Chapter 113 Advancement
Chapter 113 Promotion
And the most critical thing in this battle of Keral is Bradford!
So even though I was defeated, I used it as a transit station and bridgehead for the entire army, there was great potential for both advance and attack or retreat and defense, and Bradford became the first element of this war.
The army starts broadcasting!
Sixteen kilometers away from the battlefield, separated directly, led by the three round table knights of the light cavalry, and directly broke into Preston. On the other side were large troops that were directly broken into pieces, which would bypass Brafordford, enter the enemy's territory and launch the aristocratic killing tactics.
If you can bring back, you will bring back all the people who dare to resist. Kill them all! With five hundred people as a benchmark, they have no enemies in this land - they have been completely defeated by Keral!
And only three thousand troops remained to attack - no one could tell, Keral's five thousand infantry were counted among combat units.
I have to say that the idea of the British knight supremacy is really stubborn and deeply rooted.
This is true for both British, Scots, and Irish!
"Are you planning?" Standing behind Keral, Denisa was full of enthusiasm. It was obvious that for others, her charm was even greater than Artoria... especially many mature female controllers.
But Denisa's identity as a great sword made everyone discouraged. More importantly, although she was arrogant and smiling at everyone, she was just a mask. Apart from Keral and Inelli, she would not open her heart to anyone - even Artoria back then, and His Majesty the King is the same.
Facing Denisa's problem, Keral smiled slightly, and Zhizhu was holding it.
Denisa really dislikes Kylar's smile, the smile that has been hanging on his face since he was a child...
It's really annoying!
He stepped forward and slapped the iron boots and came to Kailar, pulling his face and changing shape: "I said it, don't show that expression in front of me!"
"Haha, is it because of this expression that made you recognize your original intelligence?" He patted her hand gently, and Kailar smiled, without any doubts about her intimate performance.
After ten years of friendship, even things like feeding are not at all peaceful.
His eyes couldn't help but look at the two people who made intimate actions on the hill on the left. Artoria was a little confused for some reason.
"King. (The grammar here is king.)" Bedivir asked on Artoriama with a little concern.
"It's okay." Artoria smiled and shook her head gently. Looking at the group of enemies who were already panicked and carrying city defense equipment on the city wall, Artoria smiled confidently.
Bradford is a castle located on a hillside (see Gondor in "The Lord of the Rings" for details).
It is exactly the same as the castle of Grand Duke Andre, and it is also the defensive style of the inner castle in Hongye Ridge.
Relying on the mountain wall as a cover, it is only necessary to simply dig and carve it to create an absolute defense field. It is located at a high level, slopes, thorns, mountain walls, and the city walls at a 60-degree angle make the infantry unable to get on the ladder, and the knights' horses are absolutely useless.
This kind of defense has been passed down for many years. At first, it was probably just to prevent the knight from having a powerful attack power that could break through the city gate?
However, after many attacks failed, this kind of castle eventually became mainstream.
Layer and stack of defenses extend above the castle, and at the top of the castle is the existence of the city lord and the lord.
The advantage of this kind of defense is that no matter how powerful the commander is, even if he is broken, the subsequent street fighting and layers of defense can still ensure that they can use the terrain to regain it.
Moreover, the layers of defense greatly limit the knight's speed and mounts.
It is precisely because of the existence of this kind of castle that most suitable terrain build huge castles, one is territory and the other is defense.
This castle became stronger until the Middle Ages and was more suitable for other terrains. It was the prism that had better defense power that allowed this absolute defensive city wall to retreat from the war system.
Of course, there are still many such castles in later generations that are mostly used as tourist attractions (mainly in Germany and the United Kingdom).
(Maybe it is a bit bad to use Gondor in the Lord of the Rings. If someone wants to read it carefully, you can search for it at Du Niang: "Crusader Knights". There is a design picture on Du Niang)
"Go!" Artoria waved the sword of victory, and with a real shock, five big cars were pushed out...
Each of the five big cars has a flat head, with a three-horse-body platform on it. The platform extends out afterwards, showing a 45° angle slope. There are six wooden wheels on each side of the car, relying on the people hiding inside to move, a total of fifty people slowly pushing the car forward.
No one can see outside except for the two holes in the front that can be observed and given orders.
This chariot, called the Charge, was hosted by Keral. It was developed by his students and allowed the knights to use this platform to directly board the city wall. (There were such chariots in the Song Dynasty before, but I don’t know what they were called. As for those who could help me find information, I’m really grateful.)
This car has a forty-five-degree angle and is suitable for cavalry charges. As long as it is made strong, even heavy cavalry can advance on a platform made of iron plates after it is leaned against the city wall.
In other words, the advantages of the city wall were instantly flattened by these five cars!
The other party's commander roared hard with a look of earth, directing his subordinates to drop rolling stones, logs and torches to the five charge cars, but for some reason, these things that look wooden will not be damaged by rolling stones and logs at all. If this damn thing is completely made of iron or bronze, it will definitely not be pushed up the slope!
But these cars slowly approached the city wall on the slope slowly and firmly.
When the huge car stopped with a loud bang, several hands stretched out to pull down a certain machine bracket on the wheel.
The car stuck in place is like a turtle shell, leaving the other party with nowhere to start.
Artoria, who adheres to her usual style, led the Knights of the Round Table to rush to the top of the city with the golden sword in her hand...
Bradford was captured by the Camelo Army as a strategic location!!
ps: Woooo... You guys are so damn it! And! It's not that I'm not good at drawing it! It's obvious that the pixels of the mobile phone are not good, but the angle is crooked... In addition, this kind of picture should not be used for mobile phones... Isn't it filtered with a printer?
ps: I've been very busy recently. I owe you two updates and make up for it on Saturdays and weekends...
