Chapter 255: The Marquis Enters the City

The mountains are silent, the moon is hazy, and the west is sinking. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ye Xiaofei closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, waiting for the beautiful woman in his arms to sleep, slowly opened his eyes, as far as his eyes could see, there was darkness, he knew that in the dark, the crooked cavalry and clothes were sleeping.

"Girl, I'm sorry." Ye Xiaofei slowly pulled out the hand that hugged Ye Xiaodie, reluctant to give up, but he never dared to wake her up: he was going to sneak into the city of Suggs overnight and meet King Prussia.

Fluttershy had already despaired once, and he no longer had the face or courage to tell her his plans and whereabouts to her face.

Ye Xiaofei's rough hand trembled and stroked the scabbed wound on Ye Xiaodie's neck, and the sword he killed almost caused the separation of yin and yang, which made him feel heartache and palpitations, and his hand couldn't help trembling, so startled that he immediately withdrew his hand, not daring to touch Ye Xiaodie, worried about waking her up.

"Brother, don't go--" Ye Xiaodie said dreamily, grabbing her hands and saying in a panic: "Don't leave me, brother, don't--"

Ye Xiaofei was shocked by the sound and was covered with cold sweat, and when he saw Ye Xiaodie's closed eyes, he guessed that it was a dream, and quickly held the pair of scratches and said, whispering softly in his ear: "I'm here, I've always been, girl, I'm here." ”

"Hmm!" After catching Ye Xiaofei, Ye Xiaodie was satisfied with Ye Xiaofei's hand, held it in her arms, and then fell into a deep sleep.

"Hey," Ye Xiaofei lowered his head guiltily and sighed, physically and mentally exhausted: he couldn't bear it!

But, slowly, cautiously, the fingers were broken apart until she pulled away from Ye Xiaodie's warm embrace, and a sense of loss came over me. At this time, he didn't dare to look at Ye Xiaodie, he was afraid, afraid, afraid that he couldn't leave her.

"Girl," Ye Xiaofei had a lot of thoughts in her heart, and she was reluctant to give up, so she squatted down silently and covered the cloak for her, so as not to be cold at night due to the frost, and catch a cold the next day, and wanted to touch her face one last time.

A teardrop fell silently from the corner of Fluttershy's eyes. Leisurely, a pair of hazy eyes stared at the physically and mentally exhausted figure, swallowing the choking sound back into his stomach.

Fluttershy has never slept.

A confidant is like a pillow person.

When leaning on Ye Xiaofei's arms, Ye Xiaodie heard a trace of unusualness from his messy heartbeat, Ye Xiaofei didn't say anything, she didn't ask: she trusted him.

"Why?" Looking at the departing figure, Ye Xiaodie left sad tears and choked silently: she thought that she could always be together, live and die together. She thought that if she followed the battlefield, she would never be separated again, and she thought that nothing could separate them again. But, this time, not a word? He, just left?

Sweet memories of the past pass by like a marquee. But it makes the heart more bitter, and it gives birth to the meaning of suffering.

"Woo woo woo ---" The tears of grievance, helpless crying, echoed leisurely, making the mountains look particularly desolate, and she, Ye Xiaodie, could no longer control her emotions: Ye Xiaofei's departure caused a huge blow to her.

Ye Xiaofei, who had not gone far, was shocked, stopped stupidly, turned his head stiffly, looked back, tears, and didn't know when his eyes were moistened. In his ears, the irrepressible crying echoed, like a needle, piercing his heart.

"Girl!" Ye Xiaofei took two steps back stupidly, and suddenly woke up: He still has responsibilities, the responsibilities of a subject, and the responsibility of a man. Slowly, straighten your waist, like a mountain, turn around, and run wildly in the mountains.

The two people who have just experienced death and parting, under the cruel reality, it is difficult to escape from life.

"Girl, wait for me!" This is Ye Xiaofei's comfort to himself! It's also to give yourself a glimmer of hope.

Purple Electric Meow and Five-Colored Sparrow were left by Ye Xiaofei to protect Ye Xiaodie, and tomorrow morning, the cavalry team will retreat to the Broken Dragon Cliff with great fanfare, and at that time, Ye Xiaodie will be safe. Even if the big stone in my heart falls.

"Lord Marquis!" A team of moon elves was waiting here early, and immediately gave Ye Xiaofei a salute.

"Well," Ye Xiaofei, who was depressed, responded, climbed on the war horse and said, "Let's go!" ”

The Moon Elves silently march towards the city of Suggs.

The city of Suggs is full of disasters. War and disaster have been inextricably linked to the city. First, the Fire Dragon Kingdom attacked the city of Sargs, and then the demon Nicholas washed the palace in blood, and the whole city panicked and fled. At this time, it was besieged by an army of 300,000 beasts.

Defeat after defeat, defeat after defeat!

After two months of war, this majestic city showed a dilapidated trend, and the tall walls were precarious. It seems that if you look at it again, it will collapse. The city defense is full of mistakes and omissions, like a dying old man, who has to choke his breath at any time.

"Smack!" Heavy footsteps.

Ye Xiaofei retracted his gaze, hid sideways in the shadow of the tent, and cautiously poked his head out: the patrol, ten people, their eyes were scattered, and they looked around without a glance.

After a long time of attacking, the morale of the army is low, and this is the periphery, the orc patrol is just a routine patrol, more like going through the motions, looking forward to the time when the time comes, changing the next team, is there no need to guard against anything, in their impression, in the land of the Nord Kingdom, there is no longer a formed army, otherwise, their main force will not attack the Fire Dragon Kingdom without taking the city of Saggs. After all, Suggs City was like a nail, cutting off their way back north, threatening their transportation and logistical supplies.

It is also reflected from the side that the powerful Nord Kingdom has died, at least, the orcs can no longer find any reason to turn it around.

Ye Xiaofei straightened his tight black night clothes, turned his head, and touched towards the edge of the barracks.

Tonight, the god of luck favored him.

In the past, the orc army liked to attack overnight, bullying humans without night vision, under the cover of night, they could easily approach the city wall, and if they coerced some civilians to attack the city and create some human wails, they could make the humans who couldn't see things clearly throw rats, and they didn't dare to open their bows and didn't dare to shoot crossbows. Even the terrifying magic crystal cannon can only silently suffer dumb losses.

But, tonight, unusually quiet, the night raid that had been attacking continuously for a month stopped surprisingly tonight, and stopped without symptoms, but it made the humans tremble all night, thinking that the orcs were going to play some trick again, the sentry posts were doubled, and there were more patrols than usual.

However, in the big tent of the beast clan, the generals of the unified army widened their eyes, and their red necks quarreled: they were discussing the fall of Dragon's Tooth City, completely cutting off their way back to the north, and whether the supplies in seven days could arrive on time. What's even more hellish is that a half-orc army of 2,000 people, less than half a day after going out, a few cats and dogs died, and they were ambushed by the human army, and they were defeated in an instant, and they opened their mouths to say that they were ambushed by two human armies.

Damn it! These filthy orcs really have no brains, and two human legions dare to find fault? Twenty human legions to humans would not dare to provoke an army of 300,000 orcs. It must be to take the blame for not being defeated, exaggerating, and the few cats, dogs, and half-orcs who escaped back by luck were suddenly escaped from the battle and all of them were beheaded for public display.

The life of an orc is worthless in the eyes of an orc. Even if there is a mountain of equipment in the warehouse, the orcs will not give a set to the naked orcs, preferring to rot in the warehouse.

Ye Xiaofei saw the ruined city wall, he called it lucky to the extreme, he couldn't believe it, he looked back at the brightly lit beast clan barracks, and then looked at the city wall that was all within reach, and finally affirmed that this was not a dream. He still had an opportunity to use the stealth technique in his hand, but he sighed that it didn't come in handy, and he regretted it.

"Look! Where is there a dark shadow! On the city wall, with the warning, the soldiers nervously clenched their weapons.

"Yes, go and tell the garrison chief, come here, push the crossbow to defend the city, how can one be enough? Push up all 10 crosses, and aim for me! Ye Xiaofei's appearance seemed to prove the conspiracy theory that the orcs did not attack the city, and the proud smile on the soldier's face was full of the conspiracy to see through the conspiracy, adding a lot of strength, and the three of them were stunned to push the giant city defense crossbow that needed five people to push to the wall battlement, and the crossbow arrow with thick arm pointed at the sneaky black shadow.

Ye Xiaofei's heart trembled for no reason, and he looked around uneasily, trying to find something that made him uneasy.

"To shoot or not to shoot?" The soldiers looked at each other, and one of the archers gently shook the wheel to adjust the angle of the shot.

"Shoot!" A soldier said uncertainly: "This must be a conspiracy of the orcs, shoot it to death, and let the conspiracy go bankrupt." ”

"Yes, that's right. Look at me," the archer held the trigger, his body was short, he aimed his crosshair at Ye Xiaofei, and shouted: "Eagle Eye Technique!" ”

Eagle Eye, which allows humans to temporarily gain night vision and farsightedness, is a pure auxiliary spiritual skill, and free glory spirits and mercenaries will never waste a spiritual skill slot to learn this pure auxiliary spiritual skill. Only the army will sacrifice the individual and arrange people to study for the sake of overall strength. However, even so, only the front-line legions have the ability to arrange people to learn the Eagle Eye Technique. Although it is a pure auxiliary spiritual skill, it is a silver-level spiritual skill, which is worth thousands of gold, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The uneasiness in Ye Xiaofei's heart was even worse, and he turned his head and looked hard. However, he clearly looked in the wrong direction, and handed over his back to ten giant crossbows like an idiot.

"Shoot! Shoot fast! The soldiers urged impatiently.

The archer who turned on the Eagle Eye Technique stared at him in a daze, and said, "That figure is too human-like to shoot!" ”

"What's the situation?" An officer-like warrior came in strode and asked in a low voice, "Who let you use the giant crossbow without permission?" Now the bolts are missing, and they are all removed from me. ”

"Captain of the Guard!" The soldiers hurriedly saluted.

The person who came is the chief of the garrison of this section of the city wall, and the duty of the chief guard is to live and die with this section of the city wall, and he is also the person with the most combat power and right to speak.

"Your Excellency!" The bow and arrow that turned on the Eagle Eye technique announced: "It should be humans, probably civilians who died on the battlefield during the battle, and they took advantage of the night to flee for their lives. ”

"There are traitors to humanity too." The head of the garrison said uncertainly, there are not a few humans who rebel against the orcs, and a few days ago, a group wanted to open the city gate and let the orcs in.

"My lord, that dark shadow has started to move!" A soldier shouted.

"Damn," Ye Xiaofei scolded with palpitations, and said, "What the hell, with my strength, I couldn't find out, what kind of threat is it?" ”

As the giant crossbow retreated, the uneasiness disappeared like the wind, coming and going without a trace, but it scared Ye Xiaofei into a cold sweat.

After walking a few steps, Ye Xiaofei raised his head sharply and dodged a torch that fell from the sky, and at this time, he found that on the thirty-nine-meter-high city wall, dozens of heads were vying to look at each other.

"Hey!" Ye Xiaofei lowered his voice and shouted, "Brothers, quickly hang me up." ”

Ye Xiaofei was afraid that he would be heard by the threat that appeared just now, so he shouted and looked back cautiously, as if something would appear in the darkness at any time and kill him.

"It's definitely not a good thing, it's definitely a spy." There are soldiers.

The head of the garrison snorted, and in a normal voice, asked, "Who are you?" Why is it here? What are the intentions? ”

"I'm a good person!" Ye Xiaofei subconsciously replied. The voice of the garrison chief could be heard three miles away, which frightened him again and again, and his head clicked for a while.

Sou!

An arrow landed at Ye Xiaofei's feet, splashing a few grains of dirt.

"Hell!" Ye Xiaofei was startled, and saw which commander put away his longbow and put away his longbow: Kill his own people?

"Answer my question! Otherwise, the next arrow will be stuck in your head. The garrison shouted.

Ye Xiaofei is angry! The dignified marquis of a country, suspected of being surrounded by the enemy, but being shot by his own people, is simply unjust. A sentence flashed in his mind: Hades is easy to deal with, but the little ghost is difficult.

"Bastard!" Ye Xiaofei scolded, couldn't hide his voice anymore, threw a token on the thirty-nine high wall, and said angrily: "Open your glasses wide, see clearly!" ”

Bang Dang! The black-gold marquis's decree fell on the city walls.

The head of the garrison looked at the marquis's order that reflected the color of non-gold and non-jade in the firelight, his face was purple, and he dared to spit out and scolded, swallowed back, and said in disbelief: "This is yours?" Are you the Marquis of Ye Xiaofei? ”

"It's like a fake!" Ye Xiaofei put his hands on his waist and glared at the other party angrily, you have a big deal!

The garrison chief was so anxious that he glanced at the arrow inserted at Ye Xiaofei's feet, and he couldn't wait to swallow it alive. Shooting the Marquis of the country is a capital crime.

"What? Put the hanging basket now! The guard was like an ant on a hot pot, jumping to his feet and saying, "If something happens to me, don't think about it." ”

Suddenly, the soldiers of the entire section of the city wall pulled Ye Xiaofei up the city wall in a panic.

"See, Lord Marquis!" The chief of the garrison bowed half-kneeling in fear, originally a man in armor, it was okay to bow to the chest, but this thing was afraid that Ye Xiaofei would make him tease, and his eyes were dodgy.

Ye Xiaofei was originally furious and wanted to hold this waiting soldier accountable, but with just one glance, he couldn't say a word of reproach, but instead stepped forward to help the garrison chief, and said in a harmonious voice: "Get up, thank you for your hard work!" The Kingdom is proud of you. ”

On the city wall, more than half of the wall buttresses were damaged, and the traces of the fire were all over the city wall, stained with blood, smearing the entire section of the city wall, completely covering the original color, forming a black-brown city wall. Under the firelight, the naked upper body of the guard in front of him was covered with scars, and a deep wound that could be seen cut across the corner of his left eye, cutting off half of his ear. Of the remaining dozens of soldiers, few were unwounded.

"Lord Marquis! Your token. The garrison commander respectfully raised the marquis's order.

To the east, the morning dawns.

Ye Xiaofei retracted his gaze and said calmly: "Where is your general?" I have something to do with the king at once. ”

"Lord Marquis! Here, please," said the chief of the garrison, leading the way, "Yesterday afternoon, His Majesty summoned all the generals and ministers into the palace to discuss the matter, and did not return all night. ”

Ye Xiaofei was stunned, he didn't even want the city defense? What is it? So important?

"Do you know what's going on?" Ye Xiaofei subconsciously asked, and after exiting, he realized that how could a garrison chief know about the affairs of the Chinese military state.

The garrison chief hesitated for a moment or two before he said: "The sky has changed, and the whole city is spreading that it has changed." It was already unstable in the hearts of the people, and suddenly led to a riot, last night, someone actually climbed out of the city wall without permission and surrendered to the orcs, but they were killed by the orcs on the spot. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Ye Xiaofei couldn't believe it, had someone already begun to surrender? What happened yesterday?

Turn the stairs of the tower. It happened to be dawn, sprinkled with light, and cast light.

Ruins, ruins. The ruins were full of corpses.

"This?" Ye Xiaofei stopped, and these corpses spread all the way to the end of the field of vision, one after the other, endlessly, as if there were millions of corpses discarded in the ruins.

"My lord, be careful, don't step on it." The head of the garrison whispered, "These are not corpses, but refugees. Before the Orc siege, at least a few million refugees poured into the city. The war is ruthless, in two months, at least a million refugees have died, and these old and weak women and children in front of them can't squeeze into the inner city, so they have to be here, but they have to endure the war of the beasts, and they will die at any time. ”

"Hmm," Ye Xiaofei pretended to be indifferent, looking at the unclothed refugees in front of him, one by one thinner and thinner, his heart was crying: The people of the Nord Kingdom should not be devastated by war again. His mercy does not allow civilians to suffer.

"Lord Marquis, my subordinates have to go back to guard the city wall, this is Lord Deputy General." Garrison the long road.

"Marquis?" The deputy general looked Ye Xiaofei up and down suspiciously. Where else are the Marquis of Norson Kingdom?

"You should know this." Ye Xiaofei showed the marquis's order again.

"Allow the subordinate to offend, please let the subordinates check one or two." The deputy general was shocked at first, but he still didn't believe it, if it was really a marquis, he would have fled to the Svadia kingdom a long time ago, at least, eighty percent of the nobles in the kingdom had fled, how could there be a marquis who risked great danger and sneaked into this mortal city?

"Take it!" Ye Xiaofei handed over the Marquis's Order, the Marquis' Order is the top alchemy item in the kingdom, and its quality is higher than that of a spiritual weapon, but unfortunately there is no Instrument Spirit.

"Your Excellency, take a break." The deputy general didn't say a word, went out and handed over the token to the guards, wanting to verify the authenticity as soon as possible, and the chief magician of the palace could see it at a glance.

Ye Xiaofei took care of himself and changed his clothes in the military tent, threw the black night suit into the space ring, and wore armor again in a rare way.

The Marquis had ceremonial armor awarded to the Marquis. It's not practical, but it's majestic.

The golden tasseled helmet, carved mysterious totem, a divine eagle stands on the tip of the tassel, looking down on all beings, although the eagle is small, but lifelike, the eyes bloom with divine light.

Gilded Bright Light Mirror Tiger Head Armor, Griffin Izumo Golden Boots.

Ye Xiaofei usually doesn't like to wear marquis armor, it's too cumbersome, with more than a dozen pieces of equipment in bits and pieces, and it takes half an hour just to wear them.

Gauntlets, handguards, leggings, stem armor, chain mail Mithril gloves, coiled dragon broken jade belt.

After putting it on, Ye Xiaofei was like a golden-armored god, not angry and self-assured.

Putting on the last scarlet robe finally made Ye Xiaofei breathe a sigh of relief. Ye Xiaofei, who has always been low-key, is dressed neatly for the first time, if it weren't for the morale boost, he might never touch this set of armor given to him by the king for the rest of his life.

"See Lord Marquis!" The deputy general didn't know when he entered the big tent, his face was full of shock, and when Ye Xiaofei turned around, he immediately knelt down on half a knee, lowered his puzzled head just now, and said, "Subordinates should be damned, offend Lord Marquis." ”

"Huh?" Ye Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, and said, "Get up, you have verified the authenticity of the Marquis Lingde so quickly?" ”

The marquis's order was on its way to the palace, but the marquis's armor was enough to prove his identity.

At that moment, the deputy general arched his hand and said: "Lord Marquis, the marquis's order has not yet been verified, and it is being sent to the palace, my lord, I will escort you into the palace." ”

The sun rises in the east, shedding the first rays of golden light, falling on the golden armor, shining brightly, like a star falling on the ground, golden light, like a star, walking among the ruins, bringing the light of hope.

Tap Tap, Tap!

Ye Xiaofei took the lead, and the crowd of early risers avoided it one after another, and the refugees who were originally crowded with the entire street begging automatically revealed a broad avenue. There were even many refugees who were so hungry that they couldn't even tell their stomachs that they knelt on the ground and muttered: "There is help!" There is salvation!

Palace!

The generals and ministers who had been deliberating all night still could not pay any attention, and the Prussian king, who was dragging his sick body, coughed repeatedly, attracting everyone's sideways.

"Your Majesty!" A dignified man, silver armor and silver helmet, forty or fifty years old, dragged his tired body and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, please take care of your health, the kingdom cannot live without you." ”

The Prussian king finally stopped coughing his heart and lungs, but felt a fishy sweetness fill his mouth, and looked down at his handkerchief, a touch of red.

Cough up blood raw!

The King of Prussia casually hid his handkerchief so as not to be seen, but his slightly bent old body stood up straight, as if it could hold up a piece of the sky. Hearing this, he smiled knowingly.

Arthur! The current commander of the Legion of Glory, Arthur, the most trusted man of the King of Prussia, was entrusted with the important task of serving as the commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief. The 100,000 garrisons of the city of Suggs, all the city defenses, were all entrusted to Arthur, a middle-aged man who was angry like a lion, calm and like a pool of stagnant water. He was the reassurance of the King of Prussia and kept him going.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what are your plans for the current situation?" The King of Prussia asked again with no hope.

Suddenly, an old man wearing a purple ** robe, the robe was embroidered with stars in the sky, the moon on the left sleeve, and the sun on the right. The old man with a silver beard and white hair walked hurriedly and broke straight into the main hall. Without any etiquette, he rushed to the Prussian king's ear and whispered, only to hear the Prussian king's face change color again and again, and his hands could not help trembling.

The hall was silent, something big must have happened, otherwise the chief magician of the court: Brindy would never let go of the grace of a magician, and disregard the courtesy of a monarch. Coupled with the fact that the Prussian king's uncontrollable face turned purple, you know, this is very bad news.

"Bold!" The King of Prussia shouted angrily, and then burst out again: "How is it possible? ”

When Brindy, the chief magician of the court, finished speaking, he stood beside the Prussian king lifelessly, as if he was contagious, and the Prussian king was also full of ashes, and his eyes were slightly unfocused.

Yesterday was what later generations called: The Beginning of the Age of Chaos!

However, only those who were at that time could feel the despair brought about by the beginning of the era of chaos.

"Stand down!" The King of Prussia waved his hand weakly. He did not dare to make the news public. Once announced, those cowardly nobles will definitely go out of the city and surrender, even taking up arms against the army that is blocking them.

At this time, another reckless guy broke in, it was the deputy general's personal soldier. was stopped by the guards outside the hall, but, at once, attracted everyone's attention: Could it be that there is worse information?

The ministers who were about to retire stopped one after another.

"Your people?" The King of Prussia turned his head and glanced at Brindy, the chief magician of the court.

Brindi shook his head in confusion, his men were all magicians.

The guards obviously wouldn't let this reckless soldier break in, but when the other party took out the marquis' order, he didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly touched the black-gold marquis' order, and hurried into the hall.

"Your Majesty, General Arthur!" The guard spoke quickly and quickly, holding the marquis's order in his hand.

"What?" The Prussian king's face changed, and the marquis's order reminded him for the first time of the heyday of the Norsen Kingdom, known as the Norsen Wings, and had two marquises, the Marquis of Tehran and the Marquis of Clark, but these two marquises were still all dead. What is this Marquis Order? A young figure flashed through the head of the King of Prussia: Marquis of Clarke's successor: Ye Xiaofei, the envoy to the elven court, is he back?

"Marquis Order!" "Where did the Marquis Order come from?" The ministers discussed one after another. Although Ye Xiaofei is a marquis, he is low-key and abnormal, only the nobles and officials of the original Suggs region really know Ye Xiaofei's existence, and as soon as he became a marquis, he defeated the then Chancellor of the Exchequer, the veteran Earl of Labour.

"What's the situation?" The commander of Arthur's corps recognized the captain of the personal soldiers outside the door, and hurriedly asked the guards.

"In the early hours of this morning, a person suddenly appeared under the city wall, saying that he was the Marquis of Ye Xiaofei, and showed this order, and asked the chief magician to distinguish the authenticity."

Brindy, the chief magician of the court, was stunned for a moment, and the image of the demon Nikolai in the palace of blood came to mind, and the young figure was holding a thin sword and a strange weapon to repel the demon Nikolai. At that time, even he was helpless, believing that the king and himself would not escape death. Perhaps, he returned at this time with a miracle.

Brindy shook the void and no one could see what was happening, and the Marquis Order appeared in his hand.

"It's true! Marquis Ye Xiaofei is here. ”

"Welcome!" The King of Prussia spat out a word and went out to greet him.

Everyone was in an uproar, this? A king rises to greet a marquis? Throughout the history of the Kingdom of Norson, this is the only time.
