A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 110. Chapter 110
After closing his eyes and leaning against the city wall for a while, after the violent dizziness passed, Gallan got up and stood up straight.
When he got up, his whole person shook slightly, as if he was about to fall.
But in the next second, he forcibly supported his body and allowed himself to stand on the ground.
Just when Garlan’s body shook, Kaihus, who had been watching him silently, wanted to reach out and help others subconsciously. However, as soon as his hand moved, he saw that Garlan himself held it back, and then silently retracted his hand.
He stepped aside and watched Garlan step forward in silence.
Garlan walked forward along the city wall. He walked very slowly because his body was already overwhelmed. The hood of the cloak covered his abnormally red face, only exposing the wet blond hair outside.
Where he was passing by, the soldiers who were exhausted and slumped under the wall to rest cast their eyes on him.
Their bleak eyes only showed a little brilliance when they saw him.
Their gloomy faces only regained their anger when they saw him.
Gallan’s heart was heavy.
Even with the increasingly blurred vision, he could see the corpses lying on the road that he was walking on. Among them, there were the corpses of pirates, and many more were the deaths of countless Tozes soldiers. The corpse lying tragically on the ground.
Some people showed pain on their faces.
Someone kept their eyes wide open.
The bloody water soaked those mutilated corpses.
The scenes he saw before him seemed to be walking in hell, which made Garlan’s heart tighten, and his gaze became more and more tranced.
He gently exhaled a hot breath.
“Prince……”
Beside, a faint shout came from suddenly.
Gallan subconsciously turned his head to look.
On the side of the road he had just walked, a thin boy was sitting under the city wall, looking up at him with reverence, and showing him a shy smile.
After a glance, Garlan’s chest was tight.
He saw that the young man’s cut off arm was bleeding in the moor, and he saw the young man’s other hand covering his waist, the whole hand being stained red with blood.
In the huge hole in the waist and abdomen, internal organs are faintly visible.
Gallan walked over and squatted down in front of the boy.
He looked at the boy and opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn’t make any sound.
At this moment, he couldn’t say a word.
He could only stretch out his hand in silence and press it on the back of the slave boy’s hand that was soaked with blood and internal organs.
The slave boy who was awkwardly pleasing him to eat more these days was about to die at this moment.
The young man he brought to the battlefield was about to die.
Countless slaves who took to the battlefield have died.
It was he who put them on the road to death.
“Prince… please don’t show such an expression…”
The dying slave boy made a faint voice, but he smiled at Garlan.
“Although I am dying… but… the prince…”
He spoke intermittently.
“These few days… are the happiest… time since I was alive…”
He smiled from the bottom of his heart.
“No one… despise me… despise me and curse… I… um… in these few days… I am no longer a lowly slave…”
The slave boy smiled happily.
“Even if it’s only these few days… I can live like a person… I can die as a human… I’m really, really… very happy…”
“Thank you, Prince…Because of you, I can truly…be a human…”
In the last sentence, the voice is already if there is nothing.
The last word fell silent, and the slave boy closed his eyes and stopped breathing.
The rain soaked his body, washed the blood from the boy, and gathered under the boy into a small pool of blood.
Gallan didn’t speak, he lowered his head, and his wet golden forehead hung down to cover his eyes.
He could only see his bloodless lips that were tight as a line, and the cold white fingertips that were pressed tightly on the back of the slave boy’s blood-red hand.
There were footsteps, and Seth did not know when he was here.
However, after a few days of work, he seemed to be ten years old, and his whole body looked extremely haggard.
“His Royal Highness.”
He knelt beside Garlan and said softly.
“The fourth day has passed…”
The sky has gradually dimmed, and it is already evening.
If there are reinforcements, it should have arrived.
But until now, there is still no sign of reinforcements coming.
Seth whispered in a hoarse voice, “…There is actually no reinforcement, is it, Your Highness?”
“I know, you said there are reinforcements to make everyone stick to it as much as possible…”
His voice seemed to be trembling.
“But, sorry, my lord, I’ve reached the limit now, I’m afraid I can’t hold on…”
No reinforcements.
Maybe there will be no reinforcements from the beginning.
The prince of Aaron Landis lowered his head and remained silent.
He slowly looked around, the corpses everywhere, and the mottled blood everywhere.
There seemed to be something indescribable surging in his golden pupils.
The rain stopped at some point, and the sun emerged from behind the clouds.
The crimson light of the setting sun enveloped this city wall more and more blood red.
Countless lives died in the war.
The blood-stained city, the weeping lights, the silent cry.
The cruelty of war is so naked at this moment|naked in front of everyone.
Everyone cast their gazes on him, the hope pinned on him.
That’s such a heavy, almost overwhelming responsibility.
Also, at this moment, I can’t do anything, I can only watch the powerlessness of the constant loss of life…
…
Looking at Garlan, who was silent and half-kneeled in front of the dead slave boy, who was silent for a long time, Kehus leaned over and wanted to say something.
However, before he had time to speak, there was a sudden loud bang.
The entire city wall shook in the loud noise.
The violent shaking caused all the Tozeths who were resting on the ground to stand up and look around in panic.
Then, everyone saw a scene that shocked their hearts.
I saw a giant warship sailing along the wide river channel of the outer city to the gate of the inner city wall.
Its bow is a huge metal horn in the shape of a devil.
It was slowly retreating, so the metal corner that hit the gate the previous second followed with the sawdust from the gate.
The giant warship slowly retreated hundreds of meters.
Then, the giant sail was raised, and the three rows of wood pulp on the side of the ship moved quickly. Agitated by the fierce sea breeze, the giant warship galloped forward again.
There was another loud bang, and under everyone’s horrified eyes, the warship slammed into the gate of the city wall once again.
The huge impact caused the ship’s body to crack apart with a click, but the huge gate of the huge city wall made of special hardwood was once again cracked by the impact of the giant metal horn.
The warship retreated slowly again.
For the third time, in the desperate gaze of everyone in Tozes, including Seth, only a loud bang was heard, and the gate of the city wall was hit by the giant warship and the gate was completely shattered.
Most of the smashed warships smashed open the gates, and slowly drove into the city wall with a dilapidated appearance.
But even if it crashed, it didn’t matter, because there were dozens of pirate ships behind that warship.
The city is broken.
All the Tozeths stood on the wall in a daze, their minds blank at this moment.
The city of Tozes has fallen.
Someone knelt on the ground with a weak leg.
Someone cried out in grief.
Someone smashed the city wall in front of them with their fists frantically, and couldn’t stop even if the blood was smashed out.
Their city, the home they desperately want to protect, it’s over.
At this moment, the shadow of despair shrouded everyone’s heads.
Garlan, who was standing on the wall, turned black, and his chest seemed to be pierced with a sharp weapon, and he felt a sharp pain.
When he almost fell, he stretched out his hand to press on the wall to support his body, and barely stood firm.
He was still trying his best to stand, but his fingers clenching the bricks of the city wall were shaking, and his hands clenching the bricks were so hard that the knuckles were white.
In the river channel of the outer city, the pirates uttered a huge cheer, and the sound was deafening and resounded across the sky.
Pirate leader Basha stood triumphantly on his boat, raised his chin, and waved his hand, he was about to call everyone to rush into the city and wash the city of Tozes——
However, at the moment he raised his hand before he had time to wave it.
The pirate on the lookout yelled.
“Boss! A large number of unknown fleets appeared in the rear, coming here!”
Before Basha said’Run Lao Tzu’, he was stuck in his throat forcibly.
A bad premonition surged in his heart, and he suddenly turned his head and looked at it.
At the same moment, on the high city wall, Garlan moved abruptly and raised her head suddenly.
At this moment, he almost forgot to breathe.
In the distance, on the endless sea, through the crimson sunlight, it was vaguely visible that a large-scale fleet was coming here quickly.
The first thing that people can see clearly is the flying flag on the battleship.
Seth on the side had already screamed out.
“Elson’s Navy!!!”
Elson’s reinforcements are here!
Taal arrived with the Ailson Navy–
Gallan opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly, he felt his heart beating violently.
An unspeakable premonition made him cling to the city wall tightly with both hands, looking away from a distance.
In the next second, the young golden eyes suddenly widened.
“Kyjos!”
Gallan shouted loudly, stretching his fingers forward.
That’s not the direction of the Alson Navy.
His fingers point to the ocean on the other side at this moment.
There, covered in the fiery red light of the setting sun on the sea, countless ship shadows came from the horizon.
The flag of the flaming lion was flying in the sky.
The royal navy of Aaron Landis–
…………
On the other side of Tozes City, on the river channel outside the gate facing the land.
Compared with the fierce battlefield on the other side, the pirates who were responsible for blocking this side to prevent people from fleeing sat leisurely on the ship, waiting for the fall of Tozes, so they could get in and get a share of the pie.
On the pirate ship near the river bank, the captain wearing a pirate hat was standing on the deck, scolding the two young men in front of him.
When he scolded and was happy.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow came through the sky.
Under the horrified eyes of the pirates, the arrow pierced the throat of the little pirate boss from behind.
The little boss didn’t even have time to say a word, and he fell straight forward with a loud bang.
The pirates subconsciously looked in the direction from which the arrows came.
Hundreds of meters away, the dust was flying, countless knights galloping from a distance like a black cloud.
The leading knight, a dark armor, reflected the fiery red sunset on the horizon.
Afterglow fell into those golden-red eyes with deep evil spirits. He held a strong bow and was full of hostility, as if he had come from hell.
