The King of Knights

The sky was gradually shrouded in dark clouds, and the air revealed a hint of fury. Under the city, a group of knights in the distance was running towards the gate of the fortress, followed by hundreds of knights chasing them, and the most striking thing was probably what was in the sky behind them.

“Two-legged wyvern!” A soldier called out the creature’s name.

“The French have attacked! Ring the bell! Another soldier immediately alerted his compatriots not far away.

Several soldiers standing by the large bell immediately struck this alarm hard, and the bell sounded to the entire fortress, and for a while all the soldiers entered a state of combat readiness.

On the plain thousands of meters away, a dozen footed wyverns led hundreds of soldiers, chasing a dozen soldiers from Britain in front. The situation was urgent, but the people on the walls could not see what the pursuers looked like. They can only be judged by their silhouettes as Britannics.

“You, soldier!” Lucifer stopped one of the nearest young soldiers.

“Yes, King!” The soldier saluted.

“Do you know the identity of this person?” Saying that, Lucifer waved his hand. A peer-tall ice crystal mirror formed in his hand, where the appearance of the chased person in the distance was playing.

A white-haired knight was being chased, his appearance was anxious, and he had been injured in many places.

“General Ziegfried! He is General Siegfried! General Siegfried is not dead yet! The soldier cried out in joy when he saw it.

At this time St. George also came to the wall, and he went to Lucifer’s side and reported.

“Wang, Zigfei is the most outstanding general under my subordinates, and I am also the defender of the White Stone Fortress. When the White Stone Fortress fell before, his death was reported at the same time, and we originally thought…”

The mistransmission of intelligence led Joljos to mistakenly think that Ziegfried was dead, and he had not thought about searching before.

“It seems that he is not dead. You have to find a way to support them. However, in Lucifer’s opinion. There may be something hidden in this, and maybe even Zigfei’s current appearance is a deliberate bait released by the other party.

“I’ll send someone out of town immediately!”

“No, it won’t work. Don’t you think it’s strange. Since Ziegfried is so important, why did the other party only send so many people to pursue. Hundreds of people, it’s like coming to die. ”

Despite the presence of a two-legged wyvern, the number of opponents is too small. Once the people in the fortress support a few thousand people, they will immediately solve the other party. Siegfriedu has already run here, and the rational thing to do is to retreat and abandon the prey, not to pursue. Unless…

“What do you mean? It’s a trap! ”

“Maybe they want to do something with Siegfried’s life? The manager of the opposing team has a stake, he knows that we can’t leave Ziggy alone, and we will definitely save him. And what he needs is…” At this, Lucifer gestured to his feet.

“The time we open the city gates.”

“That’s right! If my guess is correct, there should still be enemy troops around me. They may have been hidden through magic and something like that. As soon as we open the gates, they will immediately start attacking. As long as this gate is laid and held for a while, you can wait for the arrival of the army. Lucifer calmly analyzed the current situation.

The situation in front of them is very delicate, if they don’t go out to save Zigfei, they will definitely fake the drama and kill the seriously injured Zigefei. This will undoubtedly shake the army’s heart, especially if the soldiers of the fortress kill him in front of him. This will make people think that the new king and St. George are very incompetent, and even the important generals cannot be saved.

What’s at stake! With this means, it is no wonder that the White Stone Fortress in Britain can be breached. Lothar? It’s a good opponent.

“Abominable! In this way, the city gate cannot be opened to rescue Ziegfried. St. George’s fist slammed into the wall next to it.

If this is the case, then you can’t risk losing the fortress to save Siegfried. Lucifer had a different view on this.

“No, rescue is fine. But the layout needs to change. The walls of this fortress were originally divided into two layers, inside and outside, weren’t they? Now that we know each other’s movements, we can also arrange accordingly. ”

The fortress was designed with the possibility of the outer wall being lost, so there was another wall inside. Of course, if under normal circumstances, the outer city is attacked head-on, then the inner city will not be able to support it for long. But at the moment, if the other party is playing sneak attack… This design is enough to bury them.

Hearing Lucifer’s words, Joeljos’s eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what Lucifer meant.

“I see, I immediately went to transfer the main forces here for arrangement.”

“Yes! It’s best to put the magic giant crossbow directly at the city gate and surprise them! ”

“Yes!”

“Duke St. George, the defense of the walls will be left to you. I will personally verify the military power of France. ”

Outside the city walls, the chase continues. The seriously injured Ziegfried eyes could not support for long.

And somewhere ten thousand meters away from the main gate of the fortress there is a forest. This area is shrouded in magic, so that people can’t see the inside, and this is where the command post of the French front is located, and it is surrounded by knights standing guard.

Lothar looks to be in his forties, and he wears Dirandal, the head of the twelve holy swords of France, around his waist. He was also accompanied by two young men, Anses, one of the twelve knights, and the eldest son of the current king, Pepin the Short, also named Pepin.

Pepin the Short gave his name to the great prince and the Dragon Legion, which was enough to prove his love for this son. In contrast, other princes, such as Charlemagne and Louis, did not receive much favor from the king.

Because Pepin was not one of the twelve holy swords but received one of the twelve holy swords, Anses did not get one of the twelve holy swords of France, but another holy sword that the dwarf king found. Its name is Excalibur.

It is said that this sword is a similar weapon built in the old empire based on the sword of the king of Britain.

“I said, old fellow, is it necessary to make this trouble? Deliberately let Ziggy fly go, and squatted here for a day in advance, and my body grew mossy. If I want to say, with my Flying Dragon Legion there, just rush over and smash everything in front of you. The arrogant face with short blonde hair was none other than Pepin, and his tone was very bad.

Anses instinctively frowned, and he said in place of Lothar.

“The marshal just doesn’t want to cause too much damage. Moreover, I heard that the new king of Britain has been elected and has rushed to the Dragon Scale Fortress. A strong attack will pay a lot of damage. ”

“You shut up, I didn’t ask you again. I asked about him. ”

“Maybe you should learn to be polite before calling someone to discuss. His Royal Highness! Lothar sighed and finally spoke.

He always thought that the prince’s personality was very problematic. Of course, maybe he still has a little level of fighting, but that’s more just an equipment advantage, it’s nothing. The king also threw him here for gold.
