Chapter 525, False and True

In fact, it was an extremely correct decision for Matthew Bard to order the vampire Belitus to lead the vanguard army to attack the Spire Palace immediately after receiving the news, because when Belitus led the undead vanguard to set off from Musilon, Ryan The army has only just built a pontoon bridge with the help of dwarven engineers.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! We don't have much time left!" Almost all the knights were ordering loudly to deliver supplies and assist in the defense of the city. After Ryan went up to the city wall with the cannon on his back, the knights The gentlemen were also forced to personally assist in the delivery of supplies. After all, Ryan, who was the commander in chief, had to work hard in person, and none of them would dare to stand still.

Many young ranger knights complained terribly, saying that we came here to recover Musilon, not to be a coolie, and Ryan's subordinate Juan Carlos-Sun Watcher immediately plausibly imitated what he learned: "Usually Sweat more, bleed less in battle!"

As soon as this remark came out, some knights immediately retorted, saying that Britannia’s chivalry has never used these long-range weapons, and it’s fine for you civilians to use them.

Pure man is to melee!

At this time, Ryan, who was walking up the city wall step by step with a heavy cannon on his back, said, "Then it doesn't matter if the Spire Palace is lost? Does it not matter if we keep Musilon under the rule of the undead?"

Now the knights are silent.

"It has been two hundred and eighty years since the last Duke of Connaught, Madred, was killed after being killed in the Tower of Dole. There has been no more duke in the whole of Musillon, and this place has become a land of eternal sadness and corruption. Eroded land, for more than two hundred years, we have come here again and again, and failed again and again. Is this the way of chivalry? The way of chivalry is to sit and watch the land that the lady gave us, and sit and watch it decay like this forever Fall?"

"For this war, we have been preparing for many years." Ryan put down the heavy artillery. He stood on the city wall and said to all the knights: "We raided this castle on a cold night. We charged in the middle of the night, we fought in the dark, we won in the dawn, now decades, our flag is flying on the Spire Palace again, but this is still only the beginning!"

"The undead also know the importance of the Spire Palace. Their counterattack will be extremely fierce, and we only have more than 5,000 people. We must defend this place in front of an army of at least 20,000 undead. Knights, we have no way to retreat, no way There is no way to escape, if we fail, tomorrow our dead bodies will wield our weapons in life and turn their heads to slash at our compatriots, even so, doesn’t it matter?” Ryan said to all the knights: “People are dead, The vampire has won, and this battle will be worthless, are you willing to die worthless? Are you willing to become the plaything of the undead after death?!"

Opposition broke out among the knights, and they responded loudly to Ryan's words.

"No! Fight to the death! Fight to the end!"

"Destroy the undead!"

"Recover Mousillon! For the lady! For Britannia!"

"For Landuin! For Ryan Malcador!"

Ryan nodded with satisfaction. His prestige in the Knight Kingdom is still very high. Seeing that the knights' emotions have been mobilized, he shouted loudly: "Now we still have a chance! We can help our friend King Belegar Transport the cannon to the city wall and transport the supplies into the city. As long as we guard the Spire Palace, the future will belong to us! The land of the kingdom does not allow any evil undead to desecrate! Let us unite as one, to defend the Spire Palace, knights, extend your hands! For the lady!"

"For the lady!" The knights immediately began to help like chicken blood. Once these strong professional soldiers joined the working team, the whole speed became much faster.

Even so, it is still very difficult for the dwarf's heavy artillery to hang on the city wall. This is really because the dwarf's artillery is too heavy, and this attack on Musilon,

Almost all the cannons and organ guns that Ryan had stored for many years, as well as the cannons of the Angrund clan, were shipped in, and there were hundreds of various models.

The witch of the lake, Morgiana, sat in the castle hall and issued orders one after another. After the pontoon bridge was built, piles of food supplies and various strategic materials piled up were transported into the castle in boxes. Countless bread bags And all kinds of frozen vegetables, meat, fish, as well as some high-end foods eaten by knight lords, and various feeds for horses.

"The types of rations are really rich." The knights from the Principality of Carcassonne sighed. Hubald, the Duke of Carcassonne, sent an army of 500 knights and knight retinues here to obey Ryan's dispatch. The knight shook his head when he saw the food: "Oh my God, we will be able to eat this food soon!"

The Principality of Carcassonne guards the southern border of Britannia, and is attacked by the Beastman War Gang and the Greenskin tribe all the year round. Therefore, the entire Principality is in war preparation all the year round. Due to the perennial trade with Tyrell and Estalia, The Carcassonne branch of the Goddess of War Academy is also opened here, causing both the knight class and the serf class in the Principality of Carcassonne to be extremely martial, and thus ease the contradictions between them to a certain extent. When everyone is threatened , the knights often encourage the serfs to "stand alone" through tax cuts, and almost all the serfs in this principality have received certain military training in order to defend their homes and the country. As the duke, Hubald used his own Laws govern the principality.

In short, both knights and serfs in this principality have tightened their belts to live a hard life together. The Knight Kingdom has considered the situation of Carcassonne. Each generation of knight kings has given the Principality of Carcassonne certain tax breaks, and the The goddess Morgiana will also send Holy Grail Knights to patrol the southern border from time to time.

Although the Principality of Carcassonne also borders the Forest of Athel Loren, their relationship with the wood elves is very bad. The knights of Carcassonne are very envious of Ryan's ability to trade with the wood elves, and they are also jealous of the wealth of the Duke of Wenford. endlessly.

"The entire kingdom is changing, otherwise there would not have been three serfs who were promoted to knights last year. Although it turns out that they are all illegitimate children of nobles, I think that if a serf can fully demonstrate his loyalty and bravery, then they have The value of promotion is like that Lord Bertrand!" A young knight said with a smile while carrying a whole box of black powder.

"Mr. Leofric, we are not winners in life like you." Immediately, a knight from the Principality of Carcassonne retorted, and a ranger knight in his thirties complained: "I know that in your Principality of Wenford , some serfs already eat as well as knights, and I only wish I could eat as well as you!"

"If you want to eat as well as Leofric, it's very simple, you just want to win the laurels of the Knights' Conference!" Paladin Gerald passed by pushing a dwarf-made cart, which is popular in the entire knight kingdom. It's all popular, it's easy to use, and it's beautifully crafted.

Leofric Caral, the champion of another knight conference after Suria, this kingdom knight who was only 25 or 6 years old at the time was still from the Duchy of Wenford, and he defeated 20 knights in the knight conference. A participating knight won the championship and was rewarded by the regent of the kingdom, Lawn. As a regent, Lawn promoted him to a knight of the kingdom and gave him a pure-blood elf horse. He not only won fame, but also won the favor of the beautiful noble lady. , Helen, the daughter of Hubald, the Duke of Carcassonne, fell in love with the young knight of the kingdom and fell in love with him. It is said that the two are ready to get married.

In Britannia, there are not many ways for ordinary knights to impress the princess, but winning the laurel of the knight's conference is obviously one of the most effective ways.

With a double harvest in love and career, Leofric became a winner in life just like Ryan at the beginning, and the three consecutive knight championships came from the Principality of Wenford (Julius, Suria, Leofric), It also shows the richness and strength of the principality.

"Sir Gerald!" Leofric Carral hurriedly stood up and said hello.

"Now is not the time to chat, hurry up! If there are no accidents, the vanguard of the undead will arrive this evening!" Gerald pushed the cart, which was full of wooden boxes, and no one knew what was inside the wooden box.

"Yes!" The knights answered loudly.

Gerald nodded, and he pushed the cart up the wall with all his might.

On the city wall, the dwarves and the knights hung the cannon up the city wall vigorously. Even with the help of the knights and knight retinues, the speed of transporting a large number of artillery to the city wall was still very slow. Ryan was already sweating all over his body at this time. Putting down a cannon, he said to Gerald, "Thank you, Gerald."

"Your Excellency Ryan, at this speed, when the vanguard of the undead arrives, we can only install no more than thirty cannons on the city wall." Gerald put down the trolley, and he said worriedly: "If so, the undead Once the vanguard begins to attack the city, we must stop transporting artillery, and most of the artillery will be useless in this defense.”

"It will work." Ryan took the towel from the sorceress Teresa and wiped it on his face a few times. He looked at the box brought up by Gerald and smiled: "At that time, the city wall will Full of cannon."

"When is that time?" Gerald looked at the sky. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. No matter how hard he tried, the undead vanguard would arrive before six o'clock.

"It will be full." Ryan signaled Gerald to open the wooden box. When Gerald saw what was inside the wooden box, the paladin widened his eyes: "This is?!"

"Yes, I said, it will be full." Ryan grinned treacherously: "I will do what I say."

……… I am the dividing line of incomparable treachery………

In the Spire Palace in February, the sky began to sink into darkness around five o'clock,

Mu Xilong's vampire lord, Belitus has led an army of more than 9,000 undead to approach Mu Xilong.

His lieutenant is Hal Harris, the vampire lord of the von Carstein family. If anyone remembers, this guy was Ryan's connector when he disguised himself as a trader at Mousillon. This vampire lord was left behind by Manfred. In Mu Xilong, on the one hand, as his own representative, on the other hand, he also attempted to inquire about the news.

"There are a lot of weirdness in the fall of the Spire Palace. In any case, it shouldn't be captured in just one day." Hal Harris, riding on the undead horse, said to Belitus: "So I It is suggested that we suspend the march and send enough people to investigate the environment of the Spire Palace first!"

"No! We must attack the Spire Palace directly according to the order of the Duke of Matthew Bud!" Belites refuted Hal Harris' opinion: "We can't stay, we must attack before the southerners have perfected the defense !"

The vampire lord closed his eyes, and he snorted with a sneer: "Okay, I'll just listen to you, but I hope you know that it's no good to be too loyal to your master, if you listen to his arrangements all the time, You are losing yourself."

"None of us made mistakes, it's just that our goals were different from the beginning." Hal Harris stopped repeating the topic after finishing speaking: "Tell me, Matthew Bud's lackey, what is your battle plan?" ?”

"We will arrive at the Spire Palace at 5:30. I plan to choose a wall with weaker defenses and attack directly." Belites ignored the bewitching and provocation in Hal Harris' words【.】.

To a certain extent, Hal Harris is right. The vampire lord of the von Carstein family does have a different goal from Belitus. What Hal Harris wants is to gather a His own army has become the real power lord, and what Belitus wants is to avenge his half-brother Karad.

The vampires of the von Carstein family are like this. They are always planning to improve their status, gain more power and authority, and want to dominate the world.

Belitus knew that there was an undercurrent surging under Musilon's calm lake. Due to repeated wars and conspiracy failures, even with the help of the Lich King Akhan, Matthew Bard's rule would not be stable. Many vampire lords are very dissatisfied with his behavior of retreating to Mousillon from time to time, and according to the rumors, it seems that the Von Carstein family is contributing to this...

Looking at Hal Harris' bald head and the strange expression on his face, Belites seemed to understand something.

But now is not the time to think about this issue. Before I know it, the Spire Palace has arrived.

The Britannian army is ready to fight. Human musketeers, dwarf musketeers, and serf archers have gathered on the city wall, ready to meet the enemy.

And what shocked the two vampire lords was...

So many cannons!

So many dwarven cannons! ! !

Dwarf cannons are densely lined up on the city wall, and more than 50 cannons are installed on just one city wall! A row of black muzzles are facing the undead vanguard, as if declaring their doomed fate!

"Impossible! This is impossible! It has only been more than a day since the Spire Palace fell, how did these southerners transport so many artillery to the city wall!" Belites opened his eyes wide, and he said in disbelief: "I don't believe it!"

But the results of the investigation told him that the southerners had completed their defense, and dozens of dwarf artillery were installed on each wall!

The unbelieving vampire lord only tried to attack once, and several artillery pieces opened fire on the city wall, blasting the two death squads formed by Belites to pieces.

"Carbon~ baby!" The dwarf engineer Dugan Tiehan laughed loudly on the city wall: "Come on! Undead bastards! Your grandfather Dugan is waiting for you here!"

"Damn it! We are late!" Belites yelled angrily: "Retreat! Retreat first! Wait until the Duke arrives with the main force, and then discuss how to regain the castle!"

"withdraw!!!"
