Section 23 Bell Cade
On the morning of April 15, the rain in Harrance Heights for half a month finally stopped, but the mood of the nobles of Harrence Heights was still rainy weather.
Three full days had passed since the 'declaration of war' from the new ruler of Fort Kawal, Pedy Reagan, and the eighteen named lords of the Harrens Heights felt as if winter had suddenly entered their bodies, and a chill was eating away at their bodies.
The eighteen lords sought reinforcements everywhere, and the four major lords and all the local lords sent their own letters. However, three days passed without a single nobleman replying to them definitively.
After all, this is a matter of the fate of the family, and no nobleman dares to joke with the fate of the family!
...
At eight o'clock in the morning of the 16th, more than 20,000 soldiers of the four corps hidden between the Ukalo Forest stripped off their camouflage and pounced on the nearest CapitaLand with lightning speed!
The whole of Harrance Heights shook.
The lords did not expect Pedi to act so quickly and decisively, and some nobles were even looking forward to the negotiations.
But that's not all...
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, in the northwest of Harrence Heights and in the south of the Fort Herien area, on the sunny and green continuous meadows, forests, and farmsteads that winded for dozens of miles, the military formation with battle flags was slowly advancing. On the battle flag, the elegantly embroidered white orchids are connected into a sea of white with the waving of the flag, like a moving dream garden.
This is the battle flag of the Lockton family of Fort Herain!
This is the army of Viscount Bane and his retainers of the House of Lockton!
This is an establishment of 15,000 legions (the number of the original Kru Third Legion has been disbanded under the order of Peidi), and the number of accompanying laborers responsible for logistics and transportation is as high as more than 50,000!
This large marching column is Viscount Bane's reply to Pedy, who will keep his ancient oath and send troops to 'help' the Reagan family put down the rebellion in Harrence Heights!
Viscount Bane did not heed Pedy's order to attack with a small number of troops, and he announced to the entire Crewe Territory that Fort Herien would intervene in the war.
Subsequently, Hallensburg, Bernburg, and Cowindburg all publicly announced their support for Castle Kawald's decision!
The statement of the four autonomous territories immediately made the nobles who were watching immediately cut off the idea of helping Bell Cade and the others, and the remaining nobles of the Crewe Territory also issued announcements one after another, supporting all the decisions of Kawalburg.
It was as if the war had been won.
...
Ten o'clock in the morning of the 18th.
Outside Cade led Ray Presburg, the main force of 20,000 troops of Fort Caval surrounded the castle.
In the past few days, the name of this castle has resounded throughout the Crewe Territory and reached the upper nobles of the Empire, and even the orcs and elves from afar have begun to pay attention to this war.
But the way he became famous was too far from what Bell Cade imagined.
Is Bell Cade regretting?
Of course, he regretted it immensely now.
But he never thought it was his fault!
He wouldn't have laid down his arms and groveled to Pedy Reagan to apologize.
...
In the middle of the solemn array of the two sides, Wren wore a knight's uniform and rode a swarthy Krewe-led warhorse, staring coldly at Belle Cade on the walls of Represburg.
Wren was still sickly pale at the moment, caused by excessive blood loss from his injury a few days ago, and his wound had almost healed under Pedy's own treatment. Today, Pedi has asked him to represent Fort Caval to negotiate with Bell Cade... Or persuasion.
"Bell Cade's title of nobility has long since been withdrawn..."Wren raised his head and pointed at the knights on the castle tower in the tone of a superior person, "You... And your allegiance now is nothing more than a civilian..."
Bell Caeder trembled with anger, "Shut up, you damn pariah, the nobility and honor of knights are not something that a pariah like you can understand, don't think that you are a nobleman after embroidering the family crest on the neckline, you don't understand what a nobleman is." ”
"Haha!" Wren laughed, "look around you, is this what you mean by nobility?"
"Damn untouchables!" Bell Cade was poked in pain, and he desperately snatched the bow and arrow carried by the archers next to him, skillfully bending his bow and pulling the arrows.
"Whoosh!"
"Ding!"
The arrow was bounced off by the defensive magic on Wren's clothes, and Wren didn't have a trace of panic on his face, he simply spread out his hand and let Bell Cade shoot him.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Soon, Bell Cade shot a pot of arrows, but none of the corners of Wren's clothes were broken.
"Is this your aristocratic manners?" Wren turned to the soldiers behind him with a mocking smile on his face, "See? This is Bell Cade, like a clown show at this year's New Year's party?"
"Haha!" the officers and soldiers burst into laughter. At first, just the officers and soldiers near Rennes were laughing, but soon the laughter spread throughout the army!
The laughter and curses of more than 20,000 people almost shook the surrounding woods.
Bell Cade was even more angry and scolded on the city wall regardless of his image.
...
In the command tower of the Chinese army in Fort Caval, Pedi calmly listened to the noisy curses around him, he had become accustomed to the noise in the barracks that seemed to burst his eardrums.
"How long do you think Bell Cade will last?" asked Pedy as he asked Sir Sir Sila next to him.
"In less than five minutes, he'll open the castle and rush out!" the old woman's voice interrupted Sir Cilla's reply, causing Pedi to turn his head.
It was Baron Hanina, who arrived at the barracks yesterday at Pedy's invitation.
She disappeared into the city of Suke after the Disbandment of the Radiant Force, and later secretly came to Crewe. The original chief of Peidi seemed to have aged dozens of years all of a sudden, his original golden hair was almost all gray, and his relatively healthy body was getting thinner and thinner.
Hannina calmly faced the gaze of Pedi and Knight Syra, "Bell Cade was taught to be honorable above all else, his father wanted him to become a real nobleman, he had always done well before, but unfortunately he was arrogant and had too much self-esteem. ”
"Most of the young people are arrogant, and every nobleman has a great sense of self-esteem!" Peddy shrugged.
Baron Hanina smiled undeniably: "The aristocratic education has taken Bell Cade breathless, the process of taking over his father's authority is a bit abrupt, he is too eager to show himself, he originally just wanted to show his face in front of many nobles"
"Are you pitying him?" the look on Sirah Marne's face revealed that she didn't agree with this view, "Do you know how many people are involved in this war because of Bell Cade?"
"He's just a kid!" Baron Hannina glanced at Siala Marne, "you look at him now, he has no idea that he has made an unforgivable mistake. She seemed to remind Pedi and said to herself, "Someone is controlling him, someone who doesn't even know he is controlling him." ”
Sira Marne, of course, knew the intrigues and tricks involved, and her eyes shifted from Baron Hannina to Pedi, "I don't care who is controlling him, I just want to fix this matter quickly." ”
Hannina tilted her head sideways and looked at Ciara with a pair of small wrinkled eyes, and asked, "Is this your point of view, or the point of view of the Marne family?" ”
"Hmph!" said Syrah-Marne coldly, "I am now the deputy commander of the Knight Guard of the Kavalburg court, who do you say I represent?"
"Bell Cade's fatal mistake was not to challenge my bottom line. "Everyone needs to pay for their bad decisions, even the Emperor. ”
Pedi suddenly thought of the mistakes he had made in this series of events, and now this war was paying for the mistakes he had made.
"Yes, just... Bell Cade couldn't help it!" Baron Hannina was halfway through his words, and the chains of the Represtburg Gate Bridge in front of him suddenly turned slowly.
Bell Cade actually took the initiative to fall off the suspension bridge.
"Bell Cade is doomed. Rather than laugh at Bell Cade, Sheila Marne commented: "If I were him, I would have lowered the drawbridge for a decent fight." ”
"Not everybody agrees with that. Hannina shook her head, "Take a closer look at the situation on the city walls. ”
...
On the walls of Repres, the knights of the Bell Cade family are divided into two factions, most of whom are willing to follow Bell Cade in a battle to the death, while some do not agree to do so.
Two groups of people quarreled on the city walls!
Under their quarrel, the drawbridge turned up and down several times, and the morale of the soldiers defending the city fell to the bottom.
"You idiots!" Bell Cade roared, 'banging' his saber out as one of the objectors sliced his chest and all the squabbling stopped as the blood sprayed blood. But Bell Cade didn't stop, he continued to swing the short sword in his hand...
After a few seconds, all the opponents were lying in pools of blood.
Bell Cade's immature face was covered with blood, he took a deep breath and calmly tore off the soft cloth inside the corpse of a knight to wipe the bloodstains while whispering coldly: "No matter how cowardly you dare to speak nonsense, or cowards who retreat in battle, all of them will be killed on the spot!"
...
Soon, the drawbridge fell again, and this time no one stopped it.
Wren turned his head to look at his central barracks, where the flag-bearer in the high position was telling him that he could retreat.
At the command platform of the Chinese army in Fort Caval, Pedi's eyes kept on the slowly falling drawbridge, and at the same time ordered: "Let Wren lead the hoplites to meet the attack, and the two wings of the Guards Corps to cover." ”
At the same time as the long horn sounded, the herald began to run back and forth in the military column, conveying Pedi's orders. The heavy cavalry regiment was soon out of rank, and Wren drove at the head of the line with his back up in the envious eyes of everyone.
Two minutes later,
The drawbridge at Represburg was lowered, and Bel Cade took the lead in riding a fancy Crewe-led warhorse.
"Life is battle, battle is glory!" Bell Cade shouted what his father had always taught him, holding his spear and looking at the knights of his oath, "Fight!"
"Fight!
In the cacophony of Peddy's ears, the roars of Bell Cade and his Knights of Oath were clear, his eyes flashed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart that he really wished that Bell Cade could be as loyal to him and fight for him as his father was to his brother!
But reality is often cruel, and cruelty is reality!
As Bell Cade's army galloped out of the castle, Pedi commanded the standard-bearers on the right and left, "Honor Bear Cade's death!" (https:)
