Chapter 173 The Battle of the Three Kings (The Fall of the Two Kings)
"Don't be defeated! We have nowhere to go! Keep going!"

Under the siege of Richard's army, the defeat of the coalition forces could no longer be changed, but Bandak and Jutian still tried their best to change the hearts of the soldiers who had abandoned their lord and glory.They knew that they had lost this battle, but even if they died, they still had to maintain their dignity as kings.

At the time of the expedition, their army was extremely large, and they were so majestic, but in the desperate situation, the only ones who accompanied the king in the end were more than a hundred loyal guards.

"Defend the King! Defend the King!"

They shouted loudly, forming a tight phalanx around the two kings to protect them, and in front of them, the rout of the coalition army, which was scattered like a plate of loose sand, screamed desperately under the pursuit of Richard's soldiers Fleeing in a direction they thought was safe, no one dared to turn around and resist the pursuing enemy. They were all terrified and became cowards who are disgusting.

As time went on, the number of dead and wounded increased dramatically, and the battle outside Arkham Manor turned into a bloody massacre.

Those defeated coalition soldiers who were chased by Richard's cavalry had no strength to fight back, and they were humiliated and killed directly from the back. Some of them wanted to surrender, but the red-eyed Richard's soldiers refused to give them up at all. Opportunity, a backhand sword cut off the head of the rout soldier who was kneeling on the ground intending to surrender. More and more rout soldiers were caught up, and more and more corpses were lying on the ground. Most of these corpses were fragmented, blood and water mixed with broken pieces pieces of meat covered the earth.

After a few years, this area must be the most fertile arable land.

"It's Bundak and Jutian! Surround them!"

"Brothers, as long as you catch them, we can enjoy the noble life in the future!"

Finally, a large number of soldiers surrounded the area where Bandak and Jutian were. They shouted loudly and shouted to each other. They looked at the two distinguished kings as if they were looking at money bags, and their eyes almost bloomed. Shine a dazzling light.

Looking at the soldiers of Richard's army with glowing eyes, Bundak couldn't help wondering whether these soldiers were poor and crazy. At the same time, he became more determined not to be captured. Once they fell into the hands of these poor and crazy soldiers, they might What a humiliating treatment.

"attack!"

Following the hissing and roaring of the officers in the crowd, the soldiers of Richard's army with high morale swarmed towards the phalanx formed by more than a hundred Imperial Guards. Absolute knocking sound.Facing the siege of a large number of enemies, these Imperial Guard soldiers looked resolute and regarded death as home, which made the soldiers who fought with them feel admiration.

However, the phalanx formed by more than a hundred soldiers of the Imperial Guard was eventually breached. No matter how brave and elite soldiers were, they could not stop the massive opponents, not to mention that their opponents were also not weak in combat effectiveness.The corpses of many soldiers have fallen on the periphery of the phalanx, including soldiers from Richard's army and soldiers from the Imperial Guard. Judging from the costumes, there are still more corpses of soldiers from Richard's army.

At the end of the battle, there were less than ten soldiers around Bandak and Zhu Tian who were still fighting tenaciously. The two kings had already joined the battle with swords and beheaded several enemies. The blood was stained red, and a lot of blood was splashed on his face. Jutian's helmet had long since disappeared. His long golden hair was stuck to the skin of his face by the blood, and he could no longer see the dignity of being a king.

Slowly, they found that the enemy they were fighting with was retreating. Bundak looked at the soldiers of Richard's army who were slowly retreating with his bloodshot eyes, but at a glance he saw Richard riding on a horse in the crowd—the man who had never The nephew who had a bad relationship with him when he first entered the kingdom.

Looking at these stubbornly resisting enemies, Richard's handsome face showed no expression, but a trace of regret flashed in his eyes. He turned his eyes to Bundak and Zhutian, and said slowly: "Surrender, I will I swear to the honor of the nobility that I will not harm you."

"You're dreaming." Before Bundak could answer, Zhutian roared, his eyes fixed on Richard, and said, "Richard, I should have arrested you six years ago , thrown into a dark dungeon to rot and stink!"

"It's a pity that you don't have that chance, Jutian." Richard was not angered by his words, but said lightly: "This is just the beginning, and I will let you watch me counterattack Winster and take back this The country that should belong to me - until then, spend the rest of your life in Gabriel Tower in Nord City!"

"Hehehe..." As soon as Gabriel Tower was mentioned, Zhutian's eyes lit up and he sneered miserably. He looked at Richard who was overwhelmed by the soldiers with a mocking expression, and said, "Poor Richard, you don't know, your mother, the former Queen Mary, is now imprisoned by me on Gabriel Tower, let me think, she may have been imprisoned for six years ..."

Hearing Zhu Tian's words, Richard was shocked, looked at Zhu Tian in disbelief, and asked excitedly: "My mother is still alive?"

"Hahaha... Not only is she alive, but I have also caught her out and abused her from time to time, so that all the men in the palace can enjoy the taste of being a former queen. That taste, tsk tsk..."

Zhutian was still triumphantly narrating the words he made up on the spot to humiliate Richard, and he didn't notice that the faces of Richard and Bundak beside him became ugly, but he forgot and stood beside him His ally is Queen Mary's own brother!
"You will pay the price, Jutian!" Richard's face became more and more ugly, and finally he couldn't stand it anymore, and let out a roar containing monstrous anger. He pulled out the sword at his waist and pointed at the surrounded Zhu Tian and the others, regardless of whether the others were willing to surrender or not, shouted angrily: "Hand artillery, step forward and shoot!"

As Richard roared, groups of hand cannons in fine armor walked out of the crowd. They looked expressionlessly at Jutian, who was still talking nonsense, and Bandak and others beside him, with the muzzles of the hand cannons in their hands. Aiming at them, gunshots rang out the next second, and the people surrounded were shot several times and fell to the ground unwillingly.

But the anger in Richard's heart was not extinguished. He pointed at Jutian's twitching corpse full of gun holes with a livid face, and said coldly: "Cut off his head, dismember his body, and chop it up. dog!"

……

Richard didn't know why he was so angry. He was so angry that he lost his composure on the spot. Later, thinking about it, it might be caused by the soul of the original owner of the body that was still incomplete. No one would be able to hold their breath when they knew their parents were treated like this. In addition to the history of Liu Bang whose father was boiled into meat soup, he could laugh and eat his father's meat into meat soup with others.
