Chapter 58: Killing

The three brothers were scattered, and then in the valley of the city of Mamistra, their army was blocked in front and back, and everywhere there were flags waving, men and horses neighing, and trumpets shaking the sky, "What to do, big brother!" The two younger brothers were terrified and had no idea, and watched Gawain's banner guard, accompanied by many red-handed horsemen, galloping towards them with great vigour.

"You're going to ask me!" Severn. Callegos was angry and frightened, but the boss was the boss after all, and he suddenly had an idea, so he forced his composure, slowly took off his armor, dismounted and bowed down in front of the dust raised by Gawain's horses' hooves, raised his hands, and made a deferential gesture common in reliefs and paintings, and then his own words were even more shocking, "General Orson of Lamplun, who betrayed the Cilician Way and brought in the emperor's military horses, came to attack the castle territory of the Grand Duke and Lord Baldwin, and my three brothers got the news, and immediately left the city to help defend it." ”

Gawain under the brim of the hat and helmet, with a pair of blue eyes, was pressed under the shadow and murderous aura, and the other two brothers followed behind the eldest brother, looking up and sweeping the eyes of the Grand Duke from time to time, feeling that the whole world was involved in the line of life and death, as long as the Grand Duke waved his hand, countless long axes of execution would immediately chop themselves into meat sauce, and this time it seemed that Gawain and Godfrey were obviously prepared, and quickly returned from Antioch, and the speed was staggering.

"That's right, the Adana River is the only place to take Mamistra. So according to you, General Orson has betrayed his covenant with me? Finally, Gawain said this, and the three brothers' throats gurgled at the same time, and then they hurriedly planted it as if out of breath. Among them, Taylor came back again, "The Emperor's secret envoy is still in Sith City!" ”

The other two brothers. The sound of humming, scolding the third child's mouth in his heart. The emperor's secret envoy is indeed in the city of Sith, but the three brothers have already signed the petition to Alexios, and if Gawain is tracked down at this time, won't he have to drop his head in the city of Sith?

But Gao Wen raised his chin and said to the three brothers very kindly, "Now all kinds of information have stirred me up so much that I can't distinguish it. So Severn, one of your three brothers, went first into the city of Sith. I will confront the Emperor's secret envoy for arrest, and if His Majesty is suspicious of my loyalty, it will really make me sad and make the entire Red Hand Brigade angry."

With that, Severn immediately stood up in a hurry, threw the two brothers behind him, stepped on the horse, and then Gawain waved his hand. Carrying a battle banner and three hundred cavalry, Muzafiadin followed him and galloped to the Citadel of Sith, the core city of the East Cilician Plain.

And two brothers. He continued to frown, or rather grimaced, and was supervised by the guard warrior who was holding a cold axe and a halberd.

The iron bars of the city gates were pulled up. Saiwen hurriedly rode through the curtain wall of the tower, and before he could wait for Muzafiadin to lead the cavalry. After putting the fort in order, they rushed into the hall (there was no acropolis in Sith City). Then the emperor's envoy stood up with a face full of surprise, and a bloody light exploded, and Saiwen drew his sword without hesitation, killing him on the spot, and then pulled out the swords of the stunned guards around him and threw them on the floor next to the corpse of the envoy.

"It's a pity that he was afraid of the revelation of the conspiracy, drew his sword to resist me, and was killed by me in the fight." Then the red-handed cavalrymen in armor, under the guidance of Muzafi Adin, walked to the hall and looked at the corpse of the secret envoy in the pool of blood, Saiwen trembled, his eyes were red, and he wiped the blood on his body and palms, and then turned back and explained.

But when Severn walked out of the hall, under the harsh sunlight, the whole castle was fluttering with the banner of the red hand, and the rest of Muzafiadin's cavalry had occupied the key points of the city in an instant.

Then Gawain took the reins and stood in front of the city gate with his team waiting for him, "Mobilize everyone to follow me and go to the river of Lamprun, to Ortitius and Orsen, even in the face of His Majesty's chariot, to make it clear." ”

The three brothers had no choice but to "hand" the city of Sith and the city of Cichstra, which Gawain had awarded to them last time, to the soldiers of the Red Hand Brigade, and all the other Genat cavalry were terrified, and no one dared to speak, so Gawain selected four hundred elite cavalry from the two cavalry companies and among them, and let Monomarcus and Polibi carry the marching flag, and take the three brothers, and rush to the foot of Lamprun.

At this moment, Anna arrived with all the men of the Guardian Brigade that could be mobilized, about a thousand men, and two thousand Germans from outside.

Now, the river bank where the Sidenus River meets the Rampron River has become a whirlpool of all contradictions and intrigue.

The barracks on both sides were like crops, and the campfires and cooking smoke were like river sand, and the hill where Lamprun was located happened to be in the heart of the confrontation between the two armies.

On the other side of the Sidnus River, Tetisius and Theognes hurriedly mounted their horses, looking at the purple princess and the grand duke's bannermen and horses from a distance, and at this time the hill of Lamprun was on a high place, and Orson was caught in the middle, and he was at a loss, so he could only come down to negotiate with the same cavalry.

"Lord Steward, do you need to cross the river to attack?" Diognis was worried and asked Tetisius a question.

"Why cross the river and attack?" General Nose quickly kicked the topic back, he knew that the duty of the guard was to serve as the emperor's supervision, although the other party's people were very loyal, but supervision is supervision, and some things to say by themselves, and let him say it, is a completely different effect.

Diognis frowned, "Isn't that what the Emperor actually meant?" ”

"Your Majesty's actual meaning is known only to Your Majesty himself, and we, as servants, do not need to speculate."

"But Harold's horses are in the city of Konya behind them."

"Then wait for General Harold to arrive, and then make a decision. Our duty is to recover the city of Tarsus and reinforce Antioch. ”

But soon, the moment of consternation came for both of them to be sent by Gawain and Anna, accompanied by Brother Auden and Count Werner on the side of Baldwin and Godfrey's brothers, to deliver the oath and the key to Tetisius at the same time!

This means that His Majesty the Emperor has no difficulty in obtaining the city of Tarsus.

"The passage to the Syria Gate here has also been opened by our side." Here's the next promise.

"What about the rest of the regions and cities?" Tetisius took the key and cautiously questioned the heraldic officer, Androdart, and the catcher, who was holding the flail beside him, felt so nervous that his breath was about to stop.

"TBD." Andodat said this, and then added, "But the Grand Duke, the Duke of Lower Lorraine, and Lord Baldwin also believe that the siege of Antioch is now at a critical moment, and that food and straw supply are of great importance, so the castles of Seleucia and Adana shall be paid to His Majesty the Emperor in a year's time."
