"Kill!!!" Before Kai rushed to the west gate, the fighting had been going on for almost ten minutes. At the gap in the west gate wall, hundreds of soldiers led by several Camelot knights blocked the gap, surrounding less than five people.
The rice gap was fought over and over again.
This is also a better aspect of the knight system. Any knight with the square flag has the power to command the troops. When necessary, they can take over the command. The command system is very flexible. After the explosion, the troops originally stationed around
The knight immediately used his power to organize the surrounding soldiers to block the gap, otherwise he would have been killed by the Sennods and entered the city.
After Kai arrived with his people, he did not immediately ask everyone to rush forward to add more troops. He only asked Gawain to bring some people to support him.
"Perino! Lead the troops to set up defenses around here, set up barricades, and arrange archers and crossbowmen!"
The current situation is that the morale of the Sennods has greatly increased because they opened a gap in the city wall. On the other hand, the Camelot side was able to temporarily prevent the Sennods from advancing solely because of their bravery.
.
As a commander, Kai naturally cannot rely on this sudden outburst. He needs a more stable and long-term plan. The city wall is broken, and he must resist the attack and find a way to block the hole. Now the entire Camelot has insufficient regular troops.
There are more than 5,000, but the enemy exceeds 30,000. If we don't risk the gap, they will be exhausted and unable to stop the Sennods.
With the addition of fresh troops, the morale of the Camelot soldiers who were blocking the gap immediately increased, and even pushed the Sennods back for a while. The gap was only that big, no matter how many Sennods were there,
He could only invest the same amount of troops as Camelot at one time, and Kai was not afraid of the gap being breached in a short period of time.
Kai stood at the back and watched coldly as the Sennods were suppressed back. Behind him, countless temporarily recruited people began to carry sandbags, stones, and wooden boards under the arrangement of the soldiers to build temporary structures.
Barricade.
Further back, longbows and hand crossbows were distributed to countless men. Under the leadership of professional soldiers, these men began to set up positions. The houses around the city wall were used, and people continued to climb on the roofs to form a full range of long-range attacks.
On the position and the city wall, the defenders who had suffered heavy losses due to the explosion also quickly completed their reinforcements with support and began to block the enemy troops from the top of the city wall.
About half an hour later, Perino led someone to Kai's side.
"Your Highness the Duke, the positions and barricades are ready."
Only then did Kai look away from the battlefield.
"Very well, tell Gawain to let them retreat and let the enemy in."
Someone said, you are talking nonsense. You are defending the city. The enemy has opened a gap in the city wall. Instead of closing the gap, you let the enemy in. This is a counterattack!
It would be wrong to think so. In fact, Kai has his own reasons for doing this. The gap is so big, even if Kai opens the gap, the enemy's troop strength will be very limited. On the contrary, if he opens the gap, it will be very difficult to attack Kai.
For them, it is liberation. It means their space becomes larger.
The position that Kai deployed at the gap was in the shape of a fan with the gap as the center. The farther toward the gap, the smaller the space became. Kai let people evacuate the gap and enter the position, which instead liberated their own forces and allowed them to increase their strength and strength in local areas.
Space presents advantages.
What's more, with so many people crowded together, Kai's long-range attack advantage cannot be used at all. Once the restrictions are relaxed, the archers and crossbowmen prepared by Kai can do their best, since the enemies are all crowded in the gap anyway.
, as long as you shoot the arrow over, you won’t be afraid of missing someone. What’s even better is that because of the city wall, the enemy’s long-range support is almost non-existent!
You can only hit people, but others can't hit you. Is there anything more enjoyable than this?
Of course, this situation is also based on Kai's immense confidence in his own strength, and he can turn the tide at critical moments. If someone else dared to play like this, it would be very easy for him to capsize!
Perino immediately sent the signal after receiving the order.
Gawain was killing happily at the front, but after getting the signal, he immediately abandoned his enemies and began to shout to the surrounding soldiers and comrades: "Everyone immediately cross cover and retreat! Quick! Quick! Quick!"
He didn't dare to delay. Kai had made it clear to him before that once the time came, it wouldn't matter if they retreated or not, the arrows would arrive on time.
Gawain doesn’t want to be shot into a hornet’s nest by his own people!
Following Gawain's order, all the fighting knights immediately and consciously began to direct the surrounding soldiers to retreat in an orderly manner. As long as the knights are there, there is no need to worry about the lack of grassroots command. They have a natural suppression of the soldiers, and any soldier knows that in
You must be right to hear the knight's command from what you see on the battlefield!
As Camelot's troops began to withdraw, the Sennods thought their offensive was working, and they began to rush into the city one by one. Perhaps it was because Camelot's previous resistance was too tenacious.
The Sennodians were holding their breath, so everyone wanted to rush into the city to make those Camelot people look good.
The gap is too small, there are too many people, and everyone is vying for the first place, which directly leads to congestion at the gap!
Seeing Gawain and the others leading the soldiers back to the prepared position, Kai no longer hesitated.
"Fire arrows!!!"
"Fire arrows!!!!!!" the herald kept repeating Kai's orders in various positions.
Bang!
A neat sound of bow strings vibrating sounded like thunder in the dark night.
Those Sennod soldiers who had just rushed into the city through the gap were overwhelmed by the overwhelming rain of arrows before they could clearly see the enemy's layout. The rain of arrows densely blocked all light.
The archer uses the power of the bow to send the arrow into the sky from bottom to top. When it reaches a certain height, the potential energy gradually disappears and draws a parabola. Adding the acceleration of gravity, from top to bottom, it shoots the arrow with all its strength to the target.
The standard leather armor worn by Senod soldiers could not block this attack at all.
The Sennod soldiers who rushed into the city were like harvested wheat, falling dead in pieces on the ground. After the first round of arrow rain passed, the ground was filled with arrows as if ears of wheat had grown again.
It's so densely packed that there's not even a place to stand.
The Sennod soldiers at the gap who watched helplessly as their companions were shot into a hornet's nest had no time to react before they were pushed into the city wall by their companions behind them who couldn't wait any longer.
At this time, the knights on Camelot's position were very tacit and stopped their own shooting. This was not out of sympathy or anything else, but simply to let more Sennods rush in before harvesting.
About ten seconds later, the Sennods once again piled up in the encirclement of the position.
"put!!!"
There was another hail of arrows! The process just now was completely completed. The Sennods were once again killed. Such a dense rain of arrows, coupled with the small space for the Sennods to move around, meant that even if they raised their shields
It can't defend against such a dense rain of arrows.
This time, the Sennods outside the city wall also began to notice the strangeness in the gap. However, the huge inertia still allowed a steady stream of Sennods to continue rushing into the gap. But what followed was still cold killing.
.Most of the Sennod soldiers were shot to death without even having a chance to fight the enemy in hand-to-hand combat.
***The author has something to say***
I have collected over 10,000 books. It is much faster than the last book. It is very good. Although it is still out of stock, it has made a lot of progress.
