The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 702: West Gate Broken

Looking at the poisoned wine handed over by her husband Richard Pohl, the Margaret County Lord said with contempt:

"You are really my good husband. You handed me the poisoned wine with your own hands. Wouldn't it be better to kill Henry, the tyrant, and take refuge with my brother? You know, my brother promised to make our child a duke..."

"Don't say it, your brother will not succeed!" Richard Bohr said firmly.

"Well, I can't persuade you, Henry's loyal dog. However, you hand me the poisoned wine now, and when Chengpo is over, my brother will not let you go. I just hope , you can take good care of our children. Those children, after all, are my children, my brother will never treat them badly..."

"His Majesty Henry will not treat them badly!" Richard Bohr said unmoved. He knew that his master was suspicious, and it was best to be more upright.

"Okay, please put me in the coffin as soon as possible! Children, goodbye..." After that, the Princess Margaret calmly took the poisoned wine glass and drank it...

It didn't take long for the Princess Margaret to die of poisoning...

"Wait... I suddenly remembered, what happened when she sent someone to Ximen to watch?" Henry VII remembered something and hurried over. But when he arrived, the Princess Margaret had already died of poisoning...

"What does she mean by sending someone to Ximen to watch?" Henry VII thought worriedly. However, at this time, Princess Margaret was dead, and the attendant who was sent to Ximen to observe also died on the spot. So, no one knows the inside story.

The cautious Henry VII sent troops to guard the west gate for the night, but there was nothing unusual, so he had to give up.

"Maybe, that's a trick..." Henry VII thought.

However, for the sake of safety, Henry VII sent a large party to ambush at Simon's place at midnight the next day. But until three o'clock in the morning, there was no movement in Ximen.

So, Henry VII's men had no choice but to go back with their men and horses...

It was not until after 4 in the morning that more than 100 people walked out of a small courtyard in Ximen one after another...

"Hehe, fortunately they withdraw, otherwise, it's really inconvenient to do it..." The leading North Sea Chamber of Commerce spies Kane and Robby said with a sigh of relief.

Previously, their spies had been scouting the roof, and only sounded the security alarm when they saw the British leaving.

In fact, in Marin's army, the night attack was never at midnight, but around four or five in the morning. According to Marin, this is the time when the enemy is the most sleepy and the defenses are the most slack. If it is winter, it is not too late to launch a raid after 5 o'clock. And now it's summer, and it's half past four. Therefore, the night attack around 4 o'clock is the most suitable...

More than 100 people in the yard put on wood chips and armors, and after holding their swords and shields, Kane took out a Kongming lantern and lit it up into the sky-this is the code for breaking the door...

It is inconvenient to make a sound in the middle of the night, so it is more appropriate to raise a small Kongming lantern to the sky.

Soon, the scouts under Marin's command outside the city also saw this small hole light through the binoculars, and reported to Marinhui who had been waiting on the side for a long time:

"Grand Duke, the city people are ready!"

"Very well, everyone is ready to enter the city. The cavalry are all mounted, and the rest must follow!"

After speaking, the army began to slowly approach the West Gate of London, but be careful not to disturb the enemy...

Inside the city, Kane and Robbie took more than 100 people out of the yard, walked onto the street, and rushed to the city gate at the west gate. At the same time, Kane also brought a powder keg...

After arriving near the west gate, a person suddenly appeared from the side alley, startling everyone. But Kane and Robbie seemed to know and asked lightly:

"How's it going?"

"Don't worry, there are no enemies around, only more than 100 people in the city gate and the enemies on the city head!"

"That's good!" Kane and Robbie nodded, then waved to their opponents, signaling everyone to follow...

After approaching the West Gate,

Kane took out his knife and shouted in a low voice:

"Go!" After saying that, everyone rushed up...

The more than 100 guards in the Chengmen Cave were actually quite unlucky, because Margaret's spies were haunted near the West Gate last night, and they didn't sleep at around 12 o'clock tonight, just in case someone raided. But after twelve o'clock, no one came to raid. After 3 o'clock, it seemed that there was no danger. The army who assisted the gatekeeper left, and the guards in the gate hole also fell asleep. After all, we didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and everyone was really tired...

Unexpectedly, just after they fell asleep for a while, Kane and Robbie rushed into the city gate with people...

When more than 100 people rushed into the city gate hole, most of the guards in the city gate hole were asleep, unable to wake up...

"Enemy attack!" the sober British soldiers shouted. But it's a pity, just after he finished calling, the comrades hadn't woken up yet, and the enemy had already rushed in...

In desperation, the handsome warriors who woke up had to rush into battle. Because they fell asleep, many people's swords were not around, and they needed to get up and look for them.

In the chaos, the handsome man in the Chengmen Cave was in chaos. It didn't take long for them to be defeated by the "rabble" North Sea Chamber of Commerce's spies and the outlaws hired by the Margaret County Lord...

But at this time, Kane and Robbie were also dumbfounded. Because, they saw that behind the city gate in the city gate cave, a lot of debris was piled up...

Fearing that someone would attack the west gate, Henry VII specially piled up a lot of things in the gate of the west gate to block the gate. Although it is not as good as the situation where the North Gate blocked the gate of the city, it did make Kane and Robbie feel difficult.

Although it is said that Kane and Robbie's 100 people can clean up these things quickly, the problem is - the British army will not give them too much time...

The handsome man at the top of the city has been alerted and is organizing an army to go down the city wall. If they don't clean up the debris in the city gate hole as soon as possible, they will not be able to open the city gate...

Fortunately, Kane brought a powder keg. So, Kane gritted his teeth and said:

"Everyone, exit the city gate hole and block the stairway down the city wall, I'll blow the door!"

After finishing speaking, everyone withdrew from the city gate hole and went to resist the British army rushing down from the city wall. They have shields, sword and shield soldiers are best for defense...

When there was no one in the city gate hole, Kane pulled open the bricks blocked in the city gate hole and buried the powder keg in it. Then, dragged out the fuse, picked up a sheep oil lamp in the city gate hole, and lit the fuse...

After lighting, Kane immediately threw away the sheep oil lamp, and ran out of the city gate without looking back...

"Boom--" After a loud bang, the things piled up in the city gate hole were really blown up, and no longer piled up behind the city gate. But the problem is - the door didn't blow up...

Kane didn't see it well, and hurriedly shouted:

"Come a few people, follow me to open the city gate!"

Then, under the leadership of Kane, several North Sea Chamber of Commerce spies ran into the city gate...

Several people worked together to break the iron bolt of the city gate (this thing got stuck after being bombed). Then, he worked hard to clear the scattered bricks and stones next to the city gate, and slowly opened the West Gate of London...

"Quick, the gates are open! Rush in!"

At this time, the first to arrive was a hundred cavalry. But it is a pity, because the gunpowder keg actually exploded inside the city gate, and now the city gate hole is a mess. This also led to the fact that Kane, Robbie and the others fought their lives and only opened the city gate, but only opened a large gap, which could allow people to pass through, but don't think about the horses. If you want to open the city gate, you have to continue to clean up the scattered bricks and stones in the city gate hole...

Seeing this situation, Kahn, who led the charge, made a decisive decision and turned back and ordered:

"All dismount, walk into the city gate, be sure to guard the city gate hole!" After speaking, Kahn dismounted first, carrying a mace, and got into the city gate hole. The other 100-odd cavalrymen also dismounted, threw away their lances, drew their knightly swords, and followed Kahn into the chaotic city gate of the west gate of London...
