total conquest

Chapter 368 The plan is shattered
Petrev's second signal flare was an attack instruction for the Furious Knights. These eight hundred Bear Knights were hidden in the second half of the city from the beginning. When the signal flare appeared in the air again, the Bear Knights As if a start switch was pressed, they rushed towards the north gate from both sides of the city.

Swamp Thing warriors have occupied all the tops of the northern city wall, so no matter how many people go up, it will be useless. Except for the Furious Knights, Slughof Fortress has no heavy armored soldiers at all. Facing Swamp Thing's heavy armor, it takes four or five to replace them. One is missing. This is because of the body structure of the swamp monster. It cannot be [-]% armored. Its head, neck, tail, etc. are all exposed, which gives the soldiers a place to start. Otherwise, it will be like a [-]% armored body. Except for armor-piercing weapons, ordinary weapons cannot cause any effective damage to the enemy in a short period of time.

"Listen to me!! Hold on to the evacuation of the residents before we can retreat to the fortress castle!! Before that, those who retreat will be killed!" Petlev shouted at the top of his lungs, but the gunshots, roars, The roars and the sounds of pain were all intertwined, and Petlev's voice couldn't even be heard clearly by himself.The enemy's offensive is too strong, and the lack of means to deal with large enemies makes Petlev feel desperate. The Slughov Fortress has artillery, but the shells need to be replaced frequently, because only a very small number of areas on the entire continent belong to this kind of cold area The cold type, no one upgrades their weapons and ammunition for this kind of weather, even Kislev regards this as one of the powerful means to contain the north, and after so many days of isolation by Holden, he can now Only the artillery of the castle fortress fired.

"Dududu!" Just when Petrolev was leading the soldiers to fight hard with the swamp monster.The horns of the Furious Knights came from both sides in turn.

A moment later, the metal collided and fell to the ground, and the sound of tearing was the first to spread throughout the entire North City.The bear claws of the giant bear are like blunt weapons such as hammers. Few swamp monsters can hold them with one paw. In addition, the knights on their backs are constantly rotating long-handled battle axes or armor-piercing spears. Halberd, once the swamp monster that escaped the collision is brought down by the weapon, it will face a crush weighing hundreds of kilograms. The originally ferocious swamp monster is as if it has been crushed by a bulldozer.

According to the plan of the Furious Knights, the knights rushing from the left stick closely to the edge of the defense line, and the knights rushing from the right stick close to the knights rushing from the left, leaving a large area between the entire city wall and the defense line. After a wave of crushing, the swamp monster that jumped into the line of defense was eliminated by several times its own soldiers in the next second.

"Retreat to the castle!!" The pressure on the defense line suddenly decreased and Petlev knew that this was the only chance to retreat to the fortress before the city gate was breached.So he immediately gave the soldiers a retreat order.

But when the soldiers turned their heads and began to retreat, a large number of residents suddenly poured out from the street corner ahead, and among them, several blood-soaked giant bear knights quickly jumped towards the line of defense.

"Jira! What are you doing? Why are you still here?! Residents..." Petlev saw a large number of residents in the distance asking in puzzlement, but before he could finish speaking, Jila interrupted with tears.

"Sir!! Our secret passage exit was discovered by the enemy. They waited until we were all out before launching the attack... Brothers, in order to cover us..." Two hundred of the one thousand violent knights were separated, led by Gila to escort the residents in advance. To escape, the secret tunnel exit is behind the hillside south of Slughof Fortress, thousands of meters away from the fortress. Large mine carts designed by the dwarves themselves are responsible for transportation underground. One cart can transport hundreds of people, and several mine carts are connected together. If turned on at the same time, thousands of people can be sent out at once, or tens of thousands can be sent in without anyone noticing.But now this secret passage was predicted in advance by the enemy and an ambush was carried out. Petlev's first reaction was "How is this possible!"

"Boom!!!" Just when Petrov couldn't believe it, the city gate was finally overwhelmed and opened inward in an extremely twisted manner.

With a high-pitched elephant cry, countless ordinary looters began to pour into the city, and all kinds of debris at the gate of the city became the only obstacle hindering their progress.At this time, the two violent knights had also completed the intersection, staggering and other actions, and the city gate and the defense line were once again connected.

"The city defense army stay!" Before Petlev gave the order, Kirov had already turned around and ran towards the defense line.According to the original plan, when the enemy is attracted by the soldiers in the city, they will evacuate the residents first, and then the soldiers on the defense line will retreat to the castle with the help of the Berserker Knights. This will not only ensure the safety of the residents, but also reduce the shortage of food. Now everything is in vain, and what is even more frightening is that the city gate is now wide open.

"Gira! Secret way?"

"It has been blown up by explosives." Gila and the two giant bear knights were the last to return to the passage. Before getting on the last mine cart, he blew up the entrance with his own hands. This not only cut off the enemy's invasion, but also The knights who were blocking the enemy outside were cut off. If nothing unexpected happened, none of the knights behind would survive.

"Take them back to the castle! The berserkers stay!! The rest evacuate according to the plan!" The soldiers waiting for orders looked at each other and continued to act. There was a little panic in their eyes, but it was more of a farewell to the remaining soldiers .

"My lord! Go back and take charge of the overall situation first! We will block here." Gila said and led the giant bear knight to move forward, but Petlev stopped him.

"Jira, protect the residents! No more accidents are allowed this time!" He raised his sword and turned around, but the next second his eyes went dark, and he was hugged by Jila the moment he fell on the ground.

"Send your lord into the castle and wake him up. Long-range troops defend the sky!!!" There are houses all around the defense line, and it is difficult for a manticore who lacks long-range attack methods to take away a man in a swoop on the city wall. A large group of people, after a few failed attacks, kept circling in the sky.Now suddenly seeing a large crowd pouring out of the street, they rushed up excitedly.

Gila originally went to support Kirov after knocking out Petrov, but now the strange movement in the sky made him unable to do anything.

"Kirov hold on! I'll come later!!" Gila rode on the giant bear and ran towards the crowd, while firing a signal flare diagonally forward.

Seeing this, the soldiers in the castle immediately began to convey orders. The iron windows on the inner city wall were thrown open, and small cannons were pushed out. Kislev was not as advanced as the empire's technology, and all the weapons used by the empire were used. The weapons that were eliminated could not even reach the northern city gate.
