Chapter 160: Siege

"Hahaha~, those fools of the Hou Party finally launched a rebellion, it really didn't waste my arrangements during this time!" "Archduke William, who had already returned to the south, laughed proudly after receiving a magical summons from the imperial capital. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After pacing back and forth for a few steps, Archduke William raised his head and ordered: "Kenny, send a signal to order the legions lurking around the city of Rien to start attacking, and take the city of Rien today!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Kenny took the order and walked quickly out of Archduke William's study. This little entourage, who had been following Archduke Wagner, continued to serve Archduke Wilhelm after Wagner's capture.

Not long after Archduke William's order was issued, the magicians of the Kingdom of Lorraine also received news that the southern rebels were about to attack the city of Rien. The mage regiment of the Kingdom of Lorraine who had returned from fighting on the northwestern front set out again, but this time the target was their own allies, and Archduke William never dreamed that his long-trusted ally would stab him hard at such a time.

After the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch, the Kingdom of Lorraine thinks that it is the ultimate beneficiary, but it does not expect that this is just the opening prelude to a huge conspiracy. The queen would not have thought that her unwilling death struggle would affect the nerves of the entire Varu Empire, and also affected the fate of many surrounding countries and forces.

"Spirits dancing in the flames, answer my call, unleash your vitality and ignite the flames that burn everything!" As the magic spell was chanted, a huge fireball condensed on Raymond's wand, and Leo could feel the billowing heat even if he didn't look back.

"Leo, Cahill, get out of the way!" As soon as Raymond spoke, Leo and Cahill hurriedly dodged left and right, the power of the fireball had been seen by both of them.

There were too many palace guards in front of Raymond, even if they saw the fireball flying towards it, they couldn't avoid it at all, and they heard a bang, and a large blank space appeared in the crowd in front of Raymond. The scorching air flew in all directions with stumps and severed arms, and a thick stench of burning protein wafted from the front of the dormitory.

"Hurry up and rush into the dormitory!" Seeing this opportunity, Prince Grantham hurriedly beckoned Cardinal Owen behind him and strode up the steps of the dormitory.

The palace guards panicked a little after the fireball exploded, but under the organization of several cronies led by Andrews, they quickly regained their reaction, and once again surrounded the crowd, firmly blocking the steps of the dormitory.

At this time, the Knights of Light had also rushed outside the palace, but they saw that the gate of the palace was closed, and the high city walls were full of archers with bows and arrows, and Commander Andrews stood on the city wall and shouted to the Knights of Light: "You Knights of Light dare to attack the palace of the Varu Empire, there is no emperor, does the Sect of Light want to start a war with the empire?"

A middle-aged man in silver-white knight's armor stepped forward, looked up and said to Andrews: "You also saw the help sign cast by Cardinal Owen just now, I don't care what happened inside your Varu Empire, I just need to guarantee the safety of Cardinal Owen." If Cardinal Owen makes any mistakes, even if he goes to war with your Varu Empire!"

The Bright Knight's tough attitude gave Andrews a little headache, but he immediately continued: "No problem, Cardinal Owen is the deputy leader of the Alliance Arbitration Panel, we naturally won't hurt him, you are waiting outside the palace now, and Cardinal Owen will be invited out later." ”

The Knight of Light believed in the God of Light all his life, and he was honest and trustworthy, but he didn't expect Andrews to just deliberately delay time, and when he saw Andrews say this, he waited patiently outside the palace.

But all the way to the light frenzy Feng Xifan no matter what three seven twenty-one, the front of the palace city is full of archers, Feng Xifan went around to the side of the palace city, found a place where the guards are not so strict, a few vertically to the root of the city wall, the footsteps on the city wall to connect the dots, the whole person along the city wall straight up, in a guard exclamation with a sword point countdown, then successfully turned into the palace.

Thanks to the guidance of Cardinal Owen's road signs, Feng Xifan came to the emperor's dormitory without much difficulty, and saw that Leo was surrounded by many palace guards in public, and tried his best to block and fight. Feng Xifan didn't make a sound, but jumped down from the eaves in a low-key manner, came to the back of the layers of palace guards, and knocked down the defenseless guards behind him one by one.

The Knight of Light outside the palace waited for a while, but he never saw Archbishop Owen, stepped forward and pointed angrily at Andrews on the palace and said, "Why haven't you seen His Majesty Owen yet? If you don't hand over the bishop, don't blame us for attacking the city immediately!"

Andrews hurriedly smiled and said to the Knight of Light: "Lord Knight, please wait for a while, we will invite His Majesty Owen out soon, be patient, please wait!"

While Andrews was stalling for time, several nobles from the Imperial Party rushed to report to the Knights of Light that the four legions outside the city had entered the city, closed the city gates, and hurried towards the palace. Only then did the Knight of Light realize that he had fallen for Andrews, and hurriedly ordered the Knight of Light to launch an attack on Miyagi.

It's a pity that although the Knights of Light are strong, they lack siege weapons to prepare, and the walls of the Varu Imperial Palace are pervertedly high, although the knights of the Knights of Light have thick armor and strong defense, they have no way to deal with the arrows on the city wall like rain.

At this moment, the Wei soldiers led by Ney rushed over, and after a brief exchange with the Bright Knights, the Bright Knights made way and let the heavily armed Wei warriors come to the edge of the palace.

The palace guards on Miyagi don't care if it's a knight of light or a soldier on either side, as long as they approach Miyagi, it's a burst of indiscriminate shooting. Under the command of Wu Jin, the Wei soldiers were in a good position under the palace, the first two rows of soldiers used heavy shields to block the arrows, and the back row of soldiers took off the strong crossbows behind them, and fired a volley at those guards from the gaps in the big shields.

On the city wall, a row of archers fell like dumplings, and the momentum of the rain of arrows was also stagnant, taking advantage of this opportunity, the knights of light roared beside him, and led the knights of light under his command to charge towards the city gate.

The knights of light puffed up vigorous fighting spirit, and the huge knight sword slammed into the city gate one after another with the impact of the war horse, even if the war horse hit the head on the city gate and neighed and fell to the ground. (To be continued.) )
