Chapter 1276 Are You Angry? I'll Teach You How to Take Revenge!
"Ah, there are quite a few of them. Are those prisoners prisoners or enemy soldiers?"
By the light of the fire in the camp in the distance, everyone in Beitecheng could vaguely clear a path, and there were many figures running towards the city.
It's just that the distance is too far and it's dark, so everyone can't tell the identity of the person yet.
Of course, for the sake of caution, Commander Bei Tiecheng immediately issued an alert order.
Dang Dang Dang!
As the order was issued, alarm bells sounded immediately in the city, and the soldiers who had been taking turns to rest returned to the city wall to prepare for possible attacks.
Before long, the figure in the distance had approached the city wall more than two hundred meters away.
Once we reached this area, it was already necessary to launch an attack within the city.
As a result, scoldings immediately came from the city wall: "Stop, who are you? If you dare to come forward again, you will be killed without mercy!"
When the group of people below heard this, they immediately shouted in response: "We are from the Flame Continent, don't attack."
"We just escaped from the camp of the Storm Legion, don't attack!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at Commander Bei Tie.
Although Commander Bei Tie frowned, he still raised his hand to signal his men not to attack yet.
"You send a few people forward to inform them of your identity. The rest of you cannot get close to the city wall."
Commander Bei Tiecheng shouted to the prisoners outside the city.
This is to further confirm the identity of the other party. After all, they are two hundred meters apart and it is still dark, so it is really impossible to tell whether the other party is a friend or an enemy.
All the prisoners also understood that four people were immediately approaching towards the city wall.
These four people are considered the highest status among the prisoners.
"Commander Bei Tiecheng, I am Shuni, the commander of Kanoer City. We escaped from the Demonic Beasts of the Storm Legion tonight through a riot. Please ask Commander Bei Tie to let us enter the city immediately."
"Commander of Beitie City, I am Yibi, the commander of Doblin City. Please let us in quickly. We have tens of thousands of people in total. If we are not allowed to enter the city, the people of the Storm Legion will come after us later. ”
"Commander of Beitecheng..."
Arriving at the bottom of the city wall, several prisoners immediately informed them of their identities.
Although the commander of Bei Tiecheng did not know them personally, he had basically heard of these cities.
But what everyone said about letting them into the city made things difficult for the commander of Bei Tiecheng.
"Everyone, I know it is very difficult for you to escape from the enemy, but I cannot let you enter the city!"
Commander Bei Tie finally refused the requests of several people.
"Why, Commander Bei Tiecheng, we are all from the Flame Continent. Although we were captured, our loyalty to the God of Flame has not changed."
"You let us enter the city, and together we can resist the attack of the Storm Legion."
When several captive commanders heard this, their faces suddenly showed anxiety.
"Everyone, it's not that I am unwilling, but the safety of Beitecheng is related to the safety of the entire Holy City."
"Although I also know that what you said is most likely the true identity, I can't take the risk."
"After all, even if your identities are easy to confirm, as for the other prisoners, you may not be 100% sure whether there are enemy spies among them."
"Well, commanders, why don't you immediately bypass our Beitie City and head towards the Holy City."
"There are more soldiers guarding the Holy City, and the Holy City is still safe for the time being. Even if the Storm Legion wants to pursue it, they don't dare to go too deep."
"Then you will have a chance to survive!"
Commander Bei Tiecheng patiently explained to the several captive commanders.
"Commander Bei Tiecheng, the enemy will soon dispatch cavalry to pursue us. Even if we want to spare Bei Tiecheng, we don't know how many casualties we will pay!"
"Besides, there are basically no enemies among us prisoners."
"Because we were able to escape tonight only through hard work. It was not because the enemy deliberately released us!"
However, several commanders did not want to escape according to the method suggested by Commander Bei Tiecheng.
Although the Holy City is indeed safe, can they escape there safely?
"Commanders, although this is very risky, if you go immediately now, you still have a good chance."
"But if it's too late, it'll be too late!"
Commander Bei Tiecheng still shook his head.
Seeing that he still persisted, the commanders below had a look of disappointment on their faces. At this time, one of the commanders said: "Commander Bei Tie, can you send a few messengers to pass our news back to the Holy City? Let’s see if the Holy City can send someone to pick us up?”
"This is no problem. I will send a messenger to report the matter immediately!"
Commander Beitecheng did not refuse.
Even if the leader of these captives didn't say anything, he still needed to report this matter.
After all, the lives of tens of thousands of people are at stake.
Immediately, the captive commanders did not delay any longer and immediately returned to the crowd 200 meters away.
And when the crowd outside learned that Bei Tiecheng refused to let them in, there was a burst of noise and yelling.
Obviously they have very big opinions on Bei Tiecheng's refusal to save him.
In particular, Commander Bei Tiecheng was directly spurned by them.
Upon seeing this, the subordinates around Commander Bei Tiecheng looked at him cautiously.
Although Commander Bei Tiecheng frowned, he didn't say anything.
Instead, his subordinates immediately sent messengers to the Holy City to see if they could request a supporting team.
After the people under the city wall cursed a few times, they immediately prepared to flee for their lives and began to go sideways around Beitie City.
It's just that although Beitie City is an acropolis, it can be estimated to be a city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. It will take a lot of time to make a detour on your legs in the dark.
More than twenty minutes passed in a flash, and some traces of the huge crowd of captives could still be seen.
Boom! Boom!
At this moment, the roar of war horses could be heard in the distance.
It was the Storm Legion that responded and rushed out tens of thousands of cavalry from the camp.
In addition, there are dense infantry following closely behind.
""
"Ah, no, it's the cavalry of the Storm Legion. What will happen to the escaped prisoners now!"
"Yes, their speed is too slow!!"
As the cavalry appeared, the soldiers on the city wall who were the first to notice the situation began to scream in surprise.
And the fact is, as they say, legs can't outrun a war horse.
Not long after, everyone watched helplessly as the Storm Legion cavalry circled in front of the captured soldiers and blocked their retreat.
When the captured soldiers saw this, they immediately became confused and began to scatter like headless flies.
When the cavalry of the Storm Legion saw this, they immediately mobilized their horses and started chasing them.
Fortunately, because these prisoners were scattered and fled, they would not be trampled into pieces.
Of course, on the other hand, it is precisely because of this.
On the contrary, it made this one-sided massacre even more unbearable to watch.
Because if they were trampled into pieces, the battle might end quickly.
But this slow pursuit seemed to be a long-lasting cat and mouse game.
Listening to the constant screams from the escaped prisoners, anger arose in the hearts of everyone on the city wall.
In the end, those captured soldiers who had escaped before were even driven back to the gate of Beitie City.
"Haha, you damn guys, why don't you just be prisoners, but you have to escape. This is the punishment for escape."
"Haha, have you seen the turtles in the city? These guys are your fate in the future."
"If you don't want to be like them, then just come out and surrender!"
And when these captured soldiers were driven outside the gate, the chasing Storm Legion cavalry were killing and ridiculing them at the same time.
Suddenly, the eyes of everyone above the city wall were astonishing.
"Your Majesty, please ask your subordinates to lead the people out of the city. I will kill them!"
"Yes, sir, let us bring the cavalry and fight them!"
Immediately, several city guard captains couldn't stand it and asked Commander Bei Tiecheng to speak out.
Although Commander Bei Tiecheng was also furious, he suppressed it and said: "This is a trick of the enemy. They just want to provoke us to leave the city."
"Everyone is really angry when I see this, but think about the Holy City behind us. There are tens of millions of people in the Holy City."
"If our Beitie City is captured by the enemy, more people will be slaughtered by the invaders in the future!"
"This..." When the captains heard this, they were very reluctant, but they also knew that their leaders were telling the truth.
At this moment, there were hundreds of prisoners outside the city. With no way to escape, they finally ran towards the city wall.
"Open the door quickly, damn it, please save us!"
"Yes, help us quickly, we are also from the Flame Continent!"
When these prisoners arrived under the city wall, there were waves of calls for help.
Whoosh whoosh!
At this moment, the cavalry of the Storm Legion raised their bows and arrows, and immediately shot several prisoners to death.
"Haha, those cowards have abandoned you, you are dead!"
After killing several prisoners, jeers followed.
When these prisoners saw this, they could only continue to flee to other places.
"Lord Commander!"
Faced with this repeated stimulation, the rationality that existed before was gone.
As a result, several captains continued to look at Commander Bei Tiecheng.
Commander Bei Tiecheng was also so angry that he clenched his hands.
"I will open the city gate, and you will lead 20,000 cavalry out of the city. However, you have to know whether the last ones who leave the city will come back alive..."
Commander Bei Tiecheng finally relented.
"Lord Commander, we are not afraid of death!"
Several subordinates replied immediately.
"Haha, you are so brave, so brave!"
Just as Commander Bei Tie and several captains finished speaking, the sound of clapping hands suddenly came from above their heads.
Everyone was startled and immediately raised their heads.
But they saw a figure falling from the sky in front of them.
"Who are you?" Everyone was shocked. They had not noticed this person approaching before.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Nalant. You should have heard of me!" Nalant said with a smile.
"Narant? Intruder from the south?"
Commander Bei Tie was shocked.
"It seems that you have really heard of my name!"
Narante smiled and nodded.
"Since you are an intruder, what do you want to do when you come to Beitecheng alone?" Beitecheng led several people but still did not relax their guard.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not here with any ill intentions, but to help you!"
"Help us?" Everyone was confused after hearing this.
"Yes, I just heard that you want to go out of the city to fight to the death? To be honest, your courage is worthy of praise, but in terms of IQ, you are stupider than the orcs."
"What did you say?" Upon hearing this, several captains immediately glared at Nalant.
"Isn't it true? If you send out ten or twenty thousand people with your strength, I'm afraid they will be completely annihilated by the Storm Legion in less than twenty minutes."
"Isn't it stupid to kill ten or twenty thousand people just for a moment of anger?"
Nalant still smiled and spoke.
"So what if we die, even if we die, we must let the Storm Legion know that our people in the Flame Continent cannot be slaughtered by them."
Several captains were unconvinced.
"Haha, are you going to die just to prove yourself?"
"I want to say, no wonder your Flame Continent is suppressed by several legions of gods."
"Since you are not afraid of death, can't you think of ways to annihilate more enemies?"
"Your Excellency, what exactly do you want to say?" At this time, Commander Beitecheng, who had been silent until now, finally spoke again.
"What do I want to do? It's very simple. Do you want revenge?" Nalant stopped talking.
"Revenge? Of course we want to, but how to take revenge?" Commander Beitecheng stared closely into Nalant's eyes.
"This is simple, I'll teach you..."
Narant chuckled.
More than ten minutes later, behind Beitecheng.
A team of more than 300 people came from the direction of the Holy City.
Everyone in the team is wearing the uniforms of Flame Continent soldiers.
"Open the city gate quickly, the high priest is summoning you!"
"Sorry everyone, we can't open the city gate without Commander Bei Tie's order." Hearing this, the captain of the garrison on the city wall immediately refused.
"You damn fools, our prisoners in the Flame Continent managed to escape before, but you refused to save them."
"You dare to stop us from summoning us now. The high priest is furious. If you don't open the door again, you will be punished by the high priest!"
Upon hearing the rejection, the leader below immediately scolded him sharply.
"this……"
But hearing the high priest's anger, the city guard captain hesitated.
The previous massacre in front of the city had already reached here, and they felt aggrieved by it.
Now after hearing it, I will naturally not suspect it is fake.
After all, out of tens of thousands of prisoners, less than one-fifth of them may survive now.
"Damn it, open it quickly. The high priest summoned the commander of Beitecheng to send troops to help rescue the prisoners. If you delay any longer, those prisoners will die!"
Seeing the captain of the city guard hesitate below, he urged again.
The captain hesitated for a moment and finally decided to open the city gate. After all, there were only more than 300 people on the other side.
As long as I send someone to keep an eye on it later, there shouldn't be any problems.
So he immediately said to his men: "Open the city gate!"
As the city gate slowly opened, the cavalry team of more than 300 people immediately entered the city.
The leading cavalryman glanced at the city guard captain, "Where is your commander?"
"Your Excellency, the commander is at the front wall."
"Let's go to the front city wall!" The cavalryman who heard this waved his hand and rode away with his subordinates.
When the captain saw this, he immediately said to his subordinates: "Guard the city gate for me. I'll go and come back!" (End of Chapter)
