Adrick was furious, he vomited blood and fell down, and someone around him immediately grabbed him and supported him. Immediately, they gathered their hands and found a horse to tie the general to the horse's back, and the team retreated.
There was a fierce battle just now, and the defenders would not retreat. It was all supported by the belief in the reinforcements and counterattacks that Adric said. At this moment, once Adric fell, these reinforcements were going to retreat, and there were only those who were left in the defenders. The people below immediately became very weak, and many people looked at the corpses all over the ground and cried, and their hearts were unwilling.
Someone couldn't help shouting: "What are you retreating! We have lost so many people, and we have supported us until now. We only waited for reinforcements to counterattack, but we retreated like this. Are we worthy of the dead brothers!"
Some people raised their heads, and immediately someone shouted out, and the group was indignant for a while. Although there were only a few people who fought with Adrick for the rest of their lives, these people shouted one after another, and the sound made the reinforcements and cavalry feel a sense of guilt. , I just feel that if this moment really retreats, it will be really cowardly.
It's just that the officer who led the team was very strict and stopped the commotion of his subordinates. After the rectification was completed, he led the people to retreat along the street and headed towards the palace.
Adrick Fang was in a coma with anger and vomiting blood. He woke up faintly on the back of a horse. Once he woke up, he found that his team was retreating. Who ordered the back! Stop! Stop!"
There was his guard next to him, and he was already injured, both big and small, so he hurried up to weep and said: "Sir, we can't hold back, we have too few people, and the group behind can't come up, we are only a small group of people. Can go back…”
"Can't retreat!" Adric gritted his steel teeth, took a deep breath, and forcibly sat upright on the horse's back, shouting loudly: "Stop! Stop!!"
What kind of identity is he, even if he is seriously injured, once he speaks, the leader of the team does not dare to disobey, the team slows down, and then stops on the road.
The officer also came up to persuade: "Sir, it's not that we are afraid of death, it's really an order, I must take you back! You are the current pillar of Osgilia, and I must not let you have anything..."
"Bah! The city defense has been lost, what's the use of me, Adric, even if I go back alive! Bullshit! It's bullshit!" The night attack was hurried, and they have not yet established a firm foothold! I am afraid that their brigade will not advance until the dawn of the day! We just lost a Wellington gate! The other defense areas of the city defense are still in our hands The defense areas of the Arc de Triomphe and other city gates are still there with garrisoned troops! If we retreat so hastily, there will be chaos in the city, and many troops in the front line city defense have no time to retreat! Are those brothers in the army on the city defense just like this? They left it to the rebels! Waiting in a hurry, such a long line of defense, how can there be time to retreat one by one! This kind of order is just shit!! I can't retreat! Assemble and assemble, so that you can fight with the rebels in the city!"
What else did the officer say, Adric was furious, raised his hand and pointed at him and shouted: "I am the Minister of Military Affairs, and I have the final say in all military affairs in the city! At this moment, there is a great urgency, if you talk nonsense again, I will kill you immediately. !"
The officer's expression changed. Although he was still anxious, he finally closed his mouth.
Adrick immediately shouted: "Where's the knife! Where's my knife!"
His sword had already been damaged in the fierce battle just now, and the guards around him immediately stuffed a saber into his hand. Adric forcibly supported it, took the sword, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, retreat. No! There are still so many of our troops on the city defense. Once we retreat first, they will be trapped to death by the rebels one by one! Let's fight back! Gather the defenders of the city defense, and we still have a fight! The empire has been for thousands of years. I don’t believe that the National Games will end tonight! Everyone, if you have the courage, come back and fight to the death! I, Adric, are deeply favored by the empire, only Adric who died in battle, and there is no Adric who retreats and flees!!”
As the mainstay of the city, Adrick has such a high prestige in the army. Tonight, he experienced battles and battles and was seriously injured. The people who fought with him for the rest of their lives shouted: "That's right! It's just one life! To die for the country, the true character of a soldier! Your lord, take us to fight! We will never back down as you point with your long sword!"
The crowd below was high-pitched, and even the cavalry reinforcements who later cheered.
Adrick immediately ordered, and all the men turned around: "We are not going to the palace! All of them, go to the Arc de Triomphe! Go gather the army and fight the rebels to the death!"
At the moment, there were only more than 200 horses beside him, and half of them were injured, but fortunately, the vanguard of the rebel army was repelled by the fierce battle, and many unowned horses were captured. The army immediately went in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe.
At this moment, it was the second half of the night, and it was not far from the dawn. After a night of fierce battle, there was still the sound of fighting in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe, and the slings on both sides were still roaring. people. It seems that everyone is faintly reacting, and there will be a big change tonight.
There were originally hundreds of patrol riders in the city responsible for maintaining order, but tonight the city defense was attacked, the army was urgently mobilized, many patrol riders were gathered away, and the fierce battle in the direction of the city defense, coupled with the fire at the city gate, there was internal chaos. , some chaos has gradually appeared in the city.
Adrick led his people all the way towards the Arc de Triomphe, and along the way, he encountered many people on the street who were arguing with fire and incitement. In times of chaos, there were always some people with a heart and soul who took advantage of the fire to rob, and some land hooligans and the like also took the opportunity to make a commotion. When I woke up, at night, some neighborhoods were already in chaos, houses were set on fire, and many people started arson and looting in the dark. Most of the patrolling horses in the city were dispatched, and the remaining people were far from enough to maintain order. In some places, the soldiers on patrolling were trapped in chaos.
Adrick led people all the way, and rode his horse on the long street. Whenever there was a commotion on the street, he ordered the cavalry to kill him.
Along the way, some of the robbers who had been looting encountered Adric's cavalry on the street were immediately washed away. Adrick sent two cavalry with loud voices to rush to the front, galloping all the way, all the way Loudly shouted: "General Adric once again! The troops along the way quickly join the team!!"
Sure enough, the galloping along the way, and gathered some chaotic soldiers, less than three or five cavalry, more than ten cavalry.
Running all the way down, Adric's team gradually expanded a lot. He is the commander of the city and is naturally familiar with the terrain. Along the way, he passed through various city gates and city defenses, gathering the defenders in various defense areas.
That night, there was an earth-shattering fight at the Arc de Triomphe, and the order to mobilize troops has been going back and forth many times. Some of the defenders of the other city gates have already discovered the fire in the direction of Wellington City Gate, and some have already sent cavalry to inquire. The news was just that he did not dare to move without military orders in the chaos. Adrick brought someone in person, and immediately ordered to gather the troops, abandon the defense area, and gather the defenders of the defense area, all of them with Go to the Arc de Triomphe.
This way, when the army was gathered, the speed slowed down, but after running three or four city gates, Adrick's men had gathered no less than three or five thousand people, but most of them were infantry, and the team was like a snowball. grow bigger.
※※※
In the middle of the night, Ruhl had already turned over and got up. He asked the servants at home to carry the ladder, climbed to the roof by himself, and looked in the direction of the city defense.
The roar of fierce battles in the direction of the Arc de Triomphe in the distance had been blaring for a long time, Fatty's face was gloomy, and he also felt a wave of unease in his heart.
"Damn, this eyelids are twitching, and something bad is bound to happen. Those bastards outside the city, in this ghostly cold weather, don't have a good time to get under the covers and climb out to hit the Arc de Triomphe. Do you think they have a long life?"
Ruhl stood on the roof, and the cold wind made him shiver a few times. Although the servants in the house around him kept trying to persuade him, the fat general refused to get off the roof and stood on the roof in the middle of the night. The more intense the roaring sound of fighting.
In the second half of the night, fire gradually appeared in the direction of many blocks in the city, and the fat man finally changed his face and slapped his thigh: "Damn! It seems that there is an internal response! It should be internal and external, that old boy from El Salvador is going to be a ghost! Damn, just what is he doing? Ghost, I can't guess it!"
Ruhl was restless, and went back and forth on the roof: "It's not right! It's not right! It's really wrong! I want to learn how I feel, I'm afraid that Osgilia will have bad luck this time!"
Fatty said to himself here, and finally his heart sank, and he didn't have time to climb the ladder, so he jumped directly from the roof and landed in the yard. , and shouted loudly: "Come on! Come on! Go prepare the horse! Prepare Lao Tzu's warhorse! Go and bring out Lao Tzu's weapons and armor! This general is going to kill people!!"
The servants in his family have followed him for many years. Under Fatty's orders, they dispersed and went to work. After a while, someone carried Fatty's armor and weapons. The two servants served Fatty and put on the heavy armor. , Fatty frowned, his face gloomy, but suddenly raised his head and saw the faint fire in another direction in the distance.
In this night, if there is a fire anywhere, it is really eye-catching.
Seeing the light of the fire, the fat man was instantly shocked. He was wearing the heavy armor that looked like a tortoise shell. His face became more and more difficult to look, and he jumped again and again: "No, no! It's in the direction of Wellington City Gate! Damn, such a big fire, I'm afraid the city gate will be lost! Damn it! Adric, what are you doing, the main general? Eat it! What kind of bullshit city defense is arranged!!"
The fat man screamed anxiously, flew down and let it go, rushed to the warhorse brought by the servant, took off a horn, and puffed out his cheeks and blew it violently.
He was blowing the emergency rallying horn in the army. Fatty stood in the yard and blew it for a while, and then he heard a commotion in the backyard. After a while, seven or eight men rushed out.
The seven or eight people who rushed out all looked solemn, some were wearing leather jackets, some were just wearing ragged sackcloth, but all of them were armed with weapons, some with swords, some with knives, and some with knives. Carrying the edge hammer, he rushed out and gathered around the fat man in a moment. Although it seemed to be chaotic, everyone was full of sturdy aura!
Most of these people were wrapped in bandages, some with their heads wrapped like cloth balls, some with their legs and feet, some with their shoulders, and some clearly limping when they came out. Everyone has serious injuries.
Ruhl watched these people come to his side, and shouted attentively: "Something happened in the city! Everyone, do you have the courage to fight again!"
Although these people were all wounded, they all straightened their necks and shouted: "How dare you not! We have passed through thousands of troops, and you are too damn contemptuous of people when you say it!"
Luer laughed wildly and shouted: "Go and say hello to all the brothers at home! I still have some armor and weapons in the warehouse of my house, let everyone share it! I blew the horn three times, and all the people are assembled. If anyone is slow, he will be punished by military law. !"
These people responded with a bang, and ran out from the yard.
Fatty stood on the spot, counting the time silently in his heart, then raised the horn and blew it again.
It was only the second time that the assembly horn was blown, and many people were already pouring in from the gates next to the yard. These people are all fully armed, wearing armor or leather armor, and the weapons in their hands are also different. Some have spears, some have swords, and some have no weapons in their hands, so they don’t know where they came from. He chopped off a table leg and copied it in his hand.
After the second trumpet was blown, more than a hundred people had already gathered in the courtyard.
These people are all murderous. More than a hundred people gathered in the yard, but no one was noisy. Hei Yaya gathered in front of the fat man, and quickly lined up to stand up. This is clearly the kind of suffocating suffocating that rolls in and out of the sea of corpse and blood, and you don't know how many times you can experience it. These more than a hundred people stood in front of Fatty, but they seemed like more than a hundred sharp swords unsheathed, with suffocating aura!
But if you look closely, most of these elites who are so sturdy that people dare not look at them, but most of them have remnants of soldiers, everyone is wrapped in bandages, and many people have red bloodstains on the bandages. There are even people who are missing limbs and feet, and even some people who are missing arms and legs. A man standing in front of the fat man has his entire left arm cut off at the shoulders, and a thick bandage is wrapped around his shoulders, but in the fat man. In front of him, he straightened his waist, and at night, he looked like a long spear standing in front of him!
Of the hundreds of soldiers in the yard, none of them were able-bodied!
These people are actually the rest of the original Rodriguez cavalry. On that night when the Rodriguez cavalry fought bloody battles in the city and the entire army was wiped out, Fatty finally rushed in with only a few hundred cavalry to protect Crown Prince Garcia. In the city, among the hundreds of horsemen remaining, 30% of them died of serious injuries later, and some were slightly injured, and after treatment, they were recharged into the city defense.
The remaining hundred or so people were all elite veterans who were seriously injured and disabled after the fierce battle that night, and could no longer join the army and had to retire. Some of these people are missing limbs, some have broken legs, and some are seriously injured and bedridden for several months.
The Roderian cavalry was not originally an army stationed in the imperial capital. The soldiers in the army were not natives of the imperial capital. These soldiers who were seriously injured and disabled but had no choice but to retire had no home in the imperial capital. These people are gathered in their own homes to take care of.
At this moment, under Fatty's summons, although it was midnight, and these people were all disabled, they assembled quickly, but in just a short while, they were all equipped and lined up in front of Fatty!
The fat man took a deep breath, his face was ashen, he rolled over and jumped onto a stone in the yard, shouting loudly: "Brothers! I'm not talking nonsense anymore! There's an accident in the city! Those bastards outside are afraid they've already entered. Come to the city! I know that everyone has shed enough blood and sacrificed enough for the empire! But tonight, I Ruhl had to call you here, just because tonight I still need You can shed some more blood!! You are no longer soldiers of the Empire, but you are still Byzantine men! I just ask you one thing, now that those rebels are in the city, do you dare to go out and kill again even though I am old? !!"
Fatty's angry voice spread throughout this small yard, the voice fell, but no one spoke, these majestic but wounded men, everyone looked up at Fatty with a strange look, as if all I feel that what the fat man just said is really absurd.
After being silent for a while, the one-armed man standing in front of the fat man suddenly shouted, "Sir, what nonsense are you talking about! We Rodriguez cavalry, from the moment we put on this skin, where is there another thought in our mind? The word 'afraid'? You ask us if we dare, did we drink too much last night! Hahahaha!!"
With a burst of laughter, more than a hundred people in the yard burst into laughter, and the laughter was full of majesty!
Among the laughter, someone shouted sharply from below: "Although I have one hand missing, I can still kill several rebels with one hand!"
"My brother died in front of me a few months ago. He killed nine rebels that day, and I only killed six! I was worried that after I died, I saw his face in the ground! Haha, my lord, tonight It's a good opportunity! I just killed enough rebels and made up enough numbers!!"
"Sir, give me a horse, I was the best riding man in the whole camp!!"
"My lord, although I am lame, give me a rope to tie my horse. When I charge, if I am half a point behind, I am not a Rodriguez!!"
Seeing the excitement of the crowd below, Luer only felt that the blood was almost sprayed to his forehead, and he roared: "Okay! All line up! Although I'm going out to kill!!"
More than a dozen men immediately rectified one after another, and quickly listed a queue. The one-armed man in front was the one-armed man, shouting loudly: "Rodria!!"
"Go forward!!!!" In the yard, more than a hundred people shouted in unison!
