Chapter 505 Assassination
Bruno's method of entering Kerkyra City is still the teleportation array. Now it is during the battle, the city gates are closed, and the only way to enter the city is the teleportation array. Bruno selected the 20 best soldiers in the team, took them to the nearest small city, and then teleported into the city.
As soon as he left the teleportation formation, a large group of soldiers surrounded him. Even ordinary people in the teleportation formation cannot use it at this time. If they can’t tell their identities, even civilians who are irrelevant and mistakenly sit will be killed casually. It’s another mistake Don't let go of killing.
"I am the envoy of the Duke of Aquitaine. I have important information to tell the Duke of Martelli!" Bruno here immediately revealed his identity. die.
"Is it the emissary of the Grand Duke of Aquitaine? What is the password?" A man who looked like a captain immediately went up and asked, this is a big deal, and he dared not neglect it.
The two sides immediately exchanged codes, and sure enough, they matched up. The captain here was also relieved. It seemed that they were not enemies. Soon, the remaining 20 people also sent over, because they had been confirmed to be their own people, and they did not come out. Accident.
The captain looked at Bruno and asked, "What does the Grand Duke of Aquitaine say?"
"I must meet Grand Duke Martelli immediately. Where is the Grand Duke now?" Bruno said anxiously, looking very urgent.
"My lord duke is observing the battle situation on the east gate wall. I'll lead the way." Seeing that Bruno was in a hurry, it must be a very important matter, so he immediately said, "You all watch here, don't let suspicious people in."
"Yes!" The surrounding soldiers replied in unison.
Following the captain, Bruno came to the city wall above the east city gate. At this time, Martelli was anxiously watching the situation outside, seeing that his troops seemed to be unable to hold on. He is in a hurry. But looking at Li Huailin's troops in the distance, it seems that they are still fighting with Duke Lautner's troops (in fact, they are cutting corpses for fun). Martelli really hopes that Li Huailin's team will win quickly, or his own troops It's dangerous.
"My lord! The Grand Duke of Aquitaine sent an envoy!" The soldier next to him reported.
"Quick... please." Duke Martley said immediately. He was really anxious to death. Hoping for good news.
Soon Bruno was invited up, and Duke Martelli seemed to remember seeing this general when he went to Li Huailin's territory before. Because he looks like a strong player, I was a little impressed, so I relaxed a little.
"What's the matter with the Grand Duke of Aquitaine?" Martelli asked immediately.
"That's right,
Duke Martelli. Our marshal beheaded a general in the battle with Duke Lautner just now, and the other party's attire seemed a bit like Duke Lautner, but because no one in our entire army has seen Duke Lautner, it is not necessary If you know it, the marshal asked me to let you identify it. said Bruno.
"What?" Martelli was startled, Lautner is dead? This is real? That would be great, if the news is true. The battle with yourself has not been won. As for the fact that Li Huailin hadn't met Duke Lautner, Martelli didn't doubt too much. Li Huailin is a new nobleman, and it was the first time he saw Li Huailin last time. It's not surprising that she doesn't know Duke Lautner, and she didn't know that Li Huailin had pulled McCann from the Second Army to help, so she didn't have any doubts.
"Yes, the other party's head is here, please take a look, Your Excellency the Duke." Bruno said, pushing a wooden box forward.
"Quick! Let me see." Martelli was really in a hurry. He just got any good news now, but he didn't expect it to be such good news. The huge surprise made him instantly lose his ability to judge, and he took the initiative I went over to check the wooden box.
Bruno watched the other party come over and did not rush to make a move, but cast a glance at the man under him. The twenty soldiers next to him immediately approached the nearby guards slowly, and slowly touched the saber with their hands, ready to strike at any time.
Duke Martelli ran up to Bruno in a hurry, and immediately opened the wooden box. The head of Duke Lautner was naturally painted inside the box, but there were some bloodstains. Martelli took a closer look and was ecstatic in his heart.
"Yes! Yes! This... this is Duke Lautner's..."
With a "swish", the soldiers present were about to be happy when a sudden change suddenly occurred. Martelli's own head, who was checking the head, suddenly flew out, and then blood splattered everywhere.
A group of soldiers didn't react at all, because it happened so suddenly, how did they know that Li Huailin's troops would suddenly attack them and assassinate Duke Martley.
Before they could react from the shock, the twenty soldiers next to them drew their swords one after another, and slashed at the guards around them, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
"Don't be wary, the marshal is waiting for our heads!" Bruno picked up Martelli's head next to him, and then took back the head of Duke Lautner that was dropped during the sneak attack just now, and turned to the soldiers and shouted, "Follow me Get out!"
"What's the situation!" The captain of the city guard who brought Bruno quickly took out his weapon, and then stood in front of Bruno, "You are not sent by the Grand Duke of Aquitaine! You are a spy!"
"Stupid 13." Bruno smiled slightly. These guys still think that their marshal is a friendly army. What a bunch of idiots. While thinking, the movement in his hand was not slow, he raised his hand and slashed at the captain of the city guard with a sword.
"Kill them..." the captain of the city guard yelled while raising his sword to block Bruno's blow, but the actual situation was completely different from what he thought. Bruno's blow directly cut his saber into pieces. After two cuts, the sword still kept going, and with one strike, the captain's whole body was cut in two.
"Retreat!" Bruno continued to shout. Although there are fewer guards in the city now, there are still many more than them. Staying here is waiting for death.
Twenty soldiers immediately ran back towards the teleportation point. The remaining guards of Martelli also woke up from the shock. I chased after him.
"Captain, you go first, we will stop them here." Seeing the opposing troops rushing over, a dozen soldiers suddenly stepped out and shouted at Bruno.
"What! What are you talking about! Follow me and retreat!" Bruno said immediately.
"Captain, take the head back quickly, the marshal is still waiting for your news, we are willing to die for the marshal!" The group of soldiers raised their weapons and said.
Seeing the determination in the eyes of his subordinates, Bruno had mixed feelings, but it is indeed the marshal's order that is important now, so he nodded without hesitation and continued to rush towards the teleportation point with the head.
"Everyone! A second is a second! Long live the marshal!"
"Long live the marshal!" The remaining soldiers roared in unison, without any feeling of dying.
At the teleportation point of Corkyra City, the soldiers standing guard at the gate saw a person rushing towards them from a long distance. Now it is during the war, and ordinary citizens are not allowed to go to the streets. This is really obvious, and it also caused I caught their attention, but I walked in a little bit, and saw that this was not the emissary of the Grand Duke of Aquitaine just now? Why did you come back alone?
"Huh? Why did you come back alone? Where's the captain?" Seeing Bruno approaching, the guard next to him asked strangely.
Bruno naturally wouldn't answer, and continued to rush forward.
"Hey! Why are you covered in blood!" Soon someone discovered the problem and immediately shouted at Bruno.
"No! There is a situation! Stop, stop!" The soldiers next to him also immediately realized that something was wrong.
Bruno completely ignored them, raised his sword, cut down two soldiers who came up to stop him, and rushed directly into the teleportation point.
"Stop him! Stop him!" The remaining soldiers immediately shouted at the guards inside.
"What's the situation!" The guards inside were also alarmed, but as soon as they went out to see what was going on, a guy covered in blood rushed towards him. Although he didn't know what was going on, this guy was not a good person , the guard here immediately raised his spear, "Stop! Don't move!"
Bruno saw that there were too many opponents, so he immediately looked to the side, and there happened to be a large solid wood table next to him. Bruno picked up the table and threw it at the soldiers in front of him.
"Damn it!" Seeing the situation, the soldiers quickly hid to the side. It was not a big deal to be hit, but it was an opportunity for the formation to be disrupted. Bruno quickly accelerated, and then jumped into the teleportation point.
"Stab him to death!"
A group of soldiers immediately raised their spears and stabbed at Bruno. Bruno quickly activated the teleportation array, and there was a white light, leaving some blood on the teleportation point, but Bruno had already teleported away.
"This... What the hell is going on here? Isn't this guy the emissary of the Grand Duke of Aquitaine?" Bruno left. The soldiers who don't know what happened now don't know what to do. What should they do now? To chase, or not to chase? The captain disappeared again at this time, so I asked who was going.
At this moment, the guards chasing Bruno arrived, looked at a group of soldiers standing stupidly, and asked, "Where is the person? Where is the person who claims to be the envoy of the Grand Duke of Aquitaine?"
"Go away in the teleportation array." A soldier replied.
"You bastards! Your Excellency the Duke was assassinated, he is the assassin!" The guard immediately shouted.
"What! The Duke is dead?" The news was so explosive that everyone was stunned instantly.
Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak. After a while, a soldier here asked weakly, "I... what should we do now?"
"How the hell do I know?" No one can decide at all, and now no one knows what to do.
