Chapter 336

EP.336

Peter Yeager gave an order after firing catapults and ballistas intensively for an hour.

“All troops go over the wall! When our infantry reaches near the castle wall, aim the catapults and ballistas inside the wall and shoot, while the archers and wizards take cover!”

As soon as Captain Jaeger’s order was given, the Reich Imperial soldiers began to march towards the castle wall, aligned in line, like a machine in motion.

As archers and wizards fired magic and arrows and siege weapons continued to fire from behind, the militiamen, who had not even been properly trained, let alone fought in a proper war, trembled in fear at the sight.

No, even the nobles on the walls who had experience leading mercenaries in several wars felt fear.

What they were afraid of was not the fear that they might die at any moment from a long-distance attack, but that all the soldiers of the imperial army were charging towards the castle walls without hesitation.

In the meantime, even though countless of his comrades were dying, he stepped on the corpses and advanced, giving off the air of a murderer with no emotions.

They knew very well that if you showed these people even the slightest gap, they would rush into it like a wave coming in.

“Fucking crazy bastards. “You know so well that you’re going to die, but you approach me like that without hesitation?”

“How on earth did you train your soldiers, Peter Jaeger bastard?”

“Put spearmen at the front on the castle wall and send soldiers with maces and swords behind them. Otherwise, you will be pushed out in an instant.”

The militia hurriedly changed their disposition as ordered anyway, and the Reich Imperial Army advanced, holding weapons in one hand and ladders in the other.

“Long live the Reich Empire! Long live your Majesty the Emperor! Don’t be afraid and go ahead! Just like in training! “If you get scared, that bastard will die first!”

“If you turn your back, I will kill you right away for escaping from an enemy battle! So, if you want to live, move forward! “Don’t even think about useless things!”

“Just think about being the first one up the wall and surviving! As long as you climb the castle wall first and survive, you will receive a medal! “Let’s risk our lives and sell like Captain Jaeger, let’s change it!”

The soldiers, who had become accustomed to formal training and control according to reasonable military law over a long period of time, continued to advance without hesitation according to the orders of their commanders.

In the meantime, when a comrade dies, just like they did in training, their body moves before reason to fill someone else’s place.

Soon, the imperial army’s vanguard troops arrived at the castle walls and set up ladders.

“We have to get over the wall! Hurry and stick! Archer platoon! “Right away, fire cover fire and kill the militia bastards around you!”

“The wizards assigned to the battalion support the brave comrades who climb the ladder!”

“Slaughter the ragtag militia! Everyone, charge forward!!”

Naturally, in the process, the militia members struggled to stop it by throwing stones, shooting arrows, or stabbing with spears.

“Captain Randel of the 81st Division! The first imperial army to climb the castle walls! Long live the Reich Empire! Long live your Majesty the Emperor! Long live Deus!”

Many militiamen pointed their weapons at him as he climbed the castle wall and tried to keep him in check, but he was a trained veteran who challenged human limits countless times during his time in the 7th Guards Division.

Holding a spear with his battalion flag stuck in it, he held on by stabbing the torsos and vital points of the militiamen who were coming one by one through the narrow passage, killing them precisely, thus buying time for other soldiers to come up.

Meanwhile, when he raised his flag, the commanders under Captain Jaeger changed the aim of their catapults and ballistas from near the walls to deep inside the castle.

Archers and wizards also focused their attacks, aiming for a distance away from Captain Randel and his soldiers.

“It would be a shame if Captain Randel, who was on top of the castle wall, died due to a mistake made by our team! “Change your aim.”

“Stop the catapult ballista attack! “Change your aim!”

“Fire at the cowardly soldiers on the wall! launch!”

The imperial army officers who saw this were 90% respectful of the bravery and martial arts and 10% envious of the huge reward and subsequent promotion, so they grabbed the ladder and started climbing the castle wall.

“Captain Landel, we can’t just let that bastard suffer! “I, Major Rein, the battalion commander of the 3rd Battalion, will be at the forefront as the battalion commander, so follow me!”

“You can’t show Captain Randel anything embarrassing! Follow him, charge forward!”

“There is a hole to jump into! “Dig in there!”

The butterfly effect caused by Randel quickly spread throughout the Venetian walls, and the imperial soldiers began to occupy the walls little by little.

In the process, numerous militiamen were killed by Reich soldiers who climbed up the ladder.

“rock! They are the bastards who threw stones. Crush his head with a mace! “Our squad leader was stoned to death!”

“You cowardly scarecrows! Come and hit me quickly! “I will kill you all!”

“Did you like throwing stones and spears on the castle wall? “Try it sometime!”

Although the imperial soldiers marched like robots without any emotions on the outside until they climbed the castle wall, their hearts were actually filled with resentment that their comrades died without being able to resist.

When the opportunity to solve it came, everyone turned on the lights in their eyes and charged in while maintaining the five and ten points just as they had learned in training.

The militia of Veneta City were killed without even being able to use their hands or feet, as it was difficult to deploy a large number of troops at once using ‘numerical superiority’ because the passage on the castle wall was already narrow.

Although Peter Yeager had not yet received the report, he saw the Imperial Army’s flags flying about on the castle wall and spoke.

“We may not be able to capture the castle, but we can bring great fear to our enemies. “It’s as planned.”
