Chapter 187: City Breakdown

Roger turned his eyes to the Elans gathering area, where the crowds of people never stopped after he left.

Roger has deployed his troops around the Elans area.

He knew that sometimes, what a person does not want to happen will not happen because of his reluctance.

Roger has made plans for the worst.

What he was most worried about was that the enemy outside the city carried several ladders at this time and used the most technical method to cover the city.

Then Roger really doesn't know what to do.

He could not have done that in the event of unrest in the city, he also led a group of recruits to resist the enemy's attack on the city wall.

Fortunately, Roger was the enemy outside the city seemed to rely too much on the catapult and they did not do anything else.

Gradually, the sound in the Elans gathering area became less and less.

Roger saw Mufti coming out with hundreds of people.

These men wore traditional Arabic robes, without any defense, and had only a solid stick in their hands.

Mufti said in a hurry: "These people are eager to fight, they want to avenge the Imam, they are all brave people, they..."

"They will die!" Roger interrupted Mufti without hesitation.

"They are not afraid of death."

"They could not have died."

“This is their choice.”

Roger looked at Mufti lightly and said, "You go."

Mufti left, leaving behind a group of stick soldiers who had no formation at all and were standing scattered.

A group of dead men who have not been trained but are full of fearless bravery and religious fanaticism.

A loud "crash" sound, accompanied by the cheers of the enemy outside the city, Toledo's walls opened up a big hole.

President Shitou came to report with shame: "Sir, I really can't stand it anymore."

Roger didn't blame President Shitou, he knew that this man had done his best.

Roger climbed to the bell tower to observe.

He saw the enemy's army moving towards the gap, and they did not bring ladders.

Four catapults concentrated their firepower and attacked the gap in an attempt to completely destroy this section of the city wall.

Roger ordered: "The crossbowman goes to the wall and concentrates on attacking the enemy troops near the gap!

"The stonemason, the veterans are heavily equipped with soldiers. On the left and right sides of the gap, the round shield swordsman is facing the gap, and three teams of pocket formations are ready to double-team the enemy troops passing through the gap!

"The six teams of urban militia are also divided into three sides, listed behind stonemasons, veterans, and round shields, and are always supplemented with the front team.

"Rubio, I authorize you to command in front of the battlefield.

"Everyone, you should strive for the first place in this battle. Those who dare to retreat without authorization will be killed!"

Roger shouted: "Justice will win!"

So each team shouted the slogan of "Justice will win" and rushed to the designated location to line up.

There were Arab stick soldiers hustling downstairs: "We want to fight too!"

Roger would not send these untrained people to the field at this time, they would only mess up their own queues.

Roger comforted them and said, "Everyone is at ease, I will arrange for you to fight at the most critical moment."

The yelling soldiers were very satisfied with Roger's arrangement and felt that they were valued, and they boasted:

"Haha, we are the most powerful ones."

"When is the most important time? I can't wait for my stick."

......

The enemy troops outside the city had entered the range of crossbowmen on the city wall.

So under the command of the veteran, waves of crossbow arrows were sprinkled out like pouring water.

The enemy's catapult finally completed the mission.

As if the last straw was added, the broken wall collapsed in the bang, raising the dust and mist in the sky.

Roger on the bell tower saw that the enemy's spearmen rushed in without waiting for the dust to dissipate.

The dust and mist became their cover, and the crossbowmen on the city wall could not aim accurately.

Roger heard Rubio in front of the formation ordering the crossbowmen to shoot freely.

Roger was very glad that he arranged the command in front of the battlefield. The battle situation changed rapidly. If he didn't know how to adapt to the situation, he would definitely lose the opportunity.

He thought that he would definitely not be able to learn the tactics of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, which were able to plan and win a thousand miles away, so he should not learn it.

The archers on the opposite side also stepped forward. They scattered their formations and kept firing arrows at the crossbowmen on the city wall.

Roger saw these archers, although they were poorly equipped, they had solid skills. They obviously had long-term training and had experienced battle formations.

These archers shoot very quickly, and almost one arrow from the crossbowmen can shoot 5 arrows.

If the crossbowmen on the city wall were caught in arrows and lost their combat effectiveness, they would immediately rescue people and lift them down.

Those bachelors who studied medicine either directed the barbers or did it themselves and started treatment under the city wall.

Roger could not see the specific situation of their treatment, and he did not see any soldiers returning to the city wall to fight after being treated.

Fortunately, there were not many crossbowmen who were injured and killed, and the city walls played a good protective effect.

A shocking cry suddenly erupted from the dust in the gap.

Roger widened his eyes, but he couldn't see through the dust.

He could only hear the sound of fighting and the sound of weapons, and it seemed that hundreds of strings of "shocking thunders" were blown up at the same time.

Father Dominic beside Roger leaned over nervously to look, half of his body stretched out from the railing.

Roger pulled the priest back and he comforted the priest not to be nervous, but in fact he was also very nervous.

There was a voice in Roger's heart yelling:

When is it? You are still standing here to watch the show, why don’t you send someone to help quickly? If it’s too late, the enemy will come in!

Another voice in his mind said:

Calm down, even if a group of pigs is killed for a long time, your soldiers will not be defeated so easily.

Roger suppressed the panic in his heart, and he silently repeatedly warned himself:

Believe in them, believe in them, believe in them.

Roger calmed down. Now he felt that the idea of ​​sending someone to help was really stupid. Once these people downstairs were sent out, they would only break up their own formation and cause greater chaos.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and Roger finally saw the situation clearly.

The situation is very good.

The enemy spearmen who rushed into the gap were crowded like sardines, even the spears were uneven.

On my side, the three teams of soldiers were preparing before a picnic. The ones with swords were cutting vegetables, and the ones with spears were ripping meat skewers.

The bodies in front of them were already built up, and Roger seemed to be able to hear the "swinging" sound of their feet stepping in the blood.

After the crossbowmen on the city wall shot at the dense sardines, the alive enemy collapsed. They cried and shouted, threw down their spears and ran towards the gap.

But they couldn't escape, and the spearmen outside were still rushing towards the gap.

The deserter was blocked in the gap and could not advance or retreat.
Chapter completed!
