Black Iron Crown

Chapter 260: Not bloody

At this time, Mekalong City was already in chaos, and the people in it were not single-minded. In addition to the local residents, there were also some foreign merchants who had not had time to escape.

They want to leave here countless times, but the city gate has been closed. How can Sir Fata let them leave?

Therefore, these people caused countless chaos and riots in the castle, but in the end they were suppressed by the rabble citizens led by Sir Fata.

"What to do! The earl of Rainer is here! We are done!" a businessman with a more decent dress and a string of ornaments around his neck said to another businessman in a panic.

"Don't panic!" The businessman's head was loud because of the noise, and he said loudly: "What's the cause of panic! There are five thousand defenders in the castle. Even if the Earl of Rainer is extremely vicious, can he be able to break through five? Does the defense of a thousand people come in to burn, kill, and looting?"

"Furthermore... Even if the Earl of Rainer strikes in! Who can be sure that he will slaughter the city? Want to know why he defeated Earl Jebo? I don't believe that he would be unmoved in a prosperous city like Mekalong! "

After being eaten with reassurance, the flustered businessman finally calmed down, patted his chest and smiled embarrassedly: "Hey...I'm not too worried...that's right...that Earl Rainer didn't The reason is not tempted to Mekalong City..."

In such a panic situation, any information that is suspected of intelligence will spread very quickly.

The idle aunts, the gangs of hooligans, and those who hand over on the wall are the best carriers of gossip, and countless gossips are circulating in the castle.

"Have you heard..." a middle-aged woman said to another woman she knew with her vegetable basket.

"what?"

"I heard... that Earl of Rainer is a kind person! He didn't come to Mecalon to slaughter and rob, but to put this place under the rule. He will treat us kindly!" the middle-aged woman whispered Said.

"Ah? Who did you listen to? Is this true?" Another woman was a little suspicious after hearing this. She had heard too many versions of rumors. Besides, Sir Fata also said about Earl Rainer. Is the cruelest demon.

"You still don't believe me, I told you because of the best relationship between you and me!" The woman said: "One of my nephews lives in Morandburg. He is a soldier in the army of the Earl of Reiner. He said that Earl Reiner is very kind to his residents. Not only is taxation not heavy, he is also very concerned about the lives of the residents!"

"You said, such a lord is comparable to our Count Zhebo, who only knows about taxation and army expansion all day?" the woman gushed.

"Really! That's great..."

"Remember! Don't tell anyone!"

"Don't worry, I remember!"

In fact, it is better to believe that these middle-aged women have a strict mouth than to believe that sows can go up the tree. Many rumors are spread like this, and they will be amplified during the spread and become extremely exaggerated.

As the saying goes, the creative ability of working people is the strongest, and countless excellent stories often come from the folks.

At the end of this rumor, it was completely masked. The Earl of Rainer was the envoy sent by the Father to save the world, the land of Rainer did not charge taxes at all, the bread and butter were ignored, and the Merland family were all amiable. People.

It spread to the end even beyond the control of the spies.

Yes, such rumors were spread by the spies. Although they had difficulty communicating with Rainer outside the city because the gates were closed, they also played their part.

The twenty-third of the empire on March 2nd.

Rainer had besieged the city of Micalon for three days, and he keenly felt that the guards on the wall began to look chaotic, and at the same time his morale was a little low.

He squinted his eyes and stared at the situation on the city wall, carefully thinking about any possibility.

After a long sigh, he still didn't find a good way.

There are too many defenders on the city wall, a total of five thousand people, even if they are mobs, they cannot be conquered by the forces he has now.

The only thing he can do now is to encircle the three and miss one and try to persuade him to surrender.

However, it is useless to be surrounded by three and one without one, because the castles in this world have only one exit, and they must rely on this to enter and exit. As a commercial city, Mecalon has only two gates, so this will not allow the castle. The people inside felt there was a chance to escape.

"Let's launch a letter persuading surrender into the city! Try to dismantle the opponent's fighting spirit!"

Reiner can only do this, but he doesn’t worry that the logistics supply can’t keep up. The thousands of residents of Fort Merland have already participated in the transportation. In addition, the food harvested this year is so large that he can even There is no need to worry about logistics during the siege until the next year.

Seven more days passed.

The army was still doing short drills step by step, and then squatting in the tent waiting for Lena's order, and his vassals also began to drink drunkenly, turning upside down almost day and night.

Rainer was standing under Mecaron City. At this time, the preparations were fully prepared. Dozens of ladders had already been delivered from Fort Merland. As for the wells... that thing is still a high-end thing that will not be built for the time being.

He was already staring impatiently, and the ten-day siege had already consumed his heart.

He directly forcibly pulled the vassals up from the bed and ordered all the soldiers to begin to assemble and prepare to attack the city.

"Remember!" Reiner shouted to the assembled soldiers. He never let go of this kind of appearance in front of the soldiers. He wanted the soldiers to have a clear understanding of themselves and know that For whom.

"You must shout when you are attacking the city! If the surrenders will not die, the enemies inside will most likely give up the idea of ​​resisting you, and you will become very safe!"

After confirming to convey to every soldier, Rainer completely began the siege operation.

Dozens of ladders were erected on the wall of Mekalong City, which was eight meters high and one meter taller than Fort Morand.

Then came the Scarlet Griffin Knights to take the lead. The knights followed closely, the sergeants and armed soldiers followed them, and the archers and Vettel crossbowmen suppressed the enemy's arrow tower under the castle.

Reiner intends to come to a wave, try to use strong force to defeat the confidence of the enemy, and then minimize the loss, as soon as possible to conquer the castle ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ surrender to avoid death! "

Such words screamed loudly in the siege of Morand County.

Who knows, the defenders who heard such words turned down their weapons and knelt to the ground when the soldiers hadn't boarded the wall.

When Sir Varas led the Scarlet Griffin Riders on the wall, he looked dazed.

Everyone looked at each other. Although they couldn't see each other's expressions under the helmet wrapper, they could all feel each other's feeling of beeping a dog like themselves.

The army of these five thousand citizens is like dominoes. Wherever Rainer's army went, May Day did not throw away his weapons and fell to the ground.

All they need to do is to kill more than 20 soldiers in charge of supervision. In fact, several soldiers have been killed by the citizens...

In this way, in just twenty minutes, Rainer's army defeated the walls of Mekalong City without a single blow.
