Chapter 571 This is Arik's Assault

A large number of enemies are slowly approaching the mountain fort. Are they sending them to death?

Watyara gritted his teeth, at least protected by a wooden wall, and he and his Tavastiya warriors still felt safe.

How does the attacking Russian army want to attack?

"Am I dazzled? Did they tame the bear? Let a group of bears carry the wood forward?"

Someone yelled: "Boss, that's not a bear! It's an enemy in bear skin."

"Damn it! They want to smash our door with wood?!"

Vatyara was anxious, because the gate of the fort was not strong.

He immediately greeted his brothers, "Hurry up and find the debris piled at the gate! Others, shoot me arrows to stop those bears!"

The best iron arrows swish towards the warrior in bear skin.

The voice was heard by the alert Ross, and they had already had a countermeasure.

Arik hasn't been arrogant enough to fight the arrows head-on. The iron ring and thick leather can basically block the arrows. He is afraid of arrows in the face and neck with weak defense.

The attacking Russ all use wooden shields in front of them, and the soldiers carrying huge wooden shields have become "tanks."

The sequel to landing with a huge shield was centered on the bearskin warrior, and more and more arrows were shot on the shield.

The full preparation of the Ross people almost completely offset the arrow advantage of the Tavastia people!

Originally thinking that the enemy could be repelled with iron arrows, the effect was so poor that Vatyara, who had limited self-confidence, began to despair.

Even if they are desperate, they are still fighting against the beast.

A large number of arrows fired desperately, after all, it was unable to stop the continuous attack of the Ross.

The battle became extremely anxious, and Vatyara felt that the situation had become extremely bad.

He continued to roar in the chaos, "All the arrows are saved! We are also finished when the arrows are used up!"

Unfortunately, the warrior with the bow is still shooting.

On the other hand, the Ross people finally advanced to the distance where the crossbow could shoot accurately.

Holding a light crossbowman hiding behind a large wooden shield to start free shooting, this is really an optimal solution, just as the Genoese crossbowman usually does.

The big wooden shield stood on the ground to become a perfect barrier. The soldier who had finished shooting an arrow left the step to accumulate energy and placed an arrow to continue shooting.

In a short time, ten shooting positions appeared on the Ross side. The wooden shield is densely packed with Tavastia's arrows, and the rain of arrows on the ground is like a wild dog's tail grass. The arrows are really at your fingertips.

The battle has hit the present, the most critical moment has not yet arrived.

Hidden behind the shield, Arik laughed at the bearskin warrior, "God knows that they have a pair of arrows. They may be able to shoot all the arrows, and the arrows are all ours. You don't have to worry about hitting them."

The slightly exhausted bearskin warriors carried the wood forward together. Encouraged by these words, everyone forgot their exhaustion for a while and vowed to break the wooden wall and let history repeat itself.

Compared to the wars of many years ago, there will be no troublesome ice and snow in this mountain fort.

The crossbowmen began to shoot the enemy with precision as if they were hunting. Although the crossbows here are all modified from short wooden bows, they are still very effective against the basically unarmored Tavastias.

It seems that the Rus can win this way?

A large number of rocks were moved to the wall, although most of them were rocks larger than fists, which fell from a height, even if the Rus was wearing an iron helmet, he would still have a concussion when hit.

The Tavastians braved the arrows of the Rosses to throw stones, and were struck by the rocks, Arik was also shocked.

The Ross man retreated a little while holding a shield to protect his head. No fool had jumped into the trench and tried to climb the wall.

The road became narrow, and the road attacking the gate converged to only about five meters. This is not because the Tavastia people are good at using moats, but in fact, the trenches are also dug out to reinforce the wooden walls.

They don't know how to build a suspension bridge, so there is a way to the gate.

The most anxious battle is here, even if the warrior holding the wooden shield protects the bearskin warrior holding the siege hammer to the door, it feels like he is hitting a stone.

Blocks of wood, stones, and even soil were all piled up at the wooden door by the Tavastias, and the corpses of the brothers who died in the crisis were also thrown in as obstacles.

They can actually escape through the small door, but that would be a loss of honor, and even if they return to their hometown, they will be convicted by the tribe.

The mad Tavastia suddenly became brave, and their eyes were red and resolutely resisted.

More and more warriors were hit by arrows and fell, and a few of the Ross people also suffered arrow wounds. The difference is that the arrow wounds of the Ross people are mostly irrelevant, and the torso and head of the warrior are intact!

The bearskin warriors all found that the gate had basically crashed into sawdust, but the passage just didn't exist.

Many people noticed that the people in the wall were still piling up debris. They all felt very familiar with this scene, and it seemed that the people who guarded the city were doing this.

The trick that Vatyara came up with temporarily can be described as a turtle tactic. He wants to turn himself into a turtle in the urn, hoping that the enemy will enter without breaking the urn~www.mtlnovel.com~Get the red envelope] Follow the public account [Book Friends Base Camp~www.mtlnovel.com ~Draw up to 888 cash red envelopes!

The Tavastiya people still have the last faith, that is, to stick to it at all costs, wait for reinforcements, and then a center will blossom. I'm afraid this is their only chance of winning.

The madman of Rose's Warriors First Banner is not a monster with infinite energy, hitting the door becomes useless, and the warrior in bear skin is panting.

The battle became boring, and Arik, who looked at the city wall through the gap in the shield, had lost the idea of breaking the city.

"Damn it! We can't get the greatest glory. Let's go, brothers, let's retreat and wait for the big army."

The Ross people, who could not stand this boring battle for a long time, wanted to evacuate. For the sake of face, everyone was waiting for Arik's attitude.

Now that the flag captain has spoken, and the man carrying the flag team's flag has retreated, the Ross people have gradually retreated.

Retreating is not running around, Arik shouted, "An orderly evacuation! Try to pick up the arrows from the ground and not leave them to the enemy! We retreated to the woods and stopped.

The Rus are retreating? ! Watyara, whose mentality was almost bursting, was overjoyed, as if God was helping them. The Tavastiyas felt hope, and they began to cheer and curse the Ros.

Isn't Arik mentally retarded? He learned some swear words from the Corvin, and this time he heard it from the Tavastia.

Some people yelled, "Are they insulting us? They look very happy."

"It's an insult." Arik, who returned without success, sat in the woods and rested and said to the interrogator, "They said we were cowards."

"This... we didn't kill them all, I'm not reconciled."

"Brother, we are not cowards, but just take a short break. Look at this mountain castle, they are like fish in Tao Weng. We decide when to kill them." After he said, he spitted again.

"Let's wait! Rurik's army will arrive in the evening, and we will fight again tomorrow."

Alibaba calmed down and checked the results of this unvictorious raid.

A large number of arrows were pulled from the wooden shield, and then tied into a handful of one hundred. After some statistics, everyone just collected nearly 3,000 arrows.

The collection of so many arrows really surprised Arik, but everyone also felt strange, as if tens of thousands of arrows were stored in the mountain fort, so that the enemy had the capital to squander.

In the evening, Rurik's army finally arrived.

The Warriors First Banner Team didn't have to take down the mountain fort as he expected, but the enemy was really guarded, and Lurik had to be cautious of the group of tortoises.

I saw a large number of soldiers of the First Banner light a bonfire and roasted weird things, and Rurik also saw that they seemed to have fished perch from the stream that poured into the Oulu River. They are more tired, but fortunately they still have spirit in their eyes.

Arik had some regrets. He approached his brother and pointed his right hand at the mountain fort: "The enemy has reinforced the fort, and my siege hammer can't break it."

"Can't knock? Their door is too hard?"

"No. Just like in previous battles, new enemies are piling up gates with soil. Here, you must have a way to break the city."

Rurik deliberately took a look at the sunset, but there was no telescope, he couldn't see the details.

The mountain fort changed its appearance, and Rurik remembered that there was no such empty field outside the mountain fort with only wooden piles. Most of the stakes were recently felled, this must be the enemy's move.

Rurik was on the edge of the forest, and he had already figured out some siege tricks, such as building a long ladder.

It takes some time to make a better siege weapon, and it just so happens that Rurik doesn't want to launch a general offensive immediately.

The forest camp became more and more lively, and people began to set up pottery and iron pots to cook their own wheat and jerky.

People who have walked on the rugged road for many days all sat down and rubbed their feet, or lay directly on the soft mat under the pine branches.

Arik handed over a pound of roasted sea bass with a rosy smell to his brother, and then reported the results of the day.

"I underestimated the enemy's sense of resistance. Fortunately, I retreated wisely. Not a single brother died, but more than a dozen people were scratched by arrows on their arms and cheeks, and there was a hapless man hitting the arrow."

"Big Clam hits an arrow?" Rurik thought it was ridiculous when he heard it.

Arik shrugged, "I just arranged for people to taunt them."

"I see, they shoot arrows."

"Yes, I also learned about the maximum range of their arrows. Rest assured that our location is very safe. Even our longbowmen standing here and shooting arrows can threaten the enemy."

Mechasta, who returned to his hometown, resented the transformation of the old mountain fort by the villains of Tavastia, who occupied the magpie's nest, and was even more angry about their destruction of the forest. We must know that the Corvins worship the forest and the endlessly flowing Oulu River. Although they have immigrated to the brand-new Airon (Kemi) River, they still have enthusiasm for their homeland.

Hearing Arik's description, Metzasta directly pulled the old man Rigus to his feet.

"My lord, our last Corvin warriors are here. Since you can shoot the enemy with arrows, I hope to act now."

"Now? You sit down first." Rurik paused for a while, and then said: "We shouldn't waste arrows at night. I'm afraid the arrows will be used by them again. In my opinion, we will keep throwing trebuchets from tomorrow. stone."

"Aid to assist the army to attack?" Arik asked.

"No, the truce tomorrow. First, let us keep everyone up and down, and secondly create long ladders. Tomorrow we will carry out a harassment attack, first surround the fortress, and the rest will be our army torturing them."

It is strange to reduce the use of bows and arrows, and he emphasized: "Brother, I have captured three thousand arrows."

"Then keep it! It just so happens that we don't have many arrows." Rurik was actually quite annoyed that he underestimated the complexity and severity of the road.

Thanks to the large number of pebble beaches along the river, the only advantage of the extremely rugged roads is that they are not muddy. It is spring now, and the melting of frozen soil leads to mud ponds everywhere. Northern and Eastern Europe even lack roads, which means that the Oulu River Basin is in better condition.

Rurik made some deployment, and the army began to move.

The army circled around the entire old gray squirrel hill fort, and the people who huddled inside quickly discovered the strangeness outside the fort.

A large number of bonfires lit up at the edge of the forest, and they were guarded by a circular fire wall.

This is still Rurik's most common tactic, using the cover of the night to create an astonishing illusion of ambushes. The enemy can't judge the reality, they will instinctively intimidate themselves, and their morale will suffer.

The Tavastians stood nervously on the wooden wall. They wanted to go out to pick up some arrows, and even brought leather bags to replenish fresh water. Fear made them afraid to take risks.

Because everyone is surrounded! There has been a faint rumbling in the distance, it seems that thousands of Ross people are talking, afraid it is not discussing tomorrow's general attack.

Suddenly there was a whistling sound in the air, and then Tavastia fell, and then many people screamed.

"What's the matter?" Vatyara was shocked.

"It's a dark arrow!" someone shouted.

"Dark Arrow? Where is the enemy archer? Counterattack me!"

In this case, the attacked people want to find the enemy to shoot arrows back, but their opponents use the oak longbow.

Rurik couldn't hold back Metzasta eager to get revenge, so he allowed him to take thirty Corvin longbowmen and shoot three rounds at the enemy with the captured arrows.

According to the distance information provided by Arik, these three rounds of arrows were basically shot in the mountain fort, although it also caused the casualties of five enemies, it is not a word to say that it caused panic.

Creating panic is also a kind of tactics!

Rurik wasn't afraid that they would fight with the beasts, after all, he didn't want to survive this battle.

Is this cruel? indeed so.

On the marching road, the Russmen saw the ruined cemetery and a large number of miserable corpses found in the burnt old Salmon Lord Hill.

The Tavastia invaders did not allow the Corvins and the Ross fishermen to stay alive. Why should the Ross crusaders be merciful. Unless those deceased entrusted a dream to everyone asking for the lives of those who surrendered in Tavastia.

Therefore, Rurik didn't want any negotiation. The invaders really aroused the gloom in his heart~www.mtlnovel.com~ As the saying goes, "You are ruthless, don't blame me for no righteousness." The entire Russian army has such an attitude. Of course, the ally Balmerk's army wanted to take the spoils, and Bijuni was also watching the Morus army's tactics, wanting to make his people equally powerful, but did not have much desire for killing.

The Tavastiyas who were standing on the head of the city screamed and hid them with a secret arrow, and Vatyara scolded the fierceness of the Ross people in the safe wooden house.

This anger couldn't find a suitable vent, and three surrender leaders of the Kewen tribe were picked out.

Anger was spreading on these three people, and Vatyara was complaining, "It was you three who got us involved in the war. Why didn't you tell us that the Ruths are so powerful? You have ulterior motives and want us to destroy Tavastia."

The three of them were shocked. Bakkan saw that the atmosphere was not right. For fear that he would be chopped up as a sacrifice, he hurriedly crawled to Vatyara's side: "At least let me go out and talk to them. Maybe give them some leather. Will retreat."

"You!" Watyara was furious and stood up and kicked.

But after thinking about it, he still doesn't know what the Ross people want to do, so he can't really kill them all. If you can use some means to coax them away, it's a good idea. Even delaying time is good, so when the eldest brother arrives with the elite of the alliance, the Ross people should be forced to retreat by the army.

The plan has been set, Vatyara slapped his thigh, "Tomorrow you go to probe the reality of the Ruths and tell me their intentions. Also, delay them for me."

Bakkan trembling, he promised, because he had no choice. This is the role of a slave.
