Chapter Seventy-Four: Transition
Northern Ireland is known as the Green Kingdom, where the natural scenery is beautiful, the air is fresh, the vast green grasslands and countless green mountains and green waters outline the unique natural landscape of Northern Ireland with "green" as the main line.
It's the time of spring, which makes the green kingdom of Northern Ireland look extraordinary.
Capital - Belfast.
"How's it going?" asked Lea as she looked ahead with a frown, and asked Lancelot beside her.
"No, I can't. Lancelot shook his head and replied. Then he continued: "Ever since we came here with our army, they have been shut out, and no matter how much Gawain and their shouting and provocations, there has been no reaction from inside. However, in the case of a strong attack, since most of our army is cavalry, it is not suitable for this kind of siege warfare, so not only will the losses be great, but the effect will be very small. ”
"Where are their food sources?" asked Lia after a moment's thought.
Hearing this, Lancelot smiled bitterly and said: "When they were closed and did not fight, I also wanted to besiege them inside, and when they ran out of food, they would naturally come out and surrender, but I didn't expect that it had been several months, and they had not yet experienced a shortage of food." ”
"Are you prepared in advance?, or are there any special passages to get food?" said in a low voice with a frown.
"Anyway, it's been a long time now, and if it drags on like this, I'm afraid of some accidents. Leah looked at Gawain, who was constantly provoking in the distance, and said with a sigh.
Leah had just arrived here at this time, and when she attacked Scotland with a pair of centaurs, it was unexpectedly smooth, and it only took a few dozen days to bring the whole of Scotland into the territory of Britain.
She then rested in Scotland for a few days, as the soldiers were tired from the long journey and the battle. Second, she also wanted to wait for Lancelot to hear from them.
In her opinion, Northern Ireland is about the same strength as Scotland, and with the forces of Lancelot and Gawain, she should be able to capture it quickly. But after Leah stayed in Scotland for more than ten days, she felt a little uneasy, after all, after so many days, there was no news from Northern Ireland, which was really a bit weird, so after a little explanation, she rushed over with extra personnel.
However, this back and forth, combined with the time spent in Scotland, had already passed a few months by the time Leah arrived with the people.
When they arrived, they saw what was happening, Northern Ireland was closed, and no matter how provocative it was, it was not to fight. And the loss of choosing to attack is too great, so it is a stalemate until now.
"King, are you going to storm it? After all, cavalry cannot charge in this kind of battlefield, and if they dismount, the losses will be immeasurable. Lancelot looked at Leah and said a little anxiously. He was afraid that Leah really couldn't wait and chose to attack.
"Rest assured, I am bound to Northern Ireland, but I am not so irrational. Seeing Lancelot's concern, Leah said with a slight smile.
For Northern Ireland, Leah is indeed a must, and that is because the geographical location of Northern Ireland is so special for the whole of Britain.
It can be seen from the geography of the entire British Isle that now Leah has included Wales, Scotland and other countries into her territory, which means that the current British Isle has been completely in the hands of Riah. In this way, she can take advantage of the natural danger of the English Channel to conquer European countries as much as possible and retreat to defend Britain, which makes her almost invincible.
As a result, the island of Ireland in the west has become Britain's greatest weakness. Therefore, when Leah decided to completely unify Britain, she sent Lancelot and Gawain to lead another team west to Northern Ireland. If these two places were in her own hands, Lea believed that by the time the Eastern Romans attacked, even if she didn't have the strength to match the other side, it would be enough to resist the invasion of the Eastern Romans.
And now the Eastern Rome has been completely contained by Persia, and it has been unable to get out of it in a short time. And France is now at a low ebb because of the 140,000 troops killed by Leah, and he will not be able to make any more big moves in ten years.
Leah is confident that with the memories and experience of her previous life, within ten years, she will be able to develop Britain and have the power to surpass the two empires today. And even the power to conquer Europe.
It was enough power to protect what she wanted to protect.
Seeing this, Lancelot breathed a sigh of relief, but after a while asked suspiciously, "So what should we do?"
"Tell them to stand down. Leah whispered.
Although he doubted Leah's words, since the king he was loyal to had already spoken, it was necessary to do so for so long, so after hearing Leah's words, Lancelot immediately drove his horse in the direction of Gawain's provocation.
"King, they won't fight anyway, what should they do?" It didn't take long for Gawain to come to Leah's side, and asked with a wry smile and a little anxious.
"I'll break down the gates, and when the gates of the other side are broken, you will rush in with men. Leah whispered something that shocked several people.
"How can this be, king? It's too dangerous, they're going to attack with bows and arrows, and even if you get under the gates, how are you going to break through the huge and hard gates?" Bedwell, who was her personal guard, said eagerly.
"Yes, king, you are too dangerous to do so. Lancelot and Gawain also said hurriedly.
"It's okay, have you forgotten its abilities?" said Lia, gently stroking the scabbard in her hand.
Hearing this, several people were silent, just silently looking at the gorgeous scabbard, and did not speak for a while.
They were all well aware of the power of the scabbard in Riya's hand, an absolute defense that would never be breached, and as long as they had it, their king would not be able to be injured.
However, even if they knew this, they were still inevitably worried that there would be accidents, after all, now Leah was not only their king, but also the king of the whole of Britain, the pillar of Britain, and they had to be careful.
Of course, this is not to say that they will not let Leah go to battle, after all, in this era, if the king does not rush to the front, then the knights behind him will not come forward, they just think that this is too risky.
"Okay, let's decide, it's too late, get ready, once I break down the other party's city gate, you will rush in with people. Seeing this, Lia bowed her hand and said.
Seeing this, the three of them looked at each other helplessly, and then said together: "Follow the order of my king." ”
Nodding, Leah stepped on a horse and galloped towards Belfast, Ireland's last fortress.
Not long after, they came to the front of the opponent's city wall, and when the officials of the other side saw someone riding towards them, they immediately shouted nervously: "There is an enemy attack, the archers are ready." ”
"What's the matter? Are they going to storm it?" the official's shout caught everyone's attention, and then a middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume came to the official's side and asked with a little horror.
"There was no king, but I saw a man rushing towards us on a war horse, but their large army did not move. It's weird. The official said suspiciously when he heard the man's words.
"Are you here to persuade you to surrender?" said the man, puzzled.
"What shall we do, King?" the officer asked the man.
"Hmph, kill her. The man snorted coldly when he heard this. Then he turned and disappeared into the walls.
Hearing this, the official commanded to the archers who had already prepared: "After waiting for the other party to enter the firing range, all the staff will shoot, and I will shoot that person into a hornet's nest in an instant." ”
"Yes. ”
