Chapter 263: A Knight in the Port of Benghazi

Hayreddin eventually sent an emissary to the port of Benghazi, and his son Hassan was to take Khareddin's warrant with him to respond to the request made by Bursa on behalf of Sultan Shrem.

After bidding farewell to Hayreddin, Bursa turned eastward to the port of Tripoli.

She wants to get in touch with Wu Xin.

However, by the time she arrived at the port of Tripoli, Wu Xin had been out of town for several days.

This kind of information that cannot be kept secret by the dispatch of a large army, Bulsha can easily obtain, and the direction of the expedition is the same.

But other intelligence, such as the number of troops dispatched and the strong ones, is not known.

Bulsa wandered around the city, afraid to approach the large lighthouse, but unexpectedly spotted a newly built Darksun Church.

Although Wu Xin went out on the expedition to extract all the materials that could be pumped, the progress of Father Erlan slowed down a little.

However, Wu Xin went to take away most of the pack beasts, and the follow-up materials could no longer be delivered, so Father Erlan could still continue this work.

Although the war was urgent, Father Erlan relied on his administrative power to plan a rather large foundation, and Bursa was overjoyed.

Bursa then continued eastward in pursuit of Wu Xin.

She carries all sorts of coins and large checks, can buy all kinds of camels, hire good guides, and is extremely energetic.

The speed of Wu Xin's troops could not be compared with such a small team.

Eventually, in a small oasis not far from the port of Benghazi, Bursa found Wu Xin's campsite.

As close to Haireddin, she still didn't try to see her at all, but rushed directly to Wu Xin's camp.

For the last time she was captured by Wu Xin, Bursha was not convinced, in her opinion, her physical condition was not good at that time, and Ciric's divine power had not been fully absorbed.

And as Meredi's electorate power was absorbed by her. Part of her emotions was transmitted to Bursha, and Wu Xin's hatred for killing Meredi's lover and son was too deep, although it was only a part, it was still a small part, which still made Bursha uncomfortable.

This time she was determined to save face and calm her emotions by the way.

Of course, it's not the same as trying to kill Hayreddin. Although her malice towards Wu Xin was great, she didn't want Wu Xin to die.

The entire southern shore of the Mediterranean Sea is the only one that is still resolutely resisting the Star and Moon Sect, and although he has a little problem with his heels, he has not made any public disrespect to the Roman Church.

No matter how great the personal feud is, Bursa does not dare to directly interfere with Ciric's interests.

Even Meredi found a way for the French Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire to conspire, so she dared to hurt people with secret arrows and wanted to murder Wu Xin.

Bulsha didn't intend to hurt Wu Xin anyway, but in order to gain the initiative in the negotiations, she still had to put the knife on Wu Xin's neck first.

But she was overthinking. This time, she was even worse than against Shanghai Reading.

She had just seen Wu Xin's big tent, and after observing it for less than half a minute, she suddenly felt that the situation was wrong, but the next moment she saw a withered skull.

Bursha immediately knew in her heart that it was not good, her intelligence was quite accurate, and she knew that Wu Xin's expedition had always been to let Sazastan take care of her family, but she didn't expect Wu Xin to know that this time the enemy was strong. Bring all the cards you can play.

"Shut up!" She let out a loud shout and immediately forbade Sazastan from chanting and casting spells.

However, the demigod lich had no intention of using magic in the first place. Although Sazastan also processed some spell casting materials in addition to making nutrients, and some fish that could be regarded as Warcraft were good raw materials, but it was not so wasteful.

As soon as Meredi finished speaking, she felt a violent sucking sensation coming from the top of her head, as if she was going to make a hole in her skull and drain her brain from it.

Bulsha's body. Part of it was Meredi's soul, and part of it was the original Star and Moon Cicada, and the process of combining the two compartments confused her so much that she couldn't accurately recognize herself.

Now she is a "core" level strength, and has her own unique advantages over spellcasters of the same level. There is a certain chance of winning against the "town country".

But she shouldn't have gone to face the two strongest in the "Zhenguo" in a row.

Rationally speaking, the current Bulsha will is extremely strong, far more than most of the fighters, if she resists hard, there is at least a seventy or eighty percent chance that she can withstand this move.

But this is too dangerous a gamble after all.

"Ciric!"

Bulsha shouted desperately, using the true name of the god to stimulate her own resistance, and withstood the trick of "capturing the soul".

While this would expose some of her roots, it would be much better than being sucked away by Sazastan.

"Damn, you pay me for my spell casting materials!" Sazastan thought with great grief and indignation that the ability to "capture souls" was very powerful and not often available, and he was finally able to use "capture souls" once, and he was counting on this soul to be used as a spellcasting material, "You low-level life, it is an honor for you to be my casting material!" Why don't you die honestly?! ”

Sazastan is very embarrassed that someone will not die honestly.

The demigod lich was agitated, and he leaped into the air, looking ready to unleash his next attack.

Sazastan has so many spell slots that he always prepares all sorts of magic, some exempt from movement, some from chanting.

His silent magic was also enough to tear Burtha to shreds.

"Don't kill her, didn't she spend tens of thousands of thalers to ransom her last time, and those who catch her alive can get a lot more ransom!" Fortunately, Wu Xin's voice sounded in time.

"She can still redeem herself, she has no money, right?" Sazastan was a little skeptical, but he didn't continue to attack Bursha.

Kessler then rushed out with Galileigh, and she eventually fell to the ground.

Bulsha was quickly tied up and dragged in front of Wu Xin.

Wu Xin felt that Bursha should not be his enemy for the time being, but the necessary defensive measures were still needed.

"Your Highness Sazastan, no wonder they all say that you are the first person under the True Chosen Pope, but after all, he is a God-given power, and you come entirely from yourself." At this point, Bursa also had to admit that she was far behind, "If Hayreddin is against you, on land." It's not easy to escape. ”

She was telling the truth, Sazastan was stronger than Hayreddin, at least on land.

"Hmph, the real pope? Does he dare to fight me alone? "Sazastan is really not afraid of heads-up, he tries to pretend to be very calm, but he really can't help it." That big shark is no match for me, hahaha, rightfully so. ”

Bultha's honest sycophancy is too comfortable for him, although now Bulsha has only inherited the limited power of Meredi, and is not considered a voter of Shirek, but the ability to talk to people and talk nonsense is enough.

"I still have something to do, you squeeze more money." Sazastan finished speaking and left. But Bursa obviously didn't dare to look for trouble anymore.

Wu Xin looked at Bursha and asked, "Have you seen Hayreddin lately?" ”

"Yes, I'm here to curry favor with him, on behalf of my master, Sultan Hurem." In fact, we know that Bursha is extremely arrogant towards Hayreddin, "He is a key supporter. ”

Although the Roman Church and the Habsburgs were at odds with each other, the Barbary pirates spared no effort in the plundering of the Roman Church, and as a spearhead of Shirek's invasion of the Ottoman Empire and the Monastery, she certainly had to try to disrupt the enemy's strategy.

Wu Xin's daring to come to the rescue of Benghazi Port has already saved her a lot of trouble. She has also put on a brilliant performance to ensure that Hyreddin does not allow her men to storm Benghazi with all their might, but to relieve the siege of Benghazi. It's still not that easy.

"Ah, Sultan Xurem sabotaged his plan to attack the Safavid Persian Empire, but he also paid a great price? Tell me, are some of the big guys fed up with her? Wu Xin guessed accurately, the conspiracy can have no evidence, but the real powerful person. Without telling you the evidence, they will follow the direction of interests, judge who is the black hand, and can indeed find the right answer, "It's the Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasha." Or did the chief preacher Muhammad openly support the Elder Prince? ”

"The succession of the Ottoman Empire is not something you can participate in at all, so take care of your own life." Bursa yelled, "I'm here to save your life!" ”

Of course, Bulsha wants to get some benefits from Wu Xin by the way, at least to get some favors.

Wu Xin ignored her and just waited for her to continue.

Bultha didn't have time to play psychological warfare, so she had to continue: "If I hadn't worked hard to get all the way from Istanbul, you would probably have crashed to death outside the port of Benghazi, and with such a few people, you dare to want to relieve the siege of Benghazi?" ”

"Don't think you're great if you've absorbed a piece of the plane, you're still the smallest player in this field." At the same time, Bursa was hiding her true position, she didn't know that Wu Xin already knew her actual position, "I'm really embarrassed if I didn't come to save you, although I like you very much, but I can't ignore my country, if it weren't for Khareddin's refusal to clearly support my master, Sultan Xurem and her son, I can really only watch you die." ”

"Oh? How so? Wu Xin asked with a smile, "I think I have a lot of troops." ”

"Hmph, do you think there are only three or four thousand Ottoman soldiers surrounding the port of Benghazi?" It is an exaggeration for Bulsa to say that she is here to save Wu Xin, but it is absolutely correct to say that she is here to help Wu Xin, "With your more than a thousand tired and hungry scum troops, you can be defeated by launching a surprise attack?" Actually, can you launch a raid? ”

"Of course I can." In order to be able to reach the port of Benghazi in a month's time, Wu Xin traveled all the way, and hundreds of horses and camels had already died, so he could only give it a go.

Moreover, the information provided by the Marquis of Bazin is roughly the figure that Bursa said, and there are currently less than 500 officers and soldiers of the Knights Hospitaller in Benghazi Castle, while the Ottoman soldiers surrounding them are about 3,000.

"Even if it is tens of thousands of troops, it is possible to be defeated by troops far smaller than themselves under a surprise attack." Wu Xin would not admit that his intelligence was inadequate, "Especially this kind of army that has been besieging a fortified castle for a long time, with low morale and epidemic disease, even the guards in the city may be able to repel them through a surprise attack." ”

"Hehe, with your more than a thousand rabble, you want to break the new army of two thousand Yeniseri?" Bursha's words made Wu Xin's eyelids jump, "The Ottoman army is only four thousand, but half of them are the new Janisseri, and in the past few months, they have been eating and drinking, and there are so many spell casting materials that can make your legs weak. ”

The situation that Wu Xin said was very likely, but Bursa also had a point.

"Well, I'm very touched that you've come all the way like this, how do you want to help me, and how can I repay you?" Wu Xin really needs Bulsha, so he doesn't plan to give the other party benefits, more importantly, he needs to make the other party believe that he believes in her, "Of course, the most important thing is that you have to tell me why you want to help me." ”

Wu Xin knew the reason himself, but he didn't intend to expose Bursha's position to too many subordinates, Sazastan was one of the few people who knew her position, but the demigod lich behaved very well and protected Bursha perfectly.

"My master has his own arrangements, if I want to harm you, send your information directly to the besieging troops in Benghazi, you will die." This action of Bursa did show a lot of goodwill, if the besieging troops of Benghazi were vigilant, Wu Xin would be finished, "As for the return I want, I will remember a favor first, and naturally I want you to return it." ”

…………

Before Villefort came to the port of Benghazi, he knew it was a dead man's errand.

He couldn't help himself, and he couldn't help but come.

The Spanish fleet, while sending people over, also brought some supplies, which eased the situation a little.

But as the Spanish fleet disappeared from the surface of the sea again, fear and despair quickly re-enveloped the port of Benghazi.

The new reinforcements are okay, those who have been surrounded for months are really not good.

"I'm a grass mud horse, a grass mud horse! I don't want to die, I don't want to die. ”

"Save me, save me, I'm willing to take refuge in the Lord of the Stars and Moon.........."

"Praise the Lord of the Stars and Moon, praise the Lord of the Stars and Moon, I have descended, I have descended!"

In the cold cold night, the terrible roar made the entire Benghazi castle feel terrified.

Such screams were a regular occurrence in the first month of the siege, but never caused so much consternation.

Because the soldier who dared to shout would be subdued in less than thirty seconds, and then whipped so hard that he couldn't shout at all.

But today, the screaming has been going on for more than five minutes.

Because it wasn't some soldier who had a nervous breakdown, but a hospitaller.

This young man from Paris came from a poor background, but he was extremely talented, and with little nourishment, he reached the rank of "middle stalw" and soon became a full-fledged knight after joining the Knights Hospitaller.

After getting a stable supply of nutrients, he is now the peak "backbone" and "elite" potential figures.

He had the skill to fight and the fighting spirit that the knights of noble birth did not have, and he also supported and participated in night raids in the days after the siege began.

Although he did not achieve a big victory, he actually harassed the enemy and returned alive.

But now, he's broken.

During this time, many of the nutrients in the warehouse were reprocessed into food, and his supply of nutrients was almost gone.

The Benghazi castle had springs and the defenders stockpiled large quantities of wine, which was a great way to reduce the disease.

But most of these supplies have been depleted.

This knight was also the most conscientious of the people, and although he never had the opportunity to attack at night again, he was always upright and strict in patrolling the city walls every day, and he punished any soldier who was lazy and slippery.

It was his job to whip soldiers who had a nervous breakdown and execute soldiers who wanted to open the city.

But this is the kind of person who, while inspecting the city walls, suddenly knelt down, cried like a child, and then tried to jump off the walls to surrender.

The walls of the port of Benghazi are six meters high, and the perimeter is a circle of trenches without water, and the wooden spurs and fallen piles inside have been almost destroyed in the offensive and defensive battles some time ago.

It was now filled with feces and urine, but the knight jumped straight down in heavy armor and broke his leg.

He was either premeditated to escape, or simply crushed by the pressure.

But he shouted and screamed in the trenches, and sooner or later the Ottomans would come and answer him.

The castle guards couldn't let him call him down. (To be continued.) )
