No accident…

The sailors who lost the captain quickly chose the latter between desperate fight and surrender. They didn’t want to try that weird long sword by themselves. What are the consequences on the body.

Just when Zhang Cheng was a little bit unable to control the strong killing intent that surged from the bottom of his heart, Blanco also completed the occupation of another ship, leading more than two dozen people to jump over. Wiping the blood stains on his face, he said with a serious expression: “Sir, I think our hunting of the enemy fleet must stop.”

“en? What’s the matter?” Zhang Cheng shook hurriedly. Hold your head and drive those terrifying sounds and thoughts out of your mind.

“Here, look.” The old mercenary pointed to the blazing battlefield not far away. “Stannis built a pontoon bridge using the wreckage of the burned ship. He has led the most elite Knight to attack the city gate. If we don’t return to help quickly, King’s Landing will fall shortly afterwards.”

Following the direction of his finger, Zhang Cheng immediately found that thousands of soldiers had already boarded the city wall, fighting with the “golden robe” of the city defense army.

I don’t know how to do it. The golden robe, which relies on the advantage of the terrain, has been retreating steadily. In the blink of an eye, he lost the blockbuster city wall, which was compressed in one independent gatehouse after another. To describe it in terms of being divided and encircled.

Maybe it won’t be completely wiped out for a while, but the situation is obviously extremely unfavorable for the defense.

“Damn it! Didn’t the intelligence say that Stannis had only 20,000 people in the vanguard?” Zhang Cheng subconsciously frowned.

Although it is difficult to accurately count the number of soldiers on both sides during the melee, the offensive is clearly far more than 20,000, plus the densely packed reserve team behind, let alone 20,000 There are more than thirty or forty thousand people.

Be aware that the topography of Junlin City is very special, with the black liquid river on the south and the black liquid bay on the east. Stannis led the army from the Fortress of Wind, and his location must be on the south of Junlin City. If you want to attack the city, you must rely on the navy to transport the soldiers continuously.

But the little devil saw through his plan, made full preparations in advance, and hit the fleet with wildfire, which not only killed a large number of soldiers on board, but also made transportation efficiency low. It is impossible to transport a large number of soldiers to the other shore at once.

Similarly, Stannis responded very quickly. When the fleet was hit by a devastating blow, he immediately ordered people to piece together the wreckage of the ship to build a simple floating bridge.

The follow-up troops continuously used this pontoon to flock directly to the weakly guarded city wall. In less than one or two hours, they occupied a large peripheral city wall.

“Sir. Please make a decision now.” Blanco hinted in a low voice.

“Decision? Don’t you think Lannister lost the battle?” Zhang Cheng took off his helmet and faint smile asked rhetorically.

“Isn’t it? I really don’t see this level, there is no way for Your Excellency Tyrion to turn the situation around. Maybe it is a good choice to give up the periphery of the city and actively retreat to the Red Fort.” Old The mercenary gave an evaluation based on the combat experience he had participated in in the past.

Zhang Cheng shook the head with a smile: “Of course not. Don’t forget, Tyrion is just a pawn set by his father Tywin Lannister in the south. Think carefully, Stein How long has Nice arrived in King’s Landing? Have you heard of his marching route?”

Blanco is obviously not a fool, and quickly realized the implicit meaning in the words, probed in an uncertain tone: “You mean… Duke Taiwen is leading the Lannister family’s army to ambush in the vicinity, waiting for the best time to pay tribute?!”

Zhang Cheng did not directly answer the other party’s question, Instead, he suddenly sighed: “Do you know? In my opinion, there are two heroes in this world. One is to inspire people in a desperate situation to never give up hope, but they are usually short-lived and often return I will die under the sword of the enemy without waiting for the end of the suffering. I admire this kind of hero, but I will never follow suit. As for the second hero, he will always appear at the most urgent moment and defeat the enemy by crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood. , And then greet people’s cheers and praises, and get the most benefit by the way. Tell me, which one do you think Duke Taiwen is?”

“I think he should be the latter.” Blanco recalled a little about Tywin Lannister’s deeds and immediately came to his own conclusion.

“Yes! Since you understand what he is, what are you worried about? Put the prisoners in the cabin and lock them up, tell everyone to prepare for battle, let us help Tywin Lannis Let’s start the prelude to this heroic sacred scripture…” With that, Zhang Cheng’s mouth was slightly tilted, and he began to take off the plasma-stained armor one by one, and put on a flint staff that he hadn’t used for a long time.

No need to ask, he is planning to completely let go of his hands and feet and show the mages’ extremely powerful destructive power in full view.

Under the command of the old mercenaries, the five entangled battleships quickly separated, two of which were pierced by the horns and were left in place to hold captives who surrendered. The other three were simply repaired, re-mounted the Stannis flag, moved towards the battlefield and rushed away.

“Look! Our ship!” a sharp-eyed Knight shouted at his companion.

But before others could react, there was a buzzing sound in the air, followed by a dense rain of arrows dropping from the sky, slapped on the armor and shield, Some directly penetrate the armor and plunge into the fragile flesh and blood.

“Ah!!!”

“Not good! It’s an enemy ship!”

“Defensive Array type! Defensive Array type!”

Along with the noisy curses and shouts, the army belonging to Stannis on the shore began to quickly change directions and gathered into a semi-arc-shaped tight infantry phalanx.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Cheng showed a sinister smile on his face, and turned his head to instructed the sailor who was in charge of operating the catapult: “What are you waiting for, let’s start.”

“hehe ! As you wish, my lord.” The sailor grinned and loosened the tension lever.

In an instant!

A dozen sealed cans of wildfire were thrown out and hit the shield wall with a bang, and the dark green liquid was scattered everywhere.

Just before the soldiers figured out what was going on, a blazing flame crossed the sky, followed closely from behind and fell down.

Next second…

Boom!

The violent explosion and flame engulfed hundreds of soldiers on the spot!

The sturdy armors and shields they are proud of, instead of providing any protection at this moment, they turned into deadly molten iron under the burning of flames.

Suddenly, all kinds of screams and wailing echoed over the battlefield, so that the Stannis soldiers who had been trapped on the top of the city couldn’t help but stop, looking at the tragic death of their companions with fear. Looks like.
