Outside the east gate of the Bossa Allied Forces Camp, Marin ’s 20,000 main force has been attacking for more than half an hour, but there is still no movement to the west of the enemy camp.
Marin was very puzzled. With the light of the torch, he took out the bulky gold pocket watch of the bun and looked at the time to make sure that the time was more than half an hour, or even 40 minutes.
"Did something happen?" Marin thought nervously.
However, Marin quickly rejected his own idea. If something goes wrong, there should be some movement in the west. For example, the Bossa Allied Forces found reinforcements and took the initiative to attack. However, it should also shout to kill the sky. It ’s like now, there ’s no movement in the west ...
The Bossa Allied Forces were obviously unwilling to allow the engineering soldiers under Marin to dig earth and fill the pit, so Frederick III mobilized the archers, climbed up the wall of the earth wall with a ladder, and shot down, mainly shooting those digging.
However, Marin had long been prepared for this. He arranged a lot of musketeers under the fence, just waiting for the opponent to show his head ...
Sure enough, when there was an archer's head on the earth wall, there was a "bang ---" gunshot, and many Bossa coalition archers fell off the wall.
However, Frederick III was not very nervous. Because it is now more than four o'clock in the morning, and it will be dawning for more than an hour. As long as it lasts until dawn, with the superior strength of the Bossa Allied Forces, it will certainly be able to withstand the strong attack of Marin's 20,000 troops.
Even Frederick III and Joachim I have already allowed the army to gather behind the earth wall. Just wait for the dawn and counterattack.
Now, the reason why the Bossa Allied Forces did not move much, just sent people to block the East Gate, mainly because the Bossa Allied Forces soldiers, except for some scouts, no one else had the experience of night warfare. It is obviously unwise to confront the East Frisian army, which is good at night combat, at night. Therefore, the strategy of the Bossa Allied Forces is to drag the time until dawn, and then fight.
Over time, the two trenches outside the eastern wall of the Bossa Allied Forces Battalion have been filled with excavated soil by engineers from the East Frisian Militia who dug hard with engineer shovel.
And at 4:30, from the southwest of the Bossa Allied Forces Camp, there was a skylight ...
It turned out that after Woolf Esbrand and Saqqara took the army to the outside of the southwestern end of the Bassa camp, they found that the fence on the side of the camp was actually a wooden fence, and there was no yellow mud outside.
This is no wonder, after all, Frederick III and Joachim I did not expect that there were enemy forces in the west. Therefore, the west wall is very rough, only a wooden fence. Moreover, there was no digging outside the fence.
The reason for this is mainly because they concluded that there was no threat to the west. Moreover, this kind of military camp is only a temporary station, there is no need to make it too complicated, otherwise, it is very inconvenient to demolish.
The thick mud wall on the east side is because the military force facing Marin directly needs to strengthen its defense, so it is so complicated and strong. But there are also disadvantages in that, it is very troublesome to dismantle. If you want to pull out the wooden piles in the east wall, you must first peel off the thick mud shell before you can remove the wooden piles.
However, it is also worth it. After all, the east side is facing Marin's main army. If someone easily breaks the city wall and enters the camp at night, it is over.
On the west side, because Frederick III and Joakim I both concluded that there were no enemies, the fence was made very simple, that is, the stakes were inserted, and then nailed with planks, and then tied with a rope, it was done.
Not to mention, after using so many thick wooden sticks and nails, the average person wants to dismantle those fences, which is quite troublesome. Even if the fence is removed, the person behind the fence is already ready.
However, this time, the people of the Bossa Allied Forces encountered Woolf Esbrand. Who is Woolf Esbrand? That is a slightly European general who is good at conspiracy!
Before, Woolf Esbrandt flooded tens of thousands of Danish troops by way of breaking the dike. Coupled with the special training in Eastern tactics at Marin, naturally the method of fire attack is no stranger. No, after seeing the fence of pure wood, Woolf Esbrand immediately thought of the fire attack ...
So, when he came near the fence, Woolf Esbrand asked his men to collect firewood ...
Therefore, Woolf Esbrand and Sakala, who had planned to start the attack at 4 o'clock, were only ready to prepare at 4:30 due to the collection of firewood.
Under the command of Woolf Esbrand, the soldiers put the firewood from the haystacks of the nearby manor (strictly speaking, the soldiers brought the entire firewood haystacks) and placed them evenly. There was some grease under the corner of the wooden fence on the southwest side of the Bosa Joint Army Camp.
Then, the 18,000 reinforcements that had been in the dark, finally began to light the torches, and began to light the firewood ...
Soon, the wooden fence southwest of the Bossa Allied Forces Camp was lit with firewood. Suddenly, the fire flew into the sky southwest. And the people who were still paying attention to the northeast direction were shocked to find that-it seems that the enemy forces also came in the southwest direction ...
The fence made of wood is very afraid of fire. After a while, the wooden fence at the southwestern end of Daying did not fall apart. Woolf Esbrand and Saqqara ordered the soldiers to use their spears to pluck away the remaining parts of the burnt wooden fence. Then the road was clear. A large number of reinforcements entered the camp from behind the burnt wooden fence, and stood in front of the stunned 30,000 Bossa coalition army ...
Then, there was a brief embarrassment in the scene. The 30,000 people of the Bossa Allied Forces are a bit stunned, and Woolf Esbrand and Zakala and the reinforcements they lead are also a bit stunned-why don't these people see us running? We are enemies ...
Woolf. Esbrand responded the fastest ~ www.novelhall.com ~ He let the musketeers who lit the matchlock stepped forward, "cracked" a shot, and shot the top group of people. Zhuang ... Suddenly, screams came one after another ...
Finally, the stunned Saxon and Brandenburg people reacted-damn, this is a murderous enemy ...
Then these unarmed minions finally screamed and started to wander around, their eyes full of terror ...
However, Woolf Esbrand was dumbfounded—what if it was a good attack on the enemy's battalion northward? Why are they flying around like headless flies?
Anyway, in addition to the west side of the army led by Woolf Esbrand and Saqqara, there are chaotic Bossa coalition forces everywhere, making Woolf Esbrand a headache. ...
At this time, Saqqara reacted, he proposed:
"Otherwise, let us point them and let them flee north?"
"How to instruct?"
"Shout ..."
"Ok……"
Then, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield-a group of fighters of the main forces of the Principality of Schleswig with spears, while driving the spears of the Bossa Allied forces with spears, shouted:
"Flee north! Yes, north! I ran you wrong and stabbed you ..."
Of course, they are not just talking, but really stabbing people. Some people, like headless flies, fled north on the spot because they did n’t follow the command, fluttering screams, and blood was also scattered on the ground ...
Driven by the violent drove of these German spearmen, the 30 thousand Bossa coalition army and civilians finally merged into a torrent and rushed northward ...
