Under the personal demonstration of Duke Steinkhoff, the Nord army has indeed made a lot of achievements in the level of non-defense, especially in preventing the killing and wounding of the powerful incendiary bombs of the Falcon Army's powerful continent, in the Battle of Vekia South and the Battle of Gerarence, the Nord King ** team suffered a big loss on the incendiary bombs of the Falcon Dynasty,

In order to deal with the Falcon Army's extremely destructive covering flame attack, Duke Steinhoff ordered all squadrons to drill deep holes in the defense area, even if they encountered a fierce attack by the Falcon Army, they would not fall into a state of complete chaos, of course, Duke Steinhoff did not know that in Gerarence, the number of soldiers who hid in the hiding cave and choked to death by smoke and poison was twice as many as the soldiers who were burned to death,

Duke Steinkhoff is a veteran of the Nord army, and at this moment, he is ordered to be in danger, which shows his status in the Nord military circles, whether it is a veteran general who has fought for many years, or a new recruit who has just joined the army, he does not dare to resist his orders in the slightest, even if a top general like the commander of the First Army does not dare to say a word when Duke Steinkhoff has a tough attitude.

"Where are the trebuchets arranged?" asked Duke Stankhov, scanning the defense area in front of him, with some eagerness.

"It's on that high ground about 200 meters to the left," the attendant replied hurriedly.

Under the leadership of his entourage, Duke Stankhoff soon saw the only heavy trebuchet position in this area, these behemoths dragged out of the city walls and warehouses of Kyoto, each weighing more than 1,500 catties, if the winch was pulled apart, it could throw a 200-kilogram giant stone projectile at a distance of 300 meters.

Its striking surface, almost covering a third of this area, the only drawback, is that these trebuchets are very old, even the latest one, has been idle on the walls of Kyoto for 15 years, not to mention the others, Nord Kyoto has never been attacked from outside, naturally these weapons that have gathered countless efforts of skilled craftsmen are also ornaments,

Many trebuchets were more or less in trouble when they were inspected, but the situation was urgent, and Duke Steinkhoff couldn't manage it so much, but after a brief repair, all of them were pulled up to the forward line of defense.

Some people also objected to this, wouldn't this make Kyoto completely lose the ability to counterattack from a distance, but Duke Stanchoff's attitude was very clear, if the containment line was breached, even if there were more trebuchets in Kyoto, it would be useless, even if it was the once famous Vekia Titan-level giant trebuchet, it would not be able to stop the Falcon army from attacking the city!

Duke Steinkhoff looked at the trebuchet position in front of him with satisfaction, well camouflaged, behind a small high ground, the straight line observation of the falcon army could not be observed,

In normal times. They were all hidden deep in the deep pits of the highlands, and the paved meadows were only uncovered when they were fighting, and for the sake of secrecy, the trebuchet positions were carried out in the highest level of secrecy, and the security level was similar to that of Duke Stankhoff's own security guards.

These triangular array of trebuchet positions will be a powerful weapon for the Nord army to use against the Falcon army, and even if the Falcon army knows the location of these trebuchets, it will be extremely difficult to break through the layers of obstacles formed by 200 arrow carts and rush up.

This is already a great comfort for the ordinary soldiers of Nord. At least when the Falcon attacked the ground, they also had a chance to give the Falcon a taste of being covered in a rain of catapults and arrows. The main headache for the Nord soldiers at the moment is the Molotov cocktails of the Falcon Army. That has almost become a psychological obstacle for many Nord recruits, and when the Falcon Army is confronted, the morale of the officers and soldiers of the Nord army is generally low, and they cannot fully and effectively play in battle. ...,

And the appearance of these reinforced trebuchets will undoubtedly greatly boost the morale of the Nords, as they are about to see the Falcon hoplites groaning in pain under the blows of the Nords.

In addition to these heavy trebuchets, the Nord military department also very generously put all the 200 large arrow carts in stock on the outside line, which greatly improved the Nord army's small number of archers, and raised the defense level of the Nord army to a whole level, so that the Nord army has at least a short period of time, almost equal to the Falcon army's salvo ability.

Looking at the impregnable Kyoto defense line that he had built, Duke Steinhoff was very satisfied, and he was now looking forward to the time when the Falcon Army launched an attack, so that the Falcon Army could also taste the long-range counterattack of the Nord army, so as to comfort the souls of the 20,000 Nord soldiers who were tragically burned alive by the Molarance Molotov cocktails of the Falcon Army on the south wall of Gelarens.

He wanted the Falcon Army to know that not only the Falcon Army had long-range weapons in this world, but the Nord Kingdom also had powerful long-range weapons, but his hopes were disappointed, after the Falcon Army broke through the Geralens Line, it changed the way of fighting in the past, and placed the main direction of the attack on the weak Acropolis outside Kyoto.

"What's going on?" Looking at the conquered acropolis one by one, the Nord Military Department, which has always supported the idea of Duke Stanchoff's external decisive battle, also began to lose its breath, there are a total of 8 Acropolis in Nord Kyoto, one in each direction, once known as the 8 diamonds on the neck of Nord Kyoto, which is the initial line of defense to conquer the outer perimeter of Nord Kyoto

Because of the shortage of troops, Duke Stankhoff thought that the Falcon army would never sacrifice too much time on the Acropolis, and had given up the idea of supporting the Acropolis, waiting for the fierce Falcon Army to plunge into his trap, but no one expected that the Falcon Army was like hearing something in advance, and put the target of the conspicuous Nord Kyoto not to fight, but to fight with the Acropolis outside Kyoto without saying a word

"Your Majesty has already begun to inquire about this matter!" In the hall of the Nord Military Department, Duke Allenbo, the Minister of War, threw a book on the table with a cautious expression, and said to Duke Stankhoff opposite him with an unkind face

"This is this morning, the Inner Court War Department's Lister's Jianyi book, he said that the eight Acropolis of Kyoto are the barrier of Kyoto, if you let the Falcon Army eat them one by one, once the Acropolis all falls, the Nord Kyoto Fall will be completely isolated and helpless!"

"The Inner Court War Department?" Duke Steinhoff was stunned for a moment, and then said disdainfully, "You and I both know that the Inner Court War Department is just a retirement ground for some idle old guys, for those of them who have never fought against the Falcon Army, our tactics are naturally too incredible, but if we rescue the Acropolis, it will be equivalent to falling into the strategy of the Vekia Falcon to weaken our defense!"
