King's Landing in France

Chapter 97 The main force of the rebels attacked
The black army defeated by An Ning was only part of the rebel army in the Konta area.

Now the rebels in the entire region are frightened by the "prestige" of the National Guard and ran to the core city of Konta.

As a result, a large group of rebels gathered in the city of Konta.

These rebels were all led by Colonel Gallup Donald.

Colonel Donald made a bold guess after summarizing the information from various places.

"The enemy is probably just a small army. Although it is fully equipped with artillery and cavalry, the total strength is not very large." The colonel said to the rebel mastermind in the Konta area, Archbishop Hart of Konta, "Although we have no artillery and cavalry, but we have [-] infantry, and we can win by virtue of our strength."

Although An Ning defeated 3000 people's rebels in the Battle of Apple Grove, in fact, he killed only a few hundred rebels, and with the wounded, 1000 people is not bad.

The remaining more than 2000 people were scattered. Although An Ning sent Christina's cavalry to chase down the rout, but Christina was only [-] cavalry and couldn't kill many at all.

At this time, most of the disbanded black army gathered in Konta again, under the command of Colonel Donald.

In addition to the various rebel armies that were originally scattered in various places, Donald has now assembled [-] rebel armies.

Moreover, it was different from the rebels during the Apple Orchard World War I. At that time, the rebels had been looting for a while, their military discipline was lax, and their fighting spirit was low.

The rebels who are gathering now have priests watching over them, so their military discipline is pretty good.

After all, most of the main body of the rebels are conservative peasants, they are relatively pious, and they are embarrassed to go too far in front of the priest.

Bishop Hart of Conta said with a straight face: "Are you sure? Rumors about the enemy have been spreading all over the sky recently. It is said that their commander is a well-known noble killer in Paris, and the troops they brought were also to capture the Bastille." The meritorious troops, their cavalry is still the cavalry regiment of the king of France, it is better not to underestimate the enemy."

Colonel Donald snorted: "I asked before, the so-called cavalry regiment of the King of France is actually the Queen's bodyguards, what's the use of a group of girls, when we win the battle, we can capture the noble ladies Issued to the soldiers as a reward."

Bishop Hart frowned: "What are you talking about, how can you do this?"

"Okay, when the time comes, we will send the noble ladies to the soldiers in a place where the priests can't see." Donald shrugged.

"You're going to hell," Hart cursed.

"I am a soldier fighting for the Lord. It stands to reason that we should go to heaven." Donald said, "My soldiers believed this and rose up against those patriots."

Bishop Hart pursed his lips and did not reply.

At this time, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in." Donald turned to look at the door.

The gate opened, and Donald's adjutant came in to salute: "Colonel, some civilians said that they were from Gaotang in the north of the city. They said that the army flying the tricolor flag came to them this morning, but a few officers came into the city to have a look Then turned around and left."

Donald: "Call them in, and I'll ask them myself."

After a while, two villagers, a man and a woman, were brought into the room.

As soon as the villagers entered the door, they showed timidity when they saw the cardinal, and bowed their heads devoutly crossing themselves.

Hart: "Don't be so formal, Colonel Donald has something to ask you."

The colonel took a step forward: "Look at me, are you sure you saw the army flying the tricolor flag?"

"Yes, sure! The flag is a tricolor flag, and there are round three-circle cap badges on the hat, and the officer has three beautiful ladies with him."

Hart: "That's right! It should be them."

The colonel raised his hand to signal the bishop to keep quiet, and asked, "Do you see how many of them there are?"

The male villager looked at the sky: "I was working in the fields outside the city when they came. When I saw them, I got down on the ground and let the wheat block me. The queue I saw was not very long. There were still people in the queue. Several carriages."

Colonel: "It's the artillery train. How many do you think they have?"

The male villager hesitated for a while, and said with a troubled face: "I don't know either. I think there will always be 2000 people from the length of their team. But I am far away, so I can't figure it out clearly. Don't worry if I'm wrong." Blame..."

At this time, his wife stepped forward and said, "Mr. Colonel, Bishop! It's too scary. The leader of the blue-clothed devil, after entering the village, he directly found my child and wanted to eat my child!"

The colonel hesitated when he heard this: "Are you going to eat your child? Uh..."

The female villager said emotionally: "It must be! Otherwise, what are they going to do? My son is only four years old. How can they grab a four-year-old child for questioning? They must eat my son! These people who don't believe in God demons!"

The colonel frowned, suppressing his desire to complain, and asked the female villager, "So, you saw the leader of the self-defense army directly?"

"Yes, he is not tall, and he doesn't look like a noble and educated master at all. He is obviously fighting a war, but he has four women with him!"

The male villager pushed his wife's shoulder: "Don't talk nonsense, I heard from old George, those are the female knights sent by His Majesty the King, and they are all just like that Orleans girl!"

"What kind of female knight, I think it's a concubine! Mr. Colonel, my good Mr. Colonel, they are all like this, and they must not be able to fight well. You should deal with them quickly! Don't let these demons bully us!"

The colonel coughed: "Okay, I see, you go down."

Female villager: "Mr. Colonel, get rid of them!"

The male villager tugged at his wife's sleeve: "Okay, let's go. Didn't you hear that Mr. Colonel told us to go?"

"What are you talking about! I'm talking to Mr. Colonel! You really, it's useless. When the devil in blue clothes wanted to eat our son, I was the one who went out and dragged him back. You knew you were hiding in the ground! "

"I'm not afraid!"

The two villagers bickered and left the room.

The colonel sighed: "It seems that the Self-Defense Forces from Paris did reach a place less than twenty miles away from the Conta."

Hart: "So what are you going to do?"

Donald was silent for a few seconds, as if he had made up his mind: "I want to lead the troops to attack. The enemy has artillery, so they must move slowly. Our troops can solve the accommodation problem on the spot, and attack with light equipment will definitely move faster than the enemy."

After finishing speaking, he raised his voice: "Come here!"

Immediately a lieutenant opened the door and came in: "Colonel!"

"Assemble the troops and prepare to attack."

The lieutenant was a little surprised: "Attack? The enemy army is overwhelming, shouldn't we defend the city?"

"Bastard! Where did the army come from? The enemy is at most 2000 people. We are going out today to make them look good!"
