Chapter 112: Off with their heads(2)

Hey guys if you would like to further support me , read my other work ''Transmigrated in another world as a magicless person''

---------- Defender's POV: 

Sighs escaped throughout the army as they witnessed the advance of the French units. They had prepared as best they could for the defense of the city and wondered if what they did was enough to let the city live another day. Countless wooden trucks were attached to the gate; however, for how long would they hold out before they would inevitably fall?

As the French army was advancing, the defenders noticed something strange. It seemed that while the units on the battering ram and on the siege tower were well-trained troops, the troops on the ladders were fighting basically completely naked, for they had no armor or shield. Such things were not missed by Corrado, who understood that those attackers were the farmers that the French had forcefully employed.
