Chapter 248: The Dungeon

In the early morning, the sun rises in the east and the sun begins to shine on the earth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

On the way to the march, Kelly gradually saw the whole picture of the cliff fort, but this time it seemed to be a little different, Kelly clearly observed that on the side of the cliff fort, there were a lot of corpses lying on the side, as if they had just gone through a melee at night.

"It's really funny, are those cowards in the south already gathering the strength to go north?" The bodies were scattered on the side of the river next to Cliff Fort, the only shallow way to cross the river as the south and north, and Kelly came to this conclusion.

The Cliff Castle is a walled castle built on a fractured cliff corner, an almost triangular piece of high ground where only a serpentine passage can be built.

There is a small river on the right side of the highland, and on the left side is the connection between the triangular highland and the cliff mountain range.

In an isolated plateau, Cliff Fort has been renovated over the course of day and has become the most solid fortress in England's sphere of influence.

On the flat ground below the cliff fort, there are three camps, two of which block the left and right passages, and one of which is located in the shallows of the river to protect the only source of water.

With such defenses, the entire army of England could send troops to the south at any time, attacking as recklessly as hunting, plundering the towns and cities of the south, and obtaining slaves and wealth. Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, this is the existence that Albert advocated after expelling the main army of France, and it is also because of the existence of the cliff fortress that Albert will let go of his hands and feet to enter the northern continent.

The reason for the existence of the Cliff Castle was proven, and France then launched several counterattacks, but all of them stopped at the Cliff Castle, leaving countless corpses behind each time.

The number of troops brought by Kelly this time was close to a thousand, but the defenders of Cliff Fort did not look defenseless, not only that, but the camp gate at the left passage was also opened, and the queue made a welcoming gesture.

"Lord Kelly, are you planning to bring all the troops of Tyne City to Cliff Castle?" Although it was a gesture of welcome, when the first knight saw Kelly's arrival, he frowned and said.

"Didn't you receive orders from your lord? Even if the facts are like yours, why not. Kelly looked at the handsome-looking knight in front of her, and said in a somewhat enthusiastic tone: "Charles, you are so powerful, isn't it a pity to be wronged here, maybe you can try to change to a new environment, I have raised a lot of valuable horses, if you are interested,,,。 ”

When Charles saw Kelly stretching out his hand and seemed to want to touch his cheek, he hurriedly took a step back, and said with a solemn face: "We will not disobey the lord's order, but please Lord Kelly, as knights, we all have integrity, and I will think that I heard those words wrong." ”

"Really, your expression is so uninteresting." Kelly pretended not to care, smiled and continued, "Where's your chief Hubert?" ”

Hearing Kelly mention Hubert, Charles turned his head slightly to look at Fort Cliff, and then said, "Last night I eliminated a French army that tried to sneak across the river into the south, and Chief Hubert should be in the dungeon at this moment to interrogate the captured prisoners. ”

"In the dungeon? It just so happens that I'm going to the dungeon too. Hearing this, Kelly muttered to herself, and turned to look at Wen Liuhuan, whose hands were restrained by Stina.

Originally, I was thinking that I could get together the chips exchanged in order to bring Wen Liuhuan out of Colby's hands, but I didn't expect things to develop like this now, but Kelly didn't care about Colby's life and death, and now the most important thing is to subdue that Huaxia spiritual leader and get a large number of civilization points, which is the most important thing.

After ordering the army to be stationed nearby, Kelly took several white-robed assassins and Wen Liuhuan and rode towards the core area of the cliff fort.

The winding serpentine road can only accommodate four horsemen in parallel, and the maximum strength increases the strength of the defense, if the enemy invades the cliff fort, this serpentine road exposed to the range of the fortress's arrows can cause heavy casualties to the enemy army.

At the end of the road, there is a quaint castle, around which a triangular wall has been built in conjunction with the topography of the isolated high ground, and the soldiers on duty on the city wall are all fully armed, with bows and arrows in hand, and there is no slackness in the slightest, showing the strict military discipline of the guards.

After identifying Kelly, the heavy grid iron gate was pulled up by the chain winch, and the city gate was wide open to put Kelly and her party in.

Kelly was clearly not here for the first time, and headed straight for the entrance to the dungeon without anyone leading the way.

Entering the passageway, the smell of torches suddenly came to the face, but then there was a cool breeze, although the dungeon was deep underground, but the vents everywhere were built very well, and Kelly did not feel any stuffiness.

After walking down the tunnel for a while, in a room that looked like a courtroom, Kelly finally saw Hubert.

"It's a nasty design." Although it was not the first time to be here, seeing Hubert sitting in the position of "trial judge" at this moment, Kelly still slandered Albert's interest in her heart.

A French man who had been tortured was sitting in the center of the room, looking at Hubert who was sitting in front of him with a look of horror.

"Don't try to deceive me, or I'll let the whip and soldering iron make you honest." Hubert said this calmly, and with the smile of an old man on his face, but the French man did not feel any peace at all, and his heart became even more frightened.

"Interesting, is it just halfway through the interrogation?" Seeing this, Kelly was not in a hurry, but sat on a chair against the wall, looking at all this with interest, only Wen Liuhuan exclaimed slightly after seeing the blood on the ground, but after thinking of where she was, she tried to restrain herself and prevent herself from crying.

"Please, let me go, I just want to live." The French man who had been tortured said with a crying voice, and at this moment his face was mixed with tears and snot mixed with blood, "As long as you can let me live and let me go back to the south, I can tell you anything." ”

"Oh, can't you hold it?" Hubert didn't seem to be happy when he heard this, as if he had suddenly lost interest in the plaything, and the expression on his face changed suddenly, and he said sharply: "Tell me quickly, whether you have been in contact with the south side, and whether you have a battle plan." ”
