Regardless of the admiration of the recruits, it is on the side of the leaders of both sides.
”What about the casualties?” Archduke Andre asked the disciples of Keller around him. He was specialized in statistics. In the face of Prince Andre's question, he nodded calmly. ”Twenty five casualties, ten deaths, were chopped by the Anglo Saxon flying axe standing on the ladder. Five others were seriously injured and ten were slightly injured. All of them have been arranged to rest.”
”Recruits are recruits.” Prince Andrea shook his head and sighed, ”if it were an experienced soldier, these twenty-five would not have died.”
”You can't say that, Dagong.” Hebvel, a student of Kellar statistics, shook his head and said with a smile, ”isn't it possible to train soldiers in this way?”
”Ha ha, I'm too serious.” Said Prince Andrey, laughing, shaking his head.
”I need more siege equipment than a thin ladder!” ”More! Otherwise, we can't rush up the wall at this angle! ”
The 60 degree city wall is inclined. What's more different from the ancient Chinese city walls is that the ancient Chinese city walls were built near the water, surrounded by the city walls and surrounded by urn cities to defend the enemy There are walls on all sides. In other words, not only should the siegers disperse their forces outside the four gates and four walls, but the defenders also need a certain amount of troops to keep them. The characteristic of this kind of city is that as long as there are enough troops, the walls are high and the grain is thick, even if God comes, he will keep it for you!
Because of the flat terrain, China has developed a series of ways to defend the city, such as flooding, burning, fumigating, moat and corner hole, which are all a series of creation and art.
However, since the middle ages, the West has always been built on the mountain. This advantage is that only one side can be defended, and there is no need to worry about other aspects. On the contrary, relying on the danger of the other side, it can concentrate its forces to disperse the superiority of the enemy's besieged forces and kill them intensively.
Both sides have their own advantages. China pays attention to leeway. From another perspective, this western style city also puts itself in a dangerous position. If the city is broken, there is no way to survive. On the contrary, Chinese cities can even entangle forces to break through the encirclement or carry out beheading tactics.
This is also caused by the cultural differences between the two places.
Therefore, when Dante castle, the so-called ”iron wall” fortress, was broken, the West fell into another extreme development: the bastion.
In fact, this cultural difference is not only in the fortress.
