Section 102 The end of the war

That night, on the night of September 20th, Doru secretly sneaked back to the city of Cowinde in a small boat from the waterways of the city of Covinde, and with the help of the connections arranged in the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, Doru rushed to the castle to meet the newly enthroned lord of the city of Covinde, Viscount Baran Marne.

What Keith didn't know was that the current Viscount Baran Marne trusted Doru very much, at least in the past.

Even Balaam was able to inherit the current title because he had conspired with Doru to frame his brother, so that his brother was exiled by his father.

This Viscount Baran Marne can be said to be a typical man of great ambition and talent, but fortunately, he is very self-aware and likes to ask his subordinates for opinions on many things, but it is also because of this that people like Doru gain power.

So, when Viscount Balan heard that Doru had returned to the city and was coming to see him, he did not let the guards stop him, although he maintained due suspicion.

After Doru met Viscount Balan, according to the story he had made up at the beginning, he quickly portrayed himself as a hero who desperately protected Viscount Marne, and then swore to break through, and then sacrificed his two sons, but also failed to save Viscount Marne, and finally had to return to Covinde City in disguise.

With Doru's shrewdness and mastery of human sophistication, although his story may not be believed by a few people, the current Viscount Baran Marne is the most helpless, and Doru is still the person he knew and trusted most before, so his suspicion is naturally much lower.

In addition, Doru was able to return to Covinde City at this juncture, which moved Viscount Balan even more, and Viscount Balan even immediately told Doru that as long as he repelled Viscount Keys's troops this time, he would be canonized as the captain of the Knight Guard immediately.

As for why he didn't canonize now, Balaam wasn't stupid enough yet.

When Doru heard Balan's promise, he could only smile silently in his heart, he did everything possible to offer advice to Balan, and even risked framing the first-order heir of the Corwin Leader at that time, Balan's brother, wasn't it just so that one day he could wait for Balan to ascend the throne, reward him with a piece of land, and make him a real nobleman?

But now, Doru was not happy, but on the surface Doru was very happy, and seized the opportunity to recite the oath again.

"Lord Viscount, as soon as I returned to the city, I heard that Sir Myron had a separate meeting with the enemy Viscount Keith yesterday, and that his son was tied up under the gallows by the enemy!"

Doru's face was worried.

When Balaam heard this, he casually flicked his sleeves and asked, "Oh? Who did you listen to?"

"Didn't I ask the steward as soon as I got home how the war was going? and he told me about it, and now the matter is spreading everywhere, and it must have come from the garrison!" Doru replied naturally, and then he asked, "Why?

Balan gave Doru a serious look, and then said, "There is such a thing, but they didn't meet alone, Myron is smart, he is going with a knight I have just canonized, and I know all about their conversation!"

Balaam smiled, not taking the matter to heart.

"Step, step!"

It was at this time that a faint sound of footsteps came, and in this empty hall, such footsteps were obvious, and the two looked towards the door of the hall, but a soldier ran towards them with a secret letter in his hand.

Balan took the secret letter and looked at it, and when he read it, his face was a little strange, and Doru asked very casually, "Is it anything urgent?"

"The enemy is talking to Ser Myron again today!" said Balan, handing the secret letter to Doru.

Doru deliberately frowned and thought for a long time, and then said: "Lord Viscount, although Sir Myron is a real knight, if the enemy invites him every day, after a long time, I am afraid that there will be accidents!"

Balan nodded: "The enemy also seized on Myron's weakness, they were very formal invitations twice, with Myron's old-fashioned and old-fashioned, how could he refuse?"

Doru thought for a moment and said, "Let's take a look again, if the enemy army still uses this method tomorrow, Lord Viscount, you should recall Sir Myron and ask directly!"

Doru said this very slowly, and he would look at Balan's face without saying a few words, and only continue to say it if he was sure that there was nothing abnormal.

Balan heard Doru's suggestion, thought about it carefully and nodded: "It's okay, with Sir Myron's character, he must not have a good rest, we can prepare the most sumptuous food in the castle, you have also suffered a lot during this time, come together then!"

"Yes, Viscount!" Doru nodded.

Balan's tone changed and he asked, "Doru, do you think we can hold it this time?"

Doru was stunned, but he saluted but did not answer the question.

Balan didn't ask any more, he continued: "Myron assured me that he would definitely be able to defend it, and he said that when the soldiers were dead, he would mobilize ordinary citizens to defend the city, and if it really came to that point, I was afraid that even if the city was defended, the city of Covinde would be ruined!"

When Doru heard Balan say this, he was startled, and a chill spread all over his body, this is to let the whole city be buried for them! He couldn't help but think in his heart: This Myron is afraid that he is crazy, in order to save his old face, he actually wants to recruit ordinary citizens, what kind of knightly honor is he like this?

"There are at least 100,000 citizens in the city, if you bet on it, maybe it really works!" Doru's eyes rolled, just now, he decided to do what Keith said, he didn't know why he suddenly had such a thought, that feeling, like the feeling of being suddenly opened by a god in myths and legends.

At this point, Balan was not interested in talking any further, so he sent Doru away.

On the morning of the 21st, under the city of Cowind, as in the previous two days, the battle was still fierce, but when the battle reached noon, the siege troops sent another messenger to the city of Cowinde to invite Sir Myron, and Sir Myron naturally did not have stage fright.

That night, Sir Myron was summoned back to the castle by his lord, Viscount Balan.

At about eleven o'clock that night, several of Sir Myron's main lieutenants on the city wall were quietly assassinated on their own territory.

Half an hour later, the gates of Covinde, which had been heavily guarded, were suddenly opened, and the drawbridge slowly fell to the sound of "squeak, squeak!"

When the drawbridge fell, in a place where the fire could not shine in the distance, a large force of cavalry suddenly rushed out, and the soldiers defending the city elsewhere on the city wall were shocked in their hearts, and the observation post hurriedly blew the magic whistle they carried.

On the night of September 21, 1211 in the continental calendar, the siege of Covind City was breached, and the current lord Baran Marne committed suicide with his sword.

After the capture of Covinde, Keith executed all members of the House of Marne, but showed mercy to the other nobles by not executing them, but only allowing them to leave Covinde's territory within three days.

At this point, there was a scuffle between several families in the southwestern region of the southern border of the human kingdom, and it was officially over, and the rigorous bachelor was inquiring about the details of this war through various channels and recording this war.
