On the seventh day of the Philadelphia Siege, Heidi Bart used his father's legacy - hundreds of kilograms of black powder purchased from the forest dwarves of the Southwest Continent to blow up the walls of Philadelphia. The Atlantan side and the sunset side collided again in the inner city of Philadelphia, and the sword soldiers met.

The battle began, and no matter how large the Atlantan side was, the Sunset side defending Philadelphia still had a near-perfect advantage. First of all, after spending 4 or 5 hours clearing the problem of the Atlantan citizens who were rioting in the inner city, the Sunset side not only got about 1 day of rest and recuperation, so that the Sunset soldiers who had fought until they were exhausted and slightly injured returned to a better fighting condition; And it has also obtained nearly 30,000 free laborers who have been frightened, and these labors do not count the old and weak, but it is estimated that they cannot be counted, after all, as a gentleman's division prevails in the soldiers who never set, except for a very few members, whether it is those new soldiers or veterans, most of the time will not touch those children, women and old people. With the help of more than 30,000 laborers, some officers who never set the sun directed these free laborers to collect all the building materials that could be dismantled in the inner city, such as wood planks and stone bricks, and used them to strengthen the defenses of the inner city of Philadelphia. For example, those wooden planks can be transformed into baffles to resist enemy arrows, and those stone bricks can be used to strengthen the defense of the city wall, and can be combined with rope, leather, etc., to make falling stones, and even simple scattershots used by trebuchets.

At the same time, the ruins left behind after the burning of the outer city of Philadelphia also add some odds of victory for the side where the sun never sets: the chaotic ruins can effectively slow down the time for the Atlanta soldiers to move forward, although this will also reduce the hit rate of the ranged troops on the side where the sun never sets, and those ruins will provide cover for the Atlantan soldiers, but don't forget that what the sun does not set on in this battle is not to destroy the enemy, but only to delay the time and wait for reinforcements to arrive; And these chaotic ruins will also lead to the Atlanta side of the soldiers, it is impossible to bring those siege towers into the city, at most they can only use those wooden siege ladders to attack the city, as for those rushing cars, the sun never sets the side believes that last night with cement and stone bricks behind the heavy iron gate, the construction of a 1-meter-thick "stone gate" will definitely surprise those siege Atlantans.

................When the distant sky showed a hint of fish's belly white, only a few sporadic flames were dancing in the tranquility of the outer city of Philadelphia, which was broken by the blowing of the giant conch horn. Immediately afterwards, in front of the four gates of the inner city shrouded in smoke and fog, a rushing car wrapped in iron sheets appeared in each of them. Around it, the Atlanta ranged infantry and the Atlantan hand-to-hand soldiers equipped with siege ladders appeared in a scattered formation, and with the appearance of the four heavy siege vehicles, they poured into the ruins of the outer city, and began to think about the place where the inner city walls existed.

"Yoman longbowmen on standby, giant shield crossbowmen shoot freely, throw cans and bows ready!" The reason why the sun never set on the officers who kept the Yoman longbowmen on standby was not to save physical strength, but to save the only bows and arrows they had in their hands for the rest of the battle, so that they could use a few more geographical suppressions to the maximum and slow down the pace of the Atlantans' attack.

Because the battlefield has become a ruin, the most lethal weapons on the side of the sun now are not Greek fire throwers, nor those huge black iron pots filled with hot oil, but asphalt clay pots that can shine splash damage to the enemy in the process of shattering, these clay pots can not only bombard the Atlantan soldiers hiding behind the obstacles in a parabolic way, but also block the Atlantan soldiers in the ruins for a certain period of time, some way forward, after all, the fire in the outer city has just been extinguished, and there are still sparks left in many places, As long as a little fish oil and edible oil can turn it into a sea of fire again.

"Pour oil! Pour oil! The black waterfall sprinkled down, with an inconspicuous fire fold, the inner walls of Philadelphia turned into a sea of fire again, the tearing wail did not make the soldiers feel guilty, on the contrary, it also aroused the cruelty that had just faded in the hearts of these soldiers on the side of the sun, and in the eyes of these soldiers who never set, these Atlanta soldiers in front of them seemed to be no longer those soldiers, but the Atlantan citizens who knelt down in front of them yesterday morning and begged them not to kill them.

"Woo woo woo ............" Just 2 hours after the battle began, a horn from the horn of the sun never sets came from outside the city, but this horn did not add a trace of joy to the face of Assar, who was guarding the inner city, on the contrary, it made his face more solemn and even embarrassed: "Your Excellency, the Atlantic troops who have been rioting by the auxiliary cavalry have been forced to run into the city, relying on the outer wall defense system of Philadelphia to keep our auxiliary cavalry out of Philadelphia. ”

"I've learned from the message of the trumpet." In the makeshift command room built by the soldiers on the tallest watchtower in Philadelphia, Ah sighed lightly and said: "They have done a very good job, they can delay so many Atlanta soldiers for more than 2 hours, which is beyond my original expectations, and now the offensive and defensive battle in Philadelphia will depend on us." ”

As Asal said, the Sunset Auxiliary Cavalry outside Philadelphia could no longer help the Philadelphia defenders, but Asal said to Sasaki that the Sunset Soldiers automatically ignored a hidden message from the horn - the Auxiliary Cavalry would be the last to contribute to the Philadelphia Brethren.

"Whew!" The arrow slashed through the still dim sky, and after the neighing of the horses, a sunset auxiliary cavalryman fell on the road leading to the walls of Philadelphia, and Heidi Barth, who shot the arrow, also threw the pulley crossbow in his hand to his guard after a few seconds of immersion, and said to him: "Is the information true?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the information is absolutely true, the 50,000 reinforcements that never set are now only more than 30 miles away from Philadelphia, and they have a precious compass that allows them to travel quickly through the forest, so the scouts estimate that the reinforcements will reach outside Philadelphia in 6 hours at most."

"6 hours? I hope that the sea god has left me enough time to destroy the soldiers in the city, and you can pass on my order to let the whole army attack......... Oh yes, help me get my armor ready, it's my turn to take the lead. ”
