"Woooooooooo!" A horn sound so loud that it penetrated the sky shocked everyone. The grand duke and many noble lords are all covered in armor, with elite soldiers standing at the head of the city. Orina and Carmon, also wearing the armor of the Knights, took the dismounted knights to guard several important city gates and key weak lines of defense.
It can be seen how reluctant these knights are. After all, for the knights, apart from the honor and loyalty of the second place, the most important thing is their warhorse. To ask them to abandon their war horses and fight on foot like those soldiers, there is more or less resistance in their hearts. However, in such a solemn atmosphere at the moment, it is not easy for them to protest against the lord they are loyal to.
"Woooooooo..." There was another horn sound coming from the opposite side. However, the voice was obviously much lower this time, and before many soldiers could react, a group of knights suddenly appeared from the middle of the tide-like army on the opposite side. Holding a totem banner with the head of a roaring bear and a two-headed flying dragon. That's the flags representing Malta and Ai Xinzhe. The team came to a stop where the bow and arrow just couldn't shoot, two flags were planted in the dirt, and the leaders were an old man and a young man in gorgeous armor.
Archduke Victoria had never seen Philip and Lex. But that didn't stop him from knowing that the two flags meant the king on the battlefield. The Grand Duke was silent for a while, before turning around and going down the city wall without saying a word. He and the kings and knights behind him mounted the war horse and carried the flag of the Principality of Kasmi, the Eagle Flag. came to the city gate.
"Grand Duke, be careful. Philip, everyone calls him an oath-breaker in private. If we suddenly attack when we meet, we will be finished." With fifty members of the King's Knights, they just approached the city gate. , Marquis Camon, who was riding a steed, stepped forward nervously to advise the Grand Duke. The Grand Duke glanced at the very nervous Marquis Camon, and showed a rare mild smile: "Don't worry, my Marquis. No matter how Philip doesn't pay attention to honor, if you attack me in this situation, such an unsightly method is one of the reasons. Come down, the Engellan Empire will never let it go." After that, the six huge city gates up and down slowly rose after a group of soldiers turned the wheel on the city tower.
Four steel mesh gates inside and outside, and two solid oak gates half a meter thick in the middle, were slammed into the city gate with a rumbling sound. Without a word, the Grand Duke led the knights out on the horses first. As soon as you leave the city gate, which is like a tunnel, you will be greeted by the smell of rancidity and blood.
The warhorse in chain armor and robes swayed its hoofs uneasy, and the big duke riding on the horse stared at him. He could clearly see not far away, in the battle trench dug at the suggestion of Marquis Carmon, countless corpses, including me Fang warriors and local swordsmen are covered with rusty spears and crossed swords, shields and arrows in their flesh. The flesh of the corpse was rotting, a sickening dark green, and flies and maggots swam in the mound.
But all this did not surprise the Grand Duke. What he was surprised was that these huge corpses could not only cause a plague, but even fill up the trenches used to block the towers! That means that the enemy towers can run over the trenches filled by these corpses and attack their own city walls!
Looking at a lot of pen and ink, in fact, it is just an instant. The team ran towards the two kings in the distance without stopping. The Grand Duke just stared at the corpses solemnly without saying a word. Yes, he had already made a decision in his heart. When the war slows down, we must burn all these corpses with kerosene! Because this not only provides a bridge for the enemy, but also may bring them a plague that can cause upheaval! In fact, soldiers have already reported this situation before.
However, there were not many corpses at that time, and because the trenches were too deep, it was difficult to retrieve the corpses inside. So they don't care. But in Philip's more than ten consecutive days of fighting with human lives, this battle ditch, which he thought would not be a problem, turned out to be full! The number even reached the point where they couldn't clean up and bury them and could only burn them with fire!
The archduke with a frown brought the knights to the front of the two kings. The knight knew the rules very well and stopped at ten meters. The same goes for the guards on the opposite side. The Grand Duke glanced back at the majestic and tall city wall in the distance, as well as the castle that was looming in the distance, pointing to the sky. He looked back again and looked at the two enemies who had been fighting with him for nearly a month, Ai Xinzhe and Malta. The king of the monastery hurried forward.
The three giants gathered together, the youngest, and the new king Lex, who was conspiring against him, greeted them first. I saw him smile slightly, and took off the helmet with the crown inlaid with gold on the top of his head, revealing his elegant purple hair. Showing a smile that he thought was charming, he immediately put his helmet on his chest and said with the etiquette of seeing his elders: "The first-class grand duke of the Engelian Empire, Victoria. Ai Xinzhe's new king Lex, Apan Lagang is very good. It is an honor to meet you on the battlefield, please accept my respect for you."
The Archduke stopped his horse and looked slightly surprised by Lex's behavior. Although he heard that it was the son of a marquis who rebelled against Ai Xinzhe and became the king, he was still a little surprised by Lex's age. And he was shocked. The old man whose hair was starting to turn white also took off the helmet with the crown, revealing his long black and white hair, and nodded in greeting: "Good to meet, Grand Duke Casmi. I am the king of the Kingdom of Malta, Philip, Lombet. As King Aisinzhe, I was invited to the reinforcements." The Grand Duke nodded, took off his helmet and put his right hand over his left chest and said, "I am honored to be able to meet you two kings. But now we are at war. Among them, I would like to know what else we both have to say."
"Don't be so cautious, Grand Duke, you have seen this mighty army. You are sure to lose, why are you still fighting to the end? As long as you are willing to cut off the three provinces and hand them over to me and King Philip, we will still be the same as before. The previous kings have been equal for hundreds of years." Lex vowed to say so, but in exchange, the grand duke couldn't help sneering: "Your Majesty King Ai Xinzhe, you used to be the son of a marquis, and you violated your loyalty and killed the monarch. , together with foreign countries to strike the balance of the three kingdoms surrounding the forest of monsters. Hehe, pardon me for the collision, you are simply ashamed of your surname, Apan Lagang. Compared with the former king who was murdered by you dirty and despicable, you are far away Far from his wisdom."
"Humph!" After all, Lex was young and vigorous, and being so cynically ridiculed by the Grand Duke was already extremely angry. But at this moment, Philip on the side immediately stopped Lex's possible impulse, looked at the archduke calmly and said, "Maybe I have a bad reputation, and as the duke of the Engran Empire, I have no intention of angering you. And a mighty empire. But you must know that when my soldiers storm your fortresses, kick open the doors of your people, and plunder the animals of wealth, it will be too late to regret."
"Hahahahaha!" As soon as Philip's voice fell, the Grand Duke suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed! Ignoring Lex's astonishment and Philip's gloomy expression, he nodded happily and said, "If you are sure of winning, do you still need to call me out to talk? Dear Philip and Lex, your two noble kings. Such a move, on the contrary, tells me that my imperial reinforcements will arrive soon. You panic! Like a mouse in a sewer that panics when it sees the sun! Hahahaha!"
The Grand Duke let out a violent laugh, then suddenly closed his smile, pointed at Philip and Lex and said, "Tell me with a sword and a shield, stupid coward!" After that, he turned around and rode away. He hurried back to the city gate with the fifty knights who were waiting behind him. And the six gates in the city gate were also rumblingly closed.
"Hmph, Grand Duke Victoria... I thought he was a third-rate noble who had inherited the merits of his ancestors, but he still has some eyesight." Philip, who also turned around and rushed back to the army, had a strange smile on his face, and muttered to himself softly. . But Lex, who was beside him, said with a sad face: "The scout reported that the troops of the Engelian Empire have arrived at the Dorkena River, and they will arrive here in ten days. In ten days, we will be able to capture the The fortress?" "Take it? No, no, my dear King Lex."
Hearing Lex's concern, Philip shook his fingers, and the strange smile on his face became more and more strange: "Just taking it down will not satisfy me at all. I want to completely destroy this unsightly stone city, and there will be no bricks and bricks. Completely crushed on this plain!"
And just when Philip was determined to launch a fierce attack, a scroll stamped by Philip was sent to the second avatar Donald. Unsurprisingly, Philip asked Donald's first attack as the frontline commander, leading the first wave of the fortress with his soldiers. Although the words on the scroll are euphemistic and somewhat sensational, it is said that it is heartache for the collapse of Donald's army.
But everyone understands that Philip is the order book for Donald to die. But Donald's clone, controlled by Paladin, didn't care at all. Contrary to what the messenger expected to be furious, Donald just silently accepted the order book and nodded very indifferently: "I'll prepare the armor and light up the soldiers."
But what I thought in my heart was: "This is just right, you can take the opportunity to be captured by the first avatar Alfred, and then the next battle has nothing to do with your avatar. If the duchy wins, at least he won't be sent to death again. If the Principality loses, he can also continue the relationship between the clone and the main body, secretly approach some powerful nobles and assassinate them in exchange for military merit. The big deal is death, Fangzheng is just a clone. "
Thinking like this, Donald's clone stood up, and on his ugly face baptized by war, a gloomy smile that was very similar to Paladin's appeared.
