Warlord: King of All Clans

High-ranking knight Godwin personally led the elite troops and advanced towards the city wall in the traditional formation of the cold weapon army as usual.

The military system in the North can be roughly divided into four levels: Northern Earl, City Lord, Square Flag Knight, and Corner Flag Knight.

The Knights of the Corner Flags did not have the power to form a legion, and the local legions formed by the Knights of the Square Flags had almost no siege capabilities.

Their square flag earthen forts are good enough to support ordinary craftsmen, but they cannot train additional professional war craftsmen.

Only the higher-level city lords control a large number of war craftsmen and stockpile the core components of siege equipment.

As the Lord of Arbroath, Godwin was often at war with the Gustav family on the south bank of the Anzeno River. He was one of the few living generals in the North with practical experience in siege and capture of strongholds.

For a general, practical experience and military theory are equally important, and Godwin has both.

But this time, neither the rich practical experience nor the military theory helped him.

As the artillery fire roared, lead shotgun shells flew hundreds of meters, weaving into a dense web of death and falling on the soldiers attacking the city.

The wooden barriers that were strong enough to withstand the longbows and javelins of the North were destroyed in an instant and turned into a pile of rubble.

The elite soldiers in heavy armor hiding at the back could not escape the disaster. Some of their armors were pierced directly, while others were smashed with huge dents.

The same thing was that all those who were shot gushed blood and fell to the ground like harvested wheat.

The elite infantrymen wearing heavy armor and being invulnerable to swords and guns are still lambs to be slaughtered in front of the shotgun shells propelled by gunpowder.

Godwin, who was riding a horse and supervising the battle behind the infantry shield formation, suddenly raised his hand.

In front of him, invisible magic power quickly gathered to form a barrier.

The dense lead bullets seemed to hit a thick layer of colloid, rolling and deforming in it, and then falling one after another.

When physical extraordinary people reach the intermediate level, they can also begin to actively control magic power and develop unique combat skills.

When it reaches a high level, it is almost the same as the magic system. It can consume the magic power stored in the body and perform various strange methods.

Godwin stretched out his hand to block the shotgun shells that were attacking him, and then looked at the infantry formation in front of him with bloodshot eyes.

Thirty percent of the 500 heavily-armored elite infantrymen who had been trained for more than ten years were lost in an instant.

The regular soldiers following behind also suffered heavy losses. Many soldiers were stunned by the artillery fire and stopped moving forward.

His Arbroath Legion was definitely considered a strong army in the North, and faced with such horrific casualties, they still did not collapse immediately. There was only a moment of chaos, and then, amid the shouts of the corner flags, they raised their shields and bunkers again.

However, this time their steps became hasty, they had lost their previous composure, and they only wanted to get to the city wall as quickly as possible.

This was an unprecedentedly frustrating move by the Abros Legion. Even if the two armies were facing each other, the charge distance of the infantry would not exceed a hundred meters. Moreover, they were attacking a city. In addition to wearing heavy armor, they were also carrying heavy siege equipment.

We are still 500 meters away from the city wall. If we start charging now, by the time we get close to the city wall, even the elite infantry in heavy armor who are at their peak physical condition will be too tired to lift their shields.

Godwin was also unable to bear it, so he jumped up, flew over the army formation and rushed towards the city wall.

This is the time for high-level strong men to perform.

If the combat effectiveness is measured by heavy armor elite, a low-level extraordinary person is equivalent to the enemy of ten people, and is enough to fight against ten fully armed heavy armor elite infantry.

A mid-level extraordinary person can defeat a hundred people, and a high-level extraordinary person can defeat a thousand people.

With his level of strength, mortal armies could no longer hurt him, and even a thousand elite soldiers in heavy armor would not be able to stop him.

High-ranking knight Godwin can defeat an entire army alone!

His burly body landed on the ground a few times, and in a breath, he covered a distance of hundreds of meters.

The incoming shotgun shells were blocked by the magic power that protected his body, and they passed through the area covered by the artillery shotgun shells.

On the wall of Bavanach Castle, Leo stared at Godwin's figure the whole time. When he saw him start to act, he took Freya out of his arms and threw her far out of the city.

"Come on! Pikachu! No, Freya!"

Little Freya was thrown hundreds of meters by Leo. She grew in the air against the wind and turned into a giant bear eight meters long in the air.

Before she landed on the ground, she almost bumped into Godwin who was rushing towards her. She could only adjust her body in mid-air and slap him on the head with her claws.

When Godwin saw her being thrown out, he was about to grab her and refine her in an instant, but he didn't expect that she would become so huge in the blink of an eye, like a small mountain, completely blocking his vision.

The huge fleshy palm slapped Godwin hard who was caught off guard.

Godwin crossed his arms and blocked the attack in mid-air, but was knocked back more than ten meters and fell to the ground.

Freya's attack was successful. She stood up, waved her front paws repeatedly in a threatening manner, and roared loudly in an attempt to scare away the enemy.

"Wow! Wow!"

"This is... the Earth Bear?"

The giant groundhog, standing up like a human, was as tall as a three-story building, attracting the attention of all the soldiers present. The River Bay Army defending the city cheered loudly, while the morale of the Arbroath Legion dropped further sharply.

High-level extraordinary people are still human beings after all. Although they have great destructive power, the soldiers can still suppress their fear.

This kind of high-level magical beast is almost invincible below the Saint level. Every move it makes can cause terrifying range crushing. The mortal army is like a group of ants in front of it.

At least the siege soldiers that Freya faced began to crowd to both sides, trying to avoid this high-level battle.

This action caused great chaos, and the attacking troops could no longer maintain their formation and became a mess.

This was an extremely serious battlefield situation. The army fell into chaos and lost its grassroots command. The soldiers fought on their own. Some rushed forward, some retreated, and some looked for their lords in panic, trying to return to the ranks.

An army huddled together like this was simply a sitting duck for artillery fire. Marvin, without hesitation, ordered the continued coverage with shotgun shells to cause further casualties and destroy their morale.

But even so, there were still many troops who successfully crossed the shotgun coverage area.

Many elite veterans of the Arbroath Legion and the Knights of the Corner Flag saw the muzzles of the guns on the walls of Fort Bavanach.

Once flames spew out of the black muzzle of the gun, a rain of death will come to our side.

The veterans with rich experience on the battlefield immediately guessed that this terrible weapon was similar to a bed crossbow or a stone crossbow, and had blind spots for shooting.

Sure enough, when they rushed to within 200 yards of the city wall in one breath, the rain of death could only pass over their heads and fall on their comrades who were still trampling on each other behind them.

The walls of Bavanach are very low, and the blind spot for the centurions stationed on them is relatively small, but it still exists.

However, as they entered the blind spot of artillery fire, they also entered the range of muskets.

Basarov had been rubbing his hands in anticipation of his attack. As soon as the enemy entered the range, he shouted an order, "Hit them hard, little bastards!"

Hundreds of flintlock rifles were aimed and ready to fire, just waiting for the trigger to be pulled.

The veterans of the Abros Legion, who had just been congratulating themselves on having made the right choice, fell to the ground and died in rows, with blood splattered all over their bodies amid the sound of gunfire.
