Release that Witch

111. Chapter 111 Battle of Eagle City (middle)

    The first free person who served as cannon fodder did not receive any resistance and had climbed up the slope.

    Forming an angle with the slope, the wooden fence pointing to the sky blocked their steps. The fence is not blocked, but leaves a gap for the spear to pass through. When the attacker destroys the log, the defender simply stands behind the fence and can use the spear to kill the opponent.

    But what surprised Fran Duke was that the people who were still standing on the wall were gone, and the whole periphery was currently unguarded. The leading troops quickly cut a few gaps with a small axe, and after dumping a few round logs, everyone rushed to the city. In a short while, the wooden city gate was also put down.

    “Let’s go,” Duke shook the reins and led the rest of the troops to the city gate. From the beginning of the siege to the city gate was laid down, in less than two quarters of an hour, what is Garcia Wimbledon doing? Fran frowned. Some people with a little combat experience know that when you abandon the city, you must leave a group of personal guards, or hire a courageous person who is not afraid of death. Go to the city to stop the enemy’s offensive and try to retreat as much as possible. The big forces are fighting for time.

    The Third Princess is not a stupid person, otherwise it is impossible so quickly that the entire southern region is turning her back. Why didn’t she arrange a group of defensive walls? A strong defense, a dexterous trap, no one to operate, it will only be a dead object. Fran Duke thought about it and decided to let the personal guard team go to the city to explore the situation.

    The result of the return of the Captain is still the same, and no resistance is encountered in the city. However, some streets are indeed blocked by wood and masonry, and his subordinates are already convening local people to remove obstacles.

    Fran no longer hesitated and led the rest of the troops into Eagle City. I am also a veteran who has been with Wimbledon III for many years and can’t be caught by a little girl. However, Timothy made a slight mistake in this move. If he can wait until he has captured the city gate and walks through the city directly, he can save a lot of time.

    Duke smelled a pungent smell through the city gate, not the carrion that often appeared on the battlefield, but a mixture of pine nuts, orange peel and incense. If you take a deep breath, you may even feel a bit fragrant.

    What’s this smell? He looked around and found no abnormalities. However, the ditch for the drainage of the earth wall was blocked, and the sewage flowed out of the channel and slowly flowed along the ground. Those dirty accumulations don’t know how long it has been left unattended, black and dark, reflecting the colorful light lines under the sun.

    Probably the smell of this pile of sewage, Fran shook his head and led the team to the castle area.

    Since you have won the Eagle City, you have to go to the Feudal lord Castle and City Hall to see if there is anything you can take. Of course, the city is likely to have been searched by Garcia, gold royal may not stay, but some of the larger crafts and decorations are also very suitable as a trophy. The carriage of the grain that I bring myself is slightly cleaned up, and it is better to use it for loading. As for the mercenaries, it is estimated that they have already gone to shops and farms.

    Regardless of them, Joey Duke is dead anyway, and who is the next successor is still a problem. At this point, it is a matter of tightness to grab the city from the bottom.

    After visiting the Feudal lord castle, Fran.Cheret found something wrong.

    The space in the castle, he thought, not just the coins, there is nothing left in the entire basement with cloth and grain storage. A few places hung murals, leaving only blank walls, bookcases in a book are not, even the feudal lord bedroom of the big bed are missing, the whole castle as a stripped light general.

    Is this something that can be done in a hurry? Fran felt faintly in his heart. If you didn’t carry these things slowly from the beginning, the castle impossible was searched so thoroughly.

    Just when he wanted to go to the City Hall to take a look, the North Gate suddenly raised a thick black smoke.

    “What happened, is it a fire?”

    “I don’t know, adult, I have already called Morial,” said Wei Captain. “Maybe the enemy deliberately set fire.”

    That’s right, Duke first thought of a trap, but he quickly realized that this method of sealing with fire was meaningless. First of all, not to say that you can bypass the city gate and climb out directly from the slope. It is light ignition. If no one is attacking, the organized team will soon be able to extinguish the fire.

    The correct usage should be to set up a soldier in the city. When the fire is everywhere, the enemy army will panic and launch a raid. This will effectively disrupt the enemy’s formation and even force the opponent. As he said, the trap of no one to operate is nothing but a dead object.

    Just then, the other three doors also smoked black smoke, and the north gate was already able to see the fire, and the fire was expanding rapidly, as if it was full of straw. There was a scream of civilians in the city, and it seemed that someone’s house was lit up.

    That wouldn’t be right.Duke thought, he is from the north door come in, where there is nothing to ignite, only a piece of open space! But how can the fire spread so quickly without firelights? waitThere was a flash in his mind for a year. Could it be that Garcia Wimbledon secretly recruited the witch?

    Fran touched the God Punishment Stone hanging around his neck, and his heart settled a little. If it is a fire of witch, he can just smash it in the past, and the flame of the demon can’t hurt him. And every member of the pro-military team wears this thing, causing little threat. As for those who have no money to donate to Church’s free person, Duke can’t take care of them at this time.

    The city has some evil doors, and he decided to go out and talk. The army can camp at the southern gate, both to monitor the Eagle City and to meet the new King’s return to the cavalry. Thinking of this, he ordered Captain to stop: “We are out of the city from the south, and you call the call number on the road to bring the team together.”

    OK

    The crowd immediately opened, but when the group came to the southern gate nearby, they found that the flame had burned to the city, the pieces of the house were ignited, and the heat waves that swept them forced them to retreat. The city people who had been hiding in the house and closed out at the moment also ran out. The streets were full of people, and even the sword of personal guard could not prevent them from panicking and fleeing to the unburned open space. For a time everyone seems to be caught in the sea of ​​fire, surrounded by smoke and flames.

    Calm You go to the well and fight the water,” Fran Duke quickly issued a series of orders. “The house doesn’t need to be piped. It just kills the obstacles burning on the street and clears out a road.” Don’t stop calling the number, let others know where we are! ”

    “Duke adults!”A Knight ran from the center of the city, not waiting for the horses to stop. The man had already jumped from the horseback, which was the former Morrison who was sent to the north gate by the defender Captain. “Adults, the fire at the North Gate cannot be extinguished! ”

    “What?”Fula asked in surprise, “Can’t you put it out?”

    “The flames burn on those Black waters,” she said quickly. “Not only will it not be destroyed by the water, but it will flow along the water! Adults, now the entire northern district is burning! ”

    “The flame that can’t be extinguished…”He muttered, “Yes, it seems to be the fire of the demon.”Then Duke shouted loudly. “Everyone shouldn’t panic. This is Garcia’s use of the evil witch, the fire of the demon!” As long as you wear God Punishment Stone, this flame seems to be terrible, but it can’t burn you! ”

    “So that’s it, may you be kind,” Morrie subconsciously stroked her chest. “What the big man, what should we do?”

    “There is nothing wrong with God Punishment Stone! Everyone is on the horse, we rushed over,” Duke waved. “These evils will disappear without a trace as long as they meet God Stone! ”He is paused, “Molly, you bring a group of people out first, I stay here to gather people who follow.”

    “Yes!”Female Knight nodded. “You take care.” Others, pay attention to keep up! ”

    Then she turned over and did not hesitate to rush towards the end of the burning street.
