Eagle Byzantium
Chapter 87: Shocking Siege (Part 2)
The five-barreled cannon was also thrown up quickly by pulling the sling. Many firecrackers and stones were also thrown down by the civilian soldiers or citizens guarding the city with arrows. Two windlass were erected on the city gate, suspended from the city gate. Two large wooden frames filled with spikes were set up, swaying slightly in the wind.
The entire city of Seleucia remained stubborn and unyielding.
The first person to get the news was Alemanburg further west. The little sunfish who was supervising the work there saw the warning beacon and immediately rode to the city on horseback and asked the local official to "Two hundred militiamen were left to guard the castle, and the other three hundred people quickly moved towards the Akum market. Even if the two vehicles and ships could not rescue the siege, they would still have to go along the sea route with the four Pamphylian light ships. Three hundred civilian troops provided cover."
The officer was afraid and hesitated, "The number of people is too small. Should we wait for news from Fort Mute and Fort Calle Adio?"
"Listen, if you wait for those two areas to take action, all your achievements will be covered up." Little Sunfish persuaded and encouraged, "Drag a newly built fire bear cannon in the big ladder workshop. On the battlefield, I will direct the shooting."
At this time, in front of the town of Coburn in the Mutt Valley, hundreds of reinforcements from the Arakhan Monastery and Fort Mutt came south and saw a chaotic mess of refugees.
"What's going on ahead?" When a reconnaissance civilian army rider ran back, the civilian army centurions asked him.
"The woods and valleys along the road are filled with people who have run away from Seleucia. Many people continue to run here. Some people say that there are about three hundred pirates who are almost chasing them here."
After hearing the news, many people in Coburn Town began to panic and chaos. Many people advocated abandoning the place and asked the civilian army to protect them and take refuge in Mutterburg.
"Folks, we can't abandon this place. We must erect a wooden fence here, because Cobain was originally the territory of the Paulists. Now most of them have gone to Melitene, but the Khitan Snow Warehouse with a large storage capacity is still here. It has not been moved. We have to protect this place, otherwise the Patron will be defeated due to lack of Khitan snow on the front line." A militia centurion waved his fist and shouted to everyone in German.
Most of the people were a little inspired, but they were still scared and guarded their livestock, vehicles and luggage there, hesitantly.
A short, fat middle-aged man in his forties stood up at this moment. He had a whip hanging from his belt, his face was ruddy and enthusiastic, and he had a loud voice. He shouted in a thick German brogue, "Fellow fellows, I am Kindschwart, I live in Seleucia. The firecracker willow farm under the city serves as an inspector. Now the centurion is right, we can't just throw away the farm property and leave. Those bastards have cut off our roots. If Seleucia If they were ruined, we would be ruined too. I have two sons and a daughter. There is an old woman. Now I leave the woman in Cobain, and my two sons and the civilian soldiers are on the front line to protect the town of Cobain. If these beasts catch us, how can there be a happy ending? Three good young men who came to Tongzhuang were caught and killed by them. What a pity. If these pirates fight hard, maybe one or two of them will be killed." After that, Kindschwart jumped down again, and a plump blond girl beside him pulled out an iron fork from his car and gave it to her. Kindschwart took it proudly and stood in front of the centurion with his short and sturdy body.
The centurion admired the farmer very much, "You remind me of my father. He was a leading figure in the village where I was born. Everyone admired his courage and integrity."
"Then did you see that my daughter is over there? Look at her buttocks and look at her breasts. Any man who marries her will be blessed - of course I also get a share of the dowry." Jin, who was leaning on an iron fork, Deschwart calmly introduced his daughter to the centurion.
"Do it, do it, do it! Back home, didn't we often kill people and kill wild animals?"
"My son was killed by them, and I want to go back and kill these bastards and beasts!"
"When we arrived in Seleucia, we had enough to eat under the Patron and Caesar!"
Many farmers from Germany, Austria, and Dalmatia began to be inspired by Kindschwart. They ignited the fighting spirit to protect their wives, children, and property, and started to move, holding pitchforks, flails, and Long sticks and sickles followed behind and on both sides of the civilian army column, roaring and rushing towards the direction where the pirates were coming.
The third place that knew of the critical situation was Fort Calleadeo, which was located in the mountains between Seleucia and Cilicia. The local chief lady Inglina immediately donated money to the garrison with Mrs. Qise. He took out 500 gold coins as a reward, took out another 500 gold coins, and mobilized 600 strong peasants to follow him to help Seleucia.
That night the news reached the new capital of Tarsus. Androdat Nicetas stood on the steps in front of the Sheriff's House, nervously and hurriedly wearing a jacket outside his armor. Behind him was his wife Adelaide (Fosse). , who had just been taken off by Anna before to reunite with her husband) was tidying up for her husband, and the servants brought the war horses from the other end of the yard.
"All six hundred soldiers of the civilian army in this county will follow me to rescue the city of Seleucia." Andodat listened to the bells from the palace and church in the city, and told the messengers, "And you will Go to Malruth Port and Castabala City immediately, tell Lord Baldwin about the situation, and ask for reinforcements from his fleet and cavalry!”
When the messenger left, Andeodate was dressed in full armor and mounted his horse. He looked at his golden-haired wife, the former Austrian princess, a little shyly, not knowing what to say.
"Go, no need for farewell words. Be a hero in the epic you wrote yourself." Adelaide stood by the pillar in front of the door, strongly encouraging her husband, "... Be careful when marching at night... Think more about how the patron supervises and commands the army..." With such a warning, Andeodate pulled the bridle and rode on the horse, left the mansion and his wife, and rushed to the battlefield in the west without hesitation, the besieged Seleucia.
When the county governor Andeodate arrived in Zephilim with 600 militiamen, Wright of the County of Sis also quickly sent 200 militia cavalrymen to catch up and meet.
Read the correct version in 1619 Book Bar!
At this time, in front of the town of Coben in the Mut River Valley, hundreds of militiamen and thousands of temporarily armed peasants actually defeated more than 300 pirates. The angry peasants also killed all the captured pirates, stripped them of their clothes, and carried their naked bodies in the team to demonstrate. Then they joined forces with the team from Kaleadiou Castle, and took advantage of the long dusk in late spring to reach the foot of the mountain of the Great Hospital and set up camp.
The anxious Zahas and Asacidus, as well as the somewhat hesitant Apsomatus, finally lost their patience and landed at the river mouth at this moment, preparing to personally supervise the battle and break the walls of Seleucia the next day.
"Gawain's cavalry is very powerful. If there is no progress, they may soon come back from Philomelon, and we will be in big trouble!" Apsomatus reminded guiltily. (To be continued ~^~)
