Chapter 1058 -650: Fierce Attack_2
…
“This Cyan Town is indeed a paper tiger!”
In a reserve force of the siege legion, Baldwin’s face was filled with satisfaction as he stared at the battle situation ahead.
At this moment, under the suppression of a large number of arrows mixed with attacking spells, the counterattack from the city wall had already begun to weaken.
“Lord, I have just circled around the four city walls of Cyan Town and found that each wall seems to have only a few heavy infantry middle squads and archers hidden in the arrow towers for defense,” Anzem, who had just landed with his chubby body, couldn’t help but feel puzzled. “Could the enemy be hiding their true strength?”
“This Count has noticed that long ago,”
Impatiently glancing at Anzem, Baldwin lifted his eyelids and said, “If you were defending the city, would you let your soldiers die in vain under such a dense rain of arrows?”
“So that’s how it is, Lord has a point!”
Small eyes swirled on Anzem’s fat face, who then suddenly brightened up and said, “Cyan Town has only 4,000 defense troops, an average of nearly 1,000 on each city wall. It’s a normal phenomenon given our fierce attack and their fewer numbers!”
As he spoke, a smug smile appeared on the face of the fat nobleman, who then said coldly, “They don’t have enough people to fight us. Slaughtering Cyan Town is just too easy!”
“That’s right, this Count only deployed a large infantry team on each of the four city walls, accompanied by five archer middle teams and several small mage teams.”
Gazing at the four full teams around him ready to pounce, Baldwin also revealed a grim smile and said lightly, “How about that? Can you see now how correct the decision of this Count was?”
“Hehe, fighting alongside Your Excellency is the greatest honor for me.”
Anzem’s chubby face was filled with smiles and murderous intent as he said, “Now I’m looking forward to the moment when the city falls. It’s said that Princess Ariel is also a Tier 3 Nine-star expert, who will be better between us?”
“If we can take Princess Ariel’s head, it will be a great credit to us. The Crown Prince has wanted to get rid of her for a long time.”
Baldwin nodded, and a lascivious look appeared on his cold face. He winked at Anzem and said, “But before that… ”
“Your Excellency is truly extraordinary!”
Understanding the hint, Anzem quickly nodded in agreement.
After their conversation, the two shared a sinister smile, and a chilling atmosphere spread around them.
“Alright, back to the main topic. How is the matter I entrusted you with earlier progressing?”
Baldwin shifted his gaze back to the distant Cyan Town city wall and asked.
The matter he referred to was the ingenious plan for the siege he had previously discussed with Anzem.
In fact, Baldwin’s strategy was simple: first, fake attacks on all four sides, then find the weakest defense and launch a fierce assault with a superior force in the reserve team. At the same time, the remaining three sides would also attack the city simultaneously.
In this way, the overwhelmed opponent would face nothing but the city’s downfall and their demise.
Of course, during this process, some small tricks should also be used to add fuel to the fire.
And the task Baldwin assigned Anzem was to find the weakest defense in Cyan Town.

“Lord, it has been properly handled!”
Anzem leaned his greasy fat face a little closer to Baldwin and whispered, “As a small commercial hub, Cyan Town is well-connected and has city gates on all four sides. However, I have carefully observed that the defense in the north is the weakest, and most of those heavy-armored soldiers guarding the city walls have already been shot dead.”
“Then let’s start our action immediately.”
Baldwin snorted coldly and immediately called over his waiting subordinate commander.
Not long after, an even more tense horn sounded, and the total offensive began.
At almost the same time, on all four sides below the city walls, all the unused catapults were pushed out.One by one, the soldiers soaked the round stones with a special alchemical potion, creating thick, rolling smoke as they lifted them into the “scoop” of the catapults.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Accompanied by the sound of sturdy ropes being severed by sharp blades, numerous smoking stones shot into the sky, hurtling toward the direction of the city walls.
However, most of these heavy stones did not fall upon the city walls but instead crashed into the wooden abatis laid out below.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The smashed abatis sent wood chips and dirt flying all over while black smoke billowed and enveloped the surroundings.
It didn’t take long for the second and third waves of stones to completely envelope Cyan Town in thick black smoke, rendering the soldiers atop the walls unable to see anything below.
“My Lord, the enemy has launched smoke bombs!”
A powerful energy shield appeared around Joshua to block the smoke as he continued, “It seems the enemy is trying to pull a fast one!”
“No need to worry.”
Also enveloped by an energy shield, Leo Ray smiled and said, “We just need to stick to our plan. It seems the enemy is ready to walk right into our trap.”
As he finished speaking, the subordinates surrounding Leo Ray sprang into action.
…
Beneath the city walls and amidst a thick black smoke, Anzem’s excited expression was evident. He praised Baldwin, “As expected of the count, he has blinded the city’s defenders!”
“Let’s go and bring death and fire to this city that dares defy the Crown Prince.”
Baldwin smiled coldly, waved his hand, and the soldiers surrounding him rushed towards the city walls with their siege ladders.
In a flash, the earth trembled and war cries erupted from all sides as the soldiers began their simultaneous attack on the city walls, creating a deafening tumult.
As the red-eyed soldiers charged towards the city, the rain of arrows from the rear longbowmen gradually subsided.
Guarded by the heavy infantry, they marched forward to provide further support to the assaulting soldiers and to be ready to charge through the city gate.
As long as they could reach the city walls and open the gates, everything would be settled.
Looking at the situation, which seemed to guarantee victory, the soldiers could not help but feel more murderous. Once they broke into the city, countless treasures awaited them!
“Those who defy the Crown Prince are fools who face certain death! These bastards won’t stand a chance against us!”
Amidst the earth-shaking war cries, Baldwin led the charge with his long-handle axe, his ruthless killing intent surging forth.
“Soldiers, trample Cyan Town, end everything with your blades, and everything will be ours!”
Refusing to be outdone, Anzem followed suit. Flanked by his Tier 3 Magic System experts and supported by his flapping magical wings, his rotund body soared toward the city walls.
The actions of these two commanders invigorated their soldiers. With bloodshot eyes, they surged forward and scrambled up the city walls.
In no time at all, both commanders and their elite troops reached the city walls, surrounded by their respective bodyguards.
As their murderous intent surged, they led their elite troops through the thick smoke, preparing to wreak havoc. However, the sight before them left them dumbstruck.
At the rear of the wide city walls, a serene-looking young man stood quietly amidst his entourage of nearly energy-less followers and countless golem puppets all waiting for their arrival.
“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my city. Since you’re here, you might as well leave your lives behind,” the young man said, a brilliant smile on his face.
Before Baldwin and Anzem could react, overwhelming formidable auras erupted from the troops behind the young man, sweeping toward the dumbstruck duo.
