…………

The patrol team armed with spears has banned the Gray Mist City, and these guys who were originally only responsible for maintaining law and order have now changed to the chain mail stored in the warehouse, and the spears in their hands are also more sophisticated, all of which are standard weapons of the regular army.

But the infantry of this patrol team had a little panic and uneasiness on their faces, especially the patrol infantry on the low city wall in the outer harbor area and the outer city, and they looked at the outside of the city wall nervously, and there was a strange sound, and they all subconsciously wanted to hide behind the breastwork, looking like poor quails.

Not only them, but even the poor and common people living in the outer harbor and the outer city have lived in fear, and for them, as long as they have some access and wealth, they have fled to Samar City.

Because they had already been horrified yesterday to find that the elite troops who had left the inner city of Gray Mist City in a rage were covered in blood when they returned, and even looking at their embarrassed appearance, they knew that these elite troops that had once shocked the entire Northern Trumchi Sea were all defeated defeated troops in front of them.

Well-informed, it is already known that the object of this expedition is in fact the lord of Cape Town, the rebel who hooked up with the rebel viscount.

But unexpectedly, the conquest troops, which were supposed to be ten out of ten, fled back in disgrace in half a day after the expedition, including the few battleships left, and the infantry who struggled to escape back in the dense forest.

Especially in the past two days, in the primeval jungle from the east coast to the gray fog city, where there are not many roads at all, many groups or lone routs have gradually appeared, and after collecting everyone and counting, it is also impressive to find that there were more than 2,500 elite infantry, and now there are less than 1,500 left, which can be called more than half of the losses.

And yes, a huge loss, almost the entire backbone of Grey Mist City was broken!

The first to return were the more than 500 members of the knights who had war horses, and they did not directly participate in the battle as the highest-end combat power, so they also fled the fastest when they fled, without losing a single person or a single person.

But it was because of this that they could feel despair, and in the midst of the dense rain of bullets, a heavy infantry man dressed in fine chain mail and armed with swords and shields rushed forward, only to get the result of only piling up corpses in the way of their feet, which was simply the greatest ridiculous, and deeply pathetic.

Even if they fled, they didn't know what the enemy's casualties were, and they didn't even manage to rush up the wall, which was just over four meters high, and the morale of the entire unit that had been beaten collapsed, and they scurried around like headless flies.

So the observation group of the nobles, who were also supposed to be the members of the knights who were supposed to deal the final blow to the enemy, did not even really set foot on the battlefield, and after noticing the tragic battle situation on the frontal battlefield, they fled one after another, not caring at all about the elite infantry who were originally respectful to themselves.

Because they are not consumables, they are nobles and gentlemen, decent people with status, and those elite infantry are not of the same class, and it is not worth dying in battle like that.

And their task is also to find out information for the high nobles behind them, and now such a grim fact is in front of them, almost most of these knights have family backers, what they have to do is not to rush forward and call on the group of heavy infantry who are about to collapse to fight bravely, but to flee back in time and send back the news of the heavy casualties of the conscription troops.

Including the construction of Cape Town, as well as the way of attacking, and that impressive, dwarven firearms!

At this time, the commanding general also waited in the conference room with his head down, and he escaped from the dense forest and was covered with filth, but at this time he had also been cleaned up, which set off his whole person was extremely elegant, because he was a high-ranking nobleman in Gray Mist City, and he was an elegant and decent person.

But his current expression was extremely unbearable, without the slightest calm and indifference that a nobleman should have, but his whole face was distorted, and his eyes were also extremely nervous.

Raising his head slightly, he looked at the small door in the living room next to him, as a frequent visitor to the Governor's Castle, of course he knew that two elite Governor's Guards were waiting outside, although they were guards, they were actually watching him.

As a defeated man, he buried most of the main forces of Gray Mist City, and made the reputation of the Governor fall from the top to the bottom in an instant, without the slightest so-called honor to speak of, at this time, what he hopes most is to be able to get the Governor's forgiveness, even a punishment is much better than sitting here.

Having fled from the east coast, he had been sitting here for the night, without a drink or food, and it seemed that there was no provision for him in the governor's castle.

Although he was hungry in his belly, this once elegant and chic commander didn't feel that he wanted to eat anything at all, his hands trembled slightly, and it took a lot of strength to keep his whole person from trembling with fright, but the panic in his eyes still couldn't be hidden.

"Mr. Joshua, is it in there?"

A flat voice came from outside, a little hoarse, and with the response of the members of the Doge's Guard, the owner of this voice also slowly reached out and pushed open the door, and walked in to look at the burly man with a look of longing in his eyes, but there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Oh, good morning." ”

He spoke slowly, as the butler in the Governor's Castle, Paul knew that the Mr. Joshua in front of him must know him, and the smile on the corner of his mouth did not have any expression, just like an instinctive reaction of muscles pulling up, and at the same time said lightly: "It's really a wonderful battle, it really made most people not expect that there would be such a result." ”

"I... I... I'm sorry... Mr. Paul... I..."

Joshua commanded the war, but the fiasco made him slowly open his mouth, unable to say anything at all, like a sturgeon on the shore, as if he was suffocating even his breath.

Everyone understands the consequences of this battle, even Joshua, a member of the high-ranking aristocratic circle in Grey Mist City, with a prominent family honor and heritage in Grey Mist City, still can't afford this tragic defeat, and even if the entire circle of high-ranking nobles unites, they can't make up for the consequences of this defeat.

The rule of the Governor is no longer as comprehensive as before, and it has even begun to be precarious, because in today's Great Silver Plate Island, the power that can really challenge the Governor has appeared.

"It's hard for us to do, Mr. Joshua."

The butler Paul looked at Joshua, the smile on the corner of his mouth was still high, he came to him and sat down slowly, the whole person was also unusually elegant and decent, and said: "We have asked many people about the details of the battlefield, so we know a lot of things, and we also feel sorry for this." ”

"It's... Yes..."Joshua's breathing was slightly rapid, and he looked at the housekeeper Paul in front of him, as if he had found a savior, swallowed and spat and said eagerly: "They... They have dwarven muskets! ”

"Dwarven muskets, of course, and dwarven artillery."

With a smile on his face, Paul slowly reached out and touched his neatly groomed mustache, nodded and said, "This has been told to me by others, and I also know that dwarven muskets and dwarven cannons are very powerful, more than ordinary bows and ballistas. ”

The tone softened slightly, Paul looked at Joshua in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was still flat: "But why are you defeated?" ”

His tone was still flat, but there was also a question in this blandness, which made the cold sweat on Joshua's face flow down uncontrollably, the trembling of his hands became more and more severe, and even his legs and whole body were trembling, and he trembled extremely nervously: "I... I... I can't help it..."

"No way?"

Paul's butler's face was gloomy, he slowly leaned forward, his thin hand was directly placed on Joshua's head, and his wrinkled hand also clenched his hair tightly, not giving this high-ranking nobleman the so-called honor and decency at all, but with hideous hatred in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said: "You can't help it?!" ”

His whole person lost the grace and demeanor just now, just like a red-eyed gambler, holding Joshua's hair and pressing it fiercely on the table in front of him, and said angrily: "Do you know, you have ruined everything now!" ”

Joshua's originally handsome and well-maintained face was tightly pressed against the table, and as a high-ranking nobleman, he had no intention of resisting Paul, the most important butler of the Governor in front of him, just gasping for breath, with extreme trepidation in his eyes.

"Could it be that Cape likes to use information on dwarven firearms, and I didn't inform you?"

Paul's butler's voice was vicious, with anger and gnashing hatred: "The dwarven firearms can only be released once, and if they can withstand these attacks and rush forward, they have no way at all, don't you know?!" ”

His dry hand seemed to have strong strength, and he picked up this burly man, and his face slapped the table fiercely with his hand, and said: "Are you so stupid, you gave up half of the main elite, fled back in disgrace, and didn't even dare to send him to death?!" ”

"Spare me... Spare me... Paul the Steward..."

As if feeling scared, tears flowed from the corners of Joshua's eyes, and his voice kept pleading, and he said bitterly to him in a trembling voice: "They... They're different, they're really different..."

Although he said this again, Joshua's mind recalled the fiasco on the east coast, in fact, he didn't see too many details, but when he remembered the naval battle, his own fleet was easily sunk by the six warships of Cape Town, and he seemed to have discovered something, and howled loudly: "They, their artillery, are stronger than the dwarves!" ”

Joshua's words seemed to arouse Paul's interest, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, and he slowly stopped wiping his hands on the table with the face of this high-ranking nobleman.

"Their artillery is stronger than the dwarven drunkards?"

Paul's face was still gloomy, and there was a certain hysteria on his well-maintained face, and he looked at Joshua with bloodshot eyes, and there was a bit of mockery in his tone: "But, so what? ”

"Are the dwarven muskets, the dwarven cannons, worthy of our archers, our ballistas, and our fierce elite infantry armed with swords, shields, and halberds?"

He looked at Joshua, and there was deep hatred in his tone: "That is one of the hole cards accumulated in Grey Mist City, and it was so easily given to you to be buried, do you know how angry the Governor is, and even wants to order your family to be removed from Grey Mist City from now on." ”

"No, no, Mr. Paul, no, no, it shouldn't be like this..."

Joshua is like a frightened rabbit, the whole person is in tears, he can't afford the price of the nobleman's expulsion, even if he dies, he must not affect the family, this is a way of life among the nobles.

Otherwise, once his family is destroyed, even if all of them are still alive, the consequences will be extremely miserable.

Because even if becoming a nobleman is high, there are also some dark places, and they still have the strength to suppress it, once they lose their former aristocratic status, their consequences are not much better than death.

"There's another way, you know, Mr. Joshua."

And Steward Paul also calmed his mood, looking at this guy who made him want to kill directly, he also gritted his teeth and said softly: "Now Gray Mist City needs stability, and some restless guys have already made a little change. After a pause, he continued: "You need to show your loyalty. ”

"Of course, I understand, I understand, Paul Steward!"

Joshua was not a stupid fellow, he immediately understood Paul's words, and the whole person stood up tremblingly, gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely: "No one can oppose the authority of the Governor!" ”

Squinting slightly, Paul looked at this guy, and nodded lightly, "I hope so." Slowly turning and walking outside, he also smiled and said, "It's better to hurry, Lord Governor, you don't want you to mess up the mission again, and you know the consequences." ”
