As the battle of the ancestral gods slowly came to an end, on the side of Artis, the battle also began to come to an end. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Under the city of Cecil, when the Duchy of Indelli and the Duchy of Ardisus were in a stalemate, a 5,000 knights composed of the Northland Natural Church raided the camp of the Duchy of Indeli, and the fire was spread under the divine magic, and the enemy army was severely damaged in one fell swoop, and King Barrett of Indeli was killed on the spot, at the hands of Pope Granmar of the Natural Church.

Then, as the magic raged, the knights roamed and the army collapsed on the spot.

Artis attacked on the spot, made peace with the army outside the city, and killed countless enemies.

The remnants of the rout army slowly gathered under the call of some nobles, and then they all went south, and the situation was reversed in an instant, and they were caught off guard by an unknown number of people.

You must know that before the reversal of this battle, I don't know how many people thought that Artis was going to lose and were ready to prepare.

Putting aside those nobles in the city and the like for the time being, even the vassals of Artis have some undetermined people who are ready to secretly surrender, and some have even begun to act.

But with Barrett's death and the defeat of the Duchy of Indeli, these people fell into bad luck.

Those who are just ready to do it are okay to say, but those who are ready to surrender and even start to act, Artis has no intention of letting go at all.

Suddenly, the nobles in the city fell into bad luck, and for a while, I don't know how many long-standing, prominent families were imprisoned under the coercion of a large number of soldiers and guards who broke into the door. Completely disregarding their noble blood and prominent status.

In a prison, a faint light shrouded the place, accompanied by a cacophony of shouts.

Outside the prison, countless people were standing, their faces pale.

At this moment, another sound of footsteps sounded, and their hearts couldn't help but tremble, and then they looked into the distance.

There were several guards, dressed in armor and looking very strong, pressing one man forward.

Because of the fact that most of the nobles have a vindictive spirit, most of the guards sent out by Artis to capture are officers who have practiced vindictiveness, and some are even their own personal guards, so they all look very elite, and the blood contaminated with the continuous battle is eye-catching.

In front of them, there were several richly dressed nobles, their faces pale, as if they had been hit hard, and only the last trace of breath remained.

"That's, the head of the Anoka family, I didn't expect even him..."

When they recognized one of them, the faces of everyone present turned cold, and they watched the characters who usually needed to look up like a dead dog, dragged into prison by the untouchables in their eyes, and a strong sense of crisis rose in their hearts.

"Damn!" a nobleman couldn't help but scold.

"What are they trying to do, to arrest nobles on such a large scale and send them to prison, aren't they afraid that we will resist?"

As soon as his words fell, there were acquaintances around him who hurriedly grabbed him, and he was relieved when he saw that the guards in front of him did not turn around and notice this.

When the people around saw this, they were just silent, and faintly, there seemed to be a sigh coming from it, full of helplessness.

Unlike the city-states of the past, in the newly established Duchy of Adisus, the power of the nobility was not relied on to a large extent, because the main foundation depended on believers and sacrifices.

Even, it specifically restricted many nobles, depriving and weakening their power.

What's more, with the defeat of the Duchy of Indeli, the situation in the Northern Regions is now clear at a glance, and the Duchy of Yadixu will rise. In this case, it is a joke that these nobles want to influence the city-state and even threaten the king as before.

On the other side, in the governor's hall in Cecil City, several maids were entering and exiting it, all of them in a good posture and with a noble air, which made Nadir who stepped forward on the side a little stunned.

"How?"

In front of him, Artis looked at him and said with a smile.

Seeing Artis asking, Nadir lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, I just think it's a pity." ”

"What is there to be sorry for. Artis turned his head and looked around: "These are the women that those nobles have tried their best to send over during this time, I heard that all of them are noble women, with high noble blood. ”

"But now, it's not just that I can only send it over obediently and be a servant. ”

He looked at Nadir and smiled faintly: "If you have a favorite, just pick a few yourself." ”

Seeing him say this, Nadir's heart jumped slightly, looking at the beautiful women with a good temperament, and they didn't say anything to refuse.

"How's the battle ahead?" asked Artis after a moment.

"Very nice. ”

Nadir looked at Artis and said, "With our victory, the news of Barrett's death gradually spread, and the coalition forces of the small city states that had been attacking our defenses in the other two directions stopped and returned to their respective territories. ”

Artis nodded slightly: "Let the defense line in those places remain unchanged, although the chance is small, but it is still necessary to guard against a sudden attack by the other party." ”

Then he sent people to persuade him to surrender, so that the small city-states that had previously surrendered to the Duchy of Indeli would surrender. ”

"Bazel, have they arrived?"

He asked, turning around.

"We are almost under the city of Cecil, but because of the distance, there are still some troops who were originally stationed on the way. ”

Nadir responded.

This part was the force that was used to stay behind and suppress the turmoil. However, with the end of the Battle of Cecil and the defeat of the Duchy of Indeli, this part can be appropriately withdrawn and used for the attack.

Artis lowered his head in thought, and then said: "Cultivate for another half a month, and then we will immediately lead the army out of the city and attack the south." ”

As the order was given, one by one the messengers walked through the northern regions, carrying one after another heralds.

It is worth mentioning that the content of this herald is the same as that of the previous Duchy of Indeli. They all threatened to make people surrender with coercion and inducement, plus the slaughter of the city and the extermination of the clan. If it weren't for the object, there would be little difference.

Still, it's simple, but it's effective.

At this time, with the death of King Barit of Indelia, in his principality, because Barrit was ruthless during his lifetime and almost slaughtered all his brothers when he succeeded to the throne, the royal family had to support his child to succeed to the throne as king in an emergency, and he was only ten years old.

It has just been defeated, and in the face of such a grim form, and it is a young child who has succeeded to the throne, except for a few die-hard loyalists, few people have confidence in it.

In addition, Barrett was also hated for the rampant expropriation and crazy oppression of the surrounding city-states. At this time, all broke out, and several principalities killed the envoys and officials sent by the original Duchy of Indeli on the spot, although they had not yet surrendered to the Duchy of Artsus, they were also de facto independent and openly resisted.

This situation is very similar to the previous attack on the north by the Principality of Indeli in its heyday. But the difference is that at that time, no matter how much Artis was at a disadvantage, there were still countless staunch believers who were by his side, firmly supporting him. However, the Duchy of Indeli did not have such conditions, and the only few diehards seemed very powerless in the surrounding backlash.

Half a month later, Artis gathered troops from all sides, plus a total of 20,000 people who had stayed behind and supported before, and marched towards the south.

Along the way, there was little resistance from the major defense lines, and most of them surrendered on the spot after the army marched to the city, and even local nobles led the crowd to greet them. Resistance is rare in very few places.

In this way, the army broke through all the way and went straight to a city.

The city was huge, even larger than Cecil, with a large army stationed on it, and the knights looked down with expressionless faces.

Seeing this, Artis sighed slightly, knowing in his heart that he had finally met the diehards.

But this is also normal, after all, the Duchy of Indeli has been established for hundreds of years, and although it has been defeated, its influence cannot disappear all at once, and there will still be some diehards more or less.

For this kind of person, Artis has some admiration and appreciation in his heart, but at the same time, a trace of killing intent in his heart is also permeated.

After all, the hero of the enemy is the enemy of mine. No matter how loyal you are, you are also loyal to others. And for Artis, the life of such a person is an obstacle.

At this time, a knight in the distance came up with an arrow in his hand: "Your Majesty, the other party has refused to surrender." ”

Artis nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Your Majesty, please give the order to attack the city!"

"Such a person who dares to disobey His Majesty must be put to death!"

Voices rang out around him.

Artis turned around and saw that the people who spoke were some nobles who had surrendered before, and they were all speaking at this time, showing their loyalty.

He couldn't help but sneer in his heart and nodded silently.

He directly arranged those who surrendered in front and cooperated with the sacrifice to attack the city.

The siege was very tragic. The moment that was originally under the city of Cecil continues to be repeated, and bloody scenes are played out here.

Soon, Artis had to send his troops up, and with the cooperation of the sacrifices, they poured onto the walls of the city.

All around, Nadir looked at the walls with an ugly face, palpitating at the damage caused during the siege.

He looked behind him, Artis, whose face was always calm, and couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

"Isn't there an ancestral god?"

Artis looked at the city, sensing the breath coming from it, and thought with some confusion.

Then, he thought of the ancestral god of the Principality of Indeli before, and couldn't help but have some realization: "It seems that the ancestral god of the entire Northern Regions has been swallowed by the ancestral god of the original Principality of Indeli. ”

"But this way, it also saves trouble. ”

He thought as he looked at the fierce fighting ahead.

A month later, the city was finally breached under a steady stream of onslaught from Artis.

Artis slaughtered the entire clan of the lords who had been guarding the city, and then after repairing for a while, he went straight south and continued his attack.

Suddenly, the entire Duchy of Indeli shook, and countless nobles surrendered one after another under this majesty.
