While Hughes led a team of hundreds of suicide squads to stop the French counterattack, Harrison, deputy captain of the suicide squad, rushed into the city gate with the suicide 2 team, and pressed down the 30 French soldiers who were in a room in the city gate, and beat them up...
But when they successfully solved the 30 French soldiers in the city gate, they came to the iron gate and were stunned - not only were there a bolt on the iron gate, but also an iron lock...
"Fa...Ke!" Harrison suddenly became depressed.
Balk, who followed them, was speechless, but Balk quickly reminded:
"Quickly, turn off the pockets of these soldiers, especially the officers dressed in the squad leader!" Since it is an iron lock, there must be a key. Generally speaking, the keys are on the head near the city gate.
However, they were disappointed...
There were no keys on the 30 soldiers in the city gate. According to a living French soldier, the keys were in the hands of the company captain on the city gate tower...
"Damn! I'm in trouble now! Do you want to kill the city gate tower and find the company captain?" Harrison was a little desperate.
But that was impossible. When they came to the city gate tower and came down, the main force of the French army was probably coming.
At this moment, Balk took out a steel wire from his arms... No, it was a wire saw...
Barke solemnly said to Harrison:
"Person Captain Harrison, please buy me some time. I need two minutes to see open this iron lock!"
The iron lock is not big, and the French did not expect the iron lock to be destroyed by the enemy. What they wanted was to use the iron lock to drag for a while until reinforcements arrived. Obviously, under normal circumstances, the French's purpose was achieved.
Harrison looked at the iron lock sadly (there was a torch lighting in the city gate hole), nodded, and then pulled out the sailor's scimitar and said:
"Brothers, follow me to help the captain and the others, we must hold the enemy for more than two minutes!"
Then, Harrison and his men rushed back to the direction of the inside exit of the city gate opening without hesitation...
At this time, the battle was very fierce at the exit of the inner gate. The French also knew the importance of the city gate, so they rushed to death. The most terrifying thing was that 50 plate-armored infantry came...
For the convenience of walking, Hughes and his 200 people wore not very heavy chain mail. Although they had shields, they were the most ordinary small round shield. In terms of protection, there was a big gap between them and French plate armor infantry.
The most important thing is that the French plate armor infantry are all knights and have more than ten years of martial arts. Moreover, they not only wear a full set of plate armor, they have high protection power, and the weapons in their hands are also very powerful two-handed swords...
In terms of infantry battles, this kind of plate armor infantry wearing full-body plate armor and holding big swords with both hands is an invincible existence in melee battles...
Fortunately, most of the 500 plate-armed infantry in the city were deployed near the North Gate, and there were only 50 people on the West Gate. But if the time delayed for a long time, the other 450 plate-armed infantry would definitely gather at the West Gate.
The British suicide squadrons were already very powerful. They held shields in their left hand to resist the attacks of French soldiers. The sailor scimitar in their right hand flexibly attacked the enemy. Generally, French soldiers could hardly resist the attacks of British suicide squadrons. They could not break through the defense of the round shield, but were easily cut or stabbed by British sailor scimitars.
But the 50 French Plate Armor infantry were even more powerful. They were not afraid of the attacks of British sailors and scimitars. The big swords they waved with both hands could even break the wooden small round shields of British suicide squadrons. Once the small round shield was broken, British suicide squadrons could only face slaughter...
"ah--"
"Well--"
...
Under the strong attack of French plate-arm infantry, the suicide squad began to suffer a large number of casualties...
Harrison was anxious when he saw this and shouted:
"Brothers, hold on, and when the door opens, our elite accomplices will come in!"
The wire saw was still sawing the iron lock. Two minutes passed, but the lock had not been cut off. Balk's head was covered in cold sweat, but he couldn't hurry, because the more anxious the more the more it was, the easier it was to make mistakes...
It took a full 5 minutes before the big iron lock was sawed off. Then, Balk called more than a dozen British suicide squadrons in the back row and worked hard to open the Sigate cast iron gate of Calais Fortress...
After a "crunch, crunch" sound, the West Gate was finally opened...
At this time, three thousand elite troops had gathered in front of the west gate...
"Brothers, rush!" Commando leader Morson rushed in with a big shield and a one-handed sword...
The group of sword and shield soldiers of the commando team are different from the suicide squads on the inside of the city gate. For the sake of easy movement, the suicide squads wear chain mail. It is light and has poor protection. Moreover, the small round shield they use is not very strong. It can be used to resist ordinary swords, but it is difficult to deal with heavy weapons. Just so, the big sword with both hands is more restrained by the small round shield.
Most of the commando soldiers of Molson wore half-body armor and iron helmets. Their large shields were also covered with iron sheets. Their function was to resist the 500 plate armor infantry in the city...
Although there are no pine-armored pants, the defense on the upper body is not bad. Moreover, people are wearing chain-armored pants on their legs, not afraid of slashing and cutting or cutting, but only afraid of stabbing.
Plate armor pants are too unfavorable for movement, so the commando soldiers all chose the chain armor pants. Although the protection is not as good as Plate armor pants, it is conducive to running. After all, they are the offensive side and need to advance. Unlike the defensive side, just keep the position and don’t worry about inconvenience in movement…
...
When Molson rushed into the inside of the city gate with the main force of the sword and shield soldiers, more than 60 people had died in Hughes's suicide squad. He himself had his arm cut off.
After seeing Morson's sword and shield soldiers rushing into the battlefield, Hughes smiled and with the help of Harrison, he took his men to retreat aside, leaving the battlefield to Morson's sword and shield soldiers.
Then, Morson's sword and shield soldiers and French plate armored infantry collided with passionate and powerful...
"Bang--" The French Plate Infantry's big swords slashed the sword and shield soldiers' big shields, making a loud noise. Unfortunately, the shield was covered with iron and was much stronger than the small round shield of the suicide squad just now. Therefore, the French Plate Infantry's attack was ineffective, and it only shocked the sword and shield soldiers' arms holding the shield to numb.
But the one-handed sword in the right hand of the sword and shield soldier stabbed out and stabbed the French plate armor infantry, which was also a sound of metal collision. Obviously, it had no effect...
Seeing this, Morson immediately ordered loudly:
"Change the shield in your right hand and hit them to death!"
Then, the sword and shield soldiers selected from the Fourth Legion of the Beihai Kingdom changed hands neatly and quickly, and then held the shield in his right hand and crashed towards the French plate armor infantry...
Molson's sword and shield soldiers had 800 soldiers, and there were only 50 plate-armed infantry on the opposite side. How could they be the opponent? Under the repeated collision of hundreds of sword and shield soldiers, 50 French plate-armed infantry retreated one after another, and many people were knocked to the ground. Then, they were rushed up by the commando and held down the uniform...
