Chapter 22: Friends Have Love
"It's good to have a conversation with you. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info This time, I don't have to use the hidden words in the painting to speak. Nika's words were full of sadness.
"Your Excellency the Grand Duke has asked you to surrender the castle." Wright bowed again under the city and said.
"Isn't this castle his sooner or later?"
Then Wright opened the scroll and read it aloud to the public, "The Grand Duke will ensure the safety of all the inhabitants of the city after the fall, and after they have been screened, they will be placed in various workshops in Seleucia, and after a suitable period of time they will be assigned a holy estate, and from then on they will live in peace and tranquility." As for the private soldiers of Callegos who defend the city, all their weapons will be confiscated, because the Grand Duke understands that your army is small in number and courage is not enough, and no one will dare to continue to choose to be his enemy in the rest of his life, so after they surrender, they are free to be dismissed if they are willing to go to other regions, and those who are willing to stay in Seleucia can be granted land. β
"What about us Callegos?" Nika quietly listened to what the castle had to say, and at this time, Wright, who was holding the scroll below, seemed to ask intentionally.
Wright also paused, and then used the cryptic phrase again, "The farmer in that picture has raised enough hounds, and he likes to completely repair the fence, and then completely dig up the eye-catching poplar trees." β
Gray-white messy hair, slapping on Nika's wrinkled forehead with the wind, the blind veteran facing the dazzling sun, listening to the sound of the waves, sitting on his shoulder, he is like an old tree crushed by the wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the wilderness, "In that case, I understand...... Take care of your life to come, and may your Grand Duke rule justly over all the monks, soldiers, merchants, and commoners of this land, and grant them peace and prosperity, and your esteemed deputy heraldic officer, and I would like to give you the last remnant of King Solomon's proverb, which is, 'Friends always have love.'" After speaking, the old general gestured on his chest and saluted Wright slightly.
"Yes, 'at all times, friends have love,' and even if the Grand Duke's cannons will destroy this fortress because of hatred, I still want to express my respect and sympathy for you, Your Excellency, and the entire Callegos family, in my personal name." With that, Wright raised the scroll, bowed for the third time, and then, to the sound of the trumpeters blowing in unison, turned and walked towards his own camp - on the opposite hill, Gawain, who was watching all this, raised his hand to the five large prani cannons that had been laid behind him.
Soon, on the hillside leading to the Seleucian street, a horseman and horse dressed in strict armor, covered with face armor, holding high the flying banner of St. Theodore's portrait in his hand, the golden flagpole glittered in the slanting sun, and in the sound of the horn, more and more mounted cavalry lined up, clustered around the standard-bearer, without making a sound, all carrying the reins, staring at the Alalmanburg that was besieged and smashed by stone bullets and cried to the sky, on the sea in the distance, The ships of the pirate leader Winmoha are densely cut off from its external waterways, and the clouds and light cover the sea and the sky, like a beautiful and majestic but terrifying heavy color painting.
The Mounted Cavalry Regiment, Anna's murder toy, had come from the direction of Seleucia to give the dying Alalmanburg a final fatal blow.
The first to wear the general's medal was also the commander of the entire mounted cavalry regiment, Walter. Sanzaval, the old man from West Francia, pointed to the entire battlefield below, "Her Royal Highness the Purple Princess has reached an internal agreement with the Grand Duke, in order to show our prestige, to allow us to be the first to cross the bridge on the day of the general attack, and enjoy the glory of being the first to break the city, so you must order the military servants to properly reduce the weight of your horses' armor, otherwise the horses' hooves will easily break the bridge and fall into the trenches of our army." β
Everyone nodded their heads, and then the two young prison officers, Gaia and Nexus, took the initiative to step forward, "Please Commander, let our brother take the position of leader of the formation!" β
"As a prison officer, you must fulfill the princess's entrustment, be responsible for the postponement in wartime, and supervise the orderly formation of the entire team, which is the best contribution to the entire battle situation." Walter hesitated, then politely refused the brothers' request, fearing that they would deliberately die in battle.
Walter then announced that the leader of the battle was undoubtedly Sigma, for both Gawain and Anna had promised him beforehand that if he succeeded, he would be rewarded with a hundred gold Byzantit coins if he succeeded and rushed beautifully and mightily, and aroused the morale of all the soldiers.
But when the mounted cavalry entered the camp one after another, the shouts of killing began that nightβthe desperate Severn. Callegos told his father and brother that he did not want to die in a castle like a bag, much less in such a humiliating siege. After saying goodbye, the boss of Callegos first drove out 200 of the city's inhabitants out of the east gate, and the militia on the other side of the trench shouted loudly, asking all the inhabitants to bow down, and then they would set up a wooden bridge to help them come.
Severn roared angrily, with more than 30 of his own personal soldiers, protruding from the west gate on foot, there were no horses, no torches, and several people in front of him fell into the trench in the dark night, and pressed the sharp thistles densely covered in it with their flesh and blood, but there was no scream and moaning, Severn and the rest of the personal soldiers stepped on their corpses, climbed over the trench with all their might, and prepared to break out along the landing bridge!
When the bell rang out quickly, the torches shone on the ground, and the people's troops to which Birel belonged echoed each other loudly, rushing out of their respective camps, and shooting arrows at the flanks of Severn who had turned out of the trenches and rushed towards the land bridges and swamps.
Under the moonlight, Ace on the head of the city. Callegos wept and knelt on the pheasant, and he saw with his own eyes: by the land bridge, several Seleucian cavalry rushed there, and drove Severn and a few of his own soldiers back, and then more and more people surrounded them, and they put away their bows and arrows for fear of accidentally injuring their companions, and used hooks, iron rods, and spears to poke in all directions, and Severn's own soldiers waved their swords to block, but they were only one pair of hands, and they were soon stabbed one by one, and blood flowed all over the ground, and those who still had breath were also dragged by the hooks and taken prisoners, Saiwen shouted in despair, dancing the sword in his hand, stumbling into the white light of the sword blade around his body, and as a result, he fell into the swamp muddy water in a panic......
