"We will rid the army of unrighteousness! First of all, can you do it to anyone who is not allowed to deceive Christ in weight, in measurement, in the exchange of gold and silver, in transactions? If you do it, you must be shackled and parade through the camp regardless of your identity. Ademar continued to chant.

Everyone answered in the affirmative in unison.

"No one is allowed to steal from the camp or disobey the orders of the Council of Cardinals, and anyone who disobeys them will be punished with a scorching iron!"

"Yes, we will make an oath."

"No one is allowed to fall through the of a woman or a of a chicken, and the offender will be scourged, and the whole camp will be disgraced!"

"Yes, we will obey."

Then, after Ademar finished reading the oath, he suddenly raised the cross in his hand, and shouted to bring it up, and then in front of everyone's eyes, two men and women with **** bodies were brought to the altar, "Damn, it's Sigma from Barnaville, he's a glorious knight who owns a castle." "You recognize him, but the woman next to him is not his wife at all, but a Corinthian prostitute and a warbler who has blended in with the ranks of the pilgrims!" My priest Adalbello led the men and found them when they happened to be engaged in unspeakable deeds in the tent, and now, in order to prove the truth of what I have just said, it is time to execute the punishment on the spot! The Priesthood of Ademar did not hesitate to speak.

Then, Sigma and the Greek warbler's hands were each tied with backlashes, and the church people pressed them to their knees on the altar, and the shadows of the thorny thistle whips continued to whizz and fly in the firelight. The woman wailed for mercy, and the whip continued to tear through layers of blood on her snow-white back. With a terrifying sound, it simply made the bravest knights present scatter. Sigma, on the other hand, was a man, hanging his head and gritting his teeth, allowing him to be scourged, not uttering the slightest cry for help, but constantly begging for forgiveness for his sins in front of the reliquary and the statue of Jesus.

"It was as if the people of their church were clean" In the crowd, a somewhat angry Normandy Robert was just about to open his mouth when his eyes saw the young priest Adalbello, who was overseeing the punishment, and was killed by Flanders Robert. And Blois Stephen hurried to stop it, to prevent the calamity from coming out of his mouth. Because the eyes of the priesthood were turned to them.

"The General Staff of the Military Staff, please come up and read out the subordinates on the military side in the back!" The other party directly told Stephen to go up.

So the Count of Blois, nodding to the two Robels, calmly ascended the altar step by step, looked at the dense crowd of human heads and eyes below, and cleared his thoughts, "We are now going to set up a sentry tower on the bridge between the camps (and now these lords have finally thought of this). Build a few bridges, and send our bravest lords and knights into them."

"Every day we provide forty pounds of silver, which we share with the knights and soldiers who are stationed there, as a stipend." Now. The clergy chief behind the Count of Blois was evidently pleased with the plan, and added, giving him an approving look. Motioning for Stephen to stop worrying, he continued.

"The soldiers in the camp under the city are less stationed. On the other side of the river, there were more soldiers in and around the camp, and horses were concentrated. The layout of the front is light and the rear is heavy, so that once the Turks attack from the city, whether it is attacking the besieging camp or attacking the baggage convoy, we can gallop to the attack site in time to defeat them after we get the alarm. Stephen thought about it, and said all the previous thoughts, as the general military staff, he was still capable of marching and arranging the strategy.

So this plan was also approved by Hugh, Baldwin, and even Bohemond.

"Finally, at the St. Paul's Gate, where Lord Bohemond is keeping, and where it is connected to the ridge of the city of Antioch, we need to build a stone fortress in close proximity, so that we can not only gain access to Antioch, but also induce the Turks to march through the mountains and let us wait for an opportunity to defeat them. Moreover, the city faces the gates, bridges, and towers to the west, and if we cannot take them, we should block them and restrict the way and the range of the Turks to raid us. ”

"Lord Blois said very well, just follow this plan, any lord, I don't care how high your status is, now the unity must obey the arrangements of the Council of Cardinals in affairs, and obey the subordinates of the General Staff of the Military in military affairs, and if you violate it, you will be punished like the Knight of Sigma." After saying that, Ademar pointed his finger to his side, and everywhere there was a bloody mess of fur, and Sigma was still kneeling there, scarred, and the warbler fell directly on it, almost half a life left, only the breath left, and there was nothing to enter.

Through the oath taken by the priest that night, and under the vigorous punishment, the pilgrims were regrouped according to the subordinates of Count Stephen, and won a series of successive victories:

Tancred was in charge of the first day of sentry guard, when the tower had not been built, he rode alone to provoke outside the gate of Antioch, as a result, the Turks rushed out of thirty elite cavalry, in front of the preset position, was attacked by Tancred's angry counter-raid, this Norman general sword, surrounded by four Turkic and Saracen cavalry, and then all the enemy was killed, and then almost alone, chasing the famous and dejected Turkic cavalry, ran through the entire tower, just when the defenders at the head of the city were about to open the small door for this cavalry, A sword cut him in two, and half of the horse's sin ran to the gate of the city before falling from the saddle;

On the other hand, before the Dog's Gate, Admar and Baldwin personally supervised the formation, and gathered six stone-throwing machines to smash the city walls, day and night, destroying all the outer walls and towers on the opposite side, and then the Franks bravely pushed the carts and large stones, along the stone bridge, under the cover of the stone-throwing machines and shields, braved the rain of arrows, and blocked the four city gates;

Right here in Yaji. While Siyan was attracted by the fierce battle that took place in front of the city of Antioch, the pilgrims suddenly appeared along the ridge in the northern mountains of the city, transported stones with cattle and horses (there was almost no timber in the area), and quickly built a wall horizontally in front of the acropolis wall a mile away. After discovering this, Aji hurriedly sent his son Sansadonias to lead the army, trying to pounce on it and destroy it, but under the city, one left and one right, he was ambushed by the two lords of Bohemond and Raymond, and the witnesses told the priesthood of Ardmar - "Lord Raymond himself stepped on horseback, carried a spear, covered his body with a shield, jumped down the hillside, and launched a swift attack on the infidels, killing three enemy Ghazi warriors, the enemy was routed on all fronts, and the stone castle was in our hands!" Then Lord Bohemond led his army and pursued him for many distances, cutting off the heads of many pagans and taking possession of the springs on the top of the hill. ”

In the port of Saint-Simon, Gregor with the Gimagis brigade also expelled the infidels scattered in the area and harassed the soldiers, and restored the road to the ground;

Venerable Hugh, in the sentry fort south of the city, also intercepted and killed a group of Turks who tried to leave the city.

In short, the good news is frequent. (To be continued.) )
