Lord of Riders

Chapter 72: Surrender the defenders

The troops that received the signal immediately began to march towards Sagitcherburg. Now the soldiers on the wall have been eliminated by the shadow guards. No one noticed the arrival of the enemy at all. More than a thousand people entered the city swaggeringly, fifty. The cavalry blocked the gate, and Count Mamoun’s soldiers went through the wall. Shao Yu's Roman light infantry lined up in the city.

   "No, there is a situation outside, go out and have a look"

   Shao Yu's army swaggered into the city and naturally attracted the attention of some people. A small team leader found something unusual and hurriedly shouted to the soldiers under his hands.

   The soldiers hurriedly took up their weapons and ran out, only to see the city gate opened wide, and a large number of soldiers of unknown origin stood on the city wall.

   "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The captain was stunned for a long time when he saw this, and hurriedly shouted after he reacted.

   The soldiers who were resting also got up when they heard the sound. Before the armor was finished, they ran out with their weapons. They were stunned as soon as they went out. The city wall had already been lost, and the city gate opened wide. Looking around, they were all heavily armed soldiers.

   For a time, these defenders of Sagitcherburg suddenly became a mess. However, the soldiers quickly reported the news to the lord's wife and the little officer who stayed behind, a baron under the lord.

   The lady of the lord and the baron were panicked and at a loss when they heard that the walls of the castle had been occupied by enemies of unknown origin.

   The enemies on the city wall didn't talk nonsense with them, and one arrow shot directly down. Soon many soldiers were hit by arrows, and other soldiers hurriedly hid back to the barracks.

   "Don't panic, don't be afraid, fear of death will only make you die faster." When everyone is a little overwhelmed and hiding, there is a **** trying to stop these soldiers from fleeing in panic.

   "Mount your horses, we will fight the enemy to the death!" Napozi shouted

Although it was just a few simple words, they calmed down these headless soldiers slowly. The enemy came too suddenly and the soldiers were caught off guard, but after all they were regular troops with certain training. After a brief period of confusion, the enemy came too suddenly. Order was soon restored. The soldiers returned to their captains.

   Seeing someone start to organize to restore order, Shao Yu was a little surprised. He didn't expect these old and weak soldiers to have the courage to resist in front of powerful enemies.

   Shao Yu took a closer look at that Pozi who called on other soldiers to resist him was still a big acquaintance, and Batu who was chatting together not long ago.

   "Tell my brothers, don't hurt the person who shouts"

   Shao Yu commanded the soldiers under his opponent, and the order was passed on quickly, including Count Mamuen's side.

   The archers also deliberately avoided Batu when they attacked.

   After Batu’s shout, these soldiers finally gathered together again. A fire had been ignited over the stables, and the horses fled around. Obviously, the enemy had already taken control of the stables.

   Helpless, these defenders had to fight on foot, although this is not their strong point.

   The defenders of Fort Sagitcher were shot and killed more than 100 people as soon as they came up. Adding to the more than 30 people killed by the shadow guards, there are now less than 300 people left to fight.

   But when the Sagitcher garrison reluctantly organized and prepared to fight back, the archers on the wall suddenly stopped attacking.

"what happened?"

"I do not know"

   The soldiers of Fort Sagitcher curiously said when the enemy stopped attacking

   "Mr. Batu, our lord respects you as a loyal warrior, a brave knight, as long as you are willing to submit to us, everyone here can leave alive"

   Just when the Sajiche soldier was puzzled, Cage stood on the gate and shouted loudly.

   "Thank you lord for your kindness, I am the knight of Kujit, I will not surrender to you" Batu replied

   "Bad brother Batu really is a warrior who pays attention to chivalry" After Batu said, Shao Yu also walked to the gate tower and said

   "It's you!" Batu was surprised that Shao Yu turned out to be. He didn't expect that the lord he put into the city not long ago turned out to be hostile to Sagitcherburg.

“Mr. Batu doesn’t have to feel guilty. Not long ago, we had nothing to do with the Kujit Khanate, but today, we declared war. I was not an enemy when you let me in.” Shao Yu knew Batu would be a little self-conscious. Take the initiative to say

   "Our army has more than a thousand people, and they occupy a favorable position. You have no chance of winning, so surrender, everyone can survive" Shao Yu persuaded

   "Of course, as long as you refuse, the arrow in the hands of the archer on the wall will immediately be inserted into your brother's body" Shao Yu said in a threatening tone

   The Kujit soldiers below were silent. Listening to their conversation, they felt a strain on Shao Yu’s words. They had no doubt that as long as Batu rejected the lord, the hundreds of archers on the wall would immediately release arrows.

   Although they managed to organize resistance, these soldiers knew very well that the strength of the enemy and ours was too different. According to the enemy's lord, there were at least a thousand enemies. Moreover, it occupies the city wall and is condescending on the ground. There are a large number of infantry and cavalry on the ground. On the other hand, the Sagitcher Fort’s garrison, the all-horse cavalry, numbered less than 300. If the local lord wants to surrender Batu, the opponent can destroy it at any time. Lost them and seized Fort Sagitcher.

   Batu hesitated after hearing what Shao Yu said. Batu is very brave, but now he can obviously feel ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ around three hundred pairs of eyes are staring at him. Because their life and death are between their own thoughts.

   Although Batu was bold and courageous, he hesitated at this moment and did not immediately recover Shao Yu.

   This is not to say that these soldiers are greedy for life and fear of death, but that no one wants to die so humiliatingly and meaninglessly.

   "Mr. Batu, I know you are a knight who values ​​honor, and I know what you are thinking." Shao Yu said with a smile

   Batu looked at Shao Yu and did not answer

   "Even a nobleman or even a king may surrender his opponent when he knows he is lost," Shao Yu said

"And those real nobles, they will not let their subordinates sacrifice in vain. Do you think that you are a knight desperately? Do you get honor? Think about how many people are buried for your honor, so that your honor is also selfish. The honor" Shao Yu continued

   Batu was shocked when he heard it, but he didn't expect Shao Yu to buckle himself such a big hat.

   Shao Yu was very proud to see Batu not answering a word. Shao Yu has always attached great importance to recruiting talents. In this chaotic Calradia continent, brave and courageous people like Batu are not common, and they are loyal and loyal.

   Shao Yu discovered that Batu is unusual from the last few dealings. Today’s performance made Shao Yu decide to try his best to let him submit to him.

   At the same time, Shao Yu also hopes to occupy Sagitcherburg as peacefully as possible. Shao Yu does not want to kill too many people. In the war years, everyone was irresistibly involved in it, and killing people without restraint was meaningless.

   After such a tossing, the soldiers no longer had the idea of ​​continuing to resist. It was a last-minute fight and there was nowhere to go, but now Shao Yu gave them a chance to survive.

  All eyes are on Batu
