Chapter 497 498 Castle AttackIn the castle, an officer pressed his long sword and walked to his commander, stunned. Report: "fief lord, there are Alanhill's soldiers everywhere, we are surrounded."
"How was this fought? How was this battle fought?" With a sad look on his face, he asked, "How come so many enemies suddenly fell from the sky? Huh?"
He still hasn't figured out why he is in the rear, and the troops in his hands are not fully equipped yet. When you are ready for battle, the enemy has already killed you.
"I have mobilized all the soldiers to board the city...but how long they can hold on, I don't know." The officer thought about the so-called soldiers standing on the city head, full of heart All are hopeless.
Most of the soldiers standing at the top of the city didn't even wear full armor. Most of the weapons in their hands were old and old, and some were even outdated and rusted.
However, due to the tight frontline, many troops are in urgent need of equipment, and all the reserved military supplies in the castle have been withdrawn, and now only these old equipment are left.
To make matters worse, most of these soldiers armed with outdated weapons were untrained farmers. If it wasn't for defending the city, they wouldn't even be able to do a basic formation in the wild, let alone fight with each other.
The only thing in the city that can be called battle strength is him and some serious City Guards, plus some magicians - these people add up to less than 80 people, facing ordinary enemies You can also rely on the city wall to fight back, but facing Alanhill's troops, it's hard to say.
"You must hold on until it gets dark! Close all city gates!" The lord knew that disaster was imminent, but he still ordered: "Stay until tomorrow morning, and our reinforcements should arrive."
According to his estimation, the reinforcements should be in action by now. Everyone can see the parachutes flying all over the sky, so the Imperial Reserves should have started to rush in from all directions for reinforcements.
His idea was actually not wrong. The Kasik Empire's reserve troops were indeed being mobilized, and they also wanted to reinforce these troops surrounded by paratroopers.
But they really couldn't do it. When facing the defense line of the paratroopers, they couldn't make even the slightest advance, let alone penetrate the defense line of the Alanhill paratroopers and reinforce those who were stubbornly resisting. troops.
Although he didn't believe the sleep talk of his lord, the officer knew that he could only rely on these dreams to persevere.
So he bowed his head slightly and respectfully exited the room where the lord was. Then he looked at the sky worriedly, and found that it was still a cloudless good weather.
Outside the castle, Alanhill paratroopers are freeing a grounded infantry war chariot from the buffer.
They cut the fixed ropes above, and the driver started the engine and set the new infantry war chariot into motion.
With the roar of the engine, the light infantry war chariot, equipped with cannons and anti-tank missiles, began to charge towards the selected target not far away with the three soldiers.
At the place where the three soldiers landed, the light air defense war chariot carrying field anti-aircraft missiles began to be on alert. Many paratroopers gathered into troops and opened up a flat land at the landing site.
The engineer unit set up various tents next to the open space, and many officers set up high-frequency communication antennas for the communication unit.
The signal troopers, armed with a large number of communication equipment, went to work, and communication quickly became very smooth.
There are also construction vehicles that are also fixed on the buffer device to the ground. Including tractors and various vehicles for leveling the land, at the same time, a large amount of quick-drying cement was dropped from the air.
The construction troop has started to get busy, and they are using these machines, as well as sappers and other equipment, to build a temporary field airfield in the area occupied by the paratroopers.
At the same time, the Alanhill soldiers close to the castle have begun to try to launch the first fortified battle, trying to eliminate the resistance in the castle in front of them, and occupy this threatening field airfield under construction. Target.
At least 400 meters away from the city wall, Alanhill's paratrooper sniper adjusted the scale of his scope to match the wind speed measured, and locked onto a Kasik Empire soldier standing behind the crenel.
"I've already aimed at him." The sniper said to his comrades: "You can shoot at any time..." Then he opened his mouth and ordered: "Fire! Suppress the city head and let our troops go down to the city!"
"Bah!" The sniper who could not wait immediately pulled the trigger, and a bullet would kill In this way, he flew over the distance and directly hit the forehead of the Kasik Empire soldier behind the crenel on the wall.
The Kashyyk soldiers who didn't even have a helmet fell in response, and before they even had time to let out a scream, they fell silent in a pool of blood.
However, the sudden fall of a soldier caught the attention of those around him. His comrades on the left and right immediately looked towards the friend who fell on the ground, and then fell to the ground in fright due to the hole in the corpse's forehead.
"Enemy, enemy attack!" Trembling, a poor Kasik Empire soldier finally shouted what he wanted to shout, but he was still too late, because another soldier responded. fall down.
Just two shots made the troops in this castle dare not show their heads. They lie behind the crenel, pointing fingers in the distance through the narrow gap.
Then, with another gunshot, another unlucky guy fell behind the mound, and the bullet flew in through a small gap and pierced his throat directly.
It is completely different from being hit in the head. The person who is hit in the neck has no way to die immediately. He can only lie on the ground and struggle hard. In the end, he can't breathe and suffocate to death.
The man who was hit by the bullet covered the bleeding hole in his neck with both hands. He opened his mouth and waited for help, and a large amount of blood flowed out. It was frightening to watch.
"Ah! Ah! Damn it! He's dead! Hell! He's dead!" A farmer with only a rake as a weapon was so frightened by the bloody scene in front of him that he couldn't stop his mouth. yelled .
Accompanied by his cry, while no one on the city wall dared to show their heads anymore, just below the city wall, Alanhill paratroopers with M4 assault rifles and bowed their waists. , has glued the plastic bomb to the heavy wooden door of the castle.
They put the detonator on the C4 and started pulling out the lead and the other side was attached to the detonator.
When everything was ready, a paratrooper gave a thumbs up to his comrade who was holding the detonator.
