I Will Be The Crowned King

As the horn of the general attack sounded, the last little suspense of the Battle of Iron Bell began to gradually dissipate.

Although the Mist army, who first broke through the city wall defense line, suffered quite heavy casualties under the desperate resistance of the defenders, it was considered to have successfully completed their mission, attracting firepower and acting as human shields for the subsequent coalition forces, and successfully covering the Aiden Legion. Break through the line of defense.

From this point of view, they are indeed dead well - although the heir of Mist, who is still in a coma, may not agree with this view.

The nearly 8,000 Aiden Legion followed the gap in the defense line opened by the Mist soldiers, and rushed into the Iron Bell Fort almost frantically, and began to chase after the defeated defenders' tails.

As the army continued to pour in, the mournful howls, the smoke and flames of lead bullets began to spread inside the castle; the streets and houses were either set ablaze by the defenders who were trying to stop the attack, or they were turned into pieces by the looting of the attackers. in ruins.

And among the robbers who bear the brunt of the robbery, not even the mad dog-like Aiden Legion, but the Mist people are more enthusiastic about "robbing their own people".

"...they rushed into the houses of nobles and wealthy merchants, smashed all obstacles in front of them with gun butts and bayonets, and killed all the rebels who tried to stop them from looting, but in the end, because they were red-eyed, they shot the target again. To children and women who are still crying and begging for forgiveness..."

"…bloods and dismembered corpses spread from the gate to the cellar, and the houses that have been set on fire by the defenders can't stop their madness; these Mist who were crying for the peace of Mist just a second ago, are now even To be able to fight each other in order to rob their own countrymen, so that the Aiden who have always been considered crazy to stop them..."

"...they threw away the copper plates in their pockets to **** the silver coins, threw away the silver coins for the gold in the chests, and insulted the dead for the jewels of the dead... The truly precious paintings, sculptures and books were abandoned like shoes, in Burning in a sea of ​​fire..."

"...The defeated defenders are still retreating to the inner fort, but there are still many people left for the last stubborn resistance; although they were quickly defeated and annihilated again, they bought precious escape time for the fleeing people- Although it's hard to say if it makes sense..."

"…All these things that were once considered commonplace in Han soil, are so distressing in my eyes at this moment; I have also had the experience of countering rebellion, taking the killing and looting of traitors for granted me, Leon F. Lançois . . . for the first time felt for the first time the urgency of unity and peace . . . "

Slowly stopping the pen in his hand, Leon Francois, who was sitting on the collapsed city wall, raised his head with a sigh, and looked at the Iron Bell Castle, which was still shrouded in gunpowder smoke and fire, with extremely complicated eyes.

Obviously victory is in sight, but he does not feel the slightest joy.

Sporadic gunshots rang out from the city wall position under his feet, and the Storm Division-Thun line infantry, who were stepping on the ashes and corpses, lined up into the castle and began to push inward along the outer defense line, annihilating a small number of enemy troops, while quickly. Control and occupy important strongholds and roads within the castle.

And as this main force entered the battle, the rate of defeat of the defenders of Ironbell began to intensify; even if a small force defeated the advance of the Vanguard Aiden Legion, it would soon find that they could not defeat the advancing coalition at all. The linear phalanx array has to pay a heavy price of casualties.

While they were resisting, the mad dog-like Aiden Corps was still charging and interspersing wildly between the streets and buildings. Many defenders were surrounded and surrounded and attacked from both sides before they could retreat; The phalanx exchanged fire, the bayonet was about to be used in the next second, and he turned around and had a head-to-head battle with the Aiden who appeared from behind.

By 11:30 noon, all the 20,000 coalition troops had been engaged in the battle, and the total number of casualties, except for the Mist soldiers, did not exceed 200; the defenders of Iron Bell Fort had already been killed, and the remaining troops were completely unable to resist the attack. The wave of , let alone defend the entire castle, can only retreat into the inner castle to defend.

By twelve o'clock, all the retreat routes of Iron Bell Fort had been cut off, and the coalition forces had controlled all the outer walls and towers of the entire Iron Bell Fort, as well as half of the city; There is no other way out than fort and surrender.

So far, the siege of Iron Bell Fort has only been carried out for six full hours.

The situation of the battle went so smoothly to such an extent that Ruko Visania, who had just woken up from the hospital bed, was surprised and delighted.

The joy is of course that Anson Bach really kept his promise, and as he promised, he conquered the Iron Bell Fort in just one day!

It was a picture he had fantasized about all his life, a position he had been staring at for too long.

Luko still remembers the scene when he was only ten years old, supported by his mother and servants, and walked timidly into the hall of the Iron Bell Castle on that snowy night in the 40th year of the saint's calendar.

That year, I was still a child, and my father was a 27-year-old young man who was still childish, but already shouldered the important responsibility of protecting the country;

In that year, there were still seven years before the "Second Public Order Conference" of the dawn of peace in the world of order; at that time, Mist was still the real overlord of the vast land, joining forces with Aiden and Thun to win over Carindia to try to build a The Seven Cities Alliance, which can unite the entire Hantu, can deal with the threat of war in the northern continent;

That year, the servant knelt humbly in front of him, pointed to his father's chair with a teasing tone, and called himself "Little Mister Archduke";

That year, my father held himself high and proudly declared to everyone that he would surpass him and become the "Lord of the Land".

So I was looking forward to it... I looked forward to it for sixty years, the situation in the world was changing, the stars were changing, and only I was always one step away from the position that belonged to me.

My mood has also changed from full of yearning to full of expectations, to ambitious and on the verge of despair... until all this has completely turned into an obsession.

The mother died of illness, and the servant was murdered for betrayal... At that time, everyone cheering for him in the hall passed away one by one, and he also changed from a young boy to a gray-bearded, weak and rickety old man.

Only the father was still full of energy, sitting firmly in the chair.

The excited attendant told him that he might not have to wait until tomorrow, maybe he could be crowned Archduke Mist tonight... How could Ruko Visania not be overjoyed.

But it was the same thing that frightened him.

He is still very clear about the defense strength of Iron Bell Fort and the fighting strength of Grand Duke Mist's personal guards; now Ansen Bach has conquered Iron Bell Fort in less than a day, and this combat strength really cannot make him Don't feel intimidated.

What frightened him even more was that with such a strong Clovis army, what would he do to satisfy their appetite?

Merely the grave goods in Visania's ancestral tomb may not be enough, let alone how much treasure there is in it is unknown; once the final amount cannot satisfy Ansen Bach, it even makes him feel that he has lied to him. ,so what should I do now?

Pay reparations, cede territory, become a vassal of Clovis, or...

The more Luko Visania thought about it, the more frightened it became. He only felt that his heart that had just recovered was starting to beat fast again. It was as if something would tear open the top of his skull in the next second and crawl out of his body.

"Uh!"

The next second, the old man's body suddenly became violent, his eyes rolled white, and his limbs began to tremble involuntarily, "Pfft!" He lay back on the bed again, and began to foam at the mouth amid the exclamations of the chaotic servants. Convulsively fell into a state of unconsciousness.

However, this "little episode" did not affect the siege of Iron Bell Fort; or in fact, no matter who dies now, it cannot stop the already red-eyed coalition soldiers who are eager for victory and spoils They will fight to the last minute.

At 13:10, the line of infantry had completely occupied and controlled the entire periphery of Iron Clock Fort. After starting to clean the battlefield, Chief of Staff Carl Bain officially conveyed the order of Deputy Commander Anson Bach, the grenadier regiment and the skirmishers. Start to dispatch, under the cover of artillery fire and line, to attack the inner fort of Iron Bell Fort.

Groups of golden-red cannon flames lit up the earth again, pouring down like thunder on the Mist defenders, turning the ancient and noble castle into a pillar of fire shrouded in black smoke.

Amid the rumbling of cannons, the soldiers of the Storm Division Grenadier Regiment entered the battlefield with the cooperation of the "friends", and launched the final offensive as the "deputy commander" cronies.

This is not only for the purpose of "grabbing the merits of the war", but also to let the cronies who watched the whole drama end up to gain experience. To a certain extent, it is also a symbolic signal - to announce to the allies and at the same time to the enemy, the battle is over, and this will be the last. total attack.

"Won."

In the empty conference room, the expressionless Carl threw the matchbox on the table and reported to Anson with a cigarette in his mouth:

"The first battalion of the grenadier regiment led by Fabien himself, that is, the grenadier battalion of your storm regiment in the past, opened the way with grenades and directly blew the gate of the inner fort; the elite guards were all fired during the battle at the city gate. Now, the rest is to help the stinky fish and rotten shrimps, and they are completely vulnerable."

"Oh."

Anson held his chin and bowed his head silently.

"Someone from Mist said that the old gentleman Ruko Visania was in a coma again. He seemed to be overly surprised and his heart was not very good. I hope we can send him a military doctor - I agreed."

"Oh."

"Well, by the way, do you know that the Aiden and the Mist have given the Storm Division a new name, the Gray Shirt Army—just because someone is so stingy that he is reluctant to even wear a black and red military uniform."

"Oh."

"Also, Erich, the person in charge of the military factory, said that Miss Talia came to White Tower City, and then it was a coincidence that Miss Sophia from Franz's family was also here, waiting for you in White Tower City. Woolen cloth."

"Oh."

The expressionless An Sen nodded stiffly, his whole body was shocked like a sudden electric shock, and his frightened eyes seemed to burst out of their sockets in the next second: "What did you just say?!"

"I said several words just now, which one are you talking about?" Carl, who was holding his arms, rolled his eyes:

"Have Fabian breached the inner fort?"

"That's not it!"

"Luke is crazy again?"

"It's not like that!"

The terrified An Sen was stunned, and suddenly understood something: "You lied to me?"

"You are so smart, my gray shirt army commander." Carl snorted coldly, the corners of his mouth raised:

"If those two eldest ladies really came, do you think I would be the first to know?"

"What do you want to do?" An Sen clutched his chest and looked at him weakly.

"That's what I should say."

Carl's expression became serious again, and he leaned in front of Anson and stared into his eyes: "What do you want to do?"

"What?"

"Why strike the Iron Bell Fort?"

"What's the reason for this, didn't you see it all?"

"See what, you're a tomb robber? I don't doubt your lower moral level, but a bunch of funerary items can buy you off? No, no, no... Your shamelessness goes beyond this level."

"You overestimate me too much. I mainly look at his age. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is too pitiful."

"You're wrong."

Carl narrowed his eyes and stared at Anson meaningfully: "There must have been an accident, and it was an accident that must not be made public that forced you to do this... Right?"

"…"

The two who looked at each other were silent for a long time.

After twitching his throat, Carl suddenly withdrew his gaze, pulled out the chair next to him and sat down, turned his gaze out of the tent as if nothing had happened, and turned his back to Anson:

"...Can't tell me?"

"No." An Sen shook his head with a wry smile, and sighed long:

"The main reason is that this matter is really troublesome, and it is indeed an accident. I haven't figured out how to solve this matter, and...you guessed it, it must not be made public now."

"...The Thirteenth Council?"

"no."

"Duke Aiden has betrayed again?"

"Neither."

"…what is that?"

Carl finally couldn't help but turn his head: "It can't be the empire sending troops, right?"

Anson's smile froze on his face.

Carl was shocked: "Really?!"

"Uh...that's not it." Anson quickly shook his head to dispel his concerns, but his expression did not soften much:

"But the seriousness of the problem is not much worse than that of the empire sending troops... That's why I ordered the iron bell to be captured as soon as possible, because if I don't do this, I'm afraid it won't take too long for the entire Han soil to be torn apart again, and even some of our 'Allies' will also take the opportunity to backstab."

Under the gaze of Carl Bain, Anson with a dignified expression stretched his right hand into his arms: "Yesterday, I received an urgent letter."

"The sender is... Major General Ludwig Franz..."
