Chapter 516: In the City of Iron Hammers
There were about 2,000 garrisons in Hammer City, which was only enough for one legion, and at first glance it seemed that it was too few to be inconspicuous. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, it is important to know that this is not a state of war, and the total population of Hammer City is only 40,000, and the ratio of soldiers to civilians is about 20 to 1.
That's a high percentage, and Kamal has just sent a large number of soldiers to collect taxes, even though they have all returned.
As a reward for them, Kamal gave them a few days off, and most of the soldiers went away with their secretly withheld belongings.
As a result, the garrison in the city was in a relatively empty state, but because the situation was generally calm, there was no real threat.
Not to mention Kamal, even Saida didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, even if there was a threat, it would be too late to gather the army.
He was still very confident in the defense of Hammer City, but who would have thought that the enemy would appear in the city so openly?
"You guys, how did you get in? And Sege, what's going on, by the way, you brought them in!
Kamal was completely alarmed by this scene, and after a while he came back to his senses, he pointed at Seg and scolded bitterly, which was too silent.
"Don't panic, everyone, protect the Governor, block them all, don't let them get close, block them all, and press them all!"
Saida drew his sword to protect Kamal, and he quickly judged that the number of opponents had increased to five hundred in an instant with the addition of the soldiers hiding in the carriage.
And he can clearly smell the smell of blood from these hostile soldiers, this is not an ordinary army, it has just come down from the battlefield.
It is definitely an army of the level of the Empire's elite legion, not comparable to their local armies that lack equipment and training, and the situation is critical!
"Your Excellency Saida, this Duke has heard that you have always been a loyal and upright person, and Governor Kamal should be very clear about what Governor Kamal has done, and if you don't stop his behavior that has brought shame to the family, it will be okay to protect him and fight him to the end?"
Lin Ye righteously scolded Saida, at this time the soldiers under his command had already fought with the Governor's Guard, and his attitude was calm in the shadow of the sword and sword.
Lancelot was at his side, closing in on Saida and Kamal, where soldiers came to try to block and were knocked out by Lancelot.
"Saida, you are my most loyal subordinate, you must not betray me like that bastard of Sege, you all give it to me, stop him, you must not let them come, hmph, just because of this, do you want to capture our Iron Hammer City? It's just a dream!"
Kamal hid behind Saida, constantly pushing the guards forward to fend off Lin Ye and Lancelot, who were approaching.
Although there were many soldiers of the Governor's Guard around, and the number was as high as 400, their combat effectiveness could not be compared with that of the invaders.
A dozen people had already fallen on the ground in a few face-to-face battles, forcing the soldiers of the Governor's Guard to retreat step by step, not daring to step forward.
"Governor Kamal, it seems that you don't know anything about military affairs except for collecting money, now that we have successfully infiltrated Hammer City, what do you think we are going to do next?
Saida was one of the few sober people left in Hammer City, and even in the face of such a situation, he could make accurate judgments.
"Are you prepared outside, and have already sent people to take the city gate, but this is impossible, even if you want to control Iron Hammer City, you need at least 2,000 troops, and it is shocking enough to be able to produce 500 elites, this is impossible!"
Saida looked at Lin Ye in disbelief, he shook his head, he really couldn't understand why this empire's henchman was here.
"What's impossible? Isn't Duke Ben standing here the best proof of this? Don't be stubborn, just be caught!"
Lin Ye was pressing forward step by step, and with Lancelot by his side, no one could threaten his safety.
Under the elite troops under Lancelot's command, the soldiers of the Governor's Guard did not dare to fight to the death, and were soon forced to the door of the Governor's Palace.
"What's the matter with you idiots, hurry up, I'll give you money, kill them all, don't listen to his nonsense, Hammer City is impregnable, soon I will gather troops from all over the country to suppress it, none of you want to live, all of you have to die!"
Kamal urged anxiously, but the soldiers of the Doge's Guard were all suspicious, and they all turned their eyes to Saida, not knowing what to do.
"While we were talking, my men had already sent a false order from Governor Kamal to have the City Guards rush over to suppress the rebellion at the Governor's Palace, presumably on their way by this time. Lin Ye looked behind him, and there was indeed a noisy footstep coming.
The city guard was about 600 men, and when combined with the governor's guard, it would be 1,000 men.
"Okay, it's a good time, wait for the soldiers of the city guard to come, attack on both sides, see how you resist, I have to kill you without leaving a piece of armor!"
When Kamal heard that someone had come to save him, he was excited and immediately applauded, while Saida, who was protecting him, turned pale all the time.
"The city guards are coming? Damn, what a cunning boy, how many troops did you come, how did you get around Griffon's Fortress?"
Saida was shocked, but he really couldn't figure out the last question, the young duke openly led his army to the belly of the empire.
Looking at the number of troops brought by this battle, there are still quite a few troops, but whether they are from the Rose family territory in the south to the north, or from the far southeast.
They all had to pass through the Griffon Fortress to appear here, could it be that the Griffon Fortress had been breached?
Even with Iseda's experience, he didn't understand what was going on, and his mind was full of question marks.
"Your Excellency the Governor, we're here to help, hehe, it's finally time for a chance to perform, brothers, all of you are doing a good job. ”
"I'll just say that something is wrong with these people, Saige, you bastard really rebelled, see if we don't clean you up!"
"Lord Governor, Lord Saida, don't worry, with the people of our city guards, it will be easy to suppress it!"
The officer of the city guard looked excited, such an opportunity was too dreamy, didn't he give him credit for nothing?
When they heard that a rebellion had broken out, they immediately rushed over without stopping, and there was no shop in this village!
"You fools, you actually left your post without permission, oh no, I'm afraid the city gate has been lost now!"
Saida was so angry that he stomped his feet, and even cut off the only way out, they were completely finished!
Kamal looked at his loyal subordinate suspiciously, what was this Saida talking about?
