return to the throne

Chapter 51 War 51

Douglas was very disdainful of Quinn's latest order to him.

"Now that old man George doesn't talk to me at all, how can I think he wants the princess?" Douglas complained to his deputy. "Quinn, a bastard, will give such a difficult task. Does he think he is worthy of the princess? He is just a clown, and he wants to eat swan meat in a whimsical way. Sooner or later, I will take his arrogant card. Let's see if he dares to point fingers at me."

"General, I think the best way to shut up that guy in Lancaster is for us to make a big fuss." His deputy, who also served as his counselor, suggested, "Whether it's Quinn, or Newcastle, probably think we are not worth mentioning, especially Newcastle, this kind of meek way of fighting is almost like a game in his eyes, he doesn't take us seriously at all, he doesn't know that he has to face For what kind of enemy, I thought you were as easy to deal with as Quinn."

Douglas smiled sarcastically, "No matter how arrogant Old George is, he can still be considered a hero. He believed in what he believed in and was loyal to what he was loyal to. I admire his behavior, but what kind of king is Quinn?" At best, it was just luck. Just a lucky guy who attacked Lancaster, he was praised by his soldiers, and he called himself a king. Does anyone actually recognize him?At least many of the vassals of the swamp were not convinced by this bastard.

"So what do you mean?"

"Tomorrow, I will let Phoenix City know what is good and what is bad, and let the people of Lancaster see clearly that I am not an illegitimate child who can order it."

Even though he had already made a decision to attack the city tomorrow, Douglas still spent the night drinking. He drank a lot of ale, called a scantily clad girl, enjoyed it, and then got drunk like In the muddy state, he staggered up his bed and fell into a deep sleep.

He slept soundly and soundly, and had a dream of returning to Lancaster after victory and receiving the cheers of the crowd, but at this moment, he suddenly heard the neighing of horseshoes in the distance.

Douglas suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and got off the bed. For some reason, he had a bad feeling in his heart. He listened for a while in the dark. Beside him were the woman's soft and warm limbs, and the other's sweet and slippery little hands lightly. His arm was lightly clasped, but Douglas couldn't feel any warmth at the moment, he was cold all over his body.

He suddenly shouted, "There is an enemy attack!"

However, it was too late, two thousand hares suddenly surrounded him from all directions, five hundred cavalrymen and five hundred archers swept across his territory like a whirlwind, the horseshoes were heavy and sharp, and the arrows shot without missing a beat. In a quarter of an hour, the camp was as messy as after a hurricane.And the soldiers who woke up and hadn't put on their trousers were rushed in by an unknown number of infantrymen with sharp swords and fell to the ground. Most of them immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, and they were allowed to survive. The rest wanted to take up weapons. If you resist, your head will be cut off directly.

Douglas kicked an enemy away violently, and split half of his body in two with his sword. When he raised his head, he found many green eyes staring at him in the darkness. They were staring at him, and their dark eyes were like the eyes of wolves. .

"Kill him, a thousand gold coins."

"Capture him, a title."

Whispers kept coming from the side, and every word made this martial arts knight sweat on his forehead, especially when he found that there was no helper around him, his body shook with fear, he raised his sword, Whistling to call his beloved horse, but something was thrown in front of him, and Douglas' pupils shrank—it was the head of his deputy.

"Ahhhh!" Douglas rushed forward frantically, cut down two people and then fled. He is indeed very skilled in martial arts, but no matter how strong a swordsman is, he cannot withstand the siege of more than ten people.Soon he was on the ground, and someone grabbed his hair to force him to look up, and they put a dagger around his neck, leaving a trail of blood on Douglas's fragile throat.

Carlos rode up to him.

His armor was soaked in blood, and even the long sword in his hand and the saddle under his crotch were covered with a thick layer of blood. At this moment, Carlos seemed to be the god of death with a sickle. Anyone who saw him couldn't help but feel fear.

Douglas looked up at Carlos, he didn't know who this man was.

But he realized that this young man with a typical Aragonese appearance is definitely not some unknown little person. According to legend, members of the Castilian family all have the same blond hair and blue eyes, and this man in front of him People have hair that shines like gold and blue eyes as deep as lake water.

There was a trace of a calm smile on the corner of his mouth, and this smile didn't bottom out, which made Douglas feel extremely dangerous.

"You are Ka..." Before Douglas finished speaking, Carlos chopped off his head with a sword, and the blood spurted out instantly, splashing at least two meters high.

Before he died, there was still a surprised expression on his face, as if he didn't expect the other party to take his life with such a disagreement.

Carlos didn't need him to know either.

He wiped the blood from his face and motioned for the soldiers to hold up Douglas' head and show it to the surrounding rebels who were still fighting.

No one will work for a general who is dead.

Seeing Douglas and his deputy die, the remaining soldiers dropped their weapons and raised their hands to surrender. Carlos did not intend to do anything to those who no longer resisted. He ordered the hares to hand over these captives to the Black Dragon people.

At the same time, Adrian followed his uncle to Douglas' camp.

The wind of the battlefield carried a strange smell of burnt meat and blood, burning fires and broken limbs were everywhere, the wounded fell to the ground moaning, panting, begging the living to give them a good time, the rest Those who can't move probably have already gone to see the God of Light. Most of them are Douglas' soldiers. After they experienced random arrows, fire and enemy attacks, only a few hundred people were scattered and driven into the corner, waiting for the unknown future. destiny.

Adrian did not expect that when he came to the battlefield, he saw such a tragic scene. Before that, he had only seen the two armies fighting from a distance in the city. At that time, the general leading the army was his father, King James He is a man who would rather sacrifice himself than put his children in danger. He forbids Adrian to follow him on the battlefield. Although Adrian has repeatedly told him that he is not afraid of sacrifice, James still insists on keeping the two brothers and sisters in a safe place.

Therefore, before the city of Lanka was broken, Adrian had already left under the escort of Fay. He didn't see the rebels attacking the city with his own eyes, and he didn't know that it would be such a cruel scene after the war broke out.

Adrian couldn't accept this bloody scene for a while, and lowered his head, unable to bear to look at the situation around him.

Seyes didn't pay attention to Adrian's discomfort, he frowned and looked around, "Carlos' movements are really fast."

Seis was very surprised that the opponent could defeat the rebels so quickly. You must know that Douglas has [-] soldiers, which is twice as many as Carlos's. In such a situation, even as the sneak attacking party, the performance of the hares was shocking enough. Seyes could only lament that they were indeed hares, and their reputation was well-deserved.

At this moment, Carlos came on horseback.

The smell of blood on his body was very strong, his armor and sword were stained with blood, and he didn't know how many enemies he had killed that night, making him feel like a god of killing. Walking in from a distance gave people a heavy sense of oppression .

As he approached, Adrian covered his mouth and nose, feeling like he was going to throw up.

Carlos was a little unhappy that Seyes brought Adrian here, and his tone was cold, "Adrian, as I said, I hope you can stay in the camp."

Adrian looked away anxiously.

Seyes didn't like the other party talking to their prince in this tone, so he asked, "Where's Sir Douglas?"

Carlos sneered and threw him a bag casually. Seyes opened it and saw Sir Douglas' head inside.

Seyes' hands trembled. Although he knew that Douglas was not alive, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that Douglas was really dead. "Where's his body?"

If Douglas hadn't been chopped into meat by the red-eyed hares, Seyes hoped that he could bury each other properly. After all, they had served the same king, and Seyes wanted to preserve the friendship they had met at the beginning.

Carlos said, "My men are skinning him."

A burst of anger ignited in Seyes' heart, skinning?Behead?Should this be something a decent nobleman bears?That's right, Douglas is their enemy, but it's just their own masters. These days, it's not easy for anyone to live.Since he is dead, the body should not be treated like this, and he should be buried respectfully.

But when he looked into Carlos's emotionless eyes, he knew that the other party didn't feel sorry for Douglas' death at all. In Carlos' eyes, Douglas was just a stepping stone for him to build his own reputation. Whether the end of the stone was crushed or not? It didn't matter to him.

Carlos approached Adrian on horseback, "Let's go."

Adrian's mount was a docile filly. Seeing the tall and sturdy Dong Ri approaching intimately, he backed up a few steps uneasy, "Where are you going?"

"Don't you want to take a look here? They are cleaning the battlefield. I will show you around."

Adrian glanced at Seis subconsciously. In such a strange and terrifying place, he still trusted his natal uncle more. His behavior made Carlos feel a little displeased. He suddenly stepped forward and held him Adrian hugged himself immediately.

Adrian let out a cry.

Carlos supported his waist, held him firmly in his arms, and then smiled and said to Seyes, "I'll take him away first."
