Chapter 379
"Be careful, the arrows are poisonous!"
The soldier screamed, and the places on his body hit by the crossbow arrows began to show signs of corruption, the muscles swelled, and the gray-white corrupted substances kept wriggling. The originally small wounds quickly became fatal.
A large number of rebel soldiers screamed and died of poisoning. When they stood up, they had been transformed into corrupted creatures.
"It seems that the corrupted arrows are very effective. The trees in the gray fog are treasures. It's a waste to use them for burning."
Field secretly smacked his lips. He didn't expect the arrows that he had suddenly thought of to be so effective.
Under the strong firepower, the rebels under the city could no longer bear the purgatory-like pressure and began to flee. Even if the supervisory team killed more than ten people in a row, they couldn't stop the fleeing.
After the humans escaped, the corrupted god-chosen clover didn't want the corpses to be bombed alone, so he controlled the corpses to retreat quickly.
"Let the cavalry kill the enemy's wounded and burn the siege equipment that the enemy didn't take away. Lynx, arrange for the soldiers to take shifts and rest."
Field quickly arranged everything.
"I didn't make a move, otherwise the victory could be expanded." Rosaria pulled Field's clothes and blinked, "Why didn't you let me attack?"
"We have too few high-end combat forces, we must first let them relax and tire, and get more information. Once we make a move, we must directly bite off a piece of their meat, otherwise it will be difficult to make up for the cost no matter how many rotten corpses we kill."
Most sieges last for several months, and Diaoyucheng even held out for 36 years.
The border fortress has an excellent geographical location, stuck between continuous mountain walls, and the night territory to the north, so only one side can be attacked.
At this time, in the gray fog.
Richard looked around the gray fog. The continuous rotten corpses had exhausted his patience, and all the slave soldiers died in battle.
The morale of the whole army was low, and there were complaints everywhere. A dozen people had already run away with fog lights.
"What kind of a shabby place is this? There is not even a road sign. No wonder the expeditionary army failed to recapture this place." He threw the map in his hand to the ground in annoyance and stepped on it twice. "I'm lost again. Damn it. Who advised me to attack the Starry Night Manor? Damn it."
Richard's Chosen One, Polly, smiled and said, "Don't be so angry, sir. Our core strength has not been greatly damaged."
"As long as we find the Starry Night Manor, everything will be fine."
Richard has already regretted that he underestimated the Northern Province and misjudged the terrain of the Night Territory: "This is a losing business. Field must have made a deal with the devil to be able to enter and exit the gray fog freely."
The gray fog environment is even more severe than the snowy mountains and rainforests. After entering, it's dark in front of your eyes. You can't even find the east, west, south, and north, and you have to resist the attack of the zombie tide at all times.
"Huh~"
A huge white cloth bag suddenly came out of the gray fog and fell to the ground with a dull sound.
"What is that?"
"Be careful of enemy attacks!"
The soldiers stepped forward carefully, used their weapons to pick up the ropes, and the cloth bag fell to the ground and scattered, and a pile of human heads rolled out of it.
"Fuck, it's a human head."
"Wait, isn't that Mr. Butler!"
"And the fort's sergeant Andrew!"
"The fort and Bull Fort, couldn't they...have been captured?"
After the soldiers saw it clearly, they were instantly furious. They had originally expected to go home and reunite after this battle. But now the bad thing is that they are still alive, but their home seems to be gone.
"Ah?" Richard stared at the head on the ground, his mind a mess.
"Be careful!"
A feather arrow shot over and was caught by Polly quickly.
"There is a letter." Polly tilted her head and took off the envelope in confusion.
"Let me see."
Richard took the envelope with trembling hands. On it was written in beautiful handwriting:
Dear Richard Baron Bull.
You will never believe what happened in your territory. Your butler and the sergeant of the fortress rebelled against the empire. The Shadow World Cult and the corpses occupied every place in the Bull Territory, even in the widow's closet.
Fortunately, the imperial army discovered them in time and wiped them out.
Your butler said that you defected to the rebels, but given the good reputation of the Bull family and your departure from the fortress to clean up the corpses in the Night Territory, we think there may be a big misunderstanding.
Please set off immediately and return to the Bull Territory to explain. Of course, don't forget to bring enough money for redemption.
The letter officer of the Imperial Legion: Xiaochuan-Sun.
Richard's head buzzed, and he felt dizzy and could no longer keep his balance. He almost fell down.
"It's over. How could it be? I've only been away for a few days." Richard's lips trembled, his face pale. "The imperial army can't move so quickly."
"Sir, what should we do?"
"Surrender. We can survive as long as we pay the ransom."
"I said it at the beginning. The empire is stillVery powerful, can't be betrayed. "
The magicians and fighting knights in the team gathered around, and fear had filled their hearts. Looking at Richard's bear-like appearance, anyone could guess that his rear was finished.
As for attacking Starry Night City? Who wants to stay in this broken place?
"I, let's go back."
Richard placed his hope at the end of the letter: bring enough ransom. After all, it has always been like this among nobles. No matter how serious the mistake is, as long as it doesn't make the big guys angry, it can be solved with money.
"You can't surrender, sir." After reading the letter, Baolitong smiled strangely, "You know too much. If you surrender, it will cause a lot of trouble to the sect."
"What do you mean."
Richard was annoyed: "I am the lord, are you going to disobey my orders?"
"I dare not, I just make a suggestion. We should go to Maple Leaf Fortress, where we have our people."
"Listen to me, go back and surrender. ”
Richard refused without hesitation: "As long as I surrender, give enough benefits and explain clearly, I can still keep the baron title. But if I escape, I will become a wanted criminal."
"Yes, Miss Polly, our food and fog lights can hardly support us to reach Maple Leaf Fortress."
More than a thousand people, people eat and horses chew every day, and the consumption of materials is huge.
Polley stretched out double blades from her sleeves, and a perverted smile appeared at the corners of her mouth: "Kill all the ordinary people, and the remaining materials will be enough for us to leave."
"No, they are all the elite of my family! Without them, I will have less capital to surrender."
Richard resolutely refused, mounted his warhorse, and shouted: "Listen to the order, set off to return to the border fortress."
"Humph, do big things but look ahead and behind. "
Shaking her head slightly, Polly sneered, and turned into a shadow and hid in Richard's shadow.
At this time, Field was looking through the battle log.
Griffin calendar, July 22 night.
Defeat the second attack, kill 400 rebels, and 3,000 corpses. The rebels are suspected to be the Chosen One of the Light, who opened the protective shield, covered the crossbow cart to destroy two of our flame towers and a catapult, and then left with injuries.
