Chapter 226 Collaboration
"Thanks to the rescue of the Bishop of Worcester, we will not fall into the end of the city being destroyed. Although the enemy's offensive has been repulsed, the situation on the field is still not very optimistic. London is still under siege. , I heard that all the territories in the central region have mutinied, it seems that the general trend is going to kill me."

The King of England leaned on his seat decadently, staring blankly at the front. Even though he had three heads and six arms, it was still difficult to turn the tide. The nobles also began to think about their future in disgrace.

"Report, there is a messenger asking to see you." A shout came from outside the door.

"No, tell them to give up. Even if I am the King of England in exile, I will not succumb to the name of traitors and thieves." The King of England didn't even bother to lift his head, and waved his servants to send the messenger away.

The attendant explained: "It wasn't from Duke Afia, but from the Earl of Cambridge in the north."

The King of England was dull for a while, "He? What an unscrupulous guy, just signed the peace treaty not long ago, and he is indeed the same thing as Denmark, and he probably came here to take advantage of the fire. Let him come in, and I will question him carefully."

The messenger sent by Li Peijun soon became the focus of the King of England. After experiencing so many storms in a short period of time, this tyrannical heart finally calmed down for a while. To vent the hatred in my heart.

"Let's talk, what conditions did you bring this time, maybe you want me to recognize your ownership of Cambridge and cede the remaining half of the Cambridge territory to you, or your appetite is much more than that, you want my head Is it the title of King of England? Then we will see if you have the ability." The King of England said very calmly, without the meaning of anger at all.

The selected candidate also expressed his position unhurriedly: "The situation of the King of England is worrying now, and we want to form an alliance with you to fight against the Effia coalition."

The King of England smiled coldly and said: "This is the first time I heard someone say that they want to form an alliance with the weaker side. I see whether your master is confused or has won a few battles. What kind of conditions do you want to agree to form an alliance? It must be quite a price tag."

"Just return the remaining half of Cambridgeshire, and then we can agree to form an alliance and send troops." The messenger said casually.

The King of England smiled even more intriguingly, "What a weirdo, it seems that you Vikings are both milk and mothers, and you don't care about the relationship between master and servant at all, and only have real interests in your eyes."

"If Your Majesty agrees to the conditions, then I will go back and report back quickly. However, we will not cooperate on the frontal battlefield. At that time, I hope that the King of England can hold the enemy's army for a while longer." Seeing that the messenger has settled down, he continued.

The King of England said perfunctorily, "Let's form an alliance. Anyway, with my current strength, it's easy for you to take back the half of the Cambridge territory. It's better to just give it to you."

On the other hand, Li Peijun, who was busy with his busy schedule, had forgotten the garrison in Nottingham Castle before. If he hadn't suddenly remembered this, there would be a ticking time bomb buried in his own consulate.

Fortunately, the work of the sentry has been done very well. The defenders in the castle did not flee to other places on a large scale. Most of them were still besieged in the isolated castle. Li Peijun, who was ready, hurriedly summoned good troops to surround the place again. , and shouted towards the castle on the hill.

"You are already surrounded, surrender quickly, there is no point in stubbornly resisting, it is wise to free yourself as soon as possible."

In addition to constantly amplifying the loudspeaker outside, Li Peijun also asked people to copy several letters of persuasion and tie them to arrows and shoot them into the city. Because the road is broken, not only is it difficult for the enemy to get in and out, but it is even more difficult for him to move forward.

Li Peijun was not in a hurry to wait, he had plenty of time and patience to wait for the other party's reply, and now he had taken the initiative on the battlefield, and when the food in the castle ran out, he would naturally be forced to respond.

The alliance with the King of England has been agreed. Li Peijun feels that he has now become a swing faction. He has no fixed allies at all. He just casts his net everywhere according to the situation. Even he hates himself a little.

In fact, the remaining half of Cambridgeshire did not need to be handed over specially. The only garrisons were gathered near London. As long as Li Peijun wanted to, his own territory could be pushed to the edge of London.

In order to slow down Duke Afia's offensive, Li Peijun was determined to make a stumbling block. Although he did not plan to confront Dunstan's army head-on, he still tried his best to destroy the enemy's logistics supply line. Now he only needs to pull out the last thorn , everything is easy to say.

Sure enough, on the third day of the siege and persuasion, the gates of the city guards were suddenly opened, and the people inside came out of the city one by one with their armor removed. After Li Peijun confirmed that it was not a trick to surrender, he immediately sent people to arrest the The Bo people escorted them to Nottingham and put them under guard first, and then ordered a small group of soldiers to go to the castle to check the situation.

After some interrogation, Li Peijun got an unexpected answer. Some of the knights in this wave were the London Knights who followed the King of England before. Instead, he fled in the direction of the west and hid here.

"The King of England wants to eradicate dissidents. When he recruited the peasant army, he specially ordered us to take the lead in order to consume as much of our vitality as possible so that he can make a wedding dress for him. Now London will definitely not be able to go back, because Al Burt has a very good personal relationship with the nobles of Nottingham, so we took refuge here temporarily." One of the nobles said eloquently.

"Now that the King of England is besieged in London and unable to escape, you will also be able to take revenge. If you can help me, I will ensure your prosperity and wealth. The territory of London will still be yours in the future." Li Peijun also painted a big cake without hesitation. After all, the opponent has as many as 200 people, and he can also increase a lot of strength.

Albert was overjoyed after hearing this and said, "If this is the case, I, Albert, am willing to serve the lord and accept your order."

It's just that the group of surrendering nobles dare not entrust them with important tasks, for fear of betrayal on the spot, Li Peijun had no choice but to divide them into 8 batches and assign them to each formation, so that the soldiers in the team could also stand together. to a certain degree of supervision.

When Bishop Owald heard that he was going to act like Dunstan, he was so excited that he revealed his old background all night, and sent the few remaining guards to him. Just how much hatred is Dunstan.

This time the team is more powerful than before. In addition to the 3000 Harfleur Army, there are also 1000 British Army. Li Peijun sent 1000 troops to East Sussex in Norwich with a transport ship, and the rest were Detour to Nottingham all the way south and go straight to the supply line of the Afia coalition forces.
