A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 208. Chapter 208

The wind and rain were violent, and the heavy rain poured down, washing out a sauce-colored water mark on the pitted city wall that was hit by the sling.

These days, layer after layer of blood splashed on the city wall was almost washed away in this heavy rain, and the sewage flowed into the river, staining the already turbid river with an ugly sauce.

The sudden torrential rain has increased the difficulty of attacking the city. In order to reduce casualties, the Gasdad army that was attacking the city today has been withdrawn early.

On the towering walls of the Royal City, a group of people stood there, looking out at the Gastad camp in the distance.

Hiemos stood at the forefront, still in black armor, and his dark hair had long been soaked by the rain, dripping wet on his forehead.

The rain flowed down his cheeks, and his brown skin was glowing with water.

The people behind him were more or less tired, but he was still in good spirits, even in the pouring rain, those golden-red eyes were burning like an unquenchable flame. .

The city has been besieged for more than ten days.

Except for the previous few days, the Gasdad people only drove the descendants of the various countries under their command to tentatively attack and fill the moat. As soon as the news that the city of Judas was retaken by Garland arrived, in the next ten days, They are all siege on the ground.

People who want to come to Gasdad also understand that their back roads and the transportation of food and grass have been cut off. If this news is received in the middle of the road, the army can immediately rush back and take back the city of Rudas, but it has already reached the bottom of the royal city. If it turns around at this moment, there will definitely be chasing troops in the royal city.

Although it is feasible to turn to attack other large cities now, it is meaningless in terms of strategy except for delaying time. After all, it is the Gastards themselves who can’t delay time.

Therefore, the best way is to conquer the king’s city.

As long as they sit in the city of Aaron Landis, the Gasdad will no longer be afraid of any threats.

In the past ten days, the Gastadians have exhausted all kinds of siege tricks, whether it is fire attacks, digging tunnels, poisoning water sources, etc., they finally returned without success.

And all of their remaining meticulous work in the royal city was dug out after a slight movement, and they died in public. The head is still hanging on the wall for public display.

Perhaps it was because of the news that Aaron Landis had begun to gather under the crown prince, and the Gasdad’s attacks became more and more fierce. Struck twice.

But all the above were unsuccessful.

Although the soldiers of Aaron Landis who guarded the city looked exhausted under the violent and uninterrupted attacks of the Gasdad, they still blocked the attack of the Gasdad again and again.

And the one who led everyone to see through the siege tactics of the Gasdards time and time again and firmly held the royal city is the Huymos standing on the wall at this moment.

If it is said that when the’upright wall clearing the country’ was forcibly implemented, Huymos made everyone dared not to speak, his image was extremely bad in the hearts of the people, and his prestige had fallen to the lowest point, then now, the leader of the soldiers is firmly guarding the king’s city. His reputation has risen again.

Especially for the people in the royal city, this prince Huimos has become a patron saint.

Because of his existence, the city was not broken by the brutal Gasdad.

At this moment, all the soldiers standing nearby were watching Heimos standing in the rain and looking into the distance with reverent eyes.

Huimos moved his gaze away from the Gastadian camp on the ground in the distance, over the sky, through the rain curtain, and looked towards a distant place.

He touched the malachite ring on his finger that was washed by the rain, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Gallan should have received it now, right?

The gift he gave him.

…………

The downpour hit the huge camp, making crackling noises.

The silver-haired Prince Gasdade sat on a chair, turned his head and looked at the heavy rain outside the window, and the fuzzy King City in the rain, his eyes cold.

Since he was a child, he followed his father on the Gastad plateau, watching his brave father take down tribes after another, kill one after another called warriors, and unite Gas. Dade.

His father was satisfied with this, but he was not satisfied with it.

Because he knows that there are many countries in the south of Gasdade, which are not the same as the Gasdade Snowfields, which are shrouded in cold and dark nights and have a difficult living environment. Those countries have fertile land and are bathed in sunshine all year round. The seasons are warm. Like spring, the people of those countries do not need to fear severe cold, wind and snow, hunger and death, and live a comfortable and prosperous life.

Why?

Why should the Gasdad people have to struggle to survive in a dangerous environment from birth, and why his people are facing severe cold, snow, and hunger anytime and anywhere?

In this world, the strong survive.

In the warmest and richest place, what qualifications do those weak guys have to occupy?

That should belong to their Gasdad.

No… It should be said that all the land on this continent belongs to their Gasdad people!

Bringing a large army all the way to the battle, the Gasdad people under his leadership broke through one country after another. Their strength and bravery made them never meet an opponent, and no one can stop them from going south.

As a result, the Gasdad people formed the illusion that they were an invincible army, and even Tyr gave birth to a little hero in the world.

However, all these illusions were shattered in Aaron Landis.

The battle that was defeated in the hands of the Lion King was a trap set by Tyre. The defeat was a pawn he discarded, so Tyre didn’t think it was a defeat.

However, the battle to recapture the city of Rudas launched by Gallan was naked|slapped naked on his face, which made Tyr, who had always been proud, know for the first time what it meant to be defeated.

And then, he was frustrated in the hands of Huimos.

For more than ten days, the prince Hiemos just blocked his hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city wall.

The city wall stood firmly on the ground, losing countless Gastad’s warriors, and still not seeing the possibility of breaking the city.

The rain outside the camp weakened, and it was pattering underground. Tyre looked at the rain curtain outside, his eyes cold and his face sinking like water.

time is limited.

he thinks.

The army gathered by Prince Garland will soon be drawn.

If this continues, Gasdad’s army will be passive and be attacked by both sides.

He must make a decision immediately.

…………

………………

The city of Judas is becoming more and more lively every day, and troops from all over Aaron Landis gather here.

Those generals who came late and had to be stationed outside the city deliberately complained for two days. Seeing that Garlan had no response, he was obviously too lazy to talk to them.

However, when there are too many people, conflicts can easily occur between each other, leading to various frictions.

The generals of Aaron Landis are all okay. After all, they dare not mess around under the seat of the crown prince, and there is also the prestigious city lord of Karenni. If they had any conflict, they went directly to the old man appointed by the crown prince as the commander-in-chief, and let him make a decision.

However, there are also things that Karenni doesn’t know how to deal with.

The most typical is the friction between generals of different countries.

It is not the friction between the Aaron Landis people and the people of other countries. After all, everyone is very kind to the friendly countries who come to help Aaron Landis.

And this trouble is…

“His Royal Highness! Please allow me to wait and give a lesson to those arrogant men!”

Garlan, who was patrolling the city wall, was caught by the angry female General Elson.

“I don’t know who is being taught, I don’t know you women.”

Opada, who followed closely, sneered.

“A woman who wants to compete with a man in vain? She’s really not afraid of death.”

The Elson female warrior laughed furiously.

“There are so many men who died in my hands.”

She looked at Opada contemptuously.

“Men? All are soft guys who only kneel down in front of our Elson warriors begging for mercy.”

Opada was furious.

“Who do you think is the softie–”

“It’s you!”

The boy who was squeezed in between the two opposing squirts looked towards Tewa who was chasing him.

Tewa shrugged, showing a helpless expression, and silently told Gallan that his Excellency Karenni was gone.

These two, a general of Tasda and a female general of Elson, looked uncomfortable with each other all day, and quarreled endlessly.

Not only them, but the Tasdas and the Elson women warriors are also in constant conflicts with each other. If Opada and Vinyl were both concerned about Garlan’s face and forcibly suppressed their subordinates, they would probably be early It started fighting.

However, even if they were forced, the contradiction between the two continued to intensify, and even the two generals were almost unable to hold them back.

Gallan had actually guessed that it would be like this a long time ago.

after all……

A complete male respect.

An extreme female respect.

There is simply no ambivalence.

Moreover, the people of these two countries are proud of their own martial arts, so it is strange to get together and not fight.

It was pretty good that Vinyl and Opada could bear to rush over to find him until today.

The two quarreled angrily, and Xinyas on the side became impatient.

“What is the quarrel? Come and fight with me if you are dissatisfied!” He waved the big hammer in his hand enthusiastically and said, “I’m just getting bored. Come and fight with me.”

Opada: “…”

Vinel: “…”

These two generals who disliked each other rarely agreed at this moment, ignoring Xinyas.

They are all brave warriors, but they are brave and brave, not stupid, and fighting with inhumans like Xinyas is just looking for something.

This Luntouqing doesn’t need any martial arts at all, just one fist can knock you out.

Regardless of whether they are afraid of pain or not, the key is to be so embarrassed to be beaten out like this-especially in front of their own men.

The two of them didn’t say a word, they just stared at each other with their eyes, in a posture that they would do something if they didn’t agree with each other.

If it weren’t for Garlan’s presence, I’m afraid it would really have started.

Seeing their posture, Gallan blinked and suddenly said: “Well, what’s the point of being noisy like this? Just do it.”

Vinelle: “…Huh?”

Opada “Huh?”

Gallan’s words shocked them, because they were concerned that the other party was Gallan’s friend, so they kept restraining themselves and suppressing their subordinates from letting them do anything. They didn’t expect that Gallan would simply let them Start fighting.

“His Royal Highness, will this be too…”

Twa on the side also smiled bitterly when he heard Garlan’s words.

“The two are both guests, and fighting will have a very bad effect.”

“It’s ok.”

Garlan raised his hand and pointed to a wide training ground in the barracks below the city wall.

“There will be a hundred people on both sides, and find an open space for a match. Of course, lethal weapons are not allowed. Whoever loses in the match will unconditionally obey the victorious side.”

He bent his eyes and said,

“Who is more serious about this question, how about it?”

After Gallan finished speaking, the eyes of the two people lit up at the same time. Without a word, they turned and walked out.

They are all gearing up, intending to give the other party a severe lesson.

“Uh… Your Highness, this doesn’t seem right…”

“I feel very good.”

Gallan shrugged.

“There was friction between the generals. Although Kareni’s mediation was useful for the time being, it was always uncomfortable in my heart. It will be the same in the future. If there is a conflict, they will directly bring a hundred people to the training ground to fight and lose. The obedience wins.”

He smiled and stretched out his hands.

“Simple and clear, right? Don’t take the effort to mediate. It will be useful to see the real chapter on the training ground. This will solve the dispute, but also let everyone vent, and by the way, let everyone practice training, killing three birds with one stone. is not it?”

Tewa: “…”

Something seems wrong, but His Highness seems to make a lot of sense.

Just as Twa was struggling, Vinyl, who had just left, suddenly turned back.

“By the way, Your Highness, I have something to pass to you.”

Suddenly remembering an important thing, Vinyl temporarily pushed back the idea of the group of men getting on the ground, returned to Galan, took out a beautifully carved ivory box and sent it to Galan.

When she opened it, there was a great contrast with the delicate carvings of the small box, which was the rough workmanship of the sapphire ring inside.

The azure blue gem is embedded in the gold ring that doesn’t look like a regular circle.

Garland: “…”

Looking at this ring, Gallan suddenly remembered the rough lapis lazuli earrings he was wearing for some reason.

These two things seem to have the same effect.

“His Royal Highness, this is made for you by our little lady. The ocean stone inlaid on it symbolizes the shelter of the ocean goddess.”

Vinyl looked at Garlan with a smile.

“Xiao Wangnv hopes that you can put this ring on. Seeing the ring is like seeing her. She said that although she is not strong enough, she cannot come to you in person this time, but as long as you wear it Ring, the sea goddess who sheltered the Elson royal family will surely shelter you too…”

“This is also the proof that the little queen and you have agreed. When she grows up, she will definitely come to Aaron Landis to look for you.”

Garlan, who was suddenly given the ring, was still a little confused.

The female general who unceremoniously matched her teenage girl with a wooden box in her hands and brought it to Garlan with a smile on her face.

She said: “After all, Xiao Wangnv has decided that you must give birth to your baby in the future…”

Just halfway through what she said, suddenly a loud eagle sounded in the sky, and a black shadow swooped down, actually taking away the sapphire gold ring.

The long black wings fluttered in the sky, and the black eagle hovered in the sky above Garlan with his ring in his mouth.

Vignelle couldn’t react, and watched the ring made by her own little queen being taken away by an eagle, and she was stunned for a while.

She touched her back reflexively, took off the bow behind her back, and was about to shoot an arrow with the bow in the next second.

But Opada, who was standing next to him, suddenly stepped forward and pressed her arm.

Vinelle glared at Opada, but Opada glared at her, still holding her and not letting go.

He said, “That’s Garland’s eagle.”

As soon as Vinelle turned his head, he saw Garlan tilting his head and showing a smiling face. As soon as he raised his hand, the black eagle hovering above him immediately fluttered down and fell on his raised arm.

Before everyone could react, it suddenly vomited the ring in its mouth to Vinyl’s feet, making Vinyl’s face instantly darkened.

Seeing her, she could persuade Prince Garlan to put on the little queen’s ring.

What happened to this broken eagle suddenly coming out to make trouble?

She leaned over and picked up the ring, thinking sadly.

If it weren’t for the prince’s eagle, she would definitely shoot it down and roast it.

…………

This is… a pet is like an owner… right?

Followed Black Hawk Anu, so the blond knight who had seen the scene just now thought silently in his heart.

He stepped forward to salute Gallan, and then said: “Antalya, the general of Menister City, came to see him.”

Garlan was gently stroking Anu’s dark feathers, thinking how Anu, who was supposed to be following Huimos in the royal city, would come here. Hearing these words of Kaihuos, he was taken aback.

“Menister City?”

That’s Heimos’s…

“Well, he transported a large number of elite weapons.”

Kaihus finished speaking and stepped aside.

A middle-aged general behind him stepped forward and bowed his head to salute Galan.

“His Royal Highness, I am on the order of His Highness to deliver weapons to you.”

Anu, the black eagle who stopped on Garlan’s wrist, let out a short call and patted his wings lightly.

The boy touched its wings and laughed softly.

He turned his head and looked at the east from a distance, where the king’s city was.

Although separated by thousands of miles, that person seemed to be by his side.

He is not fighting alone.

There is another person, a person who can trust him, a person who can make him feel at ease, and he is supporting Aaron Landis’ sky with him.

Huimos.

The existence that once made him fear, is now the existence that gave him great courage and support.

“it’s time.”

Gallan raised his hand and gave it away. The Black Hawk spread out its wings and fluttered to the sky.

The bright sunlight fell on his face, making the youth’s golden eyes gleam in the sunlight.

“Go to the King’s City.”
