Chapter 427: 【decision】

"Waiting quietly ... just waiting ..."
The old duke turned around and stared back into the distance. His deep voice didn't know whether he was talking to the girl or was talking to f6. After a while, he didn't turn around, but just turned his back on his back. Young people, Shen said, "Did you really plan to wait here and do nothing?
"I have done all the things that the teacher has told me, I have done enough, and even more." The girl's voice was smiling. At this moment, her smile, such a calm smile, But it seemed to be a bit cruel and cold, only to listen to her slowly: "The teacher once told me a word." "What?"

The teacher said: In this world, everyone has their own role, everyone has their own role, do their part, do what they should do, do n’t do less, but do n’t do more That ’s all.
The girl shrugged her shoulders, pulling a little radian out of the corner of her mouth:
I ’m just a weak woman, I ca n’t carry my shoulders, I ca n’t lift my hands, and now the city is a mess, what else can I do? I can only be careful Hiding in your house, stealing life, waiting for all this to pass. "
The Duke smiled and whispered: "Don't do less, don't do more, just do your part ... hum, that guy always likes to talk about these nonsense nonsense, it's annoying one by one and the most annoying The thing is, (Each of these words makes sense. "
He dried up and raised his hand: "Okay, you stay in my house, I promise, even if the city is turned over-over here, the rebels will never come to my house to harass. My old man has always returned There are some Jackpots. Those little guys, no matter how bold they are, they are not good in front of me. "
The girl nodded, and she touched her face lightly, and then sighed: "The cold wind blows the human face, Lord Duke, I will go down and rest.
She turned away, and Via stood beside her, and looked at the Duke deeply, as if she could not stop talking. The old duke glanced at Via and finally said, "If anything really happens ... I'll try my best to protect you Derek's life is gone. It's just that guy's temperament. You should explain it to me. I'm afraid that the real country will be lost and he won't survive. "Via gritted his teeth." Who cares about his life? . "
But just saying that, there was still a hint of gratitude flashing in the purple eyes, and then she turned around and went along with the girl into the room. "father!"
At this time, Roddy finally spoke, his face was eager to look at, looked at the old duke, and clenched his fists: "Are we really doing nothing? The family's family is under the grace of the country, at this moment is exactly ... "
"Enough." The Duke shook his head. His voice was a little tired. He turned around and looked at his son. His face was majestic, but there was a touch of love in his eyes, and he whispered: "These truths, my old man is better than you More clearly. Be faithful for the country, keep the day of death ... These things are not spoken, really at that moment, my old man knows how to do it, but now, you give me to stay at home honestly, I do n’t want to I ordered you to be and locked in a cellar. "But! !! "
The old duke finally turned and took two steps. His eyes were pressing on Roddy, slowly, word by word, "You do n’t understand what I want to do! I do n’t expect you to understand now! I just tell You, at this time, my old man has more important things to do than going to fight desperately with the rebels! I continue to live, far more valuable than fighting desperately, killing a few rebels!)) $ Harbour District is completely Occupied by rebels.
The Landis fleet, as well as the Royal Fleet of the Byzantine Empire originally stationed in the harbour, had urgently left port on the day the city broke.
There were originally some naval forces in the port area. Some did not have time to leave with the fleet and resisted to the last.
The rebels encountered a certain resistance when they captured the harbour area, especially those arrow towers in the harbor. Those towers were originally used against enemies at sea. The remaining defensive forces were tightened in the arrow towers of the dock. The rebels had to One by one, the arrow towers were knocked out.
There is also a large amount of materials piled up in the warehouse of the dock, many of which were transported by the Landis through the sea transportation line, and got such a large sum! After the $, the rebels even led to a small-scale battle. Several rebels almost fought for the ownership of these materials. Finally, Hughes came to the scene to suppress the intimidation.
After capturing most of the urban area of ​​Oswego, the generals, officers, and soldiers of the rebels almost made a small fortune in the paratroopers and seized enough benefits. The pockets of these rebels were stuffed with looted money, and they no longer wanted to continue desperately. The army has lost its war will, and almost everyone's mind is just how to get rich, how to enjoy these wealth from the search.
The attack on the palace is still not making much progress. At present, the gate to the palace castle has not been broken.
Hughes and El Salvador once went to Hagia Sophia to meet with the leaders of the church, but unfortunately, the church still showed enough slickness and turfness, and the rebels did not get any promise from the church.
Hughes understood that the church would not take a stand unless it was his own hands that cut off the emperor's head and the Byzantine Empire was completely dead. Until then, those sticks could be completely out of the way.
It was because he could not make the slightest persecution of the church. Even during the war, the emperor did not dare to persecute the church. Because everyone knows that this church has the most terrible power on the continent: the magician!
No one will go to the church in Lajah, annoying the church. Once the church announces that the magician will participate in the war, no one can afford it in the future.
Hughes only tentatively put forward his own requirements: hoping to make a public announcement in the name of the pope, announcing the depose of the Byzantine emperor's throne, and announcing that the identity of the emperor was illegal. But after this request was rejected, he had to give up his efforts, and even had to order some people to maintain order around the church, to prevent the rioters who robbed and robbed the red eyes in the city to harass the church. At this time, no one wants to offend the church. On the other hand, Hughes couldn't effectively command the rebels to take part in attacking the palace. He could only do his utmost to require each rebel to allocate as much of his troops as possible to consolidate the defense of the harbour area.
After the occupation of the harbour area, after paying a certain price, the remaining garrison troops were eliminated. The rebels immediately occupied an arrow tower along the coast, and stationed troops in accordance with Hughes's requirements. Equipment such as crossbows were added to these fortifications along the coast. To this end, Hughes had to make some concessions. He gave up the share of the large amount of materials in the harbor terminal warehouse to meet the greed of other rebels. In exchange, the defense of the harbor area finally made Hughes slightly. Rest assured.
After realizing that he might have made a big mistake and missed the opportunity, Hughes immediately realized his situation: if he could not settle the palace as soon as possible and set the overall situation, then the Landis would definitely fight back from the sea. Landis's participation in the war requires benefits, so they will definitely send reinforcements, which is almost certain!
In any case, you must complete the capture of the palace before the Landis can land! As long as his blade cut off the emperor's head, the situation was completely settled! Those Landis had to give up participating in the war, and they could just sit down and talk to the Landis slowly about the conditions for retreating. Just when the Throne of Time Seal reached the fourth day of breaking the city, Hughes finally waited for news from the sea.
The fourth day of breaking the city ... The Arc de Triomphe is still in blood. At this time, the Throne of the Seal of Insignia was one day longer than the three days that the Admiral promised while boosting morale.
However, the soldiers of the Arc de Triomphe are still fighting in blood, the tight guard camps, and the walls on both sides of the gate are still resisting the rebels on both sides.
El Salvador ’s army is still responsible for attacking the Arc de Triomphe. El Salvador is very clear about his situation. He did not save his strength like other rebels. After four days of fighting, both sides have been exhausted. El Salvador even sent his guard up and rushed to the Arc de Triomphe again and again.
Adrik encouraged the morale by dragging the wounded to fight in person. He fights again and again, and countless times to encourage morale with shouts. Although the time has passed for three days, the throne of His Majesty has not collapsed. In particular, a counterattack was used to drive the rebels out of the street. Salvador, the rebel leader, was too close to the front because he was on the front line, and was almost killed by the counterattack team in the chaos. Morale of the army.
The Arc de Triomphe is still firmly in the hands of the defenders. El Salvador has really done his best. He can't imagine why even a small number of defenders can have such a tenacious determination of resistance after the entire city has fallen.
There are corpses all over the street, and the battles between the two sides have no chance of breathing at all. The corpses can only stay on the battlefield in the street. The rebels and the garrison are all mixed together. The traces of the burning fire are still clear. The rebels tried to attack with fire, but a heavy snowfall at night made the plan fail.
A heavy snowfall gave Adrik's people some respite, at least the rebel fire attack plan failed. And the heavy snow made the garrison, who had been out of water for two days, finally got some drinking water.
The soldiers seized the time to seal the throne of the throne with the concentrated ice and snow, melted it in a large pot, and carefully took this limited moisture into the hands of each of the soldiers.
"Persist !!!! We have persisted till now! From now on, at every hour, the Landis may be killed from the sea! We are almost waiting for the dawn !!!! For the empire !!!!
Adrik raised his knife and shouted. In this case, he hasn't known how many times he has said in the past few days, but now, no matter how hard he tries, his voice can't be as full as it was the other day, his breath is a little weak, yesterday During the fierce battle, he was stabbed in the chest. Although most of the power was blocked by the armor, the opponent who cut him was a rebel general. The fighting force still caused damage to his body. Adrik I suspected that his ribs might be broken, but he could only forcibly brace him. He is now the only sustenance in the army, and he must not show a slight slump!
Maybe the next moment, the Landis will come.
Almost everyone's mind is turning this idea, although some people have begun to doubt and start to shake, but at this moment, they have no other choice but to believe this idea!
On the fourth day, the defenders of the Arc de Triomphe, inspired by General Adrik, repelled the rebels' eleventh charge, and by the time of sunset, the rebels finally retreated a little.
There are no more standing people in the barracks. The rebels have just retreated, and almost everyone is sitting directly on the ground. Both the general and the soldiers are panting, only the doctors from behind are nervous. Under the wailing cry of the wounded soldier, he ran back and forth, seizing the rare time to seal the throne of the Seal to rescue the wounded soldier.
Four days of fierce fighting, there were originally nearly 8,000 defenders, and the rest were less than 3,000. Adrik knew in his heart that with the power left in his hands, it was absolutely impossible to persist until tomorrow's sunset. Maybe ... Today, it's people like me, the last time in my life I saw the sunset.
Less than three thousand defenders, everyone is wounded, everyone is exhausted, and most of them have not closed their eyes for three days. Fatigue, wounded soldiers, hunger, and fear of death are all tormenting them. Will.
Some soldiers are too tired to spit blood, and archers have long been unable to pull their bows. Some archers have their fingers thinly chopped by the bowstrings, and some cannot even raise their arms. The last one falls today ... maybe.
When the sun went down, everyone, including Adrik, couldn't help but look at the Q light to the west, watching the sun set, and the afterglow of the sun disappeared little by little at the end of the sky. One by one r "Master."
An officer limped to Adrik, his armor was no longer recognizable, his shoulders were cut open, his flesh was blurred, and only three fingers were left in one hand, wrapped in gauze. Into a ball.
The officer stood next to Adrik, and then bent down deeply: "It is my greatest honor to be able to fight alongside you!" With the first one, one by one the officers walked to Adrik. Each
They salute Adrik, and then silently look at their commander. Adrik took a deep breath. At this time, he felt that he could no longer say anything to encourage morale. At this moment, everyone knew that they had reached the end of the mountain. At this time, let alone those morale words that inspire morale, but it will seem ridiculous. "Thank you!"
The general also paid a solemn salute, and then Adrik took a deep breath: "I have nothing else to say ... I'm proud of you, everyone! You are the true soldiers of the Empire, yes Hero! I ca n’t make other promises to you, I can only say ... I will fight with you ... When the last moment comes, I will die with you too!
No one spoke, everyone looked at Adrik quietly, and everyone's eyes couldn't see a shake.
Adrik burst into tears, then he took a deep breath: "Trumpet! Trumpet Triumph! Let the palace hear us! Let them know that we are still fighting! We will continue to fight!"
The trumpeter soldiers were already exhausted, but at the moment, under the order of Adrik, several officers stood out, took the horns, stood in a row, and sounded the horns!
The majestic empire triumphal triumph sounded. At this sunset, accompanied by the last rays of the setting sun, echoed in this ancient city. The generous tone, at this moment, seemed to bring a kind of Sadness beyond words! The trumpet sounded again and again, until the afterglow of the sun, and finally completely disappeared! "Get ready." Adrik gritted his teeth and Shen said: "They will be attacking at night. Everyone! This may be our last battle! Everything ... for the Empire!" "For the Empire!" All officers All straightened.
Just when the last tune of the Triumph finally came to an end, the trumpet came to an abrupt halt, and the echo gradually disappeared ...
Suddenly, in the distance, with the sound of the wind, there was a slight movement, which made Adric suddenly feel a muscle in the corner of his eye! He suddenly jumped onto a pile of boxes and looked nervously south. With the sound of the wind, the distant sound came intermittently, and it was not clear, but it fell into Adrik's ear, now it seemed like a thunder! !!
"The horn ... the horn ... is the horn ..." Adrik muttered to himself, his voice trembling, suddenly his eyes flashed, and he shouted loudly, "It's Randy Jin's bugle! It's Randy. Sri Lanka !!! Bugle !!! "
The trumpet sound was faint, but soon, the banging sound came from the south, like a thunderous thunder, and came along with the wind. In the distance, to the south, the direction of the harbor ... I saw the rays of light rising into the sky, rushing into the mid-air, bursting fast, and spreading "It is a signal at sea! It is a signal at sea! Randy newcomer warship Coming smoke
Suddenly, Adrik felt as if he were full of strength. At this moment, he was emptied. He stared at the sky in the south. When the night had come, the fireworks of the signal were in the sky. It's so clear! "Come! Finally ... here!"))) At night, the earth is still silver and white. The dense horseshoe sounds were tired and a little confusing.
When the horse team passed by the wind, rushing into the city gate, Xia Ya was finally relieved, as if afraid of a force all the way, only then finally dispersed.
When he rushed into the city, under the response of the welcoming cavalry, Xia almost turned over and fell off the horse. When several cavalry of Denzel City came up and hugged him, Xia was already cold all over the road. With ice and snow, Xia has been unable to continue. His body was numb and almost carried by soldiers into the garrison.
Although it was evening, when Charya returned, when he entered the city, the news came, and all the army officers and generals in Denzel were gathered in the garrison.
Charlie didn't rest, he didn't even have time to hang clothes, didn't drink a sip of water, and was immediately carried into the conference hall of the Shou Beifu.
Below the old crazy dog ​​Green, almost all of the senior generals in this small group under Her Majesty's gathered here. Everyone was a little surprised and a little surprised to see Xia Ya's return. Old Green was even more complex.
"I have nothing else to explain." Charlie's lips were blue and he refused a guard who was ready to come up with a blanket for him. He walked forward, stood at the coach's table, and looked at everyone: "Now, Everyone, listen to my orders! "
In the following commotion, everyone did not expect that the coach who had left for many days suddenly came back. UU read the book www.uukanshu.com and immediately asked for an order, and looking at his f6 spirit and expression, it was unprecedentedly solemn and serious. "Army, enter emergency preparations!" Charya's voice, although hoarse, was exhausted, but
"First Corps, immediately enter combat readiness, I will only give you two days to seal the throne of God, and the arms will be distributed to the hands of each soldier! If you do n’t have enough, go to Cato to receive it! I know the food reserve is insufficient, from now Enter the period of war! All food is considered priority by the supply army! I don't matter what method you use, within two days, get the food you can get! You must be able to deal with at least the reserve of the 30th War! Second Corps , Danzier City left a flag group, Mesta City left a flag group, all the other into the preparation equipment, at any time as the second echelon! This order ... Do not disobey! "
Green immediately became furious. He seemed to be glaring and asking, but Charya stared fiercely. Green saw the unprecedented seriousness and absoluteness in Charya's eyes. He closed his mouth subconsciously, deep He took a deep breath and, under the anger, Shen said, "Where's our attack?"
"South side! Manninger, Odin, Red Snow Army!" Xia Ya looked at the following people coldly: "I know you have questions in your heart! These questions are left, go ahead and prepare for what you should do As for the explanation, you will get it! But not now! Remember your duty! Do what you do n’t, do n’t do less, do n’t do more!
