Chapter 638 Attack on Cream City
boom! ! !
boom! ! ! ! !
When a huge cannonball landed on the city wall, the thick wall made of butter and hard bread was instantly hit hard.
As the candy cannon exploded, the entire city wall shook instantly. However, it was still difficult for a single cannon to shake the entire city wall.
When the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the city wall remained incredibly sturdy, as if it had only suffered a minor damage.
Lieutenant Colonel Macaron, who was in charge of the attack, was not in a hurry. To ensure success, he brought a lot of ammunition with him.
"Continue the attack!!"
Bang! Bang bang bang!!!
boom! ! ! ! !
With Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's order, candy-shaped cannonballs were launched one after another, and the bombs all landed on the walls of Cream City, causing one explosion after another.
The series of explosions caused the city walls to tremble violently, and the militia soldiers standing on them were also shaken, with several falling to the ground.
Fortunately, the militiamen quickly calmed down, and then a commander wearing a top hat came out, drew his sword from his waist, and swung it forward forcefully.
"Fight back!!"
Bang!! Bang!!
The next moment, the militiamen stepped forward, raised their rifles, and fired at the enemy in the distance. However, because they were not professional soldiers, their accuracy was quite poor, and they were almost firing randomly.
But that doesn't matter anymore; their attacks were just a harassment, the real attack was just beginning.

With a series of turning sounds, several cannons mounted on the city wall began to be calibrated and soon aimed at the enemy.
"emission!"
boom! ! !
boom! ! ! !
In that instant, artillery fire erupted, and a large number of shells flew out, hitting Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's troops, causing a violent explosion in the formation.
Clearly, the defending side was retaliating against the artillery barrage that Lieutenant Colonel Macaron and his men had just launched.
Seeing the enemy's continuous artillery fire and the ever-increasing casualties on his own side, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's face instantly darkened.
"These traitors..."
Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was referring not only to the rebels, but also to the surrendered militia who, under Her Majesty's protection, lived a life of comfort and ease.
Now that the situation is critical, they have actually turned against the enemy and opened fire on the troops that came to their rescue.
This was unbearable for Lieutenant Colonel Macaron, who was always loyal to the Queen. Fortunately, he was not blinded by anger and kept his eyes fixed on the city wall, issuing attack orders again and again.
Siege is a difficult task. It is hard to take a city unless you have several times the number of troops as the enemy. After all, the defenders have the natural advantage of the city walls.
Fortunately, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron brought a considerable force with him this time. The legion he formed with several other officers on the border numbered nearly 8000 men and had nearly a hundred artillery pieces.
After Cream City was captured by the rebels, it is likely that not many people were left to defend it. This can be seen from the number of militiamen on the city walls. Most of the defending forces were militiamen, and only a few regular rebel soldiers could be seen occasionally.
Lieutenant Colonel Macaron estimated that the total number of people on the other side was only about 2 to 3, including the militia who could fight. With that number of people, he could easily take over the city with his numbers and firepower.
The only variable that worried Macaron was the tooth-toothed worms that had appeared in the battle reports earlier. It was said that these worms had routed the kingdom's main army on the battlefield; if they appeared here...
"Sir, the city gates have opened!!!"
Just as Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was pondering, his adjutant suddenly started shouting. Lieutenant Colonel Macaron looked in the direction of the shout and found that the huge city gate, which had been locked, had suddenly opened.
"This is........"
Click! Click!
As the city gate creaked open, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's pupils widened in shock, for what appeared after the gate opened was an enemy he had expected, yet did not want to face.
Tooth worms!!!
Boom! ! ! !
Toothworms are special monsters in this world. They have a fat appearance like caterpillars and their skin is an eerie dark black.
They have no eyes or limbs, only a huge mouth on their head, and the giant teeth inside that mouth are probably the only white thing on their bodies.
Their terrifying appearance, combined with their enormous size, is enough to instill fear in anyone just by standing there. Not to mention that the Tooth Worms have the special ability to kill Dessert People. Therefore, the appearance of the Tooth Worms dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Macaron side.
It wasn't over yet. On the backs of these terrifying tooth-toothed worms stood two or three biscuit soldier soldiers. Unlike ordinary biscuit soldiers, they were dark-colored, just like the rebels in the battle report.
Most importantly, they each had black sugar ropes embedded in the bodies of the tooth worms, allowing the dark biscuit soldiers to control and manipulate them.
Roar! ! ! !
Under the control of the Dark Biscuit Soldiers, the tooth-toothed worms that crawled out of the city gates roared and then began to charge towards Lieutenant Colonel Macaron's legion.
As we all know, tooth worms are not very intelligent and are easily outmaneuvered by enemies. With a well-coordinated squad, it is not impossible to hunt down a tooth worm.
However, once controlled by a Fangbug pilot, its weakness of being easily kited was overshadowed. Under the pilot's control, these Fangbugs were like armored vehicles on the battlefield, instantly charging into the crowd and rampaging everywhere.
Some soldiers tried to provoke the Toothworm and lure it away from the front lines, but as soon as the Toothworm made a move, the pilot would immediately take action to bring it back on track.
Thus, the tooth worms, which were usually easy to deal with, became extremely troublesome after having a rider. If they were a crazed beast before, they now had reason. Under targeted attacks, no one could withstand them.
"hateful....."
Looking at the tooth worms running rampant among the soldiers, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was both angry and powerless. He tried to raise his gun to shoot the dark biscuit men on the backs of the tooth worms, but these guys were very cunning. As soon as they saw him raise his gun, they immediately shrank into the tooth worms' bodies.
Anyway, they don't need to do any micromanagement. They just need to point out the general location of the tooth worms. When they encounter a crisis, they can just shrink into the tooth worms' bodies, and the enemy has no way to deal with them.
Seeing this, Lieutenant Colonel Macaron was furious, but he was powerless. Amidst the soldiers' agonizing screams, he could only utter those words:
"retreat!!!"
