The rock fort, in the city, one team of armor bright knights and soldiers are dressing ranks pass through the broad cities street, sky over this team, the Holy Spirit Plain Pompeii Earl flag flutters in the midair, on flag golden red embroidery under sunlight flood striking brilliance, is magnificent and lordly.
Maryland Knight stands in the city wall in city, overlooks that army to line up in formation the appearance of advance, long time, in a soft voice said: „Perhaps this was the last batch that we can count on aids.”
„Always does not compare,” stands in Maryland Knight Carroll Viscount sinking sound said, „Pompeii Earl is knows eventually, once this fort were broken through then means anything.”
The team of entering a city is not that knight brigade that royal family sends, but is the Pompeii Earl private army, the appearance of this army, means that Sir Earl the news that from spread recently unceasingly felt finally the urgency of situation, has made the resolution.
The rock fort is located in the edge in Pompeii Earl territory, from name, the fort land is the Pompeii Family, but in fact this fort by the royal family positive governing, in the serviceman including fort also all directly gives loyalty to King, the fort peripheral also has own village, mine and mill, Pompeii Earl any has not provided for or the duty of support to this fort, but is very obvious, that Earl is very clear, once the fort were hit by Cecil Family, his territory will be in imminent danger.
„Ancestor does not follow regulations or system handed down by the royal ancestors” the news already spread in the southern aristocrat who wanting Cery sought asylum through these, Pompeii Earl does not dare guarantee after the Cecil army overcame the rock fort, will stop the footsteps, does not dare guarantee that overcame the Cecil army of fort to be able first in peripheral wantonly to grab, to make up the war to lose--, although at the beginning, he as if believes that the Cecil person did not have the means with the rock fort, therefore quite some meanings of having no more worries, but in one of the Maryland Knight diligently, he eventually sent out oneself army to support here, but this only team, was the only reinforcements that Maryland Knight can draw..
„These can display many battle efficiencies in the Lord soldier who Holy Spirit Plain has a high and respected position completely are an unknown,” Maryland Knight sighed, „such that but such as you said that always did not compare-- these people at least can operate the trebuchet, or hid behind the wall launches the bow and arrow.”
Carroll Viscount hesitant, finally has not borne ask: „What recent news did the south recently have?”
„I have sent three groups of scouts, camouflages the merchant and hunting household, only then a group of people come back,” Maryland Knight surface sinks the water saying that „the present can only determine the Cecil person is dispatching troops toward here, but the south situation cannot inquire completely......”
„They have not really given up......” in Carroll Viscount heart sinking, „they will sooner or later come.”
Looks at present a face grey defeat, even is leading faint trace frightened look Carroll Viscount, Maryland Knight can only sigh in the heart reluctantly secretly.
He has certainly the big confidence to the fort that oneself guard, in the southern aristocrat mouth that although he seeks asylum from these heard the fearful story about Cecil army, he also has confidence to oneself fort-- in his opinion, these southern aristocrats were really scared, the terrifying impression of enemy already infinite enlargement in their hearts, Maryland Knight has experienced many battlefield people, he quite knew about the person of this scared out of one's wits, after the filtration falls in these aristocrat words these exaggerating ingredient, he by the Cecil army is given to daunt.
But this does not mean that he will treat it lightly to the threat that will soon face.
The Cecil person not describes like the south aristocrats „just like deity”, but also absolutely is not the strength that can despise, facing the threatening Cecil army, the rock fort will certainly experience one to struggle hard, according to the deduction of Maryland Knight, Cecil person „day fire explodes” in a short time should unable to break through magic barrier of fort, but the garrison troops of fort do not have any means to repel these to be able in the Cecil person who the remote distance launches the continual magic attack.
This fight should evolve a time consuming attack, or with a more depressing view-- is the Cecil person must force in bombing of president time to the rock unilaterally, but the garrison troops of rock fort will be hard to attack on own initiative.
Maryland Knight does not fear to lasting difficult fight, he is truly anxious, is aspect that the present rock fort is isolated and cuts off from help, is this country the situation of constantly worsening.
So long as a situation day of this worsening has not changed for the better, how long no matter that the rock fort can insist, finally must unable to insist.
He has patted the shoulder of Carroll Viscount: „Goes back, we need to relax, drink two glasses of liquor to alleviate our nerve.”
They left the city wall, went to the hall in fort castle area.
Just opened the door of hall, Maryland Knight then saw that Oland Viscount of wear loose sleeping robe was carrying one glass of wines to stand in the business hall, the bleary eyes in the maidservant with hall shoots the breeze dimly, but Kang Sike Viscount that in side not far away was walked back and forth, on the latter face full was anxious, moreover judged from the complexion, he drank perhaps also many.
„! Knight! Friend of mine Carroll Viscount,” Oland saw pushes person who the gate comes, immediately holds up the wine glass to say loud, „salutes to you-- you should taste this.”
„Oland, you drank,” Carroll knits the brows slightly, looks at this in the recent several days even more manner improper person, in the tone quite somewhat has no alternative, „how, moreover did you wear the sleeping robe in the hall?”
„This is in a castle, in castle any place can wear the sleeping robe......” Oland to smile, „felt relieved, my sober very......”
Kang Sike Viscount walked, bypasses already a little consciousness unclear Oland directly, in his eye proliferates the anxious look, long time the hyperemia that drinks wine to cause excessively: „Knight, has southern......”
Maryland Knight did not wait for the opposite party saying that then beckoned with the hand: „Does not have the good news.”
Carroll Viscount looks disappointedly present two friends-- abandons oneself to Bohemianism, depressed low, aristocrat calm and dignified has almost vanished from them.
Not only these two friends, which flee from calamity to wanting Cery's other aristocrats from the south together almost each one very to go.
These Viscount and barons gather in the banquet hall, or drills in city the bar and brothel, spends freely wealth that on each one is only remaining, is consuming the good for nothing energy, eats and drinks extravagantly to indulge in dissipation, almost cannot see an intention hope the meaning.
Thinks of here, he then cannot help but raised the head, seeks for somebody in the hall, quick, the Roupe Glen female Viscount that slightly a little thin form then appears in his line of sight.
Female Viscount is only calmly sits in a corner, was talking with an own knight in a low voice anything, although on her face has the faint anxiety similarly, but that calm appearance was really and others is entirely different.
Long time, such situation also falls in the Maryland Knight eyes, this senior knight looks in the hall the situations of other aristocrats, could not bear shake the head muttered one in a low voice: „Might as well a widow......”
Heard muttering of Knight in nearby Carroll Viscount, has not actually heard clearly, but he just wants to ask, saw the gate of hall was shoved open again.
Puts on the knight of armor to run in the hall hurriedly, the impact noise of steel boots and ground reverberates all of a sudden in the hall, nearby person is in abundance peaceful, and has the surprised uncertain vision to look knight who this runs suddenly.
„General! General!” Knights called out loud while runs up to front of Maryland Knight, „city external a person of small batch of fleeing from calamity-- they say from the Glen area!”
Glen area?
The southern aristocrats in hall looked immediately subconsciously to sat Roupe Glen female Viscount in corner, but in their lines of sight, that female Viscount also all of a sudden raised the head, looks to stand with the astonished look in Maryland Knight front knight.
Maryland Knight watches this, afterward turns the head to look to the knight of notifying: „Where are they at?”
„In the outer wall following barracks,” knight replied, „we have not made them enter a city--, moreover one team of soldiers look.”
Maryland Knight slightly cannot look up nodded: This is the necessary discretion.
The Cecil person has blockaded the southern area obviously, at least in the rock fort to the Southern Region middle intermediate area, everywhere is the blockade lines that the Cecil person arranges, wants Cery to send the experienced scouts who unable to break through this blockade line, at this kind of time also the person who can run away from the southern area...... No matter how looked that is very suspicious.
„Leads them to main hall,” Maryland Knight makes the decision quickly, and turned head to look in the hall already southern aristocrats eyes that gathered gradually, „woman gentlemen, I invited everyone to go-- perhaps we can obtain the southern explicit news finally.”
Quick, Maryland knights and southern aristocrats then went to the main hall in castle area, shortly after they enter the hall and takes a seat in the stage, a squad soldier then leads the person who several, are scarred in rags to walk.
That several people underwent a tribulation obviously, their clothing is tattered, the whole body sully, the cut and bruised, distressed stance made the southern aristocrats unable to bear remember itself in some time ago appearance, Maryland Knight also secretly sighed, afterward made noise to ask: „Who are you? Do you lead from Glen?”
That several person in rags mostly is having the terrified tense appearance, only the person stands in the center is maintaining calm, that is the big middle-aged man, he as if has not heard the words of Maryland Knight still to rotate the head, seems looking for any person in the hall, finally his line of sight fell on the body of Roupe Glen female Viscount, this middle-aged person turns toward female Viscount to bow immediately, in the sound was bringing sobbing: „Mistress, I finally saw you!”
Roupe Glen has also recognized the present person, she stands from oneself seat, is having the incredible tone: „This is my steward!”
„Madame, did you determine?” Maryland Knight somewhat suspected that looked at that in rags, over the face sully middle-aged person, „is really he your steward?”
„I can certainly determine,” Roupe Glen responds immediately, she is taking a fast look around everyone, „I have not drunk liquor!”
„Good, I understood,” Maryland Knight nods, looks to standing in the stair following middle-aged man, „steward mister, can you bring the southern news?!”
„They came! The mistresses, Sirs, the Cecil person came!” The stewards have the painful appearance, in the tone to be full of said frightened, „they have seized the Glen castle, but also has seized Kang Sike, the Carroll area, they must come toward here!”
