The city of Gavia, as the most important city on the border between the Louis Empire and the Charles Empire, is now a scene of chaos.
Many sergeants who were lucky enough to escape from the burned military forts, dragging their tired bodies and holding weapons that were too damaged to look like, were walking on the once neat but now chaotic streets of Gavia, looking for food and warmth. Find solace.
Some of them had numb expressions, as if their whole family had just died, and some were still in a state of panic. Even if they were controlled by Gavia's security sergeants, they were still hysterically preaching the terror of the Thorn Flower Knights.
The unforgettable fear revealed in the slightly crazy eyes deeply shocked the soldiers and civilians of Gaivia City.
The Louis Empire is the country that pays the most attention to appearance among the three major human empires. The people living here are also used to maintaining their own image. They are so accustomed to it that it is deeply rooted in their bones. Here, accusing a Louis man of having unsightly buttons on his shirt is worse than Pointing at his nose and cursing his family members was even more difficult for them to accept.
It is really unimaginable for the soldiers and civilians of Galvia City to make a Lewis man, or to be precise, a Lewis sergeant, cry or shout hysterically in public. The Knights of Thorn Flowers Should it be three heads and six arms, or green face and fangs?
However, all this does not prevent the soldiers and civilians of Gaivia City from forming a unified understanding that the Knights of Thorns are terrible.
Among the soldiers and civilians of Gaivia City, such a statement slowly began to spread.
The thorn flower is the flower of blood and the flower of demons. Wherever the thorn flower blooms, there will be a bloody storm!
With the continuous fall of the Louisian border military stronghold, as more and more soldiers who survived by chance gathered in the city of Gavia, and as more and more people fled, this kind of talk spread more and more widely. Going deeper and deeper.
When the soldiers and civilians of Gavia City mention the name of the Knights of Thorns, they will no longer simply think that this Knights is just a group of more than 500 people organized by a once down-and-out family in the Charles Empire. The Knights have nothing to do with me.
Rather, the name of the Knights of Thorns will be associated with words such as terror, blood, and killing.
Like a dark cloud, wrapped in violent storms, thunder and lightning, it slowly but surely approaches my life.
Faced with such a situation, Count Gilbers, the lord of Gaivia City, was overwhelmed and had no choice but to do anything.
As the highest-ranking general in the Louis Empire on the border, Count Gilbers is more aware of the terror of the Knights of Thorns than the ordinary soldiers and civilians in Gavia.
Count Gilbert, even if he dies, he will never forget the deep impression left on him by the Knights of Thorns.
That was when the thirteen thousand Louisians failed to invade Charles's empire. Harvey, a fool with a broken arm, came to Gavia City alone to ask for help. He ordered all the cavalry in Gavia City and went to rescue Darcy. The third-generation first-in-line heir of the family.
Gilbert will never forget how Gergill, the first heir of the third generation of the Darcy family, was killed by a thorn when he was about to escape from the pontoon bridge on the Pennesian River. The owner was shot to death with one arrow.
That look of disbelief before death often appeared in my midnight dreams together with the three thorn flowers competing to bloom, waking me up.
After that, he organized the cavalry of Gavia City to attack the pontoon bridge at least three times, but each time he was shot back by the overwhelming arrows of the Thorn Flower Knights.
Until now, Count Gilbert has not figured out why the archers of the Knights of Thorns were able to shoot arrows across the wide Pennesian River. In the end, they were so forced that even the cavalry of the city of Gaivia could not approach. The banks of the Pennesian River.
And during the whole process, the bald devil who killed Gegil Darcy with one arrow did not even release another arrow, but just watched quietly with his arms crossed.
Whenever he thinks of those ancient and innocent eyes, Count Gilbert feels a shudder.
Afterwards, Count Gilbert finally successfully crossed the Pennesian River after the Knights of Thorns retreated, but if he had to choose again, Count Gilbert would definitely not cross the river.
Feather arrows, throwing spears, lances, heavy hammers various weapons created a feast of killing on the north bank of the Pennesian River.
Count Gilbert threw more than a thousand lives on the territory of Charles's empire, drawing a shocking conclusion to Louis' invasion.?.
Until now, Roland's words when he left were still clearly echoing in Earl Gilbert's ears.
There is no need to dismantle this pontoon bridge. A year later, I will enter the land of Louis Empire from here
In fact, Count Gilbert has been planning how to move away from the city of Gavia within a year, which is the first to be affected.
Because he really doesn¡¯t want to face Roland or the Knights of Thorns anymore!
"However, Count Gilbert never expected it.
The thorn flower has arrived.
When he first learned the news, Gilbert cursed loudly.
Do you still have the dignity and credibility of a strong person, or even a warrior? ?
It was said to be a year, why did it come in less than a month! ?
And, it¡¯s still so unstoppable!
In just nine days after crossing the Pennesian River and entering the territory of the Louis Empire, the Knights of Thorns basically destroyed all the military fortresses on the border of the Louis Empire!
From the map hanging in the war room of the city lord's palace, it can be easily seen that only the city of Gaivia is still under the control of the Louis Empire. The remaining military cities have been destroyed by the thorn flower without exception. The raging fire of the Knights was all destroyed.
It is self-evident that the next target of the Thorn Flower Knights is Gaivia City.
Having come to this conclusion early, even when the Thorn Flower Knights first started to invade, Count Gilbers had already arranged for people to ask for help from Louis' imperial capital.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????The four words "stick to it and wait for help" came waiting for me.
Whenever he sees these four big characters, Count Gilbers has a strong urge to curse.
Stick to it! ?
Why hold on! ?
The Thorn Flower Knights defeated twenty-seven large and small cities in the Lewis Border Army in just nine days!
It is obvious that the Thorn Flower Knights have effective siege methods. Looking at the meaning in front of you, it is entirely possible that the legend of Roland's three arrows breaking the city is true!
Count Gilbert could guess something like this without even asking the sergeant who ran back!
If Roland of the Feng clan really led the Thorn Flower Knights to the city of Gaivia, with the current panic situation in Gaivia city, it would not be necessary to break the city with three arrows, just a single feathered arrow would be enough. Blast open the gate of Gavia City and everyone¡¯s defenses!
At that time, let alone holding on, if you can make all the soldiers and civilians in the city run out, it will be considered a great merit!
Just when Earl Gilbert was in a state of distress, the Louis Empire actually sent a new order.
We try our best to protect the food and grass in the city of Gaivia, but it is really not possible. Even if they are all destroyed, they cannot fall into the hands of the Thorn Flower Knights.
Completely ignoring the current situation of Gaivia City, and even asking for the protection of food when the situation cannot be achieved! ?
What does it mean, "If it really doesn't work, even if it's all destroyed, it can't fall into the hands of the Thorn Flower Knights"! ?
Do you want him, Count Gilbert, as the top military commander of the Louis Empire's border guards, to issue an order to destroy all the food in Gaivia City on his own? ?
What should the soldiers and civilians in Gaelya do? ?
Hungry! ? Or surrender to the Knights of Thorns! ?
After an unknown fire broke out, Count Gilbert sat feebly on the chair, propped his head on one hand, and closed his eyes in pain and helplessness. His frowning eyebrows told the endless struggle and unwillingness in his heart.
Even if he didn't want to, Count Gilbert had to admit that the timing of Roland's pinch was too accurate.
Every military stronghold and city that had just been captured had just been collected for this year's summer grain, but had not had time to transport it to the hinterland of Louis.
The accuracy of the attack time of the Knights of Thorns made Count Gilbert once wonder whether there were countless spies from the Charles Empire in the Louis Empire, informing the Knights of Thorns led by Roland!
But Earl Gilbert overturned his guess, because even he, the top military and administrative leader of the border guard, didn¡¯t know that army, let alone the guys from within the Louis Empire.The village has completed the collection of food, but there is none in the city.
As for why the Knights of Thorns knew about it, Gilbert thought about it for several days, but couldn't figure it out. In the end, he could only come to a very irresponsible conclusion: How did I know! Just do whatever you love
The most critical question now is, the Knights of Thorns are coming, what to do! ?
Gilbert fell into his favorite seat and rubbed his brow bone vigorously with his right hand. A slight pain arose, which slightly suppressed the irritability in his heart.
Opening his eyes, he looked intently at the full map of the Lewis border that had been enlarged fifty times. The black color used to represent the destroyed military stronghold and the red color representing the direction of the Thorn Flower Knights were mixed together. Count Gilbert felt that it was a kind of deep blood that was approaching the city of Gavia represented in green and was about to devour it.
Faced with all this, Count Gilbert is powerless!
"General!"
The adjutant's voice interrupted, Earl Gilbert's futile thinking and pale feeling of powerlessness.
"They are coming"
