However, the French civil war had been besieging Malseb for a month since the Protestant army besieged Malseb.

As a small city, accommodating more than 10,000 soldiers, plus thousands of citizens, the city was full, and food and water were being consumed dramatically.

Although it was possible to transport food from Île-de-France, the Protestant army was constantly attacking the food convoys, and it can be said that there was not enough food in the city.

"Lord Duke, at present, the food in the city of Malseb is constantly being consumed, and if it is not replenished, we will run out of food!"

On the side, the young adjutant looked at Duke Guise with a calm face, and said nervously and anxiously.

However, his hurried mood did not disturb the mood of the Duke of Guise, who still stood on the city wall, holding a telescope, and kept observing the camp of the Protestant army.

"So, tell me, how long will we have enough food at the moment?"

Duke Guise continued to stare ahead without looking back, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and he didn't know what he saw, and his mood began to be happy.

In this regard, the adjutant exhaled, turned his head and looked around, for fear that others would hear, his eyes were lowered, and then he said softly:

"At the moment, there is only enough food for 10,000 people in the granary for a week, and we can hold on for four days at most!"

"Four days? Enough, enough! ”

Duke Guise put down the binoculars in his hand, glanced at the young adjutant, patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said:

"That group of Huguenots, four days is already a long time to solve them, and there is no need to worry about the food problem at all!"

The adjutant looked at Duke Guise's optimistic expression, and his originally nervous heart immediately relaxed a little, and the expression on his face softened a lot.

He didn't wait to ask, it wasn't what his adjutant should ask, and when he got the answer he wanted, it would be fine.

"By the way, Duke Vendôme, what do you think?"

After saying that, Duke Guise turned his head again and looked at the silent Duke Vendôme on the side.

"I agree with your words, the Duke, the Huguenots are indeed no longer a threat, it's time to give them a little bit of power!"

Duke Vendôme glanced at Duke Guise, smiled, and said meaningfully.

To this, the Duke of Guise nodded at him, and curled his lips meaningfully as well.

The young adjutant was left alone, standing on the city wall in a daze, with a blank expression on his face.

Outside the city of Malseb, near the Huguenot barracks.

In this era, where there were generally armies, merchants followed, forming a temporary market for soldiers.

Collecting loot at a low price and then selling it at a high price is something that only big businessmen with a lot of money can do, and only they have the capital to operate.

Ordinary small merchants set up shops and stalls, cloth, clothing, shoes and socks, weapons, alcohol, casinos, and brothels with a large number of runaway women.

These things are all needed by the soldiers on a daily basis, so they are relatively lively in normal times.

Danny is an eighteen-year-old from Porto Arres, in the Aquitaine region, who comes from a family of fishermen.

His short black hair and long-term face that has been exposed to the sea breeze for a long time are dark and chapped, making him very conspicuous in the army.

With two silver coins in his hand, Danny was in a trance for a moment, this was the most money he had ever received in a long time.

It can be seen that since he was caught in the Protestant army for a few months, he has either been chased and beaten, or he has been running around, and there is no time to get extra money.

Since then, the situation has taken a turn for the worse, and the Protestant Liaison has reversed the beaten situation in one fell swoop, and instead besieged the Catholic allies.

Duke Guise, who was famous in France, suddenly counterattacked in one fell swoop, which made Danny happy.

During the month, the siege of the city of Malseb led the Protestant army to raid the villages around Malseb.

Everyone benefited, even he, the son of a fisherman, received two silver coins a month, which was the surplus of his family's income for a year.

Clutching the two silver coins tightly, Danny happily walked out of the camp and into the merchant's tent area not far away.

Along the way, there was an endless stream of soldiers, all with a radiant face with a comfortable and lazy expression.

Looking at everyone like this, so is Danny.

It's such a happy day, it's more enjoyable and relaxing than fishing at home, and I really hope that it will last forever.

Soon after entering the prosperous and bustling "shopping street", he saw a group of disheveled women, with little clothing to wear, revealing large areas of and blushing skin, as well as the organs that made men restless.

Behind them, soldiers came out with their pants on their faces, smiling and greeting them.

In this regard, Danny made a decision that he would use half of his net worth to save these stumbling women.

Excited, Danny smiled and walked to the woman's side, and was about to exchange ideas when a sudden vibration sounded in his ears.

The sound was as terrifying as the waves of the sea, and Danny, who had been a few months old, was no longer the son of the ignorant fisherman, his face suddenly turned pale and colorless.

It was the sound of cavalry running, and it was a large group of cavalry, cavalry with heavy casualties.

He was not the only one who found out, but all the soldiers who were shopping and lingering all found out about this shocking news.

A large wave of cavalry rushed towards them.

This wave of cavalry came from the Paris area, but went around the rear of the Huguenots and charged directly.

In the final analysis, there are more supporters of the nobles of the Catholic Allied Army, and there are more than 10,000 people in the city, and they can immediately recruit thousands of cavalry to come to support.

The Protestant army has been keeping a close eye on the Duke of Guise in the city, and the easy siege of the city for nearly a month has made the Protestant army relax a lot.

And the cavalry coming from the rear took them by surprise at once, which was completely unexpected by them.

As a result, the cavalry that came from behind broke through their position, and the Duke of Guise in the city saw the opportunity to go out of the city to attack.

In less than half an hour, the Protestant army, which had a great advantage, was suddenly beaten to pieces.

The soldiers at the bottom scurried around brainlessly, trampled to death, trampled to death by cavalry, or killed by the Catholic Allies.

And the high-ranking officers can no longer command the soldiers under them, so they can only take some soldiers who can still order, evacuate urgently, and flee in a hurry.

Three hours passed, and the original Protestant army camp was in shambles, with flags, armor, corpses, blood, war horses, and so on.

In this battle, the Catholic allies were victorious.
