Chapter 420 Bloody Battle 10,000 Words This is a beautiful sneak attack After the rebels had been silent for a long time, under the deliberate management of Hughes and El Salvador, the armies were recuperated and recharged, loose on the outside and tight on the inside.
For tonight's sneak attack, Hughes and Salvatore gambled almost everything on their sidelines, including using the last of the connections and influences that had been lurking in the city of Osgiria.
Naturally, it also includes the families of Gerry and Marsha, as early as when the military regions openly rebelled, the empire was crumbling, and after the rebels besieged the city, the Red Round Table had quietly rebelled against many powerful people in the city of Osgillia through the hidden dark line, which naturally included the families of Gerry and Marsha.
At that time, the situation seemed that the imperial family was crumbling, the empire had been weak for many years, and there was really no capital to confront the rebels.
In this case, it is natural that many people have begun to seek a way out for themselves.
No one knows how many of the city's imperial magnates have secretly fallen to the rebels or kept in touch with the rebels under the covert operations of Hughes and El Salvador.
What is certain is that in the panic of the people at that time, this kind of thing was definitely not rare But as the situation developed, and after the recent entry of the Rantis Kingdom into the war, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the people in the city who had been the grass on the wall naturally became more and more panicked.
At this time, the last gamble that Salvador and Hughes conspired to brew was to secretly contact the powerful families in the city who had been connected with him, and conspire to seize the city It's simple, but it's also very effective.
Hughes and Salvador made lucrative terms, and at the same time threatened each other: if they were defeated, then they would publish the previous covert correspondence and contacts between the two sides.
Presumably, the young and vigorous Emperor Garcia, once he learned after the war that there were snakes and rats among these courtiers under his command, he would definitely not let go of these wall grass.
Under such a threat, some people in the city had to give in.
It's rare for Hughes and Salvador to work together so sincerely, and for this attack, the two of them have gambled almost all of their families Gerry was an ambush in the city, and the target was to select Nigul's battalion defense area, which was never the main attack point of the rebels, so the defenders never seemed to pay much attention to it.
And there is Gerry as an internal response.
That night, Hughes even disregarded his own safety and personally led troops to attack the city.
He brought all the most elite guards under his command out of any army of this era, and often the personal guards of the main general were the most carefully selected elite men.
A battalion of guards under Hughes had 500 men, and these 500 men were selected from the tens of thousands of soldiers of the entire Armenian army, and they were all excellent candidates of the first class in terms of skill and combat effectiveness.
These 500 personal guard battalions, Hughes Ping said that they did not hesitate to spend a lot of money, the best equipment, the most sophisticated weapons, the most generous military salaries, the best treatment, and the most severe and even harsh training to feed such a 500 people of a personal guard battalion, the cost is even more than a flag regiment by 30 percent.
These five hundred guard battalions, even in the battle of the Rorientian cavalry that night before, Hughes only brought two squads with him, of course, the Rhodria cavalry attacked the city beyond Hughes's expectations, if he could have predicted the consequences in advance, how could he also take his most elite guard battalion with him.
And that night, Hughes's army was forcibly routed by the Rhodrian cavalry, and in the chaos of the army, Hughes even had his surname difficult to protect, and it was by relying on the two elite guards around him to protect and kill him to save his life.
This guard camp is Hughes's heart, and tonight's attack on the city can be said to be Hughes and Salvador's last fight to take away Oscuria, Hughes actually threw them all out, and they were thrown in the most critical and dangerous place Salvador did not hide any more secrets, and among his army, three hundred dead soldiers were also selected, plus the elites contributed by other armies, a total of more than 1,000 elite dead soldiers, taking advantage of the darkness, taking advantage of the night, quietly lurked to the river outside the city of Osgilia and lurked, until after midnight, braved the cold winter and the icy water, this elite swam across the river, and then joined forces with the city defense of Greri to take the next section of the city defense Things went almost more smoothly than Hughes and El Salvador had predicted.
Grie's pawn performed even better than Hughes expected Almost all of the defenders on night in this section of the city were overturned in a coma, and when Hughes personally led the elite guards to the city with iron hooks and ropes, he met no resistance and easily took this part of the city defense.
This quiet slaughter did not alarm any of the defenders, and with the cooperation of Gerry, the other defense districts of the city did not even notice that this section of the defense area had changed hands In the night, Hughes only felt as if there was a fire hidden in his heart, winning or losing was a fight tonight, even though he had arranged everything and done his best, and it seemed that the beginning of this sneak attack was going so smoothly, but in the face of such a situation, Hughes still couldn't suppress his nervousness.
Most of the 1,000 elites who followed him to attack the city tonight have already gone to the city, and the clothes and costumes of the defenders of this battalion who have been slaughtered have all been stripped off, and the elite rebels who attacked the city have quietly changed their outfits in the night.
Hughes nervously glanced at the subordinates around him, took a deep breath, his well-maintained white face, at the moment it looked a little distorted and hideous, his eyes were ruthless, and he shouted in a low voice: "Everyone, success or failure is to break through Osgilia in one fell swoop tonight, and each will reward you with a thousand gold coins, I Hughes will ensure that you are prosperous and rich in this life, and enjoy the endless destruction of the city, after the three said that the Empire was founded for a thousand years, and this city has accumulated the wealth of the empire for thousands of years, and the wealth of many wealthy nobles in this city is piled up like a mountain of gold and silver who want to be rich, Just follow me and take it with the knife in your hand."
The people who followed him to attack the city were all elite people, most of whom were his henchmen, and naturally understood the importance of tonight's battle, if you win, you can turn everything around, and if you lose, you will be defeated After taking this section of the city defense, the elite of the rebel army was immediately arranged, and people dressed as imperial defenders were scattered on both sides, nervously waiting for time to pass bit by bit, Hughes had never felt that time passed so slowly in his life Finally, in the middle of the night, countless torches suddenly lit up in the rebel camp outside the city, and at night, a group of rebel soldiers who had been fully nourished drove out of the barracks with torches, and stood on the city wall at night, looking at it as if a fire dragon was spreading out in the wilderness outside the city The drums of war suddenly sounded like an earth-shattering sound, shattering the silence of the night, and after the high-pitched horn sounded, the rebels who drove out of the barracks, without even waiting for the queue to line up, frantically pounced on the city defense of Osgilia in front A night battle began Outside the city, it was Salvador himself who presided over the siege Tens of thousands of rebels gathered at night, and in the midst of the formation, under the rapid and stern shouts of the officers, the rebel soldiers nervously lined up in a line, and then began to attack the city A group of rebels shouted frantically, holding their shields high and pounced in the direction of the city wall of Osgiria, and this time the main direction of attack was the most heavily defended and strongest place in the city of Osgiria: the Arc de Triomphe At night, the rebels outside the city swooped down like ant colonies wriggling in the wilderness.
Although the defenders of the city defense were already somewhat lax, they still reacted under the command of the defending generals.
In the barracks under the city, the resting soldiers were woken up from their sleep, and the bows and crossbows above the city defense immediately began to shoot wildly, and the dense rain of arrows fell overwhelmingly, and the crowd running at the front of the rebels' charging queue was immediately swept off like half of the wheat under this rain of arrows The rebels in the back were still struggling to charge, and soon the forward had rushed to the river, the rebels held their shields high and squirmed towards the bridge, and in the rear of the rebel brigade behind, one by one siege catapults were also pushed out, and with the interval between several volleys of the city defenders, the rebel catapults began to roar.
Stone cannons flew back and forth in the sky, and some stone cannons smashed on the city walls, instantly smashing the defenders into meat sauce, and the broken stone chips were splashed.
The archers fought back, and behind the walls, the defenders' catapults began to roar A loud rallying horn sounded in the city, and in the sleeping barracks, a large number of resting defenders rushed out of the barracks, and under the drive of the officers, they hurriedly put on armor and held weapons and rushed to the city defense.
Stone cannons wrapped in fire oil were fired into the walls and the city, and as the fire crossbows were lit, clumps of flames began to rise behind the walls and the city.
After nearly half a year of fierce fighting, the defenders quickly reacted, and skillfully divided several teams of men to run back and forth to extinguish the fire, and more defenders poured into the city defense of the Arc de Triomphe, and the archers of the brigade gathered on the city and returned fire with a more dense rain of arrows.
In this offensive, El Salvador concentrated more than two corps, combined with all the elite troops of the four military regions, almost regardless of losses, entered this battle of the city.
Salvatore himself stood at the forefront of the army with his escort, and a row of overseers stood at the head of the line with long knives In the countless offensive and defensive battles in the past six months, the rebels have attacked the Arc de Triomphe no less than dozens of times, but as the top priority of the defense of Osgilia, as the largest gateway to Osgilia, the Arc de Triomphe concentrated the most elite forces of the imperial defenders.
Coupled with a complete set of city defenses, the rebels were successfully repelled every time.
But tonight, the insaneness of the rebels' offensive surprised the defenders' generals Outside the city, Salvatore had almost moved his family out, and his most elite infantry regiment was killed and wounded in only a quarter of an hour, braving a dense rain of arrows.
But the rebels behind still didn't want to die, and rushed forward like madness.
The bridge under the city was almost crowded with rebel siege soldiers, crowded on top of the narrow bridge, and the defending archers on the city wall hardly had to aim, as long as they fired arrows in the direction of the bridge, almost every arrow would not miss The rebels frantically attacked the city gate again and again, and more and more corpses were pushed directly into the river on the spot, but in a few moments, the river on both sides of the bridge was filled with dense rebel corpses After paying a heavy price, the siege trucks were finally pushed onto the bridge and reached under the city gates The siege wagons, with their iron wings stretched out to resist the arrows and stones falling from the city walls, the rebel soldiers hiding below pushed the siege wagons with all their might, smashing the huge gates of the Arc de Triomphe with hanging stakes.
The rumbling sound of the crash came from the night, as if every blow was striking on people's hearts, and even the sound of the tidal wave of fighting could not cover the sound.
The boiling oil pan was quickly thrown out of the city wall, and the boiling oil poured down, and immediately passed through the iron wings of the siege vehicle, and the rebel soldiers under the hiding place screamed wildly, and for a while, the air was filled with the smell of barbecue, and as the torch was dropped, the first siege vehicle drenched with fire oil suddenly turned into a raging fire and burned.
The rebel offensive was stalled The rebels in front seemed to be about to retreat, but in the rear formation, the war drums sounded, and more rebel columns rushed out, driven by the warlords, desperately crowded forward.
"Those who are not allowed to retreat, who are not allowed to take a step back, will be killed" The officer roared hard in the darkness, and after cutting off the heads of several retreating soldiers, the retreat was suddenly stopped.
The rebels crowded on the bridge could only raise their shields to fend off the arrows on the city defenses, and at the same time return fire with their bows and arrows in the gaps in the shields.
In the stalemate, almost every second, someone screamed that the arrow fell into the river, and on the city wall, the screams of the defenders who fell from the arrow also rose one after another.
The elite warriors of the rebels rushed up and pushed the already burning siege vehicle under the city wall back, and several brave men who were not afraid of death almost threw themselves directly into the fire, and forcibly pushed the burning siege vehicle aside with their flesh and blood.
The rebel soldiers in the back rushed up again, dozens of people holding huge crashing logs, and the soldiers on both sides continued to attack the city gate under the cover of their shields.

This battle lasted only half an hour, and the rebels had lost at least a thousand such heavy casualties, and if it had been before, these rebels would have retreated.
But tonight, Salvador himself stood in front of the formation, and the overseers around him were all holding steel knives in front of the battle and screams, but the expression on Salvador's face was resolute, and he didn't even loosen his brows, just gritted his teeth and drove the battalion one by one to the huge meat grinder in front of him One by one, the battalions were filled, and the competition under the walls of the bridge was extremely fierce, and it took almost a moment to go up to a battalion and it was wiped out.
However, an hour later, the rebels had at least two flag regiments.
The rebels have been besieging the city for nearly half a year, and except for those who have just besieged the city, it has not been able to show such a strong and resolute fighting spirit for a long time.
Salvatore stood there, his face pale, just watching the battalions around him rush forward one by one, his teeth clenched, and his heart screamed: "Not enough, not enough, not enough" After a whole hour of fierce fighting, the bridge has become a hell of flesh and blood, the river on both sides has also been stained red with blood, the flames under the city gate are burning, and the rebels have left hundreds of corpses and cannot attack them.
The rain of arrows from the city wall almost filled the battlefield with a field of wheat and feathers "Lord Doge" A burly lieutenant general beside Salvador looked anxious, grabbed Salvador's clothes by his side, and said in an anxious whisper: "My lord, this can't be done, let the people in front of you retreat first, we have already filled in a flag regiment, these are the old foundations of our military region, and they are all your elites."
Salvador just frowned, didn't look at the person next to him, and said coldly: "Sixth Flag Regiment, transfer up" The adjutant general next to him was stunned for a moment, looked at Salvador, and suddenly shouted, "My lord is fighting for our people, if our army is all fought here, in the future" "Shut up" Salvador suddenly turned his head and shouted categorically at this person: "In the future, if we can't capture Osgilia, where will we have more people who will die in the future, as long as this battle is fought, we can always gather more troops to fight in the future, where is there an undead bastard, is it too much to follow me, and you have lost your courage?"
Under the reprimand of El Salvador, this general's cheeks were red, his eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, I'm not afraid of death, but you see that the people in other military regions have already retreated, and our people are at the front, if your soldiers are all exhausted, how to gain a foothold in the alliance?"
"Shut up" Salvador suddenly pulled out his long sword and slashed it fiercely, shouting: "It's that everyone has this kind of thought, and our hundreds of thousands of troops will spend half a year empty, and they haven't been able to conquer this damn city, tonight is where the victory and defeat are, don't you understand, if we can't win tonight, all of us will be doomed, and we won't win tonight in the future, and we won't have the future to give me the Governor team to rush forward, and if there is a retreat, no matter what position in the army, cut it immediately, and you don't need to report me" The general's face sank, and he suddenly took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Your Excellency Governor, I have been serving you for ten years, and I will hand over this life to you today, I can't serve by your side in the future, I hope your Excellency takes care."
Salvador's face changed, and he glanced at the general, this person was the most trusted and powerful general around him, and when he said such a thing at this moment, Salvador's heart sank, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, if you die, I will feed you for your wife and children."
The general let out a loud shout, took a heavy iron spear from the hand of the guard beside him, and rushed forward with his horse.
He led hundreds of people to rush up, head-on under the dense rain of arrows, when he rushed to the river, the people around him were already less than half, this military general turned over and dismounted, directly crashed into the bridge, under the struggle of his subordinates to open the way, rushed across the bridge to the city gate in one breath.
"Dodge" A loud shout was like a thunderbolt This general, dressed in iron armor and with a majestic figure, held the heavy iron spear in both hands, rushed out of the crowd directly, and hit the majestic and tall Arc de Triomphe Gate on the head In the midst of that roar, a red light like flames erupted all over his body and on the iron spear in his hand, and in his hand, it was like holding a huge torch, and it slammed into the city gate of the triumphal arch rumble This loud bang suddenly shook the people around him, and the shaking movement seemed to shake the city gate dozens of meters high The iron spear struck the city gate, and suddenly the front half of the iron spear made of fine iron had been completely shattered, and the light of the fire and the fighting spirit were fused together, and they could no longer distinguish each other This military general was so strong in fighting spirit, and with all his strength, he slammed into the city gate, and suddenly slammed the triumphal arch that seemed to stand forever and shook violently The Arc de Triomphe Gate is one of the most majestic buildings in the Empire, with iron gates set up in tens of meters high, and iron gates nearly one meter thick, almost entirely made of pouring iron juice No matter how hard the rebels tried and how many lives they put in, they could not shake the iron gates of the Arc de Triomphe At this moment, with the hard work of this fierce general, the iron gate was actually loosened The defenders above the city defense also felt the fierce bombardment under their feet, as if they could clearly feel the vibration from the soles of their feet when they stood on the city gate.
This earth-shattering blow immediately made the defenders of the city nervous, and the generals in command shouted: "Archer, archer, aim at the bridge, kill that man, kill him, kill him, kill him."
In the chaos, I don't know how many strong crossbows were hastily transferred, and they aimed at the tall figure under the city at the end of the bridge.
The sound of breaking the sky fell, and the military general standing under the city gate was suddenly hit by several arrows, although he was wearing iron armor, there were still several armor-piercing iron arrows piercing his armor This guy was also really brave and shouted: "Shieldman" Rebel soldiers rushed behind him, holding up their shields to shield him.
The general took a deep breath, half of his body was already stained with blood, but he roared again, threw half of the iron spear in his hand, and bent down to pick up a huge stake on the ground that had been dropped by the previously dead and wounded soldiers The top of the stake that hit the door was wrapped in iron sheets, which was as thick as the waist of the general, but the generals inserted the fingers of both hands into the stake and hugged it high.
"Broken" In the midst of this roar, the red light around the general's body was once again great, and he saw that his originally tall body seemed so small against the backdrop of the crashing wood, but he just lifted the huge collision wood and blasted it towards the city gate There was a loud bang, and the fighting spirit on this general's body was almost so dazzling that people couldn't force it The huge crashing wood slammed on the towering iron gate of the city gate, and at the moment of impact, the general suddenly opened his mouth, and a ball of blood spurted out of his mouth and nose, but at the same time, the crashing wood slammed on the city gate, and the heavy iron gate was completely dented by the bombardment The wood in the general's hand was almost under this bang, and the sawdust was directly shattered, and in the red light, the corner of the iron gate had been deformed, and the place of the bombardment was deeply sunk in, completely distorted The general stood there, his mouth and nose covered with blood, and even blood flowing from his earholes, but he roared wildly, snatched the hammer from the hand of a soldier, and flew down I saw him striding forward, and when the rain of arrows fell, he was in the midst of this rain of arrows, and the hammer in his hand once again carried a red fighting light, and bombarded the deformed place of the city gate In the midst of this third roar, I heard the sound of iron cracking, and immediately saw the red light under the city gate, and suddenly dimmed.
Among the rebels behind him, there was a surging shout "The gates are broken, the gates are broken" In between, the military general stood under the city gate, and the iron hammer in his hand was only one handle left, but on the iron gate of the unbreakable triumphal arch, the corner of the surface had been completely penetrated Although it was only a hole of no more than half a meter, it had been completely distorted, and this hole and perforation were so clear in front of me After half a year of fierce battles, the solidity of this triumphal arch once made the rebels desperate, but tonight it was finally broken through, although it was only such a small hole, but the shock to both the offensive and defensive sides was far more than that "Kill him, kill him" The roar of the defenders on the city walls finally became a little panicked, and the impregnability of the Arc de Triomphe was almost rooted in the hearts of all the defenders.
At this moment, seeing that the iron gate was actually broken, it suddenly made the defenders a little panicked.
A more dense rain of arrows fell, and the rebel soldiers standing under the city gate suddenly fell in pieces screaming, and the fierce general was hit by dozens of arrows, but he was still standing there, like a hedgehog, but the people behind finally realized that the general had already lost his breath "The Sixth Flag Regiment is transferred tonight, no matter how many people die, you are not allowed to take a step back" Standing in the middle of the military column, Salvador looked at the Arc de Triomphe from afar, his face sank like water, and looked back at his subordinates: "Tonight, we have only one way forward, only forward" The rebels' frenzied offensive seemed to have squeezed all their energy out of the frenzied way, and this kind of fierce attack regardless of sacrifice had completely put on a crazy posture, as if they had no tomorrow The defenders on the Arc de Triomphe suddenly felt tremendous pressure.
Although the Arc de Triomphe was still firmly in the hands of the defenders, the shocking blow of the rebel general just now damaged a hole in the iron gate gate.
But what it brings to people is more of a psychological shock, after all, that small hole, even a young child can't get into it.
It's just that the rebels' already somewhat depressed momentum has risen again, and the follow-up rebels continue to rush up as if they don't want to die, new siege vehicles are pushed up, and no matter how many corpses are dropped, there are still rebels who rush to the city gate and continue to bombard the city gate one by one.
The archers on both sides had already killed and injured at least thousands, and the bodies on the river were almost united.
The rebels are in such a frantic posture that the defenders have been forced to start moving.
More and more troops were transferred to the direction of the Arc de Triomphe, and the reserves in the city and the other defenses of the city wall were nervously mobilizing forces to gather towards the Arc de Triomphe.
"Some, some more," Salvador sat on horseback, watching the slaughter under the city gates, and the corners of his eyes began to jump.
So far tonight, the rebels have suffered more than 6,000 casualties, most of them from his Salvadoran army.
This is already a rare and sincere cooperation of the rebel alliance since the siege of Osgilia.
But now, the governors of many military districts are no longer willing to send more troops.
After all, everyone has selfish intentions, and in this world, the army is the capital in hand, and if the troops are exhausted, how can we talk about a foothold in the future The fierce battle in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe has awakened the entire city of Osgiria, which was asleep at night.
The city defense was in urgent motion, and Hughes stood on the city wall, and could see his left side, and in the distance was in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe, where the battle was already bleeding.
Looking back, there were already countless soldiers on the streets of the city, with torches galloping towards the Arc de Triomphe.
The fierce battle of the Arc de Triomphe had forced the defenders of the city to move, and even just now, a herald from the city defense ran to this section of the city defense, and ordered the city defense of this section to send 50 people to support the Arc de Triomphe.
The herald was killed by Hughes's elite men, disguised as defenders, and his body was left in the corner of the stomping wall.
Hughes was nervously calculating the time Pretty much that's about it I can't wait any longer for the city to start mobilizing people, if I don't act again, I'm afraid that the defenders will find that there is an abnormal situation in this section of the city defense where they are "everyone prepare" Hughes turned his head and drew the sword in his hand: "Everyone is ready to go ahead disguised as a defender, and the others will follow us to Wellington Gate" Wellington Gate is the most inconspicuous of the marvelous fortifications of the southwest of Osgillia.
Compared with the Arc de Triomphe, a miracle of the time, which is tens of meters high, the height of the Wellington Gate is only 20 meters, which is the same as the city wall.
Although the 20-meter-high city gate is already considered a first-class majestic building from the mainland, this city gate is the most inconspicuous one in this majestic city defense system of Osgilia.
This gate was never the main direction of the rebels, for a simple reason: the moat was in this section, near the mouth of the sea, and the height of the city defense was at least five or six meters higher than the wilderness on the opposite bank on the natural slope of the terrain.
The height of five or six meters was enough for the archers of the defending army to inflict more than thirty percent of the damage on the enemy before they could rush to the edge of the moat.
More importantly, this section of the moat is close to the mouth of the sea, and the width of the river is as long as 150 meters The bridge over the river is less than three meters wide, and the bridge outside the Arc de Triomphe can allow several carriages to run in parallel at the same time.
This is one of the oldest bridges in Osgilia.
However, it was this situation that the rebels never attacked the city gate.
Are you kidding The river is 150 meters wide, but the bridge is only 3 meters wide, and if you want to run over the bridge to attack the city defense, then the soldiers of the attacking side will be forced to squeeze into an area less than three meters wide in an area of 150 meters This is simply sent to the door to be slaughtered by the archers of the defenders Moreover, the narrow bridge deck also limited the siege equipment from being pushed up.

You know, if you push a siege cart onto the bridge, the bridge deck will almost be full, and there will be no soldiers in charge of the cart on either side.
For a long time, this ancient gate and bridge, even in the city of Osgiria, was already one of the most depressed places, and in this gate was the slum of Osgiria, and this gate and bridge were also specially designed for the poor to enter and exit.
Naturally, it doesn't need to be built too majestic.
However, this is also the gateway to the city of Osgilia, as a defensive side, under the command of the two generals Adric and Span, there is no disdain and laxity for the city gates of Wellington, which is garrisoned by a full thousand defenders.
And a few days ago, Adric also sent a crossbow battalion here, Adric believes that the wide river and too narrow bridges are the most suitable battlefields for archers, and if the enemy dares to attack here, then this additional crossbow battalion will become a nightmare for the rebel attacking soldiers.
This measure has been done well enough.
Adrick and Span's arrangement is perfect enough.
But tonight's fortress was conquered from within The fierce battle in the direction of Osgilia attracted most of the attention of the defenders of the city.
No one noticed that behind the line of defense, far from the main point of attack, such a group of soldiers in the uniform of the defenders was hurrying through the night.
The city gate of Wellington is not far from where Hughes is, tonight the rebels' crazy attack, the army in the city is moving, in the chaos, his people galloped all the way, there are people in the uniform of the defenders running in the front, and even Gerry, the inner leader, along the way, through the defense area of the two city defenses was not even blocked, when interrogated, it was also Gerry who came forward, he had the officer badge of the defenders, only said that he was on the orders of General Span, worried that the rebels would sneak attack at night, and went to the city gate of Wellington to strengthen the defense.
Almost bloodless, hundreds of elites have quietly come to the defense area of the Wellington City Gate.
There were originally a thousand defenders here, and just before tonight, there was a battalion of men who were temporarily transferred to the Arc de Triomphe.
Under the city walls, Hughes whispered among the soldiers: "The opportunity is right in front of you, take this city gate, there is our lurking cavalry brigade behind the hillside outside the city, the defenders here will never expect that someone will attack them from behind, and they are only a few hundred people, now the people in the city are attracted to the triumphal arch, we just need to take this city gate with one blow, support it for a while, let the cavalry enter the city, even if this battle is a big reward, I, Hughes, will not be stingy" After speaking, the governor of the Armenian Military District, who has always prided himself on his aristocratic demeanor, actually drew his long sword himself, and was the first to pounce towards the city gate As soon as Adric got the attack on the Arc de Triomphe, he rushed to the city gate with his own personal cavalry.
When he arrived, General Spann had already arrived first, and there was a sea of blood outside the city, but Adric had already rushed to the command hall of the barracks.
He had barely entered the door when he saw Spann rapidly reprimanding several officers.
"What's the matter" Adric didn't look too nervous, and even showed a sneer: "These guys outside the city changed their surnames tonight, and they actually chose the Arc de Triomphe to attack." ” Span glanced at Adric, saluted first, and said in a deep voice: "I only came a moment earlier than you, these guys are a little crazy tonight, I don't think it's usual."
Just now I have gone up to the city gate to see if they are desperate to come to El Salvador, but I am afraid that he has already filled in three flag regiments, and he will not retreat with such a big loss. ” Adric frowned: "What, does he want to fight with us, our troops are in a weak position, we have been fighting for half a year, dead and wounded, and now there are only 20,000 troops in the city who can fight, guarding such a long city wall defense line, we can't deploy all our troops, if El Salvador they really fight with us, we can't fight."
Even if it's a one-to-ten death and injury exchange, we can't consume them. ” Speaking of this, Adric looked at Span, and seeing that Span's expression was a little nervous, he smiled: "However, those guys outside the city, I know the details of these people too well, and they are absolutely unwilling."
Those guys are reluctant to let their strength suffer too much loss, their hearts are not aligned, we can hold on to today, otherwise, if we fight from the beginning, we will not be able to hold it a long time.
It's just that it's a little unusual for them to be so crazy tonight."
"Is it the last madness" Spann squinted: "After the Landis landing, I guess these guys are not far from retreating, is it because they are desperate tonight, and after fighting, they are willing to retreat so if we retreat this time, will we see the sun?"
Adric nodded: "There is some truth, but from what I know about that guy in El Salvador, he is not that stupid."
Is it a feint to attack the Arc de Triomphe, and then divide the troops to attack the other gates?"
