Warlord: King of All Clans

Chapter 460 Capture the Fortress

The city gate inside the city gate arch, although much simpler than the outer city gate, looks also very thick.

During the siege, casualties occurred every second. Once the werewolves who attacked the city wall were killed or injured, the guards on the city wall would be free, and the ogres who were blocked outside the city would have no choice but to take the beating.

No matter it is the artillery regiment or the musket regiment, the ogres do not have much qualified armor and are easily shot to death. Moreover, the ogres' fighting will is low and their morale will collapse if they are hit by a intensive rain of arrows.

At this moment, Tali had already led his team over. Seeing a bunch of big guys standing there in a daze, he slapped the head of the jackal next to him and said, "You! For the glory of the river bend!"

After saying that, he took out a barrel of explosives and stuffed it into his arms.

The Jackal commando's eyes instantly turned red and he went berserk. He rushed towards the city gate holding a barrel of explosives, "For the River Bay! For the Queen! Woof woof woof!"

With a loud roar, wood chips flew more than ten meters away and hit Strong and the ogre, and only a small hole was broken in the city gate.

This time, without waiting for Tully to call for help, another wolf commando grabbed a gunpowder barrel and shouted, "Riverbend is invincible!" and rushed towards the city gate.

There was another sound of blood, limbs and wood chips flying everywhere, and the inner city gate was shattered into pieces, turning into a pile of wreckage.

Strong was stunned, and even the ogres were frightened and recovered from their red-hot state.

Strong looked at the bronze cannon on his mammoth mount and said regretfully, "Oh! This little bit of time is not a big deal."

In fact, he was somewhat mentally prepared. The bronze cannon on the mammoth was the "Thousand Captain" cannon that he had obtained from Leo by begging him for mercy, not the "Centurion" equipped by the Gnoll Artillery Regiment.

Such a cannon can be loaded with eight-pound solid lead bullets or six-pound iron bullets. With larger charge, it can smash half-meter thick stone at close range.

Currently, the only one who can use it for field battles is Strong, who has a mammoth mount.

Let alone two city gates, Strong didn't even take three or five gates seriously.

However, it will take some time to dismantle the cannons and break into the city.

Two gnoll commandos sacrificed themselves, and the kobold army easily broke through the city gate and poured in.

The fortress defenders had already arranged two elite teams of 100 men behind the city gate, all of which were regular infantry.

The people of the West were not as tall and strong as those of the North, but they were not short either. The only thing they lacked was armor. The entire garrison of Buck Fortress consisted of only one thousand soldiers in iron armor, one thousand in leather armor, and one thousand unarmored militia.

The regular infantrymen wearing various colors of mail and scale armor are already the elite of Buck Fortress, and many of them are elite cavalrymen who have dismounted.

Such troops blocking the city gate are enough to stop the incoming enemies for a long time.

But when the smoke cleared and the city gates were broken open, several huge golden balls rolled in and crashed directly into the two teams of hundreds of people, breaking up the solid military formation.

Swords, spears, and lances fell on them and were bounced off one after another. They were completely unable to break through the one-centimeter-thick bronze plate.

After the rolling balls were stopped, they stretched out their big hands, grabbed the slender humans, and stuffed them into their mouths.

"Human! I haven't eaten in a long time! Try it!"

"Pah, it's not tasty!"

"Olgai, Sven, food, cook it!"

Strong, who had dismounted, urged his mammoth war elephant out of the doorway.

The gate of Buck Fortress is more than four meters high, just level with the back of the mammoth war elephant. The huge mammoth has to bend its knees slightly to pass through it.

The wooden frame on its back rubbed against the stone on top of the city gate, breaking and scattering one after another. Two "Thousand Captains", a basket of artillery shells, and more than a dozen dog-headed artillerymen fell one after another.

The fallen ogre gunner was unable to lift the 1,500-pound bronze cannon and could only sit on the ground helplessly and cry.

Around them were swarms of unicorn boars, kobold artillery squads, kobold musketeers, and gnoll commandos.

Strong wanted to drive his mammoth war elephant into the city. He couldn't lead the way, so he could only shout orders at the city gate, "Horse Riders, fight on the main streets, don't go into the alleys!"

"Gnoll Commandos, hurry up to the city wall and support our werewolf brothers!"

"Kobold musketeers, charge! Charge without thinking! Charge at will!"

"Where's my gunner? Where's my gunner? Set up my gun! Set up my gun!"

The Minotaur's voice is extremely powerful and can be heard clearly on the battlefield filled with shouts and screams.

Under his loud roar, the troops entering the city barely restored order, while the humans defending the city became a mob.

The extraordinary knight Valhan retreated into the city. Without taking a rest, he hurried up the city and chased and killed three werewolves in a row. When he looked back, he found that the city gate had been broken.

A female troll wearing bright feathers and colorful animal skins stood next to a burly tauren, raised her hands horizontally, condensed lightning, and then sent it forward.

A blinding flash of lightning struck over ten meters away and hit the defending soldiers who were blocking the road. At least five armored infantrymen fell to the ground twitching all over, dying in agony with green smoke coming out of their burnt flesh.

With the killing of several garrison captains, the fortress defenders, who had the advantage in numbers, showed signs of defeat.

Valkhan took a deep look at the werewolf warriors in front of him who were glaring at him, and then looked at the armored ogres rolling around under the city. When Strong's mammoth successfully entered the city and started fighting, he knew that defeat was inevitable.

There are ways to deal with werewolf warriors and armored ogres, but this mammoth is invincible in the mortal army, and even Val'khan doesn't know how to deal with it.

The extraordinary knight's physical strength is also limited. He can kill these werewolf warriors and fight a few ogres, but the price is that he will also exhaust his physical strength and fall in the chaos.

Valhan, who had just spent the entire family's savings and paid a huge price to get a mid-level awakening potion two years ago and successfully advanced to the mid-level extraordinary, was unwilling to die on the battlefield, so he took his personal soldiers and went down the stairs of the city wall and went straight to the stable.

A few minutes later, nearly five hundred cavalrymen passed through the settlement behind the fortress and disappeared into the western border with billowing smoke and dust.

As the main force of the defenders fled, the remaining defenders lost their fighting spirit and Strong's pressure was suddenly reduced.

He shouted excitedly: "Dogs! Charge! Kill them all! Burn them all! Loot them all!"

A black-haired dog-headed gunner nearby picked up a broken spear handle, flew up, kicked Strong on the hip, and hit Strong's forehead with a powerful blow in mid-air.

Seeing Strong looking back at him angrily, the black-haired dog-headed man was so scared that he dropped his stick. He tucked his tail between his legs and tried to explain, "Woof woof woof! The mistress said no burning, killing, or looting!"

Strong wanted to stomp it to death, but under the gaze of a group of kobolds, he held back his anger and changed his lines: "My men, charge! Take down this city! You won't be killed if you surrender!"

With the repeated shouts of “surrender and no killing,” the shouts of battle gradually died down in Buck Fortress.

But facing the foreign siege, not many people believed that they would leave any survivors. After the battle on the city wall ended, there were still many residents and remaining soldiers in the city who were resisting.

The battle was not over until dusk fell.

This was the third day since Fraser asked Six to hand over a castle, and the second day since Olivia discovered that Six was missing.

Olivia, who was busy with her work, didn't take it too seriously. Although Six was the first to sit at the table at the big house dinner every day, this was the first time he had missed it.

The little dog-headed man that I raised by myself is the most naughty one and seems to get into trouble frequently, but how much trouble can he get into?

I guess he sneaked through the portal and went to the palace to fish for goldfish.
