Black Iron Crown

Chapter 464: plot

After a period of time, the defenders below the city wall would attack the city wall while the defenders were busy avoiding arrows.

  

  Although every time it was not a full-scale attack, it almost evened the proportion of casualties on both sides.

  

   The battle damage was close to one to one, completely offsetting the advantage brought by the city wall.

  

   It took longer and longer, and the morale of the defending army was getting worse and worse. Earl Crick had to put on his armor and walk up to the city wall to boost his morale.

  

   He looked frowning at the enemy army below. For the next defense of the city, his confidence is no longer as sufficient as at the beginning.

  

   "Where is Earl Creek! We should negotiate again!"

  

   Below the city wall, Sir Constance once again raised a white flag and came to the front of the city wall. Because of the white flag in his hand, the archers on the arrow tower did not shoot.

  

   As for whether the shooting was really due to the white flag or some other reason, it is unclear.

  

  The soldiers on the city wall looked at Earl Crick eagerly. They were already tired of this war.

  

   facing the threat of death all the time, the depressive atmosphere makes people feel like he is in hell. If it is a battle against the enemy with real swords and guns on the frontal battlefield, these soldiers who have fought **** battles are not afraid.

  

   But if they are always in danger like they are now, and they don't know when death will fall on their heads, their hearts are under immense pressure.

  

   Looking at the hopeful gazes of the soldiers, Earl Crick could only sigh and allow Sir Constance to walk up the city wall.

  

   "What's wrong with you vaguely?" Earl Crick asked helplessly.

  

   "Dear Earl Crick, we have been besieging your castle for more than two months. The Grand Duke of Rainer will not come. Please give up your resistance. The adults may be willing to reduce some demands!"

  

   "Stop talking about it, this is absolutely impossible. Grand Duke Rainer just needs time to mobilize the army and march, and we will hold on until his arrival!"

  

   "But what's the use of him coming? Even if he comes, the only end is death! He will die here! If you don't want to be buried with him, please get acquainted!"

  

   "He's going to die here?" Earl Crick listened to Sir Constance's indifferent tone to the famous Grand Duke Rainer and couldn't help but notice something wrong: "What do you mean?"

  

Sir Constance seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly changed the subject: "I mean, you can't hold on to the arrival of Grand Duke Rainer, and the castle will be broken by us. If you throw it in, you can avoid it. Such a tragedy happened!"

  

   "Even if you don't think for yourself, but also for your family, your soldiers, and all your followers, think about it. If you just go your own way, what will happen to them?"

  

   "Please think about it, don't let the tragedy happen!" Sir Constance said dancing and dancing, as if it fell into the ears of the soldiers and caused waves of waves.

  

   "Enough!" Seeing Sir Constance's actions, Earl Crick's face suddenly changed. He discovered that this Sir Constance was not here to negotiate at all, but to disintegrate the fighting spirit of the soldiers!

  

   "I was able to tolerate you before, but you challenged my bottom line again and again. This time, I can't forgive you anymore!"

  

   The smile on Sir Constance's face instantly solidified, his pale face barely squeezed out a smile, and said: "What are you talking about, dear Earl Crick, maybe you don't intend to do that!"

  

   "You must be wrong, am I right?" Sir Constance said with a strong smile.

  

   "No, although I am old, I am not confused yet. I know exactly what I just said!" Earl Crick looked at Sir Constance blankly.

  

   As he said, he winked at the two soldiers beside him, and the two of them immediately understood, and walked up to grab the hands of Sir Constance.

  

"No! Earl Creek! Honorable Earl Creek, don't do that! It's for the sake of the Father! Please!" Sir Constance wailed and wailed, no longer the spirited spirit he had just now. breath.

  

   "Execute him on the spot!" Earl Crick shouted, he wanted to boost the morale that had been hit by Sir Constance.

  

   At the order of Earl Crick, a knight beside him drew a long sword from his waist and looked at Sir Constance in front of him.

  

   He slowly approached with a long sword in his hand, and every step he took seemed to step on the heart of Sir Constance.

  

   He no longer had the arrogance he had before, crying for mercy.

  

   And on the other side at this time, Earl Lorens was looking at the letter in front of him in his castle, and an ordinary-looking middle-aged man was standing in front of him in a Chinese suit.

  

   "Very good, very good, I understand how to do it, you have made such a great contribution in the imperial capital, you deserve a reward!"

  

  Speaking of these, Earl Crick suddenly asked again: "Do you know the date that Grand Duke Rainer sent troops? On that day did he leave the northern border with the army?"

  

   "June 7th, Lord Earl, he will set out with troops on June 7th!"

  

   "June 7th..." Count Lorans nodded and said, "Well, you can go out, and you will get the reward you deserve!"

  

   "Alfato!" Count Lorance shouted at the door.

  

   After a while, a middle-aged man with a slightly rickety figure walked into his study.

  

"Alfato, immediately send my order to prepare everyone for battle, food, leather armor, all for me, and at the same time summon all my vassals, let them bring the army to me to assemble! "

  

   "Yes, Lord Earl, I will do it right away!" The middle-aged man left the room after receiving the order to carry out the words of Earl Lorens.

  

   "Grand Duke Rainer..." Count Lorans narrowed his eyes and said, "I will definitely make you pay...Northern Duke, huh..."

  

   At this time, Rainer knew nothing about all of this. He had already walked to the middle of the empire with his army, not far from the emperor.

  

  Imperial September 20th, 26th ~lightnovelpub.net~Leiner has led the army to a position slightly closer to the south.

  

   He is only about 500 kilometers away from Fort Creek, and further south is the sphere of influence of the upstarts.

  

A large number of the new aristocrats’ territories are here, and in places further south, the territories that originally belonged to the royal lords have also been invaded by them. That is to say, the next five hundred kilometers will be all of these new aristocrats. Sphere of influence.

  

   Lena frowned when he looked at the winding, rugged, and somewhat muddy narrow dirt road in front of him.

  

   He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to the obedient next to him: "Transfer my order, everyone rests for 30 minutes, then put on the armor and move on!"

  

  Rainer was lucky. He happened to miss the hottest weather in the south. It is autumn now and the temperature is no longer unbearable.

  

  Rainer is not sure what the upstarts will do, so to be on the safe side, let the soldiers march in full gear to avoid danger.
