A charming voice suddenly sounded: "What are you doing here...... It's a great place to connect. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As soon as the words fell, a bewitching and plump sexy woman walked out of the shadows, clapping her hands and smiling as she walked: "I was discovered by you just arrived, Your Excellency has a strong sense of perception." ”

The decadent middle-aged man snorted, stroked the sword and said, "The swordsmanship is stronger, do you want to try it?" ”

While the sword was rattling, the city lord crawled out of the tunnel with difficulty without knowing whether he was alive or dead, and said with a big tongue as he crawled: "Elvis...... You guy...... Think...... Want to fall me to death? ”

The Decadent Swordsman's face immediately darkened.

This old thing doesn't know whether to live or die.

Drink stupid?

――――――――――――――――――――――

Under the command of General Schugmann, the advance army of the Holy See was defeated and retreated, but its vitality was not damaged.

As soon as he gained a firm foothold, he picked up a dangerous place far away from the city of Said and set up a strong camp.

The Papal Army then began to collect the defeated forces and continued to block the main communication routes.

There were occasional skirmishes between the two armies.

However, if the attack was dispatched, the Seidan army would lose more than win, and the Holy See army would not be able to take advantage of the siege war, so the two armies began a "sit-down war" in which they did not move.

In the "sit-down battle", the city of Said was able to step up the training of soldiers, consolidate the city's defenses, and mobilize the city's residents to help defend the city.

The condition of the Papal Army was not bad, and their camp received supplies of food, ordnance, and troops from the rear almost every day, and the benefits of a truce were even greater.

In addition, they always left a place for the Sedran army to escape.

That's the port north of the city.

Although Sede is still under curfew, the military and civilians in the city are also in a stable mood under the protection of the princess, and it can even be said that their morale is high.

However, almost every day, a large number of people fleeing the chaos with their families and mouths fleeing from the northern port.

As a result, fewer and fewer ships remained in the local area.

As a commercial city, the war made the market unprofitable.

In addition to some arms and grain merchants who were ready to make war profits, the number of foreign merchant ships was almost extinct.

――――――――――――――――――――――

Knowing that the behavior of the Holy See rebels was to break the fighting spirit of the defenders, the clerk Yuli was really moved.

More and more, she wanted Her Royal Highness to escape first.

It was a lonely city with no rescuers, and the soldiers defending the city were qualitatively problematic and far from being able to support the fight against the rebels.

If you continue to be trapped like this, there is little hope.

And Port Said did not have a fleet, only some armed anti-smuggling ships.

If this continues, if the sea is blocked by the Holy See one day, even if you want to, you won't be able to escape.

But Her Royal Highness didn't mean that at all.

She seems to prefer to sleep these days, and she just takes a nap in the yard while basking in the sun when she has nothing to do, and she is misty and leisurely.

Yuri, as a close minister, begged the princess to escape many times, but each time she was rejected with a smile.

Also, refusing to leave the army and the people and flee by themselves, this is the princess she respects and loves, isn't it?

For today's plan, there is only one step at a time.

――――――――――――――――――――

Just when the princess army thought that the Holy See army was going to carry out a long-term siege, on the seventh day of the siege, the Holy See army drove under the city of Said again.

The tragic siege battle began again.

This time, the attack was still on the southern wall, which was not protected by the sea.

The two armies, still lacking heavy weapons, began the battle with sparse sparse stolen slings and artillery bombardment, followed by a dense rain of arrows like a plague of locusts.

It seems that most of the Papal reinforcements were well-trained archers, not to mention the number of arrows, and the arrows were shot fast and far, and the number of arrows fired from the city was several times that of the defenders.

In this round of attack, the generally untrained city defense troops at the head of the city, although they took advantage of the condescending advantage, still suffered a big loss, and finally had to hide behind the pheasant and in the caves of the hidden soldiers.

The counterattack at the head of the city is getting weaker and weaker, and the attacks from below are becoming more and more unscrupulous.

Soon, several siege ram wagons were out of range of the head of the city under the cover of the shield-wielding phalanx, and the troops who seemed to be preparing to climb the city also carried a large number of ladders on either side of the siege ram troops.

The defenders began to get nervous, and the soldiers in the hiding cave began to run to the prepared earth, boiling water, boiling oil, torches, etc., and regained their positions.

Although the Papal Army's attack this time seems to be more prepared than the last one, as long as this shabby-looking city wall is guarded, this battle will actually have to be fought for the defenders.

Reserves from all over the city also drove as fast as they could to the southern wall, and the clerk Yuri was among them.

This time, she got a few giant magic puppets that she got from the local tyrant Bailuo City Lord, and planned to show off her skills well and share the worries of her sweetheart.

However, the Papal Army, which had completed the formation, did not attack for a long time, and still maintained the attack of arrow rain.

Anything can happen in war, and that's not a strange thing.

The soldiers defending the city took the opportunity to continue to repair in concealment and conserve their strength.

Yuri also began to meditate and wait.

At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound of magic cannons in the north.

"Oops!"

――――――――――――――――――――――――

It turned out that although everyone thought that Ragerd's army would take about a month to reach the battlefield at the earliest, just as he quickly sent an advance army to fight and catch him off guard, he cobbled together a fleet this time, and selected tens of thousands of cathars to follow this papal fleet south on hundreds of troop carriers, and chose to attack Saide from the north and south with the advance army today.

This time, the advance army of the Holy See in the south of the city made such a big battle, in fact, it was to cover the fleet.

The reason why they have not sent warships to block the sea before is not only to facilitate the escape of the soldiers and civilians in the city to disrupt the morale of the army, but more importantly, to paralyze the defenders and make them think that the Holy See will not attack from the sea from the north.

At this time, the attention of the whole city was successfully attracted to the south, and the Holy See fleet took the opportunity to rush out, and hundreds of magic cannons mounted on both sides of the battleship opened fire in unison, bombarding the northern city wall that had been built in this time to the ground, and collapsed several sections.

The already small defenders at the head of the city also suffered heavy casualties.

The sparse number of guns on the northern shore landed sparsely and after a few firing back, they were all destroyed.

The troop transports began to rush onto the beach, the hatches opened, and the soldiers of the Holy See rushed out of the cabins and rushed to the city walls.

The real offensive of the Papal army has only just begun.

The walls of the city, which had been opened wide and undefended, were quickly crossed, and now that the defenders were brought back, they could only enter into street fighting.

The low quality of the individual soldiers of the city defense force showed its effect at this time, and within a few hours, most of the block of Sede had already fallen into the hands of the Holy See army.

Several troops, led by the Knights Templar, headed straight south to capture the walls from the inside, and the soldiers of the advance army outside the city, who had already been defeated for a while, were also eager to overcome the city and began to attack the city.

In just half a day, the city of Said, which had defeated the Holy See army seven days earlier, was about to fall completely.

It's so fast that everyone is unprepared.

――――――――――――――――

It was still on the hill outside the city that the flag of the Holy See Army was once again erected.

General Schugmann still stands under the banner of Shuai.

Only this time he was no longer the commander-in-chief, but stood behind an old man in heavy armor and carrying a giant sword with a large group of generals and staff officers.

Looking at the tall, strong, and energetic old man in military uniform in front of him, his heart was full of humility and admiration.

General Schugman understands politics and knows that the situation in the empire is very unstable now, and if his people come here later, I am afraid that it will not only be a "rebel army" led by a traitor to the Holy See.

At that time, the smoke will be everywhere, and the Holy See may even be completely destroyed.

But he would be mistaken. There was actually someone else who really formulated the grand strategy and persuaded Pope Charles I to make up his mind to take Princess Elizabeth by force.

However, Commander Ragerd, who was the actual executor, was able to march here before everyone could react, and almost captured Saide in less than half a day, and he was worthy of the title of the first god general of the Holy See.

――――――――――――――――――――――

The Pope's nephew, the priest Locke, also had the privilege of watching the battle from this best vantage point, standing in the midst of Ragerd's large retinue of generals.

The priest Helen was not there, because she had been thinking about tea and dinner these days, and she wanted to run away several times, and was coercively placed under house arrest in the barracks by Locke.

At this time, although Locke's eyes were watching Said's battle, his thoughts were already flying.

He was thinking about his gains and losses after the battle, and reflecting on what he had not done well.

Suddenly, a beautiful starlight shot into the sky, pulling him back from his distraction.

He couldn't help but admire: "Every time I look at it, it's so eye-catching." My distant cousin really doesn't deserve her. ”
