Chapter 423: Misfortune II
Chapter 423 Disaster II
On the fourth day of occupying Gumu City, an envelope representing the most urgent military situation was delivered here.
All the lands in the kingdom originally occupied by the empire were recovered, and Varane III took the opportunity to expand his army. Anyway, the residents thought that they could no longer eat at this time, so they might as well join the army and earn a living.
Many residents of Navarran City who lost their homes also chose to join the army. In addition to solving food and clothing, they can also find a place to vent their anger.
Varane III assembled an army of 50,000, followed behind his golden chariot, and went straight to the ancient wooden city...
…
"Your Majesty, are you sure?"
After hearing Varane III's order, an officer looked at their king with confusion.
"Huh? Didn't you catch that?"
Varane III began to feel a lot of dissatisfaction, and his royal order began to be questioned. It seems that he really needs more glory, otherwise someone will question the strength of his Varane royal family.
"This, this..." The officer hesitated.
Varane III just ordered to use heavy siege weapons to attack the ancient wood city...
Although the ancient wooden city is not big, there are still soldiers in the army whose hometowns are here, and the ancient wooden city is all subjects of the Navarran Kingdom.
"The persuasion letter has been issued for half a day. This is the path they chose."
Warane III didn't care about the residents in the city. He didn't even care about the slaughter of the royal city. What he wanted was the final glory of his life.
Anyone who stands in his way to glory is an enemy!
"Attack!"
Varane III personally issued an order to the siege troops.
The king's command is absolute.
Although the siege troops frowned, they still cut off the hook lock of the large catapult in front of them.
Bang Bang —
The powerful buckle of the trebuchet made a loud noise, and smashed towards the ancient wooden city with a huge flint that was still burning.
"Lord! They're attacking!"
Needless to say, Xiu Yin also saw it.
Hmph, Varane III really did it...
Xiuyin silently sweated for Varane III. This small city should obviously belong to the Navarran Kingdom, but Varane III directly used large siege weapons to attack this parapet, it is only pitiful. The two-meter-high little city of…
The large trebuchets had a very long range, and some of the flints they threw hit the city wall, causing a very large gap to appear in the already somewhat old city wall at this time.
But more flints flew into the city.
Boom!
Boom!
The flint fell to the ground and immediately ignited a large sea of flames.
It’s okay if it lands in a place where no one is around, but once it hits the houses in the city, these houses will become unrecognizable in an instant, leaving behind a piece of burning ruins.
"Quick, go to the fire, you, you go there, you go there, quick!"
Hans stood in the middle of the street in the small town and was directing the residents of the city and a part of the guards to join in the work of treating the wounded and preventing the spread of the flames.
Not long after, the small town was already covered in thick smoke.
"Stop attacking!"
Varane III has enjoyed enough of the visually pleasant feeling brought to him, and the next step is the highlight.
"Next, let's go to town!"
Varane III sat outside his golden chariot. He wanted to witness the destruction of the Lord of Morrowind, Huine Neumann, with his own eyes.
"That kid, if you really let him go, I'm afraid he might really come up with some tricks."
Varane III began to admit that Xiu Yin had some abilities, and this ability was enough to make him a star in the southern part of the mainland.
"Unfortunately, sometimes it's not good to be too confident. If you obediently return to Morrowind Territory at this time, you may be able to live happily for a while."
Varane III felt that he could guess Xiu Yin's intentions.
Although the ancient wood city is inconspicuous in the southern part of the kingdom, its remoteness has always made the residents here somewhat disobedient to the assignment of the king's capital, and even the tax ministers sent by the king's capital are often coerced and lured by the local local snakes to become the city's partner. Wang Cheng's accomplice who sings a different tune.
Xiu Yin chose to occupy here, there must be people who are here will not reject their ideas too much, and Varane III also knows that from the ancient wooden city to the eastern border, it is a relatively short distance to Great Lorraine A shortcut to the southern part of the Empire.
"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that I'm just a brat after all, naive, ha ha!"
Varane III asked his subordinates to push him onto the carriage of the golden chariot. He had to sit higher. The angle of overlooking made Varane III feel that he would become the first one in the southern part of the mainland to create a sense of history in the Qiyao era closer...
…
"Isn't this Master Xiu Yin?! Sir, it's dangerous here, hurry to a safe place!" On the street, when an old woman saw Xiu Yin, she hurriedly stepped forward and said to him. The old woman's house was smashed by flint Bad, she had to find a clean street and blame Varane III for attacking this small town.
Seeing the enthusiasm of the old woman, Xiu Yin knew that all of this was due to the fact that the leader of Morrowind had done enough to gain the favor of the residents of the small town these days.
Tax exemption, helping the orphans and widowed elderly here, and providing jobs for the idlers. At this time, a large number of soldiers led by Morrowind are braving the fire to rescue the property of the residents of the small town.
The two completely different styles of the Morrowind Territory and the Navarran Kingdom immediately caused the residents here to have completely different ideas about the two sides.
"Lord Xiu Yin won't abandon us, will he?"
"Yes, Lord Xiu Yin, this battle is too difficult, if it is really impossible, please take us along!"
"Yes, yes, Lord Xiu Yin, please don't abandon us!"
…
Xiu Yin appeared on the street and was immediately surrounded by the residents here. They knew that outside the city was the army of Varane III, and Xiu Yin had only 10,000 troops here. The difference in combat strength between the two sides was too great.
Hans hastily asked the guards to isolate Xiu Yin from the residents here. Hans had to consider Xiu Yin's safety. After all, this is not Morrowind Territory, and there may be some residents here who want to make contributions to the Kingdom of Navarran.
"Don't worry everyone, Huine Neumann will never give up anyone who is loyal to him!"
Xiu is blessed with sound amplification magic because of his voice. Although he is not very good at speeches, it is still possible to say something that makes these people feel more convinced by him.
"The glory of Morrowind will be with you!"
There is nothing more important than glory in this world. Xiuyin exchanged the glory of Morrowind for the loyalty of these residents.
In the eyes of the residents, Xiu Yin's words carried enough weight, and glory was the most important thing in a family.
But in Xiu Yin's eyes, this is a costless transaction, because there is no honor in his world view.
