Defend the Capital [4]
The sun was setting on the horizon, casting an orange glow on the blood-ridden battlefield. The flames mingled with the orange sky blending into the atmosphere.
The first layer of the fort walls was damaged badly on the right side, while the left flank had made a gaping hole in the first layer of fortification and damaged the second one. Gates of the Capital were subjected to the battering Ram treatment as the first gate broke down, revealing the second wooden gate reinforced with iron.
Fatigue was catching up to the soldiers, as they had been fighting for hours on end without a break. Attempts to track the ambushers also bore no result as they retreated inside the port, maneuvering through the steep slopes with their light armor and agility.
Cannons on both flanks were damaged to the point of no return. Only a handful survived and ran out of the range of the fort towards the backline at Askar's command.
