    The sound of kicking the door woke up the guards in the living room. They got up from their marching blankets, but everyone looked confused. It was obvious that they were hungover and couldn't figure out what happened for the moment.  "What are you doing? If you wake up the commander" A guard cursed at the people who entered the room. Until this moment, he thought that the people who came in were his companions from outside.  However, what greeted him was Raymond's sharp sword. Half of the guard's neck was cut open, and he fell to the ground spinning, with blood splattering everywhere.  The other guards didn¡¯t realize something was wrong until blood splattered on their faces.  However, the hangover and the sudden incident made their reactions extremely slow. Some of them could not even touch their swords. The Gaspard soldiers swarmed up and quickly eliminated them all.  At this time, a door on the left side of the living room opened, and a man in disheveled clothes rubbed his eyes and poked his head out: "What's the noise? If you don't want to sleep, get out of here." However, when he saw the light of the torch,  When he saw the corpses and blood on the floor in the living room, his expression suddenly changed: "What are you" Before he finished speaking, Raymond took a step forward, grabbed the man's throat, and put the sword in his hand on his neck.  , pushing the man into the room.  After making sure that there was no one else in the room, Raymond said in a deep voice: "Which room does your commander live in?" At this time, the man already understood that he was being attacked. He said with a pale face and a trembling voice: "You, what are you doing?  Yes" "Say!" Raymond shouted, and the sword pressed against his neck.  Feeling the cold steel, the man was frightened and said hurriedly: "The room at the end of the corridor on the second floor." "Please, please spare my life." "No." As he spoke, Raymond put his sword against  He scratched the man's neck and then pushed him away.  The man clutched his throat with a look of horror on his face.  Blood dripped down his fingers. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to call for help, but no more sound came out.  Raymond walked out of the room and closed the door behind his back when he heard a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.  At this time, Gaspard's soldiers were kicking open the doors of each room fiercely.  Charge in with your sword in hand.  The whole first floor of the house was full of shaking figures, and there were screams and exclamations.  Knowing that the enemy commander was on the second floor, Raymond rushed upstairs without stopping, with a group of people following closely behind him.  Going upstairs and around the corner is a long corridor with several rooms on both sides, and the door at the end is closed.  Raymond strode towards the room at the end. At this time, several doors on both sides opened. The officer who heard the movement downstairs poked his head out dizzy, trying to figure out what happened.  But before they could ask.  The soldiers following Raymond had pushed them back, and then followed them with swords in hand. There was a scream immediately in the corridor.  Raymond walked to the room at the end and raised his leg with a kick. The door was kicked open with a bang. However, the room was empty and the sheets on the bed were scattered. He happened to see a figure jump out of the window.  Unexpectedly, the other party had already escaped first.  Raymond rushed to the window.  He was about to chase after him, but he looked down.  Bast was seen grabbing a panicked man.  Showing a proud smile to Raymond in front of the window, Bastet slashed the man's neck with the scimitar in her hand, then threw him to the ground, then turned around and rushed into another house.  Raymond felt relieved and turned around to walk out of the room. At this time, the other soldiers also walked out of the room.  There was blood on everyone's sword.  "Are you done?" Raymond asked.  Everyone nodded excitedly: "Kill them all." "Okay, let's go!" Raymond waved his hand and led everyone outside the house.  ***************************************************  **************** At this time, the entire town was in complete chaos.  In order to facilitate the gathering of soldiers the next day, the enemy commander limited the resting places of the troops to the houses surrounding the square.  This is what happened.  Except for the relatively comfortable living environment that officers can have, ordinary soldiers have to squeeze many people into one room.  Often dozens of people sleep in one room, and hundreds of people can be squeezed into larger ones.  In addition, after partying all night and being hungover, after Gaspard's soldiers rushed in, the enemy was unable to resist at all, and many enemy soldiers died in a daze.  Due to lack of troops, Gaspard's army could not rush into every house, so they set fire to the remaining houses.  The soldiers in the square kept throwing torches into the enemy's houses, and soon the fire spread.  The enemy woke up from his sleep, and in the denseUnder the threat of fire and flames, they instinctively ran outside the house. Most of them were completely unarmed.  However, what was waiting for them outside the house was Gaspard's army who was waiting in full formation.  Since Raymond had given an order not to spare, they faced the enemies who ran out almost naked and hacked them mercilessly.  Suddenly, the entire square was surrounded by flames and thick smoke. People rushed out from the burning houses one after another, and countless figures were scurrying around like headless flies.  Screams, curses, and cries for help mixed together and turned into a commotion. The Gaspard soldiers chased the panicked Dirk soldiers with their swords. Corpses were everywhere on the ground, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.  .  "Lord Yamanlu, what should we do?" Since Raymond had already taken care of all the officers who were sleeping together, the Dirk army lost its command. The frightened soldiers were unable to organize effective resistance at all, and everyone was doing their own thing.  , was defeated by the Gaspard soldiers who were far fewer than their own.  This man named Yamanlu was the staff member who had warned the commander to be careful. Because his class was too low, he could not live in the officer's house, but he escaped.  But at this moment, he is already the highest-ranking person in this army.  So, in a panic, many soldiers automatically gathered around him.  At this moment, everyone was asking Yamanlu for help, waiting for his orders.  Seeing the chaotic scene around him, Yamanlu knew clearly that it was impossible to resist.  The only way is to run for your life quickly.  "Run!" He said decisively.  Needless to say, those soldiers had the same idea, but they just lacked a leader.  Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fled out of the town.  "Wait, wait!" Unexpectedly, Yamanlu stopped everyone angrily.  "That's the direction of Gaspard. God knows how many enemies are waiting for us. Do you want to die?" Yamanlu said loudly.  "Run back and report to His Majesty. This is the only way to survive." As Raymond expected, the frightened enemy did not dare to run into Gaspard territory. Under the command of Yamanlu, he was still alive.  All the people rushed out of the town and fled back.  At this time, the entire square was littered with corpses and blood flowed into rivers.  Most of the enemy troops died here, and many of them did not even have time to draw out their weapons, and died completely inexplicably.  "Sir Raymond, the remaining enemies have all run away." Someone reported to Raymond.  Raymond also saw it. The remaining enemy troops rushed out of the town and fled in the direction they came from.  He took a breath and said, "Okay, there's no need to chase them, Makudi will take care of them." The Gaspard soldiers present were all chopped to pieces.  But everyone was excited.  This was the first time that Gaspard's army achieved a complete victory against Dirk's army.  This gave them a little more confidence in winning the war.  The next day, news came from Makudi that the fleeing enemy troops were blocked by them. Except for a few people who escaped under the cover of night, all others were annihilated.  Just like that, after a night of fighting.  This Dilke forward force, which penetrated deep into the territory of Gaspard and underestimated the enemy with pride, was completely wiped out.  After Makudi led his troops to join him, Raymond ordered everyone to arrange the battlefield, and then ordered: "Let's go. It's time to go back!" Gaspard's army left the town and headed towards the city of Aulat in high spirits.  go.  ***************************************************  **************** A few days later.  After receiving reports from survivors, Dilk¡¯s main force arrived outside Darlu Town.  "Your Majesty, look." Accompanied by several generals, Leonard, who had already sat on the throne of Dirk, was looking at the scene in the town.  When Raymond left, he deliberately did not clean the battlefield. He only planted the flag of the forward unit on the statue in the middle of the square to demonstrate to the Dilke army.  What appeared in front of everyone at this moment, apart from the burned houses and corpses on the ground, was the Dilke flag flying high, which was extremely dazzling.  Leonard looked at the scene in front of him calmly, without any joy or anger in his eyes.  He did not speak, and the other generals did not dare to speak. They only exchanged cautious glances behind Leonard.  "Good job." After a while, Leonard suddenly smiled.  Since they couldn't see his expression, everyone behind him was stunned and couldn't help but look panicked.  When he was just a prince, Leonard was known for his arrogance and ruthlessness.  And in this battle for the throne, he brought this trait to the extreme. In more than half a year of war,Denard used thunderous means to ruthlessly clean up his brother's power. Everyone who joined Denard's camp, whether they were generals, civil servants or nobles with prominent family backgrounds, ended up with their heads missing without exception.  In the end, Leonard did not even spare his biological brother, and personally killed Denard, who was defeated and begged for surrender, and completely wiped out all those who resisted him.  It is said that when the queen learned about this, she became seriously ill and is currently dying.  Such a terrifying technique even made people on Leonard¡¯s side fearful.  Since he ascended the throne, Vilon has become more and more powerful, and even his close confidant Beren has become more cautious when accompanying Leonard.  Just like now, even though Leonard is smiling, the people on the side feel unsure and even more afraid.  After a while, a general said cautiously: "I didn't see a single Gaspard person all the way here. It seems that the intelligence is indeed correct. In order to resist us, Gaspard conducted a complete evacuation." Another  Humanity said: "That idiot Emhyr must have been too careless because of this and got ambushed here." "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead a force to continue to be the vanguard and wipe out all the enemy forces in front of you." The person who spoke before  The general patted his chest and asked loudly for orders.  "No need." Leonard shook his head: "The enemy has already run away, and there will be no more ambush ahead." "Why?" Seeing him speaking so firmly, everyone looked at each other.  "Emhyr fell into an ambush because of his carelessness. Your Majesty, you must not" A general was about to remind Leonard. He suddenly realized that his words were equivalent to comparing Leonard to Emhyr, and he became angry.  Change, shut up immediately.  Ignoring the unlucky guy who was so frightened that he was sweating, Leonard said leisurely: "Because it was Raymond who did it. He wouldn't be stupid enough to try to do it again." "Raymond?" A person asked in confusion.  He said: "Heddington will definitely resist us together with Gaspard, but this is just a small ambush. How can you be so sure that it must be him?" "Because this is his method." Leonard led  He looked at the Dilke flag on the statue with an admiring expression: "Only Raymond can do this in a bad way." "But I like it very much." It was really hard to figure out what Leonard was thinking, so a general could only say  "Your Majesty, let's have someone clean this place up." "Of course! Of course!" Leonard replied loudly, and he opened his arms toward the square: "These are my heroic warriors from Dirk, and they must be buried properly.  They ordered the troops to rest outside the town for the night and continue moving forward tomorrow. "Yes." Everyone behind them responded in unison.  "That's right. Behead the guys who escaped and bury them together." Leonard added lightly as he turned to leave.  The hearts of the generals beat uncontrollably again.  ***************************************************  **************** That night, the Dirk Army camped outside the town.  After clearing the battlefield, they gathered the bodies of all the dead soldiers together and placed them in the town square.  After holding a simple funeral ceremony, Leonard ordered the entire town of Darlu to be set on fire as a grave for the deceased.  The fire that burned the town was raging.  The fire lit up half the sky.  The entire camp of Dirk officers and men watched the fire, which reflected the sky, to them.  What is more terrifying than this fire is the unpredictable madness of his own king.  But to Leonard, ordering the burning of a town was as trivial as having a late-night snack.  At this moment, he was sitting in the huge command tent, not even interested in taking a look outside.  "According to the information just sent not long ago, it is not just the west of Gaspard. From the east of Aulat City, that is, the entire Kingdom of Gaspard, the people have moved in all areas along our march.  "An intelligence officer was reading the document in his hand to everyone attending the meeting.  "The entire Gaspard Kingdom?" Upon hearing the news, everyone gasped.  "They actually evacuated the entire country. What a generous move." A general sighed.  "What exactly are they planning to do?" "According to reliable information, the other party seems to be planning to choose the location of the decisive battle at the Giant's Seal Pass on the border with Headington." The intelligence officer continued.  "Seal of the Giant?" The general said in surprise: "No wonder they want to evacuate the people across the country. It turns out they want to use scorched earth tactics to tire out our troops." "Humph, it's just a wishful thinking." Another person sneered: "This time  We are well prepared and are not worried about the lack of food and fodder. Moreover, by doing this, the enemy exposed their fear.Secondly, it will no longer threaten our logistics, which is a great help to us.  " "If this is Raymond's plan, then the rumors about him are really exaggerated.  "At this time, Leonard, who had been silent, asked: "Where is Aulat City?  Is the enemy prepared to hold on?  The intelligence officer nodded: "Yes, that's the only place where the enemy doesn't intend to give up."  Although the enemy's main force has all withdrawn to the Giant's Seal, some soldiers are still left to defend.  " "Stick to the isolated city?  "Everyone at the meeting showed admiration. They naturally knew how much courage it took to hold on to such a city alone. "Who is the commander left behind?  "Someone asked curiously. The intelligence officer glanced at the document in his hand, but looked embarrassed, as if hesitating whether to say it or not. "What's wrong?  Someone said impatiently: "Didn't you even find out about this?"  "The intelligence officer said hurriedly: "No, it's just" After a pause, he finally said: "The intelligence said that the one left behindis Queen Sophia.  "    "What!  ?  "As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, even Leonard sat up straight. "Is it true?  The general asked repeatedly: "Is there a mistake?"  " "How could it be Sophia? Did the enemy abandon their queen in the city?  " "It must be that the intelligence is wrong, or it was released by the enemy to confuse us.  "" Everyone expressed their disbelief. The intelligence officer read the document carefully again and said to everyone: "It is specifically stated in the intelligence that our spies have repeatedly verified this."  This news has long been spread in Aulat City. They have confirmed it through many parties and it seems to be true.  "    "Give me.  "Leonard stretched out his hand to the intelligence officer. The intelligence officer quickly handed him the document. Leonard took it and read it silently for a while, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Interesting, this time it really exceeded my expectations.  .  " Leonard said this, and he obviously believed it. Seeing that Leonard confirmed the authenticity of the intelligence, the generals present looked at each other, and one of them slammed the table: "This is an excellent opportunity!  " Another person also said: "Yes, the enemy is stupid enough to leave the queen to defend the city. As long as we capture Aulat and capture Sophia alive, we can ensure that the enemies of the Giant's Seal will collapse immediately.  " After learning that Sophia was staying in Aulat City, everyone was extremely excited, and immediately changed the goal of destroying the coalition forces of Gaspard and Headington to capturing Sophia alive.
