Chapter 90: Under the City of Kutu (Chapter 5)
Pedal Pedal .....
A crisp sound sounded everywhere, like the sound of horses stomping on the earth.
At this moment, it is a rainy day, and the raindrops from the outside world are constantly falling, and there is a dark cloud at a glance, and it looks very dim.
Chen Heng rode his horse and walked on the road, driving the road here.
"How's the situation in Kutu City?"
Walking on the road, Chen Heng looked at his messenger and asked.
Although he had been on the road, on the way, Chen Heng did not interrupt the news from Kutu City in the slightest, and he could receive news from Kutu every few days.
For more than ten years, under Chen Heng's management, he sent many envoys to Kutu City to collect news for him.
In addition, the relationship he had built in Kutu City back then had also been exploited by him over the years.
In secret, many nobles were in tandem with Chen Heng and secretly passed the news on his behalf.
This is especially true at this time.
The southern rebels are coming, and with Oliman's soldiers around, it will be a bloody storm.
When that group of people smelled the smell of blood, they naturally knew the danger in it, so they also desperately wanted Chen Heng to come at this moment.
The consequences of Chen Heng's rush to Kutu City, they were not unexpected, but so what?
Compared with the group of southern rebels, Chen Heng is their friend, their old acquaintance, they all have a deep relationship with them, and they have a large army in their hands, which is worthy of their trust.
To put it mildly, judging from the reputation and image that Chen Heng has been operating for many years, Chen Heng is probably much more credible than Oliman in their hearts.
Not to mention the rebel army in the south.
You must know that if the group of rebels in the south really fights, the royal family of Kutu represented by Oliman will certainly be in trouble, but they will not be able to please them.
This is no longer a matter of rebellion alone, but a struggle for living space.
The rebels in the south will inevitably need to expand to the north in order to seize their interests, and even slaughter their entire families, plundering the wealth they have accumulated over the years to divide the spoils.
As nobles, they knew very well what the lords of the rebels were doing, and they knew very clearly what they would face if they came.
Even if you don't die, you have to shed a layer of skin.
After all, if they don't eat the interests they occupy, what will people take to share the spoils, and what will they take to fill their stomachs?
But if Chen Heng came, it would be different.
At least, with Chen Heng's reputation and style, as well as his friendship with them, he will definitely be much better than the southern rebels when he enters the Kutu, at least in terms of food appearance.
His reputation is also one of them.
Under Chen Heng's years of hard work, his reputation is undoubtedly very good, known as kindness, friendliness, and perseverance.
Let him come to the master of Kutu, at least those who are good friends with Chen Heng, their lives and property will be guaranteed.
With that, it's enough.
Therefore, when Chen Heng embarked on the journey and headed towards Kutu City, the messengers who sent him news along the road could often see it, almost every few days.
Moreover, as the city of Kutu gets closer and closer, the number of these emissaries continues to increase.
As for the so-called rebellion, not to mention.
Most of the territories in the area from Kutu to Soda belong to the lords of the Northland and the royal family of Kutu.
The former is naturally not a problem, and as for the latter, in the face of Chen Heng at this moment, he does not dare to disobey at all.
Chen Heng went to the rescue, which was an order given by Oliman, which was something that many people knew.
On the other hand, Chen Heng, as Vener's husband, is also a member of the royal family, and if he is seriously calculated, he can be regarded as a prince of the royal family.
Of course, what is more important is the force in his hands.
The 5,000 people in the headquarters, plus the 5,000 people sponsored by the lord of the Northland, add up to 10,000 people.
This is not the so-called rabble, but the elite who have been trained all year round and fought with aliens in the Northland all year round.
This kind of strength, if it is completely spread out and put on the bright side, it is not a problem to exterminate the southern rebels in a war, let alone the pitiful force above the royal territory.
Now, after several wars, the army above the royal territory has already been exhausted, and there is not much strength to guard it at all, so naturally it does not dare to stop Chen Heng.
He passed straight through this territory, not only did he not fight, but even relied on his past prestige and status as a royal knight to obtain supplies from many places and was able to march quickly.
Unconsciously, Kutu City was already in front of him, very close to Chen Heng.
"Kutu City is still the same as before, but a few days ago, His Majesty Oliman fell into a coma again, this time for most of the day, and he has not woken up. ”
In front of him, the envoy from Kutu City spoke and explained the information in Kutu City to Chen Heng.
"Please go back and tell your master, and ask him to wait in the city of Kutu, and I will soon be there to meet him. ”
Chen Heng was sure in his heart, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at the messenger in front of him and said.
Playing the messenger in front of him, Chen Heng continued to hurry, all the way forward, and rushed for a few more days.
It wasn't until a few days later, when the tall walls of Kutu City stood in front of him, that Chen Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good. ”
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked at the huge city wall in front of him, a smile on his face.
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly ordered the army to press up.
The dense army lined up forward, slowly advancing, dense at a glance, as if boundless.
This scene is undoubtedly terrifying, and the atmosphere is dignified.
"Damn it!"
On the city wall, looking at the huge army below, an old man's face was pale, and his heart was cold.
The old man was tall and dressed in full-body armor, but his right arm was empty, as if he was disabled.
If Chen Heng was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this old man, it was none other than one of the three knights under Oliman back then, Knight Maidel.
"This is Count Soda's army?"
Looking at the dense crowd of human heads below, Maidel felt a chill in his heart.
Although he no longer has the strength he had been, he has been in battle for a long time, and he can see the strength of the army below at a glance.
This is a rare elite, even in his life, he has rarely seen such a strong warrior and army.
"Your Excellency. ”
On the side, someone came from a distance, looked at Maidel and said, "They claim to have come in accordance with His Majesty's orders, let us open the gate." ”
Hearing this, Maidel's face became even more ugly.
Open the door?
As a person close to Oliman, he is not a knight who can simply cut people, so he naturally knows what the consequences of opening the gate at this moment will be.
