    Chapter 26 Unbelievable information

    The defeated Baron Bratt had no shame in going to see General Kevlar, and sent two cavalrymen who had already rushed to the camp of the noble coalition outside the east gate of Waterdeep City.

    In the main city of Waterdeep, General Platt tightly defended the city wall and inspected the protection on the west.  At this time, the deep-water port outside Deepwater City was deserted. General Bonos led more than 500 people to tow all the battlefields of Elant, including merchant ships, to the East China Sea Bay, more than 10 kilometers away from the deep-water port.

    At the same time, the flagship Hailan and several Hailan series battleships with dense slingshots, brought by more than 300 people, were docked one kilometer away from the port, watching the battlefield closely.

    In the East Gate, the gap in the city wall that was once destroyed by bronze cannons, although Lin Fenghan organized workers to rebuild it with bricks, lime, and stones over the past few days, it was more than 4 meters high, but the new city wall could not match the structure, height, and density.  The surrounding city walls were very dangerous. Pulet, Bonos and others paid close attention to this area and sent a lot of troops to defend it.

    At this time, the aristocratic coalition, under the command of General Kefla, had been attacking the east wall of Waterdeep City for a round. However, they suffered heavy losses under the attack of the Elante longbowmen and the guard infantry. In addition, noon was approaching, and the soldiers were marching a long distance.  He was very tired and could not exert his fighting power, so he withdrew his troops to rest and eat.

    In the meeting hall of the Noble Alliance, many nobles and knights were discussing.

    ¡°The city wall here is so strong! I really don¡¯t know how the Elante army broke through here.¡±

    "They developed an ultra-long-range trebuchet called a bronze cannon, which can throw 200 to 300 kilograms of artillery shells one kilometer away to attack the city wall. From the east, they directly used the bronze cannon to destroy the city wall. Only then did they  The soldiers of Waterdeep City, who had no morale, low training, and extremely low combat effectiveness, abandoned their helmets and armor and suffered heavy injuries. They then captured Waterdeep City with slight losses."

    "Since there are some leaks in the east wall and have been breached, why don't we focus on attacking the east wall?"

    "You are a pig! The Elantra naval fleet is parked in the deep-water port, and its powerful and intensive firepower is constantly aimed at the East Gate battlefield. Just now we have organized more than 400 militiamen, more than 100 soldiers, and more than 10 knights  We went to test it out, but a team of more than 500 people was actually shot to death by the navy's long-range naval gun in five rounds, and more than 100 people were injured. The knights, soldiers, and militiamen turned around and ran away in fear. Some of them are still alive.  Where are the unfortunate ghosts moaning outside the east gate city wall?"

    "Ah! Then what do you think we should do? The group of Elantine infantry in Waterdeep City defended stubbornly. I went to seduce them. Damn it, no one paid attention to me. Baron Bratt is such a fool. He has been operating here for so long.  Unexpectedly, I didn¡¯t get any support at all.¡±

    "Yeah! Those local soldiers in Waterdeep City are ungrateful and greedy for money. That guy, Baron Elante, used a few small official positions and freedom to buy them all off. It's really abominable."

    "Cough!"

    "Cough!"

    Kevlar coughed twice and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone. I estimate that there are less than 2,000 people in Waterdeep City, and we have more than 6,000 people. Within 2 hours this morning, I have dispatched personnel to urgently harvest  The wood has now manufactured more than 30 simple siege ladders, a large battering ram truck, and our two professional super-large catapult siege engines. Once lunch is finished, we will start from the east  Attack the gap and the west gate together."

    "Try to break through the city wall and kill them within an hour."

    "Everyone must work hard soon! Climbing the city wall first, there will be special benefits for the troops entering the city." Kevlar smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to encourage.

    "Yeah?"

    "What special benefit?"

    ¡­¡­

    "Report to the general, two of our joint cavalry are outside, saying they want to see you and have an urgent military intelligence report." Suddenly, a guard soldier walked into the conference room and said loudly to Kevlar.

    "What information?"

    Kevlar frowned and whispered: "Let them come in."

    "yes!"

    One of Blatter's leading Guards Cavalry walked into the hall with sorrow and panic. Looking at so many people in the hall, the cavalry squad leader whispered to Kevlar: "Your Excellency General, I brought  Baron Brat asked me to report the information from the battlefield of the Second Army to you alone."

    "What?"

    "Let's come in and talk."

    Kevlar¡¯s ??expression changed, and he pulled the cavalry squad leader along the side door of the tent into a separate room. Several nobles with sharp ears around them quietly stood in groups outside the tent to eavesdrop.

      The captain of the Guards Cavalry Squadron of Brat looked at General Kefla sadly and said in a low voice: "Your Excellency General, according to your request, His Excellency Baron Brat has urged the cavalry to march quickly since it was still dark in the morning."

    "The weather was cold and gloomy in the morning. We didn't have a good breakfast. We were afraid of the cold, so the marching speed slowed down, which was almost the same as the infantry marching speed. Later, when the weather got warmer, we speeded up the marching, but the forward took the wrong way, and we ran 20 times in vain.  Many kilometers. Later, the baron became anxious and rode ahead."

    "Hmph! They actually ran the wrong way. What a bunch of idiots. The navigators who led the army should be arrested and sent to the gallows. But Brat is pretty good, and he actually ran ahead on horseback." Kefla's face was angry and he sneered at the corner of his mouth.  , nodded slowly and commented.

    "But there are too many knights and gold-plated nobles in the noble coalition. They have to take a break after running for more than half an hour, making the march very slow."

    "When we were close to 10 o'clock, we finally reached the village of Weilin, where the Second Army and the Elant army had a decisive battle. There were actually a few cavalry patrolling us outside the road. They actually said that the battle was over, the Second Army had won, and Elant  The entire army was wiped out." The cavalry squad leader opened his eyes wide and shook his head in disbelief.

    "Yeah?"

    Kevlar perked up and excitedly interjected: "I knew that my old friend Bumishiu was definitely a cautious and excellent general. Now it is easy to defeat the defenders of the Elantra Deepwater Port."

    "No! General, we found out later that we had fallen into a trap. These cavalrymen led us to the place where they held a celebration banquet in Weilin Village. Many of our noble cavalrymen dismounted and went to the banquet without caring, but they were all arrested.  , only the cautious Baron Bratt and a few cavalry ran out."

    "Baron Bratt feels that he has let you down. He sent me to report the news to you."

    Kevlar¡¯s ??body suddenly shook, he grabbed the cavalry captain¡¯s shoulder, and asked quickly: ¡°You were actually ambushed?¡±

    "How is the Second Army? Do you know any news about them?"

    The cavalry captain shook his head with a grimace and whispered: "When we entered the village, we saw many captured people. At first we thought they were people from the Elante Army, but later we guessed they were soldiers from the Second Army."

    "According to my conversation with the Elant army that was chasing us, their cavalry loudly told us that the Second Army had been defeated by Baron Yiliu Yun and that they had been completely wiped out, but we couldn't tell the truth from the lie."

    "No!"

    "Absolutely impossible."

    "I know General Boumisio. This man is very cautious in his work. He can't be defeated so directly. Those Elante cavalry must be scaring you."

    "The Second Army is very likely to be defeated. General Bumishu led the remaining troops to escape back to the Senvi Mountains. We must be careful. Even if the Elant army can defeat the Second Army, their own losses will definitely be  Not small, it seems I have to speed up the attack on Waterdeep City."

    "At any cost, I must capture Waterdeep City around two to three o'clock in the afternoon before Yi Liuyun leads the main army back to Waterdeep City." General Kefla thought calmly after holding his head in pain.
