In the blink of an eye, this hunchbacked giant monster that once ran rampant in the army and wreaked havoc in no man's land had become mutilated everywhere, and blood flooded a large area of the ground like a fountain; the dying pain continued to wail.
His body twitched, but he couldn't get up anymore.
When the Free Army soldiers saw this scene, they stopped rushing to catch up; their morale was boosted and they cheered. On the contrary, the Burgundian Army was launching a massive counterattack. After all, it was a dozen.
A humpbacked monster that is 1.3 meters tall and looks like a small hill.
Just above the commotion and hubbub that suddenly fell in the distance, it was not small at all. Therefore, the armies with different affiliations and backgrounds were also the first to bear the brunt of various fluctuations and chaos. The left and right wing troops followed closely.
Some people turned around and ran away in groups.
Among the attacking formations in the middle, although there were teams that continued to charge forward bravely, there were also a few teams that slowed down while running, and stopped after a while, and then they were overturned on the spot by the friendly troops catching up from behind.
They were pushing and jostling into a ball.
Therefore, among the Conté Army on the battlefield, the only ones who could directly engage with the Free Army in the end were the Jin Gentry (country) cavalry at the front, and the knights, retinues and armed forces of the Dijon Knights.
Attendants. Account for about one-third of all legion members.
However, when they were fighting left and right in the array of the Free Army's spears/white soldiers, firecrackers/cannons, someone discovered that other troops who were supposed to follow up in the legion's attack sequence were
All were gone; only the flag of dust and smoke was fading away.
For a time, the anger and panic of being betrayed and betrayed quickly enveloped these warriors who were trapped in the enemy's lines. Later, the armed attendants with limited equipment and relatively weak fighting will became the first to collapse on the battlefield; they were under shelling
He turned around and ran away while shouting and whistling.
Then there were the retinues and cavalry who were skimming the outer formation. In the repeated attempts to contain the harassment, they were hung with blood on the wire barriers, parapets, and sharp stakes. Finally, some people finally lost their courage unbearably and secretly secretly
Turn your horse around and flee away from the enemy.
Therefore, as a large number of the Burgundian legions were defeated and fled into the city of Dijon, most people could only stand on the city wall and watch helplessly, surrounded by the enemy and still fighting on their own, hundreds of heavyweights from the Knights of Dijon.
Pretending to be a knight, he was constantly tripped, overturned, knocked off his horse, and disappeared among the enemy's followers.
However, the Free Army, which had just experienced a series of fierce battles, had no spare power to continue the attack. Therefore, in the city of Dijon that night, the streets were full of soldiers patrolling with open fires and holding sticks; they were busy with interrogations and arrests.
A man who dared to disobey curfew orders.
One of the royal palaces in Dijon, the Palais Phillipe, was also brightly lit. As the royal marshal/provincial governor, Prince Conté was also dressed in military uniforms to receive guests all night long, including many from the noble families in the city.
representatives and redeployed city defenses at the meeting.
But unexpectedly, this "defender" and "Prince of Iron Hands" who had shown no mercy to political opponents and rebels did not pursue too much. The generals and officers who escaped from the city instead;
It affirmed their decision to preserve their vitality for the sake of the dynasty.
And in front of many noble families in the city, he was also full of confidence and unwavering; his sworn determination relied on the solid defense of this ancient city to completely crush the snooping and coveting plans of those southern rebels to go north here.
Under a glorious city.
However, he took advantage of the situation and made more requests. For example, the donation and solicitation of large amounts of food supplies and equipment, as well as allowing more family members, vassals, retinues, and guards to join the garrison on the city wall to serve as a kind of
A team of supervisors to guard against mutiny among ordinary soldiers.
But then, when he faced the audience of the citizens and representatives of the chamber of commerce in the city, he was not so polite. Almost in a few words, he caught the excuse and ordered angrily on the spot.
Its preventive arrests, searches and house searches.
Immediately afterwards, he ordered to send out enough soldiers and spies to secretly monitor the lower-class neighborhoods in the city where the poor, beggars, craftsmen, and apprentices gathered together. Because according to the information he had secretly learned, the southern rebels liked to work in mines, factories, and other places.
Recruit internal talents in the workshop area.
Therefore, he has already told the trusted officers to lead the team, secretly prepared enough kerosene and firewood, and built corresponding isolation zones. In this way, if the untouchables in the lower-class neighborhoods dare to make any changes, they can have the upper hand.
Set fires everywhere, completely destroying and destroying his plans.
After arranging all this, Prince Kongtai ordered all the attendants and cronies present to leave. He went alone to the inner room of the palace's audience hall, in front of a beautifully embossed wall, and pressed the switch to open a hidden wine cabinet.
, and took out a bottle of wine with a special formula.
After giving myself a full glass of wine and drinking it, my whole body slowly relaxed. I was temporarily freed from my original role as a majestic and decisive general marshal. Instead of suppressing my emotions, I grabbed the weapon hanging on the wall and fiercely
Rant and smash as a way to vent.
After all, in this daytime battle, he not only lost his heir; he also lost three legions of Champagne, Ardennes and Conté; a total of nearly 30,000 soldiers. What's more terrible is that even if he used the
The taboo secret trump card failed in the end.
With the full cooperation of those aliens in the darkness, he had great difficulty in finding such a giant mountain monster that only existed in folklore. And if he wanted to wake it up and induce it, the price he had to pay was even more astonishing.
; But in the end they were defeated by the southern rebels.
Although he did not understand what was going on, he also knew the corresponding stakes. Because this meant that among the southern rebels, there was a powerful and extraordinary force that could confront this giant monster and even capture it and suppress it. This kind of power
It is more likely to shake the fighting spirit of the dynasty soldiers.
The even greater bad news is that too many people have seen the raging trolls on the battlefield. Even if he forbids discussing similar topics in the army and sends law enforcement teams to severely punish them; but regarding the Burgundian dynasty and
Rumors among aliens still spread rapidly in the city.
Even some officers and generals with noble backgrounds had doubts and worries because of this. Prince Kongté could not even directly punish and hold them accountable. Because after losing the knighthood as the core and foundation of the legion, Prince Kongté still
We must continue to rely on them to defend the city.
Otherwise, once they bring soldiers with family backgrounds and try to escape from the city or cause chaos in the city, the consequences will not be acceptable to Prince Kongtai. After venting in the wanton destruction, Prince Kongtai
Also calmed down by the effects of alcohol.
At least, he still has this fortified big city, as well as hundreds of thousands of city residents and tens of thousands of soldiers, as a basis for long-term persistence. As a member of the mercenary in his early years, he led his companions on the edge of life and death on the battlefield.
His experience also allowed him to weigh the pros and cons more rationally.
After dawn, he sent people out of the city to try to exchange for his heir at a certain price; then through the influence of the church, he carried out publicity in the city; he said that the mountain monster was rebelled against the party in the south and used cruel and blasphemous methods.
He was awakened, but suffered a backlash.
At the same time, with a gentle knock on the door, a slim figure quietly walked into the lounge where the floor was messy and the walls collapsed. Then, a pair of snow-white arms hugged him from behind, and he sat like a rock.
On the sofa, Prince Conté was sitting deep in thought.
"How dare you come here?" He suddenly woke up, and then he held the arms in his arms; the hard contours and straight folds on his face suddenly softened. "You should have heard about it during the day.
At this time, it is even more important to avoid suspicion."
"It's precisely because I heard those rumors that I want to appear by your side!" The owner of the snow-white arms said in a lazy and magnetic voice: "Even if I don't become a public person, in Fran
Not even the mistress of the palace, but at least she is an important member of your court."
The speaker was a beautiful woman in her prime years, dressed in a long skirt and high sideburns; she was also a member of the inner court of Prince Conté, and she daily acted as an eyeliner and spy leader. But she was also a Burgundy.
Members of the No. 1 family can be regarded as the nieces and nephews of Prince Kongtai;
Therefore, even though she has a husband and a family on the surface, she still maintains an extraordinary taboo relationship with Prince Kongtai through various means in private. Under normal circumstances, only after she comes forward can things be settled.
The anger and intense emotions of Prince Conté.
However, Prince Kongté knew another secret identity of Lady Charlotte, that she had lived for an unknown number of years under multiple names in the family; she was also the key figure who introduced him to the other side of the underground world.
.He also particularly enjoys this double taboo.
Therefore, with Mrs. Charlotte's gentle words of comfort and thoughtfulness, the messy inner lounge quietly closed the soundproof door; and it once again transformed into another form of confrontation battlefield.
...until the heavy mahogany door was knocked hard again.
Prince Kongté, who was disturbed from his good business, also opened the door with his shirt half open and asked angrily: "Damn it, didn't I say, don't let anyone disturb you?". However, he was full of anger.
The words of the head guard who looked worried made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar on the spot.
"Your Majesty, for some reason, the gate to the west of the city suddenly disappeared completely in the middle of the night. The southern rebels have already rushed into the city..."
