Chapter 87: Horror Siege (Part II)

The five-pole cannon was also thrown up at a rapid speed by pulling the sling, and many fire and stones were also smashed down by the people's soldiers or citizens guarding the city at the head of the city braved arrows, and two curling wheels were erected on the city gate, and two large wooden frames full of nails and thorns were suspended, which swayed slightly in the wind.

The entire city of Seleucia remained tenacious.

The first to receive the news was the Alalmanburg further west, where the little sunfish, who was supervising and supervising the work, saw the beacon of the alarm, and immediately rode to the city, and asked the magistrate of the local dispatch office, "Leave two hundred people to guard the castle, and the other three hundred men quickly march in the direction of the Akum market." Even if the two chariots and ships could not break the siege, they had to work with four Panphilian light ships to cover the 300 civilian troops along the sea route. ”

The official hesitated, "The number is too small, do you want to wait for news from Fort Mut and Fort Cal Adio?" ”

"Listen, if you wait for those two regions to do something, your exploits will be completely obscured." The little sunfish advised, "Drag a newly made fire bear cannon from the big ladder workshop to the battlefield, and I will direct the shooting." ”

At this time, in front of the town of Coppen in the Mut Valley, hundreds of civilian reinforcements from the Arakhan Monastery and Fort Mut came south, and saw that it was full of refugees in disarray.

"What's up ahead?" When a reconnoitring Nationalist rider ran back, the Centurions questioned him.

"The woods and valleys along the road were filled with people running from Seleucia, and many of them continued to run here. Some say that more than 300 pirates are already on the verge of being killed. ”

After hearing the news, many people in the town of Coppen began to panic and confusion, and many advocated abandoning the place, asking the civilian army to protect them and take refuge in Fort Mut.

"Fellow countrymen, we can't abandon this place, we must erect a wooden fence here, because Cobain was originally the territory of the Paulicians, and now most of them have gone to Meritane, but the Khitan snow warehouse, which has a large storage capacity, is still here and has not been removed. We have to protect this place, otherwise the main guarantor will lack Khitan snow on the front line and suffer defeat. A centurion of the People's Army waved his fist and shouted at everyone in Germanland.

Most of the population was a little agitated, but they were still scared, hesitant to guard their livestock, vehicles and luggage.

A short, stocky middle-aged man in his forties stood up at this moment, with a whip hanging from his belt, his face was ruddy and warm, his voice was very loud, he jumped on the board of a car, and shouted in a thick German accent, "Fellows, I am Jinderschwart, and I am a patrol officer at the Firecracker Willow Farm under Seleucia." Now the centurion is right, we can't just throw away the holy land and walk away, that group of mongrels is our roots, if Seleucia is destroyed by them, we will also be destroyed, I have two sons and a daughter, and an old woman, and now I leave the woman in Coben, and I will keep the town of Coben on the front line with my two sons and the soldiers of the People's Army. If these brutes catch us, how can they end well? I saw with my own eyes that three good young men from Tongzhuang were caught and killed by them, and it was a pity that if I could fight with this group of pirates, maybe one or two would be able to fight to the death. With that, Kindschwarter jumped down again, and beside him a plump blonde girl pulled an iron fork from his own car and gave it to her father, and Kindschwarter took it proudly, and stood in front of the centurion with her short body.

The centurion admired the peasant, "You remind me of my own father, who was the leading figure in the village where I was born, and everyone admired his courage and integrity. ”

"Then do you see, my daughter is over there, look at her buttocks and look at her breasts, which man marries her is a blessing - of course I also have a dowry." Kinderswart, who was on a fork, quietly introduced his daughter to the centurion.

",,! In our hometown, didn't we often kill people and beasts? ”

"My son was killed by them, and I'm going to kill them back, killing these bastards and brutes!"

"When we arrived in Seleucia, under the patron of the great lord and Caesar, we had enough to eat!"

Many peasants from Germany, Austria, and Dalmatia began to be encouraged by Kinderschwart, and they all started to fight to protect their wives, children, and property, and they rushed behind and on both sides of the Nationalist column, carrying pitchforks, flails, clubs, and sickles, and rushing in the direction of the pirates.

The third place to know of the danger was the Fort of Caleadio, which was located in the mountains between Seleucia and Cilicia, and the local chieftain, Ingrena, together with Madame Chiser, donated five hundred gold coins as a reward to the garrison of the people, and another five hundred coins to mobilize six hundred peasant men to follow him and gallop to the aid of Seleucia.

That evening the news reached the new capital of Tarsus, in front of the governor's mansion. Nisitas stood on the steps, nervously and hurriedly dressed in his armor, his wife Adelaide (Fuss, who had just been on Anna's vacation to reunite with her husband) was tidying up for her husband, and the servants brought the horses from the other side of the courtyard.

"All the six hundred soldiers of the people's army in this county have followed me out to rescue Seleucian City." Listening to the bells of the court and the churches in the city, Androdart instructed the heralds, "And you shall go at once to the port of Malrus and the city of Castabara, and tell Lord Baldwin of the state of the battle, and ask for reinforcements from his fleet and cavalry!" ”

When the herald was gone, Androdart stepped on his horse, and he looked a little shy at his golden-haired wife, the former little Austrian princess, and didn't know what to say.

"Go, no need for a farewell. Be the hero of your own epic. "Adelaide stood by the post in front of the door, strong and encouraging her husband," ...... Be careful when marching at night...... Thinking more about how the great guarantor supervised and commanded the army......" In the midst of such admonitions, Androdatra rode his horse with his bridle on his head, left the mansion and his wife, and rushed to the battlefield in the west, Seleucia, which was besieged by the regiments.

When the magistrate Andodat arrived at Zephilim with six hundred civilian troops, Wright of the Sith county over there also hurriedly sent two hundred civilian cavalry to meet him.

At this time, in front of the town of Cobain in the valley of the Mut River, hundreds of civilian troops and thousands of improvised armed peasants actually defeated more than 300 pirates, and the angry peasants killed all the captured pirates, stripped them of their clothes, and carried their naked corpses in the ranks to demonstrate. Then they joined up with the team from the castle of Calleadio, and took advantage of the long twilight of late spring to reach the foot of the hill of the great hospital and set up camp.

The restless Zahas and Assasidus, and the somewhat hesitant Apsomatus, finally lost their breath and landed at the mouth of the river at this moment, ready to personally supervise the battle and break through the walls of Seleucia in the coming day.

"Gawain's cavalry is very powerful, if there is no progress, it may soon be killed from Philo Melron, and we will be in big trouble!" Apsomatus reminded weakly. (To be continued.) )
