Warlock Royal Family

() For General Ferrucci, the situation is still very unclear, but there are already some clues.

Judging from the few flags that can be seen clearly, the attackers should be Austrians.

Only Ladislaus-Habsburg carried the Cyric cross and the Habsburg double-headed eagle on their banner.

Although the forces represented by these two symbols have not officially declared war publicly, in fact, people who stand on two boats are no longer allowed to exist.

The number of enemies is still unknown, but it should not be many.

So far, only the north gate has been attacked by the enemy, and the rest of the city wall is quiet.

And even the enemy's offensive at the North Gate was not very effective.

Although the enemy's offensive was unexpected, it was obvious that in order to pursue the suddenness of the attack, the opponent was also facing a situation of disorganization and insufficient intelligence.

After observing on the tower for a few minutes, General Ferrucci gradually felt relieved. The enemy obviously pinned their hopes on a surprise attack to capture the city gate, and his own side raised the alert in time to completely defeat their wishful thinking.

Although the funds for cleaning the moat were scraped too much, and the silt accumulated in several places was only knee-deep in water, General Ferrucci knew this problem, and he knew the weakness of the city long ago during the city tour.

However, traditionally, the forces that control the cleaning of the moat are important allies of the Medici family. General Ferrucci discussed with the leaders of the family many times to solve the chokepoints on the moat one by one, but this process was too slow. Like all homeowners, the owner entrusted the project to his son, and the son contracted the project to his mistress' younger brother. Even if the engineering team was found to be cutting corners, they would not be punished. Their correction speed was naturally astonishingly slow.

The head of the family believed that General Ferrucci was looking for trouble for their family, and he was determined not to interfere directly. He wanted to show his status in the city through this slow progress.

Today, these dirty soils finally bear fruit, and the Austrians seized the weak point.

So much so that the Austrian army crossed the river directly from the silted place after spreading some branches, but the maintenance cost of the steel gate was finally used under the personal attention of General Ferrucci.

Moreover, the gatekeeper of one's own side received the police report in time, carried out inspections and raised his guard, although he was a new figure who participated in the heavy damage to the French army in Bikka and Pavia.Facing the solid steel gates of the city of Florence, they could only do nothing.

Now they can only attack the city with the ridiculous ladders made in a hurry. General Ferrucci saw that most of the ladders that were rushed out could not be transported to the city and fell apart. Most of the ladders that were barely built were not long enough or were broken fall apart completely,

Even if the opponent is the Austrian army, which is known as the elite, it is impossible to show its strength in this situation. At the same time, more and more militiamen are rushing to the city wall.

A few of the bravest mages also appeared on the city wall. Although they were all young low-level mages, those middle and high-level mages must have gone to the governor's mansion one by one.But even for young people, their first and second level arcane skills are powerful enough for soldiers climbing walls.

There is no sign of distress on the city wall, and General Ferrucci has controlled a reserve team of more than 300 people. This reserve team has no militia, and is composed of the consul guard and [-] city defense troops. This is extremely powerful. reserve team.

In this situation, driving the soldiers to attack the city will not have any results at all.Isn't this a waste of soldiers' lives?

What is the use of such an attack?

From time to time, there are messengers on the east and west walls to confirm that everything is safe. The journey to the south is a bit farther, but the latest report of safety is also normal.

What is the enemy general doing?

Is it a feint attack? General Ferrucci thought of this question, and he sent orderlers to confirm the situation at other city gates again.

'Probably not, young people think they are invincible after winning a few battles. 'General Ferrucci doesn't think that the opponent can have too many tricks after being detected in advance in the night attack.

General Ferrucci looked at the soldiers who fell into the moat after being repulsed and felt angry at the enemy commander. Even though he was an enemy, he couldn't treat life so indifferently.

He secretly decided to organize manpower to rescue the wounded and salvage the dead as soon as possible after the enemy retreated at dawn.

Such a knight spirit, General Ferrucci, is worthy of being a noble figure who is widely respected in the city of Florence.It's just that magnanimity has never belonged to the successful.

Only winners are entitled to magnanimity.

While the situation in the north is calm, danger is emerging in the south.

A bloody soldier passed through the city and finally sent back unsafe information, "My lord, my lord, there are enemies in the city, they attacked the south gate, and they still know the password."

.

The make-up sneak attack made all the people of the Austrian special service team extremely nervous, and the city gate officer asked a question about weapons, which touched their nerves that were already nervous to the limit.

Boss Silica and his subordinates attacked almost at the same time.Inserting their respective short weapons into the bodies of the Florentine officers and soldiers around them,

In fact, the Republic of Florence is an extremely wealthy commercial city-state, and its militia has very limited combat capabilities. Soldiers from wealthy citizen families are naturally undisciplined.

It is natural for the militia to be in chaos when they are mobilized in an emergency. If they have all the weapons, there will be ghosts. It is normal to be unarmed.

If Boss Silica's subordinates had neat military appearances and uniform weapons, they might have been spotted long ago.

The city gate officer just confirmed whether these "reinforcements" did not have the most practical long weapons in war.Then I just want to distribute them to them. Although the arsenal in the gatehouse is also neglected, there are still hundreds of spears.

It's just that Sirica doesn't need a spear. In an environment where the enemy and the enemy are mixed together, a dagger is much more useful than a spear.

After cutting off the city gate officer's neck.Silica boss ignored the exclamation and screams, and rushed directly towards the tower along the stairs.

The cables of the drawbridge had been cut and could no longer be pulled up. The only thing that could prevent the Austrian army from entering the city was the steel gate.

The winch on the tower controls the steel gate. Once the noose is cut, the gate weighing tens of thousands of catties will fall down.

Once the gate is down, there's nothing for Ana or Old Tanshull's siege golem.

Although the number was at a disadvantage, the Austrians who suddenly attacked succeeded in suppressing the surrounding Florentine soldiers. Sirica's impact was not disturbed in any way, and he jumped up and walked over the last two steps.

To the city wall.Boss Sirika didn't see the situation on the city wall at the first time. A long-prepared magic missile was approaching him. In addition to the first magic missile, there were also several bows and arrows flying towards him, which were also shot very carefully. allow.

The young mage guarding the capstan was as timid as the others, but he was still doing his duty.

After he fired the magic missile, he had to push the mechanism to break the chain.

He and the arrow-shooting soldiers are the ones with the most sense of mission and responsibility. General Ferrucci carefully arranged these people who could fulfill their duties to important positions.For example, the door machine winch responsible for guarding each city gate.

It's just that doing your duty with dedication sometimes doesn't necessarily lead to good results.

The lapis lazuli pin on Boss Silica's body is also a spoil from the Battle of Pavia. Although it can only activate the "shield technique" once a day, it doesn't need lion materials, so it can be regarded as a great treasure.

The transparent invisible shield inspired by it blocked the magic missile and the few bows and arrows, and Sirica's last leap was not blocked at all, and rolled in mid-air.Through the crowd guarding the winch.

Taking advantage of his falling momentum, he smashed the wooden mechanism to pieces with his legendary arm.

Several soldiers turned around and abandoned their bows as quickly as possible, and attacked him with long daggers or short swords.

Boss Silica's hands were flying, and the weapon and the strange arm in his hand killed two soldiers in a few rounds. Florence's high-quality armor also had limited effect on the legendary arm.

"Master, hurry up and use other magic to deal with him." A soldier urged, although they also knew that the young man didn't have any strong magic.But there's sure to be a spell or two that could help.

It's just that the waiting magic support still didn't arrive until Boss Silica killed another soldier.

The team leader who was forced into danger by Silica scolded: "You coward, people who are afraid of death die faster at this time."

"He's not a coward." Boss Silica continued to attack while speaking.

The team leader knew something was wrong when he heard the words, so he took the risk to look back, and saw that the young mage was already lying on the ground, with a bloody hole opened in the back of his head by a dagger.

It turned out that the boss of Silica had already killed him when he flew past.

At this time, Kailar also followed.The resistance on the tower was quickly cleared, and then more and more Austrians boarded the tower.

The raiders were not only Austrians, but also a few people from the Austrian embassy in Florence, and a mage hired by the ambassador.

The officials in charge of surveillance in Florence should have discovered the anomaly when the boss of Silica was in secret contact with the ambassador. Unfortunately, this unsuspecting bureaucrat did not see the anomaly in the enlarged procurement activities of the Austrian embassy at all.

Of course, the situation is very optimistic without mentioning it. Even though it was a surprise attack, two secret service members died in the melee just now.

Counting the mages, there are no more than twenty people on the tower.At the same time, they had to deal with the Florentines attacking from under the stairs and from other sections of the city wall.

The enemy under the stairs is not very threatening, but the troops rushing from the two wings are very troublesome.

Although the spears have been grabbed, the number of people is too small. Fortunately, Kailar just took a few bottles of wine. The city defense officer likes Russian spirits.

Molotov cocktails made of these spirits turned into a wall of fire on the city wall.Blocking one side of the city wall greatly relieved the pressure on the Austrians.

Boss Silica defended the stairs with the hired mage.

Although his strongest magic is also Magic Missile, Boss Silica can block a large number of enemies in this terrain with his help.

Although there are many Florentines, they have been helpless for a long time.

It's just that when General Ferrucci arrived and personally led the army to rush up the stairs, the combination of the two of them couldn't stop it.

General Ferrucci also has a shield technique that can nullify the mage's magic missile. He tried his best to let Boss Silica hammer him and finally rushed to the city wall.

Losing the stairway, the Austrians were about to lose their hold. (To be continued. You are welcome to come to the starting point to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets.
