Chapter Seventy-Five: The Fate of Military Commanders
It took him a long time to learn where His Majesty was, for the people of the palace were so painful about the invasion of heavily armed soldiers that they scattered when they saw him, and he was lucky to have someone who knew the inside story to lead him around.
But that wasn't really what frustrated Rikuenis, and it was the scene that really touched his heart when he stepped into the king's bedchamber. Although Kumuel was never a worthy king in Licuenis's mind, the reality was far beyond the limits of his imagination. The vast palace was littered with empty and half-empty bottles, and hundreds of naked women lay on the floor, and the air smelled of booze, putrid vomit, and semen, and the only man in the palace, King Kumuel, was pressing on one of the women and shaking his waist, which had become fat from the over-drinking.
Is this the king of Yaki? Is this what to do when the whole city is struggling in constant fear? Likuenis had to admit that there was some truth in what Usubu had said before, that His Majesty's spirit had collapsed earlier than the people, and that he had already decided that he had only one way to die, so what was the value of rescuing such a king by exhausting all his life force and enjoying all his sensual pleasures? The king committed suicide mentally long ago.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass without a widow's call? King Kumuel spotted Licuannis and his men, got up from the woman, and with great difficulty managed to keep his balance, opened his mouth unhappily, and asked with a smell of wine.
"Your Majesty," since the king asked. Likuenis could only reply: "The siege of the thief army is tight, and the ministers and others ask Your Majesty to avoid it for the time being, in case of an emergency." ”
"Thieves? The widow is not afraid! Kumuel waved his hand exaggeratedly: "The widow is the king of Yaki!" No one can help the widow! It's good that you're here, these women can't arouse the widow's sexual desire anymore, you go and find some new faces for the widow! These will be rewarded to you and your men! ”
Licuenis was silent for a moment before he saluted, "Yes!" Wechen obeys His Majesty's will. ”
After speaking. Licuannis then retreated with his men. The general's cleanliness habit prevailed at the moment, he really didn't want to rescue such a waste, maybe it would be a merciful move for him to be killed by the thieves in a drunken state.
By the time he withdrew from the palace, the situation had reached a very critical state, and the Dils army had basically grasped the control of the city and had begun to attack the royal city. The people in front of him were scurrying around like headless flies, and Likuenis finally found Usubu and said, "Your Excellency. Time is pressing, we should get out of the city now! ”
Usubu shook his head and smiled: "My lord, you go and find a way to survive by yourself, the old man has no strength to revive Yaqi at his age." Let this worthless body be destroyed with Ashtiton. ”
Likuenis looked at the old prime minister's eyes, nodded, and said, "Although I don't have any talent, I have been reused by the lord for many years, and since the lord refuses to leave." Then let's have a good time at the end! ”
With that, Licuenis turned on his horse. He shouted, "Soldiers, follow me!" Then he rushed out of the royal city.
When Likuenis had led the men away, Usubu smiled strangely, and then entered the palace and found the secret passage out of the city that only the king had the right to know, in fact, he had been going to this secret passage before, but he had happened to be touched by Likuenis. Poor Kumuel did not know that this secret passage existed. In this sense, he may not really be the king of Yagi.
Besides, Licuenis led his soldiers out of the royal city, and only then did he see the situation clearly, and it was impossible for his men and horses to fight a way out of the 150,000 Dilc army and the mutinous Yaqui soldiers and civilians, even if he wanted to fight to the death. It's just a drop in the bucket for others. Even so, Likuenis still struggled to rush forward to kill, he really didn't want to live, he had too many wingmen who sacrificed their lives for the country in the confrontation with the thief army, so many excellent people died in battle, a mediocre general like himself could survive to the end, for the last glimmer of glory for the Yaki country, he felt that he was much luckier than his wingmen, even if he died, he was happy. Arrowed, stabbed, and shot, he was unaware of it, immersed in the last battle of his life, as if his deceased comrades were all at his side to provide him with shelter, and Licuenis exerted his full strength, and the crazy and terrifying smile on his face discouraged the soldiers of the Dils Army. That's when he bumped into Hector.
As soon as they got into the fight, Likuenis knew the difference in strength between the two sides, and even in the best condition, he would not be the opponent of the enemy in front of him, and this was not a distance that could be conquered by fanatical will. As he fought, he said, "I am the Yaki general, Likuenis, and I want to know the life of the enemy general who killed him in the end." ”
"Captain Palchwan, Hector, your lord's head will be taken over by your subordinates." Hector's words were as hard and cold as his spear.
In a flash, Hector's spear stabbed Licuannis's horse in the buttocks, the horse stood up in pain, Licuanis's figure fell upside down, and Hector's spear had stabbed him in the chest again!
After Likuannis's body fell to the ground, his men laid down their weapons as well. It's not that they are not afraid of death, but they mustered up their courage under the oppressive force of this general, and now that the main general is dead, there is no need for them to continue fighting.
Licuenis was not the last Yaki general to fall in the siege of Ashtidon, but he was the most decent, at least not a single soldier left him before he died, and many more Yaki generals were not as lucky as him, they did not die at the hands of the Dirs, but were killed by their own men who killed them from behind. As Li Tianhao predicted, the city of Ashtiton experienced a baptism of blood, and the protagonist was not the Dils army, but the result of the Yaji army killing each other.
The city of Ashtiton fell the next morning, King Kumuel was killed by arrows after the Tyls army stormed the palace, and the other brothers of Kadir III did not have time to escape from the city, they had similar physical strength and intelligence to Kumuel, and at the last moment they were all betrayed by the servants, and they sat in their mansions like abandoned orphans and obediently became prisoners. For these members of the Yaki royal family, Li Tianhao had no intention of harming them, after all, there was really no sense of accomplishment in killing this group of wastes. So Li Tianhao ordered these royal brothers to be tied up in the square for three days, and then released them and made them free people. It is a pity that Li Tianhao miscalculated the people's hatred for these royal children who usually oppressed them, and also miscalculated their physical limits, and none of these royal brothers persevered until they were free, and they died in panic, humiliation and physical injury.
Ashtidon, the capital of Yaqui, became the territory of Palci, and the total casualties paid by the Dils army did not exceed 900, while the soldiers and civilians of the city suffered more than 4,000 casualties in the final mutiny. (To be continued.) )
