Helpless, Brenus could only send a secret envoy and his cronies' domestic servants, carrying unsealed documents, to Germanico to discuss with Gawain secretly - he had to do this, for the first time he did not know that Gawain's attitude was very cautious, and he could only use the seal and signature after Gawain promised first, otherwise there was a danger of giving someone a handle.

Now that he is involved in his wife's conspiracy, Brenus has to walk on thin ice.

On the plain below Fort Germanicos, all of Gawain's troops spread out their tents on the scale of the city, and spread out in an orderly manner according to the terrain formed by the two rivers: Gawain's Red Hand Brigade and Red Hand Cavalry were arranged in a long rectangle on the westernmost side, and the infantry were conical tents, and five paces away was a row of large infantry spears stuck in the ground, and a stove made of earthen walls; The cavalry were tents, the horses were concentrated in the central stables, the core position was the camp tent of Gawain and Merlot, each facing each other, and the middle was the middle of the camp, which was much larger, and the materials such as brocade and wood were captured by Antioch from the Kobha camp in the past, and Merlot's tent was also very luxurious, which was very in line with the style of the camp chief, and was decorated with the things obtained from the emperor's imperial camp captured in the Battle of Antioch the Lesser.

To the east, the camp of the large detachment of firethrowers was much simpler, they still used tents captured from the enemy in previous wars, even the Turkic round bag type, for the sake of safety and moisture, the Khitan fire instructor Leotius dug a large square pit in the dry area between the camp and the castle, and placed the carriages containing Khitan snow in layers, like a large burial chamber, covered with a lot of leather, branches and leaves, surrounded by non-flammable wooden fences, and garrisoned soldiers, In front of the wooden fence, there are light artillery trucks and copper clams, which play a great deterrent role on the periphery.

To the east, there was the Guardian Brigade, whose tents were also of various styles, which were divided into two parts, and the camp was set up in the middle of the river, with a pontoon bridge set up in the middle, intending to control the river and prevent the enemy from attacking along the river.

Now the general affairs of the barracks are sent to Merlot for disposal; Gawain, on the other hand, lived in the tent over there, busy exchanging letters with Anna and discussing control of the overall situation.

When the emperor's seven-point edict was delivered to Gao Wen, Gao Wen laughed after reading it, "Do you want Germanico from me?" They also want to tie up my hands and feet, but unfortunately I am neither Theodoro nor Brenus. Then he summoned Merlot, Branas, and other generals, and announced to them, "I am determined to do what I like to His Majesty the Emperor, who is as fine as a philistine, and since he is going to give Germanico Fort to Stephen of Blois, so it will be fine—Ladies and gentlemen, Tetisius and Brenus are now fighting under the fort of Anglas, and we are hurrying south to take Ibn . The city of Konya of Maimun, give way here. As soon as I take Conya, which is joined by Milio Sephalong and Little Antiochus, I will open up a new frontier here! Leotius, how is the consumption of our Khitan snow now? ”

"Venerable Lord Patron, in the previous battle against Danishmund, about a third of it was consumed, and as for the shooting equipment, almost all of them are complete, and there is no loss."

"Use the thunder fire of Khitan snow and the Great Plani cannon to destroy Maimeng's confidence......" Gawain finished speaking, crumpling the emperor's edict contemptuously and throwing it under his boots, "Also, invite Prince Massoud to the city of Konya." ”

Two weeks later, Ibn . Maimon sat in despair in the court of Konya, and the crackling and roar of thunder and fire was constantly in his ears: in front of the walls of Konya, Gawain's brigade marched at a rate of nearly twenty guilla a day, and besieged it impenetrably with the former border army, the people's army, the Paulese, and the Roma beggars, and the parts of several large prani cannons. Dismantled and transported from Cappadocia in a vehicle (the people mobilized by the Sixth Division and the Liberal Renewal Society played an important role again), and then they were skillfully assembled under the city, but this time after destroying the towers, their bomb pockets were equipped with burning fires, and the sun was like a scorching sun pouring down, and at night it was like countless falling stars, streaking across the sky, over the tall walls, and falling into the buildings of the city—camps, houses, chambers, mosques, etc., Most of the buildings were still timber, and the oil from the shattering of the fire broke into the cracks of the houses, and burned unstoppably, and half of the city of Konya was sunk in a sea of fire, illuminating the night completely.

After two days and two nights, Mai Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief, because Gao Wen had exhausted all the Khitan snow (all the years) he had brought from China, and he couldn't throw the fire again, so he continued to throw stone bullets, grinding them on the spot, and smashing them day and night, and the walls of Konya were already scarred and crumbling, and when the fire was extinguished, most of the houses in the city had turned into flying fires.

Soon after, Maimun heard earth-shattering cheers outside the city, and with the support of several Danishmund's mercenaries, he climbed up the pheasant moat, and in the half-ruined fence he saw the array of many besieging soldiers under the city parting and entering with a group of glorious flags and guards of honor, and the first man in armor held a flag with a large brass ring and seven white horsetails, which were the emblems of the Sultan's flag. Then, among the Roma beggars armed with bows and arrows and scimitars, a handsome boy rode a tall horse, wearing a white felt hat and a gold ring, and a saber studded with gold nuggets and diamonds hanging from his waist, while beside him, also covered in armor, Hajib and his son Zangi were holding the reins of the horse.

"Long live, Prince Massoud, the true master of Konya!" All the Roma soldiers in the beggar army drew their swords and cheered.

Maimun, on the other hand, looked in horror at the soldiers on the edge of the moat, many of whom hung their heads with guilt and remorse—in their hearts they still recognized Sultan Giliki and his son.

This is also Gao Wen's ruthless strategy.

Like a child who now goes to play in the playground, Massoud circled Konya several times for the next three days, and in his opinion there were many interesting things about the barracks: the elevated thing could throw two pood-weight stones as far as eighteen hundred anna feet; There are also soldiers who will use pipes made of copper and iron to spew flames and burn down houses; There are also five swing-arm cannon carts, which can smash a bunch of red flame flowers in mid-air.

However, Massoud dealt an even greater blow to the morale of the city, and soon the news came that Anglasburg had been captured by Tetisius's new army, and in order to repay Gawain's friendship with the previous army, Tetisius used a small boat to load more than 200 decapitated heads and sent them to the city of Konya, as a sign that Maimon was "helpless".

As a result, Mai Meng could only give an order to surrender the city. (To be continued.) )
