Chapter 561 Idiot

Outside Semanud.

At this time, it was getting late.

It is when the moon rises in the west and sets in the west.

The chaotic sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded.

The villagers who were cleaning up their farm work went to take a look in surprise.

"What's this noise?"

"It's a rout! Master Mahli's army has been defeated!"

"Run!"

The villagers were horrified to find that in the fields and on the road, the army was completely defeated. They abandoned their helmets and armor and rode various mounts, like migrating beasts on the grassland, trying to escape.

That is to say, these cavalrymen, or those who have grabbed the horses, can still run in front of Lothar's cavalry.

I saw a group of cavalry holding a double-headed eagle flag, taking the lead to rush across the hillside. Behind them, there were a row of Crusader knights, walking at almost the same pace, trotting slowly. They were neither chasing the defeated army in front of them. , nor did they spread out to plunder villages.

He spoke his full name very quickly, which meant that he was the son of Ild Gulsum. If he only said that he was Kemal Rashid, he could at least be found in the entire city of Semanud. Come up with a hundred people with the same name.

The city leader whispered for a while, then dropped a basket. Faris, named Jabri, shouted at the top of his lungs: "Send your lord's seal, otherwise it won't be enough to be trusted!"

In fact, that's exactly what happened.

An angry roar suddenly sounded from the top of the city, followed by a trembling bowstring, and a sharp arrow flew from the string.

But Maier endured the severe pain and shouted.

It seems that the news that the army led by the Governor was defeated by the Franks has been conveyed back by the falcon.

"Let Nizar Ulama (an honorific title for clergy) come to see me. I have important matters to discuss with him."

These defeated troops had no intention of staying at all, as if they were followed closely by the devils in hell, they passed directly through the main road in the middle of the village without stopping.

Kemaier believes that if he can get the help of Master Nizar, the situation will be stabilized quickly.

From a distance, these defeated troops looked like the vanguard of the Franks. The two sides were clearly on the same side!

Kemer was the first to return to the city of Semanud. This port city is now closed. The suspension bridge is raised high, and the originally semi-dry moat is also under the control of dozens of workers. Under the influence of the wheel, river water was introduced.

The defeated army was so frightened that all the villages along the way closed their doors, fearing that they would be plundered by these usually lawless, but now deorganized, more likely to become rogue bandits.

But Maier was not a fool after all, and yelled angrily: "Now that the iron hooves of the Franks are about to come to the city, tens of thousands of people blessed by the Holy Fire in Semanud are already in danger. Do you still want to fight for power?"

Ok!

But they were overly worried.

"Shut up, traitor, you are my lord's personal attendant, why are you the only one back now?"

Nizar is the most respected cleric in Semanud City. It is said that he once lectured at Al-Azhar University in Cairo and was highly praised by King Saladin. He is the master of Sunni Zoroastrianism.

In a hurry, Maier only had time to turn his head, but was hit by an arrow on his shoulder. Unfortunately, he threw away his armor in order to rush back as quickly as possible. Otherwise, even if the arrow hit, it would most likely be bounced away.

The arrowhead may not have been quenched with poison, but it was probably soaked in gold juice, and there was constant burning pain from the wound.

Komar breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "I am Komar Rashid Ild Gulsum Abdul"

"Jabrifaris, I am not a traitor. The Governor died in battle. I came under the orders of the Governor to defend the city of Semanud from the evil spirits of the Cross. I have the seal of the Governor as proof! "

"You misunderstood. Lord Maier, please enter the city in a gondola first. I will immediately send someone to invite the Ulema to see you."

But Maier grabbed the gondola, hesitated for less than a second, and decisively unpacked his mount and stepped in - the person he was loyal to, Governor Machri, was still him even if he was greedy, stupid, and short-sighted. People who are loyal.

He must preserve the legacy of His Excellency and the legacy of the Mahli family.

However, as soon as he set foot on the city, he saw Jabri drawing a sword and holding it to his throat.

"Hand over your lord's seal!"

"Your Majesty entrusted this thing to me before his death, and I will only present it to the young master."

But Maier was unmoved. "Then you go see the young master."

There was a playful expression on Jabri's face that was half a smile but not a smile.

But an ominous premonition suddenly arose in Maier's heart, and the next moment, the Saracen's straight sword pierced his neck.

He opened his mouth and made a "ho ho" sound, and bloody foam continued to overflow from his throat. It seemed that he could not believe until his death why Jabri was still fighting among himself when the enemy army was pressing on the border.

Jabri leaned close to Kemal's ear and whispered mockingly: "Young Master, and your master are waiting for you underground now. The entire Governor's Mansion was massacred as soon as I received the news. All naked."

Looking at Kemaier's widened eyes, he couldn't help but sneered: "Idiot, those Crusaders are all cavalry, what are they using to attack the city? Master Adil will be here soon, and those Crusaders can't do anything to me."

There was a hint of surprise in Maier's eyes.

No wonder, no wonder he would do such a thing.

The expression on his face quickly turned into a mocking one. Idiot, what an unfathomable idiot. Do you really think that is an ordinary Crusaders? Can ordinary crusaders crush the governor's elite so easily?

He grinned, and the pain seemed to be far away from him at this moment.

I'm waiting for you in hell!

Jabri was not frightened by Kemal's expression before he died. He just sneered and said: "Come here, hang the traitor's body on the city wall. This kind of collaboration and rebellion will never be allowed to be burned by the Holy Fire after death." Burn.”

He stepped on Kemal's chest, pulled out the straight sword that had penetrated his throat, wiped it on his body, then put back the scabbard, took Governor Mahli's seal, and took it into his hand - it was a square inlaid with Gemstones, gilded seals, exquisite decorations.

"Governor Mahri ordered me to take over all the military affairs of Semanud City. From now on, no one is allowed to go out at will. We will firmly guard this city. When Lord Adil arrives, the entire army will Attack, cooperate inside and outside, and avenge Governor Mahli!"

He shouted, and orders were issued from level to level. An order stamped with the governor's seal quickly spread throughout the city.

"Look, sir!"

The guard on the side suddenly shouted.

I saw a large number of defeated troops under the city. They abandoned their helmets and armor, and ran lightly, and rushed to the city in the blink of an eye.

"Open the city gate quickly and let us in!"

"The Crusaders are coming soon, let us enter the city quickly."

"Varashma, is that you? I'm Senmut from the opposite door. Please open the city gate quickly. Those Crusader demons are coming soon."

The defenders at the top of the city subconsciously turned their attention to Jabri.

Unexpectedly, this man raised his bow and shot down the cavalry who had abandoned his armor: "Get out of here! Anyone who dares to stay under the city will be killed. From now on, anyone who dares to suggest opening the city gate will be followed." The traitors of the Crusader liaison will end up like this guy!"

While he was talking, Maier's body had been suspended in the air. His body was limp and fluttering in the wind, but his eyes were still staring at Jabri at the top of the city as if full of ridicule.

The guard on the side couldn't help but whispered: "Sir, Governor Mahri has taken away most of the elites. Now there are only more than a thousand soldiers left in the city. Even if you issue a recruitment order, the strength of those militiamen will be limited. "

Many of the defeated troops who escaped were their acquaintances, neighbors, and even neighbors. He really couldn't bear to point his weapons at them.

In the dark night, Jabri's green eyes glanced at him, startling him.

The new city lord sneered and said: "I have my own way to make these militiamen exert their power to rival the regular army. I am not a fool like Mahli, and I have to have an adviser like Komar beside me."

"So, just follow my orders."

The sharp eyes glanced at him, and the guard was startled. He hurriedly turned his face away and responded in a low voice.

Most of the Saracen militia could not even muster a sword.

Their standard equipment only has two spears, one for throwing, one for attacking, and a shield, not to mention armor. When it comes to real fighting, just like their European counterparts, they can only make do with what they have.

He took off his iron gloves, held on to the city wall, raised his head and looked at the bright moon that gradually replaced the sun and hung high in the sky. His two green eyes were full of wild and violent colors, and he was definitely not like a normal human being.

"That idiot Mahri should have abdicated long ago."

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the city: "From today on, Semanud, I am the only one who reigns supreme!"
