Chapter 12 Attack on Ramis City
"Baron, the arrangements for the attack on the Ramis City Infantry Regiment are as follows. Please take a look." Rana stood in the headquarters of the east bunker and pointed at the statues of soldiers representing each infantry regiment on the map.
"Colande, Bosmi led the first regiment of Elantes elite archers, and the second regiment formed in the northeast corner outside the city of Ramis."
"Ramus led the first regiment of the heavy cavalry regiment, and the second regiment formed in the south of the central square."
"The commander of the Guards Cavalry will also be arranged in the central square."
"The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th regiments of the Buckler Swordsmen Infantry were in the first line of battle in loose formations."
"The first regiment, second regiment, third regiment, fourth regiment, fifth regiment, first regiment, seventh regiment, eighth regiment, ninth regiment, and tenth regiment of the Super Lance Phalanx Infantry Regiment. Ranked No. The second row of the battle line is responsible for holding down the formation, and two-thirds of the super-pike infantry phalanx have been replaced with spears and swords. The remaining 11th and 12th infantry regiments are responsible for defending the northeast corner camp to intimidate our newly recruited legions."
"The first regiment and the second regiment of heavy spear infantry are located in the southernmost part of the military formation to protect the second artillery regiment."
"The First Special Service Infantry Regiment and the Second Special Service Infantry Regiment are responsible for managing and assisting naval transportation, assisting in the defense of the central military formation and the southern military formation, and guarding the eastern fortress."
"The logistics medical team is responsible for food production and medical maintenance, and is always on standby in the eastern camp."
"The First Artillery Regiment is located in the center of the east gate of Ramis, leading 90 ballistae, 60 trebuchets, and 40 siege vehicles. It and the naval fleet artillery with 10 bronze cannons are responsible for siege the city on the east."
"The Second Artillery Regiment is located in the southeast corner of the city wall east of Ramis, leading 40 ballistae, 30 trebuchets, 30 siege vehicles. It and 4 bronze cannons of naval guns are responsible for siegeing the southeast corner of the city."
"The first regiment of the newly formed Trimoras Elite Noble Infantry Regiment is led by Captain Moralis, a surrendered knight, who is responsible for the transportation of supplies."
"The second regiment of the newly formed Senwei Western Militia Regiment is newly promoted to the centurion, led by the former centurion Zamouli. Responsible for the defense of supplies for the northeastern military camp."
"The newly formed Milis Militia Regiment 1, 2, and 3 are responsible for the defense of the northeast camp and the transportation of supplies."
"The Elantes Southern Fleet is ready for battle, and everyone is on board, responsible for naval defense and material transportation. The Marine Corps is stationed in the eastern fortress. Support all parties at any time."
¡¡
"Um!"
"good!"
Lin Fenghan nodded with satisfaction and said: "We discussed the troop arrangement, which is divided into the northeastern defensive army, the eastern fortress defensive army, the naval fleet, and the main offensive force. The main offensive force is divided into one large and one small, north and south. Two major offensive forces.¡±
"This battle. The main purpose of our army is to test the long-range combat effectiveness of the Ramis army. Based on the situation on the scene, the army advances. After the bronze cannon breaks the opposite city wall, it first launches an evacuation attack. If the resistance on the opposite side is strong, , we will continue the bombardment according to the situation."
"good!"
Rana wiped his palms and said loudly: "Baron, it's past two o'clock now, let's assemble the large forces! Our soldiers have been waiting for a long time."
"good!"
Lin Fenghan also looked excitedly at the huge city opposite. Wiping his palms, he looked at the general's guard seriously and said, "Gefirli, this time you are here to deliver a message to Count La Mille, asking him to surrender as soon as possible if he is wise, so as to save us more effort."
"good!"
??Gefili, a slender and powerful man in his twenties from Shenmu City, strode out wearing a silver chainmail, bravely patted his chest and said: "I will definitely complete my mission."
After saying goodbye, Gefirli mounted a white war horse and ran towards the city of Ramis with a white flag more than five meters high.
"Huh!"
"What it is?"
"White cavalry. One man came alone. Captain, let's take aim quickly!"
"Idiot, the white battle flag means negotiator or surrender. The battlefield is sacrosanct. Anyone found attacking the white flag will be executed unconditionally after being captured. Even if our army wins, our teammates will also attack the white flag. We are dissatisfied with the behavior of the white flag. In the current situation where we cannot gain much. It is a thankless task for us to attack the white flag messenger." The captain in his thirties knocked hard on the thin sixteen or seventeen-year-old The head of the young militiaman loudly lectured.
"It's a messenger, please report to the general quickly!"
"Shall we open the city gate?"
"Don't open it and drop a basket. Have him put the envelope in person or put it there. "
¡¡
Dozens of soldiers at the city gate were discussing in confusion.
Gefirli rode forward quickly on horseback. He had to slow down when he rode 200 meters outside the Ramis city wall. He was surprised to see the densely packed soldiers on the city wall raising their bows and arrows and the crossbows aimed at him. , raised the white flag high, ran fifty meters away from the east gate of Ramis, took a deep breath, and said respectfully: "I am the cavalry guard of General Yiliuyun, the commander of Yilantes. This is the name given to me by our head of state. This is an envelope from His Excellency Count LaMille, I hope you can help pass it to your count."
"Yeah?"
"Put the envelope in the basket and get out of here, or I'll shoot you in the ass if you're late."
On the city wall, a soldier quickly pointed to the large bamboo basket under the city gate and shouted loudly to Gefirli.
"you!"
Gefirli was furious and instantly became angry.
The gangster city guard spit out an orange peel under the city wall, drew his long sword, pointed it at Gefirli and shouted: "Aren't you dissatisfied? If you let it go, let it go quickly. If it's ten seconds later, I will put it away." , there¡¯s nothing you can do if you want to deliver the envelope.¡±
Gefirli held back his anger and closed his eyes tightly, quickly ran over, put down the envelope, and ran towards the place where the war horse was.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Three long arrows suddenly appeared within two or three meters of the war horse. The surprised war horse immediately screamed and ran back in fear. Gefirli was shocked for a moment, and the war horse had already ran more than ten meters away. Suddenly Gefirli was no longer there and quickly chased after the war horse.
"Ha ha!"
"Killing me!"
"What a fool!"
¡¡
Hundreds of thousands of Ramis militiamen on the city wall laughed happily when they saw this. On the city tower, the cavalry general Colelis asked the Palaris city defense general next to him: "Why didn't you stop that scumbag soldier just now? We are like this Isn't it very bad to treat the messenger? If the earl knew, he would definitely criticize us for not being noble."
"Aristocratic demeanor. Haha!"
Palaris smiled coldly, looked at Colelis and others and said: "The Elantes are coming in force, occupying our territory, plundering our wealth, and have sworn enemies with our nobles to the south. The reason why they just signaled the city gate officer to embarrass the messenger is In order to kill their prestige, let the soldiers on our city walls know that the Elantes are just ordinary humans, and our troops can easily defeat them. Weaken their prestige. Build up our morale."
"That's it!"
Coleris suddenly realized.
Three kilometers away, I watched Gefirli riding back in embarrassment with the help of soldiers from the front. Lana, Vera, Mayoden and others all looked livid and looked at the opposite city wall angrily.
Lin Fenghan looked at Gefeili with a calm face and asked softly: "What happened just now?"
"General. This is so irritating." Gefirli patted his chest angrily and said, "I politely asked them to send the invitation envelope, but the scumbag officer who was waiting at the city gate looked disdainful and told me to put down the envelope and get out of here. , I suppressed my anger for the mission and put the envelope in the basket. Just as I turned around a few steps, they shot my horse with bows and arrows, causing me to run back in embarrassment."
Lin Fenghan turned around ruthlessly and looked at the general's guards. He said in a cold voice: "Inform me, when the east gate wall is breached later, all the soldiers guarding the city at the east gate will be severely interrogated, and those who are found to be shooting arrows will be hanged on the city wall."
"yes!"
" Attacking the messenger horse without permission is disrespectful to our army and should be killed!"
"Um!"
Lana and the others all nodded with unkind expressions.
Lin Fenghan waved his hand and said solemnly: "Please inform us that the entire army will start arranging their formations now. In half an hour, we will launch an attack."
"yes!"
¡¡
After hearing the news, the Elantes army immediately became excited. Under the power of anger, the troops gathered and lined up super quickly. Even the newly joined Elantes logistics troops and militia soldiers were furious and accelerated the speed of material transportation.
On the Eastern City Tower, Count Ramelle, who received the news of the attack, was shocked and led Semerina and others up the city wall. Semelina took the envelope from the officer on behalf of Count La Mille, and whispered softly: "Dear Count La Mille, as long as you and the army in your city lay down their weapons and accept reorganization. Elantra?The government can keep your ten kilometers of private farmland, the inner city castle of the main city of Ramis, and half of the supplies in the warehouse. And the Elantes government will invite you to continue to be a government official in this area and assist the government in leading the local area. If you are not willing, then I will lead the Elantes troops to launch an attack at three o'clock in the afternoon. By then, all lives will be in ruins, and you will be responsible for the consequences - Yiliu Yun. "
"What kind of letter is this?"
"A declaration of war?"
"The letter of persuasion to surrender is also a bit funny!" Semerina shook her head gently and said with a smile: "The conditions for a person of your status like Count Yi Liuyun to surrender to you are simply ridiculous!"
"yes!"
Count La Mille angrily took the envelope, rubbed it hard and threw it to the ground. He said loudly: "Shi Ke cannot be killed. He actually offered such poor conditions for my surrender. He simply looks down on me. It is really unforgivable. Wait a moment." Once Illantes' infantry enters 1000 meters, I will activate the ballistae and ballistae at 900 meters to shoot them. There are too many ammunition and spears stored in the city, and I don't care about the supplies. You must teach them a lesson later. .¡±
"yes!"
"yes!"
¡¡
The surrounding generals and officers shouted.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The clattering battle flag fluttered in the sea breeze. A half-kilometer thick flag with a thickness of 7 kilometers from the north to the south of Ramis city was pushed by a huge army of more than 30,000 people pushing catapults, ballistae, and bronze cannons. Move forward slowly.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
¡¡
Nearly a hundred rays of cold light appeared from the Ramis city wall and quickly flew into the Elante army that was nearly 1,000 meters away from the Ramis city wall.
"Wow!"
"Oh my God!"
"You can shoot from such a distance."
"Dad was scared to death!"
¡¡
Hundreds of spears flew from the 7-meter-high city wall into the sandy forest 800 meters and 900 meters ahead. Occasionally, more than ten spears flew out more than 1,000 meters and flew into the formation of the Elantes army. Most of them were inserted into the sand. , three or four were blocked and knocked away. Two spears actually wounded three Elantes artillerymen who were unable to evade in time, and the huge army suddenly stopped involuntarily.
Lin Fenghan, Lana and others who were on the front line looked at the opposite city wall in shock. After a while, Lin Fenghan raised his hand and said: "Stop the entire army and deploy artillery positions on the spot. The rest of the personnel will cover it and launch the attack in ten minutes."
"The whole army stops and the artillery is in position. Fire the artillery in ten minutes!"
"The whole army stops, the artillery is in position, and the artillery will be fired in ten minutes!"
"The whole army stops, the artillery is in position, and the artillery will be fired in ten minutes!"
¡¡
Many Elantes officers shouted.
Looking at the huge army of Elantes gradually stopping in the distance, Ramiler held on to the tower with a weak hand. He said in shock: "I really didn't expect this guy Yi Liuyun to lead so many troops here. Look at the dozen or so iron guys in front of them to see if they are the rumored bronze cannons."
"It seems so!"
The guard cavalry said with some guilt: "There seems to be a row of hundreds of trebuchets and trebuchets around."
Count Ramiller said with dim eyes: "It seems that the outer walls of our city of Ramis are going to suffer this time. General Palaris, quickly prepare our trebuchets and catapults once they enter the shooting range." Let's attack with all our strength. The archers cannot relax, wait for the Elantes army to enter within 300 meters and start shooting without worrying about the consumption of arrows. We must grind the outer city wall for two days at all costs to let them know how powerful we are. "
"yes!"
Palaris nodded seriously and said firmly: "Don't worry, Lord Count! No matter how powerful their bronze cannons are this time, they can smash our small city wall. We will send people to rebuild it with rocks and use soldiers to lead it." The formation is blocked to ensure that they are not allowed to enter the city wall. Furthermore, our ancestors spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and the outer moat guided from the lakes and small rivers of the Ramis River branch in the north is not a decoration. If they want to block the moat, we can also be condescending. Teach them a lesson with bows and arrows.¡±
"Um!"
Count La Mille perked up after hearing this and smiled slightly: "As long as our outer city wall can withstand two or three days, and the second layer of inner city wall can withstand two or three days, then our reinforcements wandering 100 kilometers away can be immediately Come, when new forces like them join the battlefield, then the balance of victory will tip to our side."Sorry for this rescue. The short-sighted Duke Brant forcefully arranged his army hundreds of kilometers away to remain secretive, and also wanted to seize most of the credit for the victory of the war. This is really infuriating. But for the safety of the main city of Ramis, and for the integrity of the land that my family has inherited from generation to generation. I can only agree to his conditions. "
¡¡
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
¡¡
Suddenly, loud noises rang out from the central to the southern areas. The five-meter-long bronze cannon mounted on a wooden frame made bursts of sound, and crimson fireballs mixed with bursts of black smoke flew across the sky and smashed into the upper and lower walls of Ramis city and into the moat of Ramis. .
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Boom!
Boom!
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
¡¡
Twelve of the fourteen bronze cannons hit the thick wall of the outer city of Ramis. Three hundred kilograms of miscellaneous ore shattered the outer masonry of the wall of the outer city of Ramis with ferocious force. Under the sound of la la la, more than ten cracks of seven to eight meters appeared from the city wall. Three or four meters of the five-meter-thick outer city wall were turned into rubble and scattered after being hit by the giant cannon.
¡°The trajectories of two of the cannons were particularly low. They directly scraped the ground and entered one meter from the base of the city wall, and the ore penetrated deep into it. Suddenly, large and small cracks appeared on the surface and exterior of a fifty-meter section of the city wall in the southeast corner, and the foundation of the entire city wall had been shaken.
"ah!"
"Help!"
"It hurts me to death!"
"Hurry up and save me!"
"I fell into the river!"
"I was hit by gravel on my heel!"
¡¡
On July 15th, at 2:42 pm, just a moment after the battle started, a salvo of artillery killed more than thirty soldiers. More than three hundred soldiers were injured by shock and splash. For a moment, the Ramis city defense troops who had been indifferently crawling under the female wall of the outer city and watching the dense formation in front couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. They retreated to the edge of the city wall in shock and looked around in horror at the damage caused by the cannons.
This was the first time for many soldiers in Lamis City to see the power of bronze cannons. Many illiterate and poorly informed Lamis militiamen ran around in fear and shouted: "Everyone, run! The God of Thunder is angry."
"Thor is angry and our city walls are under attack."
"I just heard the voice of the God of Thunder."
"I also saw thunder and lightning seeming to appear from the east. In an instant, our city wall suffered an earthquake. It was really terrible."
¡¡
Many ignorant militiamen spread the praises one after another and wanted to run down the city wall in fear.
"What are you all panicking about? You are a bunch of trash!"
"Everyone, please take your place."
Knights with stern expressions walked out of the city wall watchtowers one after another and shouted to the frightened soldiers and militiamen: "You are all panicking! That is the new weapon of the Elantra Navy bronze cannon according to the intelligence. Its range is two to three kilometers and it can fire several rounds." A hundred kilograms of stone is a very powerful weapon that attacks from afar. These are all created by humans, so you don¡¯t need to be nervous or fearful.¡±
"Since there is no need to panic or be afraid, why are you looking pale, trembling body, and weak in speech, Sir Knight?" A militiaman in his forties who was forcibly recruited asked the knight in confusion.
"Asshole, please stop meddling and go back quickly. If you leave your post, you will be punished as deserters." The young knight who was named looked at the middle-aged man angrily and waved loudly to the surrounding militiamen.
