The Sun King's Evidence

All the more than 18,000 people in the center army began to return. The Marquis of Anchi and his lieutenant, Baron Pierre, discussed the military situation. After the entire left army was annihilated, this chivalric war was actually doomed to fail.

"After Adelaide's stupid failure, our war has failed this time." The Marquis of Anchi said bitterly. He really wished that Adelaide had died in the battle.

"There is no other way now. We must go back to support Juulson Castle. A large amount of military supplies are stored there, as well as food for the army!" Baron Pierre was worried. He said anxiously: "Yulson Castle only has a thousand defenders. With dozens of knights, they won’t be able to hold out for long in the face of the beastman army.”

"You mean we directly force a march?" The Marquis of Anchi thought for a moment and asked Baron Pierre for his opinion.

Baron Pierre nodded immediately: "We must hurry up. The army only has seven days of food left. Without Juulson's supplies, the soldiers will collapse once they run out of food."

The Marquis of Angsi nodded in agreement. His army did not have much food left. Before, they all relied on the supply of Yulsin Castle. Now they have lost their food supplies. Once there is no food, even the most powerful knights will be unable to survive. No more strength to fight.

But the blond and blue-eyed Marquis thought for a while and shook his head suddenly: "No, no, Pierre, you said, we can think of this level, can't the beastmen think of it? Do you know what tactics I thought of?"

"The beastmen will besiege Juulson's castle, but they will not attack by force. Instead, they will let Adelaide and his group of soldiers tremble and panic in the tall castle, and then... the beastmen will be very They might set up an ambush on our way back and catch us off guard!"

The Marquis of Anchi graduated from the Knights Academy in Kurona. He has very outstanding attainments in tactics. He is sensitively aware that if they want to return to the aid of Juulson Castle as soon as possible, they want it, and the beastmen also want it.

"Send a large number of scouts to make sure we know if there is an ambush nearby as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" the knights responded loudly.

Sure enough, during the march of the next two days, relying on a large number of scouts and rangers to conduct reconnaissance at all costs, the scouts discovered ambush many times, and the center army was able to advance carefully. Under the command of the Marquis of Anchi, the army marched steadily. Embarked on the return journey.

The beast king "Bloodhorn" Malas immediately realized that humans were already prepared for an ambush, so he changed his strategy and began to attack Yuerson Castle with all his strength.

Driven by the Beast King, one by one, the beastman warbands attacked Yulsin Castle. The inferior horns cut down the forest and made crude ladders. The Cyclops grabbed stones and used slings to suppress the serf archers on the tower.

Earl Adelaide was hiding anxiously inside the tower. Every scream and the sound of hard objects hitting outside would make the Earl collapse. In a daytime attack, more than a dozen knights were killed in the castle. More than two hundred serf soldiers.

Fortunately, the gate of the castle was strong enough, and the beastmen lacked powerful siege weapons. After today's strong attack, relying on the continuous sacrifice and death protection of the knights and soldiers, the beastmen retreated leaving the corpses on the ground.

At night, humans need to rest, but beastmen don't, so the anxious Earl Adelaide immediately grabbed the magic communication: "My Marquis, my Marquis, this is already the night of the third day, where are the promised reinforcements? "

"The beastmen have set up a lot of ambushes on the march! We must move forward carefully, Adelaide. The beastmen will not attack you with all their strength." The doubtful voice of the Marquis of Anchi came from the magic communication.

"No! The beastmen are attacking Youlsin with all their strength, they are attacking Youlsin with all their strength!" Adelaide shouted towards the magic communicator like crazy: "Listen, my Marquis , that’s the sound of my soldiers and I resisting!”

The roars of the beastmen and the sound of boulders hitting the stone walls were heard outside the city tower. It was obvious that after a short rest, another round of the beastmen's offensive was about to begin.

"What? Hello? Adelaide? Can you hear me? Hold on, hold on, we can arrive in one day at most!" The Marquis of Angsi immediately realized that the situation on the battlefield had changed.

The beastmen had given up on ambushing them on the road and instead stormed the castle.

So he immediately ordered the middle route army to quickly break out of camp and speed up their return to support Yuersen Castle.

"Should we notify the right army to come for support?" some knights asked.

"No need, we are enough on our own." The Marquis of Angsi was confident of annihilating the Beastman army. He did not want the Holy Grail Knight and the third son of the Red Dragon Duke to share the credit, and even if the right army returned, Reinforcement will also take several days.

Along the way, Earl Adelaide called for help one after another, each time more critical than before. The beastmen continued to attack Juulson Castle, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties.

At noon on September 13th, the sun was shining high and the sky was clear. It was a rare good weather in the forest.

The situation in Yulsen Castle has deteriorated extremely. More than half of the defenders have suffered casualties, and only a few people are still resisting. The rain of arrows released from the city walls has become very sparse. Smoke is billowing everywhere in the castle, and many city walls have been seriously damaged. , the beasts have arrived at the gate of the castle.

The wooden battering ram was hitting the city gate, making a roaring sound. On top of the city gate tower, the sergeants were instructing the serfs to shoot arrows downwards. The horned beasts holding the battering ram fell one after another after being struck by arrows. , but more horned beasts rushed up. The battering ram made of tree trunks was very crude and ineffective. The city gate was shaken by the impact, but there was no sign of being broken open.

After continuous attacks, the beastmen also suffered heavy casualties. Corpses were piled near the castle, and even the ravines were filled in.

A doomsday bull came to the side of the beast king "Bloodhorn" Malas. It panted heavily and spurted a lot of hot air from its nostrils: "The city gate... is strong, but the wood... is fragile."

"We...can't open...the city gate." The Doomsday Bull said towards the Beast King.

"Trash...trash!" the Beast King shouted angrily. It knew that it had to buy time now, and the chivalry army might appear at any time: "Give me...attack again!"

"If we attack again... we won't be able to open... the city gate." Doomsday Bull continued.

"...Uh...they're all trash." The Beast King pushed the doomsday bull away, and it grinned: "It's okay...we have...Glier."

After saying that, under the command of the Beast King, a five-meter-tall Cyclops walked out of the Beastmen's team.

"Gleer! Greer! Greer!" All the beastmen shouted the name of the Cyclops. Several beastmen placed a huge black boulder in front of the Cyclops. He screamed a few times, then lifted up the boulder and staggered towards the gate of the castle.

"Gleer! Greer! Greer!"

Naturally, Earl Adelaide in the castle heard the roar of the beastmen outside. The sweaty Earl hesitated again, picked up the magic transmitter, and then took out a gem.

After the connection was connected, before the Marquis of Anchi could speak, the Earl of Adelaide said in a heartbreaking voice: "My Marquis, the castle has reached its limit, and we have also reached our limit. There is only one person in the castle. There are more than three hundred people left alive.”

"My Marquis, my Marquis, for the sake of the lady and the king, please reach out your hand and give me a hand! Where are our reinforcements?"

There was silence in the transmitter for a while, and then the voice of the Marquis of Anchi came out.

"We are already rushing to Juulson Castle at full speed. Earl Adelaide, please hold on for the last thirty minutes. Please hold on for the last thirty minutes. We will arrive at your place soon!"

Adelaide put down the magic transmitter, and the gem was dimmed. This was the last gem in this castle, and it was the last chance to make a call.

At the gate, the Cyclops Greer stumbled to the city gate holding a black boulder in his hand.

"Gleer! Greer! Greer!"

"Uhhhhh!" The Cyclops raised the black boulder and placed it on his head. Then he hit his head hard with the force of the impact, and then fainted from the pain.

The gates finally fell in the wild beastmen's orgy.

…………

An hour later, the Marquis of Anchi finally led the knightly army to Yulsin Castle.

In the distance, Yulsen Castle was still billowing with thick smoke. The corpses of countless beastmen were scattered around the city walls, and the dirty blood dyed the river red.

"It seems we are not late." The knights stretched out their hands to wipe their sweat. They had been marching for a day and a night, and the army of more than 18,000 people finally arrived in front of Yulsen Castle.

To make matters worse, the army was running out of food. After four days of marching, the Chivalry Army now only had three days of food left.

The knightly army gradually approached Yulsen Castle, and the knights gradually smelled a different atmosphere.

Quiet.

It was so quiet.

"The situation is not right, assemble the troops and prepare to fight!" The Marquis of Anchi also realized that something was wrong. He stretched out his hand to signal the army to stop advancing, and then divided into several groups to stand by. He himself rode up to the military formation: "Adelaide? "

"Adelaide?"

Some black figures appeared on the tower, and a round ball-like object was thrown down from the tower: "Your... count... here you go!"

"ha!"

"Give it to you...Give it all to you...Give humanity...back to humanity!" The trebuchet on the castle was roughly opened, and countless gravel-like things were thrown out from the castle, towards Flying with the knightly army.

"Hide!" The knights were still shouting "Hide", but those things flew very fast. They seemed to be very light, and even if they were hit, they would not cause much damage.

"Ahhhhh!" When those "stones" fell on the crowd, many serfs couldn't help but howl in fear and backed away in fear.

It's the head! So many heads!

It's the knight's head! It's the sergeant's head! It's the heads of serfs! There are even the heads of many servants and women in the castle!

"Ahhhh!" Many heads were still oozing blood. Their temporary fear and despair brought deep pressure to the serfs. Some serfs turned around in fear and were about to run away. The entire chivalry army appeared in waves. Although the knights worked hard to suppress the fear of the serfs and boost their low morale, the serfs were still full of wavering. They did not believe the words of these knight masters.

Without the Holy Grail Knight, they were already scared to their core.

"Damn it!" The Marquis of Anchi looked at Adelaide's head that fell in front of him. He knew that the Yulson Castle had fallen.

The main force of the beastmen attacked the castle and suffered great losses. The corpses around the castle were piled up around the castle. So the Marquis led the knightly army and surrounded the remaining beastmen in the castle.

Just like that, the offense and defense reversed course.

More than 18,000 knights encamped around the Julsin Castle. In order to prevent the beastmen from coming to support, the Marquis arranged for the army of the Principality of Connet to ambush outside as a reserve force, and he personally led the knights' army. The attack on Juulson Castle begins.

"Onward! My men! For the lady and the king! For Britannia!"

"For the lady and the king! For Brittany!"

The first was the charge of the serf infantry regiment. These serfs were rushed to the battlefield by the knights. They shouted slogans and formed a dense formation under the fierce eyes of the knights. Most of the serf infantry only wore leather armor. There is no shield either.

Arrows rained down from the city wall, and the inferior horned beasts shamelessly used a large number of captured arrows. These tools used to defend the city have become their property. Thousands of inferior horned beasts are densely arranged in the castle to destroy The serious attack on the city tower caused great losses to the knightly army.

After the serfs fell in pieces, the sergeants holding shields and wearing chainmail or breastplates continued to attack, followed by the dismounted knights. For this, the Beastmen's Beastmasters were already prepared for this, and they took out the weapons from the castle armory. A large number of spears and throwing axes suppressed the knights' attack with firepower.

Throughout the day, the knightly army organized five waves of offensives. Although they penetrated the castle at the deepest point, they were all repelled by the beastmen.

The knights suffered heavy casualties, and the beastmen also left behind hundreds of corpses.

The castle that occupies the top of the mountain has large terrain undulations and rivers interspersed in it. The knights' continuous charges were repulsed. The mountains of corpses hindered the knights' attack route. The large amount of military supplies in the castle ensured that the beastmen could survive. With enough arrows, the knights have never been able to take advantage. Even if a few knights and sergeants can rush into the castle, the giant minotaurs and big horned beasts can always harvest them one by one.

From noon to sunset, the final decision on the battlefield was the Doomsday Bull and the Four-Armed Bull Demon. These terrifying large monster troops not only repelled the charge of groups of dismounted knights, but even killed all the serf archers who were covering them. The Road of Chivalry The army had to retreat in defeat.

The Marquis of Anchi began to feel bad. He first cursed the serfs for their lowliness and cowardice, and then placed his hope in a night raid. The Marquis personally selected his own elite to attack the castle in the dark.

It is a pity that the beastmen are better at night fighting than the knights. After the chivalry army approached the castle, they were forced back by a large number of arrows and javelins. The two sides continued to fight fiercely until dawn. The herds of men, horses and beasts that came out from the flanks gave way to the human army that attacked at night. A fatal blow, and the knights had to retreat again.

After a day of fighting, the beastmen lost more than 2,000 people, and the chivalry army lost more than 200 knights and more than 3,000 serf soldiers.

The battle situation reached a stalemate. The Chivalry Army surrounded the remaining more than 7,000 Beastmen troops in the castle and a small area near the castle, but they were still unable to eliminate them. The Beastmen army tried to break through under the command of the Beast King. All failed, so they made up their minds to hold on and wait for reinforcements.

The Marquis of Anchi knew that the beastmen's reinforcements must be on the way, and there was not much time left for him, and there was not much food left for him.

The chivalry army only has two days of rations left!
