Chapter 649: Reinforcements in the Night Sky

"At night, the sentries have to keep an eye on the sky. ”

Charles pestered Artoria several times to tell him bedtime stories about her war before she found out who she really was. When talking about the night battle, Artoria's words puzzled Charles.

Artoria later explained, "Both armies have classes that are good at night raids, the demons who have not yet rebelled on the Rurik Empire, and the griffon knights on the human side, both of whom are good at launching raids from the night sky. ”

In this land where the kingdom of Bischberg is located, the domestication of griffons has a history of thousands of years, and the inheritance of griffin domestication has not been interrupted regardless of the change of dynasties.

To this day, the royal family of Bischberg claims that the Praetorian Guard consisted of fifty griffon knights and several griffon cavalry.

The intelligence departments of various countries expressed strong dissatisfaction with the strategic deception of the Bischberg Kingdom with their eyes open and nonsense, believing that the relevant departments of the Bischberg Kingdom regarded themselves as fools.

According to the analysis of the intelligence department of the Elven Royal Court, the griffin strength of the Bischberg Kingdom is between two hundred and four hundred, and it is not impossible to break through five hundred.

If it weren't for the high meat consumption of griffons for 100 kilometers, the Kingdom of Bischberg would have exploded the Griffin Sea and dominated the continent long ago.

Many people see griffins in the daytime, and only those who have witnessed them know that the night sky is where griffins exert their power.

At the very moment when the final battle outside Onna began, griffons flew slowly from a low altitude, and the Praetorian Guards who came to the aid of griffons jumped directly from the griffons' backs.

A griffin can fly long distances with a load of up to 150 kg and short distances with a load of up to 500 kg.

Onna City was not far from Seven Hills City, and a griffon carrying two additional Praetorian Guard soldiers was in the procession.

Not long after, a group of ten Praetorian Guards passed through the people waving barbecue and cheering with a bewildered face, and came to the bridge to change their defenses.

They prepared for the worst on the way, expecting to be greeted by corpses all over the ground, wailing crowds, and people with dead hearts.

No one expected that they would be greeted by a large barbecue scene. The exuberant bonfire, the smell of meat wafting through the air, and even the barbecue handed over, isn't this the wrong way?

The junior officer of the city defense army guarding the bridgehead breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the reinforcements coming, and after saluting the Praetorian Guard officer who led the team, he said excitedly, "I finally looked forward to you." ”

The Praetorian Guard officer pointed to the large barbecue scene over there and asked, "What's going on?"

The little officer said with some trepidation, "Thanks to the Earl of Maccaden, if it weren't for him, maybe we wouldn't have seen the sun tomorrow." ”

Then he told the Praetorian Guard officers all about the events of the day.

Meanwhile, Charles, by the campfire, paid no attention to the fighting in the south and intently nibbled on the roast in his hand.

Many of the monsters can swim, and those who can swim find a place near Lake Pergusa in the south with a gentle slope on both sides of the river, trying to draw the attention of the defensive forces to the head of the stone arch bridge, and then cross the river at night and then carry out a sneak attack from the south to the north.

It's just that the people here are extremely familiar with the local terrain, and they found that those demonic beasts guessed each other's thoughts after sending meat to the bridge in a group.

So Bishop Rossi set up an ambush on the south side with the main force, and Charles was in charge of guarding the bridgehead here, so that he could destroy the bridge if necessary.

Now that reinforcements have arrived, Charles will have nothing to do.

This time, Qiqiu City sent at least thirty griffins, and the people in charge of the ground battle were all elites in the Praetorian Guard, ten people guarded the bridge, and at least fifty people blocked the main force of the demonic beasts in the south.

"Are you all right?!" Ganaro breathed a sigh of relief after finding Charles, who was munching meat, and Deborah, who was roasting Charles.

Charles didn't look at him, but looked at the barbecue in his hand and said, "At a glance, you know that you came back when you were full, so don't eat the barbecue." ”

That being said, Deborah took half of the freshly grilled skewer in her hand and handed it to Gnaro.

Charles asked Genaro, "Why is it so late?"

Gnaro, who was sitting next to Charles and munching on barbecue, whispered, "Your Majesty is here." ”

Charles pointed to the upper part of the city with the roast in his hand, and Genaro nodded.

Gnaro asked in a low voice, "Have you seen the devil before?"

Charles nodded slightly, it seemed that his previous letter to Antoine II had worked, and he was concerned about the matter.

Garnaro was a little excited, and he asked a little excitedly, "Can you talk to me?"

Charles shook his head, "I don't have time now, let's talk about it when I have a chance." ”

After saying that, he looked at the upper city side and sneered twice.

At this time, Gnaro asked again, "What do you think should be done this time?"

Charles shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's good that we just watched the play on the sidelines, anyway, we were just passing by, and we did everything that should be done, and we didn't do anything that shouldn't be done at all." ”

Gnaro was relieved when he saw Charles's indifferent appearance, thinking that Antoine II would not embarrass Charles, the future son-in-law, and his grandmother and Antoine II's mother were sisters, as long as he didn't die, he was afraid of a ghost.

While Genaro was eating Deborah's roast that originally belonged to Charles, there was a flurry of chickens and dogs in the castle of Upper Town.

Duke Beretta didn't go out in his bedroom for a few days, and he spent that time in non-stop piston sports.

With a "boom", the bedroom door was kicked open, and Antoine II, wearing armor and a long sword hanging from his waist, walked into the bedroom.

Antoine II looked gloomily at the girl lying on the floor in the bedroom, then at his brother, who was by the windowsill and did not pay attention to his arrival, and waved his hand to the person behind him without saying a word.

The royal knights moved all the maidens out of the ground, and one of the knights stepped forward to twist Duke Beretta before the king.

It's just that as soon as the knight pulled Duke Beretta away from behind the dying girl, he was thrown over the shoulder by Duke Beretta and put on the ground.

Next, Duke Beretta, with red eyes, pounced on the knight on the ground.

When Antoine II went over and knocked Duke Beretta unconscious with his scabbard, the hapless knight's pants were torn apart.

At this time, a black-robed man appeared behind Antoine II and whispered, "The butler is gone." ”

Antoine II frowned, realized that the problem was not simple, and asked, "Did you leave the castle?"

The black-robed man replied, "No one saw him leave. ”

Antoine II's brow tightened even more, and there were secret passages in the castle to escape from the castle without a sound.

He had lived here for a time when he was a child, and he had a clear secret passage where there was a secret passage, so he began to search for the secret passages with the most loyal guards of the dead.

At the bottom of the mountain, Charles was about to sleep while he had nothing to do, when suddenly there was a sound of collapse not far south of the barbecue site.

Charles jumped up and found that something had happened to the toilet.

Eating and drinking for 20,000 people was a problem, and Lazar was an even bigger problem, so Charles dug two large pits in the ground and fenced them off with linen to use as latrines.

But no one expected that these two dung pits would suddenly collapse.
