Chapter 445: A Dilemma (Three Changes)

By the time Alan arrived at the village with a few soldiers, the village had already been captured. 一qiē鑺lì is surprisingly normal. When the alarm bell was heard, the guards in the village reacted quickly, and more than a dozen soldiers put on armor to meet the battle, but they crushed Belmode and other strong men with absolute force. The miscellaneous soldiers who rushed to kill one person and get a gold coin had no chance to make a move, and the battle was already over.

It's just that Belmode and the others disdain to kill such low-force soldiers, so they are all on the wrong side. Even Regers, a martial idiot, knocked the soldier on the spot with a casual knock on the back of his knife. Except for two soldiers who reacted violently and did not surrender after being beaten down, Belmode cut his throat and put him down. However, the blood of the soldiers calmed down the others, at least when the villagers were asked to gather, there was no resistance.

Alan came to the meeting point, rode on his horse and glanced at the villagers, "From now on, this village is no longer the territory of Sunset City. You didn't resist, and that's good, you avoided needless killings. Next, I hope that you will faithfully carry out my orders, so that I can guarantee that your lives will not be in danger. ”

"What do you need, sir?" A middle-aged man asked.

"You are?"

"I'm the head of this village."

"Very well, village chief. Then please let everyone bring out all the food, and besides, adult men must join my army, and my orders are as simple as that. ”

The village chief's face changed: "My lord, there is no problem with food. But if you want men to join the army, they are all civilians. ”

"The people behind me were civilians a month ago. However, they are now warriors, so do as I say. Alan said calmly: "Join my army, kill an enemy, and you can get a gold coin." Kill ten, and you will be free. If you refuse, then unfortunately, don't let me be the devil again, you don't want that to happen. ”

Although he didn't say what happened, the villagers could probably imagine seeing the red-eyed soldiers behind Allen. The village chief sighed and shouted to the villagers to do what Allen said. Soon, Alan got a batch of food, and fifty or so strong men. The men were given a knife, and Alan had scrambled them into the army, so that they could not betray if they wanted to. As for the ten soldiers, they were brought by Allen's side.

After less than two hours in the village of Denis, Alan ordered the army to set off, following the straight track he had drawn on the map, and headed straight for the next village.

It took more than an hour to reach the next village, and the men of Denis were in charge of the vanguard of the assault on the village. In desperation, they could only rush to the village and hand their knives to the people in the same territory. The battle was also very rapid, and the guards of the village were knocked apart in a stunned state, and Allen led in with a long army and quickly suppressed the village.

The soldiers and men didn't kill many people, only two soldiers and three or four villagers were killed in the fierce resistance. But for Allen, this is equivalent to opening the line of defense in the hearts of these people. And directly participated in the attack, and also tied them to Allen's chariot in disguise. Even if they escaped, they would be severely punished by their lords, or even strangled.

For them, they can live longer by staying with Allen.

Like Denis Village, Allen has adopted the same strategy for this village. Take away the food and the young men, so that even if these territories are later recovered, the most important resources have already been taken by Allen. In this way, Alan attacked overnight, taking three villages and a small town in succession, and the army quickly swelled from the original five hundred to eight hundred. Even though it is still a miscellaneous army, it is already a threat to the barony of Tomen's pattern.

Before dawn, Eren saw Sunset City. The city, located near the Valley of the Clouds, has a certain size. Of course, that was the conclusion compared with several other villages and towns. In fact, the city of Tormen is still less than Storm City. Its low walls, without artillery as a defensive system to suppress it, really lacked the power to shock the foreign enemy.

At least in Allen's eyes, the city is almost as undefended. But this time, Eren did not rush to attack, but arranged his army and advanced towards Sunset City in a fairly neat formation, in order to create an invisible pressure of the army pressing the realm.

Baron Tormen woke up in his sleep, and just as he learned that several villages and towns in his territory had been occupied, Alan had already arrived at the city. The speed of the march and the speed of its movements made Baron Tormen smile bitterly. This vigorous tactical style shows that there is no possibility of compromise on the other side. There are only two options left for Tomen, one is to surrender, and the other is to sacrifice his life to protect the city. He had no other choice.

However, the army in Sunset City was less than five hundred men combined, and this had to be collected from the usual security forces. Even the army was no match for Allen, and Tomen didn't know how to fight this battle. But as a lord, he couldn't stay behind the door, so he could only let people put on armor and come to the city wall.

Under the city wall, Allen's army phalanx was less than three hundred meters away from Sunset City, and this distance would be ignored by the soldiers' charge in a blink of an eye.

"Baron Tormen!"

Alan rode alone to the city gate. The fire/gun team in the city was eager to try, but gave Tormen a look to stop him. At this moment, the baron finally showed the bearing of a lord, stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "Sir Allen, do you know what you are doing? This is an invasion, and you are invading the territory of the Honorable Sir Daniel. If you retreat now, I can tell the Viscount that I won't pursue your audacity this time. ”

Alan on the horse smiled faintly and said, "Sure enough, as rumored to be, Sir Tomon is indeed a generous-hearted lord. Rest assured, since I have come here, I am ready to be pursued by Sir Daniel, and even retaliated. But that's after tonight, and right now, Sunset doesn't have the slightest reinforcements, I'm right, Sir Tomen. ”

Thomen glanced at the soldiers on the wall and said, "Even if there are no reinforcements, we will defend Sunset City." ”

"Sir is a man of great courage, but I wonder if you can swing your butcher's knife at your former people?" Alan gestured, and the two hundred or so surrendered soldiers and villagers hesitantly walked out, including even a high-ranking officer.

Tormen recognized the officer, and his face immediately turned rather ugly. Alan said, "Don't blame them, Sir, in the face of life and death, they just made the right choice. Now, I want to give you a choice, sir. ”

Tomen snorted, but didn't answer. Alan smiled and continued, "The first option is, of course, surrender, then we will all be happy tonight. The second is fighting, which would be a pity. Whether it's you or them, I don't think either of you want to go toe; So I have a third option, Lord Sir. How about a duel between the lords and me? ”

"Duel?"

"Yes, if you win, then you can catch me or even kill me. As for my men and troops, whether they can leave or not depends on their own ability. And that way, you don't have to swing your sword at your own people, do you? Otherwise, if you lose, Sunset will give it to you, and I promise you won't hurt your people. And these people, I will give them freedom! ”

Hearing Allen's words, those who surrendered couldn't help but look at Baron Tomen. Allen's move undoubtedly gave them a glimmer of hope, as long as Tomen agreed to this duel, then no matter whether they won or lost, they didn't have to kill each other, and they could hardly find a reason for Tomen to refuse. Only Tomen himself knew that this was a big problem that Alan had given him.

That's right, on the surface, whether you win or lose, Tomen takes advantage. But in reality, Tomen knew he was going to lose. Among Daniel's vassals, he was never known for his martial arts. And even Duruff, who was the champion of martial arts, asked the young man in the city to kill him, and with the strength of barely level 15, how could he be Allen's opponent.

Alan generously threw out this proposal, and Tomen agreed that it was not, and it was worse to refuse. Whatever the answer, it is foreseeable that after tonight, his prestige will fall to the bottom. He gritted his teeth and said, "In order to prevent Sunset City from bleeding, I, Tomen, am here to grant Sir Allen's request for a duel. ”

This is a helpless move, anyway, it's better to lose beautifully, at least you can keep a little bit of dignity for yourself.

Hearing Sizz's answer, the soldiers in Sunset City cheered loudly for Tomen, and the soldiers were relieved. With a wave of his hand, Alan let the men retreat, and he dismounted with his sword, and nailed straight to the city gate to wait for Sir Tormen.

The gates opened, and a knight in silver light armor strode out. He carried a knight's spear in his right hand and a rifle decorated with intricate patterns in the other. Facing Ellen, Jazz took a deep breath and drank again. The engraved light on the front of his chest lit up, and the pale cyan source power flame came out of his body, churning around Sir endlessly, illuminating the light armor on Sizz's body shining brightly.

In terms of appearance, Baron Tormen is worthy of his status as a lord. Although the momentum is not very strong, it also gives Alan a hint of pressure, but that's all.

Alan nodded and said, "It's time to start." ”

Tormon was not polite, and raised his rifle to shoot at Allen several times in a row, opening the duel with a tentative attack.
