At this time, the archers of the noble coalition took out their bows and arrows, and started shooting at the Elant soldiers on the city wall.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Fire the arrow!"
"Javelin ready!"
"Javelin ready!"
On the west gate wall, many Elante sailors, encouraged by the centurions, released their long arrows. The security team, the young people who were hired to defend the city, and the free people who volunteered to defend the city, held flame-lit spears in their hands and looked nervously below.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
¡¡
The long arrows from both sides were shooting at each other.
The Elante archers, who had the upper hand in terms of height and bows, shot arrows downwards mercilessly. Among the 10 arrows, 3 of the noble coalition's long arrows were able to hit the city wall, while the archers of the Elant army were condescending and shot 9 out of 10 long arrows. Target, shoot onto the shield, or shoot through the shield into the body of the soldier behind you.
"ah!"
"ah!"
"Don't step on me!"
¡¡
The coalition of nobles walked to the city wall from more than 200 meters away. More than 700 crossbowmen on the wall of Elant shot a total of more than 4,000 long arrows. Unfortunately, more than 300 coalition of nobles were injured by arrows and retreated towards the camp behind.
"Vertical ladder!"
"Vertical ladder!"
"Siege the city!"
"Everyone, rush!"
"General Kevlar said that the first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with 1,000 silver coins and given the position of centurion. The centurions who are the first to gain a foothold on the city wall will be rewarded with 10 silver coins each. Come on, everyone! "
"Go!"
¡¡
Those militiamen who had prepared their own weapons and armor to participate in the lord's war worshiped with all their heart, including some noble knights, and the noble attendant infantry also roared, and the morale of the noble coalition soared unprecedentedly.
More than 30 ladders were set up on the city wall more than 1,000 meters west of Waterdeep City. Each centurion's forward militia squadron struggled to climb up the city wall.
The dense crowd made everyone in Elantra feel numb. Pulet and many Elantra centurions and squadron leaders shouted: "Javelin!"
"Projection!"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Numerous flaming javelins shot down from the tower.
In 5 seconds, more than 3,000 javelins, simply made of wooden poles, entered the crowd of the noble coalition with burning flames.
"ah!"
"Wow!"
¡°Rub it, it¡¯s burning my forehead!¡±
¡¡
The soldiers below the noble coalition were carrying wooden shields issued by the lords, but the javelins stained with grease still penetrated the shields and shot into the crowd through the gaps in the shields.
Some sharp bronze spear points of genuine javelins penetrated the shields, injuring the soldiers under the shields. Some shields caught fire, and some of the noble coalition militiamen's clothes were set on fire by wood chips thrown randomly.
"Ah! You've burned me. I'll retreat first."
"Help me! Pull me out too, I was stabbed in the arm by the tip of the spear."
"Give me a hand, I was hit in the head by a stone."
¡¡
More than 300 combat personnel were lost again. These unfortunate wounded soldiers supported each other and passed through the gaps in the crowd under the command of the centurions.
"Haberdiers, hurry up!"
"Overturn this ladder."
"Grenadier, hurry up and throw the rocks down hard."
"Someone is about to rush up."
"Everyone digs the sand with a ladle and pours it down!"
"Spill it!"
¡¡
Numerous soldiers of Elante attacked nervously, releasing spears, spears, stones, and sand continuously. More than 10 ladders were overturned and fell to the ground by the defenders of Elante with halberds.
"Ouch!"
"Damn it, why is there still sand?"
"my eyes!"
¡°My eyes are filled with sand and I can¡¯t see.¡±
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
¡¡
A lot of sand was thrown from the city wall. While the eyes of the militiamen climbing the wall were confused by the sand, many peopleThe soldiers in the city used spears, stones, bows and arrows to attack the militiamen who did not hold their shields properly and did not know their direction. Many militiamen were shot over and fell to the ground in a state of bewilderment.
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
"Hey!"
"one!"
"two!"
"Three!"
"Hey!"
¡¡
Suddenly, Platt and the soldiers around the west gate city wall felt a vibration. Looking down, they saw more than 50 coalition soldiers holding shields and pushing huge battering rams towards the city gate.
Platt raised his hands with a serious face and shouted: "Incendiary bombs, put down the incendiary bombs quickly."
"Remember! Don't save anymore. Throw away all the more than 300 incendiary bombs made today."
"yes!"
"yes!"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
¡¡
Numerous round balls wrapped in linen and cotton were thrown from the west wall, emitting black smoke and flames. Especially the center of the west gate where the battering ram attacked hit one-third of the incendiary bombs.
"Ouch! Oh my god!"
"What the hell is this!"
"I choked you to death."
¡°Holy shit, my pants are on fire, I¡¯m going to put out the fire first.¡±
¡°My shoes were on fire and burned my feet. It hurt me so much that I retreated first.¡±
¡°My eyes are almost frightened by the smoke, I will retreat first.¡±
¡¡
Many noble coalition forces complained, and some soldiers made excuses and ran towards the camp behind.
At this time, there was also fierce fighting on the east wall. The cunning Tutus divided his troops into two columns and attacked the walls of Waterdeep from the north and east.
Afraid of accidentally injuring one of their own, the Elantra navy fleet did not dare to release its bronze cannon, and instead used shipboard trebuchets and catapults to hit the enemy to the east.
Two kilometers away from the west gate of Waterdeep City, the pioneer scouts of the Elante army finally returned to the boundaries of Waterdeep City. The most elite light cavalry in the vanguard ran towards the surrounding battlefields, searching for intelligence and reconnaissance of the battlefield. A huge decisive battle was about to come.
