Chapter 907: Priest
"My lord, it's not good!"
"Oh no, sir!"
A knight with shattered armor and blood on his face shouted in terror.
"What's wrong, what's going on?"
The priest Isolt and the others, who were discussing countermeasures, couldn't help but change their faces and asked in shock.
"Your Excellency!"
"The Great Cadre army has broken through the city gate!"
"The number of knights is too scarce to resist!"
The knight was surrounded by dignitaries and nobles, his face couldn't help but be to the side, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said in an anxious voice:
"Your Excellency!"
"We need support... ”
"Support!"
"Where are the soldiers and horses in the city?"
Looking at Aesop's inquiring gaze, a wry smile appeared on Hami's face.
The soldiers and horses in the city have been completely contained, how can there be soldiers and horses available?
"Where's the Iron Mask?"
"Iron Mask is the most elite army in Broadleaf City, and its combat power is not under the crusaders of the Holy See!"
Aesop's eyes froze, and she asked in disbelief.
"The slaves in the city have rebelled, and the Iron Mask has been sent by the city lord!"
"We really don't have any soldiers and horses in our hands... ”
Seeing that Aesop didn't believe it, Hami hurriedly explained.
"Damn it!"
"Why is Halba so confused!"
"Doesn't he know that the Iron Mask is the last power of Broadleaf City, and he can't be called on easily... ”
Aesop slammed the hammer and roared angrily.
"Lord Priest!"
"It's not that Lord Harba is confused, it's that the situation in the city is just too bad. ”
"Bewitched by the imprisonment of the Great Qiansi, the slaves all came out of the cage, and I don't know where they found their weapons, and it was helpless to dispatch the iron mask!"
Seeing that Aesop was angry with Halba, Hami hurriedly stepped forward to explain.
"You don't have to explain it to him ... ”
"Halba was indeed a handsome man when he was young, and he worked hard to develop Broadleaf City very well, but as he grew older, he slowly degenerated. ”
"Greedy for wine, passive and slack... He only knows pleasure, otherwise, he would not have died on a woman. ”
Aesop couldn't help but snort coldly, and said with disdain on her face.
"Your Excellency!"
"What should we do now?"
Listening to Aesop taunt Halba, Hami sanguinly didn't interject.
Now that Halba is dead, if nothing else, Aesop in front of him will be the new lord of the city, and under this kind of invitation, there is no need for him to offend Aesop to death because of Halba.
"How's the Knights doing?"
"Can we still fight?"
Instead of answering Hami's question immediately, Aesop turned his head and asked.
"Your Excellency!"
"The Knights suffered heavy losses, and most of the knights died in battle!"
"Please have mercy on the lives of my brothers. ”
When the knight heard Aesop's question, he hurriedly knelt down and said with a pitiful face.
"That's it!"
"Get up!"
"Tell the knights in front of them that their mission is complete and they can return... ”
Hearing that the Knights had suffered heavy losses, Aesop's face couldn't help but change slightly, the Knights were the power of the Holy See, under his direct leadership, and to some extent, these knights were his descendants.
"No!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Hearing Aesop's order, the knight's face couldn't help but show a sense of relief.
The attack of the Great Cadres was too ferocious.
Within a few hours of fighting, their numbers had plummeted from more than a hundred to a few dozen. If this continues, the Knights of Broadleaf City will exist in name only.
It was for this reason that he came to Aesop to cry.
Fortunately, Isolt cherishes her power ... There is no intention of stumbling the Knights. However, before he could put the heart he was holding in his stomach, Hami's words made him nervous again:
"Your Excellency!"
"How can this be?"
"Now that Broadleaf City is full of beacon fires, and we have no soldiers and horses in our hands, if the people of the Knights retreat, won't the soldiers and horses of Zhibei County have to drive straight in, as if they have entered a no-man's land. ”
"Damn it!"
Listening to Hami's words, the knight's eyes couldn't help jumping, and he couldn't help but pull out the big sword at his waist and kill the old nobleman.
Worried that the commander of the Zhibei County Government is driving straight in, why don't you resist on behalf of your own troops?
You all hide in a safe place behind us, and let our brethren go and bleed desperately ...
How can such a good thing be in this world?
"Not bad!"
"Not bad!"
"Knight-sama!"
"For the sake of the people in the back, you just hold on a little longer, right?"
"The Great God of Genki bless you!"
The other nobles also realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly stepped forward, tugging at the knight's cloak, and said with pleading faces.
"Knight-sama!"
"Fuck off!"
Listening to the sound of chirping, the knight's brows couldn't help frowning, and he kept scolding in his heart.
Bastard!
Bastard!
A bunch of bastards!
How can this be?
You usually act as a prestige, eat and drink spicy food, and look down on us ordinary knights at all, but when you are in danger, you let us go out and die.
It's a beautiful idea, and I definitely can't agree to it.
Although he had already made up his mind in his heart, the knight still gave Aesop enough face, only to see him fall to his knees heavily, and said in a sad voice:
"Lord Priest!"
"We knights are loyal and brave!"
"They should have fought to the last soldier, but the Knights are the most pious warriors of the Holy See... ”
"Only the gods can decide whether they live or die. ”
Listening to the knight's mournful voice, the faces of Hami and the others couldn't help but become strange.
This knight's heart is not as rough as it seems...
Knights are knights of the gods!
This is to tell Aesop that the Knights are the power of the Holy See and must not be sacrificed lightly for the sake of Broadleaf City.
Actually, this is also what he is a little worried about...
Aesop couldn't tell the difference, otherwise he wouldn't have just let the Knights retreat from the battlefield.
"You don't have to worry ... This priest asked them to retreat from the battlefield, not to give up Broadleaf City!"
"But there is a better way to deal with the big cadres!"
Isolt glanced at the nobles around her, knowing what they were afraid of and worried about, and hurriedly stepped forward, smiling and comforting.
"It's really not to give up Broadleaf City?"
An old, dizzy-eyed nobleman asked with some disbelieving.
"Naturally!"
"Broadleaf City is the gateway to the kingdom of Uzi. ”
"Once the broadleaf city is lost, the entire country of Uzi will face an embarrassing situation where there is no danger to rely on... ”
"Although this priest is a member of the Holy See, he also knows the seriousness of this matter, so you don't have to doubt it!"
Isolt saw that everyone's faces were still a little suspicious, and simply said openly.
"Yes!"
Everyone listened to Aesop's earnestness and couldn't help but nod their heads slightly. And asked with some curiosity:
"So how is the priest going to deal with the great cadres?"
