Chapter 277: Unexpected
Seeing Asilid being led to the City Lord's Mansion by Bud, the resistance forces also calmed down a lot, and they had the confidence to call the Tors because they had the support of Asirid, the great knight, and more than 5,000 soldiers of the Taylor Legion behind them, but seeing the situation, their own backing was obviously afraid of the Tors army, which was different from their understanding.
In fact, the news of the Flying Wing Kingdom is blocked, not everyone knows how strong the southern army of Thors is in the north of the Taylor Mountains, and there are also high-level nobles who intend to control public opinion, rumors say that it is because of the internal strife of their own army that they have lost the war, such as these small nobles and free people who resist the forces, but they just feel that the Tors have a little strength, and a large part of them don't know how much pressure the Taylor Army has to defend the territory.
Of course, the uninformed people do not include Brooke, but he also has the disadvantage of thinking too highly of himself, so when he knows that the southern army of Tors is strong, he still thinks that his side must be respected, after all, no matter how strong the Tors are, they are alone, and the pressure on logistics and supply is very great, and only by relying on them can they have a stable rear, of course, if the other party stupidly divides the already small number of troops to defend Gavin City, then he has nothing to say.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's go to Xicheng with the brothers of the Taylor Legion and camp in Xicheng, and then I will negotiate with the Tors and get back the treatment that heroes deserve. Brooke comforted everyone while thinking about the matter in front of him, the Tors were likely to do this, trying to subdue them to facilitate negotiations, and they could be more advanced in the future, but in fact, the Tors were strong, and they did not have an army in their hands, and they did not have the confidence to do so, and the Taylor Legion, as a frontier army, could not interfere too much.
In a mansion in Beicheng District, the surviving nobles of real power are gathered in a room, and the eyeliner has already passed the news of the arrival of the resistance forces to them.
"Gentlemen, our men are back, so be ready. The one who spoke was a handsome middle-aged man, and his voice was magnetic.
"Viscount Alva said with a smile, although that lord said that he weakened the overall power of our faction, he did not shake our foundation, and those turtles are not qualified to shake us at all. We have 10,000 troops in our hands, plus more than 4,000 guards from various private armies, once that lord leads the army away, who else can fight us?"
"That's right, if it weren't for the scruples of the adults, we could have wiped them out now, of course, the adults don't want our family to be dominant, we just give up the vacated seats to the group of turtles to sit on, anyway, our power and interests are still in our hands. ”
The old knight Oni used to be the one who worried the most, but this time he didn't say anything, and sat silently in his seat, in his opinion, as long as he firmly leaned on the Del family and obeyed the orders of the lord, he didn't need to worry too much.
More than 300 rebels followed Taylor's legion, around the ring street, to Xicheng District, that is, along the edge of the city wall, there were not many pedestrians on the road, mostly poor people living in the marginal area, seeing them only looked at them in surprise, and some of them avoided because of fear, and there was no welcome that the rebels expected.
"Bob Knight, please bring the boy here, I have something to ask him. Brooke opened the window and beckoned to the rider on horseback, the spies he had buried in Gavin City had lost contact a few days ago, otherwise he wouldn't have had to look for petty thieves to get information.
Ford hid behind the building, peering out at the troops passing by on the avenue, he didn't have any intention of attacking the group, he just watched the excitement.
Suddenly, Ford saw a knight leave the group and move towards him on horseback, as a pickpocket who had been roaming the market since childhood, he was very sensitive to danger, and quickly shrank his head and ran away.
Seeing this, Bob Knight didn't care much, and with a whip in his hand, the war horse suddenly accelerated, like a sharp arrow, soared over the low wall, and chased the fleeing boy in a few breaths, he leaned over and reached out to grab it, and lifted the young man into the air.
Ford danced in the air, shouting for help, but the effect was not obvious, and the poor people in the surrounding mud houses hurriedly closed the doors and windows.
Ford was not very surprised that people were not saved, if he saw others being captured by the mighty knights, he would definitely hide far away, so as not to set himself on fire, but the catastrophe from heaven made him want to cry without tears, what did he do, "Honorable knight, you can be magnanimous and let the boy go, I didn't mean to watch you." ”
"Hey, boy, I won't hurt you, but a noble gentleman wants to ask you some questions, and you will be rewarded with money for answering obediently. ”
Ford breathed a sigh of relief, and obediently let Bob carry it across the crowd, as for the monetary reward, it is better to ensure safety before thinking about it, and expecting too much may not be good for him.
"Lord Brooke, the man has brought it. Bob put the boy down, knocked lightly on the carriage door, and saw Brooke nodding, he quickly opened the carriage door, and whispered to the teenager: "Be careful, don't play tricks, otherwise no one will be able to save you." ”
"Yes, I understand, Knight. ”
Ford lowered his head and cautiously walked onto the carriage, and at Brooke's signal, he put half of his ass on the soft fur pad, but did not dare to sit on it completely, "Noble lord, what do you command?"
"Take it easy, lad, I just want to know what's going on in Gavin City these days, and if you tell me everything you know, I'll pay you enough commission. ”
Despite Brooke's kind face, Ford's nervousness did not decrease by half a point, and the creature who eats people and does not spit out bones is talking about these nobles, and he stumbled: "Honorable sir, do you mean these days after the capture of Gavin by Tors' army?"
Brooke smiled and nodded, "That's right, the situation of Lord Gavin and Lord Anxi after the Tors army entered the city, and what kind of sanctions the nobles in the city have suffered, of course, if you can provide me with the information of the Tors army, I will give you an additional reward." ”
"Lord Gavin and Lord Anxi are missing, I heard that because the two adults did not appear, the city of Gavin, which was in chaos, would fall overnight, as for the nobles, a large number of them had been executed the night before yesterday, but Viscount Oni and Viscount Alva were not affected, and they were released and re-in charge of Gavin City. ”
Brooke's face became more and more ugly, he could understand that Lord Gavin was missing, maybe he died due to the failure to transform the dark attribute, but how could Anthy of the Blood Clan give up his inheritance, was he killed or was there something else? If he was killed, it means that there is more than one great knight in the army of Thors.
And Oni did not become a prisoner, which was also unexpected, "The crime of collusion with darkness, even nobles cannot be exempted, how can you tell me how they will be released?"
"The announcement of the Torns said that those nobles and lords endured the humiliation and joined them that night, so that they successfully broke through the city gates and dealt a fatal blow to the dark forces. ”
"They endure humiliation?!Big joke!" Brooke snorted coldly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, probably succumbing to the feet of the Torsians, for the sake of status and power, even the glory of Gavin's nobility was abandoned, and he was willing to become a pawn of outsiders.
While despising others, Brooke did not think about it, he also wanted to provide logistics for the Tors, so as to take advantage of the situation to gain control of Gavin City, and now it seems that there are twists and turns, in the case of competitors, he can not be fragrant.
With the situation of the older group of people in power, and giving them the opportunity to rise to power, the Tors wanted a city of Gavin that could not be united, and the two factions in power had to gain their support in order to sit firmly.
Brooke asked a few more questions in a row, and Ford answered them all except for those who were completely unaware, and said everything he knew.
In the end, Brooke let the boy get out of the car and leave, and he pondered alone in the carriage, many things were beyond his expectations, the Tors wanted to divide the power of Gavin City, and he seemed to have no room to refuse, so he could only think slowly after the other party left?......
It seems that there is a list of Sanjiang remuneration and diligence, and the reward for diligence can be regarded as a kind of recognition, (⊙_⊙) , Khan a~
