Chapter 99: Invitation to Battle
"Shoot them in the head, brothers!" The commander of the horizontal array gave the order.
"Buzz"! Countless crossbow strings trembled, and in the front and rear rows, more than two hundred short arrows of wood feathers suddenly shot out, and it took less than half a second to fly over a distance of ten steps, almost all of which shot on the heads of the straw men carried on the back of more than a dozen horses, shattering the heads of those straw men to pieces, and the straw flew sideways!
When the arrow was fired, the officer did not look at the result, and immediately ordered again: "Squat!" ”
As soon as he spoke, the soldiers squatted down skillfully and dodged behind the low wall in front of them.
More than a dozen scarecrow-laden horses in leather armor jumped over the low wall, and the drill was completed.
Charlie Andris stood at the side of the formation with his hands behind his back and watched, and nodded approvingly when he saw that the soldiers had completed the scheduled training program perfectly.
"Very good!"
The three Buchen and the generals who followed him also shouted excitedly, and after several days of harsh training, almost all the troops had already practiced this method of fighting that would end together.
In the past few days, the newly recruited 100,000 troops have not only trained every day under the harsh military laws comparable to the battlefield, but also taken turns to go to the city to guard, and personally fought with the puppet army under the command of the blood clan, and they couldn't help but complete the tactical training, and the quality of will, especially the hatred in their hearts, was further enhanced.
Seeing the corpses of those innocent people who had filled the moat, how could these soldiers not think of the fate of their families, and then after the appearance of a few captured traitor soldiers, saying how they were forced to eat human flesh by the blood clan, it made the soldiers indignant, and they couldn't wait to go out of the city to fight with the blood captives!
In such a collective environment, the original revenge was not very firm, but the hearts of the conformists also changed, and they became extremely hostile to the blood clan!
King Charles and his generals could naturally see this change, which gave them more confidence in victory.
And this situation is only left with admiration in the eyes of the ministers, and sometimes the ministers wonder if Charlie is a political commissar in his previous life, and this brainwashing and incitement is not too strong!
"Now that everything is ready, it's time to send a war letter to the blood captive!" King Charles said in high spirits.
The three of them and the generals all nodded excitedly, they had been waiting for this day for a long time.
King Charles called the secretary and wrote the war letter on the spot in front of them and the generals.
"Pick a traitor and take it with you!" King Charles sealed the war book and handed it to the secretary, and commanded.
The secretary respectfully accepted the letter, answered "yes", and hurriedly got on his horse and left.
"That's it!" King Charles glanced at his men and comrades with a smile on his face, "Let's use this war to end the myth of invincibility of blood captives!" ”
"Good !!" The three of them and the generals raised their arms and shouted.
……
An hour later, in the Blood Army camp outside Kevin.
"Crazy...... These domestic animals are simply insane! The Marquis of Nicklaus said with a trembling hand holding the letter of war with the ink still dry, and his face was full of shock. Originally, the siege of the city had not been smooth in the past few days, which had made him impatient and wanted to send the Blood Cloud Iron Cavalry to go up in person, but he didn't expect Charlie Andris to be so stupid, he didn't defend the city, but he wanted to go out of the city to fight him, which made him feel like pie in the sky.
"My lord, those domestic animals are so arrogant, since they are tired of life and want to die, let's fulfill them!" Victor stood up from the ranks of the Blood Clan Warlords and said first, a rare flush of excitement appeared on his pale face.
Other Bloodline Warlords also chimed in.
"Hmm!" The Marquis of Nicklaus nodded heavily, how could he let go of such an opportunity to complete the battle? It's definitely going to be accepted!
"Go and tell King Andris Charlie that I accept this decisive battle!" The Marquis of Nicklaus said in a deep voice to the man.
The man thought that he would die for this trip, but he didn't expect that there was still a way to live, and when he heard the words, he immediately kowtowed like garlic: "Understand, understand, the adults and the villains have remembered them, and the villain will tell His Majesty Charlie the truth!" ”
"Good!" The Marquis of Nicklaus smiled and commanded, "Take him out of the camp and don't be embarrassed in the slightest." ”
The blood clan guards on the left and right hurriedly bowed and received the order, and dragged the man out.
The Marquis of Nicklaus stood up from his position and took two steps excitedly, how could he not be excited when he saw that the war that was about to be fought was finally over? How can you not rejoice?
Victor immediately bowed with great insight and said, "My subordinates would like to congratulate you!" ”
Other generals also hurriedly followed suit and said in unison: "My subordinates would like to congratulate you!" ”
"Good, good!" The Marquis of Nicklaus couldn't close his smile together, he waved his hand and said: "You have also worked hard, as long as you can succeed in the battle this time, you will be able to destroy the army of Charlie of the domestic animals and conquer Kevin City, and allow you to wait for ten days to wash the city, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!" ”
The faces of the blood clan generals all showed a look of understanding, the so-called city washing, isn't it the meaning of slaughtering the city? But it's a bit inaccurate to put it on them, because they don't just want to kill, they want to eat......
……
At this time two days ago, the princess of Tasha also held a letter in her hand, but her expression was not as happy as that of the Marquis of Nicklaus, but full of solemnity.
If you do, it is equivalent to joining forces with infidels, which is no different from a blatant rebellion, and the center of the empire will definitely send troops to crusade against her, but shouldn't?
No matter how strong Charlie is, he can't beat the Blood Clan with his strength, right? Even if it's just one of the armies going south, if he doesn't win, then Charlie will definitely die, right?
In her heart, the princess of Tasha doesn't want Charlie to die, and even wants him to live and live well!
There is no other reason why the Tasya's daughter thinks so, it is because Charlie Andris is the only man she has a crush on in her eyes!
Well, maybe there is a king assassin Buchen, but Buchen killed her father and her brother after all, and besides, this thing is too young, and the Tasha princess doesn't like men younger than herself, because such men often have no style, don't know how to taste, and can't be happy even if they are barely combined.
So, do you want to rescue Charlie? In the palace of Pomai City, the border city of the Western Governor's Palace of the Brown Empire, the Tasha princess was caught in the middle of a battle between heaven and man.
The reason why she came to Pomai City was to fulfill her promise to Taji and come to contact King Charles to hunt down the assassin, although the princess of Taxia knew very well that this was in vain, if the assassin was in the kingdom of Andris at this time, eighty percent would have been captured and eaten by the blood clan, right? How could it be her turn to catch her?
However, after all, this is a promise she made in public, and she still has to do some superficial work, otherwise how can she convince the public?
It's just that her trip this time inadvertently played a role, at least King Charles's distress letter she received early in the morning.
"Uncle Dimahan and Uncle Samu, you are all my father's old subordinates, what do you think of this incident?" The princess of Tasha reclined on the soft couch, her tone did not fluctuate, and asked slowly, her lazy demeanor like that of an empress with supreme authority.
Di Mahan, the commander of the Western Governor's Palace, and Samuel, the head of the War Mage Regiment, glanced at each other, and said in unison, "Listen to Your Highness's orders. ”
These two withdrew their troops and returned to the country overnight after receiving the bad news of Prince McGee's assassination, but they had just entered the country, and they received the news that Prince Taji was seriously injured and died.
But...... Now that Prince McGee is dead, even his heirs are dead, it is worth thinking about whether they still have to be loyal to the McGee family, after all, the Mushiramo family is not the only prince, the supreme of their empire, the chief spokesman of the great lord, and the great spokesperson is also surnamed Mushiramo......
In fact, had it not been for the haste of the Tasha princesses, who had stabilized them, and pledged to assist Prince Taji's youngest son in the succession to the princely title, the two would have marched on Durant under the banner of quelling the rebellion.
When the princess of Tasha saw them kicking the ball back, she scolded the two old foxes in her heart, but a friendly smile appeared on her face: "I want to save Charlie Andris, what do the two uncles think?" ”
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
The two old foxes immediately jumped up from their chairs as if they had stepped on nails.
The other brown-clothed nobles who accompanied the Taxia princess to the north also exhorted one after another, looking at the bitter appearance, as if they had saved King Charles, they would immediately be beaten into the Red Lotus Hell.
"Is that so?" Looking at the anxious brown-clothed nobles with red faces, the Tasha princess smiled more and more.
It's just that for some reason, the brown-clothed nobles, including Di Mahan and Samu, all felt that this smile was a little cold, as if they were going to kill someone...... Knife!
