Chapter 597: Assassination Failed
The starry sky was vast and deep, the night was as quiet as a pool of still water, and after a day of fierce fighting, the barracks of the Far Eastern Army were calm and peaceful. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers rested around the fire, telling each other jokes and hopes for the future, and they were on the side with the upper hand.
Some people said that after the end of the war, they would return to the Far East to marry and have children, some planned to go back and open a grocery store, and some planned to stay in the army.
Their future is bright and bright, but in the middle of the night, dozens of dark shadows quietly sneaked into the barracks, silently groping their way forward.
Their goal was simple and straightforward, towards the military tent in the center, where the core of the entire military camp was located, where Lin Ye was located.
"As long as that demon from the darkness is killed, they will be completely defeated if they lack the core, and victory or defeat will be here, right there!"
The man in black in the lead pointed to the brightly lit military tent and rushed in first, indiscriminately slashing at the target.
"Wait a minute, it doesn't feel right to cut down, it doesn't feel like you've cut meat, this one is wearing a cape...... Dummy, fooled!"
The man in black pulled his cloak away, only to find that the target with his back to them was nothing more than a dummy disguised in clothes and wood, and he was shocked.
"You bold assassins dare to assassinate the Duke, don't even think about running away, arrest them all, it's really bold!"
Just when the group of men in black realized that their mission had failed and were about to retreat, a large amount of fire suddenly appeared in the originally peaceful military camp behind.
The soldiers of the Guards, who had long been in ambush, all raised their torches and surrounded them, blocking all their retreats, numbering hundreds of them.
Crouff pointed at the soldiers and yelled, he had finally had a chance to show himself and become vivid.
"Damn, did you set a trap to lure us on purpose? What a cunning bastard, everyone fights, the goddess of light will take care of us!"
The black-clothed man in the lead shouted and rushed towards the guards who surrounded them, and he had no intention of surrendering.
He brandished the long knife in his hand and rushed forward to fight to the death, as an assassin, he had long been aware of going to die, and even for them, death was the ultimate relief!
However, even with such determination, when the guards approached with their spears up and strangled them, their lives seemed so fragile.
He was stabbed in the shoulder by the soldier's spear when he couldn't get close at all, and he was forced to retreat all the time, and he was wounded to the ground before he even had a chance to fight back.
In a military camp with tens of thousands of elites, no matter whether the assassination is successful or not, they are destined to have no way to escape, and they are unwilling to do so.
Most of the Assassins were hanged, a few were arrested, and the guards intended to bring them down for interrogation, including the Assassin leader.
"Just because you also want to assassinate the Duke, don't weigh your own weight, go down and give a good explanation, it's better to reveal some information or something, so that you can give full play to your wonderful life surplus value, deal with people like you, my General Crouff has a way, I am not afraid of you......"
Crouff seems to be a general, after all, it is a great achievement to lay down the logistics support of the royal capital, and he is only one step away from promotion.
Just as he was about to take the assassins down for interrogation, and there was no way to pry their mouths open, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
"You wicked heretics will be punished by the goddess of light, and the man from the darkness will surely take you to hell!"
As the Assassin leader shouted, blood began to spill from the corners of his mouth, and his pupils dilated, as if he were dying.
"Did this bastard hide poison in his teeth beforehand? Hurry up and open your mouth and clean the poison, by the way, and be careful with those guys!"
Having spent some time in the royal capital, Kluff knew a lot about the Assassins, and slapped his head at the fact that he had forgotten about it in a moment of pride.
At this time, the other Assassins reacted in the same way, all vomiting blood, and the soldiers tried to stop them, but to no avail.
"Are all these bastards dead?Damn, how can I explain to the Duke now, my title of general shouldn't be tainted by this, right? What should I do, what should I do, if I can't be promoted to general because of these stupid assassins, it will definitely not be worth it!"
Crouff's mind was full of thoughts about when he would become a general, and he was very troubled by the fact that he did not leave a living mouth to take for interrogation.
At the same time, on the other side of the barracks, Lin Ye was sitting cross-legged on the ground drinking hot soup and talking to a woman wearing a veil.
"There's been a lot of commotion over there, is there really an assassin coming to assassinate you? Your judgment is really accurate, how do you know this?"
The Messiah looked at the young man in front of him with interest, she left the affairs of the army to Lola, and she stayed here.
After all, now that Wang Du will be conquered in the future, there are many things that need to be discussed, whether it is the future of this country or the future of the Medusa family.
"It's easy to guess, the royal capital is in danger now, they are at the end of their rope, and they can't wait for reinforcements, so there is only one way left to assassinate, and this should be the cardinal's advice and arrangement, if I am not careful, maybe I have really been tricked. ”
Lin Ye blew the hot air gently, and the reactions of all parties were expected by him, and it was he who ordered the siege of the city slowly, otherwise the royal capital would have fallen.
"Are the reinforcements you are talking about the elven army in the north and the federal army in the south? It's really amazing that Rhaegar would make such a choice, but under normal circumstances, these two armies should have arrived near the royal capital, why haven't they moved for a long time? What's going on?"
Messiah didn't know in advance that the armies of the north and south were approaching the king's capital, and when Lin Ye told her, she was quite surprised.
Because of a situation that even Rhaegar did not expect, he ordered Marquis Campbell of Stormwind Fortress to let the elven army go south, but Marquis Campbell, who was loyal to the frontier, did not obey his orders, and the same is true in the south, and both armies are currently trapped on the border. ”
Lin Ye receives confidential letters from the north and south every day, and he knows the situation near the border better than anyone else.
"But with the strength of these two armies, they shouldn't be trapped, right, the Storm Legion in Stormstorm Fortress is strong, but it is far from being the opponent of the elven army, and the same is true in the south. The Messiah shook his head slightly, she had been operating in the north for many years.
With the situation on the border clear, it was hard for her to imagine what the Storm Legion could rely on to withstand the onslaught of the elven army.
"Of course, it is impossible to rely on the soldiers of the Empire alone, but what if you add the orc army under my command?Beautiful Miss Messiah, do you think that I did not command the orc army to go south, because I was afraid that they would scare the people of the Empire?" Lin Ye smiled lightly, and he threw a few pieces of firewood into the pyre.
The fire burned brighter and brighter, reflecting his and Messiah's eyes, and the war was still going on.
