Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 418 The Oath
Stannis wanted to cry, but now he only had so few soldiers on hand, so he had to bite the bullet.

After resting for a day, the King of the Eastern Realm took such a poor person on the road to the royal city. Although he felt that such a small number of people might be killed without even touching the walls of the royal city, he had already made a promise. Nuoyan can't do nothing and just run back in despair, and besides, the god of fate has been kind to him until now, so maybe he was lucky enough to capture the king city?At that time, I can comfortably be the king of Tanis without having to worry about my head being chopped off every day.

Sure enough, God seemed to bless him again, his troops just set off, and the duke's territory, which had already entered summer, began to produce heavy fog for several days, which well hid the traces of this surprise attack troop, even if they encountered the enemy's The patrol team, Charlie as the vanguard can also quickly deal with them before they have time to warn.

In this way, relying on half luck and half prudence, this army unexpectedly captured the gateway of the king's city, Shining Silver Town, without anyone noticing. After capturing all the two hundred Garcia defenders in their sleep, There is nothing in front of Nice that can stop him from going straight to the throne in the city, except for those tall city walls.

Sure enough, the news that he captured the gate of the royal city in one fell swoop shocked the entire principality, but just as he planned before, people on all fronts of the principality were stuck by the opponents, making it impossible to quickly return to help. Only then can they return to defense and support, which means that Stannis still has 240 hours to capture the royal city.

But looking at the 100-foot-high epic city wall in front of him, Stannis said that it was too difficult for him to use the resources at hand to capture this big city, and the troops given to him in the southern border were too little or even insufficient to complete The siege also lacks the necessary siege equipment to launch a strong attack, and after his man-made siege towers and impact hammers, I believe that Garcia's reinforcements have already returned, and most of them are infantry, and they really have nowhere to escape. escaped.

However, there is good news that there are only 500 garrison troops in the royal city, and what they need to guard is a city with 5 people. There are even less than 500 people guarding every 10 meters of the wall, so Stannis can concentrate his forces Attack from any direction.

Stannis deployed all his people in Silver Flash Town, and began to sit in front of the map and ponder how to use these scarce resources in his hands to capture this impenetrable city, maybe he could bluff?Capture some civilians in the town and put them on the armor and weapons of the captives as your own people to increase their momentum?Maybe when the time comes, the Duke will be frightened to abandon the city and surrender when he sees so many people appearing in front of his city?No matter how bad it is, the alliance under the city will be signed.

However, this idea was quickly vetoed by Charlie, because half of the garrison in the city was Garcia's direct lineage, the Black Watch. It was done by ordinary civilians indiscriminately, and the consequences must be unimaginable.

But the ten-day period was almost over halfway, and Stannis was still at a loss for the city in front of him, until he heard a loud sound of horseshoes outside the town on the fourth night.

When he heard the guards shouting, Stannis kicked off the quilt, drew his sword and rushed out.

"So fast!" Stannis yelled in disbelief. He didn't expect Garcia's reinforcements to appear in the city in only four days, so wouldn't he be dead!

But Charlie, who was in charge of the security mission, didn't issue any warning missions. Could it be that he really betrayed himself as Advisor Romon feared!
"This bastard!"

Stannis wanted to find other people to organize resistance, but found a small burst of cheers in the town square not far away.

The king, who was only wearing pajamas, walked over barefoot, and found that a group of strange cavalry indeed appeared in the square, but their armor banners did not have the coat of arms of the Garcia family.

So who are these guys?

Just as Stannis looked confused, the guy who rushed into the town first lifted his visor, revealing Robert's smug face from inside.

"radish!"

Stannis had no idea that this handsome knight in bright clothes and handsome appearance turned out to be his little brother who was full of wretchedness.

But the young leading knight is indeed Robert, unless he has a twin brother, "Salute to you, King Tanis, I have led the Griffin army here to serve you!"

Stannis stood there with his mouth wide open. He couldn't understand the situation now. Didn't the Griffin family that Robert mentioned already perished?Where did he get such a whole army, and the number seems to be quite a lot.

At this time, Robert had already dismounted amidst the cheers of the crowd. On his shiny armor was a gilded griffin. Stannis had never seen this pattern before, but he still judged that it was indeed lost. The coat of arms of House Griffin.

"Boss, I know you're very excited, but don't come here to welcome me in such a costume, right?" Robert still mocked Stannis with sarcastic remarks, but now Stannis couldn't care less about his attire, and quickly shouted in surprise.

"Are these yours?"

Robert nodded happily, "Yes, there are a total of [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, and they are all under your command now!"

"But...but where did you get an army?"

Robert turned his head, with sorrow in his eyes, "These people used to be under the command of my father, Duke Griffin. After the death of the Griffin family, most of his army was forcibly disbanded, and the rest escaped Garcia I lived in seclusion and waited for this opportunity to prove myself again. When they heard my name, they took the initiative to find me and said that they would never forget the glory of being a golden griffin army, and they are willing to continue to serve me Serve, because most of them live in seclusion around the royal city, so it is easy to gather, so it took me a little time to recruit and gather them."

After hearing what he said, Stannis looked behind him. Sure enough, these cavalry and infantry were all elderly people. Although their beards and hair were gray, their eyes were still full of determination. Stannis knew that they had been waiting for this opportunity. Waiting to prove to the world the oath they once made, to prove that 'the blood of gold will never be cut off'!
"But these people have families, don't they? How could they throw it all away to serve a man long dead?"

Robert also shook his head. His father died when he was very young, and he couldn't even draw a portrait of his father in his memory.

"Maybe this is the oath for a so-called man."

The two men looked at each other at the same time, and now they have to fight for their oath!

Stannis, in his pajamas, raised his sword and shouted.

"It's time for Garcia to pay for his blood. Conquer this city, only today!"
