This small team is actually not "small" at all.
There are not only the 500-person survey corps led by Rosso Brune, but also more than two hundred Nightsong guards who are accustomed to walking in the mountains.
Taking advantage of the trend of Dornish Marches's "Blood Headhunting Order", they infiltrated into the Red Mountains in advance, then traveled all the way south, successfully turned around, and climbed over the inaccessible and steep mountains on the west side of Prince's Pass.
After passing through the mountains, Rosso and the other three led the team down to the plain area inside the pass. The detachment did not take a break, but went straight to launch a surprise attack on Wangjiacheng in the center of the pass.
At this time, Dornish Marches's army of ten thousand people had launched an offensive in the north of Wangjiacheng. The soldiers shouted and came to Kingsgrave to protect the siege equipment.
The battering ram hit the city gate, making a dull thud, and the roar of arrows piercing the sky above the head. The continuous attacks attracted the attention of the Kingsgrave defenders to the north side of the city wall.
As for the team of Rosso and others, Old Gods and the strange ghosts quietly bypassed them and moved to the back of Wangjiacheng.
Compared with the strict defense on the front city wall, the number of soldiers behind the city is obviously much smaller, and the defense is extremely weak.
"Do it!"
Rosso ordered in a low voice, and his men drew their bows and fired the first arrow.
Immediately afterwards, young Roland Storm quickly led the team forward.
He raised the thickened kite shield in front of him, led the Nightsong soldiers who were already gearing up, picked up the makeshift ladder, and rushed towards the city wall.
"Kill!
Roland let out an angry roar with a sound like a bell. He put up the shield in his left hand and waved the sword in his right hand at high speed, blocking or deflecting all the arrows that were shot at random from the opposite side.
Under his leadership, the soldiers quickly set up the ladder on the wall, and Roland was the first to grab the ladder and climb up. The illegitimate son was unstoppable.
The defenders on the city wall were caught off guard and swung their weapons in panic, slashing downwards, but they could not withstand Roland's ferocious power. The shield on the bastard's left hand blocked the fatal blow, and the sword in his right hand was lifted up, accurately piercing half of the throat of one of the defenders.
With a kick of his feet and the strength of his elbows, Roland suddenly rolled up to the top of the city. The moment he stood up with his feet on the ground, he squatted half-crouched and swept with his sword, killing two more defenders who had no time to react. Dornish's intestines flowed all over the floor.
He was like a human-shaped storm, or like a tiger rushing into a flock of sheep. He suddenly gained a firm foothold on the top of the city, and also opened up the direction for the following soldiers to climb the city. He became the well-deserved first person in today's battle.
At this time.
Rosso Brune, who was commanding the archer group under his command to suppress the city's garrison from a distance, observed the fierce performance of Nightsong's illegitimate son, and the fighting spirit in his chest became more intense.
He turned around and said to Sir Io Mein beside him, "Sir Io, help me take care of the archers of the corps and continue to provide cover. I will leave this place to you!"
Before he could finish his words or wait for Io's response, Rosso rushed out with two swords on his back.
How come one or both of these young people are like this——
The calm Sir Io was speechless and shook his head helplessly, with half a tomato in his mouth.
Rosso quickly rushed to the bottom of the city wall, climbed quickly along the stabilized ladder, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to the top of the city like a monkey.
He was extremely courageous. As soon as he stabilized his body at the edge of the battlement, he without hesitation pulled out a pair of steel swords from behind. The two sharp swords flashed several cold lights in the sun.
Taking advantage of his "condescension", Rosso flipped his wrist and chopped off the heads of two soldiers in succession. Blood spurted out and dyed the leather armor on his body red.
The killing went smoothly, and Rosso was not in a hurry to jump off the battlements and expand his range of activities. Instead, he wandered around the edge of the dangerous high wall.
His steps were light, and he jumped continuously from battlement to battlement like a civet cat. It was like playing, and Dornish's spear couldn't hit him at all.
Rosso kept swinging his swords, and people from Wangjiacheng kept falling under his swords.
Halfway through, he still had time to greet Roland, who was fighting the enemy bravely. "Roland, leave this to me! You lead the people to attack the city as soon as possible and meet the main force!"
Roland heard this and responded loudly, "Okay! Sir Rosso, be careful too!"
After saying that, he led the Nightsong soldiers who had climbed into the city and rushed towards the city.
"Be careful? It's them who should be careful!"
Rosso finally jumped off the battlement for the first time. When his feet touched the ground, his body rotated rapidly, and his two swords struck continuously, slicing through the neck of a soldier and piercing the chest of another soldier.
He used the corpse of the Dorne soldier whose body he had pierced to block the sneak attacks of other enemy soldiers. Rosso, who was hiding behind the corpse, swept his gaze across the city.
At a glance, he caught a glimpse of a certain general who was wearing eye-catching armor and organizing the counterattack of the remaining defenders. That was Kingsgrave Earl Dargoth's younger brother, Sir Mis Manwudi.
Luo Suo let out a haha, a stern look appeared on his face, he pushed the corpse and drew his sword, stepped forward with his feet, and dodges sharply, charging straight at the armor-piercing man.
As soon as Mis Manwudi stabilized his position, he saw a black shadow coming towards him. He was startled and quickly raised his sword to block it.
But his strength was far from that of Rosso Brune. He barely resisted the first sword, but was scratched on the outer elbow by Rosso's second sword.
Mis screamed, and the sword came out of his hand.
Rosso ducked to avoid it, and stabbed forward again with the steel sword in his hand, directly penetrating Mies' lower abdomen.
This time he learned his lesson and did not pull violently and make himself covered in filth.
With his sword drawn, Rosso completely eliminated this key figure. He looked around and looked at himself. The defenders at the top of the city also showed signs of collapse.
He was covered in blood from the killing, but he didn't care and started laughing wildly----
"Lord Earl! The enemy troops attacked behind the city. The defenders there are being defeated and the enemy has boarded the city!"
The hurried shouts passed through the sounds of fighting and reached the ears of Wangjiacheng Earl.
Dagosh Manwudi's complexion changed suddenly. He had used all his limited troops to defend the front, and so far he could only hold it back. There was a fire in the backyard again. If he left it alone, he would be attacked from both front and rear, which would undoubtedly make things worse.
This Earl, who had committed many crimes including burning, killing, looting and committing many crimes under the connivance of Dornish Marches, seems to have tasted despair at this moment.
In panic, Dagoushi could only urgently mobilize a group of soldiers from the garrison at the city gate to rush to the back city for reinforcements, but with such a small force, he was already stretched thin.
After this split, the defense strength of the front and back will be weakened, and it will fall into a dilemma of focusing on one and losing the other.
On the frontal battlefield, the war is also entering a fierce stage.
The offensive of the coalition forces under Titus became more and more fierce. The battering ram hit the thick front of the city gate again and again. Every time it hit, there was a loud sound that shook the ears. The cracked wooden marks on the city gate became more and more deep.
However, the Euphorbia warriors of Nightsong were in an embarrassing situation.
The long-handled axes and halberds in their hands are suitable for both offense and defense, and are quite powerful. They are never afraid of confrontation. However, when they need to attack a city and climb, they become a burden. The long ax handle is not convenient to carry around.
And if they have to carry weapons, they can't climb up normally.
Stonehelm's Meteor Hammer Soldier was at a loss and encountered a similar problem.
The heavy weight of the chain hammer and armor made it difficult for them to become good climbers. Just as they were about to climb up, before they could slowly reach the top of the city, they were probably already targets for the archers on the wall.
At the critical moment, soldiers Blackhaven and Harvest Hall showed up. They stood up and completely stole the limelight of this siege battle.
Blackhaven's harpooners quickly formed a formation, rushed forward a few steps, and charged up their spears. The dense javelins were like a black rainstorm, pouring down toward the city head one after another.
The heavy spears broke through the air and hit the top of the city wall with a sharp roar. The Dorne archers hiding behind the wall had no time to raise their heads to fight back, and were pinned down by the dense volley of javelins. Many people had their bodies pierced by javelins and fell from the top of the city screaming.
The remaining people only dared to huddle behind the stone stacks and did not dare to show their heads easily.
After the harpooneers suppressed the firepower at the top of the city, Harvest Hall's sword fighters seized the opportunity.
Harvest Hall Earl personally led his sword fighters to rush up to the city wall. These sword-carrying warriors who specialized in melee combat were very strong and their climbing speeds were very fast.
As soon as they came to the city wall, they pulled out the cross sword from behind and swung it, hacking at the Dorne soldiers, most of whom only wore light armor. They killed them randomly and took the lives of the enemies, just like chopping melons and vegetables.
The front line in front of the city also collapsed. Kingsgrave's soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and many began to flee in confusion.
It is worth noting that the Knights of the Gendarmerie Regiment and the light cavalry group of the Fawn Hall led by Egon Leavell have not appeared on any battlefield at this moment, and it is unknown where they have gone?
Titus Don't worry about Ai Geng and others, Griffith will take good care of them----
Seeing that the situation was over, Dagoshi Manwudi stumbled away from the city with only a few dozen guards around him, and ran towards the direction of his family in the city.
He planned to pick up his family first and escape from the castle that was about to fall.
It's a pity that fate - it seems that a more appropriate ending has been arranged for him.
Just when Dagoushi and his party were about to arrive at the family residence, a tall strange figure suddenly appeared in front of them leading another group of people. They met him on a narrow road and bumped into each other.
The visitor is Roland Storm, the illegitimate son of Nightsong, who first entered the city.
Roland didn't know Dagoshi Earl, but he clearly saw the white skull emblem on the chest of Manwudi, who was wearing plate armor, and a fanatical fighting spirit immediately emerged from his eyes.
This young pioneer is a loyal believer in the "warriors" among Seven, and his worship of warriors is comparable to his bravery.
"Dagosh Manwudi? Your death has come!"
Roland roared with overwhelming force, raised his sword and shield and rushed towards the target.
In the eyes of Dagoshi Earl, the face destroyed by measles looked particularly ferocious at this moment.
Dagoushi's guards quickly stepped forward to stop him, but were intercepted by Nightsong soldiers.
Occasionally someone would rush by, but it was no match for Roland.
Without the protection of the guards, Dagoushi had no choice but to go into battle himself.
But he is usually very pampered, and his actual combat ability is mediocre, and his duel experience is even more worrisome - if challenging and abusing smugglers can be considered experience.
At this moment, his mind was in a state of confusion. After fighting against the incomparably brave Roland, Dagoushi fell into an absolute disadvantage in just a few rounds.
Roland tested out the true level of Wangjiacheng Earl, seized the opportunity, raised his shield continuously, and launched several fierce blows. The thickened shield hit Dagoushi's plate armor hard, making a muffled sound of "Bang! Bang!".
Dagoushi was knocked around and staggered. He was so upset that he wanted to retching on the spot. He could hardly hold the long sword in his hand.
Roland Storm roared again, and while Kingsgrave Earl was swaying, he rushed forward. A two-handed sword that was also weighted was as light as straw in his right hand, aiming at the crack of the disc under Dagous's armpit.
With a "puff" sound, the front end of the sword came in.
Roland pressed harder, and the round metal shield completely shattered. The sword edge penetrated deep into the opponent's body and pierced Dagoshi Earl's left ventricle diagonally.
