Chapter 205: The Army Descends on the City!
readx;? Late at night, and although the weather has begun to warm up, the nights in Conway are still as cold as winter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The guards on duty stood on the walls, and the only thing they could do but curse the damn weather was to rub their hands together to regain some sensation in the frozen joints.
He was just about to lean against the wall and close his eyes for a while, but the light of the fire in the distance made him reopen his eyes that he had just closed, and the expression on his face was like a ghost!
What is that?
A spirit, the guards lying on the city wall and looking carefully into the distance.
Under the dark night sky, countless torches are like stars!
And the way they're going is Conway!
Before his brain could react, an exclamation came from the city wall in the next moment!
"Enemy attack!"
Pierce the silent night sky!
A dull bell rang in the tower, and all those who were still asleep were awakened at this moment!
The city guard officer in charge of the city defense of Conway was woken up by the sudden sound of the bell, and the moment before he got out of bed, his mouth was still mumbled, what!
For many years, the bell on the tower of Conway has never rang.
The wife lying beside him opened her eyes in a daze, "Louie, where are you going?"
At this time, the city defense officer had already put on his pants, held the clothes in his hands, and kissed his wife's forehead, Louis whispered, "Stay at home, don't go out until I return." ”
As the city guard of Conway, Louis was not one of those nobles who had never held the hilt of a sword.
From an ordinary civilian, relying on military exploits, he gained today's status.
After a long time on the battlefield, he knew very well how fatal a surprise attack at night would be to Conway, which was now empty of force!
Not even wearing a sock on one foot, Louis completely ignored the ban on horseback riding in the city, and galloped wild!
He had also heard of what had happened this morning, and Conway was truly uncommanded, Master Draco had fled, and little Leverin had just returned.
If it was a surprise attack by the Robetans, it would definitely be a fierce battle tonight!
Even if Louie's reaction was fast enough, when he walked up to the western wall, what he saw made him gasp!
The dense flames are endless!
I was shocked in my heart!
The pressure they put on the Robetan on the front line had never diminished, but how did they come up with such a large army to attack Conway at night!
This completely turned his perception on its head.
At least 30,000 people!
"Where's Jeff, let him come to me!"
Grabbing a passing soldier, Louis hissed and yelled, "Check your arrows!
At this time, Theodore was still asleep, and the young woman lying in the crook of his arm looked out suspiciously, trying to wake up the drunk Theodore, but after several efforts, Theodore always slept like a dead pig, without the slightest sign of awakening.
And the butler rushed into the room at this moment, and even ignored the screams of the naked woman, grabbed the baron's shoulder, and the butler shouted, "Lord Theodore!
Having served this master for more than ten years, Theodore's troubled butler is naturally extremely clear.
Let the maid, who had already prepared the water, bring in the basin, and the butler took it, and without the slightest hesitation, poured it directly on Theodore's face.
When he was sleeping soundly, he was poured a basin of cold water on his head, and Theodore woke up from his dream with a scream, and when he saw that it was his butler, he angrily scolded, "Damn it! What do you want to do?"
But the butler's face remained unchanged, and he bowed his head slightly, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "Lord Theodore, the alarm bell of the tower rang just now. ”
swallowed back the words that were about to curse, even if Theodore had just woken up, the look in his eyes was extremely shocked!
But after the shock, Theodore's face sank, "When?"
"Just now. ”
"I see, prepare my clothes and carriage, and inform the other nobles that I am going outside. ”
The butler lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I have already sent someone to rule over several other adults. ”
He took the towel from the maid and dried Theodore's water.
Theodore stood on the ground and stretched out his hands to let the maid and the butler change his clothes, and I have to say that the old butler who had been with him for more than ten years knew him.
Of course, if he dares to splash himself with water, he is probably able to do it.
Could it be that the Robetan people have called?
Theodore's brow furrowed, but now Conway's entire force was enough to gather eight thousand men.
Going out and getting into the carriage, although there was no warning beforehand, Theodore still had to go and see, if there was any hope of victory, it was also a good choice to consolidate his prestige in the army and among the people.
At this time, Meen was walking down the streets of Conway, and behind him were Samier and Byron.
If I guessed correctly, it should be the Bolan people who have arrived.
Byron walked behind with a little weakness, "Your Excellency, are we really going to let them into the city?"
This is Conway, after all, and if the Bolan army is really allowed to drive in, there will be no turning back.
However, Meen is sure that the people of Berland will not disappoint him, Nicole Beran, that woman is no less intelligent than his father.
With so much pressure on Lydney's west front, Minn had reason to believe she wouldn't drag Lydney into the war again for the sake of a Conway.
"Don't worry, Byron, everything will go according to plan. ”
When a few people arrived at the city gate, Louis was directing the soldiers on the city wall to prepare for defense.
Having a soldier call Louis down from the city walls, the city guard was furious because someone was disturbing him at such an urgent moment.
It was only when he came down from the city wall with a black face and saw the people waiting for him that Louis forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said lukewarmly, "Your Excellency the Pope, Your Excellency Le Verin, is there anything wrong with the two of you?"
As the city guard of Conway, especially in wartime, he is only responsible for the city, and he can not buy anyone's accounts except the real city lord.
Byron hesitated for a moment and said, "Open the gates, we will go out of the city." ”
It's as if I've heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, my God, don't these people have a brain? Now that there is a war outside the city, these people are going out of the city?
This kind of joking request, if it were an ordinary person, Louis would have kicked him a long time ago.
His face was gloomy, "Your Excellency Levelin, this kind of joke is not funny at all, if you have nothing else to do, I will go back to the city wall to prepare for this war." ”
With that, Louis turned around and left.
But Mien's voice reached his ears and stopped him in his tracks.
"If you want to see blood and death, you can choose to prevent us from leaving the city. ”
Louis didn't understand what Mien meant, and turned his head, "I'm sorry, what did you mean, Pope? ”
Without explaining, Meen smiled, "Open the gates and let us out, your soldiers don't need to shed blood for this war." ”
Before Louis could answer Meen, however, a voice familiar to Meen interjected.
"Open the gates, Pope, does the army outside the city have anything to do with you?" )
