Chapter Twenty-Four: Shameful Life!
The city of Lower Lorraine was defeated by Charles II so quickly, which not only shocked the Duke of Lorraine, but even Charles II himself did not expect it. Although we pity our Duke Manuel, there are only a few hundred of the 5,000 heavily armed soldiers left, and the rest are either killed in battle or disabled, and with the medical level of this era, disability means death. The prestige of the Duke of Manuel not only did not improve in this first battle, but fell to the bottom all at once.
Allen took Guy and the others into Lower Lorraine City from the West Gate. The soldiers defending the city had long since fled without a trace, and the besieging soldiers began to plunder the booty.
The city that had just experienced the baptism of war had long since lost its former peace and tranquility, and the city was full of robberies and shouts of killing, and the flowers of sin bloomed brilliantly at this moment, which was the treatment of the victors. There is no way for Alan to stop this, even if he himself is very disgusted with this. But this is the unspoken rule of this era, and whoever breaks this rule is the enemy of all nobles.
So the only thing Eren can do is restrain his army.
With a bang, a door next to it fell, revealing the scene inside. Dozens of two-handed swordsmen are sacking a noble manor.
Even from the outside, you can tell that this lavish manor, with its vast lawn with extremely flat manicuring, and exquisite marble statues, is not found in ordinary aristocrats.
Alan wasn't going to stop it, because it happened everywhere. Under normal circumstances, the manors of the nobles were guarded by guards, who would protect the nobles' property from harm after the city was broken, and then pay a ransom after the war to get their property back. Privately seizing the property of the nobles was a red line in the aristocratic class, and under normal circumstances, only nobles could be deprived of their property if they committed a serious crime. Like Andrew's treason or something.
This aristocratic manor was obviously not guarded by guards, and it was not known whether the nobleman had already transferred his property or what, so the soldiers easily broke in.
Just as Eren shook his head and moved on, a shout interrupted Alan's actions.
"Your Excellency Lord Ouranos, please lend a hand! I, the Justter family, will repay the Duke for his great kindness!" An old voice rang out behind Allen.
Alan turned his head to see an old man with gray hair talking.
Alan leaned sideways on his horse and asked, "Who are you?"
The old man hurriedly replied, "Below is Louis Vuitton, the butler of the Justter family, asking the Duke for protection."
Alan frowned and said, "Since this is the manor of the Duke of Lorraine, why is there no guard, and you know that these are not my soldiers, and I have no authority to govern them." It's not in line with the rules either. ”
When Louis Vuitton heard this, he said urgently: "I didn't deceive the Duke, in order to defend the city of Lower Lorraine, the Duke of my family has already emptied the guards in the manor. However, after the city was broken, he left in a hurry and did not have time to take his family away, so he begged the Duke to preserve the dignity and dignity of the nobles for the sake of the nobles. The Justs family will have a retribution. ”
Hearing this, Alan was a little moved, war is war, and it is really helpless to implicate the family. Now that I have the ability to help, should I help? The soldiers inside are Charles II's personal soldiers, otherwise they would not dare to invade such a luxurious manor, if they interfere, will they offend Charles II?
Fiona, who was beside her, saw that Alan was still thinking, and said, "Since this butler has spoken, why don't you help, don't you even have the virtues of a nobleman?" After speaking, he didn't wait for Alan to speak. As soon as he urged the horse's belly, he rushed straight into the manor.
Alan looked at Fiona, who had already rushed into the manor, swallowed the words that came to his lips, and waved his hand for everyone to follow.
Elizabeth is the third daughter of the Duke of Lorraine, and at the age of fourteen, she is extremely beautiful, with smooth and delicate skin, full breasts, and a slender waist. The dazzling blonde hair, with eyes like jewels in the deep sea, is perfect for making people jealous, and people can't help but sigh that this is a treasure given by the Holy Light to mankind. She is known as the pearl of Moslian, the most precious treasure of Moslian.
Originally, Elizabeth had only come to Lower Lorraine to visit her sister, who was the crown princess of the eldest prince Jiawen, so she followed the eldest prince to the north. Her second sister entered the Cult of the Light and became a nun, where she now practices at Hagia Sophia in Lower Lorraine.
But unfortunately Charles II launched a war, it is said that Elizabeth could also leave before Charles II arrived in Lower Lorraine, but one was worried about her second sister, and the second was that she believed that Charles II could not capture Lower Lorraine, so she stayed in Lower Lorraine.
Who would have thought that Charles II would not only capture Lower Lorraine, but also take only one afternoon. The tide of battle was unexpected, so the Duke of Lorraine didn't have time to make a detour home with his family.
Elizabeth and her party were left in the manor.
Charles II's soldiers didn't know that this was the manor of the great nobles, the first was that the manor was not guarded by guards, and the second was that those soldiers were also red-eyed, seeing that such a luxurious manor had no guards, it was like seeing a white noble lady untie her clothes herself, and immediately rushed in.
Elizabeth saw the soldiers, with their swords in hand, hacking to death all those who stood in their way, and then going mad and turning over the chests and stuffing everything that seemed to be of value into their bosoms, and the blood of the attendants stained the white marble tiles, and occasionally they were trampled on and splashed with a series of blood.
Many antique oil paintings are completely unattractive in the eyes of these big-headed soldiers, either too heavy or too large to carry, so many of them have been destroyed because of the brutal actions of these soldiers.
Whether it is the great painter Gao Fan's "Sunflowers" or Dan Luo's "The Thinker", these priceless treasures worth thousands of gold coins are trampled under the soles of their feet, and Elizabeth is sad to watch.
However, this is not the time to care about this, the manor is full of crying and screaming, full of violent soldiers, and full of slain servants. The cry of despair and anguish, the cry as if it had been heard in a symphony before, reached its climax at this moment.
The soldiers would soon rush to the second floor, and Elizabeth knew it. She was hiding in the closet of her bedroom at the moment, holding the badge of the Holy Light given by her second sister in her hand, desperately praying to the Holy Light, but the only thing she could do, at this moment she regretted very much that she had not listened to her father and left Lower Lorraine.
I don't know if she was not sincere enough, or if the Holy Light insisted on letting her suffer this fate, Charles II's soldiers found her.
Elizabeth was savagely dragged out of the closet, and the beasts looked at Elizabeth as if they were looking at a beautiful toy, and their reddened eyes revealed a strong desire for the beast. The gaze was like an invisible claw, and it had torn its own clothes fiercely. Elizabeth despaired, how dazzling and proud she had been. No matter what the situation, it is the focus of everyone, and it is the existence that the aristocracy has turned upside down.
At this moment, she hated her beauty very much, if she was not so beautiful, maybe she could die happily, and she didn't need to be so miserable insulted.
Elizabeth closed her eyes, and the only thing she could do now was wait quietly to wake up from the nightmare. She could already feel the hands on her shoulders. Elizabeth didn't dare to think about what was going on, and tears of despair poured out.
