"Master, you can't make a breakthrough!" Kidd observed from a distance on the sea, said to the fleet commander Huppel.

"Well, it's really hard to break through. By the way, Kid, is there any other landing place on this island? I don't think it is possible to forcefully break through this landing point ..."

"Yes, there is a small fishing port called Oddshilde. However, that fishing port is of little value. And the gentlemen of the parliament have no interest in that fishing port. What they have to do is to destroy Denborg and special Hollander's two busiest towns and rural corn fields. I heard that the island is planted with a lot of winter wheat ... "

"You stupid, I'm not asking about value, but about the possibility of breakthrough! We now see that we can't break through Tholencher's defense, why do we continue to die? I mean, go to the fishing port and see if you can Whether to land there. As long as we can land there, we can send troops to pinch Tholencher from behind! "

"Send troops to land at Oddshilde?"

"Yes, I don't believe in a small fishing port over there, Marin's **** also has a few heavy cannons!"

Uh ...

Huppel was right to guess, because of the progress of the project, the walls and turrets of Oderschild had not yet been completed.

Of course, the same 8 turrets are all built. But the old Johnson's clay molds have not yet dried. Therefore, Oddshilde had a turret in the air and no artillery needed.

In addition, the defensive fence here has not been built yet, but a foundation has just been laid ...

Uh ...

基 When Kidd brought two warships and dozens of small fishing boats near Oddshild's pier, the coast defense forces immediately panicked ...

Kyde bravely, commanded two warships to sail near Oddshild Pier, and found that he had not been shelled, and immediately overjoyed ...

He knew that artillery had not been equipped here. In other words, land here without worrying about the ship sinking ...

Kidder hurried to Hupel and reported:

大 "Master, there is no shore defense artillery on Oddshilde, and there does not seem to be a tall fence there!"

"How many garrisons are there?"

"This ... no subordinates are sent to attack, and I don't know how many defenders there are ..."

"You stupid, this is not clear ... well, let's go to Oddshilde and land there!"

"Yes!"

Uh ...

Soon after, Friesland's fleet, under Hupel's command, turned all the way to the east and then turned north ...

伦 Frenzberger, standing on the wall of Tholencher, was immediately shocked:

糟 "Well, the guys probably know that Oddshilde has no shore guns! Quickly, let the acting captain of Fried lead a company to support Oddshilde urgently!"

Fronzberg immediately ordered a 250-person company to support Oddshild's defense. In addition, after leaving enough defensive forces in Tholencher, he went to Denborg himself, intending to mobilize the troops of Denborg to go to Odeshilde to assist the defense.

Uh ...

Oddshilde, here Texel has no artillery. Therefore, when the Friesland fleet arrived, Hupel could safely order the ship to shell on shore without worrying about the ship being shelled.

Twenty artillery guns flew together, not a joke. Therefore, the 250 garrisons originally arranged here could not resist the shelling at all, and could only hide behind the bunker.

But, in this way, the defending generals could not resist the landing of the Frisian army ...

When a company of the defense team arrived, the Friesian army had already transported 600 soldiers ashore by small fishing boats ...

According to the requirements of ordinary training, the garrison officer of the Odeshilde, Sardin, and the captain of the Fried company who came to the aid, set out in a position west of Odeshilde, where the Frisian warship could not hit. And let the engineers dig trenches in response to the onslaught of the enemy.

Soon after, Frenzberg personally led the 200 Musketeers to come to reinforcements ...

After 700 Texel fighters lined up in a simple Spanish formation, the Friesian army was almost landing.

Many Frisian soldiers came from fishermen's families. They are very skilful in handling small fishing boats. So after collecting enough fishing boats, they could easily drive the fishing boats, approach the island of Texel, and complete the landing.

With 2,700 Frisian fighters under the leadership of the Frisian Infantry Commander Sivag, the array was completed and he was ready to attack the 700 Texel fighters at any time.

When the Friesland Army queue was completed, Siwag sent 100 heavy cavalry and launched a tentative attack on Texel's position ...

Unfortunately, there are 200 musketeers in Texel's army ...

"Ready-put-" Under the command of the captain of the musket company, 200 musketeers, behind the trench and in front of Texel spearmen, opened fire on the frisian heavy cavalry coming ...

Howling heavy bullets flew towards the Frisian heavy cavalry ...

"嘭 —— 嘭 —— 嘭 ——"

The Frisian cavalry, who were shot one by one, were knocked down by the huge impact and even flew backwards, despite wearing plate armor. The strong kinetic energy of the bullets has caused many people to have deep depressions in their plate armor. These metal depressions also caused the rider to experience tremendous deformation pressure, and also caused the cavalry who was shot to be crushed by the deformation of the metal, which severely injured many bones and caused serious injuries. Even more, when the heavy cavalry approached, the impact of the projectile was even greater. At this time, the bullet hit the plate armor, it was not a problem of depression, but penetration ...

As a result, the heavy cavalry that was shot one by one died miserably in front of the battle ...

For the 100 Frisian heavy cavalry who charged this round, there were only 18 lucky people who had not been shot. Because the bullets beat the ash machine without a shot, they were unscathed.

When they rushed to the front and back, they found two trenches, and pointed wooden stakes slanting forward ...

It was impossible to see what was happening. The remaining 18 Frisian heavy cavalry fled back to the front in a hurry, taking advantage of the gap between the Texel musketeers ...

Suddenly, in the Friesian army, Siwag was stunned ...

He was not expecting that the powerful plate cavalry, which would impact the infantry front, would suffer such a fiasco. Moreover, the 100 plate cavalry did not achieve the slightest result ...

Since then, Sigwar sent another two-handed swordsman to launch an assault, but he was still shot back by a rifle ...

That's what happened. Even Frenzberg was ready to fight back. But it happened, at this moment there was a light rain in the sky ...

糟糕 "Oops-" Frentzberg's face changed dramatically. Because the musket is most afraid of rainy weather. Even light rain can cause the fire rope to go out ...

Sure enough, the musketeers' fire ropes were extinguished by light rain ...

Siegwa across the street seemed to have discovered this, and the Frisians were excited ...

Once again, Sigwa sent 200 heavy armored swordsmen and launched a decisive charge ...

一次 This time, no gun can stop them. So, they rushed forward. However, two trenches and wooden spikes made them dumbfounded ...

Friesland Ephesians bit their heads, trying to climb through the trench, breaking through the wooden stakes. But the Texel soldiers behind the trench were not dead. As a result, the Frisian heavy armored swordsmen who wanted to climb over were taken back.

However, because Friesland's two-handed swordsmen wore plate armor and helmets, Texel spearmen had limited damage to them. The 100 heavily armored swordsmen who tried to cross the wooden stump were retreated, and only 20 were slightly injured ...

Squinting, Texel's army lost its long-range attack capability, and Sigvar simply recalled the heavily armored swordsman. Then he moved the battle of the Frisian Army forward as a whole to the vicinity of Texel ...

Obviously, the free Frisian army decided to fight the Texel army to consume ...

Squinting it was dark, and Frentzberg was anxious. After discovering that the Musketeers had lost their combat effectiveness, Frentzberg recruited the Musketeer Captain Boren Steindorf:

"Boron, this battle is not good. Now, your musketeers have lost their combat power. So I decided to give you a task!"

"Let ’s say, Lord of the Phalanx!" Franzberg was appointed acting head of the Phalanx and is currently the highest commander on Texel Island.

"Because it's raining, we can't defeat the opposite army. So, we may move to the defensive phase next. I order you, lead the brothers of the Musketeers, first withdraw to Denborg and put the guns into the warehouse. Then you immediately Out of the city, bring more than 1,000 war horses outside the city back to the city walls to avoid being robbed by the enemy! "

"Yes!" Steindorff turned around and left, ready to execute the order.

等等 "Wait!" Franzberg quickly stopped Steindorf.

"Any more orders? My lord!"

"You send a group of people to Yancheng by the sea and order the salt workers there to evacuate to the nearby Tholencher. Remember to bring those cauldrons too ..." Franzberg suddenly remembered, Schwarz Tsz once said that Yancheng is extremely important on Texel. However, Yancheng has no walls and no garrison. Therefore, letting the salt workers retreat into Tholencher is not far away.

"Yes!"

Soon, Steindorfer was ready with his 250 musketeers ...

After the night fell, Steindorf took the night quietly and led people to leave the battlefield quietly. Flenzberger, with his 500 spearmen, stayed on and confronted the Frisian army ...

I do n’t know what the Frisians thought. Before the battle, the Frisians had “invented” the javelin. They changed some of the broken spears and the spears in the arsenal stockpiled in the town of Odeshilde into javelins ...

Heswag did not want to rush into the tightly defended Texel infantry square, so he sent Hercules to throw a javelin outside ...

别 Don't even say that dozens of Texel infantry were seriously injured by javelin. Even an unlucky Texel infantry pierced his heart with a javelin ...

As for Frentzberg, the army did not order a counterattack. Because, he knew very well that most of his spearmen were actually recruits. If you leave the cover of trenches and wooden stakes, and fight hard with the Frisian army, there is the danger of being crushed. After all, the hundreds of epic swordsmen in plate armor on the other side were very martial arts, not to mention lacking courage. Once they enter the battlefield, the square array may collapse. Therefore, Frenzberg did not lead his troops, but stayed in the position ...

As night fell completely, the Frisians also stopped harassing attacks ~ www.novelhall.com ~ As for Swag, they seized several carpenters and blacksmiths in the town of Odeshilde and ordered They hurriedly made javelins overnight, but fortunately in the morning, they would cause greater casualties to Texel's army.

Under the command of Frentzberg, the Texel army did not move without authorization, but took turns to rest before the battle. When it was early in the morning, Fronzberg remembered that Marin had said that this time was the hardest time for people. So he decisively ordered the army to evacuate the position where the trench was dug on all sides, with more than 400 survivors, and strode back to Dengbao.

Friesland's scouts apparently found their retreat, but in the early hours, let alone the Frisian fighters, even the highest commander of the Frisian Siwag, could not sleep.

After Siwag got up, squinting his eyes, loudly urged the soldiers to hurry up and prepare to pursue Texel's army. However, the frisian army's discipline was poor and it was not possible to ban it.

So, after a toss of hours, the Frisian soldiers got up and finished the assembly.

西 When Sivag chased out with a group of yawning Frisian soldiers, Frentzberg had already returned to Denbourg with his spearmen.

Even halfway through, Franzberg brought the old Johnson, and his family and apprentices in the gunsmith's workshop south of Den Burg, to Den Burg to prevent them from being taken away by the Frisian ... ...

After a long night of tossing, Steindorfer also brought people to bring all the horses outside the castle and some of the people who might help the city guard into the castle.
