Main text 227 Dustan's transaction (Part 2)

The pure white snow fell from the sky like large tracts of goose feathers, covering the Castle River and the bare tree stumps in circles and bulges. Like scars all over the earth. The thin sheepskin tents of the coalition forces were rustled by the strong wind in the open field, and the thin felt blankets could not resist the biting cold wind. The soldiers could only huddle together like mice, using body heat to keep each other warm, with incomplete weapons. and armor discarded in the corner

On the second day of the siege, all the forests within a thirty-mile radius that could make fire had been cleared.

The coalition soldiers had to be able to transport firewood from the Tatton Forest outside and inside. In order to build enough siege vehicles, there was no fire in the cold night, and being able to drink a sip of hot soup was a luxury in heaven.

A large number of soldiers suffered from frostbite. Without enough heat and herbs, ten or even dozens of frozen corpses could often be found in the coalition tents in one morning.

The armor on his body and the corpse were frozen together, completely inseparable, and finally the coalition gave the order. All soldiers must take off their mail armor to sleep

Such a bad situation not only happened to the coalition forces, but also to the Lod people on the opposite side. The two sides were like wounded beasts, staring at each other, letting the wounds on their bodies drip with blood.

The firewood stored in the castle has long been used up, and the wooden supports in the castle have been chopped into wooden blocks for heating. After half a month of repeated fighting, Bloomsburg was beyond recognition after being hit by a trebuchet. The towering arrow tower has collapsed. The ruins, the walls of the battlements were dyed red and black with blood due to the tug of war between the two sides.

At the beginning, both sides collected the corpses of those killed in the battle in a very orderly manner, but later there were too many dead. Then he lost the mood to collect corpses, and tens of thousands of corpses were piled up under the castle.

The severe cold froze them together. They were life-and-death rivals in life, but they were brothers who relied on each other in death. The water thrown down by the Lud people from the top of the city completely turned them into "frozen soil"

It was piled up to a height of more than ten meters, like the black base of a castle, brushing away the broken snow on the surface. You can also see the outlines of dark faces. Both sides call this place the Wall of the Dead.

The warm sunshine pierces the clouds and spreads the meager heat to the earth.

These three forces were the main forces in the coalition, with a total of 60,000 people. They were also the three forces with the most casualties in the Bloomsburg War of Attrition.

In the past few days, the coalition forces have stopped attacking the city, and soldiers have begun digging pits and erecting fences to build defense lines.

The hundreds of thousands of coalition troops were like locked beasts, and the protracted siege consumed the strength of the Lud people. It also put the coalition forces into an embarrassing situation. Both advancement and retreat became a big problem.

In front, the Rohde defense line remained strong. Three days ago, two more regiments of Rohde came from the east, which gave way to the coalition's plan to occupy Bloomsburg. It has completely become an impossible mission, and now it is no longer a scarred legion in front of the coalition forces. But a total of 80,000 high-morale elites,

recent. The Rode, who were ready to move, launched small groups of troops to counterattack from time to time, forcing the coalition forces to push back their defense line.

The current situation is very difficult. No matter in terms of numbers or war situation, the Rode people have put on a posture of decisive battle. The two retinue cavalry flag regiments of the third knights of Ruidian entered behind the coalition forces in the name of assisting in the battle. The town of Sodorens is like a sharp sword hanging high, which may fall on the heads of those who retreat at any time.

"Everyone! We can't go on like this! If we continue to waste like this, we will all become the pedestal of Bloomsburg!" The dull voice of Kujit Chief Officer Zigosa echoed in the tent.

"We are here to make a fortune, to make the Lod people tremble in fear. But now what else do we get besides death? Everyone can see that the Lod people's counterattack will soon destroy us like a storm. No one wants to The only way to die is to fight!"

The light in the big tent was very dark, there was no fire, and it was as dry and cold as an ice cave. The white smoke of the cold air spurted out from the noses of the silent people around. Opposite him sat the Marquis Badker of Dorok, sprinkled with Meiqi Ebony, the elder of the Tu clan. Genevieve, chief of the Vedic people,

Zigosa looked at several silent leaders, his expressions changed strangely several times, and then he continued to provoke.

"Everyone can see that the Myrdians are obviously favoring the Vecians. Their troops always hide behind to enjoy the good things. But we are trembling in the cold night. How many brave warriors have not died from the enemy's spears?" But fell under the cold night! As protectors of soldiers, should we allow this sorrow to continue? "

"You are telling the truth. The Vekians have indeed gone too far! That bastard Tiltnatis won't even spare us the life money of our Shamandu warriors." The elder of the Shamandu tribe, Meqi Wumu, could no longer suppress it. He suppressed the anger in his heart and nodded indignantly.

, just

"Every time one of us dies, one-third of the compensation fee will be deducted by him! Last time I went to the head of Amicia to report this problem, and the fat pig filed a counter-suit, saying that it was me Withholding compensation, if it weren’t for the Gangerdian people protecting him, I would have led this greedy fat pig away long ago.

"Yes, and that bullshit Stian family." This time it was Vedic Chief Genevieve, who also said with an angry face. "They even buttoned up our soldiers' cotton-padded clothes! Let our warriors die in the cold wind. "

The leaders seemed to have opened up their chat boxes and listed several evil deeds of the Vekians in charge of logistics. The more they talked, the more excited they became. The angry outcry against the Vekians almost filled the tent.

"Everyone! After all, Wikia is our friendly army. It is unfair for us to comment behind our back like this. Finally, the honest man Badker couldn't sit still and said in a deep voice

"At least Mr. Dustan of Wikiia is a truly fair man! Not only did he not deduct our food, but in many cases he secretly over-allocated us. We should be grateful to such a fair and kind man! Instead of comparing him with those greedy people Together, this is unfair to truly fair people!”

"This is the truth! Dustan is a good young man! He is a truly fair man!" Mechi Ebony, a shamandu man, always speaks straightforwardly and nodded in agreement. The fat man is the only lord of Vekia whom he likes.

Seeing that the fire was almost done, Chigosa turned his eyes strangely, looked at the approval glances of the leaders around him, and said in a hesitant voice, "This time I was entrusted by Lord Dustan to come to discuss something with everyone. I wonder if you are willing to do it? Personally, I think this is our only way to survive.

"Dustan's request?" Mechi Ebony looked stunned. Everyone knew that the fat man taught the Kugits a lot on the first day he arrived. Now when he heard Chigosa say this, he couldn't help but ask, "You Kugits Aren’t you always at odds with the Vekians? Why are you doing something for the Vekians this time?”

"If Elder Mechi Ebony said this, he doesn't understand us Kugits very well." Chigosa looked embarrassed, wiped his dirty nose unnaturally with his hand, and shook his head mysteriously.

"We Kujit people are the eagles of the prairie and the galloping wild horses, but we also admire the real heroes. Although the Falcon Marquis Dustan once had trouble with us, he also used his own strength to The powerful army under his command proves that he is The Vekiya Falcon is no less than our Kugit eagle, and we Kugit people have more respect from the bottom of our hearts, not to mention those cowardly Vekiya who are both fair and kind! No one is even worthy of carrying Lord Dustin’s shoes!”

"That's true. I heard that Dustan's reputation in Wikiia is even greater than that of the royal family." Mechi Ebony's words were very simple, but straightforward and lovely. Mechi Ebony looked at Chigosa and asked, "Tell me, what good suggestions does that boy Dustan have? Without violating the tribal oath, look at what he did last time." For giving me 10,000 more loads of grain, I will help the Miao Erdians even if they fight against them!"

"This. Zigosa took out a secret letter from his arms with an embarrassed expression and handed it to the highest-ranking Elder Mechi Ebony. "Lord Dustan's requirements are all written on it. I don't know what to say at the moment. Please take a look for yourself, Great Elder."

"So mysterious?" Meqi Wumu took the letter and glanced at it with sharp eyes. He suddenly stopped, his eyes risked,

"That's true.

"Meiqi Ebony opened her mouth in disbelief, which made the others confused. They didn't expect that the always straightforward Meqi Ebony would be so hesitant.

"Cough! Cough!" After a while, Meqi Wumu returned to normal. He covered his mouth with his hands and coughed several times to cover up the embarrassment and abruptness on his face, and sighed freely.

"Dustan, this guy is really brave! It seems that we are all old, and now it is really the world of young people."

Mechi Ebony handed the letter to Natviv, the curious Vedic chief beside him.

"Tell that boy Dustan that this deal includes us Shamandu people!" There was an unspeakable excitement in Meqi's ebony voice, and he clenched his skinny fingers. "It's time to settle the matter with the Miao Erdian people." Account settled."

"And we Vedic people!" Natviv, who was next to him, didn't even finish reading the letter before he excitedly added,

Natviv was already shaken when he heard that he could take revenge on the abominable Myridian people. He had only read half of the letter. Natviv was thorough enough to Xiang Meqi Ebony. This game was really big enough. I guess the Myridian people It's so fun to be played until you vomit blood! So enjoyable!

"I don't have to watch it!"

The honest man Badker stood up, dusted himself off, and did not take the letter from Natviv's hand.

"I believe in Lord Dustan's fairness, no matter what happens! We Dorok people will never back down."

, Zhengfenbibei

Although Badeker is honest, he is not stupid. The three giants have already expressed their opinions. Naturally, the weakest Dorok people have no choice but to follow the crowd. In this situation, without the help of other forces, no matter who it is, it will be inevitable.
