Rise of the Empire Total War

Chapter 288 Soldiers approach Dukang

On April 30, 1115 in the mainland calendar, Charles led his troops to the city of Kang, the capital. After arriving outside the city, they immediately built a siege camp around the city. At that time, the city wall had been slowly closed, keeping these fleeing people out.

Therefore, they could only stand in front of the city gate and beg loudly for the defenders to open the gate, but the defenders on the city wall obviously would not overflow with sympathy. The cries outside the city fell on deaf ears.

The outcome of these people is already doomed. They were either trapped to death in the open space between the city wall and the besieged camp, or were killed indiscriminately by soldiers during the siege battle, but no matter what the outcome was, they could not survive. up.

And at this moment, a young man in a white robe walked out from the side of Winster's army. He approached slowly under the gaze of the defenders' archers, and finally stood under the city wall. His face was also seen by the defenders. Qing - this is clearly the Damian envoy who went to Winster a few days ago.

"Emissary Damian, how did you bring the Winsters back?"

On the city wall, the newly appointed military chief asked loudly. As soon as he finished his sentence, Damian took over his words and said, "Bernhard, the negotiations have broken down. The Winsters have detained me in the army. Now, let me come back now. Open the city gate quickly, I have something to report to His Majesty the King!"

"We can't trust you, Damian." The new military chief named Bernhard said, "Because you haven't come back, Pablo said that you betrayed us and took refuge in the Winsters, so His Majesty the King is angry. Your family will be deported from the country, and all your property will be confiscated.”

"What?" Damian was stunned. He looked at the archers on the city wall who were aiming at him. Has become a traitor.

Pablo has been hostile to him since he was in the Republic of Cunha, and it is not beyond his expectation to frame him now. Damian took a deep breath and said, "Bernhard, my good friend, tell me where my family was deported?"

"Unfortunately, I don't know, Damian." Bernhard said, he sighed, and said, "Come on, get out of here before I change my mind, or I will give the order to shoot."

"Then I'm leaving, Bernhard, I wish you good luck." Damian said, turning around and running in the direction he came from, without looking back, because he knew that Bernhard's threat was not groundless. I'm afraid they will actually shoot.

On the other side, seeing Damian approaching, Toolagris showed an elusive smile on his face, and he touched Hercule next to him,

Said: "I dare to bet you five silver marks, he was definitely driven back."

"Then I bet you that he will come back and join us." Hercule said, seeing a puzzled look on Tooragris' face, he explained: "If he is driven back, he will not only join our army but also join us." Where can I go?"

"It's not fair." Tooragris yelled with some dissatisfaction, "I feel like five silver marks are going to leave me."

"Hahaha, I'm here to thank you in advance for your five silver marks." Hercule said proudly, but the reality soon slapped him hard, because after Damian came back, he didn't Instead of proposing to join them, he expressed that he wanted to leave the Kingdom of Delj.

At this moment, Hercule couldn't sit still anymore. He ignored the playful smile of Olagris, and hurriedly asked Damian the reason. The latter didn't want to say it, but he was in the enemy camp surrounded by The shining blade can only briefly explain the reason.

Toolagris obviously didn't care about his reasons, he just waved his hand and said, "You can go if you want, as long as you don't act hostile to our army, you can freely travel in the land of the Kingdom of Delj walk."

"Thank you for your permission, respected General Tooragris." Damian said gratefully. Although Hercule did not raise any objections, the reluctance on his face was almost written out.

Damian quickly left the besieged camp. He didn't bring anything with him when he left. Tooragris thought it was inappropriate and asked him to hand him a dagger for self-defense. Damian didn't refuse either, but Thank you for accepting it, and then left under the watchful eyes of the two officers and soldiers.

After he left, Tooragris smiled again, and he stretched out his hand to Hercule as a gesture of begging, and said, "My dear Hercule, I seem to have heard you The five silver marks in the purse are calling my name."

"Damn it, Tooragris, you're lucky this time, and you may not win next time." Hercule said while taking out five very good and new silver coins from his pocket. Mark, threw it to Tooragris, who took the silver coins, counted them, and put them back in his pocket with satisfaction.

"Hercule, believe me, no matter what the bet is, I will win." He said proudly, the smile on his face could not be concealed no matter what, and at this moment, a soldier ran over quickly, half Kneeling on the ground, he reported to them: "General, an envoy came from Dukang. He claimed to be the foreign affairs chief of the Kingdom of Delj and wanted to see you."

"The chief diplomat of the Derri people?" Toolagris put away the smile on his face, exchanged a glance with Hercule, and said to the soldier, "Go and bring him here."

After the soldiers left, the two chief officers took the opportunity to discuss, and Hercule said, "I think it's another envoy who wants to negotiate peace with us."

"That's for sure, maybe the conditions will be even more generous than those proposed by Damian."

Hercule added: "I'm afraid I can't resist agreeing to their terms."

"Then think about the people of Ramirez. Thinking of their capriciousness will wake you up." Tooragris said coldly, "No matter what conditions the people of Delj put forward, we will not accept it. To cut the weeds and get rid of the roots."

"It's easy to take down, but it's hard to appease the residents here." Hercule said with emotion, "I'm afraid that the local residents will oppose the rule of us pagans who believe in Christianity, and often cause riots, just like those who came from the desert. The man in black who came out."

Listening to his friend's emotion, Toolagris smiled slightly and said: "Among the pagans we have come into contact with, there are no people who believe in Allah like those who have appeared. The Knights will not be soft on these heretics."

"You know, when the Teutonic Knights treat heretics, they will not be more merciful than the Inquisition of the Holy See."
