September 1733 in the solar calendar?? Portnas borders with Ucepold

Ucepold, the land of dragons, has a strong army of dragon knights, and the two countries bordering it have set up complete defenses. Wernell built towering border walls and erected heavy ballistas, while Portnus turned on the Wizard all year round, an enchantment that kept all creatures out of the way without authorization.

Due to the dragons' attack, the borders of Yunnell have been reduced to nothing, there are no more humans there, and the dragons have occupied the area. Only the frontier of Portnath is still functioning, and now that the dragons have invaded Ucepold, the significance of this border has become even more critical.

"Shoot, the archers shoot at will, no dragon knight can be let in!" Duke Owen, the commander-in-chief of the Portnus border, the man with the two mustaches was inspecting the battle on the border line at this time. He was wearing a gorgeous aristocratic dress, his legs were crossed with pleasure, and he was holding a wine glass in his hand, and the flying dragons in the sky fell down one after another under his mouthful of drink, "Don't worry, birds, I have arranged all the garrison troops on the border, don't even think of any of you coming in~" Duke Owen smiled confidently.

"The magic guide has also aimed and shot at me, to prevent any Ucepolds from entering, this is an order from the king himself, and everyone must not be lazy!" Duke Owen's lieutenant stood beside him at this time, urging the soldiers to fight.

"Robert, how long has it been since we've been in contact with Ucepold?" Duke Owen asked his lieutenant with a squint as he looked at the brilliant sky.

"It's been more than twenty years, Lord Duke. The adjutant stood straight, he was wearing armor and ready to enter the battle, "You and I have never been at war since we came here. ”

"Yes, yes, Robert. The Duke smiled proudly, "When I received the oath of war, I was thinking about a big fight." I didn't expect it to be like this, what a dragon knight, but that's just the extent. When he said this, he showed a look of disdain, "Now like this, I don't even have military achievements." ”

"That's because the dragons' attacks have left them in a panic. "The adjutant had a very clear mind, if it was a normal dragoon, it would not have been possible to be defeated so easily.

"His Majesty the King is still wise and powerful, what a powerful dragon knight, hum. Putting down the wine glass, Duke Owen stood up, "I'll go back and rest first, you stay here and continue to command." Remember, you must not let anyone in. ”

"Yes, Lord Duke. The adjutant bowed his head respectfully.

Just as Owen turned, a soldier ran towards him, "Lord Duke, I have something to report." ”

"What's the matter?" the Duke raised his eyebrows.

"Lord Duke, a group of Uchepod civilians have arrived at our junction. What should we do?"

"What should I do?" the Duke frowned, he raised his hand and slapped the soldier in the face without hesitation, "Aren't you clear about His Majesty's orders?

"But... They're just civilians—" The soldier clasped his hands, his expression flustered.

"What the..."

"I'll take care of it, Lord Duke. Robert walked over and took Owen's hand.

Glancing at his adjutant, Owen turned white

Eyes "Okay, I'll leave it to you, I'll go first." The Duke could see that he trusted Robert, and he threw his hand behind him and walked in the direction of his carriage.

"Lord Robert—" The soldier looked aggrieved, and his tone was tearful.

"Haven't you been so kind as you have been to take their money?" Robert whispered into the soldier's ear.

"Ahh This..."The soldier quickly lowered his head, "I'm sorry, that's what they forced into me... I just think these people are pathetic..."

"Give me the money. "It's a bribe, it's very serious in terms of the circumstances, but Robert doesn't look angry, he just stretches out his hand to the soldier.

When the bribery was discovered, naturally there was nothing to say, and the soldier obediently handed over the money.

"The king's order is absolute, such money must not be collected in the future, if it is known by others, you will die, understand?" After taking the money, Robert's expression was still nervous, he looked around, and no one said, "Take me to meet those people first." ”

"Yes, Lord Robert. The soldier did not dare to look up, turned and walked forward.

Their current location is the border wall, where the controllers and archers of the magic guide are located, and the edge of the real barrier is still a hundred meters away, and there will be infantry patrolling back and forth to ensure absolute safety. The two of them walked quickly, and in a short time they were on the edge, where dozens of unkempt Ucepods stood outside. As soon as they saw someone coming, they all fell on the barrier.

"Who gave him the money?" said Robert, walking to the edge of the barrier and pulling out the money bag that the soldier had just handed him.

"It's all the gold we all put together. An old man standing at the front replied, "Sir, this is all the property that we have brought out, I only hope you will let us in, we will never expose ourselves, we will hide." ”

"I'm sorry, I can't let you in. Robert politely handed the bag to the old man, "This is an order from King Philus himself, and no one has the right to make a claim and let you in." As he said this, he glanced down at the soldier beside him.

"Please," the old man did not take the bag of gold, but knelt down, "Please, let us go back now and let us die, sir!"

"I'm sorry. Robert was unmoved, he threw the money bag directly over, "You can't stay here now, close to the border, we need to send people to guard, this is a waste of manpower, so please leave." ”

"Sir!sir!!" The crowd knelt down, they had nothing more than hope that Robert would let him in.

"I warned you. The Uchepods will not be granted permission to enter. Robert said, drawing his saber, "Leave, or die." He put the accent on the dead word.

The crowd did not move, they still knelt down, and the words of pleading continued, for there was no way back for them, and this was the only hope of survival.

"Since you have chosen to die. With a flick of his backhand, the sword slashed through the back of the old man's erect neck, causing his blood to spurt out.

The crowd was frightened by this scene, and several women even fainted, and even the soldiers next to them were surprised, Lord Robert was usually kind and kind to everyone

It's also good, I didn't expect him to hesitate at this moment, and the whole person is ruthlessly like a machine.

"Leave, or you'll be next. Shaking the blood from his sword, Robert pointed the tip of his sword at the crowd again.

"Please leave, there's no chance here. The soldier next to him also persuaded the crowd.

Looking at the corpse of the old man in front of them, the crowd did retreat, it was a moment to live longer, even if they would be swallowed by the dragon's breath later, they didn't want to die here now.

Watching the crowd drift away from the barrier in a lonely way, Robert turned his gaze to the soldiers beside him, "Cut off your little finger, and I won't tell Duke Owen about it." ”

"Lord Robert!" The soldier's eyes widened, apparently he was frightened by the man's words.

"Here, cut!" Robert handed over the sword with a look of course, "You have to have a long memory, what to do and what not to do, didn't you learn it when you first trained, or did you think of yourself as a priest after too long of peace?"

The soldier didn't dare to take the sword, "Lord Robert, I'll definitely remember, please..." he knelt down and begged for forgiveness from the man in front of him.

"I'm going to cut two. The choice is yours. "The man's mind has not changed in the slightest. His face was as cold as a stone.

Seeing the man's determined eyes at this time, the soldier gave in, and he took the sword tremblingly, and then aimed it at his left hand.

"No, if you exert too much force in this position, it's not a finger. Robert pulled the soldier's hand in front of him and pressed it to the ground, "Cut, come." He set up the standard pose for the soldiers.

"Yes—" The soldier's voice trembled violently as he aimed the blade at his left little finger.

"It's just a moment, it's not that hard. The man patted him on the shoulder, "Be brave, it just hurts." His tone became kind.

The soldier finally looked at Robert's face, although the expression of that face softened, but there was still no room for bargaining, "Ahh

"It's not broken yet. Robert saw that the soldier stopped at the first sign of pain, so he snatched his sword and completed the rest of the steps for him, and one of his little fingers was cut off completely.

"Ahhhhh The soldier clutched his hands and screamed, and he rolled on the ground in pain.

"You'll know it's for your good, a little finger is better than no head. Picking up the little finger, Robert helped the soldier up again, "Let's go, I'll take you to the medical squad to bandage." ”

"Yes, thank you, sir. The feeling of pain made the soldier's voice seem a little weak at this time: "I will definitely not be next time." He also promised that he would never let any strangers into the barrier in the future.

"I believe in you. Rob nodded, and the man smiled, facing someone who was willing to bear the mistake, he wouldn't be too harsh "If someone else has done something similar, remind him with your hand, remember?"

"Remembered. The soldier closed his eyes and nodded vigorously.

"That's good. Holding the soldier sideways, Robert walked towards the barrier, "If you feel pain, close your eyes and rest, and I'll take you there." ”
