Black Iron Crown - Chapter 713
Rainer’s light cavalry swarmed toward the villages of the Bazaran Kingdom like a pack of wolves, and a column of smoke went straight into the sky like a straight sword.
This is already the hinterland of the Bazaran Kingdom. Although the empire ceded large areas of the western territory to the Bazaran Kingdom in the past few years, there is no strong fortress to resist the invasion.
Therefore, the lords of the Bazaran Kingdom who withdrew from the battlefield did not hesitate to abandon the land, and at the same time took away a few soldiers who were used to maintain the rule.
Rainer is naturally innocent towards the villages that once belonged to the empire, but naturally there is no need to worry too much about the villagers under the kingdom of Bazaran.
The territory of the empire is so huge that Rainer has no plans to expand in a short time. Looting villages can not only reduce the pressure on logistics supplies, but also bring more trophies to the soldiers.
Most of the trophies produced in the village, Lena, didn’t look up to them, and after symbolically asking them to pay some, they gave all of them to the soldiers, which made the atmosphere of the soldiers even higher.
“No! Please! Don’t do that, my whole family lives on this grain!” The ragged, dish-faced little man hugged a hussar’s arm and pleaded bitterly.
The short man and the tall light cavalry in light iron armor formed a sharp contrast, but the light cavalry did not waver at all, kicked him away, kicked the peasant woman who wanted to fight him, and rushed into it. The house was crumbling and almost collapsing.
After taking away the tattered altars, pots, and grains, he also took the only old mule. After putting the trophies and grains on the mule’s back, he took his war horse and walked to the next house.
His behavior is already benevolent, because even more **** and brutal things are still happening in this village.
He chopped off the man’s head with a saber, kicked the young child to a corner, and beat the woman severely. He took away all his belongings and burned the house, regardless of the blood on the other’s face.
Such behavior is a normal phenomenon. It is a minority behavior to only take money and not kill talents. Generally, such people are living slightly better, living in the north instead of on the grassland.
The nomads Qingqi on the grasslands basically have no concept of good and evil. Before serving Lena and his vassals, these nomads must do their best to survive every day.
Blood ran all over the ground, and a messy village was like a girl who was ravaged by a mob, staying miserably in place, only the black smoke and the smell of blood permeating the air told what happened here.
With the mules and horses and the plundered supplies and trophies, they returned to the place of concentration, where the trophies were piled up.
The hussars don’t need to worry about this rallying point being attacked by the enemy at all, because most of the vital forces of the Bazaran Kingdom participated in the holy war with Mekasha. Apart from the defensive forces in various places, there is no such thing as arbitrarily mobilized. army.
“Very good! Transport these things to your Majesty, we will continue to do what we should do!” Tillihan looked at the endless stream of carts and horses and food and was very satisfied in the camp.
The light cavalry kept plundering their property and sending them to Lena’s army like a blood transfusion.
Below the walls of the Lugoin Fortress, flags were fluttering in the wind, and fifty thousand troops blocked the water surrounding the castle.
“Write to them, if you surrender, you won’t die, or we will attack the city!” Rainer first chose to intimidate, but he hadn’t fought anyway, so the price would be higher if the conditions were raised.
A crossbow bolt tied with the letter shot out from the camp below the castle and fell behind the wall of Rugoin.
In the main hall of Lugoin’s fortress, all the kings and lords of the Mujahideen gathered here, and everyone had a sad expression on their faces.
Pope Rosa finally got rid of the embarrassment of the previous days and restored the majesty of the past, but there is always less confidence in this majesty.
“Now that Rainer is approaching the city with troops, what should we do?” everyone whispered.
“I don’t believe that he can break this fortress. We have 20,000 people here to hold on, and we can even hold this castle until we die!” a king said with a cold snort.
“Oh, you are not worried, we are not happy to be trapped here, I just want to return to my country now, this war is wrong, I shouldn’t…”
“Are you questioning the pope’s crown?”
“No… I didn’t mean that…”
Listening to the noise of the crowd, Pope Rosa’s face became more and more ugly. The failure of this war directly caused the influence of the Rosa Church to plummet. This group of countries that are willing to support the church suffered heavy losses. It is conceivable which other countries will have it. What kind of thoughts.
The supporters and allies of the church have suffered huge losses, and even the strength of the Rosa church has declined sharply. He has already thought of the difficult situation the church will face next.
“Under the crown of the Pope…” Everyone looked at Pope Rosa. Although his prestige suffered a severe blow after this war, the kings also knew that there would be no results if they were to fight with others. It would be better to let the Pope come. Take this idea.
Pope Rosa squinted his eyes slightly, and he was full of regret at this time.
“If we can, we’ll find a way to talk to that Rainer…”
After a pause, he said: “It’s a big deal, we recognize his emperor’s name, I believe he will not refuse!”
Listening to Pope Rosa’s words, the kings nodded their heads. They are all self-interested. The benefits they hold in their hands are what they care about most. Since the pope did not exchange their benefits, they chose to recognize the emperor. Name, this is undoubtedly a benefit without expense.
The kings looked at each other and said one after another: “Then trouble the Pope!”
“Mianxia really worried about the people of the Father!”
“The mercy under the crown is like the divine light shining on the whole world of sacred religion!”
And just as the flattering sound continued in the hall, a guard in armor knocked on the door and walked in.
He gave the crossbow with the letter in his hand to the king he was loyal to.
“Your Majesty, this was shot by an enemy from outside the city!”
When the king opened it, he was furious.
He hurriedly handed the letter to Pope Rosa~www.mtlnovel.com~ and said angrily: “Under the crown, that Lena is too deceiving!”
At this time, Lena looked at the endless supplies in front of him, with a weird smile on his face.
The villagers looted by the light cavalry were very miserable. He knew very well that wars have always brought people pain, but the killing would not stop there.
When the enemy slaughtered the people of the empire, the hatred between the two sides had already been forged, and Rainer was happy to go for an eye for an eye for a tooth.
Although the massacre was due to the greed of the nobles, those nobles would not die because of this. Such revenge was limited to the people at the bottom.
Rainer sneered, class hatred was transformed into national hatred. I am afraid that this kind of “justice” will not be seen through for hundreds of years, and his rule will continue with such ethnic contradictions.
“Justice will not be late! Justice will come!” Lena shouted loudly, and the soldiers under his command also shouted with passion. They felt the hatred between the two nations!
