Main text 465 The Blood of Sarand (IV)

I received a letter telling me that I had been recommended, and I was very happy.

"Wild Wolf Marquis" frowned his fat eyebrows. Following Nilai's gaze, he saw a tall knight in the middle of the group of cavalry, wearing a dark red horn helmet. The horse under his crotch was obviously larger than the others. The cavalryman is a head taller, and his whole body The black armor shone with a dark luster in the firelight. A huge dark wolf head could be seen on the shoulder joint of the armor. The knight's giant sword in his hand was dark red, and he was full of ferocious evil, like a man who had just escaped from hell. monster

"Houssavis is the leader of the aliens, the Duke of Normandy, one of the nine most courageous knight captains, and the forward general responsible for raiding the northern territories."

Nilai looked angrily and gritted her teeth and said, "This guy has always taken pleasure in massacring civilians. As long as the territories captured by him have never left any survivors, many lords of the territories will tremble with fear as soon as they hear his name. They have not yet If you get into a fight, choose to run away.”

"It's just a show of force, but it's actually vulnerable."

Fatty snorted disdainfully. With his experienced experience, Fatty had already seen that the formation of the aliens below was full of holes. The so-called tight military formation was just a random arrangement of soldiers in a straight line.

The cavalrymen echoing on both sides also kept running back and forth without any discipline.

The smoke and dust are flying and the darkness is overwhelming. It can be said that it is full of momentum. If you encounter an ignorant lord, you will indeed be scared out of your wits. But in the eyes of an expert like Fatty, this kind of military formation without any depth defense can't even understand the most basic Even the phalanx is inferior. As long as an elite cavalry is used, it can easily overwhelm the enemy's queue.

"Hmph, if you have the ability, just win."

Hongyu, who was following Nilai, glanced at Fatty dissatisfiedly, with a puzzled look in his eyes, showing that he didn't understand why Nilai valued Fatty so much.

This girl was at odds with Fatty from the first moment she saw him. Lords like Fatty who have aristocratic status but have lost their territory are not uncommon in Salander, especially in the northern territories where foreigners are constantly harassing them. Under such circumstances, many lords chose to flee their territories in order to avoid the war. However, fearing punishment from the kingdom, many chose to flee to the mainland across the strait.

Such people are often despised among the nobility. Obviously, in Hong Yu's heart, Fatty has long been classified as a "coward". The reasons for the returning nobility are simply self-deception and nonsense. Pure excuses to hide face have long been commonplace in Lhasa City, the city closest to the strait on the ground.

"Haha." Facing the cold contempt on Hong Yu's face, Fatty just smiled indifferently. Arguing with this little girl would only lose his face as the God of War in Virginia, but this look fell into Hong Yu's eyes, thinking that Fatty felt guilty. He raised his face and said to Nilai next to him, "We can't just sit back and wait for death. The best way now is to take advantage of the opportunity that the enemy has not yet attacked the city and immediately organize the entire city to evacuate by boat from the sea."

"Pfft" Hearing Hong Yu's suggestion, Fatty almost fell off the battlement. He stared at Hong Yu as if he was seeing a monster. It's the best. You can still have such a proposal at this time.

"Evacuate by boat now. Don't let the aliens attack the city. The city itself will be destroyed due to riots. Is your head a pig's head?" The anger in Fatty's eyes made Hongyu hide behind Nilai unconsciously, revealing only a pair of red eyes. Eyes, looking faintly at Fatty

"You, you are not a mirror grinder, are you?" Fatty looked at Hongyu behind Nilai with bulging eyes. He couldn't help but think of a possibility in his mind, and his body shuddered. Hongyu had such a caring attitude as a little bird. The ambiguous look he looked at Nilai made Fatty naturally think of the word "homosexual"

"What is a mirror grinder?" Nilai turned around and asked with bright eyes.

"It's nothing, it's just an interesting game I saw on the opposite continent. It's usually performed by two women in a specific place." Fatty glanced at Hongyu meaningfully.

Hongyu's cheeks were slightly red, she lowered her head and changed the subject.

"Do you think that the Wild Wolf Marquis arrived on time? The nobles in the city had just attacked Nilai in the hall, and the Wild Wolf Marquis arrived on time. If Nilai hadn't stabilized the situation, I'm afraid that Now that the entire city of Lhasa is in chaos, who has the guts to resist the aliens?"

"I also think this is too coincidental." Nilai looked solemn, as if she had remembered something. "Just now in the hall, Duke Fedoso, the kingdom's special envoy, and the three major families in the combined city wanted to attack me and asked me to hand over the refugees on the grounds that they were disturbing the nobles. Out of the power of the lords, the patriarch of the Wei Ke family left first on the pretext of urgent matters and did not come back later."

Judging from the time, it was the moment when the alien army landed on the coast. If all this was not a coincidence, it would be terrible. Tens of thousands of people in the city would all be massacred by the aliens. "Nilai's face changed slightly, thinking Possible terrible situation, clenched fists, lips bitten with bloody marks

"Coincidence, how could it be possible?" Fatty looked confused, pointing at the alien troops who were still running back and forth outside the city, creating momentum, and said in a deep voice, "To attack a well-defended city, the best way is to suddenly launch a strong attack before the city is ready. Only in this way can it be broken with one blow,

But until now, the thousands of troops under the city are just running back and forth, neither forming siege squads nor building siege equipment. It seems that they want to create a tense atmosphere and make the city chaotic without fighting, so that they can attack again when the time comes. If you enter the city, you can get twice the result with half the effort. I can guarantee that someone will definitely tip off the news. Otherwise, how could they know that Nilai is being besieged by the nobles in the city?"

"What should we do now? The foreigners must have known that there are no more than a thousand guards in the entire city. Even if you include your army, the number will not exceed 4,000.

By the time they figure out the situation, it's time to attack the city. At that time, chaos will really break out in the city. Those refugees are already panicking to the extreme. Once the troops in the city are drained, there will definitely be chaos. "Listen, Upon seeing Fatty's analysis, Nilai's face turned livid and she wished that the traitor would be executed immediately.

"Haha, it's just 5,000 mediocre infantry, what's the problem?" Fat Bu Nu replied with a smile. "When you attack the city, you only need to mobilize the private soldiers of the nobles in the city. These talents are really The biggest hidden danger is now that the aliens are pressing down on the territory. They dare not move without permission. Once the aliens retreat, these nobles will definitely jump out again. At that time, the situation will not be so easy to deal with. "

"This, I'm just afraid..." Nilai looked ugly, glanced at Fatty with watery eyes, paused and said, "There are more than 60 nobles in the city, and they have five to six hundred private soldiers. Although most of them are retinues who have never participated in the war, they are all warriors after all, and many of them are nobles. If they are mobilized to defend the city, I am afraid that the big nobles will be the first to cause trouble in the city."

"What I want is to make them cause trouble." Fatty looked at Nilai's hesitant expression and said confidently, "While the aliens haven't figured out the situation in the city, use the opportunity of my army to enter the city to capture them. This is the only way." , so that future troubles can never be avoided.”

"Is this...?" Nilai's face turned pale, hesitating for a moment.

"Time is urgent. If you continue to interrupt, you will suffer chaos." Fatty interrupted, looked around, lowered his head and said solemnly, "This matter is settled like this."

"Hongyu, take my guards with you. In the name of Marquis Nilai, immediately mobilize the private troops of the nobles in the city to the city wall." Fatty turned his head and suddenly shouted to Hongyu behind Nilai.

"Me?" Hongyu was stunned when she was called. She looked at Fatty in surprise and then at Nilai next to her.

"Do you still want the scene in the council hall to happen again to Nilai?" Fatty looked at Hong Yu and said a stern sentence. A mountain of majesty made Hong Yu's body tremble. That unquestionable tone is like the real mastermind of this city

"I understand." Hongyu glanced at Nilai with complicated eyes, then turned around and went down to the city with the eight guards behind him.

In a corner of Lhasa city. The thief Oliver shrank his head, looked around cautiously, and then quickly crossed the street.

As a little man born in the slums of Port Lazar, the thin Oliver is less than 1.6 meters tall and weighs no more than 50 kilograms. This always annoyed him. Because of his thinness, he was unable to join the club like other companions and rely on his fists to become popular and drink hot food. He is just a thief. A thief on the outskirts of a society who has to pay half of his income every day.

However, Oliver's life is much better than that of other thieves. After all, he has a beautiful sister. And his brother-in-law is a member of the Fick family in the city.

With the care of his brother-in-law, Oliver's business is much easier than other golden fingers. On the streets that his brother-in-law was looking after, no other golden finger dared to compete with him for business.

As long as Oliver is targeting the target, he can basically succeed. The superb technology itself and several busy commercial streets with priority have kept Oliver's income stable.

Especially the recent large influx of refugees has greatly enriched him and his brother-in-law, and Oliver has always been very content. The daily income, except for the payee, is all saved.

Oliver knew that although his brother-in-law was very kind to his siblings, he was just licking blood with a knife. Maybe one day. So, Oliver wanted to save some money. If one day, he would At least I can support my sister.

Today, the Garden Street in the middle of the commercial avenue in the center of Lhasa City is very quiet. It was originally crowded with chaotic refugees. It was the most prosperous area in the city.

Ever since the lord opened the city, it has become the place with the most refugees.

At this moment, not a single refugee could be seen, and they seemed to have disappeared without a trace. Groups of stern guards walked through the streets from time to time. This unusual smell made Oliver carefully hide himself in a dense place with trees.

Today, his brother-in-law has warned him. Don't do business. Because something happened. Although he didn't say it clearly, Oliver guessed from his brother-in-law's serious face and rare cautious expression that this matter must be big, because Oliver saw that his brother-in-law even took out the armor he used to wear as a mercenary. , and the long sword that is said to have killed three people.

Occasionally, there were a few wild dogs barking, and soon there was a howl, and there was no more life. The silence in the dark night was terrifying.

Oliver always listened to his brother-in-law, and he didn't want to cause any trouble to his brother-in-law on this messy day. original. He doesn't want to go to the streets. However, my sister is sick. Doctors in the city are not available to people from the ghetto. They only treat nobles and rich people

Oliver can only go to his brother-in-law now, hoping that through his connections, he can hire a herbalist and spend a small amount of money to grab some grass roots and bark and boil it into bitter juice to drink.

Oliver walked as fast as he could. As long as you cross the street in front, you will find his brother-in-law's home. It is the lower corner of the noble district. It is where the nobles of Lhasa City raise their private soldiers. Apart from the noble district in the city, it is the best area of ​​Lhasa City.

Suddenly, Oliver stopped and saw hundreds of private soldiers armed with weapons and wearing mail, confronting a dozen soldiers at the gate of the villa area in the distance.

At the door of the gate, a young beauty wearing mail armor was holding a token high.

"Marquis Nile's order is that all private soldiers in the city, regardless of family, will go to the city to defend themselves. Anyone who dares to disobey will be executed on the spot." A delicate voice full of murderous intent floated into Oliver's ears through the dark night. ,

"Go away, little girl. Apart from my master, I don't recognize any bullshit marquis." A private soldier laughed.

"Yes, yes, it's okay to defend the city if you want. You can pay everyone a night's sleep." There was a burst of laughter from the group of private soldiers, and all kinds of unpleasant laughter and curses were carried by the wind. Even Oliver felt that he couldn't hear it.

"Forget it, Ruby Attendant, talking to these guys is just a waste of time." An officer wearing black armor came to the beautiful woman's side.

"Tap, tap," a rapid and weird rumbling sound suddenly sounded from the other end of the street. With the light of the street corner, Oliver quickly turned sideways and hid his thin body in the shadow of the corner of the street, only to see a series of fast black shadows. , running through the streets with the howling wind

"This, what is this?" Oliver looked at the street in stunned silence. Countless tall cavalry in black armor, like demons emerging from the night, galloped past with murderous intent, and the sound of the wind they brought was full of... There was a faint smell of blood, and heavy footsteps followed closely behind. Oliver took advantage of the opportunity when the flames dimmed to take a curious glance outside.

"Something big is going to happen." Seeing the cold light reflected from the rows of sharp spears under the firelight at the street entrance, Oliver shivered all over.

I saw a black mass of heavy infantry, holding large shields and spears full of spikes, marching in neat steps towards the retinue area at the end of the street.

The heavy, breathless pressure made Oliver feel a chill running down his spine.

These are the heavy infantry of the Dillens family. Since the destruction of the main force of the Dillens at sea, the Dillens family has not reorganized the Dillens' unique battleship heavy infantry in order to show their sincerity in joining Samur. This time they received After Fat's order, a thousand people were drawn out from the remaining elites. These warriors, who had once carried the glory of the Dillons family, held back their strength this time and wanted to compete with the scimitar warriors of the Hulin tribe.

"Break down the door and kill anyone who disobeys."

The officer in black armor pointed to the large iron gate in front.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The entire row of Dillens soldiers shouted in unison, ignoring the private soldiers crowding in front and blocking the door, and pushed forward.

Most of the private soldiers are small nobles who have never been on the battlefield. Fighting in the city is okay to fill the scene, but if they really go to the battlefield, they will be a pot of paste. I have seen such a formation there.

The invisible murderous intent of the Dylans soldiers and the bloody killing sound immediately frightened the private soldiers at the entrance of the villa area, their faces turned pale, and they retreated continuously. As a row of sharp spear points pierced the body of the front private soldier, The explosion started from behind, a row of spears thrust out, and a row of corpses fell down. The chaotic private soldiers were squeezed by the dense forest of Dylan's spears and had to gather into a ball. Within ten minutes, Most of the private soldiers who were blocking the door fell down.

"We surrender, surrender"

The private soldiers looked at the corpses on the ground in front of them. They were so frightened by the strong blood that they were like chaff. They looked at the dense forest of guns around them with extremely fearful eyes.

"Kill no one alive"

The black-armored officer looked at the few dozen people left and groaned. Countless spears pierced the private soldiers' bodies from all directions, and bright red blood spurted out from their bodies with wide eyes.

"Who are you, you..."

Oliver heard a burst of chaotic shouting from another courtyard. Soon, there was a sound of metal collision, and more than a dozen screams were heard.

There was a crisp "pop" sound, and the black-armored infantrymen who had just entered were already escorting a person, covered in blood, and dragged him out of the villa.

"Yes, it's His Excellency Marquis Weike"

Oliver recognized this man through the firelight outside the villa. His eyes were round and he was so frightened that he did not dare to take a breath. Marquis Weike was one of the three most important families in Lazar City and a leading figure among the nobles. But now he More like a dead dog waiting to be slaughtered,

"Marquis Nile, the nobles expressed collective opposition to the order to mobilize private soldiers to defend the city. As a last resort, my subordinates could only follow the military order and deal with it in a timely manner."

Hongyu came out of the city wall corridor with a pale face, stopped in front of Nilai, looked at Nilai's strange expression, and reported the report with a respectful look.

"Has it been dealt with in time?" Nilai looked stunned for a moment, and suddenly she was shocked. She looked at her personal attendant Hongyu with different eyes, as if she had met him for the first time.

"Yes, in order to avoid possible turmoil, these unstable points will only lead to death." Hongyu nodded with an affirmative expression, and there was fatigue in her replying voice. The bloody scene just now was still lingering in her mind. , 531 human lives were instantly turned into corpses in a pool of blood. .. h
