A large number of people came out of the forest, and among them there were many ladders, siege ladders, battering rams, and rare catapults.
Neither the quality of the army nor the level of equipment this time can be compared to the bandit army led by Croni last time. Its elite level can beat the bandit army several times last time.
The troops of the Thirteenth Army were neatly arranged in front of Ningtian Fort, and all war machines were ready.
Medios in red armor swaggered forward and shouted to the city wall: "People above, listen, you have half an hour to surrender, otherwise, our Thirteenth Legion will crush you, leaving no chickens or dogs behind."
.”
The city wall of Ningtian Fort has been repaired and is now very high, about twelve meters. Although it cannot stop the Thirteenth Legion below from climbing, but with the obstruction of spears and cannons, if Qin Liangyu believes that they still come up, there will be something wrong.
.
"If you have the guts, come here. If you don't, get out of here." Qin Liangyu stood on the city wall and shouted.
The despised Medios gritted his teeth. The person who answered him was not Qin Feng himself, but a woman. This was a humiliation for him.
"Attack, catapult, let them have a taste of our power."
Behind the Thirteenth Army, more than twenty large trebuchets began to stir. The soldiers moved large stones onto the colander. Just as the stones were about to rise into the air, they flew first from the distant sky.
A blazing white light bullet.
On the city wall of Ningtian Fort, more than thirty artillery pieces were pushed out, bursts of explosions sounded one after another, and countless cannonballs were fired.
In the Thirteenth Army, shells fell, the earth shook, and more than twenty catapults were destroyed before even a single shell was fired.
Not only that, other siege towers and siege rams were also taken away in this wave.
But the falling cannonballs continued to fall endlessly, exploding in the tight army formation.
Medios couldn't help but open his mouth and said angrily: "Attack, attack, they are the spies of the Crane Country and our enemies."
The Thirteenth Army Corps, which was under bombardment, rushed forward under the command. They set up a siege ladder and prepared to climb up, but saw countless soldiers on the city wall pointing a dark hollow pipe at them.
After many days of fighting with the Crane Kingdom, many people have learned that the weapons in their hands are called iron cannons, which can shoot deadly projectiles.
But what they didn't know was that the weapons aimed at them were called muskets and were more powerful.
Bang bang...
Projectiles flew down like a torrential rain, and all the soldiers on the engineering ladder were shot and fell. Then black bombs were thrown down one after another, and there was another explosion after landing on the dense crowd under the city wall.
"Retreat...retreat..."
Charge after charge resulted in death again and again, which made Medios heartbroken and had to grit his teeth and choose to retreat.
Ningtian Fort happened to open the city gate at this time, and Qin Liangyu rushed out with 3,000 musketeers, chasing the retreating Thirteenth Army in rapid pursuit.
The retreating Thirteenth Army had lost its position, and was then disrupted by the pursuing musketeers, causing an irreversible defeat.
"Damn it." Medios gritted his teeth. All the troops were defeated in the blink of an eye, too fast for him to react. They were even worse than the bandit troops led by Croni.
Medios ran into the forest and said anxiously to Berger who had not left yet: "Hurry up and get on your horse. Qin Feng has completely surrendered to the Country of Cranes. They have big barrels and iron cannons."
Seeing that the people behind him were getting closer and closer, he didn't have time to say anything and ran away with the soldiers around him.
Berger was quite surprised by the outcome of the war and had no choice but to mount his horse and leave.
The palace hall of Songdan City was overcrowded compared to before, and now there were only a few nobles standing here.
Diablo stood up from the throne, with a very angry face on his face, and shouted at Medios, who was kneeling at the foot of the steps: "Half of the 10,000 people were killed, half were captured, and in the end you were the only one who escaped?"
Medios looked ashamed, always lowering his head and not daring to look at him.
"Humph." Diablo could only give up questioning him. The matter had already happened, and it was meaningless to say more.
"Salamanda." Diablo looked at the prime minister with a serious face.
"I know that you have always wanted to evade my rights, but now the Bahuo Kingdom is facing an unprecedented crisis. The Crane Kingdom's army is not only powerful but also numerous, and we have lost too much territory.
Nowadays, there is Qin Feng, a pickpocket. It is estimated that the Kingdom of Crane has promised him a lot of benefits, even a title. His army has a large number of iron cannons and big guns. The Thirteenth Legion is in their attack.
It’s completely over.”
Prime Minister Salamanda's face was livid, and the bags under his eyes were long and dark, obviously due to staying up late.
The troops of the Crane Kingdom attacked from the south of the Bajo Kingdom, so that the lord territories in the south were occupied one after another, and the legions suffered heavy casualties.
"Your Majesty, our only way now is to escape to the north and sign a peace treaty with the Kingdom of Vali. Only then can we gain a chance of survival." Salamanda said firmly.
Now he has also lost the phalanx and has forgotten that the battle between the Bajo Kingdom and the Vali Kingdom was caused by him.
Diablo stared at him, "Yes, you are right, we need to sign a peace treaty with the Kingdom of Vali, but if people ask us why we launched a war? How should we answer? Will it trigger a war?
hand it over to them?”
Salamanda suddenly realized something, her eyes widened, and she turned and left without thinking. However, before running a few steps, a group of heavily armored knights stopped at the entrance of the palace.
Salamanda's face suddenly lost color.
In Ningtian Fort, the Ming Dynasty spy lieutenant reported all the recent situation in the Bahuo Kingdom to Qin Feng, who was practicing.
"Captain, Diablo has gone to the north, and Prime Minister Salamanda has been sent to the Vali Kingdom to ask for peace and peace from the Vali Kingdom.
However, the Vali Kingdom killed Prime Minister Salamanda, but still refused Diablo's request and killed the envoys he sent.
The six armies in the south have suffered heavy losses and are retreating to the north. We have also taken some in. All the southern territories have been occupied by the Crane Country. They have implemented a high-pressure policy, and tragedies happen all the time.
At present, the pioneer troops of the Crane Kingdom have arrived at Songdan City. The current Songdan City defenders only have 2,000 people. Everyone in the city is already panicked, and there are countless people fleeing.
There are also many people who think that we are spies from the Crane Country, and many people come to our Ningtian Fort to seek help. At this time, the number of residents in our Ningtian Fort has reached 100,000."
After the spy reported the general situation, he stepped aside. At this time, Qin Liangyu strode into the castle hall, clasped his fists and reported: "Captain, the forward troops of the Crane Kingdom have launched an attack on Songdan City. What should we do now?"
