Chapter 513: Occupation

On 26 June, a fleet of convoys and convoys laden with the Rock Regiment and the Guards Regiment arrived at the Zangjin Bay. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The remnants of the Fourth Squadron of the Invincible Fleet, which were cowering in the Hidden Golden Bay, never dreamed that the Norton armed forces would enter the Golden Harbor under the guise of the Invincible Fleet. Although the Battle of the Romanée Sea has been over for nearly twenty days, the news of the total destruction of the Armada is still unknown to the Business Alliance.

The young master of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce, who successfully escaped, was unlucky, because the two medium-sized fast armed warships he chose had also been shelled, and when he was about to reach the territory of the Chikde Chamber of Commerce, he had to go ashore due to the leakage of the ship, and finally returned home after three days of trekking in the mountains, and lay in bed for another day before recovering. It would now take seventeen or eighteen days for the messengers to rush to the city of Moriente, even if they were to hurry, to get the news there.

Therefore, the Commercial Alliance is still waiting for the arrival of the Armada and the transport fleet day and night, and it is already more than twenty days late, but the Commercial Alliance does not have the courage to send warships to meet or search for it. Since the Norton family sent a dozen large armed warships equipped with bronze guns to block the entrance to the sea in Zangjin Bay, if the Fourth Fleet sent fewer warships, it would be killed, and it could not afford to send more. The first two encounters with the Norton family's North Sea Fleet had already greatly damaged the vitality of the Fourth Fleet, and there were less than 50 large and medium-sized armed warships left intact, and it was already the best ability to defend the Hidden Golden Bay from allowing the North Sea Fleet to rush in.

When a fleet of warships and transports laden with the flag of the Armada appeared in the bay of Zangjin, they were greeted with dazzling cheers. This, coupled with Lorlist's order for several large armed warships cruising outside the mouth of the sea to shell several reefs, caused the remnants of the Fourth Fleet to be so busy preparing for a surprise attack by the North Sea Fleet that they forgot to board the ships for inspection. When they turned back, they realized that what had come down from the transport ships was not the long-awaited armaments and logistical supplies, but the enemy in full gear......

Seeing that Reddy and the Great Sword Master of Hughes each led two corps to raid and capture the walls and city defense facilities of the inner and outer cities, Viscount Penelope, who was standing on the slipway, said bitterly: "This is the first time, the capital of the commercial alliance that has been established for nearly two hundred years, the city of Moriente, has finally been captured by its enemies today, all of which blame us for our incompetence, it is the failure of the Armada that caused the fall of Moriente City, we are all sinners......"

Lorist laughed: "There is a first time for everything, there is no need to blame yourself for all the sins, you can't blame yourself for the failure of the Invincible Armada, it's just that the business alliance has fallen after adopting the lord system, and it is no longer the vibrant, energetic and centripetal country." The former city of Moriente was free, and I love that great city.

But the current city of Morent is full of decay, even if it is not for our Norton family, there will still be other countries to capture this city of Moronte. Lord Viscount Penelope, don't feel guilty. All the first times are the same as women, although some of the pain is impressive, but the next second and third time will slowly get used to it and begin to learn to enjoy it......"

"Flutter" Genorio and several guards next to him burst into laughter on the spot, and even Duke Fausta couldn't stop laughing. Although the Kingdom of Chigeda and the commercial alliance are allies, the commercial alliance has always been strong, and it is true that Duke Fausta maintains the alliance between the two countries, but he does not want to be in the position of being called around as a little brother all the time. Now that the business alliance is at the hands of Lorlist, he is also happy to see it, so he laughs without scruples.

However, Viscount Penelope and several high-ranking personnel of the Invincible Armada were so angry by Lorlist's words that they were red-faced, if it weren't for Lorlist's identity as a sword master, maybe they would have drawn their swords on the spot and asked for a duel.

"Your Royal Highness, Grand Duke Nornton, you are too vulgar to be a nobleman!" retorted Viscount Penelope.

"It's not rough. Lorist said lightly: "I'm sorry, everyone, after all, I studied in this city for ten years and became a mercenary, so every time I come back here, I always forget my noble identity, thinking of that happy and free mercenary life, I am used to speaking in the tone of a mercenary, which should be a deep imprint of life in the city of Moriente on my body."

Although my words were vulgar and unpleasant, I was telling the truth. If it weren't for the desire to end the war as soon as possible, which had drained the blood of innocents from both countries, I would not have used such a sneak attack to capture the city of Morente. I would prefer to break all obstacles step by step from the plains of Manihill, and lead my clan's armed legions to the city of Morente, so that this great city will open its gates and prostrate before my horse's hooves......

Please don't look at me like that, guys, I'm not crazy, and I'm not talking nonsense. Imagine that if the Norton family, who have mastered the secrets of gunpowder, were to move the bronze cannons on the battleship to land, would you be sure that the fortresses, cities and defenses on the Plains of Mana Hill would be able to stop the armed forces of our Norton family?

It was because we did not want to cause a large number of casualties and more blood shed on the forces of the commercial alliance that we adopted the strategy of sneak attack and capture the city of Moriente to achieve permanent peace between the two countries. Please do not doubt the sincerity of our Norton family, as long as the Business Alliance is willing to sign a truce and sign a peace agreement, we will immediately withdraw from the city of Morant and return this great city to the Business Alliance. Whether or not this dawn of peace can reach the Mana Hill Plain will require the efforts of your lords. ”

Viscount Penelope was stunned, even Duke Fausta didn't expect Lorist to say such a reason, so he stopped laughing and began to think deeply. Viscount Penelope, who came back to his senses, bowed deeply to Lorist very excitedly: "Your Royal Highness, your teachings must be taken to heart, as long as we can stop this war and restore peace, we are willing to do everything in our power to help you......"

Lorist touched his nose, nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your enthusiasm, I believe that with everyone's efforts, peace will come soon." We, the Norton family, will also keep our promise to return the city of Moriente to the Business Alliance intact. Okay, it's almost time, it's time for us to get off the ship, and there's still a lot of work for me to take care of. ”

The Norton family's armed raid on the city of Moriente was peaceful at first, and the plan went very smoothly. Archswordsmen and Reddy each led two legions to occupy the walls of the outer and inner cities, and the soldiers of the legion marched through some of the streets to the cheers and praise of many of the residents of Morente.

These residents of the city of Moriente regarded the Norton family as reinforcements recruited from several provinces in the southern part of the continent by the commercial alliance, and they cheered emotionally at the soldiers running by the streets, and from time to time erupted in slogans to defeat the invaders, destroy the alliance of the nobles of the Andinac Kingdom, and fight to the imperial capital......

The soldiers of the Norton family's armed forces, who were running to their respective targets, were laughing and crying, but fortunately they were disciplined, and everyone followed the team quickly with their heads down, without saying a word. Instead, a large number of residents of the city of Moriente gathered from the streets, and some of the people who were self-proclaimed military experts praised the strength of the army in front of them, believing that the victory of the commercial alliance was not far off, which caused the surrounding people to burst into cheers from time to time.

It's not that no one has ever questioned the Angry Bear insignia on the Norton family's armed armor, but they didn't expect the Norton Northland's armed legions to march in a swaggering march through the streets of Moldon. This is mainly due to the fact that the Norton family is armed with no banner, so that those who are suspicious are struggling to wonder which aristocratic family in the south of the continent has a bear pattern as their family crest, and they do not realize that the soldiers on the street are all enemies of the business alliance.

The occupation of the outer city wall was very smooth, and the more than 400,000 troops armed by the commercial alliance were all arranged on the front line of the Falcan Hill Plain to confront the more than 300,000 noble coalition troops of the Andinac Kingdom led by His Royal Highness, and the rear was a little empty, and the two fortress cities closest to the city of Morent each had a thousand-man team to garrison, which was because the commercial alliance believed that the rear was foolproof.

When the Great Swordsman and El led the two guards to occupy the outer city walls, the garrison soldiers of the city of Moriente thought that they had come to take over the city walls, and they were all elated that someone finally came to replace them, until they were disarmed, and they did not know that they had become prisoners, but by this time they had no power to resist, and had to resign themselves to fate.

However, Reddy and Bodfinger fail when they go to raid the inner city. Unlike the city defense garrison corps in the outer city, the inner city walls are guarded by the guards of the six giants and six chambers of commerce of the business alliance. At first, Reddy was lucky enough to take over the North City Gate and capture five or six hundred people, but it was soon discovered by the patrol, and after the alarm of the enemy attack sounded, the town guard swordsmen and armed guards of the various chambers of commerce in the inner city gathered together, and suffered great casualties and took back the lost North City Gate.

Reddy and Bodfinger were both wounded, Reddy was beaten out of the city after killing two first-level great swordsmen and being combined by three great swordsmen, while Bodfinger was against a second-level great swordsman, and he was unlucky to have three more holes in his body. Fortunately, his swordsmanship was well defended, and his injuries were not life-threatening, and the soldiers of the Rock Legion flocked to him, and the second-level great sword master accepted it because he didn't know the situation, and he didn't care about taking his life.

The battle for the north gate of the inner city ended in the defeat of the Rock Legion, the Rock Legion suffered more than a thousand soldiers, while the Chamber of Commerce guards of the Business Alliance paid nearly three thousand casualties, plus two great sword masters killed in the battle, but finally recaptured the north city gate, and is currently behind closed doors. The two corps of the Rock Legion did not continue to attack the city, but firmly besieged the inner city.

did not capture the inner city, which is also counted as Lorist's expectation, the soldiers of the four legions armed by the Norton family are much more elite and stronger than those of the commercial alliance, but compared with the commercial alliance, the Norton family is far from the opponent of the commercial alliance in terms of high-end combat power. Not to mention anything else, the Norton family is now only three great swordsmen, including Reddy, but the old man Ingjelek is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he can only sit in the family territory.

The Great Swordsman of Xiusi was born as a slave gladiator, and was promoted from the fight of life and death, although he was a second-level great swordsman, his strength was no less than that of an ordinary third-level great swordsman. As for Reddy, not to mention, Lorist believed that his cultivation of the Danhai Qi Induction Technique had reached the late stage of the fourth layer, and he had already surpassed the level of a third-level great sword master.

But no matter how powerful the Great Sword Master and Reddy are, there are only two of them, and they can't compare to the number of Great Sword Masters enshrined by the various chambers of commerce of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance. There are three or four great swordsmen enshrined in each of the six giants and six major chambers of commerce of the business alliance, and the other second-rate chambers of commerce and third-rate chambers of commerce also enshrine more or less one or two. Reddy was forced out of the city by a third-level great sword master and two second-level great sword masters, and there was an extra bloody wound left by the sneak attack on his back, and he was helpless to watch the north city gate being closed.

The inner city of Moriente is the base of all the second-rate and above chambers of commerce of the business alliance, so each chamber of commerce will send a great sword master to sit here, which is the main reason why the Rock Legion cannot gain a foothold after capturing the North City Gate. The armed guards and great swordsmen of the various businesses who reacted were assembled to form a powerful armed force, among which there were many gold-level and silver-level swordsmen, who were good at street combat and hand-to-hand combat, and it was inevitable that the Rock Legion would suffer.

At this time, the city of Morent finally reacted, alarm bells and trumpets sounded in succession, cries and shouts everywhere, panic and turmoil began to spread in the city.

In the midst of the panic, Lorist rode straight to Mount Brin with a dozen or so guards. This is the most beautiful area of the city of Morente, as well as the most expensive land and house prices, and only the wealthy class of business alliances are eligible to build villas and mansions here. When he lived in the city of Moriente, Lorlist's dream was to own a villa on Mount Bryn and live happily with his beloved girlfriend.

I have a house facing the sea and spring flowers...... It's about the villas and mansions on Bollinger Hill that face the Golden Bay. However, now Lorist is not going up the mountain to fulfill his wish back then, but because the Storm Sword Saint is recuperating in the most extensive Tingtao Mountain Villa on the top of Brin Mountain.

In a life-and-death battle with Lorlist, Lorlist's chest was cut off by a sword, and the Storm Sword Saint did not get any favors, and his sternum was shattered and he fled. It only took two years for Lorist to heal his injuries, and although he was assassinated by the Great Swordsman of the Commercial Alliance during this period, he had Reddy by his side, and the Danhai Qi Induction Technique he practiced gave Lorist a lot of help, so that his injuries were recovered in the shortest possible time. The Storm Sword Saint was not so lucky, and after three years of recuperation, it is said that the sternum has just grown, and it will take at least more than a year before full recovery......

Taking advantage of his illness to kill him, Lorist just wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots this time, he was not so stupid to wait until the Storm Sword Saint recovered from his injuries and then had an open and honest duel, those who had this idea were Long Aotian, and he didn't mind if he uprooted this scourge as soon as possible, and without the waist of the Storm Sword Saint Business Alliance, it wouldn't be so hard.

It's a pity that there is no Storm Sword Saint in the Tingtao Villa on the mountain, and when he grabbed the servants in the villa and asked, he learned that the old man was watching the scenery on the mountain in the morning, and then he suddenly came back and said that he wanted to go out, and left the villa in a carriage escorted by several of his apprentices, and he had been walking for more than forty minutes.

Lorist ran to the place where the old man said the servant was looking at the scenery, only to find that it was directly opposite the wharf of the Golden Bay, and at a glance he could see the large armed warship he was on. Well, needless to say, it is obvious that this old man is old and has no eyes, and he recognizes himself at a glance, and it is best to go if he knows that it is not good, no wonder he always feels as if someone is watching him when he gets off the boat, and he doesn't care if there is nothing abnormal left and right.

"Your Highness, shall we go after ......," one of the guards asked.

Lorist shook his head, it had been more than forty minutes, looking at the chaotic city at the foot of the mountain, it was already difficult to find the trace of this old man's escape, and he would not be able to find him if he drilled into any corner of the big city with a population of millions.

"This old man's life is great," Lorist said through gritted teeth, "Let's go to the inner city first, and controlling the city of Moriente first is the most important thing......"
