  Chapter 105 One Hundred Five · The Battle of Dites Harbor · Part 1 (Subscription required)

  The northern border of the Bone Forest, the coast of the Claw Sea, the Port of Diets.

  Looking from a high altitude, the city faces the sea on one side. On the land, beyond a line of defense with obvious fire, there is a cloudy sky, and the army enough to drown the city surrounded the port of Diets.

   On the sea-facing end, the sails of the dragon boat with the black octagonal Chaos logo obscured the clouds and blocked the sun. Like a swarm of homing bees, they flocked to the port of the southerners.

Clifford Cole, the hereditary marquis of Diets Harbor, is standing on the high city wall, and behind him are dozens of sea knights, white wolf knights, defense generals of Diets Harbor, the marquis's deputy, and also One of the Knight Commanders of the White Wolf Knights and the Deputy Commander, Ser Kaleima stood behind him.

The Marquis looked around, and as far as the eye could see, the army of Norsca was in full sight. Among them, the boundless Marauder Legion occupied most of the field of vision. The mighty battle cry shook the earth. Don't worry about them, there are more than 20 cannons and mortars on the city wall tower, just need to keep firing shells to stop the looters from advancing.

What really made Clifford Cole feel deeply afraid were those standing behind the Marauder Legion, a dozen Chaos Warrior Legions, the Norsca champion warriors in the northern wasteland, armed with strong shields, sharp axes, and heavy drapes. Armor caused ordinary feather arrows and crossbow arrows to be unable to harm these powerful warriors at all, and in the close quarters of the city, the imperial soldiers except a few great swordsmen, other infantry can not be the enemy of those battle-hardened champion warriors, continuous During the two-day battle of defending the city, the Marquis relied on several knightly companies stationed in Dites Harbor to be able to defend the city.

There are many Norsca soldiers. They cut down wood from the Bone Forest next to the port of Ditus, melted the iron materials with the armor and weapons of the defeated, and turned the corpses of the dead into mucus. Chaos dwarves crafted by demons, siege machines are increasing day by day, and Clifford has no idea how many times he has seen the scene of the giant collision cone being destroyed.

   From any point of view, the scale of victory is heavily skewed towards the barbarians.

Fortunately, the Nords have been fighting against the Nords all year round. The entire Nord Territory has sufficient defenses. The number of Nord troops is small, but with the blessing of high walls and deep trenches, it can barely hold. The two sides are deadlocked. , the empire didn't care, but the Norsca people attacked day and night, making the defenders miserable.

   "du woo~~ woo woo~~~"

   Outside the city walls, the horn of the heavy giant whale sounded.

"My marquis, the barbarians are attacking again." The Marquis's deputy, Ser Kalemar, noticed that the barbarian army was once again dispatched, still hundreds of old Norsca veterans dragging the siege tower , Breaking the city cone, it is no exaggeration to say that the archers and muskets on the city wall can shoot them all in a few rounds of salvos.

   But following the old Norsca warriors, the overwhelming chaotic warrior army has to make people's hearts speak. No matter how brave warriors are, as long as they fall into the sea of ​​black iron and heavy armor, they will die.

"The barbarians can't wait anymore, and they will overwhelm the warriors of Chaos as soon as they come up. Do they like to die so much?!" The marquis's iron glove slammed on the battlement, and he immediately ordered: "Order all the gunners to concentrate their firepower and destroy them. For those siege towers, the archers and crossbowmen fired first, suppressing the old barbarians, ordering all the musket teams in the city to wait for the firing order, and dispatching half of the infantry knights to fully equip the city wall, and let the great swordsmen do the work. Get ready, it won't be long before they will be on stage!!"

"clear!"

The city wall of Dites Harbor is more than ten meters high. It was designed by the engineers of the dwarves in the mountains. Down, layer after layer of blood, making the wall dark.

On the broad walls, thousands of defenders were running back and forth, archers filled their quivers, swordsmen and spearmen put on helmets, took up weapons, nervously prepared for battle, most of the faces Everyone can see exhaustion, and a few are still malnourished. The officers hurriedly ran on the city wall: "Prepare to fight! Prepare to fight! Soldiers of the empire, show your courage! Lord Marquis is watching us from the city wall. !"

Above the towers of the city wall, there was an immediate thunderstorm, and more than a dozen cannons and mortars spewed bullet rain. Within the naked eye, dozens of kilograms of heavy bullets plowed a **** path in the Norsca lineup, and projectiles. The mortar shells that came out drew several arcs in the air. The Norsca army was densely populated, and violent explosions occurred frequently. Hundreds of barbarians were buried in the flames.

   "Fight! Fight!" As the artillery of the city wall towers took a long time to reload, the archers also got ready.

   One after another order was issued, and the large city wall fell into a tense war atmosphere in an instant.

   On a certain section of the city wall on the west side of Dites Harbor, a rickety middle-aged man held a spear half his height and recited: "Bless Uric, bless Uric"

The first time that Diets Harbor was surrounded, the city's armory opened one after another, and the call for war was issued in an instant. More than half of the men were gathered, and each received a set of disrepaired equipment and weapons from the armory. Or spears, or short swords, and after that, they went to the top of the city and fought to defend their homeland.

Several mercenaries who accompanied him a few days ago were also on this wall. At the beginning of the war, the Marquis of Dites Harbor hired all the mercenaries in the whole city, large and small mercenary groups, all needed. Following his orders, he promised to pay three times the employment price after the war.

   But in the face of this unprecedented scale of barbarian invasion, many people know that they are afraid that they will not receive the money.

   "Bless Madam, bless your devout believers from being hurt by the barbarians" The bearded mercenary silently took out the lucky lady pendant hidden in the chain shirt and placed it in front of his forehead to pray before the battle.

  The mercenaries who licked blood from the knife edge believed in Ms. Lucky, thinking that she was very effective. After all, the mercenaries who died unfortunately had no way to express their dissatisfaction.

Among the    mercenaries, the only archer was recruited to fill the bow and arrow company, and the remaining few were barely equipped with one or two pieces of leather or chain armor.

In each wave of siege, the first hand-to-hand battle was on the western section of the city wall. A large number of Norsca warriors poured down from the city head. The people were so crowded that they could not feel their own souls. The garrisoned troops arranged for the mercenaries. In the most dangerous section of the city wall, the meaning is very clear.

   I will pay, you will die, and if you die, I will not have to pay.

Equipped with half-body plate armor and lined with a black priest's robe, Luther Hus stood quietly behind the battlements, with the holy hammer Gael Maraz hanging between his eyebrows: "Sigmar, grant me your power. Let me have the firm will to purify everything, smash heresies, and bring hope to those in despair.

   In the name of the two-tailed comet and the Hammer of Heroes, I will do my best, I swear I will never be timid, I will never back down, I will go to the burning fire without turning back, and I will dispel the shadows of chaos with your divine radiance. "

The chains slanted on the shoulders were tied with a sigma scripture. Luther Huss drew strength from his faith and killed all the enemies that came. The blood of the purifier, the heresy who blasphemed the faith was crushed and killed by him.

The expressions of    all beings in the face of fear were imprinted in the mind of this devout priest one by one, which enabled Luther Huss to maintain enough fury and firm will when facing the Norsca, almost comparable to steel.

  The Nord soldiers guarding this section of the city wall are in awe of this bald priest. They once witnessed a war mammoth being driven out of the city wall by the bald priest, and no one knows how he did it.

   "Shoot the arrow!"

After   thousands of attacking fortifications, the longbow was drawn, and the dense arrows flew from the city wall, and the barbarian wave was overwhelmingly rushing towards the port of Ditus.

Above the tower, cannons and mortars spewed fire tongues in turn. Hundreds of barbarians died under the cannonballs, but their deaths did not cause a single wave. The looters quickly stepped through the ravines in front of the city wall, intercepting the wooden stakes. , Rejection horses were also destroyed one by one.

   Several chaotic giants, groups of chaotic trolls, human-skinned wolves and other twisted beasts also rushed up from the back end of the battle line.

"Wow!!" The barbarians rushed under the city wall like a flood, and the Norsca champion warriors and Chaos Gods who were supervising the battle shouted loudly. Dozens of climbing ladders were turned up from the wave, and all the tops of the ladders stood on the ground. With a Chaos warrior, the evil gods bestow gifts on these mighty warriors.

A section of the city wall where Luther Hus was located, a cloud ladder smashed on the city wall, standing on the order, the warrior of Chaos armed with heavy weapons jumped down, and chopped down several archers in the sweep, blood and broken limbs scattered around, The archer died in a scream.

"Oh! Damn it!" Upon seeing this, the bearded mercenary took a few steps back, just as he was about to avoid his edge, another sound of heavy smashing sounded beside him, the second Chaos warrior on the top of the city, with his axe blade impartial He chopped head off.

   "锵!" The mercenary raised his sword to block, and the numbness from his wrist forced him to retreat.

"Melee combat! Melee combat!" The officers' orders sounded from all sections of the city wall, and the archers and crossbowmen hurriedly retreated in a chaotic manner. The spearmen who were barely lined up were holding their spears, shouting angrily and approaching the Chaos Warriors. The hunched men were also among them. They could only wear simple armor, not even iron breastplates. Seven or eight spears were poked at the Chaos Warriors. superior.

   "Bang!" Luther Hus's two-handed warhammer smashed the Chaos Warrior's waist, the scorching red hammer head smashed it off the city wall, he shouted, and then fell off the city wall.

  's lieutenant, Ser Kalemar, also noticed the intractability of Chaos' first wave.

   With an order, a large number of infantry knights rushed to the city wall, beheading the Chaos Warriors who were extremely difficult for ordinary soldiers to fight.

  Many soldiers tried to push the ladder away, but the hooks on it were firmly fastened to the edge and went a few inches deep, and even hitting the wood didn't work.

  The battle situation gradually deteriorated. The Norsca army was unable to attack for a long time, and had already paid more than 2,000 casualties, and the situation in Dites Harbor was not much better.

"Hoo ha! Hoo ha! Hoo ha! Hoo ha!" More than an hour later, outside the city wall, more than a dozen Chaos Warrior Legions surrounded a group of about 300 people, wearing heavy brass plate armor, each with a head On the crown, the eight-pillar emblem, which symbolizes the evil **** of Khorne, is glowing with blood, and the sturdy adult men are several heads short in front of them.

   They are a legendary army belonging to the Athlin tribe, the "Iron Wolf Guards", even for the Norscans, they are very dangerous, extremely tyrannical and bloodthirsty, making everyone in the Empire fear.

A tall scarlet figure rode a Khorne steel bull towards Dites Harbor. The most trusted champion of the Supreme King of Norsca, the champion warrior of Khorne God's Choice, Kamala Dragon Bloodhound raised his chain-toothed battle axe in his hand. , 300 iron wolf guards flocked to the cloud ladder and siege tower howling.

   "Musket! Fire!!"

The sharp trumpet sound came from the top of the city. In Dites Harbor, more than 700 musketeers pulled the trigger at the Chaos Warriors in brass plate armor. The sound of popping beans, mixed with pungent gunpowder, mixed with the charge. The predators in the team fell in large numbers, and only a dozen Iron Wolf guards were shot and killed on the spot.

Anyone with a discerning eye could realize that the Norsca army wanted to forcibly take down the city wall, and dozens of Chaos trolls and human-skinned wolves also rammed towards the city gate. .

The iron wolf guards who climbed the city wall through the Chaos Siege Tower slaughtered a lot of soldiers in just a few seconds, and the Norsca raiders didn't even dare to rush up during this time, so as not to be accidentally cut by the group of real lunatics die.

"The knights of Uric! Drive them off the city walls!!" Ser Kalemar rushed to the front line of the battlefield, holding the silver-grey wolf-headed warhammer, and smashed the head of an iron wolf guard who rushed up: "For Uric, for Ditesshavn!"

"For Uric\Mannan!" With the appearance of the knight commander, more than 200 white wolf knights aroused endless courage and anger. They fought bravely to kill the enemy, and violently blasted the yellow with warhammers and tomahawks. Copper plate armor, smashing the Chaos Warriors inside.

The sea knights wearing the cloaks of the sea gods were also dispatched. They held blue scimitars or tridents, and brutally cut all the iron wolf guards who were trying to kill the imperial people into two pieces. A large number of imperial knights rushed forward. In the siege of a large number of knights, more than 200 iron wolf guards suffered heavy losses. On average, one person faced two knights and several imperial soldiers, but even so, they still caused huge losses to the defenders of Dites Harbor. .

  The city walls, beaches, and streets of the Port of Diets, all three sides of the city walls are covered in smoke, and the three sides of the city walls are caught in a tragic war.

Throwing objects such as throwing axes, javelins, and whalers' forks were continuously thrown from under the city walls. Marauders and whalers took advantage of the chaos to cause considerable damage. The swamp-dwelling witches and wizards waved their dead wood staff and dropped one after another over the city. Remembering Chaos Magic, the city gate was summoned out of the dark abyss. Within more than 30 meters, all the soldiers were deprived of their souls, and the knights were no exception.

The imperial mages who assist the defense sing the spells, Aksha, the wind of fire, Heshi, the wind of the beast, Guer, the wind of the beast, the flaming skeleton, the light of exile, the amber spear, the imperial mages use the same damage area spell to fight back on North Card Army.

   At this moment, a shadow tens of meters wide was projected on the ground above Dites Harbor.

   is the Frost Demon Dragon, it has landed!

   Ask for tickets and subscriptions!
