Warhammer Throne

Chapter 154: , Siege of Ulsen

More than 18,000 people from the Central Army began to return. The Marquis of Angchi and his lieutenant Baron Pierre discussed the military situation. After the entire army of the Left Army was annihilated, this chivalrous war was actually doomed to a defeat.

"After Adelaide's stupid defeat, our war this time has already failed." The Marquis of Angshi said with hatred, and he really wished Adelaide had died in battle.

"There is no way now. We must go back to support Jursen Castle, where a large amount of military supplies and food for the army are stored!" Baron Pierre was anxious, he said anxiously: "Julsen Castle has only one thousand defenders. With dozens of knights, they won't be able to hold on to an army of Beastmen for long."

"Do you mean that we are going to march directly?" Marquis de Anche thought for a moment, and asked Baron Pierre for his opinion.

Baron Pierre nodded immediately: "We must do it as soon as possible. The army has only seven days of food left. Without Yulson's supplies, the soldiers would collapse once they are out of food."

The Marquis of Angshi nodded first and agreed. The food left in his army is not much. Before, they all relied on the supply of Yulsen Castle. Now they have lost their food supplies. Once there is no food, even the most powerful knights will be able to do so. There is no strength to fight.

But the blond and blue-eyed Marquis thought for a while, and shook his head suddenly: "No, no, Pierre, you say, we can think of this layer, don't the orcs think of it? Do you know what tactics I thought of?"

"The orcs will besiege Juulson’s castle, but they will not attack, but will allow Adelaide and his group of soldiers to shiver and panic in the tall castle, and then... the orcs are very It might set an ambush on our way back and catch us by surprise!"

The Marquis of Angshi graduated from the Cavalier Academy in Curona. He has very good tactics. He is sensitively aware that if he wants to return to Yulsen Castle as soon as possible, they want it, and the Beastmen want it.

"Send a large number of scouts to let us know if there is an ambush nearby!"

"Yes!" the knights responded loudly.

Sure enough, in the march of the next two days, relying on a large number of scouts and rangers to investigate at any cost, the scouts found ambushes many times, and the Central Route Army was able to advance cautiously. Under the command of the Marquis of Anshi, the army steadily hit the ground. Embarked on the way back.

Beastmaster "Bloodhorn" Maras immediately realized that humans had been prepared for ambush, so it changed its strategy and began to attack Ulsen Castle with all its strength.

Beastmen war gangs attacked Yulson Castle under the drive of the Beastmaster. The inferior horns cut down the forest and made simple ladders. The Cyclops grabbed the stone and used the stone to suppress the serf archers on the tower.

The Earl of Adelaide anxiously hid inside the tower. Every scream and sound of hard objects outside would make the Earl alive and break down. A daytime attack resulted in the death of a dozen knights in the castle. More than two hundred serf soldiers.

Fortunately, the gates of the castle were strong enough, and the Beastmen lacked powerful siege weapons. After the storm of the day, relying on the constant sacrifice and swearing guard of the knights and soldiers, the Beastmen dropped the corpses on the ground and retreated.

At night, humans need rest, but Beastmen don't need it, so the anxious Earl of Adelaide immediately grabbed the magic communication: "My Marquis, my Marquis, this is already the third night, where are the good reinforcements? "

"The Beastmen set up a lot of ambushes on the marching road! We must proceed carefully, Adelaide, the Beastmen should not attack you with all their strength." The doubtful voice of the Marquis of Angshi came from the magic communication.

"No! The Beasts are attacking Yulsen with all their strength, they are attacking Yulsen with all their strength!" Adelaide Ziruo frantically shouted towards the magic communicator: "Listen, my Marquis , That's the voice that my soldiers and I are resisting!"

The roar of the orcs and the sound of boulders hitting the stone wall came from outside the tower. Obviously, after a short rest, another round of the orcs' offensive was about to begin.

"What? Hello? Adelaide? Can you hear it? Hold on, hold on, we will be there in one day at most!" The Marquis of Angxi immediately realized that the situation on the battlefield had changed.

The Beastmen had given up on ambushing them on the road, but turned to storm the castle.

So he immediately ordered the Central Route Army to pull out the camp quickly and speed up to return to Yulsen Castle.

"Should you notify the right-wing army to come and support?" some knights asked.

"No need, we are enough." The Marquis of Angxi is confident about destroying the Beastman army. He doesn't want the third son of the Holy Grail knight and the Red Dragon Duke to share the credit, and the right army will even return. The aid will take several days.

Along the way, the Earl of Adelaide asked for help one after another, each time more critical than before. The Beastmen continued to attack Ulson Castle, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties.

At noon on September 13, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear. It was a rare good weather in the forest.

The situation at Juulson Castle has deteriorated extremely. More than half of the defenders have suffered casualties. Only a small number of people are still fighting. The arrow rain on the walls has been very sparse, the castle is full of smoke and many walls have been seriously damaged. , The beasts have come to the gate of the castle.

The wood-made siege hammer was hitting the city gate with a rumbling noise. On the gate tower, the sergeants were directing the serfs to drop arrows, and the horned beasts holding the siege hammer fell down with arrows. , But more horned beasts rushed up. The siege hammer made from the trunk of a tree was very simple and not very effective. The city gate was swayed, but there was no sign of breaking open.

In the continuous attack, the Beastmen also suffered heavy casualties. The bodies were piled up near the castle, and even the gullies were filled.

A doomsday bull walked to the side of Beastmaster "Bloodhorn" Maras, panting heavily, and a lot of heat spurted from its nostrils: "The city gate...sturdy, wood...weak."

"We... can't open... the gate." The Doomsday Bull said towards the Beastmaster.

"Trash... trash!" Beastmaster shouted angrily, knowing that it has to buy time now, and the knightly army might appear at any time: "Give me...attack again!"

"Tack again... Can't open... the gate." The Doomsday Bull continued.

"...Uh... it's all rubbish." The Beastmaster pushed the doomsday bull away, and it grinned: "It's okay... we have... Greer."

After that, under the order of the Beastmaster, a five-meter-tall one-eyed giant came out of the team of Beastmen.

"Glier! Glier! Glier!" All the orcs shouted the name of the cyclops, and saw a few wild orcs put a huge black boulder in front of the cyclops, the cyclops After screaming, he lifted the boulder and staggered towards the gate of the castle.

"Glier! Glier! Glier!"

The earl of Adelaide in the castle naturally heard the roar of the beasts outside. The sweaty earl hesitated again and again, picked up the magic communicator, and then found a gem.

After the connection was made, before the Marquis of Anche could speak, the Earl of Adelaide said in a heart-piercing voice: "My Marquis, the castle has reached its limit, and we have reached its limit. There are more than three hundred living people left."

"My marquis, my marquis, for the sake of the lady and the king, hurry up and stretch out your brother! Where are our reinforcements?"

There was silence in the communicator for a while, and then the voice of Marquis of Angxi came out.

"We are already rushing to Ulsen Castle at full speed, Earl of Adelaide, please hold on for the last thirty minutes, please hold on for the last thirty minutes, we will be there soon!"

Adelaide put down the magic messenger, the gems were already dimmed, this was already the last gem of the castle, and it was already the last chance to call.

At the gate, Greer, the one-eyed giant, stumbled to the gate with the black boulder in his hand.

"Glier! Glier! Glier!"

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The city gate finally collapsed in the orcs' carnival.

…………

An hour later, the Marquis of Angshi finally led the army of chivalry to Juelsen Castle.

In the distance, Yulson Castle was still billowing with thick smoke. The corpses of countless beasts were all over the walls, and the river was stained with filthy blood.

"It seems that we are not late." [Youyou Reading www.uutxt.xyz] The knights stretched out their hands and wiped their sweat. They have been forcibly marching day and night, and this army of more than 18,000 people finally arrived. In front of Juulson Castle.

To make matters worse, the army has run out of food. During the four-day march, the knightly army now has only three days of food left.

The knightly army gradually approached Ulsen Castle, and the knights gradually smelled a different breath.

Quiet.

It's too quiet.

"The situation is not right, gather the army and prepare to fight!" The Marquis of Angshi also realized that there was something wrong. He stretched out his hand to signal the army to stop advancing, and then divided into several units to stand by. He himself rode to the front of the army formation: "Adelaide? "

"Adelaide?"

Some black figures appeared on the tower, and a round ball-like object was dropped from the tower: "Your... count... here you are!"

"what!"

"Here you... all you... return the humans... to the humans!" The trebuchet on the castle was rudely opened, and countless pieces of rubble were thrown out of the castle, toward Flew away with the knightly army.

"Concealment!" The knights were still yelling to be concealed, but those things flew fast, they seemed very light, and even if they were hit, they didn't kill much.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

It's the head! Lots of heads!

It's the head of a knight! It's the head of a sergeant! The heads of serfs! There are even heads of servants and women in the castle!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Although the knights worked hard to suppress the fear of the serfs and encouraged their low morale, the serfs were still full of vacillation, and they did not believe the words of these knight masters.

Without the holy grail knights, they were already scared in their hearts.

"Damn it!" The Marquis of Angshi looked at the head of Adelaide who fell in front of him, knowing that Juulson Castle had fallen.

The main force of the orcs attacked the castle and lost a lot. The corpses around the castle were already piled up around the castle, so the marquis led the knightly army to besiege the remaining beasts in the castle.

In this way, the offensive and defensive sides reversed.

More than 18,000 knightly armies encamped around Ulson Castle. In order to prevent the beasts from coming to support, the Marquis arranged the army of the Duchy of Connet as a reserve team to ambush outside, and he personally led the knightly army. Begin to attack Yulson Castle.

"Go forward! My soldiers! For the lady and the king! For Britania!"

"For the lady and the king! For Bretania!"

The first was the charge of the serf infantry group. These serfs were given priority by the knights to catch up to the battlefield. They shouted slogans and formed a dense line in the fierce eyes of the knight masters. Most of the serf infantry were only wearing leather armor. There is no shield.

Arrows rained down on the city wall, and the Lesser Horned Beasts shamelessly used the large number of captured arrows. These city guards have become their possessions. Thousands of Lesser Horned Beasts are densely arranged in the castle to destroy them. The serious towers brought great losses to the Knights.

After the serfs fell in pieces, the sergeants holding shields and wearing chain mail or breastplates proceeded to attack, and then the dismounted knights. For this, the Beastman’s Beastmaster had been prepared for this, and they were taken out of the castle's armory. A large number of spears and throwing axes suppressed the attack of the knights through firepower.

For a whole day, the Chivalry army organized five waves of offensives. Although they broke into the castle at the deepest time, they were all repelled by the Beastmen.

The knights suffered heavy casualties, and the orcs also left hundreds of corpses.

The topography of the castle that occupies the top of the mountain has a wide range of undulations and rivers interspersed in it. The continuous assaults of the knights were repelled. The stacked corpses hindered the attacking route of the knights. The large amount of military supplies in the castle ensured the beasts. With plenty of arrows, the knights have never been able to take advantage. Even if a few knights and sergeants can rush into the castle, the giant minotaur and the big horn battle group can always harvest them one by one.

From the fierce battle at noon to sunset, it was the doomsday bull and the four-armed bull demon that finally determined the battlefield situation. These terrifying large-scale monster troops not only repelled the hordes of dismounted knights and charged, but even killed the serf archers who protected them. The army had to retreat.

The Marquis of Angshi began to feel bad. He first yelled at the serfs for their lowliness and cowardice, and then hoped for a night raid. The Marquis personally selected his own elite to attack the castle in the dark.

It's a pity that the orcs are better at night battles than the knights. After the knightly army approached the castle, they were forced to retreat by a large number of arrows and javelins. The two sides fought fiercely until dawn. With a fatal blow, the knights had to retreat again.

After one day's battle, the Beastmen lost more than two thousand, and the Chivalric army lost more than two hundred knights and more than three thousand serf soldiers.

The battle situation was at a stalemate. The Chivalry army surrounded the remaining 7,000 orcs in a small area near the castle and the castle, but it was still unable to eliminate them. The army of the orcs tried to break through under the command of the Beastmaster. All failed, so they made up their minds to stay on the ground and wait for reinforcements.

The Marquis of Angxi knew that the Beastmen’s reinforcements must be on the road, and there was not much time left for him, and there was not much food left for him.
