Public trial?You deserve it too!

Hearing the noise of people outside, the governor became more and more manic, so he angrily walked to the gate of the city lord's mansion with his sword in his hand, and saw the gate opened, and the guards outside were confronting the gathered refugees.

"What are you in a daze for! Rush over and kill them!"

"My lord! After all, these are just civilians..."

"Bullshit civilians! They dared to set fire tonight, and I don't even dare to think about what they dare to do tomorrow! These people might be spies from the rebels! We must punch hard! Kill them all!"

The captain of the guard raised his hand helplessly, ready to order the massacre.

"boom!"

The huge explosion turned the entire gate of the city lord's mansion into ruins. The guards who were originally in a tight formation were suddenly swept away by the shock wave, and there were scorched corpses, flames and black smoke everywhere.

Claude withdrew his hand calmly. With the system in place, building magic is a matter of a few breaths. Even if there are magicians in the city lord's mansion, it is impossible to react.

"The nobles of Gou Ri have been condemned by God, rush in to grab food!"

With a shout, dozens of Theocracy's spies were the first to react. They immediately knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They rushed into the blasted gate with thousands of people in their arms.

A hand stretched out, pulled the governor who was still in a trance, extinguished the flames on his body, and then shook desperately.

"My lord, my lord!"

The deliberately lowered voice was full of tension, and the governor's mind finally returned to his body.

In front of him was a young guard, the armor on his body was in tatters, but the anxiety and loyalty on his face were reassuring.

"What... what's the matter!"

"My lord! You are right, there are indeed rebel spies among the civilians, and now they have stormed into the city lord's mansion!"

"What, what!"

The governor wanted to run out to see what was going on, but he was grabbed,

"My lord governor, it's useless! The city of Aix is ​​over! I saw flames in the direction of the city gate. The other party must have been prepared to attack both inside and outside. Let's run away!"

"Escape? Escape! Yes, yes, yes, yes! Run away... run away!"

The governor, who was already frightened by the explosions and frightened, seemed to have grasped the life-saving straw, and tightly grasped the guard's arm.

"Quick, take me out quickly! I have a reward, and the reward is yours!"

"My lord, don't panic. The rebels are just rebels after all. As long as you arrive at the Lavender Knights' camp, we will be safe. When the time comes, let the Knights protect you and you will be able to escape!"

"Yes, yes, yes! The knights' residence is just to the east of the city lord's mansion, hurry up, take me away!!"

The Wind Rises on Europa: Chapter 49

After the explosion, all members of the Lavender Knights went on alert, woke everyone up, and waited for the situation with full armor.

Originally, the military camp was outside the city, but the governor was worried that the identities of these refugees were complex, so he transferred the knights into the city and stationed them not far from the city lord's mansion to facilitate timely rescue.

"General! The City Lord's Mansion is suspected to have been breached by a magician. Now refugees have rushed into the City Lord's Mansion. The governor is dead or alive!"

"What!" The head of the Knights was taken aback, and then immediately ordered, "Lavender Knights! Come out to rescue the City Lord's Mansion!"

However, before he left, more than a dozen flames rose up in the city at the same time, especially the four gates, all of which were full of flames.

"This...how is this possible!"

"My lord, the rebel army must have hidden a large number of people in the city. Now, no matter inside or outside the city, there must be enemies everywhere. We..."

The deputy head's words are obvious. The situation is chaotic now. Needless to say, the city lord's mansion is definitely the center of this storm. Although the knights of the Knights are powerful, the battlefield is in the streets of the city late at night. Compared with those mobs, It may not be possible to gain much upper hand.

"No, after all, the Governor is so kind to us, I can't leave him alone and run for my life, otherwise how dare I pretend to be a knight?"

The head of the group shook his head, but the deputy head also quickly waved his hands.

"My lord, you misunderstood me. What I mean is that people must be sent from the city lord's mansion, but they can't come out in full force. After all, it's late at night, and too many people can't do it on horseback. Why don't you continue to take the man with you?" The main force is going to the rescue. I will take two long knight brigades to stay in the camp and send scouts to find out the situation. Once you rescue the governor, return immediately. We will find out which city gate is still in our hands. Can."

"Okay!" The regiment leader nodded immediately, this is indeed the safest way, "Julian, I will leave you an extra squadron of long knights, the current situation in the city, sending scouts may not be possible to survive, you must arrange the knights The team went out to investigate, and must hold the camp while I am going to rescue the governor!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Julien stayed behind with the three brigades, watched the head of the group leave, and then turned to look at the three captains.

"I'm starting to arrange the investigation team now. Remember, the main purpose is to investigate the four city gates and contact the knights of our regiment stationed there. Don't trust anyone you meet along the way. Anyone who dares to make a move will be killed without mercy! "

"Yes!"

Soon the people dropped down, and the remaining people immediately began to prepare for defense.

However, this preparation carried an indelible smell of blood.

"My lord, all the people who are not us have been killed."

The two captains half knelt before Julien.

"Very good. I didn't expect my colleagues outside to do such a good job. It seems that this time, we are determined to win the province of Provence!"

A cold gleam flashed in Julien's eyes.

"For the Theocracy!"

"For the Theocracy!"

Inside the camp, there were fanatical shouts.

-------------------------------------

The fat man watched as the heavy city gate was opened, and countless refugees poured in. Those soldiers who had already defected brought out the weapons stored in the warehouse and handed them to everyone who was willing to kill.

"The Theocracy... is really well-prepared."

"After all, this place is close to us. The Turin province has solid walls and clear fields. There is nothing to infiltrate. Of course, we can only use our strength here."

Julien smiled and wiped the blood from the sword on his hand. It is true that there should not be enough churches at the city gate to take down the city gate, but being attacked by the deputy head of the Lavender Knights led by two long knights, it was another matter. It's the same thing.

"It seems that the plan is going well?"

Claude fell from the roof and looked at the two "talking happily".

"Master Envoy."

Gorman and Julien saluted simultaneously.

"The plan went very smoothly. I didn't expect that there would be a surprise. The leader also left me an extra long knight brigade. Naturally, I accepted the result with a smile."

Julien beamed.

"So, counting the knights stationed at the four city gates before, the commander's rescue force is only half left?" Claude smiled.

"That's right, he will use this half of his people to fight fiercely in the middle of the night, and then face the Governor I sent over and the news that 'the camp has been attacked by a powerful enemy and is about to be captured', he will definitely escape with all his strength and leave enough people behind To stop the 'powerful enemy who captured the camp', so now the governor, with at most a quarter of the knights around him, still fought all night. There are pursuers behind, and there is no investigation before them. To annihilate them, It's so easy!"

Julien looked at Claude with admiration. This special envoy of the Theocracy really has a lot of means. They are obviously an absolutely inferior force, but this lord actually relied on the late night and the one-way nature of intelligence to make everyone think that the Imperial Army Only at an absolute disadvantage, the knights' strength was exploited layer by layer, and there were not many left; while the city defenders had no leader at the beginning, and fought on their own.

"Okay, Master Julien has praised you, then, General Galapache, it's your turn to show your loyalty to the Theocracy."

Claude looked at Gorman with a sneer.

"Annihilating an empire's knight order, plus a provincial governor, this great achievement is enough to make you a celebrity in the church country, and you will have a bright future at that time. Even if you want to be the governor of Wallachia, it's not Impossible."

The fat man's hands trembled, but he forcibly suppressed it, and his words contained obvious anger: "Although I have a lot of people, but I don't have horses, how can I catch up with them?"

"Hey, General Galapash, since we are colleagues, how can you let your knights chase the enemy on foot? Don't worry, the horses of the Lavender Knights are all tall horses, which will definitely satisfy you. "

Julien looked at him maliciously.

"...It also takes time to choose horses and equipment!"

"Never mind, their horses won't last long."

Claude said calmly.

"You put medicine in the horse's fodder!" The fat man suddenly turned around.

"No, no, I originally thought so, but my lord stopped me, saying that this might prevent the other party from leaving the city of Exe, so I didn't prescribe the medicine." Julien shook his head, "But the special envoy is exhaustive. He had already guessed in which direction the other party would flee, prepared countless horse traps on the road, and diverted water to turn the surrounding farmland where horses could walk into mud, making it impossible to leave on horseback.”

"Then our horses won't be able to walk either?"

"General Galapache, don't delay any longer, or the credit will be entirely due to General Julien."

Claude laughed.

"As for how I want to keep those knights without horses, you will know when you catch up."

The Wind Rises on Europa: Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Interlocking

Lavender Knights are named after the most famous plant in Provence. Naturally, lavender has been used as a symbol since its establishment. These proud men are proud of the lavender fragrance they get from their bodies, and they have the reputation of "Flower Fragrance Knights".

The fat man stared blankly at the group of knights rolling in the mud and smelling bad, and couldn't see their previous demeanor for a long time.

"It seems that you came a step too late, General Galapache, this time the credit for annihilating the Imperial Lavender Knights will all go to General Julien."

Claude rode lightly past him.

The fat man didn't even turn his head. He watched Julien lead the Holy See's army, walked over with a smirk, and killed these people who had little resistance with one knife at a time.

He walked over, looked through their food bags, looked at the overturned stoves and marching pots, and finally looked up at Claude.

"You let Julien poison the rations?"

"How come, poison is not easy to find. I just sprinkled the laxative that General Julien prepared in the horse food and sprinkled it on the air-dried meat. Now that I have prepared it, I can't waste it."

"That's it. Ordinary dry food can be eaten at any time. It cannot be ruled out that they ate while fighting last night, which would expose them. However, air-dried meat cannot be imported without cooking. They escaped and encountered so many traps." , You must know that there is still an interception ahead, so you must stop, rest and eat, and break through the blockade in the best condition."

Claude applauded: "Excellent speculation, as expected of the general, he found my means right away."

The fat man didn't speak, but just stared at Claude.

"Are you... a human or a demon?"

"What does the general mean by that?"

Claude smiled and looked at the Governor of Provence who was brought to him by Julien.

"Your Excellency, I think you should be a person who knows the current affairs?"

The governor, who had already lost his shape, was full of anxiety: "My lord, my lord, I am a nobleman, and I am willing to pay the ransom!"

"Ransom? Then we can talk about it." Claude motioned them to drag this guy down.

"My lord, what should we do next?"

There was respect in Julien's voice.

"Mr. Julien, there should be a lot of luggage from the Lavender Knights in the warehouse, right?"

"Yes."

"Then please continue to play the role of the Lavender Knights. The two brigades are almost exactly the force to break out of the encirclement and escort the governor northward. In this way, you will not be suspected when you meet the imperial army who came to reinforce you?"

Julien hesitated for a while, and still expressed his concerns: "My lord, you can deceive the other party in such a short period of time, but among the people who came to reinforce, there must be someone who knows the governor. It is inevitable that people will be suspicious.”

"Who said you need to delay for so long? As long as you can fool the other side for a moment, that's enough." Claude stretched out his hand and pointed to the north.

"This... my lord, I don't understand."

Claude motioned for Fatty to come over: "The counter-rebel army of the empire, do you know the strength?"

"I already know this. Major General Erin's Front Rock Knights are the main force, leading [-] infantry. They have already set off. Counting the time, they will soon arrive in the province of Provence."

Julien made a detailed inventory.

"This army, we can't deal with it in the field."

"Yes, but we are not without advantages. Most of the infantry in the province of Provence are in the northeast. Now the Lavender Knights have been wiped out by us, and other places can be said to be under the control of the rebels and us. And now Aix is ​​also in our hands. It is impossible for the counter-insurgency army to have heavy siege equipment. The Provence Plain has been developed for a long time and there are not many forests and trees. It is impossible for the opponent to capture the heavy city we are defending. Just wait and see."

Julien hastened to express his thoughts.

"But have you ever thought that the support forces of the Theocracy must arrive from the sea, and the empire's naval strength in the Mediterranean is not weak. If you want to hide it from the past, there must not be too many troops, and now the power of the Theocracy has been exposed. I'm afraid that the sea transportation will also be cut off."

"This……"

Fatty understood the problem.

"That is to say, unless the Theocracy really declares war, uses the Mediterranean fleet, or sends a large army to attack the province of Turin, otherwise the Theocracy will not be able to give much substantive help?"

"That's right, so we can't just stick to it. Once we defend the city, it will be a dead end."

"But...we even took a trick and gambled to win Aix, so why should we deal with the reinforcements of the empire? The team composed of those mobs can defend the city well. Once we go out of the city to fight in the field, I can charge with a large team. crush 1 of them."
