When the messenger returned to the camp, he told Harry the details of what had just happened.

After quietly listening to the messenger's statement, Harry sighed.

"Denis de DuPont... The Lorraine empire is lucky to have such generals..."

After such a sigh, Harry stood up from his chair.

"Our mockery has failed."

"Now that it has failed, don't waste time."

"Send orders!"

Harry yelled at a knight on his side.

"Attack!"

"Yes!"

……

……

Kaka kaka

The sound of mechanical activity can be heard all the time.

This is the sound made by the catapult and the siege crossbow when they are ready to shoot.

The success of Orleans strategy is directly related to the final victory or defeat of the war against Yugoslavia.

In other words, this strategic battle in Orleans can be seen as the final decisive battle of the war against Yugoslavia.

So Harry made no reservations.

Directly ordered the launch of all siege crossbows and catapults in their army to launch a rainstorm like long-range attack on Orleans.

While the siege crossbow and catapult were preparing to shoot, the siege tower loaded with a large number of soldiers was ready for battle and could launch an indomitable charge against the wall of Orleans at any time.

"Coach!"

A knight reported to Harry:

"All the catapults are ready to shoot!"

"Yes." Harry nodded. "Okay! Attack! "

……

……

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The dense and disturbing wind roared towards Orleans.

After the breaking wind fell, there was a deafening roar.

One by one, huge stones and arrows swept across the sky and smashed heavily outside, on the wall and inside Orleans.

The people of Orleans, who have never smelled the breath of blood and fire, have experienced what earth shaking is at this moment.

"Don't panic!"

Denis, who was standing on the wall to command the battle, shouted at the gang of newly armored citizens on the wall.

"These stones and giant arrows just look scary! In fact, it's not so easy to hit someone! Calm down! Lean under the ledge! "

What Denny had done to restore the trust of the people of Orleans worked.

Although some people are still hostile to Denis and others, some people are moved by Denis and decide to trust them again.

The reward list made by Denis was very attractive. After deciding to trust Denis again, a large number of city people enthusiastically signed up and planned to devote their efforts to defending Orleans.

Before the arrival of the British army, a large number of citizens left Orleans and fled to the safer south.

The people who still stay in Orleans are basically people with deep local plots and are unwilling to leave the land where they were born and grew up.

Of course, some people don't leave because they are quite naive - even if the britannians capture Orleans, they won't do anything to Orleans.

But there are only a few such people.

Most of the people who still stay in Orleans are people who love this land deeply.

Therefore, they naturally do not want to see this land and Orleans become enemies.

This determination not to let Orleans become an enemy, coupled with the money reward proposed by Denis, immediately aroused a large number of people to actively participate in the city defense of Orleans.

Those who were able to go up to the wall and fight face to face with the britannians put on the armor and weapons of their Roman army.

People who are unable to fight can also have a lot of work to do, such as cooking, boiling water and taking care of the wounded

Although Denis received a large number of recruits, the combat effectiveness of these recruits is obviously poor.

These recruits were ordinary citizens a few days ago.

And a few days later he became a soldier in armor.

In just a few days, they naturally can't get any decent training.

In such a short time, all Denny can do is teach them some passwords they must know.

Without professional training, the combat ability is naturally very poor.

Before the battle officially began, the poor fighting quality of the citizens of Orleans showed incisively and vividly.

Although these huge stones and arrows are amazing, their hit rate is very poor, and the possibility of accurately hitting the city wall is very low.

So the veterans of the Orleans garrison were not afraid of the heavy rain of stones and arrows from the British army.

Compared with these big stones and huge arrows, the veterans are more afraid of the arrows shot by the crossbow men.

But the people of Orleans who have just put on their armor for a few days don't understand this.

One by one, they were frightened by the huge stones and arrows passing through the air and overhead, and even their legs were shaking.

Although Denis had made psychological preparations for such a scene early, he couldn't help feeling quite helpless after actually seeing it.

After roaring one after another and pulling several city people who were almost paralyzed on the ground, the panic of the city people was calmed a little.

When Denis tried his best to maintain order, the generals of the British army had launched an assault on the wall under the cover of stone rain and arrow rain.

Looking at the hundreds of siege towers coming towards the city wall, Denis calmly pulled out his long sword around his waist.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

......

......

In order to avoid being attacked by stone catapults and siege crossbows, all the citizens living near the city wall withdrew and moved their homes into the city.

Even in the city center of Orleans, you can still hear the earth shaking cry of killing.

......

......

After the siege tower mounted the city wall, teams of britannian soldiers in black armor rushed up the city wall of Orleans and rushed towards the defenders on the city wall.

Although the combat effectiveness of the British army generals was indeed very strong, the Rowling army occupied the geographical advantage after all. Therefore, the British Army's attack was resisted and pushed back again and again by the defenders of Orleans.

Looking at the current situation in which their Lorraine strategy was dominant, Denis couldn't help shouting in his heart.

But - although the war is dominated by their Rowling army at present, Denis still can't help raising some concerns - he is worried about the militias.

In terms of movement, the British soldiers participating in the attack are certainly not first-class elite.

But it's certainly not a rookie who hasn't seen blood several times.

Several militias worked together to compete with a well-trained britannian soldier.

When Denis was secretly worried about the death and injury rate of the militia, a figure attracted Denis's attention.
