Chapter 224: Eisenberg Battle 4

The siege went on fiercely for days.

The power backing Konrad was unexpectedly strong, and the gates didn’t open easily.

Eisenberg had a lot of artillery and other weapons, and the number of Gigants was more than 100 from what the spies had reported.

However, the army had to occupy the gateway city and provide morale for the army that went full on offensive.

Luke and the Red Wolf Mercenaries, who were asked to wait on the first day were made to join the battle from the 4th day.

Luke, converted 2 of his Gigants for siege purpose just as he had learned from the Volga army attack. The canons were put on the gloves of the Gigants, and the infantry was burned to attack the walls.

Eisenberg’s walls were surely many times higher than the Torlot Fortresses border, so they couldn’t do much.

Which was why Luke added another tactic which included magic.

“Stone Edge!”

Drrrrk!

Large pillars of stone began to rise closer to the wall.

Seeing that, the commanders of the Konrad kingdom laughed at him.

“You idiots. To attack something, you need to do it from above…”

Their wish to ridicule soon disappeared.

The Red Wolf Mercenaries Giant’s climbed over the wall, as they slowly stepped off the rising stone pillars.

“Break, break the stone pillars! Stop them from reaching the top!”

Pupu!

Sadly for the Konrad kingdom soldiers, fires began to shower from the Gigants.

The troops placed on one side of the wall evaporated as bombardments flew in their direction, and the Red Wolf Mercenaries who climbed on the stone pillars built bridgehead.

“Dammit! Drive those enemies away!”

“Stop them! Don’t get pushed behind!”

Troops from the Konrad kingdom swarmed, but the Red Wolf Mercenaries took them down.

As riders like Luke and Philip defeated the enemy and prevented the shells which were coming their way, Rakan knights showed their dedication.

In addition, even though former Garlic mercenary, the men of Gavel too fought well.

Sometimes it was dangerous, but every time a command from Luke fell, they worked very hard.

“If you lose the bridgehead, you will be training for three days and nights!”

“Huh!”

The staggered and exhausted mercenaries, the moment they heard the command, they soon began to use up their full strength.

Thinking about the hell-like training they were being given, no enemy could frighten them.

As the Red Wolf Mercenaries secured the bridgehead on the walls, Eisenberg began to change.

It wasn’t able to withstand the attacks from the anti-revolutionary army, which was pushing them day and night, and on the 5th day, the gate finally broke.

“Wah! The gate is open! All! Ahead!”

At the orders of the commanders of the army, the Gigants entered the castle city followed by horsemen and soldiers.

Luke and the other Red Wolf Mercenaries who played the biggest role in the siege marched into the town to establish whole new merits.

“Sire. We must retreat.”

At the words of the lieutenant, Marquis Parker nodded with a disturbed expression.

Fights were taking place on the streets and all over the city.

Enemies and allies were all tangled up in their own fights.

The allies were holding up, but over time, it would be cleared with the overwhelming forces of the imperial army.

‘In other words, there is no time to exit.’
