A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 200. Chapter 200

The night is late, the night is very quiet, everything seems to be asleep.

In a corner of Rudas City, this is a barren area full of gravel depressions. High wooden fences surround this large area, and simple straw sheds are built at will.

There was no light in the vast wasteland, only torches hung on the wooden fences surrounding the wasteland.

Hundreds of Gasdad soldiers guarded the fence outside, guarding here.

This is the only slave house in the city of Judas that was treated specially and guarded by soldiers of Gasdad.

And all the slaves in it were shackled and doing the heaviest work, but they could only get food that was not enough for their stomachs. They couldn’t eat enough every day, and they were scolded and killed by the guards at will.

The slaves here are all new slaves.

They are prisoners of war of the Gasdad.

To be precise, all the closely guarded slaves in this place were all soldiers of the Aaron Landis First Corps who were captured by the Gasdad in the battle a month ago.

The First Legion is also known as the King’s Guard Corps. Only the strong are qualified to enter.

All the soldiers who can enter the Guards are the pride of heaven, which is the envy of everyone.

But now, the warriors who were once the pride of heaven are reduced to the most humble slaves, or the slaves of the enemy of the country.

At that time, because of the murder of the traitors in the city of Rudas, both the food and the water in the barracks were secretly drugged. Although it was not fatal, it greatly reduced the soldiers’ combat effectiveness.

I never thought that staying in the city would be raided by the enemy, and the camp suddenly ignited. The Gasdad army raided late at night. Most of the army generals went to the castle to participate in the dinner party of the city lord. The army lacked a leader when the raid It was difficult to organize effective resistance. In the dark, there were people shouting that King Camos had been poisoned by the betrayed Lord Rudas, which severely shook the morale of the army…

All the above reasons, combined with all aspects, made the first legion that was caught off guard was defeated in a short time.

Some soldiers died in the melee.

A small number of soldiers escaped from Rudas City without whereabouts.

The remaining Aaron Landis soldiers became captives of the Gasdad people, branded with the marks of slaves, and became slaves ever since.

The Gastards unceremoniously drove these new slaves to do heavy work for themselves. In order to prevent them from resisting, they only gave them very little food every day, tortured them wantonly, and did not care about their lives.

Before Tyr led the army, he took a group of slaves to carry military supplies, and deliberately escorted half of the prisoners of war slaves to Kanal. Therefore, these slaves of Aaron Landis soldiers left in the city of Judas. The number is only more than three thousand.

What’s more, these prisoners of war slaves have been tortured to the bones and gaunt during the past month.

In this way, there is no need to worry about what storms these prisoners of war can make.

In the dark at night, in a straw shed, a man with tall and thick bones, but at the moment skeletal, lay quietly with his eyes closed, seeming to be asleep.

However, from the moment he touched his abdomen from time to time, he could tell that he was pretending to be asleep.

Before being captured, he was also a low-level general in the Aaron Landis army, leading a hundred cavalry under his command.

He was also a knight who was glorious and graceful and admired by everyone.

But now, with the imprint of a slave on his shoulders, he became a servant of the enemy, driven like a pig or dog.

He closed his eyes, but pressed his fingers tight on the hard part of his abdomen.

I remembered the scene two days ago.

Early in the morning the day before yesterday, these prisoner-of-war slaves were driven to work hungry as usual. During this period, grain, grass and supplies were often transported from Kanal to Rudas City, and then sent there endlessly. The direction of Tyre’s army.

And they were driven to carry supplies, and there were slaves in the city of Rudas who worked with them.

Because of lack of food for a long time, most of the prisoners of war were too thin, and so was he. On the contrary, the ordinary slaves looked much stronger than them.

He barely picked up a sack and walked forward slowly and hard, his hands and feet fetters making a heavy crash as he walked.

Probably because he was walking too slowly, the overseer next to him drew a whip and knocked him to the ground.

The man wanted to smoke again. Suddenly a slave rushed over and nodded at the overseer. He laughed with him. He was a lot of flattering words, desperately flattering the overseer.

Probably because he was pleased by flattery, the supervisor snorted and Shi Shiran walked away.

The slave who came over helped him up, seemingly inadvertently patted the dust on his body.

He was surprised.

Because he clearly felt that a short dagger was secretly stuffed into his arms by the slave.

When he raised his eyes, the familiar face in front of him caused his pupils to shrink suddenly.

He recognizes this person.

This man is not a slave—it should be said that this man was a slave before, but not anymore.

There is a special team under Kehuos, and the soldiers in it are all slaves of the former city of Tozes.

Although these slaves received the grace of the crown prince and were granted civilian status, for their noble knights, these people were still not much different from slaves.

They still regarded those soldiers as inferior, dismissive of them, and even called the army contemptuously, the slave army.

The man in front of him was a low-level general in that special slave army. He recognized him because he had clashed with him in order to protect his soldiers.

He was shocked in his heart, and the man dressed as a slave looked up at him with a meaningful look.

The man patted him with a hand with slave tattoos, then got up and left.

At the moment he passed by, the inaudible sound came into his ears.

“The Prince’s order, the next night, counterattack.”

…………

He woke up from his memory and pressed the dagger hidden in his abdomen tightly, and he was full of flavors for a time.

And more, it is the trembling from the depths of the body.

Fight back.

Pressing the dagger hidden in his abdomen, he muttered these two words silently in his heart.

The heart in his body was beating violently, and the surging blood seemed to be burning, burning him all over.

The blood of being a soldier is boiling.

The blood of Aaron Landis was boiling.

At this moment, he heard the noise of the originally silent city suddenly becoming noisy.

The man pretending to be asleep opened his eyes swiftly.

In this straw shed, all his companions suddenly opened their eyes at the same moment.

In the dark night, those faces were amazingly bright.

The fire lit up around the prison camp.

When the city of Rudas was in turmoil, the army that was scornfully called the “slave army” could only be stationed outside the camp because of being excluded, but it was a blessing in disguise. Out of town.

Afterwards, they infiltrated the city disguised as slaves of Rudas under Garlan’s order, and scattered in twos and threes throughout the city.

That night, during the slave riots in the city, the Twa lurking here also fought with the Gastad garrison guarding the prisoner-of-war camp.

The gate of the prisoner-of-war camp was knocked open, and everyone rushed out.

At this moment, they once reduced to slavery once again became Aaron Landis warriors draped in glory.

…………

In one part of the city, the general of Gasdade had just suppressed the troubled slave.

He was riding on the horse, his eyes swept across the corpse lying on the ground indifferently and contemptuously.

He thought, how could these animals have the courage to resist the Gastards.

The evil spirit was surging in the eyes of this rough-faced general.

This atmosphere of resistance must be suppressed.

Kill all the slaves who resisted tonight, and hang the corpses on the wall to frighten those Aaron Landis people, so that they never dared to resist again.

At this moment, a cavalry hurried on horseback and shouted from a distance.

“My lord! Something happened to the prisoner of war camp to the east!”

Prisoner of war camp!

The general shook his heart.

If he didn’t take the slave riot seriously at all, then he was really nervous now.

There were more than 3,000 prisoner-of-war slaves in the prison camp. Even if those prisoners of war had been tortured to their bones, their fighting power, who was once Aaron Landis warrior, was by no means comparable to ordinary slaves.

Before he could think about it, he immediately recalled his soldiers and hurried to the prison camp with the army.

…………

Turn back to the east gate of Rudas City.

The East City Gate, which was still standing quietly in the night, is already in full bloom at this moment.

Uta, who led his subordinates to the east city gate, was shot off by Gallan, who was standing on the city wall, without knowing his life or death.

And just the next second after Gallan’s arrow was shot, countless sharp arrows followed, rushing towards the army of Juta below like rain.

The steed made a frightened or painful neigh, and never expected that the cavalry ambushing would be caught off guard and shot down.

Almost all the people who attacked them stood on the wall, shooting arrows from high ground, and they could not even fight back.

What frightened them the most was the heavy crunching sound from the walls of the city gate.

It was the sound of the heavy winch turning.

With this voice, the huge gate slowly rose.

In the bright fire light, they could clearly see the countless horseshoes that had been exposed from under the door. They were digging on the ground and could not wait to rush into the opening city gate.

“……go!”

Uta, who was rescued by his own soldiers, spit out a mouthful of blood, his face twisted from the pain, and hardly reached the order to evacuate.

The men and horses he led in a hurry were definitely not the opponents of the countless cavalry outside, let alone the archers on the wall to help suppress them.

Under the protection of the personal soldiers, Juta leaned on horseback and fled in a hurry.

As he fled, he glanced back.

Among the city walls, in the crimson fire, the young man was still standing there, with long golden hair flying in the night sky.

It was like a cluster of golden flames that set a prairie fire from the darkness.

A glance made him feel palpitations inexplicably.

In the sound of friction, the heavy city gate finally opened completely.

The cavalry who had been waiting outside the door filed in.

The leader was actually a juvenile underage. He was riding a majestic brown horse with dark brown curly hair. Although his face was still a little immature, his body was as thick as a black bear.

The weapon he held in his hand was a huge hammer, black and shiny, with sharp thorns on the edge, and the thorn tip was shining with cold light, which made people feel chills at the first glance.

As soon as Xinyas rushed in on horseback, he waved his hammer and smashed the enemy out in front of his horse, then looked up and looked around, as if looking for something.

It wasn’t until he turned his head to see Garlan standing on the wall that his eyes lit up, grinning and shouting loudly.

“Brother…er…”

Suddenly remembering that he couldn’t call his elder brother in full view, Xinyas choked and changed his words quickly.

“Your Highness!”

He shouted excitedly, the sledgehammer in his hand waving casually and lightly in the frightened eyes of others.

Xinyas grinned and pointed a hammer at an empty steed next to him.

As early as when Xinyas rushed in, Gallan had put down his bow and arrow and ran down quickly.

When he reached the low wall, he jumped.

The young man landed lightly on the back of the horse, and the fluttering blond hair traversed a golden arc in the dark night.

Afterwards, he took the lead and led the crowd to gallop forward on the city’s avenues.

………………

The generals of Gasdade led the cavalry on the streets of Judas.

At this moment, he was anxious.

His colleague led his army to the prisoner-of-war camp, and on his way to suppress the slaves in the riot, he received the news that the despicable Aaron Landis sent someone from the East Gate to fall.

He immediately put down everything and rushed towards the east city gate with a quick whip.

Just halfway through, his pupils shrank suddenly.

He hadn’t seen the scene ahead yet, but he had heard the sound of horses hooves that shook the earth.

A huge army of cavalry is rushing from not far ahead.

It’s near.

He has seen the familiar black and red color.

The color of the Aaron Landis cavalry.

Meet on a narrow road.

The evil spirit of a beast gushed from the bottom of his eyes, and the sound of fighting horses hoof made his fierce blood as a Gasdad boil at this moment.

Kill Aaron Landis!

No matter what conspiracy or trick, he only needs to rush over and kill all the Aaron Landis people!

As long as he chopped off the head of the opposing general with a single knife–

Suddenly, one of the Aaron Landis cavalry troops on the opposite side came out more and more, urging the horse to speed up and rush towards him.

It seems that the other party is also trying to kill the general first.

Exactly what he wanted.

The courage of the Gasdad is never lost to anyone.

Especially when he saw the person’s appearance clearly, he sneered in his heart.

The one who rushed towards him was actually a young boy. Although he was sturdy, he knew that he was an underage boy by looking at his immature face without hair.

It’s just looking for death.

good.

Kill this little guy first to frighten the Aaron Landis.

Gasdade’s general rushed towards Xinyas.

He grinned, slashing down the heavy broadsword.

With a single sword, you can split this little thing in half.

he thinks.

Xinyas waved the hammer in his hand.

With a bang.

The hammer that hit the broadsword smashed the broadsword down.

The broadsword that had been slashed at him was slammed back with a hammer.

Under the stunned and horrified gaze of General Gasdade, Xinyas slammed it down again.

With a bang.

The head of this general was like a watermelon and was smashed to pieces.

The body that had lost its head fell from the back of a running horse, and was trampled into meat sauce by countless horses hooves that rushed up.

Xinyas rushed into the enemy army alone, like a tiger into the flock.

The huge hammer in his hand was swung so powerfully by him. All the Gasdad cavalry who stood in front of him were smashed by him one by one.

The hammer was stained with blood, and the sharp thorns on the edge made people fly.

His fierce appearance, which is almost like a human-shaped beast, made the always brave and brave Gasdad people feel frustrated, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it.

And at the moment when the Gasdad’s formation was chaotic, Aaron Landis’ cavalry attacked like a knife.

The black and red flood swept across, completely submerging the Gasdad people.

…………

At the prisoner-of-war camp, everyone was already in a bitter battle.

The Gasdad army guarding the city of Judas arrived in time and blocked the prisoners who were almost able to rush out.

Although the soldiers of these First Corps were once strong troops, they were tortured for nearly a month and suffered a lot of physical losses. At this moment, they were opposing the cavalry with infantry. They were naturally crushed and forced to retreat step by step.

They, along with the Twa slave army who came to rescue them, were all blocked in the prisoner of war camp.

In the past, the noble knights and slave-born generals who had disliked each other in the past leaned back against their backs at this moment, struggling to kill the enemy.

The blood of the enemy dyed their bodies red, and the scars on their bodies were their soldiers’ medals.

No need for more words, at this moment, they have tacitly stated.

Killing an enemy army again, he also added a bone deep wound on his body.

He gasped heavily and looked around.

More and more companions fell, the enemy was approaching, and the circle was shrinking.

No one knows how long they will last.

Darkness enveloped the city, and the igniting light was so faint in the huge darkness.

The night seemed to never see the end, and the sun seemed to never rise again.

The Guard Corps, once known as the strongest regiment of Aaron Landis, has fallen to such a lingering position.

The knight looked around blankly, his heart full of sorrow.

If King Camos was still there, how could Aaron Landis tolerate these little nights to do whatever they wanted.

If their king is still…

Suddenly, a loud shout, resounding through the sky, also penetrated into his ears abruptly.

“Prince Prince!”

“His Royal Highness is down!”

“Our reinforcements are here—”

The shouts rang from the slave army, one after another in an instant, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes coming from afar.

Prince?

In a daze, he subconsciously raised his head and looked into the distance.

In the firelight, he saw a cluster of golden rays appearing from the darkness, and in an instant he almost thought it was the first golden sunlight from the horizon at dawn.

The familiar cavalry in black and red leather armor appeared in front of everyone with the golden light like a spreading black and red fire.

The general of Gasdad, who was besieging the prisoner-of-war camp, hurriedly turned the army around and confronted the army of Aaron Landis cavalry that suddenly appeared.

In the bright fire, the young crown prince stood on horseback, and the blond hair flying in the wind behind him was the brightest color in the night.

Xinyas, holding a giant hammer, followed him closely, and the one-eyed guardian knight guarded behind him.

Countless Aaron Landis cavalry was behind him, ready to go.

In the dark, Gallan raised the long sword in his hand.

The sword points to the night sky.

The sharp blade flashed coldly against the fire.

“Aaron Landis–!”

The young man’s roar tore the night sky apart.

His hands fell heavily.

The arc of the sharp sword in his hand seemed to cut through the darkness.

The long sword pointed straight ahead.

“Aaron Landis!!!”

The roar of countless people resounded throughout the world.

Thousands of horses galloped in an instant.

The footsteps of horses shook the ground of the city.

The countless Aaron Landis cavalry ignited the city once shrouded in darkness like a raging fire.

…………

That was the roar that all Aaron Landis warriors were so familiar with, the roar that inspired the warriors to move forward courageously.

At this moment, it sounded again on the ground of Aaron Landis.

The knight stared at the scene blankly.

At that moment, he seemed to see a familiar stalwart figure and the young prince’s figure superimposed together.

As if a fiery flame ignited in his chest, burning the blood in his body.

His sore eye sockets were stained red little by little.

The body that was extremely heavy not long ago seemed to be penetrated into endless power again.

“Aaron Landis!”

He roared.

It was like roaring behind that stalwart figure countless times before, rushing to the enemy force bravely.

By his side, countless people roared like him, rushing towards the Gasdad.

…

The sun went down.

Darkness enveloped the earth.

The night is long, as if the end will never be seen.

but–

The long night will eventually pass.

The new sun will rise from the earth.

It will disperse the night and re-illuminate the land of Aaron Landis!
