Chapter 414: Dead Guard

Philadelphia, as the most important strategic city in the Western Continent and the throat of Atlantis City, the first city in the Western Continent, was originally a little decaying but not declining before the army invaded the city, and the Atlanta Empire, which was originally somewhat decaying but not declining, had been operating in this city for more than 300 years.

With a population of 400,000 and a maximum capacity of 700,000, this large Atlanta-style city not only has complete public facilities, but also has a very complete city defense system. Although the walls were built by the Atlantans, they could not reach the height of the average large city in the empire: 25 meters, which is only about 15 meters high. But the walls of Philadelphia also inherited the characteristics of the Atlantic style walls: thickness. The average width of this wall of about 15 meters high has reached 8 meters wide, which is enough for two carriages to move side by side on the city wall, which is also the reason why the city wall built by the Atlantans is not necessarily able to collapse if the sun never sets before the great empire conquers the Atlantan city in the western continent.

But now, the walls of Philadelphia, which may be stronger than the walls of Littor City, have a large rift of more than 10 meters in length in a bright light, and there is a huge crater with a diameter of nearly 20 meters at the bottom of this rift. As for the fragments of the bombed city wall and the severed arms and stumps of hundreds of soldiers who never set the sun, they were suspended in the air for a few seconds, and with blood, blood and stone chips, the soldiers who never set the sun, the houses in Philadelphia, and even some Atlanta soldiers who had not evacuated to a safe area before the guarantee were all taken care of.

"What's going on." The confused Sunset Soldier and Xiyi Ashigaru looked at the place where their comrades were still standing before, but now they were left only to cut off their legs and a large area of the collapse and muttered, let those Atlantan soldiers who had come to the screen earlier than them kill them with their swords, or some of the Sunset soldiers who came to support them pulled them down, and the Sunset Soldiers and Xiyi Ashigaru who were still alive around the landslide area just looked at the mouth of the city wall in confusion, muttering something in their mouths, and the weapons in their hands had already been dropped on the city wall, As for their two ears, they don't know why they have been bleeding all the time.

"What's going on! What's going on! More than half an hour later, when the soldiers who reacted and whose morale had dropped a lot recaptured the walls around the collapse area, the Greek Pyro used improvised jets to temporarily seal up the collapse area, a huge crater that could allow nearly 100 people to pour in at the same time, Rakuman, who had a wound in his right shoulder, his left foot was smashed by a rapidly falling stone, and his ears were still blistering with blood from time to time.

As a general who never sets, he has never been absolutely in his previous life, and there will be a day when he will be more wronged than today, and he inspected the military situation on the city wall, but he didn't expect his body to suddenly fly out of the city wall, if it weren't for the fact that his belt just hooked the eaves of a house in the process of falling, making himself temporarily suspended in the air more than 2 meters high to reduce the force generated when he fell before, otherwise he would now appear in front of everyone is a corpse that has been broken into a meat pie. As for falling to the ground again and being hit left and right by a falling stone, it couldn't be better for him than the previous moment of horror.

"Quiet! Please relax, Your Excellency! When you wake up, everything will be fine. After saluting Sherman and General Assar, the two field doctors who never set the sun smeared an oily green herbal mud on General Rakuman's ear in front of them, and stuffed another pale yellow herbal mud into his mouth to make him really quiet, and then dragged the general who had been fixed on a stretcher to the white camp behind which was already stained with blood: "According to the two field doctors, three toes of Rakuman's left foot were smashed and must now be removed immediately. Otherwise, he will enjoy the sins he may have. ”

"Poor Rakuman." Looking at the bloated body that was dragged away, Assal's expression showed a trace of sadness, and a little more solemnity, after all, without the existence of Rakuman, the original defense of Philadelphia was not a very strong siege engineering force of the sunset, and its combat effectiveness will drop by one percent, and the previous explosion was an extreme blow to the morale of the sunset: "This is not a good fight, although I don't know if the Atlantan side can still make the kind of movement just now, but only with the current situation of our army, it can be said that it is even more difficult to hold Philadelphia!" ”

"I don't think the Atlantan side will be able to do that again." Sherman, who was staring at the sand table in front of him with Assar, turned around and stared at the sand table in front of him, and said after a moment of contemplation: "If I were Heidi Bart, and I could still make the same kind of movement as before, I should continue to open the rift in the three city walls, after all, if he wants to use this to demoralize our soldiers, he should strike a full blow, not only the east and west walls, and this is probably the only thing that our army is happy about now." ”

"Alas! A rift appeared that allowed the Atlantan soldiers to pour in, not only did we show that we had lost a general, but also that the morale of the soldiers had plummeted, and the Atlantans in the city began to riot again, and I don't know how the battle was fought......... Sherman, is there any news from Sun Linmian? ”

"There is good news, His Majesty Sun Lin seems to have learned about the situation in Philadelphia, and has sent 60,000 troops to the direction of Philadelphia, including a cavalry force composed of more than 8,000 auxiliary cavalry archers coming in the direction of Philadelphia, and will be able to appear outside Philadelphia late this night to launch a surprise attack on the Atlantan side, but there is also bad news, that is, our more than 50,000 foot troops will not be able to reach Philadelphia until at least the morning after tomorrow, so before that, our reinforcements are only these nearly 10,000 auxiliary cavalry."

"Actually, neither is good news." Asal smiled bitterly, "Sherman, it's early in the morning!" The sun has just risen in the east, not in the west, 20 hours, how can I keep it! ”

"What then? Philadelphia can't afford to lose! ”

"What else can I do? It can only be mixed cold! ”
