"Run! Run!"

Listening to the crisp gunshots from time to time behind him and the sharp piercing sound of lead bullets passing by, King Du Bois shouted in horror, his heart was filled with endless fear, and he couldn't even calm down. think.

He didn't know how his whereabouts were exposed. He only knew that his army was overtaken by the Winster Cavalry after a distance from Nyandipa City. The short-barreled weapons they used could be carried at a long distance. Shooting is as powerful as the long-barreled weapon used by infantrymen. Under the attack of this peculiar weapon, the infantry following the army fell one after another. They were startled by the loud noise and remembered the artillery used by Winster's army. The already shaken army suddenly collapsed and fled by themselves. .

They did not try to fight back, but before the court cavalry rushed to the carbine cavalry with heavy lances, the dense barrage shot them halfway, and the strong armor of the knight could not stop the penetration of lead bullets. Many knights were shot to death before they even realized what had happened. After the leading knights died in battle, the other knights turned their heads and shouted to retreat in the direction they had come.

Du Bois had no choice but to retreat with the retreating knight. He was mixed in the chaos. The sound of the heart beating violently in his chest even surpassed the sound of the horses hooves under the crotch, but even if he speeded up the horse no matter how fast he was. , The nightmare gunfire still echoed in the space not far behind him, making him afraid to look around.

"Chasing! Catch King Lucino alive!"

Officer Winster’s voice came from behind, making him startled in vain. He turned his head slightly to look behind him, but he was shocked to see that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, running fastest. The Winster Cavalry was already less than 20 meters away from him. If they hadn't reloaded immediately, they might even have caught up with them!

Bang bang bang ——

"The man in the red robe in front is King Rusino! Capture him alive!"

After the crisp gunfire, the shouts of the Winsters came into Du Bois' ears. His face changed greatly. He held the reins tightly with one hand and the red robe draped over the shoulders with the other. He pulled it off with a twitch, and then threw it to the rear. The red robe drifted in the wind and fell to the ground, trampled in the mud by the horse that followed.

"The one with the crown and helmet in front is King Rusino, catch him!"

Damn it! Du Bois subconsciously cursed in his heart when he heard the words, then took off the helmet a few times, revealing his long, bright hair like a raging fire. He wanted to throw the helmet away, but he suddenly hesitated looking at the luxurious decorations on it. But then he gritted his teeth and threw the helmet behind him. The metal helmet slammed heavily on the ground, making a clanging sound, and bounced it a few times aside.

I thought that there would be no obvious decoration after throwing away the helmet, but the shout of Officer Winster came from behind him again, almost causing him to vomit blood—"The man with long red hair in front is King Rusino, who captured King Rusino. !"

"Damn it! Damn it!"

He cursed angrily. At this moment, there was another series of gunshots. Several knights beside him were shot in the back and screamed and fell from their horses. This scene shocked Du Bois abruptly and swallowed the subsequent curses. When he got down, he had to speed up his horse, but he ran a few meters away, only to hear a gunshot behind him, his hips were soft, his limbs softened, and the whole neighed and fell forward. The king sitting on the horse was caught off guard and was thrown into the air. go out. Du Bois only felt the world spin for a while, hitting his back heavily on the hard ground, and instantly lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, he was already a captive of the Winsters. Although he was not tied with a rough rope like other captives, he was still under house arrest in a dormitory in Fort Nyandipane, outside the door. It is a few heavily armed line infantrymen, outside the window is the ground tens of meters high, unless he has wings, otherwise he can't escape anyway.

The glory of capturing King Du Bois belongs to the Guards Cavalry Brigade directly under the Second Brigade-to put it aside, compared to ordinary cavalry, the uniforms of Guards Cavalry above the brigade are decorated with gold thread. This is also a way to distinguish them from ordinary cavalry.

The news of the king’s capture was deliberately spread by Winster’s army, and quickly spread to the entire Rusino Kingdom, and to its king, Rusitas, causing shocks between the ruling and opposition parties. The regents appointed before the king’s expedition could not take care of the political opponents. After fighting, I hurriedly convened a cabinet meeting to discuss countermeasures. They knew that the Winsters who must report to Javier would not accept their conditional surrender. Even if they raised funds to redeem Du Bois himself, it would not be of much help, because it didn’t take long for Winster’s army to come down. Enter the cell again.

Thinking of this, they gritted their teeth and decided to surrender directly to the Winsters. Since they couldn't beat them, it's better to be their little brother at ease and bite them again later when they have a chance.

However, the Winsters, who had learned from the past, would not let them achieve their goals easily. Faced with the messenger sent by the city of Lusitas, the second brigade commander Butters Stozi bluntly rejected the Lusino’s. Plead for peace, claiming to lead the army to smash the city of Luxitas in order to avenge the treachery of the Luxinos. Then the messenger's left ear was cut off, and he was ordered to take his left ear and return to life.

Butters’ cruel words shook the court of Lusitas. The nobles condemned the barbaric acts of the Winsters while worrying about their own lives~lightnovelpub.net~ Since the road to peace has been blocked. , Then they could only fight back, and jointly recruit soldiers and hire nearby mercenaries. Fortunately, after the outbreak of the war, many mercenaries who wanted to find opportunities in the war went to the Kingdom of Rusino. They were able to obtain a large number of mercenaries. Effectiveness.

However, this did not help. After stabilizing the order of Nyandipah, Butters sent someone to **** the captive King Du Bois back to Nord City to accompany the kings who were imprisoned in Gabferta. Drinking tea and chattering, and then heading northward, driving aggressively towards the city of Lusitas.

Before the war hit the capital, the rich and civilians in the city were busy packing their belongings and fleeing elsewhere. The Winsters’ combat power was obvious to all, and the chances of this city being held in their eyes were almost negligible. , Don’t look at those five big and three rough mercenaries who look very fierce, but their fierceness is only reflected in dealing with civilians, which makes many civilians feel hopeless.

The large number of people fleeing quickly attracted the attention of the palace. They quickly ordered the city gate to be sealed off and forbid anyone to enter or exit from the city gate. In the face of the civilians who were arrogantly blocked behind the city gate to ask for explanations, the reasons they gave were impeccable: Prevent Winster spies from entering the city.

Therefore, the city of Lusitas and the tens of thousands of civilians in the city can only wait for the almost invincible Winster army to approach the city.
