Thank you very much for reading Dad's 588, 588, 100, and 100 rewards for reading Dad!

"Don't move!"

Quentin rushed with a row.

Earl Frank turned back, and I saw Quentin with the remaining three nobles in the city and led a lot of elite pressing.

The crossbow climbed to the roof, and each of them locked him firmly.

"Count Frank." Quentin was sweating on his forehead. He saw that the momentum of the city gate was curbed and began to rise slowly. It was obviously relieved:

"Now, please and your troops to let go of the weapon, let's talk slowly behind!"

There was a sound of doubt that Frank's soldiers were a little dazed. I don't know why they were ready to attack and why they were stopped.

Frank lifted the noodle, sprayed a sigh of heat, and stared at Quentin's eyes.

At this time, Quentin rushed over so urgently, apparently noticing something.

But the opportunity is always fleeting. Once Lei Wen is suspicious, there is no possibility of hitting the Eagle Army again!

Therefore, even if you don't look at Quentin, Count Frank still breathe deeply and sincerely:

"Marshal, now it's not the time to speak."

"Please let go of the city gate and let me rush once. After we go out, you put away the city gate again!"

The horizontal flesh on Quentin shook, and he clenched some sweaty palms.

As early as the day Ren and Frank met, he knew the news, but he had been hidden.

He found that Frank and Ren must have reached some kind of transaction.

However, without any evidence, he was proclaimed or went to Frank to confront each other, and he would only hit the grass and shocked the snake, causing Frank and Ren to be vigilant.

This is why he wants to hide Avol 8.

With Quentin's understanding of the Grand Duke, if he told him this matter, then Avol would be known.

Without the battlefield, a count was secretly colluding with the other party. This was too sensational that when the situation in the city would be out of control.

It is better to observe the evidence while observing it until a hammer.

So Quentin has endured it now.

While Frank left, he sent someone to search for his room, and finally got a half -seal from the flames that did not burn without burning.

The content of the letter is only half, but it is enough to surprise Quentin-

Frank is going to open the door.

!,, 咚! Intersection Intersection

A boulder was thrown into the city by the stone stone, splashing dust.

Quentin swallowed his mouth, as if hearing the footsteps of the eagle forces outside the city wall.

Thinking of the city door open and those fierce eagle as the devil rushed into the city, Quentin was almost nervous and could not think about:

"Earl Frank, please close the troops immediately, let go of the weapon, let's go back and talk slowly!"

Exit again, but the tone is more stiff, it is like being frozen.

"There is no time, Marshal!" Frank waved his sword subconsciously, but immediately saw that the crossbowmen on the roof entered the posture to be excited, so they had to put down their weapons and pleaded loudly:

"No matter what you found, no matter how you deal with me afterwards, I am willing!"

"Let me rush once now, can I?"

This performance made Quentin a moment of stance -I really misunderstood Frank?

Indeed, everything looks too coincidental.

If Frank really colludes with Levin, how could it be careless to leave half of the stationery, and it was full of key information?

But it can be explained by coincidence, maybe Frank panicked.

Most importantly, Frank has this motivation.

Because he is a man in Gatgen.

Gatuggen has controlled the political situation of Evol for 20 years.

And he is old, and he is likely to walk in front of Avol VIII. With the relationship between the two of them, Evol VIII will definitely liquidate his forces after Gato's death.

Today, if Frank deliberately put Leiwen into the city and created a failed war, the commander of this war was his Quentin.

Marshal appointed by the Grand Duke himself.

Then Gatugen can take this opportunity to put the responsibility of this and the failure of the previous war, all on Evol Eighth, forcing him to abdicate!

Choose another new Grand Duke.

More young and more obedient.

"Well ..." Seeing Quentin's expressionless face, Frank sighed.

He knew that he couldn't say that he had moved each other.

It's really unwilling to slip away like this.

But at present, there are no other ways. Continue to fight hard, it will only attract civil strife and weaken the strength of the city.

"I know ..." Frank sighed helplessly.

It was about to order the soldiers to let go of their weapons, and suddenly a whistling came.

But it was not unusual to throw the boulder by throwing the boulder.

But a stone was scratched through the wall and rushed into the building complex under the wall with the arc.

He smashed 4 soldiers, and then hit a private house full of crossbow players.

In the sound of the bombardment, the house collapsed, and the crossbowmen on the top of the crossbow fell down.

Perhaps it was a moment of nervousness, or maybe he didn't want to borrow it subconsciously, and a crossbowman suddenly buckled the crossbow machine.

The enchanting crossbow of the filling broke through the air, and it pierced into the shoulder of Frank, an unsatisfactory Frank!

"Who-who did it!?" Quentin was so scared that his legs and feet trembled, and he was about to tell people not to do it.

However, as soon as he raised his arm, he was pulled back by a nobleman next to him.

That was the only marquis in the city, the Marquis of Aragon. He had a pale face and a bright red tongue sticking out of his lips, like the tongue of a poisonous snake:

"Kill him, Marshal!"

"What, what?" Quentin was stunned.

The Marquis of Aragon spoke in a low voice, but his speed was so fast that he seemed to want to pour his words into Quentin's head:

"This war cannot be won, and the evidence in your hand is not enough to kill Frank."

"Now that it has become like this, even if Frank will give up, Gatugen will not let you go. He has long disliked you!"

"Only by killing him can we make a solid case and put all the responsibility for the fall of the city on him!"

Quentin's heart tightened, and he subconsciously said: "But in this way, the Duchy-"

Aragon said: "Take care of yourself first, Marshal! You want to consider the Duchy, Gatugen will also consider the Duchy, but will your answers be the same!?"

Buzz--

Quentin's mind was blank.

Yes, if it is for the Duchy, then he should not be the Grand Marshal, and Eivor VIII should abdicate on the spot!

But do I really have to kill Frank here?

Although they usually disagree, Frank is a——

"Count Frank intends to betray his country and collude with Raven, the nightmare, to open the city gate!" Aragorn shouted loudly, and had already made a decision on behalf of Quentin:

"Kill!!!"

The already nervous archers almost subconsciously launched an attack.

Sharp arrows rained down.

Facing the rain of arrows, Frank had a layer of fighting spirit on his body, but it dissipated immediately.

Forget it...

Indeed, if he resisted, these crossbows could not hurt him, and he could even lead his troops to launch a counterattack.

But what's the point of that?

It would only waste the blood of the Eivor people before the city fell. Whether he won or lost, he would be cursed as a traitor by the Principality of Eivor forever.

With a clang, the long sword fell to the ground.

Count Frank closed his eyes.

"It's a pity that I won't see the day when Eivor drives away foreign enemies..."

Even though there were guards blocking him, the dense rain of arrows still took Frank's life.

There was an indelible bloodstain on the ground.

"The traitor has been executed!!!" Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Quentin gradually came back to his senses. He did not dare to look at Frank's body, but shouted loudly:

"Now, all the soldiers of the Mountain King Corps, lay down your weapons and accept the investigation! As long as you are innocent, we guarantee that you will not be implicated in any way!"

However, what greeted him were pairs of angry and bloodshot eyes.

The Mountain King Corps was the elite that Frank had pulled out.

The most important thing was that many of the disloyal people had been excluded from the team through the names given by Raven.

Someone roared:

"Revenge for Lord Frank!!!"

"Kill——"

The shouting and killing of thousands of people was enough to change the color of the mountains and rivers and shake the earth! ! !

The Mountain King Corps immediately charged at the army brought by Quentin and others!

Quentin and his men had never expected this change at all - the struggle between the nobles always looked tender and affectionate, and bringing a group of crossbowmen was just in case.

The number of ground troops was not large to begin with, and they were completely unable to resist the attack of the Mountain King Legion in a hurry.

"Shoot, shoot!!!" Quentin shouted and ordered the crossbowmen.

No mistake, one sentence, one shot, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

Corpses fell one after another in the enchanted arrows, but they could not stop more soldiers of the Mountain King Legion from rushing forward and beheading Quentin and others' soldiers!

At this moment.

Dong——

A loud noise came, and the city gate that should have been retracted to the city wall crashed to the ground.

Dust flew everywhere!

At the other end of the city gate drawbridge, there were the Eagle Army with shining helmets and sharpened knives!

How could the city gate be opened at this time! ?

The doubts were solved the moment Quentin saw the wind kings flying on the city wall.

Raven actually used the same trick again, letting the wind king troops carry the elite and raid the city wall!

Quentin panicked, trying to save the broken situation:

"Stop fighting, stop fighting! I am the Marshal of the Duchy, I pardon all of you!"

"Turn around now, stop the Eagle Army, stop them!!!"

But his voice was drowned in the chaos.

Not many people could hear it——

Even if they heard it, what would happen?

The rebellion has begun, how could it stop before seeing enough blood! ?

"Run, Marshal, run!!" Aragorn shouted:

"It can't be defended!!!"

Can't be defended?

Quentin was a little confused, and then he realized it.

Yes, it can't be defended.

The Eagle Army is entering the city.

The defenders on the city wall fell down like sawdust from carpentry work.

The crowd was rushing in his direction, the Mountain King Legion was killing, and his soldiers were retreating.

Everything was unstoppable like an erupting volcano.

Then, Quentin saw Frank's body - full of arrows, with his loyal soldiers lying beside him.

An inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

Yes, he knew that this city could not be defended.

But why, when all this happened, he still felt a kind of...

Reluctance?

Before Quentin could fully react, Marquis Aragon had already pulled his reins, turned his horse's head and began to gallop northward!

The cold wind blew across his cheeks, which was particularly stinging, leaving two ice marks on his face.

And with the defeat of Quentin and other nobles, the entire Bolan City fell into chaos. The four gates were wide open, and the defenders no longer cared about their duties. They threw away their armor and fled out of the city.

If you look from a high place, the entire Bolan City is like a broken wooden box, with ants pouring out in an endless stream.

At the north gate of Bolan City, Eric had already led 1,000 heavy cavalry and waited here.

A victory without suspense.

In the south of the Principality of Eivor, the last barrier guarding the capital Blue Castle fell.

From a strategic point of view, Raven has a springboard directly to Blue Castle. From here, at most 20 days, he can reach the city of Blue Castle!

As the geographical center of the Principality of Eivor, the importance of Bolan City is beyond words.

Starting from here, going east, you can bypass the natural moat of the Gordon River and attack the Fonterdam and North Gordon River regions from the back; going west, you can block the road from the Krug region surrounded by mountains to the Blue Castle, blocking the lifeline of transportation in the southeast of the Principality of Eivor.

From now on, the 12 regions in the central and southern parts of the Principality of Eivor, nearly 2/3 of the land, will be left to the army of the Nord Province to gallop!

When Raven entered the city, the sky had already darkened. Except for a few fire points in the city, the chaos was basically quelled.

Count Frank's body was collected and placed aside.

"...This world." Raven shook his head and sighed.

Loyal people died at the hands of their own people, but the real traitors who brought disaster to the country escaped with their lives.

After sighing and thinking for a while, Raven gave the order:

"Take care of his body, send it back to his territory, give him 2,000 gold coins, and then..."

As he spoke, a light flashed on Raven's fingers, and a golden ornament appeared in his hand. It was the enchanted amulet with "Ode to Courage" that Raven had made before:

"...Send this thing as well, as a token of my appreciation."

"Yes, sir!" The hyena bowed and accepted the order.

That night, Raven moved into the castle and issued many orders at the first time.

Building a Jingguan and cutting off thumbs were almost orders that did not need to be repeated.

The most important one was to open the granary and provide food for the residents in the city.

Raven came to conquer this place, not to massacre this place.

He thought he was not a good person, but he was much better than the nobles in this world. At least he would not do such a bastard thing as guarding a large amount of food and watching his fellows starve to death.

Of course, these foods were not given for free.

Next, he planned to organize the residents in the city to clean up the streets first.

You know, there are not only corpses on the streets, but also a lot of... excrement and urine.

Let's not talk about building a civilized city, at least we have to live in an environment where it is not easy to get sick, right?

Air and water can't be specially supplied.

After issuing one order after another, it was almost dark.

Raven stood up and stretched, yawned, unbuttoned his collar, and walked to the bed.

As soon as he threw his coat on the bed, he heard a slightly greasy and hoarse female voice: "It's not a good habit not to clean your body before going to bed."

Raven's fingers froze, and his eyes fell on the shadow in the corner of the room.

It was a woman.

But judging by her figure, she didn't look like a woman.

She was 2 meters tall, and her plump long legs clamped the front of the wizard's robe, and the tender meat in the black suspender fishnet stockings squeezed out like tofu.

In line with her figure, her exaggeratedly large and plump breasts were squeezed by the arms around her chest, and they were so soft that they almost covered her forearms.

Under the pointed wizard hat was a face like a silver plate, mostly covered by shadows, with no eyebrows or eyes, but making her plump lips look even more charming.

Her delicate hands held a goblet, which could fill the palm of an ordinary man, but in her hands it was as small as a candy.

Gulp.

After drinking the wine in the glass, the woman stood up, walked out of the shadows, and said with a smile: "Nice to meet you, Baron Raven."

"You can call me——

Q."
