Chapter 188 Attacking the fortresses (3)

The Lombards panicked. They never thought that the enemy would dive down from the hillside behind to attack the farm. Such a tactic was something they had never seen before.77dus

"I'm fooled! The front is just a feint attack, leaving a few people to defend the front, and everyone else goes to the back wall to defend the enemy!" The commander of the Lombardy defender learned that the enemy had rushed out of the hillside of the rear wing, and then he realized that the "crazy attack" on the front was just to attract the attention of the defender.

The Lombardy defenders who were defending the front immediately assigned more than twenty people to turn to the back wall, but two wooden ladders had already built on the back wall.

The Lombardy guards who first arrived at the back wall tried to lift the wooden ladder that was on the wall, but the wooden ladder was brought down from a high place. Several soldiers had already stood on the other end of the wooden ladder and could not be lifted easily.

In a blink of an eye, the third wooden ladder and several long tree trunks were also built side by side, forming several wooden bridges connecting the hillside and the stone wall.

The Lombardy guards had to hurriedly raise their weapons and prepare to welcome the enemy who rushed over from above and from below...

On the hillside on the other side of the "wooden bridge", Yat used a round shield to block the arrows that occasionally shot from the farm mail tower, while calling on the soldiers beside him to rush towards the wooden ladder and wooden bridge.

The captain of the third squadron, Klaus, was the first to rush up the wooden ladder. He held a round shield in his left hand to resist the arrows obliquely above, and held a heavy axe in his right hand, and moved carefully and quickly towards the stone wall on the wooden ladder.

Thirty feet of distance arrived in an instant, and Klaus soon reached the stone wall at the end of the wooden ladder. Four Lombardy defenders were stretching out their short spears and sword axes to wait for Klaus to come.

Klaus paused for a moment, hoping to find the flaws of the Lombardy defenders behind the stone wall and then jumped over to fight.

In just a short moment, a soldier from the Fourth Squadron rushed over the wooden ladder next to him. The soldier without thinking that he directly protected his chest with a shield. He jumped and smashed into the Lombardy defenders. Then the slash of swords and blades sounded.

The soldier who rushed into the Lombardy defenders was indeed brave. Although he was stabbed in his thigh and abdomen by a short spear, he forced four or five Lombardy defenders to take a step back.

Seeing that the warriors who were rushing over were about to be surrounded and killed by the defenders who rushed up, Klaus stepped back and rushed forward with his rushing force, jumped up behind the warriors. While resisting the sword blades attacking from three sides for the warriors, he waved the heavy axe in his hand and slashed at the enemy.

Klaus, who had strong combat power, stabilized a small gap behind the stone wall. The siege soldiers on the hillside immediately seized the opportunity to enter one after another. Five or six siege soldiers who jumped onto the wall expanded a small hole that the seriously injured soldiers and Klaus had torn open together.

The good times didn't last long. Just as the hole was about to be torn apart, the commander of the Lombardy defender rushed over with three heavy infantry wearing thick half-body armor.

These Lombardy soldiers hiding in the "iron can" did not avoid the swords, axes and hammers of the siege soldiers. They carried heavy weapons such as page hammers and battle axes and smashed left and right at the break. The two siege soldiers were smashed to the ground on the spot, and the break was compressed little by little. The siege soldiers on the wooden ladder and wooden bridge behind could not jump into the wall as smoothly as before. They could only stand on the wooden ladder and wooden bridge holding shields waiting for the soldiers in front to die and jump into their vacancy, desperately maintaining the width of the gap.

There are many siege soldiers standing on the hillside on the other side. After all, the wooden ladder and wooden bridge are limited in load, so the people in front cannot fill in the people behind can only wait in a hurry.

For a moment, the unexpected back wall main attack battlefield fell into a stalemate...

On the front of the farm, two squadrons led by Odo stopped on the south bank of the stream.

There were no arrows shooting from the mail tower behind the stone wall of the farm, and the number of defenders on the wall suddenly decreased.

Although it is impossible to know the situation of the main attack on the battlefield of the back wall, Odo also guessed through the number of head guards in front that the Lombards had transferred most of the defenders to the back wall defense. I guess his own master was under a lot of pressure.

Odo pushed away the two soldiers who were holding their shields in front of him and shouted to Kazakh and Tridor Croger on both sides: "The enemy has transferred their troops to the back wall, and the resistance of their attacks must be very high. Guys, our mission is to attract the attention of the enemy. Now that the enemy ignores us, we have to move a little bit to let the Lombards pull the troops back to the front."

"The Lombards set up traps in this open space. For the sake of safety, I need to take people to lie down. Who would like to go with me?" Odo expected that since the Lombards dared to draw most of the defenders on the front to the back wall, in addition to concluding that the front was a fake feint, he must have left a conspiracy. Although the sergeant had known in advance about the general trap arrangement in the open space), he planned to personally lead a few warriors who were not afraid of death to go on a road.

After a moment of silence around him, several soldiers stood up, all of whom were from Kazak Squadron.

Seeing that no mercenaries around him stood up, Triddock stood up and stood up quickly. Roger was not willing to be outdone and stood up.

"Kazak and Triddock left to command the follow-up soldiers. Roger led the two of them around from the left. Remember to bypass the traps and pits that the adults said. I don't know if the Lombards have other traps, so be careful."

"Wei Yu, take your men and I through the middle, and you two protect me with your shields."

After saying that, Odo asked the soldiers carrying wooden ladders to put the wooden ladders on both sides of the stream to form several small wooden bridges. Odo and Roger crossed the stream from the left and the middle respectively, and then led their teams to slowly touch the farm...

After Odoroger and his two groups left, the remaining soldiers on the other side of the stream immediately followed the wooden ladder to the other side.

Fortunately, Yatt and his men came out to the farm in advance and recorded the possible safe route between the main entrance of the farm and the stream. When Odo and Roger slowly moved towards the main entrance with the arrows shot from the farm tower, they found no less than five horse pits and picket traps. If they had not known in advance that the enemy had set up a trap and charged wildly, they would not know how many people would fall into the pit and die.

Odo and the two groups walked through the traps without any danger. The Lombards on the wall began to throw stones and spears, and the two groups of Odo and the two groups could not continue to walk forward.

"Front attack!!!" Odo held his shield and turned his head and yelled at the army beside the stream.

Kazak led more than 20 soldiers carrying three wooden ladders and followed the road that Odo and his men took out quickly towards the main entrance of the farm.

This time, the soldiers siege the city head-on no longer screamed. They had to use all their strength to fight in the city later.

Seeing the enemy soldiers who were originally just feinting attacks on the other side of the stream, they rushed to the stone wall in a blink of an eye. Several Lombard soldiers who were left on the front of the defense were panicked. While they lifted the stones behind the wall and threw them under the wall, they shouted loudly to reinforce the front of the rear wing guards.

The commander of the Lombardy defender was even more panicked at this time. The enemy appeared on the back wall, which shocked him. Fortunately, he brought several close-fitting elite plate-armored infantry to suppress the gap and was in a stalemate. At this moment, he heard the enemy directly bypassing the trap and starting a strong attack. The Lombardy commander was also powerless to deal with it.

"Drag the enemy off the wall for me!" The commander loudly ordered his soldiers.

The Lombards knew that there were strong enemies on the front, and only by solving the enemy who came to the city behind the wall could they withdraw to support the front.

At this time of crisis, the Lombardy defenders also showed their due combat effectiveness, and the brave Klaus also retreated step by step under the pressure of several Lombardy infantry.

Yat did not expect that the Lombards would suddenly send out plate-armed infantry when the gap was about to break. Almost no one could harm these infantry in plate-armed.

Yat had already stood by the hillside and shot the arrow in his bag. He saw that the Lombards were about to extinguish the war at the gap in the back wall. If they could not establish a foothold, they would be driven off the wall. "Ron, don't you like to rush forward? There's a last chance, rush up with me to open the gap!!!"

Yat pulled out the knight's sword at his waist, jumped onto a wooden ladder, and ordered the soldiers who were waiting for the wall to jump back on the wooden ladder, then held the shield in his left hand and raised the sword in his right hand, ran towards the wall from the side of the hillside, and then jumped hard, crossed the wall and smashed it into the middle of the Lombards~

Ron and Tuba followed and hit the Lombards directly from different places, completely ignoring the sword, spear, sword and axe that pierced the Lombards in the sky.

This is also a forced force. Since he was shot at an outpost with Swabian, Att rarely put himself in the most dangerous situation, but at this time, it is not the time to worry about these things.

I saw Yat throw away the round shield pierced by the spear of the Lombardians. Before the man stood up from the ground, he swung the knight sword in his hand, cutting the calves of several enemy soldiers beside him, and then desperately blocking weapons from all directions...

On the front of the farm, three wooden ladders had steadily mounted on the wall. The soldiers under the wall held the wooden ladder in groups. At that time, the guards on the wall pushed away. Tridork and Kazak had already climbed more than half of the ladder. Lombardy soldiers above their heads were smashing stones on their heads. Several people quickly stopped climbing and protected their heads with round shields. The stones were blocked by shields, but fell and hit an escalator mercenary without an iron helmet under the wall, and their brains exploded on the spot.

Tridork glanced at the mercenary who was twitching on the ground, gritted his teeth and climbed a few steps, jumped into the wall, and took the lead in climbing the city...

"Everyone withdraws back to the inner castle, and the plate-armored infantry cut off the cover!" The moment Tridork appeared on the wall, the commander of the Lombardy defender knew that the exterior wall had fallen

Naturally, he did not lose the wisdom of a warrior at a critical moment. While the number of enemies climbed to the city was not large, he decisively ordered all Lombard soldiers to stop resisting the outer wall and retreat to the inner castle to defend.

The inner fort is a stronger place than the exterior wall, and it has already allowed people to move all the supplies needed for survival and combat, such as food, drinking, water, arrows and weapons, into the inner fort. As long as they stick to the inner fort, they can still survive until reinforcements arrive or the enemy retreats on their own.

Perhaps Yat would have to hit the door of the inner castle of this farm and be bleeding...
