The stones were thrown from the catapults and hit the city wall hard. The people in Kalshitalan felt as if the ground was shaking. Mecklenburg's army seemed to fall from the sky and appeared outside the town through the river. , but the West Frankish lords along the way did not sound the alarm at all, nor did they make any gesture of support. "Why? No lord is willing to support us?" The mayor of Karlstalland, wearing a leather vest and a helmet with a dome and a wide rim, looked at the swarming Mecklenburg soldiers surrounding the city from the tower. . "Has the king given up on us?" The general next to the mayor said with a pale face. "No matter what, this is our own city, and the crossbowmen guard the city walls." The mayor said angrily. The people of Kalshitalan are very stubborn. "Yes, mayor." Carl Shilan's soldiers held crossbows in their hands. This was the weapon used by the French king to support them. With this weapon, they held on to the city wall, preventing the army sent by King Henry from occupying the city. Now they are convinced that they We can also rely on this weapon to defend our homeland again. "The morale is very high." Aruode stood in front of the siege camp and stared at the soldiers of Kalshitalan on the city wall. Most of these soldiers were apprentices of the city guilds. Many of them were familiar with weapons and were definitely not ordinary. Conscription. "But, we have enough siege weapons." Ron said standing next to Arold. "Are you going to attack by force? Then I'll let the knights get ready." Yves, covered in chainmail and blouse, hobbled to the other side of Arod and said to him. "Don't be busy now. Let the siege equipment slowly destroy the city wall defense. The lives of our soldiers are precious." Aruode said nonchalantly. Although the morale of the Kalshitalans was high, in fact it had no effect. , they were not fully prepared for a sudden attack, and they had no strong reinforcements from the outside. "It's up to you." Yves took a deep breath. He hated the boring castle life. Only on the battlefield is his destiny. In the next few days, the Mecklenburg army sat in the camp and watched the catapults dismantle the walls of Carlsland, and every time the Carlslanders demolished the houses in the city. When they tried to block the gap, the crossbow bolts rained down on their heads. Later, the people of Kalshitalan found that the cost was even greater, so they had to give up the attempt to block the gap. "Oh, look at that unlucky guy. He was shot through by a crossbow." The soldiers of the Mecklenburg Army stood outside the camp. Now watching the siege troops' performances every day has become a program. Whenever Carl Shita comes, When Lan's soldiers fell off the wall, there was a burst of cheers in the camp. "These bastards, do they really think they can capture the city with siege equipment?" Yves walked in the camp and said dissatisfiedly to his younger brother beside him. , "The person we are waiting for will be here soon, and it will be time for you to show off your skills." Aruode laughed and said to Yves. ????????????????????????? Coincidentally, as soon as Arold finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves was heard from the back of the camp, and a gorgeously dressed French nobleman was seen riding a horse, coming to the camp of the Mecklenburg Army with several followers. "Look. Our guide is here." Arod looked at the figure of the French noble and said to Yves. The city wall of Karstalan is tall and strong, but according to the revelations of the French nobles, the city wall has a fatal weakness, that is, the section of the city wall to the west was actually built in a hurry. Not only is the wall weak, but also there are There is very little defense. "This is where we will use the main force to divert the enemy's attention from the front. Count Yves will lead the Teutonic Knights as a surprise attack from here." Arod said to the generals in the pre-war meeting. In front of them was a wooden statue. Simulated sand table, corrected by French nobles. "Just do it. I can't wait any longer." Yves said eagerly. "Boom~." With a loud noise, the city wall of Kalshitalan fell down like a toddling baby. The soldiers of the Mecklenburg Army, who had long been recharged, filed in. The soldiers of Kalshitalan They desperately tried to resist the enemy's attack. The two sides fought fiercely at the narrow gap in the wall, and the Kalshitalan people also fought tooth and nail to defend their homeland. ¡°Hold on, hold on, never let the damn enemy loot our home.¡± The mayor of Kalshitalan waved the sword in his hand, and shouted to his soldiers with a face full of smoke. "Whoosh." At this moment, the catapults of the Mecklenburg Army from outside the city wall threw burning earthenware oil cans into the city. Flames and thick smoke burst into flames instantly, and people in the city screamed and made noises, as if the end had come. "It's our turn." Yves and the Teutonic Knights were hiding in the woods. When he saw thick smoke rising from the city, he put on his helmet and said to the people around him.??. Five carriages were driven out of the woods, and redesigned cyclone cannons were set up on the vehicles. After the cyclone cannon was fixed, the ropes thrown were changed from human power to rotating axes and stirred by animal power. The cannonballs were also used by craftsmen in the smelting base. They are carved into circles. "Ready, fire." Following the order, the artillery shells were fired from the cyclone cannon, hitting the weakly defended city wall hard. Only a few loud booms were heard, and the superficial city wall collapsed into several pieces. . "Come on~." The Teutonic knights on foot, wearing chainmail, white blouses, and barrel-style fully enclosed helmets, holding sharp-bottomed shields and swords in their hands, slowly moved towards the gap, and on the city wall The surviving Kalshitalan soldiers fired one after another, but they were all blocked by the knight's shields and chain mail. "It's over, we can't stop it anymore, the city is broken." The general of Kalshitalan looked pale. He walked down the city wall in despair, and subconsciously returned to his mansion while pretending to fall. "What happened?" The general's family members were waiting in the living room in fear. They looked at the disgraced general and asked him involuntarily. "We are finished, God has given up on us." The general looked at his lovely wife and young children. He knew what would happen to them after the city was broken, so he pulled out his sword, pierced his wife's chest, and hacked her to death with his backhand. His own children, his family screamed. "Are you crazy?" The general's father, with blood pouring from his forehead, held his hand tightly and shouted with all his strength. "Ugh." The general looked at the blood flowing on the floor and the bodies of his wife and children. He dropped the long sword in his hand, pulled out the dagger from his waist and stabbed it into his heart. The once prosperous city is now burning like a purgatory. Mayor Kalshitalan stood in the street and looked around, his eyes staring blankly. The Kalshitalans were fighting with the soldiers of the Mecklenburg Legion, but their numbers were getting smaller and smaller. The Teutonic Knights, who were as precise as killing machines, were also surrounding them. ¡°Where are my generals, where are my soldiers, I, uh, I~.¡± The mayor roared loudly. However, the surroundings were extremely noisy. A wooden building on the street burned and collapsed. One end of the beam and wall masonry pinned the mayor underneath. "Woooooo~." The Mecklenburg soldiers on the city wall blew their horns, and the flag of the Mecklenburg Legion fluttered on the gate tower. The city fell into the hands of Arrod. "Ah." Even the Mecklenburg Regiment, which had undergone rigorous training, could not resist temptation when faced with a wealthy city. The soldiers broke into the homes of wealthy citizens and robbed them. Even worse, they would attack the female family members. , if anyone stops the soldiers who are red-eyed, they will chop them off with their swords without hesitation. To them, this is common sense in this world. "We won." Aruode looked at the flag raised on the gatehouse and said to Ron with satisfaction. "Yes, Your Majesty the Duke, we have won again." Earl Ron nodded to Aruode. "Very good, let me go in and take a look at this trophy." Aruode said with a smile. With the help of his attendants, he mounted his horse, and several guards slowly followed Aruode. The knight held Arod's flag and led the team in slowly. The city's gatehouse was already in a semi-collapsed state under the attack. The soldiers had to remove half of the wooden door to allow Arod, the conqueror, to enter. . "Ah." When Aruode walked into the city streets, the place was already in a mess. He heard a woman's scream while riding on his horse, and saw a Mecklenburg soldier grabbing a woman's hair and dragging her out of the house in a merchant's house next to the street. "Hey. Stop." Aruode immediately stopped and shouted from his horse. "Uh?" The soldier saw Arrude strangely. He quickly let go of the woman's hair and stood upright in front of Arold. "Let this woman go, my army cannot do such a thing." Aruode understands the predatory nature of the soldiers, but raping a woman is absolutely not allowed, at least within the scope of his control. "I'm sorry, Lord Duke. This woman is my trophy." The soldier wearing an iron helmet, his face covered with fireworks dust, spat out a series of words under his thick beard. "That's enough, I'll buy your trophies." Aruode said to the soldier. "This is not fair enough." The soldier muttered with some dissatisfaction, and he wanted to vent his remaining energy. "Soldier, if you don't want to be whipped, just be content." A Ruode waved his hand and said to his soldiers. "As you wish, my lord the Duke." The soldiers of the Mecklenburg Legion received strict discipline training and fear of Arod's authority. "Very good." Aruode nodded with satisfaction, and turned his head to lookThe burning city was burning, and the flying ashes formed by the flames were like dancing shining stars. The sky gradually turned red. Looking at this scene, Aruode couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts. ??In the palace courtyard of Quedlinburg, far away from the battlefield, two women were talking in the courtyard under the blood-red sunset, and the topic was their common man, this man was Arold. "It's been half a month since the expedition. I wonder if Aruode has won?" Princess Josie stepped on the grass under her feet and said to Harvey beside her. "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the Duke is fully prepared this time. The Kalshitalan people are no match for him." Harvey shrugged. This time it was almost an unsuspicious victory. No matter where you looked, it was impossible to fail. . "Aruode has special trust in you, that's why you have so much confidence in him, right?" Princess Josie turned her head and looked at Harvey. The female spy leader looked very charming against the red clouds, making her Princess Josie couldn't help but feel a little jealous. "Your Highness, what do you mean by this?" Harvey was slightly embarrassed. She felt that Princess Josie had already noticed the underground relationship between Arold and herself. However, Princess Josie did not speak. Instead, she walked to a cluster of roses. Reach out and pick. "Hey, be careful, Your Highness, Princess." Harvey wanted to remind Princess Josie, but was still a step too slow. "Hiss, ah." Princess Qiao Qi looked at her finger, which was pricked by a rose thorn. Instantly, red blood gushed out. "Are you okay?" Harvey stepped forward and took off the hem of his clothes and bandaged Princess Josie. The blood dyed the linen red. "Aruode." Princess Qiao Qian blurted out an ominous premonition in her heart. Harvey was also stunned for a moment. "Damn Duke of Mecklenburg, I will never spare you." Mayor Carl Shitalan crawled out from the burning ruins of the house. His whole body was burned by the flames, but the rage of revenge made him explode. Show amazing power. He saw Aruode riding a horse not far away. It happened that the mayor saw the body of a Kalshitalan soldier. The soldier was holding a crossbow, and his neck was cut in half, and blood was flowing from his veins. The mayor crawled over hard, waded through the soldiers' blood, and picked up the crossbow. "Okay, Ron, let's take this lady to rest." Aruode said to the woman who was grateful. "It's the Duke." Ron quickly turned over and dismounted. When he was walking towards the woman, he suddenly heard the sound of an arrow piercing the air. "Woo." Arrude felt like he was hit hard on the neck, and his eyes widened. He stretched out his hand to scratch his neck, only to feel that his fingers were pricked by the sharp tip of the crossbow arrow. "Your Majesty the Duke." Ron's voice was hoarse and distorted. He stepped forward to hug Arold, who fell from the horse. He saw Arold's neck being shot through by a crossbow bolt, and blood spurted out from his mouth. "I, what's wrong with me?" Aruode felt something sweet in his mouth. His vision became increasingly blurry, and his body seemed to be filled with lead-like weight. Ron's face gradually became farther and farther away from him. . A darkness and cold enveloped Arold, and he seemed to be watching a movie in the darkness. Looking back at my life, those scenes are like fireflies flying around me in the dark night, and fresh and familiar faces emerge one by one. "Old Xue, Lao Xue, wake up quickly." Just when Aruode wanted to chase these fireflies. He heard someone shouting non-stop. He didn't know what the other person was shouting, but a splitting headache made him suddenly open his eyes. "I, where am I?" Xue Zheng opened his eyes and saw a chubby round face wandering in front of him. The white walls and hanging infusion bottles made it seem like I was in a hospital. "Lao Xue, you finally woke up. Oh my god, if the landlord hadn't found out, you would have gone to the West to find the Buddha." A sincere smile appeared on the little fat man's face, and he rushed forward and hugged Xue Zheng fiercely. "Oh, I, I am Xue Zheng, I seem to have been struck by lightning." Xue Zheng finally remembered that when he went to repair the TV antenna, he was struck by lightning and injured. "Yes, you are really lucky, don't worry, when you get better, I will definitely introduce you to some good girls." The little fat man said to him happily. "Ah, my head hurts so much. I seem to have had a long dream." Xue Zheng was lying weakly on the hospital bed. The environment of this ward was good, and there was a hanging TV. It must have been the help of the little fat father. "What's wrong?" the little fat man asked curiously. "I seem to have seen this program somewhere." Xue Zheng looked at the TV screen. There was a program introducing European travel. There were ruined castles and several Europeans sitting on the grass talking about something. "Really, don't think about it"?, take a rest quickly, okay, my dad asked you to come to our company, and we two brothers will create a business empire together. "The little fat man laughed and said. "Stop bragging. "Xue Zheng pushed the little fat man away. He felt indescribably melancholy and tired in his body and heart, and his eyes always fell on the ruins of the castle. A plane passed through the blue sky, and behind Xue Zheng under the blue sky Walking on the grass with a backpack, I have to say that Europeans have really good environmental protection concepts. The air here is better than the countryside. ¡°Why, why do I feel so familiar? "Xue Zheng left the tour group and walked alone on this land near the Baltic coast. The newly excavated castle ruins in the forest appeared in front of him. Looking at this building that seemed to have been erased by time, Xue Zheng felt in his heart Unspeakable loneliness gushed out. ¡°Huh? "Suddenly, a blond German girl walked out of the broken wall. She looked at Xue Zheng with big blue eyes. The two looked at each other silently. "Luna, are you here? "Just when Xue Zheng moved forward to step forward, a European girl with black hair ran out from behind him. She was as tall and hot as a model and as agile as a deer. "Do we know each other? "The blond girl named Luna asked curiously in English. "No, I don't know him. "Xue Zheng shook his head, but his heart was beating unsatisfactorily. The black-haired girl held the blond girl's arm and looked at Luna in surprise, then at Xue Zheng. The sun shone on the broken walls of the castle. , unknown birds were singing in the forest, the lyre of history seemed to be tinkling, and the three of them stood there like sculptures. ¡°Eh? "The blond Luna and the black-haired girl noticed that tears were flowing down from their eyes at the same time, and they couldn't help but reach out to catch them at the same time. The corners of Xue Zheng's mouth turned up slightly, and he was back. "Into the Middle Ages" ends (to be completed) Continued.) Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotia.net
