    Chapter 48: Siege of Yuri Bay II

    ?? Continuous jeers came from the southern wall of Yuri Bay. The recruits of the Elant army lined up on the flat ground 600 meters away were whispering to each other. There was a commotion and they looked at the ladder in their hands in fear.  8 9. .

    "Quiet!"

    "Quiet!"

    "Waiting for instructions."

    Each centurion and veteran squadron leader stood up from the team and shouted: "Don't worry, the baron will not order us to use our lives to storm the city wall of Yuriwan City."

    "Our super siege weapon, the bronze cannon, has not yet exerted its full power. Wait for a while, and you will know what the real shock is."

    ¡­¡­

    Lin Fenghan and others waited quietly. Ma Youden looked at the many commotion troops and shook his head and said: "These recruits are so impatient! They have just begun to test, and their morale has already dropped."

    "You can't blame them." Coland shook his head and said: "Most of our militiamen have only participated in the militia training for three months. They have never faced a real war before. The reason why most of the militiamen were mobilized for this expedition is  Participating is to train them, make them become real soldiers, and accumulate more strength for our Elantra cause."

    "Um!"

    Davout nodded and said seriously: "When we attack the city later, I will line up the veteran centurion in front, followed by two recruits' centurion in the rear, and one veteran centurion in the back. Be sure to let most of the militia participate.  During the siege battle. After the battle is over, this same group of recruits will be responsible for war services and personnel management to exercise their hard-working will and perseverance, so that this group of recruits will gradually grow into veterans."

    "kindness!"

    "The show has begun."

    ¡­¡­

    After the Elantra main fleet had just calibrated the shells, the observer and gunner calculated the new coordinate data and informed the captain. The captain asked the sailors to row back and forward, and immediately anchored and stopped after reaching the predetermined position.

    The artillerymen waited until the bronze cannon completely emptied the gunpowder with their claws, then put the gunpowder bag in from the muzzle again, and re-inserted the gunpowder fuse into the iron hole at the rear of the cannon.  One after another, conical semi-finished copper block shells weighing 300 kilograms and 400 kilograms were put into the cannon.  After the artillery observer observed the target and corrected the angle according to the triangular ruler, the gunner measured it again.  After feeling that there was no problem, we continued to wait. Eight minutes later, the red flag kept waving, and the gunner excitedly ordered the gunner to light the fuse.

    Boom!

    Boom!

    Boom!

    ¡­¡­

    Huge red sparks and yellow-white mist are constantly emitted from the bronze cannon at the front of the battleship.  The giant cannon, which used most of the gunpowder and shells, continuously knocked the battleship back three to five meters.  Fortunately, all the warships had anchored in advance and the iron chains firmly restrained the ships.  Otherwise, if it takes three to five minutes to load a shell and then recalibrate it, the next launch will take at least another five minutes.

    In the shocked eyes of the Elantra army and the Yuri Bay city army, forty-nine huge, pointed conical artillery shells were fired on the wall of the main city of Yuri Bay with a sharp sound.

    Boom!

    Boom!

    Boom!

    ¡­¡­

    Nearly forty armor-piercing projectiles were fired on the city wall, and the sounds of broken masonry and soldiers screaming could be heard continuously.  The newly developed armor-piercing bullets have shown their unparalleled power to everyone.

    The five-kilometer-long city wall of the main city of Yuri Bay.  More than a dozen gaps of three to five meters have appeared, and nearly forty pieces of masonry have fallen to the ground. The Elantra army equipped with ladders over two meters long can easily climb up.

    "Oh my God!"

    "What is this?"

    "My arm!"

    "My arm!"

    "I'm pinned down by a stone."

    "Hurry up and save me!"

    "Captain, help me!"

    "I'm dying!"

    ¡­¡­

    A group of soldiers stationed on the city wall were hit by cannonballs and thrown down by the collapsed city wall. Many unprepared soldiers were buried by the collapsed city wall in shock.  The soldiers on the remaining city walls fell to the ground in panic amidst the constant roaring and shaking sounds. Many of them lost their footing and fell from the city wall without guardrails at the rear.

    In just over ten meters.  More than 2,000 people stationed on the east wall were killed and injured after falling and were buried, with nearly half of them dead or injured.  The southern tower of Yuriwan City was also hit by a cannonball, and less than half of its parapet collapsed.  When the city lord of Julali and others got up from the ground in panic,By that time, half of the southern army had lost their combat effectiveness.

    Lin Fenghan held on to the telescope and kept looking seriously at the surrounding city walls, and finally turned his gaze to the smoke-wrapped city tower directly in front of him.

    The light yellow smoke gradually dispersed, and in Lin Fenghan's eyes, many people in gorgeous clothes were walking into the pavilion stairs and disappearing on the tower.  In other city walls and arrow towers, many soldiers were moving around in a panic.

    Suddenly, Lin Fenghan stretched out his hands decisively and shouted: "The whole army attacks!"

    "What?"

    "The whole army attacks!"

    Kelande touched his head in confusion and asked: "Baron, the wall on the opposite side has not been broken yet. It is not too late for us to wait for the bronze cannon to blast again as planned!"

    "That's enough, attack immediately." Lin Feng coldly turned around, looked at Ke Langde and others coldly and said: "At this time, our naval guns have already had a huge impact, and their city wall has been destroyed by less than half. The most important result of the battle is  From their city lords, generals, and officers to the soldiers, they have all been fooled by our efforts, and most of the enemies have begun to tremble and fear. The results we have achieved by seizing the opportunity to attack at this time are far better than those of the first class.  They came to their senses and reorganized their troops to resist us, and the results were much better."

    "ah!"

    "oh!"

    "Understood!"

    "The Baron is indeed the most outstanding general in the world!"

    ¡­¡­

    "Go!"

    "Kill!"

    "The Elantra army attacks!"

    "The Swordsmen Brigade attacks!"

    "Archers march forward!"

    "The spearmen group advances!"

    ¡°Advance the grenadiers with the lock on them!¡±

    Speed ??looked at the tawny army that was pouring forward like a tide with loud shouts. He shouted and raised his hands: "Trebuchet, launch!"

    "Ballista, fire!"

    ¡­¡­

    The gunners, gunners and captains of the Elantra fleet who were emptying the cannons all instinctively stopped aiming the cannons when they saw the attacking army. Although they were confused as to why the army attacked in advance.

    "one!"

    "two!"

    "three!"

    "Shoot!"

    "Shoot!"

    "Shoot!"

    ¡­¡­

    More than 6,000 navy archers and army archers were scattered outside the eastern city wall. They raised their bows and arrows and aimed them at the city wall more than 200 to 300 meters away. They fired long arrows at some of the soldiers who still clung to the city wall.

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    Whoosh!

    ¡­¡­

    Numerous long arrows were thrown down from the sky in a curve like meteors, and a dense stream of arrows hit the city wall and behind the city wall.

    "ah!"

    "ah!"

    "ah!"

    "My arm!"

    "my leg!"

    "Where did this long arrow come from?"

    ¡­¡­

    The soldiers observed on the city wall fell down in fear and raised their shields, but the reserve team under the city wall behind them did not have such good luck and were shot inexplicably.  An aura of panic spread among the reserves. At this time, the morale of the reserves in the rear was also rapidly declining.
