Chapter 1512 1499. The nobles in the city
As the battle on the city wall became fierce, the ghost generals were killed one after another, and thousands of ghost warriors were sent to fail to capture the city wall of the North Pass. The headless horseman on the mountain finally couldn't sit still.
It stood up, its tall body was extremely tall even among the evil spirits, and it jumped over countless evil spirit warriors around it.
Stride to the bottom of the city wall, it saw the phantom of the archangel appearing from time to time on the city wall, the moment the white angel wings spread out, the holy light emitted was so dazzling.
The broken body has no head, but this does not mean that it cannot see the distant scenery.
There are two eyes on the bone armor at the shoulders that can turn forward and backward at will. It doesn't even need to turn around, just turn the eyes to see the surrounding scenery.
It stared at Suldak at the head of the city, as if remembering something from a long time ago.
At that time, he was still an evil spirit who had just crawled out from the depths of the abyss. They had traveled a long way that time. It remembered that the army walked for hundreds of days along the rotating ladder before arriving at the battlefield in the clouds. You can see it everywhere in the sky. These are the angels with white wings...
Memory is piece by piece, and many things may have been forgotten because of the age.
It even forgot how it survived on that battlefield.
But the resentment in his heart was getting heavier and heavier, and now the pair of white wings made him regain some long-forgotten memories.
The fire in his heart ignited in an instant, and black flames covered his whole body. In his eyes, there was only the white light and shadow on the city wall. a white light...
The Headless Horseman didn't get up to climb the burning city wall, he stared at the dark city gate hole in the middle of the fire.
Every step it took was heavy and powerful, and each step left deep footprints. When the speed surged to the extreme, the Headless Horseman had already arrived at the city gate below the city wall.
The evil ghost warrior who was stuck here trying to smash the door didn't even have time to dodge, the headless horseman's shoulder suddenly pressed against the big iron gate of the city gate.
The heavy iron gate is custom-made according to the gate of Hailansa City. It is made of giant wood splicing. The surface of the wooden board is also covered with a thick layer of iron plate, and it is closely connected with iron rivets.
In fact, there are some stones and sandbags filled behind the city gate.
The ghost warriors rushed into the city gate and have been trying to tear down the two big iron gates, but unfortunately they only peeled off a layer of iron on the surface...
Before they could make a move on the wooden door, the headless horseman rushed in from the outside, a giant crystal shield appeared in front of his shoulder, and slammed into the city gate fiercely.
…
Suldak only felt a huge earthquake under his feet, as if this section of the city wall was about to collapse.
The city gate hole below was even more dusty, and then the north of the city gate became a mess, and the shouts and screams of the aboriginal soldiers spread to the city wall.
Suldak's heart immediately turned cold. He knew that the situation was not good. The evil ghost warrior must have opened up the city gate below...
There are so many aborigines soldiers blocked under the city wall, and now they know that the battle situation is not optimistic only by the sound coming from them, but the battle situation on the city wall has not stabilized. There are more and more fighters.
Although the second-rank powerhouse on the city wall had already suppressed the Evil General, they didn't have much advantage.
Now there is chaos under the city wall. Once a large number of ghost warriors rush in from under the city wall, it will be a big trouble.
When he got close to the city wall, he glanced at the block to the north, and immediately saw the headless horseman rushing into the block where the aborigines lived, followed by a group of ghost warriors. Soldiers were killed and wounded.
That headless horseman was unstoppable. In front of it, the aborigine warriors were like weeds in the big meadow. With the scythe waved, they all fell down.
Even the few Rank 2 powerhouses who came together were knocked back by the blue long sword.
Seeing the chaos under the city wall, Suldak patted his forehead, knowing that if the headless horseman was not dealt with, the battle situation would continue to deteriorate.
Thinking of this, he asked Gulitum and Tago to lead the second brigade of constructed knights to guard the city wall, and he jumped off the city wall with the sword of Kulwin and the golden shield, and knocked down the few standing in front of him. The ghost warrior gritted his teeth and chased in the direction of the headless horseman.
…
As Kornberg County was completely captured by the Bena Army, the elite troops of the Bena Army, including thirteen Constructed Swordsman Regiments and thirty-five Heavy Cavalry Regiments, have now moved to the battlefield along the Kempato River.
However, the Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment, Archer Regiment, Logistics Regiment, Bed Crossbow Regiment, Catapult Regiment, etc. have returned to Handanal County one after another.
The remaining evil forces in Kornberg County will be encircled and suppressed by the seventeen light cavalry regiments of the Bena Legion. Only then will they be gradually evacuated from Kornberg County.
Duke Newman returned to Handanal City two weeks ago, and has held an internal affairs meeting for ten consecutive days in the parliament hall of the House of Representatives in Handanal City.
In fact, it is openly dividing the land of Kornberg County with the noble lords of Handanar County. The biggest cake already belongs to the Bena Army, but after all, Kornberg County has nearly one million square kilometers of land. Newman The Duke only allocated the most fertile part of his territory, and the rest of the land will be distributed to other lords of the Bena Legion according to their merits, and the rest will be brought to the internal affairs meeting of Handanal City.
This kind of meeting is more like a land auction for noble lords. The conditions are very restrictive, and no nobles have the right to buy it. soil of.
In addition, the ranks of nobles are subject to certain restrictions. For example, even if a baron has a powerful army and enough property, he can only own a small town before he is promoted to a viscount or earl.
Actually speaking, the land that Suldak currently owns does not match the title he owns.
He is currently only the third-class earl, but now he is a lord of a plane, and there are large territories in other planes. This situation is very unreasonable, but these lands are all Suldak's own The land developed by the lord army can be justified according to the four-three-three land distribution law of the Green Empire.
Now that Suldak's meritorious service on the battlefield of the Warsaw plane is enough for him to be promoted to Marquis, this matter will not be criticized.
There is no lack of noble lords in Bena province who hold heavy troops but are unwilling to send troops to participate in the plane war. After the war is won, they take out a large amount of magic spar to buy the territory. These lords are often not short of money. , the threshold for this kind of fighting to carve up territory is set up for them.
If you want to raise your title, this matter is relatively simple.
The normal method is to form a lord army, and then lead the lord army to participate in the plane war. If you gain enough merit, you can be promoted.
There are also abnormal methods, but they are very expensive.
Noble lords can buy those unidentified black magic crystals. These black magic crystals can only be obtained from the dark army of the abyss. Each black magic crystal represents the death of a dark army soldier. The currently known dark army Including: Nakma Legion, Nibru Legion, Faceless Legion, Demon Legion.
Duke Newman of course wanted to use the distribution of the territory of Kornberg County this time to earn back the huge cost of the Bena Army's eight-year defense in the Warsaw plane.
The fruits of victory are often very sweet, and the huge profits of war are also fully reflected in this battle.
Now, in just a few months, the Benar Legion has completely turned around.
Many heavy armored infantry regiments in Handanar County have already begun preparations for returning to Bena Province.
The aristocratic lords of Handanal County gathered in the parliament hall, and everyone was talking about it. The noisy sound made this place look like a vegetable market.
Duke Newman rubbed his forehead helplessly. All the cakes in Kornberg County had been divided up three days ago.
Benar Legion can return to the Green Empire decently this time.
Duke Newman is about to return to Bena Province.
He has been very busy recently and has been dealing with various things, so he doesn't want to sit in the parliament hall all the time and waste time with these noble lords.
However, the aristocratic lords in the parliament hall were all in high spirits. Many of them got the ideal territory in Kornberg County, and of course some didn't grab the good territory. Everyone sat here to discuss, what should they do in the future? How Kornberg County is governed.
These autonomous powers will eventually be handed over to the noble lords of Handanal County, and the Duke of Newman only needs to have the administrative appointment power of Kornberg.
The Bena Legion is also going home, and it will be the Legion of Noble Lords with territories stationed in Kornberg County.
But the current topic of discussion is not on this, which makes Duke Newman a little upset, and keeps reminding everyone to return to the original topic.
But these noble lords intended to bring the topic to the east and west reinforcement defense areas.
The Eastern Route Army is guarding the Naroda Canyon, where the evil spirit army has not been completely wiped out. The noble lords of Handanar County do not want to fight this evil spirit army, so they hope that the main force of the Bena Army will return When they were in Handanar City, they could destroy this army of evil spirits by the way, so as not to be unable to deal with it later.
In addition, this group of noble lords also hope that after the evil ghost army in the Naroda Canyon is cleaned up, Duke Newman will also take out the Naroda Fortress for auction.
The fortress was built as a military stronghold. When the war subsides in the future, as long as some immigrants are moved there, it will become a very good town, and there is almost no need for any further construction.
Duke Newman has been unwilling to let go of this matter. The main reason is that the Naroda Fortress was originally promised to Marquis Edmund Arnold. Otherwise, why would he lead an army of 100,000 to the Warsaw plane at this time.
There are so many lords' private troops in Handanar City, and no lord is willing to send troops to Naroda Fortress to garrison.
Now it's time to divide the cake, the noble lords in the city stretched out their paws, apparently looking a bit ugly when eating.
In addition, the lords of Handanaer County also raised one thing, that is, the West Route Army has already captured Moyun Ridge and successfully opened the southern gate of Moyun Ridge, which means The Bena army can drive straight through the south gate and enter the Moyunling Highlands to start a new round of warfare.
These noble lords had no idea at all about attacking the Moyunling Pass and garrisoning the Ganda Er Mountains.
But if it is to carve up a large area of territory on Moyunling, these noble lords simply want to sharpen their heads and drill in.
Who doesn’t know that the evil ghost army in Moyunling has been scared by the Eastern Route Army. It has already retreated to the largest station of the evil ghost army. Now the southern part of the Moyunling highland is full of adventure groups hunting evil spirits.
According to the information everyone got from the adventure group, there are very few evil spirits in the large land on the high ground...
At this time, as long as you lead the lord army to the high ground, those lands are simply for nothing.
I don't know what happened to the Eastern Route Army. At present, a large number of Eastern Route Army are gathered in the Dak Valley. The commander of Suldak even built a city wall on the north side of the valley. He ordered the army to garrison in the valley. Do not step half a step into the Moyunling Highland.
The current activities in the Moyunling Highlands are all adventure groups...
After hearing the news, the nobles and lords of Handanaer County were once again moved: How long will it take for such a good thing to happen? Since the Eastern Route Army is unwilling to send troops to attack the Moyunling Highland, we are willing!
Therefore, at this meeting, at least more than 20 noble lords took the initiative to apply to Duke Newman to join the Eastern Route Army, and entered the Moyunling Highland as an independent reinforcement to participate in the battle there.
This made Duke Newman a little annoyed, and there was no way to directly refuse.
Because once they refuse, these noble lords may really refuse to participate in all future wars organized by the Bena Legion.
Now unidentified black magic crystals can be seen everywhere in Handanar City, many of which flowed in from the battlefield of Moyun Ridge, where a large number of adventure groups hunted evil spirits on the high ground.
Almost 70% of the adventure groups in Handanar City have gone to Moyunling to pan for gold. It is said that there are countless adventure groups that have made a fortune. Many powerful adventure groups hunt evil spirits there, and even buy Arrived at the rare magic pattern construction.
Such news spread to Handanar City, how could this group of noble lords hold back.
The matter of dispatching troops to Moyunling has been discussed in the parliament hall for three days. As more and more noble lords expressed their strong will to the Duke of Newman, the attitude of the Duke of Newman, who was determined not to send more reinforcements, finally loosened. up.
As the group of noble lords made concessions and agreed to reinforce the lord army in the Moyunling Highlands to accept the unified command of Suldak, Duke Newman stamped his seal on the expedition declaration.
For a while, the entire city of Handanar cheered.
The people began to look forward to news of another victory from the Moyunling Highlands...
The noble lords are looking forward to the taste of the first bite of cake...
Duke Newman is making final preparations for returning to Bena province...
