Chapter 47: Three cities in a row

boom!--

The two teams of iron streams collided fiercely!

The intersection of the two armies suddenly erupted with the sound of gold and iron, followed by countless roars, howls, and the muffled sound of falling horses!

All the miserable howls will be drowned by countless iron hooves in the blink of an eye,

In the first wave of collision between the two teams, countless Dornish people fell off their horses, but the formation of the storm heavy cavalry remained tight. Linn took the lead, and the spear in his hand turned into a sharp arrow. Anyone who stood in front of him would be smashed into pieces.

Cut open, the leading line of heavy cavalry remained extremely intact. Even if their companions fell off their horses, they didn't even look at them. They just leaned on the horse's back, holding their guns, gritting their teeth and galloping forward!

The Earl of Wangzhong City on the hill not far away, his face was so pale that there was no trace of blood. He watched helplessly as he spent countless gold coins and countless time to equip Dorne's best equipment and the best sand horses, which he had worked hard to build.

The cavalry were defeated one by one by the storm heavy cavalry, layer by layer!

"Rush over, rush over! Rush over!" Count Manwudi's whole body was trembling, and he was muttering something to himself. At the end of his words, his tone gradually increased, his cheeks twisted, and he almost shouted in a rage:

"Rush over!" His body was trembling and almost crumbling.

A guard grabbed him tightly and said in a deep voice: "Sir, calm down, they are rushing out!"

Manwudi looked up and sure enough, Dornish cavalry in twos and threes rushed out of the attack range of the black torrent, and then stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.

"Sir, you should lead them to rush towards Weir City immediately. The heavy cavalry from Stormland cannot catch up with us, and their light cavalry still need to turn their horses. This is the last chance!"

The earl trembled all over, "Yes, yes! Let's go quickly!"

After saying that, he cheered up and stopped looking at the result. He grabbed the reins of the horse and galloped towards the direction of Well City.

As he fled, the scattered cavalry also fled in the direction of the flag.

Lin En's spear swept across, and the spear was like a magic weapon. Both his body and the armor were cut open like pieces of paper. As the blood was splashed, the spear in his hand could not bear it and collapsed violently.

Break into pieces!

His expression remained unchanged, he casually took one off the horse and held it in his hand again.

This was not the first spear broken in his hand. To be precise, this was the third spear in this charge alone.

Although the spears made of ordinary fine iron are indestructible under his arrogant strength, the material itself is still unable to withstand the huge impact and often breaks into pieces. Several spears must be prepared for each battle.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Lin En prefers to use a war hammer, which is durable and suits his taste. However, when charging into the formation, the damage range is not as large as that of a spear.

Lin En had just changed his spear and had not taken a few steps forward when his eyes suddenly lightened up and there were no more enemies...

Pierced!

However, the queue still could not stop. The heavy cavalry charged in a tight formation. Whether Wu Chao accelerated or decelerated, he had to move slowly over a long distance.

The war horse didn't stop and continued to run forward until it was within a stone's throw of the horse, then it slowly slowed down and looked back.

Thousands of Dorne's cavalry were defeated by a charge from the First Banner Regiment. In addition, the Second Banner Regiment was under continuous killing from both sides, leaving less than 300 cavalry and fleeing into the distance.

"Goss! Go after him!" Linn pulled off his helmet and shouted loudly.

The horn sounded,

Goss led the Second Flag Regiment to turn around and pursue them.

Lin En led the heavy cavalry, regrouped their formation, and chased after them slowly, in a happy mood.

Unexpectedly, just after crossing the river, less than half of the troops on the Lianghe Peninsula were defeated in one battle. It was really an unexpected victory.

Based on prior information,

If Dorne's entire military strength is divided into three parts, the Mesopotamia Peninsula will definitely occupy one part. The three cities combined have more than 10,000 troops!

It also reflects how important this place is to Dorne!

Now four thousand elite troops were defeated by Lin En on the way. The troops that were still at a disadvantage immediately took advantage after the first battle.

If we concentrate our forces to capture the city of Weir, Dorne will have no usable troops in the Mesopotamia peninsula!

In the evening of that day, Linn came to the city of Weir,

When Goss chased him here, Count Manwudi had already entered the city. It can be seen that Dorne's light cavalry ran very fast indeed!

The cavalry of the Stormland, even the light cavalry, must be equipped with chain armor, longbows, scimitars, and some even need shields. In addition, the horses are indeed not as advantageous as Dorne's sand horses, so it is normal to be unable to catch up.

Lin En walked back and forth along the city wall, observing carefully.

The city wall, which is about ten meters high, is not too high. It is mostly made of earth and stone. Even the city gate is not that majestic. It can be seen that solidity is not its first goal, but prevention of wind and sand is.

It was indeed scary to be sprayed by the giant dragon!

Lin En did not attack the city directly, but set up camp to repair it.

The next day, Black Chongzi arrived with his five hundred Unsullied and two thousand new soldiers. After inspecting the city wall for a week, he began to cut wood, build ladders, and build vehicles.

They were probably very familiar with this process, and it was ready to be completed in less than a day.

At this time, it is best to have 5,000 to 8,000 soldiers defending the city of Weir. Black Insect only has 2,500 soldiers. No matter how you think about it, attacking the city is a difficult task.

But the Unsullied didn't have the slightest worry or fear,

On the third day, they began to siege the city. These soldiers formed a tight formation, held their shields high, and marched under the city wall without fear of any casualties. The siege ladder was set up, and the soldiers climbed up with their shields.

At the same time, Goss's light cavalry was divided into several groups and feinted around the city wall to attract their troops.

Black Chongzhi chose a few key locations to attack the city. No matter how many defenders there were, they couldn't all squeeze onto the city wall!

The Unsullied took the lead, and the soldiers they trained were equally brave. After three strong attacks, the battering ram actually broke open the city gate!

The infantry swarmed in, followed by the light cavalry. When Linn stepped into the city gate, it meant that the city was completely conquered!

Once at Weir City, Linn left the Unsullied to defend the city and clear out the remnants, and led his cavalry to storm the other two empty cities. In less than ten days, all three cities on the Mesopotamia Peninsula were captured.

After conquering three cities in a row, Lin En led his troops and personally arranged his troops on the banks of the South River, as if he was going to cross the river and storm Yronwood City!

After occupying the Two Rivers Peninsula, he had a strategic advantage. To the left, he could directly threaten Prince's Pass. As soon as he crossed the river to the south, he would reach the end of the Bone Road, Yronwood City!

Yronwood City is already the hinterland of Dorne. Once you capture it, you can cut Dorne in half by going south. If you choose to go west, you will find the real and core area of ​​Dorne. The Green Blood River Basin!

Therefore, it is extremely important. Attacking it will force Dorne to fight to the death!

Dorne hurriedly sent more troops to the city, and the troops in Yronwood City expanded rapidly.

At the same time, the princess of Dorne and the first heir to Sunspear and Dorne! Arianne Martell came to Yronwood City in person and sent a message to negotiate with Lyn.
