If the other party is doing this now, there must be a bigger move hidden behind it.
Akmesser immediately closed up its defense line and moved its main force to the right.
Akmeser did not immediately think that the leader of the Yongye Army wanted to abandon the city and escape. After all, the strategic location of Brother Port was here.
Once the Kingsley family captures Brothers Port, it means that the battle for the Swamp of Despair has come to an end. For this place, we must not give up unless we hold on to the last moment, unless the Eternal Night Army leaders are a group of idiots with incompetent tactics.
.
Judging from the previous series of battles, the senior leaders of the Yongye Army were not only not stupid, but also terrifyingly shrewd.
Therefore, Akmeser was thinking about what the Yongye Army Leader did from the perspective of a smart person.
The other side was trying to deceive others and wanted to launch its own surprise attack from above the Bazhu River and around behind them.
Although it is freezing cold now, the Danube and Bazhu rivers are both in the upper reaches, and the water flow is quite fast. There is also some ice, but it is not that severe. The building boats led by the Yong Ye Army can still travel on them.
Once you get behind them, if you are unprepared, you will definitely stab them hard.
But when Akmesser gathered his army back, something felt wrong again.
It is true that the Yongye Army led the city wall of Brother Port to create a fog of war, but there was no such thing on the Bazhu River. Building ships are not small targets, especially when transporting troops on a large scale. One up and one down is enough for Kingsley
After the family has completed the deployment of troops, it will become their beach blocking tactics. With the attack and defense changing hands, it is hard to say what kind of results they can achieve.
What exactly is the other party planning?
This time, it was Akmeser's turn to be a little confused. He left some elite troops behind to set up defenses along the river to prevent the Yongye Army from jumping over the wall in a hurry and stabbing the Kingsley family from here.
On the one hand, they sent more cannon fodder to extinguish the fire, extinguished the isolation fire zone as soon as possible, and investigated the movements of Yong Ye's military leader.
Even so, by the time the Kingsley family's army rushed up the city wall again, it was already two hours later.
This time there was basically no obstruction, only the scattered trebuchets in the city were showing off their power, but the ones thrown down were no longer black fire oil barrels, but ordinary boulders.
Although the lethality is still full, their number is too small, and the lethality caused is still limited.
"What? You said that the opponent's defenders had withdrawn?" When Akmesser got the news, he had already made some guesses before, but he was still a little stunned and unbelievable.
The Yongye Army Leader and the Crocodile Clan just gave up their defense of Brother Port.
"Let's go up to the city wall and have a look." Akmesser's expression changed several times before he finally made a decision.
The other party's behavior was so abnormal that he couldn't make an accurate assessment based only on the news delivered by the messenger. He had to see it with his own eyes.
"Marshal, be careful of fraud." Sir Kleist warned from the side.
Akmesser stopped and looked sideways at the military adviser, "How do you say that?"
Now not only did Archduke Buck look upon this knight with admiration, but even Alchemy had to take a high look at him.
When the grain transport line was attacked at night and everyone was guilty from top to bottom, he was the only one who had merit, even though he did nothing from beginning to end and didn't even touch a hair on the enemy's body.
However, he made an accurate judgment on the military actions of the Yong Ye army leader, and made relatively correct responses, which seemed to force them to retreat halfway, which can be regarded as a credit.
Of course, there is some intention of the Kingsley family to put money on their faces and use it as a fig leaf.
The reason why Archmesser looked at him differently was due to Sir Kleist's understanding of the leader of the Evernight Army, who might be able to help him in the attack and defense of Brother Port.
However, when he actually entered his tent and obeyed his orders, Sir Kleist began to hide his capabilities and bide his time. During the entire siege, he did not even say a word, let alone a strategy.
Having said that, the entire offensive and defensive battle was quite satisfactory. Neither side came up with many clever tricks, nor did they have any strategies to offer.
Unexpectedly, it finally came out.
Sir Kleist did not show off, and said with a worried look: "The marshal has seen with his own eyes the power of the explosives led by the Yongye Army. I'm afraid that the other party's retreat is fake and deceives the elite of the Kingsley family.
It is true to climb the city wall. If the opponent buries a large number of explosives under the city wall, wait until all the elites climb the wall, and then detonate them..."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Akmesser suddenly changed his face, and while galloping towards the city wall, he ordered loudly, "Ming Jin withdraws his troops, Ming Jin withdraws his troops, withdraw first, withdraw first."
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Akmeser's reaction was a step too late after all. Just as the gong was sounded to withdraw troops, a series of violent explosions were heard, which really shook the earth.
Thick smoke was billowing everywhere, and masonry and broken limbs were flying everywhere.
"Broken city, broken city, broken city..."
"Kingsley, Kingsley, Kingsley..."
"Akhmesser, Akmesser, Akmesser..."
"Trap, this is a trap, get out quickly! Get out quickly!"
"My legs, my legs are gone, who has seen my legs!"
"Ahhh...my arm, my arm..."
"Who...someone help me...move the stone...from my chest, I...can't breathe...can't breathe..."
"Help me, someone help me..."
The Kingsley family soldiers who were cheering excitedly after finding no enemies after climbing the city wall fell into doom on the spot, and their cheers turned into howls.
Because the people were too concentrated, the explosion was too sudden.
The lethality caused by this black powder explosion was quite astonishing, far exceeding the indiscriminate bombing of the city during the defense of the city.
The damage caused by this primary thermal weapon is already different from that of cold weapons.
Except for those unlucky ones who bear the brunt of the explosion, the proportion of direct deaths caused by black powder explosions is really small.
After all, the explosive power of black powder has always been unsatisfactory, especially when these traps hidden under the city wall were exploded. The first wave of impact had already been borne by the city wall itself. Those soldiers of the Kingsley family who had just rushed to the top of the city had to endure
Most of them were secondary impacts or splash damage, especially the heavy armor on their bodies, which somewhat blocked a lot of damage for them.
But the disability rate is quite high, with missing arms and legs everywhere.
Each one is in the ruins, wailing and looking for his or her severed limbs. The scene is more tragic and more shocking.
The only good thing is that the amount of black gunpowder led by Yong Ye's army was not enough to bury it under the entire Brother Port city wall. Instead, they chose to bury and blast it in places where it was easy to climb the city and gather people.
"kill!"
But the leader of the Evernight Army never prepares a separate trap.
Before the explosion here had completely subsided, there were already countless black-armored soldiers on the other side of the city wall, pouring out like a tide and killing the Kingsley family soldiers who were in a mess.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The first ones were obviously those armored war bears that made the soldiers of the Kingsley family change their expressions.
These war beasts have no place in defending the city. Their role is more in attacking and breaking formations.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
The ones sent out this time were not only armored war bears, but also Andis tigers whose size was not much different from ordinary giant bears.
These giant cats also wear tailor-made animal armor. Compared with the frontal impact of armored war bears, they prefer side attacks and are more agile in their movements. For them, the five or six meter high city wall is simply useless.
It's not an obstacle, you can go up with a slight leap.
The most important thing is that they are not war beasts, but mounts, and there is a life-harvesting machine on their backs. Even if they are not great knights, they are definitely knights at their peak.
"It's the war beast of the Yongye Army. I can't hold it, I can't resist it, I just dodge it, I just dodge it."
"Don't panic, organize defense on the spot, organize defense on the spot, we have geographical advantages!"
"No retreat, no one is allowed to retreat, hold on, hold them all up to me, anyone who retreats will die!"
"Whoever takes one step back will die, do you hear me...die for me...whoever takes one step back will suffer the same fate, please come forward."
"We can't stand it, we can't stand it. There are too many enemies. We are not retreating, we are reorganizing. Yes, we are reorganizing. We will come back after reorganizing."
"It's gold. This formation is gold. The marshal ordered us to retreat. This is the marshal's order for us to retreat. How dare you disobey the military order."
"Withdraw, everyone withdraw!"
The entire city wall of Brother Port was in chaos, with some preparing to stay in place to welcome the counterattack from Yong Ye's army leader.
Some were frightened by the series of explosions and the massive counterattack and prepared to retreat.
There are also people who are hesitant and don’t know what to do.
The hasty retreat order issued by Akmesser only exacerbated this point.
When Akmeser rushed out of the main formation and found that the situation was irreversible, he had already corrected the order in time and changed the order to a full-line attack.
You must not retreat at this time, otherwise under the counterattack of the Yong Ye Army Leader, the entire army will collapse. At that time, even if the God of Truth appears, there will be no way to contain the Kingsley family's defeat. It will only
A collapse of thousands of miles.
But in a short period of time, military orders were changed twice. This was definitely a fatal mistake.
There are soldiers executing the previous order, and there are soldiers executing the current order.
This conflict further exacerbates the confusion.
When this kind of chaos meets the charge of integrity, there is only one result - collapse.
Even those who did not collapse were a little unable to stand when they were charged by their own people, and then were charged by the Yongye Army leading the army from behind. They could only collapse and become a rout, attacking their own friendly forces.
, forming an out-and-out vicious cycle.
That kind of situation is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger. When it reaches a certain level, that is the moment when the true gods are unable to save themselves.
This is the evil result of the mixture of cannon fodder and elite members of the Kingsley family. These cannon fodder usually have no enterprising spirit, but now they are in danger and naturally run faster, becoming an out-and-out source of evil.
As you can imagine, Akmeser's face was as dark as a black. He was cautious and cautious throughout the entire offensive and defensive battle. However, a small oversight led to a complete collapse.
"Eastern Expeditionary Army, come closer to me!" If Akmesser accepts his fate easily, then he will not be called Akmesser. Even in the face of such a situation of total collapse, he will take his flag from the hands of his personal guards.
Snatched it.
The golden armor on his body was radiant, and at this moment it lived up to its name. The golden light rose into the sky, forming a golden phantom armor dozens of meters high.
This light spread to the commander's flag in his hand, and also formed a golden commander's flag that was not inferior to the golden shadow armor. It really is as conspicuous as it is.
At the same time, a vast amount of magical energy, centered on him, spread like a shock wave.
Wherever they passed, those Kingsley family soldiers who were in a state of panic and helplessness seemed to have found a backbone in an instant, and their anxious and chaotic moods involuntarily calmed down a lot.
Especially those soldiers of the Kingsley family who have left their soul mark on the golden armor and received blessings, this feeling is particularly profound, as if Akmeser's order directly echoed in their minds, "Conquer the Eastern Army, to the
I’m coming closer!”
Those long-trained soldiers of the Kingsley family couldn't help but begin to gather in the direction of Akmeser.
Within a few minutes, thousands of elites had gathered around Akmeser.
"Eastern Expedition Army, attack forward!" Commander Akmeser waved his flag and issued the second order.
The huge golden phantom armor, Akmesser only maintained it for a few seconds, attracting the attention of everyone on the battlefield, and then canceled it.
The consumption of that thing is really terrifying. Even Akmesel, who is not sensitive to magic energy, can clearly feel the crazy consumption of magic energy on the golden armor.
However, the phantom of the handsome flag is still maintained. It serves as a prominent landmark to help the elite Kingsley family rally to themselves to deal with the collapse of the situation and the enemy's crazy counterattack.
"Is this the real power of the battle artifact?" Sean, who was riding a black collar high in the sky and looking at the overall situation, couldn't help but widen his eyes, with ten thousand alpacas galloping past in his heart.
He knew that once it was related to the power of magic, especially the power of magic that could not be measured with numbers, everything would become abnormal, so he had fully estimated the power of the battle artifact from a high level.
But now it seems that they still underestimated the magic and power of the battle artifact.
What he just felt clearly was that the energy shock wave emitted by the golden armor had a band similar to hypnosis and brainwashing, thus achieving a calming effect.
At this moment, Sean's thinking even wandered. Could it be that the sword of courage of the Lancelot royal family used similar means to brainwash the soldiers under his command, so as to achieve the goal of giving a farmer the same courage as an elite soldier?
Effect?
However, the bright handsome flag also pointed the direction for Sean, flying directly over him, and threw the black powder cluster bomb in his hand at once.
boom!
This is a black powder cluster bomb weighing 200 kilograms, with ten gemstone bombs bundled inside.
The quantity is large and the power is comparable to that of small missiles.
Sean could clearly feel the shock wave generated during the explosion, even at an altitude of several hundred meters.
The roar produced by such a large-yield, one-time explosion is not comparable to the previous serial explosions at the top of the city.
Those who are close, even if they are not hit directly, will be shocked to death by the huge sound shock wave.
At that moment, the entire battlefield seemed to have stopped.
"No……"
All the Kingsley family soldiers were uttering the same cry.
In this chaotic situation, Akmesel and his commanding banner have become the backbone of these Kingsley family soldiers.
Now this pillar should turn into ashes in front of them, which is unacceptable.
