Chapter Fifty-Nine: Foolish Siege
Chapter 59: Foolish Siege
The ground has become a little drier, at least the heavy wheels of the carriage will not sink directly into it when passing over it, Duke Raymond is very excited, and now he will feel very worried as long as he stays in Fort Piga, which belongs to him for a day, especially when Moore sent him a letter urging him to leave Taxia Province as soon as possible, because the Spanish led the coalition forces have captured the headquarters of the North Sea Fleet, Raymond gritted his teeth angrily, sure enough, the most heroic thing in the empire is always the navy, But if the navy goes to land, it will also become a pile of useless war scum.

Raymond arranged for his private soldiers to escort him out of this place as soon as possible, the gold and silver treasures were filled with a total of forty carriages, and the number of 20,000 private soldiers walked out of the city on the main road of Fort Piga, and the civilians who hated Fort Pika wanted to cut Raymond with a thousand knives, but the other party basically didn't care about all this at all, as long as he could leave the north as soon as possible, and the efficiency of the empire was really slow, and he hadn't seen the shadow of the army for several days, was he planning to let Taxia Province be taken by the Spaniards?
"Oh no, Grand Duke, did we go out of the city first, the carriage was robbed by pirates." The butler came to Raymond gasping for breath, originally sitting on a gentle horse, thinking about how he should live a luxurious life after going to the capital, this treasure is enough to squander himself, but he can't live this kind of lord's life, after all, it is a city where the emperor exists, even a duke has to live carefully.
But now the butler's words shocked Duke Raymond into a cold sweat: "What's the matter, what are you kidding me, pirates will rob Fort Piga, here is more than two hundred kilometers away from the coast, what pirates are they crazy?" Raymond yelled, it was as ridiculous as seeing a camel at sea, and even if the pirates had a convulsive brain and came here to rob a duke, 20,000 private soldiers were enough to send this group to hell.
"It's indeed pirates, I also saw them holding high the black pirate flag, it's obvious that the duke's action of transporting treasure this time has made this group of pirates more excited, otherwise they wouldn't have left the sea they relied on to survive and ran to land to rob."
Raymond forcibly suppressed the irritability in his heart, even if it was a pirate, the number of people would definitely not be too much, and the total number of the entire North Sea Fleet of the empire was less than 40,000, after all, the battle at sea could not be won by numbers, and this was the same compared to the pirates, but on land, the number of pirates could not compete with their own 20,000 soldiers, and they could be crippled with a single look.
Thinking of this, Raymond felt a sense of power in his heart, but at the same time, he felt very angry, what kind of pirate dared to run to the land to rob a duke.
"Who is it?"
"Look at the pattern of the black pirate flag, it should be the demon of the North Sea, the pirates under Davy Jones."
Raymond was even more surprised, he basically had nothing to do with Davy Jones, and he had nothing to do with it, why would the other party suddenly choose to rob his wealth? Or is he already targeted by Davy Jones and has planned to choose to rob himself at such a time?
"When a pirate arrives on the ground, it's like a salted fish, so is it true that the soldiers at the front are all waste? Will they snatch it away? Raymond roared angrily, as long as the other party snatched the slightest bit of these belongings, Raymond felt that his heart was dripping blood.
"The convoy is too long, the private soldiers are too busy to take care of it, and the number of pirates in front of them is simply not enough, this time there are at least two thousand pirates, which is half the number that David Jones brought out from his base camp."
"Humph! He's looking for death. ”
Raymond didn't take Davy Jones seriously at the moment, even if the North Sea of the empire spread all over the legends about David Jones, he didn't care, he didn't have any fear at all, 20,000 soldiers against 2,000 pirates, on land it was equivalent to the enemy losing a way out, it was easier than crushing a group of bugs.
"They're going to take my belongings, it's not that simple, let all the private soldiers take them back for me, kill them all if they're pirates, and I'll let them know what the consequences of angering an Imperial Duke are." In fact, Raymond's approach seems to be like an idiot in military affairs, if 20,000 soldiers rush over en masse, not only will the speed not be increased, but the progress will be even slower, the convoy will be vulnerable without protection, and the gates of Fort Pigar alone will be crowded by them.
Raymond thought that he should punish the arrogant pirate named David Jones, and it was best to defeat the legend of his North Sea Demon, so that maybe the emperor would reward himself in the capital, and go out of a cancer on the sea, but unfortunately, the beauty of imagination is often different from reality.
His subordinate commander hurriedly ran over to report to him a particularly bad news, the mysterious army attacked the relatively weak north gate with basically no defense, and now most of the soldiers gathered at the south gate and rushed out, the pirates didn't know where to escape, Raymond blinked and felt that the world was spinning.
"Who is it? Who are these people? Raymond gasped and felt terrible, and even the fire seemed to be faintly visible in the rear, could it be that the Spanish coalition had attacked.
"Haha, there was no resistance at all, it was easy to attack in, burn, set fire." Davian excitedly commanded his Holy Cult Army to set fire to the row of buildings near the north gate, but he was kicked in the face by a white foot in the excitement for only three seconds, and Danmir sat alone on horseback and complained: "You fool, this is our city from now on, what did you do with all your efforts to knock him down, you burned him and had to rebuild, is this how I exist?" ”
"O'O." Davion led the Holy Cult Army and was the first to enter Fort Piga, but this stupid man entered the city only to find that there was no defense here, and after easily entering, he began to set fire to his own men, since he wanted to destroy it, then what did he do? What a fool.
