Of course, when he finally left the ruins of the mining area, Jiang Tian did not forget to pour the lake water temporarily collected in the "Dimensional Bubble" module into the entrances of the mines again. Until he reached most of the hidden exits, the water overflowed. .This will not leave any future troubles.
However, this also made him notice one thing, that is, he said that the lake water collected was turbid; however, the lake water poured out again was quite clear, with only some sediment residue at most; combined with the fact that it could not collect living animals restrictions, whether this can be used as a means of water purification.
Although this sudden episode that happened halfway only allowed Jiang Tian to stay near Alais City for one more day, it also reminded him of something. Because, according to the remaining thoughts of the unknown alien before it was annihilated, this world A certain mystery is slowly reviving.
Therefore, the vitality of the alien species is gradually increasing invisibly and tangibly. In fact, the original scope of spiritual/dream influence of the monster in this stone pillar was the mine ruins around the small lake; but it has also slowly expanded to the surrounding villages. and settlements, and even on the river valley road.
In addition, as human beings in this world, they also contain trace amounts of energy to varying degrees, which are slowly awakened/revealed; therefore, they are very suitable as sacrifices for alien absorption/blood sacrifice. This is what this monster is eyeing from afar. , and took the initiative to enter the dream to provoke Jiang Tian.
Because the abundant energy/bloodline limit contained in him is so suitable as a carrier of will transfer, so much so that it attracts it like a moth to a flame and hits the iron plate. But this is not enough to make people boast, because in it In my mind, I passed by at least several threatening entities.
This also gave Jiang Tian a faint sense of urgency. It was necessary for him to speed up the pace of action and the progress of military campaigns, expand and consolidate the existing sphere of influence; only then could he concentrate all his vast resources, including manpower and material resources, to face the To another wave of the coming era.
After all, the appearance of groups of aliens among the enemy troops, as well as the strangeness that they don't know when they will wake up, are the best warning and sign. Therefore, after the army set off again, Jiang Tian ordered to speed up while picking out The inheritance knights form a strange army.
Then, everyone was equipped with two horses and two saddles, one riding one and the other carrying weapons and armor, and he personally took the lead. Along the narrow mountainous area in the upper reaches of the Severn Valley, the invasion was like fire, rushing slowly all the way. It connects eleven cities including La Grande and Andiz in the Lower Lozère department.
When there is no need to consider logistical supplies for the time being, if the heritage knights disguised as the orthodox army are the first to attack, and a large group of cavalry comes to cover them up, there is almost always a result that they will fall. Even if they are accidentally discovered and noticed, they can still rely on Pushed through with tyrannical force.
Moreover, after defeating or forcing the defenders to surrender and capture the city, this vanguard force, composed of more than ten companies, concentrated all the animals and horses in the formation to travel, without too much stop and repair, and spread the news non-stop. Before leaving, rush to the next city.
Therefore, when this dusty army finally arrived at the city of Mende, the capital of the Lozère province and another important stronghold occupied by the Milan army, there was still a relaxed and unprepared atmosphere in the city; there was even On the road I encountered several groups of soldiers returning from robbery.
However, this time, the city gate defenders were more vigilant and more responsible than in other places. They actually interrogated them carefully. Jiang Tian led the "orthodox" officers for a while; but because there were so many
The prisoners confessed, but in the end they were reluctantly dealt with.
However, the officer guarding the gate then restricted it, and only dozens of orthodox officers led by Jiang Tian, together with some of the escorts, could enter the city first; only after obtaining permission from the principal army headquarters in the city, subsequent troops were allowed to enter the city;
Not even willing to accept bribes.
But it didn't matter. Since Jiang Tian could be allowed to enter the city, what happened next was completely out of their control. Then, the "Orthodox Army" soldiers who sneaked into the city in batches from other city gates gathered.
Regain full armor next to Jiang Tian.
Then, they wore the robes of the principality army, blocked the previous city gate with noise, and started making trouble on the spot. They also gave the dozen or so companies waiting not far outside the city a signal to cooperate inside and outside. So they waited until
The gatekeeper officer realized something was wrong too late.
At the same time, amidst the commotion of orders on the streets and the chaotic flow of people from the principality soldiers who were scrambling to emerge from private houses, inns, and taverns with their trousers pulled up, Jiang Tian led dozens of people.
A legacy knight came to the headquarters.
Then the old thing happened again. Although faced with a group of armed men who rushed in shouting and urgent military information, the armored guards on duty outside the city hall reacted immediately, holding swords and spears.
Come forward and surround them in reverse, and shout a warning to the inside;
However, under the attack of dozens of heritage knights who lifted their blouses to reveal their plate armor, the temporary formation they formed based on their numbers was as fragile as paper. In the blink of an eye, they were knocked over, knocked down, and chopped down.
He was killed on the ground; the next moment, more guards rushed out.
However, in front of dozens of heritage knights wearing plate armor, lowering their helmets to cover their faces, and wielding broadswords, axes, and hammers, they just blocked the encounter and were massacred one-sidedly. In the blink of an eye, they were overwhelmed again.
Unable to resist, they roared and roared into the city hall.
Then, some fish that slipped through the net emerged from the pillars, stairs, and corners of the wall. They couldn't wait to rush towards it and strolled in the last river. Then suddenly their eyes were blurred or the world was turned upside down, and they were thrown.
On the marble collage floor, or hang on the wall.
Then, as lines of blood flowed down, they twitched slightly or vomited blood and then died. Therefore, the inheritance knights, who were rampaging and killing in all directions, rushed into the innermost garden; they were in one place.
The tea party set up in the open air encountered some obstructions and obstacles.
They were a group of red swordsmen who were particularly good at combined attacks; they did not wear armor and were light in stature. While leaping back and forth to dodge the attacks of various long soldiers and heavy weapons, they wielded military straight swords and swift swords, constantly interacting with each other.
Stabs and sneak attacks, in the gaps between the plate armor of those heritage knights;
Although it was not able to completely pierce and hit these armor gaps, causing fatal injuries, it did successfully cause many heritage knights to retreat due to injuries. At the same time, there was also a man wearing a huge ostrich feather pointed hat.
As he muttered something, he suddenly spread his hand and something came out.
The three heritage knights who broke through the encirclement of the red-clothed swordsmen suddenly burst into flames. They were so startled that they hurriedly rushed towards the nearby fountain pool. However, when they stood up again,
The flame on his body has not been extinguished yet...
Just when most people couldn't help but change their expressions, they heard a voice shouting: "That's just an illusion, a deception that can't be put on the stage." However, the backward Jiang Tian also walked into the garden,
But in his field of vision, those green fires had no energy response at all.
But the man in the ostrich feather pointed hat changed his expression when he heard this. The next moment, he took out a small pot from his arms and threw a large cloud of white smoke forward. Then it turned into a fire that burned out of thin air.
A barrier of fire clouds; and several swordsmen in red were swept into it.
In an instant, they screamed loudly, and the affected heads and faces showed obvious burns of charred skin, rotten flesh, and burning clothes. At this time, they heard a fierce roar of wind, but a large bush
The trees were uprooted and their branches and leaves were smashed over.
At least seven or eight red-clothed swordsmen who were unable to dodge were knocked over and drowned by the roaring trees. At the same time, the fire cloud barrier burning out of thin air was also torn apart by the dense branches and leaves, and in the blink of an eye, it was scattered.
and then dissipated into the air;
The face of the man in the pointed hat also became extremely pale and pale; the next moment he took out another white glass bottle and smashed it towards the ground; suddenly there was a loud bang and a large cloud of sparks and thick smoke exploded.
Then, it was like reminding those heritage knights.
They all took off the gunpowder cans and incendiary cans hanging on their waists, and some people put hand cannons on their armbands, and threw or fired them at the red swordsmen in front of them who were scrambling to retreat.
It burst out with a bang; it was like a storm that knocked them down and overturned them.
Then, big trees that were pulled out and came through the air one after another also blocked the retreat of these red swordsmen, causing them to be bumped and hung down, severely limiting their movement and combat range; they were also collided by the inheritance knights.
After getting close, he punched and slapped, causing numerous casualties...
Therefore, when Jiang Tian passed through the smoke, he shot to death one after another, kicked over several red swordsmen who tried to get up in the smoke to attack; the man in the pointed hat saw that there was no way to escape, and couldn't help but throw him down.
On the ground; pointing in one direction and shouting: "I surrender, the legion commander is there."
After a while, a middle-aged general who was hiding under a fallen tree, with gray temples and a solemn appearance, and several chains hanging on his chest, was also dragged out. He patted the dust and branches on his body and tried to stand up.
He straightened his body and raised his head towards Jiang Tian and said with a trembling voice:
"The Principality of Milan, the Commander of the Turin Army, the Royal Seal, and the Count of Monlière, surrender to you; I hope to receive a ransom of my identity, equal and matching treatment..."
In the capital of the Ardèche province, the military camp of the Principality of Milan outside the city of Obna. Under the offensive of the Free Army that came out of the city overnight to attack, it was drowned in fireworks and the sound of fighting. When the sky brightened again,
, only prisoners and corpses were left in the Milan army camp.
"I have done what I promised." Sihano, the big-nosed swordsman who was looking at all this, also said in a deep voice: "I hope you can also keep your promise and give me and Roxana a peaceful life.
A place of refuge from strife and danger."
"Please rest assured, I have sworn with the sword in my hand, and I will not break my promise again." Thiago, the captain of the team who had just lifted the siege crisis, also said in a relaxed and cheerful mood: "I have also written a letter of recommendation.
As long as you bring the person out, he can be sent to Avignon immediately."
"At least that place has been thoroughly cleaned up from top to bottom by the chief's army, and a local joint defense and protection system has been established." Thiago then added: "Perhaps there is no place like this in this huge kingdom.
A safer and calmer place.”
"But after you go back, how will you deal with the questioning and cross-examination of those Milanese nobles? Do you need some help from me?" Thiago then suggested: "I can try to let you rescue some of the prisoners, and then serve as your
