-style fortresses or artillery towers outside the city stand in the field. They are about 100 meters away from the walls of the Turin City. They can be protected by the "reincarnation cannons" in the head of the Turin city during combat. These "artillery towers" do not have an entrance. At the same time, under the protection of the four-sided trenches, the entire artillery tower is like an isolated island in the ocean. In the middle of the deep trenches, there is a small bridge connecting the artillery towers and underground passages. These sturdy artillery towers are built with large cement-bonded stones, each with heavy and strong.

They are all round with a diameter of 20 meters. Each floor is equipped with four "Caiser Crossbows" and there are multiple shooting ports in one floor. Several archers are arranged here at the same time, forming cross-fire with other "artifact towers" nearby at a distance of 150 meters. The top of the artillery tower is also covered with a thick roof, but due to local problems, they do not have more spare parts here. Most importantly, these wilderness bunkers and the connecting passages have enough gunpowder. If these artillery towers are captured, the soldiers who have been guarding the entrance of the cave will ignite these gunpowder to close these passages, and at the same time, these bunkers cannot become the enemy's advance base for attacking the city.

Behind them are some adobe low walls with wooden stakes, which extend like pillars from under the city wall to near the artillery tower in front. The distance between these low walls is quite narrow, which is a means to prevent arrow towers, stone throwers or siege rams from approaching the city walls. If you want to enter the city, you have to dismantle all these things. You don’t have to do it really, just think about it. The price you need to pay to demolish these low walls is definitely quite heavy.

In fact, they didn't know that there were many mechanisms in the narrow roads between these low walls. For example, there were many traps such as nails, bamboo crossbows, rope covers, etc. Even looking from afar, you can see that the gates of Turin City were not closed. Although no one was in and out, the wall was wide open, which made people wonder.

"Do they have any conspiracy?"

Pope Innocent IV turned his face and asked the people who were following him nearby. Although Pope Innocent IV would not fight, he was also wearing a set of armor with a crown. Naturally, the nobles and kings around him were also wearing extremely gorgeous armor, with the helmets and people fixed with ostrich feathers or other bird feathers. Henry VII was not with him.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid they have set up an ambush in the urn. I guess if our cavalry entered the city along the uncovered road facing the city gate, then they only need to pass the gate of the inner city and put down the thousand-jin gate, then our people will have no way to go!"

Pope Innocent IV, who was not familiar with the war, nodded slowly as Henry VII's analysis. In a blink of an eye, he used those toy telescopes to look at the bunkers, and he found that these bunkers were not easy to be captured. Just looking at their solid walls and the big roof, you can see that the place was not easy to be captured.

"Then they, Henry, what are you going to deal with those little stuffies, I'm worried..."

Henry VII did discuss with King John Henry III and Earl Artowa how to deal with the small fortresses. However, according to their understanding, these fortresses will not have much effect. After all, they have many stone throwers, and as long as they use the stone throwers to bombard them for a few days, all the people in the small fortresses will die. And if those small fortresses are occupied, they can also be used as bases for attack. As long as there are enough stone throwers and crossbows on the ground, they can cover the subsequent siege.

"Yes, your majesty, we have discussed it. But it will not cause us much trouble. It's just that the small fortresses are a little strange, and they have no entrances. Perhaps their entrances are all facing the wall, and they are well disguised. Before siege, we will try to break through these small fortresses first, and then launch a formal attack on Turin!"

Pope Innocent IV nodded and then turned his horse's head. Although his armor was quite gorgeous, and when the soldiers saw the figure of the soldiers, they would naturally be greatly boosted, it was too heavy. This made His Majesty the Pope, who had never done these things, unable to support him! On the way back, he ordered his close servant Henry VII to make all preparations and attack. After all, he was the commander of this army. If he did not give orders, then the attack would not be carried out.

"Henry told them that after they are ready to siege, they will report to me, and then they can start siege at any time. But everyone must be prepared and do this together!"

Henry VII was happy when he heard that Pope Innocent IV was told that he had planned to decentralize control of the battlefield. In this way, what he and the Earl of Artowa and others would be much easier to do.

"Of course, your majesty, as you wish!"

Pope Innocent IV was now impatient with the war. He wanted to return to his comfortable tent. If it were not necessary to face the battlefield, he would not want to stay for a minute.
