It took two days from capturing the arena to using Viscount Timba to reward the army with wine and meat, and then killing the drunken soldiers. It is also a kind of torment for people. Fortunately, only two couriers came to the arena in the past two days. The first messenger brought a letter about the rotation of the two Imperial Guard squads guarding the arena. The shift will change in two days. The message from the second courier was to ask the director of the arena to send someone to receive the food supplies. The application submitted last time had been approved and they were waiting to receive it.
Both messengers were silenced in order to keep it secret, because they didn't see any acquaintances when they entered the arena and asked a few questions curiously. Although they were perfunctory, Fatty Shi had no choice but to kill them just in case. Fortunately, it happened that Viscount Timba was ordered to hold a wine and meat reward for the shameful army, which attracted the attention of everyone in the royal city. People from the Forbidden Besieged Army and the grain warehouse didn't have any suspicions about the disappearance of the two messengers. The two couriers who didn't come back most likely sneaked into the camp of the Avenging Legion to get a chance to eat and drink for themselves.
When the sky was dark, the slave gladiators who had completed the killing and scraping operations withdrew to the arena, and now they just had to wait quietly for the city of King Hamidas to be destroyed after discovering that more than 20,000 soldiers from the Avengers Legion had been slaughtered. It is enough to stand firm in the arena until the arrival of the Norton family's armed forces.
In the middle of the killing, El took advantage of the darkness when the silver moon was covered by the clouds and quietly left Hamidas King City from the drain. Get in touch with the armed force of the Norton family in the hilly area, tell them about the annihilation of the Avengers Legion, and then let them directly approach the Royal City after annihilating the Imperial Guard Legion without delay.
It can be said that after the Xuesha Legion was slaughtered, the countdown clock of the Kingdom of Haneyabad started, because apart from the Praetorian Guards, the members of the slave catchers and the mercenaries that formed the Xuesha Legion were already the most powerful in the kingdom. The deaths of more than 20,000 experienced and powerful military personnel have exhausted the kingdom's last confidence.
At 9 a.m. the next day, soldiers from the two Praetorian Guards regiments, who were going to rotate in the arena, smelled a strong smell of blood when they passed by the former Praetorian Guards camp. See what's going on. As a result, two soldiers on the wall went up to take a look and fell off the wall in fright, and reported dead, dead, all, all dead...
After forcibly opening the gate of the camp, everyone was shocked. The visual impact caused by more than 20,000 corpses made everyone who witnessed the scene horrified. The blood dyed the camp purple and black, and the smell of blood made people want to vomit...
The alarm bell in Wangcheng rang, and the silent demise of the Xuesha Legion in one night caused great panic in Wangcheng. The furious Luther III dragged Viscount Timba, who was so frightened that he was peeing like shit, out of the carriage, and asked with red eyes, is this the reward you said? Then he drew out his saber and beheaded Viscount Timba with a sword.
All the clues point to the silent arena with its gates open. Two squads of the Praetorian Guards were ordered to enter the arena to search, but they never came out after entering, as if the arena had turned into a gigantic monster. The soldiers of these two squads swallowed cleanly.
No one dares to enter the arena anymore. Now the guarding force of the royal city is very weak. In addition to the city defense brigade composed of four thousand people in the four districts, there are also two thousand guards from the royal court and the number of people guarding the material warehouse in the western city. The left-behind soldiers of the Forbidden Besieged Legion with less than 2,500 people. The current situation is very clear, that is, the arena is occupied by the enemy, and the enemy is very strong. Think about being able to annihilate the two great sword masters and nearly ten golden gladiator instructors who are sitting in the arena, and still be silent overnight. More than 20,000 soldiers of the Avengers Legion were massacred without interest. It was obvious that the enemy came prepared and hit the kingdom's vitals.
In Lorist's previous life, he heard a saying, to the effect that the side of the couch should not allow others to sleep peacefully. The same is true of Luther III's performance now. After beheading Viscount Timba, looking at the corpses everywhere, he gradually turned from anger to panic, and then from panic to panic. If he can kill more than 20,000 people overnight, will he capture the inner city of Wangting overnight and chop off his head
The more he thought about it, the more fearful Luther III wanted to mobilize all available manpower to surround him. At this time, two soldiers from the Praetorian Guards who entered the arena to search lost contact and became overwhelming Luther III to keep calm. At the last straw, he issued a series of frantic orders.
First of all, Luther III wants to recruit soldiers. All men in the royal city who are between the ages of 16 and 50 must become soldiers of the kingdom and prepare to go to the battlefield for the kingdom. On the avenue, strictly prevent the enemies from the arena from attacking the royal court at night.
Secondly, Luther III ordered slaves to clean up the camp of the Praetorian Guards, clear out all the corpses, and strip down all the defensive facilities such as the camp walls and dormitories of the Praetorian Guards, clean up the shooting area, and move the walls from the four walls. Nearly a hundred siege crossbows were laid out densely on the wall of the inner city of Wangting, aiming at the arena. It's just a pity that the walls of the auditorium on both sides of the arena are much higher than the walls of the inner city, and the siege crossbow is only aimed at the low part in the middle.
Third, Luther III asked all the nobles in the royal city to concentrate all their force as the main force to raid the arena. This order was unanimously resisted by the nobles, and no one was willing to contribute the only guard force in their hands at this critical moment, so they quarreled in a mess all day and gave Lorist and the others enough rest time...
Just as Luther III issued a series of orders, Lorist was chatting with the three golden gladiators Hughes Great Swordsman, Jedes, Mason, and Sendhank. At the top of the auditorium, chatting and bragging while monitoring the surrounding situation.
Lorist asked what they were going to do after the kingdom of Haneyabada was destroyed.
The great swordsman Hughes did not answer, but he could see that he was very confused. He had been sold to this slave kingdom as a gladiator for nearly twenty years, and the slave gladiators who came with him had long since lost their bones. He was as lucky as the illegitimate son of God of War. Not only did he not die, but he was also promoted from a silver-ranked gladiator to a great swordsman. He never thought about his own future, all he could think about before was how to struggle to survive.
Jedes is a former member of the Cresson Empire. Speaking of which, he is still a knight of the Royal Knights, but he was unlucky. He was injured in the first battle and fell into a coma. He was killed, but he was captured by slave traders and sold to a mine to dig copper mines for four years. When he slowly recovered from his wounds and prepared to kill and avenge the mine, he was unlucky enough to run into Luther III who came to inspect and the third-level great swordsman Rossi who came with him. Gabia, in the end, was caught without a fight and thrown into the arena.
Mason is the head of a mercenary group, but his mercenary group accidentally clashed with Duke Guffman's slave hunting group and was wiped out. He was captured and sold to the arena. He has been a slave gladiator for five years up. His greatest wish was to kill Duke Guffman with his own hands, and he hadn't thought about what to do in the future either.
Sendhanke wants to return to his hometown for revenge, and his experience is more like a tragedy. He is an aristocrat in the Kingdom of Himmles, but he is a fan of martial arts. When he was young, he wanted to be promoted to the gold rank and then start a family, so he traveled frequently, ignoring the feelings of his fiancée. As a result, his fiancée hooked up with his younger brother, and when he came back, he poured a tube of Sangong potion into fine wine, and after waking up, he realized that he had been sold to a slave trader, and his younger brother became the head of the family people…
Lorist said that he welcomes them to join the Norton family or live in their own family territory. This is the first time that Lorist officially expressed his intention to solicit them.
The great swordsman Hughes agreed very simply, his attitude was that there was nothing wrong with it, since he had nowhere to go anyway. It's just that his only condition is to stay for a year or two to see if he agrees, stay or go if he doesn't agree. Lorist agreed.
Both Jades and Mason said that they would think about it first. They wanted to go back to their hometown to see if there were any relatives. They would go to the Norton family territory when they found their relatives, and then join the Norton family.
Sunderhank rejected Lorist's solicitation. His hometown was too far away from the former Krissen Empire. One was almost at the northern end of human settlements, and the other was at the southern end, with the Romon Empire in between. And he has always wanted to go back to his hometown to regain his position as head of the family and take revenge on his fiancée and his younger brother. Lorist had no choice but to wish him all the best and a smooth journey.
On October 3rd, the Kingdom of Haneyabada fell into chaos after discovering that more than 20,000 members of the Avengers Legion had been killed overnight. Except for sending two small teams of Janissaries soldiers to search the arena, there was no one left. The other actions allowed Lorist and the slave gladiators to pass the day in peace.
On October 4th, the Kingdom of Haneyabada finally reacted. They dispatched six great sword masters. This was the only force in the royal city that could pose a threat to Lorist. Headed by the third-level great swordsman Rossi Gabia. He is not only the enshrinement of the royal family, but also the swordsmanship teacher of Luther III. When the kingdom was in danger, he took the leader of the Royal Guards, Viscount Sacre, the first-class sword master, and four sword masters enshrined by the nobles of the kingdom who had fled from Nubit Port back to the royal city. Entered the arena.
It's just that what the great swordsman Rossi Gabia didn't expect was that he ran into Lorist. The two met each other, and the fight was so dark that even the Viscount Sacre came up to besiege him. The two-on-one fight was indistinguishable. There was nothing anyone could do about it, and it was a tie.
On the other hand, it was a result that no one expected. The four great sword masters enshrined by the slave nobles seemed a bit misnamed. Hughes Great Sword Master took over the only second-level Great Sword Master among them, that is, the second-level Great Sword Master who chased Josk and Yuri in the hilly area. Sometimes the battle became a group, and after a long time, Hughes, the first-level great swordsman, began to gain some upper hand.
Jedes, Mason, and Sunderhank desperately took over the other three first-level sword masters. After fighting for a long time, the three of them were surprised to find that these three great sword masters were all soft-boiled. You can pinch as you like, after fighting for about an hour, the three great sword masters were already sweating, their faces were pale, and they just focused on parrying and resisting.
The three gold-ranked slave gladiators were so excited that they exchanged injuries for injuries and chased after them with their lives. In the end, the three first-level great sword masters couldn't stand it anymore. Two of them ran away and injured one, and then the injured one The body of the first-level great swordsman was divided by three gold-ranked slave gladiators.
The second-level great swordsman who was fighting against Hughes great swordsman couldn't hold back anymore, so he took a chance and escaped. The remaining third-level great swordsman Rosie Gabia had no choice but to cover Viscount Sakri while fighting and retreating, and also withdrew from the arena.
This was the first attack on the arena. Six great sword masters entered, but one was left behind. Lorist won.
On October 5th, the Kingdom of Haneyabada launched another attack on the arena, and this time more than five great sword masters came. There were a dozen or so gold-ranked knights and swordsmen frantically flocking into the arena behind them, as well as nearly a thousand noble private soldiers. This caught Lorist and the others by surprise, even though Lorist was big He killed nearly a hundred people, and there were four or five gold-ranked knights and swordsmen who died in his hands, but it was difficult to support them alone. After Hughes Great Swordsman and Jades were forced into the basement, Lorist had no choice but to retreat into the underground cell and continue to hold on.
This is the second attack on the arena. The Kingdom of Haneyabada forced Lorist and the others to transfer to the underground cell to defend themselves with more than a hundred casualties. Among them, Mason and Sundhank were seriously injured. Slightly injured, Lorist was exhausted. The Kingdom of Haneyabad won a strategic victory and regained the superstructure of the arena.
On October 6th, the Kingdom of Haneyabada continued to attack the lower level of the arena, but they did not expect that Fatty Shi used sacks containing grain to pile up soil, turning the basement level into a maze. No matter how many people went in, they never came back. In addition, Lorist and Hughes Great Swordsman were like ducks in water inside, so they gave the great swordsman Rosie Gabia who ventured in and forced him to retreat.
This time, Lorist and the others completely won, and the Kingdom of Haneyabada suffered more than 200 casualties.
On October 7th, the Kingdom of Haneyabada changed its strategy. They gathered nearly a thousand slave laborers and prepared to dig from the top down to dig out the entire underground floor. At noon, the first report of defeat came. The only cavalry unit in the Kingdom of Haneyabada was attacked by thousands of enemy light cavalry when it was going to suppress a slave riot in a royal manor. Most of the 1,800 people fought death, only about seventy survivors ran back. The enemy - the scout light cavalry of the Norton family has appeared in the sight of the city wall guards.
In the afternoon, the Kingdom of Haneyabada violently attacked the basement level of the arena. They knew in their hearts that once the city was besieged by the enemy and there was still an arena in the city occupied by the enemy, they wanted to fight against the cage city. It is very difficult to do it, and only by removing the cancer of the arena first can we make preparations for defending the royal city.
The Kingdom of Haneyabada turned on the lights and fought at night. Lorist and others fought back desperately. Numerous skylights were opened on the entire basement floor. Enemies jumped from the top one by one. It was already the morning of the second day when the special staff were forced to retreat to the second basement floor.
The two sides were defeated and feared injury. The family soldiers under Lorist suffered seventy or eighty casualties, while the slave gladiators lost more than three hundred. It’s just that Haneyabada Kingdom’s losses were even greater. Nearly a thousand people were killed in the battle alone, and more than a thousand people were injured. It can be said that all the mobile forces that can be mobilized in King Hamidas City have been exhausted. do...
On October 8, neither side fought.
On October 9th, another report of defeat came. The Imperial Guard Corps of the Kingdom of Haneyabada was lured into the hilly area by the Norton family and was surrounded. , Uncle Wang of Luther III died on the spot. As the news spread, wailing broke out in the royal city, and the whole city was in chaos.
On October 10th, the Norton family's scouts and light cavalry had already surrounded Hamidas King City, and these scout light cavalry could be seen everywhere on the city wall.
On October 11th, the armed Norton family arrived under the royal city, accompanied by tens of thousands of freed slaves. They began to build camps and defensive facilities around the royal city...
On October 12, Luther III forced the residents of the royal city to go up to the city wall to defend, and sent envoys to sue for peace, but was rejected by Tiger Ross, the armed commander of the Norton family.
At around 8:00 p.m., Lorist led the slave gladiators to raid the wall of the northern city and successfully occupied it. A large number of Norton family armed forces entered the royal city along the drain of the northern city. King Hamidas fell...
On the afternoon of October 13th, after the third-level great swordsman Rosie Gabia was decapitated by Lorist, the desperate Luther III killed his three princesses and the prince who was just a few months old , set fire to himself in his bedroom. The kingdom of Haneyabada, a slave kingdom that lasted for nearly a hundred years after the founding of the country, perished.
