The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 214 The Leader Noticed Zhang Qiang
A knight in leather armor said: "My lord, those are the knights sent by Earl Crags who were suspended from the other side of the city wall yesterday to scout the enemy."

"Oh." Earl Melt said no more.

Continue to watch the battle.

At this time, it was not his turn, the castle lord, to go to the battlefield in person.

The situation has not deteriorated to that point.

He also has barons and viscounts, and even a large number of elite knights, just send them out to fight.

However, he was not at ease in his heart. From receiving the news of the arrival of the enemy army in Tilburg more than two weeks ago, to being besieged by the enemy army, he felt that Tilburg was absolutely not sure that he could hold it with the strength of Tilburg, so he asked Klages The Earl immediately sent out a call for help.

But the old Earl Klages spent more than a week preparing and marching for a week. When he arrived nearby, he didn't go directly to Tilburg to fight the enemy.

The city has been besieged for three or four days. Yesterday, the enemy launched a large-scale attack. First, the catapults destroyed the battlements on the city wall, killing and injuring the defending soldiers. By the way, the two watchtowers in the city were destroyed before ordering the soldiers to attack the city.

The first time he attacked the city, he lost hundreds of soldiers and injured hundreds of soldiers. Three times in a row, he almost disabled all the soldiers defending the city. The merchants and mercenaries accompanying the army were sent to the city wall.

But once he attacked, he found that these people were not enough to resist the enemy's attack.

Once again, the men and women accompanying the camp who were able to fight in the castle, and even the quartermaster were sent to block the enemy army who had captured a section of the city wall.

Now, he had to go to the front line and command in person, but he still didn't send the most elite knights and nobles to the front line. That was his last strength. It was fine for the high-ranking soldiers and soldier generals to be in charge of the battle ahead.

After one year of his operation, Tilburg has grown from a few hundred soldiers to a solid military fortress with 300 elite high-level soldiers, 600 low-level soldiers, 400 ordinary soldiers, and a population of 1000.

In addition, when the enemy army had not yet surrounded Tilburg a week ago, he ordered the lords under his jurisdiction to lead reinforcements, adding 1000 soldiers and 500 accompanying troops to fight.

But there are no more than 3000 people in total, and the real combat power is only more than 1000, of which the elite combat power is no more than 800.

Compared with the enemy with tens of thousands of fighting power in the Vegia army, thousands of elite fighting power, and [-] fighting power in the accompanying army, it is still too weak.

Fortunately, they still have city walls and enough food to cope with the long-term siege of the enemy.

Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to last a day.

Seeing that the baron lord on the other side of the city wall was retreating steadily and was in danger of being knocked down by the enemy, Earl Melt said to the knights beside him: "Send the order to let the men of Earl Rogers, who is resting, attack that city." Section of the city wall."

The knight went down with orders.

Count Melt continued to watch the battle.

Earl Rutgers was chased into his castle by the enemy three days ago. At that time, he was very happy, because their arrival added an elite defensive force to his castle, and at the same time he was a little gloating, because Rogers is the brother of that old guy in Crags, the son of Earl Harlengoth, his son is so embarrassed, thinking of Harlengoth's strength and arrogance, if he knows that his son fled into his castle in embarrassment, ask him Asking for help, he felt relieved.

The Harengos family is enviable and hated in the Kingdom of Swadia, because they have taken too many benefits and are too powerful.

Many newly-rising nobles still have no fiefdoms, and the fiefdoms have been seized by the Harengos family under various pretexts.

In the past, he was the lord of Ripleyt Castle. He became a knight at the age of 21 and became a baron at the age of 30. However, he did not get the territory bestowed by King Harlaus until he was 32, and he did not become a baron at the age of 35. The lord of Ripleyt Castle, to be the lord of a castle, he has actually been considered very successful.

There are also many earls who can only be wealthy earls in name only in their own manors or villages.

There are even many barons and viscounts who can only wander all their lives, relying on being other people's thugs in other people's territories.

Those lords who were exiled from other countries, or took the initiative to seek refuge, if they did not have the ability to bring the dead back to life, capture an enemy lord, or have a reputation high enough that Harlaus did not dare not give the fief, then he would only Can be a lord without a fief.

The lord Viscount Rogerson who came here with Rogers this time is a good example. He can only be in Siwa. The kingdom of Swadia, survive under the wing of that sinister villain.

He didn't have much affection for the three of them.

Siwa took the position by flattering Earl Starmar, and then took the initiative to move closer to Earl Crags, coaxing Earl Harangos to be happy, and asked King Harlaus about the territory of two villages.

In fact, Shiwa's ability, in his opinion, was not even as strong as that of a high-ranking knight under him, but his mind was much stronger than that of an ordinary high-ranking soldier, so cunning.

Even surpassing him, he can make a cruel character like Harlan Goss happy, and he can make people stronger than him, but he is better than him, and he is more popular than him. Viscount Rogerson defends him, and wins him Earl Dama's fancy, this is not what a lord with chivalry like him can do, and he can't get used to this kind of person.

He turned his eyes to the battlefield below the city walls.

That nimble boy had already gathered five pikemen, five sword-shieldmen, five sword-shieldmen, and fifteen crossbowmen around him at this time, and he was directing them to shoot and kill those hedgehogs gathering around the periphery. enemy.

Occasionally, a few enemies were cleverer and ran outside, trying to attack them, but were killed by the infantry he sent in front of them.

At the front feet of his team, there were at least 30 enemy corpses.

Another enemy knight was captured.

Seeing that with his help, the enemies here are no longer able to achieve anything.

He said to another knight beside him: "Go down, let the besieging soldiers rush to reinforce the city wall, and must hold that section of the city wall."

He saw that the enemy's second wave of soldiers had already climbed up the city wall from the outside, continuously attacking his own defenders who were fighting on another section of the city wall.

Some enemies even used the ladders on the inner city wall to climb down, cut off the retreat of the defenders on the city wall, and fought with the reinforcements of Earl Rogers' men.

Zhang Qiang didn't know that Earl Melt was watching them.

He looked proudly at the corpses of the fallen enemies, and he felt a sense of accomplishment, and he could be considered a commander.

With a wave of his hand, the infantry in front pressed forward in a neat line, strangling those enemy troops who were still stubbornly resisting.

An unknown knight ran over, took away most of the friendly troops, climbed up the stone steps under the city wall, and collided with the second wave of enemies attacking along the city wall.

Zhang Qiang's hands were itchy. At this time, there were only a dozen or so stubborn enemies left. If he could kill a few more, he would accumulate more merit points. Being a noble knight is good, but being a meritorious knight is even more important. glory.
