Chapter 422 [Silent]

Adrick's heart was like a fire, and he drove along the way with the two hundred riders who had just been gathered up, heading towards the Wellington Gate. Along the way, the area where Wellington Gate is located is in the slums of Osgillia, and the streets are quite quiet.

Although the Arc de Triomphe has been fighting fiercely, after half a year of siege, the people in Osgilia have long been accustomed to this kind of day and night war drums roaring.

The city's inflicted chaos everywhere was mostly gathered in areas where the powerful lived. The war had not yet spread to the slums.

Adrick galloped wildly along the way with two hundred cavalrymen, and encountered more than twenty cavalry patrols along the way. Adrick also gathered himself under his command. He heard the horse's hooves and the hooves were hitting hard and cold. The cavalry rushed past the street with a whistling wind. On both sides of the street, many windows poked their heads to watch the street. Although they had been fighting for more than half a year, there were few troops in the slums.

Adrick galloped all the way and was at the forefront of the team. He held a saber in his hand and squeezed his legs against the horse's belly. He just kept praying in his heart, hoping that the Wellington Gate had not yet fallen.

Although the more than 200 cavalry had already been plucked up by Adrick, most of them were civilian officers, and many young civilian staff members, and even rookies who were temporarily transferred from the military academy after the outbreak of the war. Many of them had not even received complete military training. Although they were not lacking in courage, after all, after riding for so long, the team gradually became a little scattered. Many people were not good at riding skills and had gradually fallen behind the team. Seeing that the cavalry team's queue was getting longer and longer...

Adrick was a general who was born in a cavalry army. The former commander of the Rodria cavalry was even the first-class cavalry elite in the empire. How could he not understand in his heart at this moment? If the Wellington Gate was really lost, it would be easier to rely on his two hundred scattered mobs to save the situation?

He ran all the way, and just as he ran through another street intersection, he suddenly shouted loudly and tied the reins hard. He rode well, and the war horse under his crotch was a good horse. He immediately stood up. Adrick stopped the horse and turned his head and shouted, "Everyone has it, line up!"

With his order, the quickest reaction was naturally the personal guards who followed him. These personal guards were all elite soldiers in a hundred battles. They immediately stopped on the street with easy control of horses. The civilians behind them ran in a very embarrassed manner, and some even landed hundreds of meters away.

Adrick's face was as gloomy as water. He looked at the surrounding environment, took a deep breath, and said to a captain of the guard beside him. "You stay here and gather the people who fell behind! I will take the cavalry to Wellington Gate first, you can arrange it here quickly! Then come! If you see a fire in the Wellington Gate, you will immediately take the people and don't have to continue moving forward. You will clean the streets on the spot, demolish all the nearby carriages and houses, and block the street intersection! If I bring people to retreat, you will be our first line of defense to resist those rebels! Do you understand!"

The captain of the personal guards followed him for many years of military career, with rich experience, and immediately took the order without hesitation.

Adrick looked in the direction of Wellington City Gate ahead and took a breath: "I hope the gods will bless you, guards, patrols, follow me!"

As Adrick continued to move forward, only his dozens of personal guards and more than twenty patrol patrols gathered, were considered qualified cavalry soldiers.

Adrick followed less than a hundred horses and continued to rush towards the Wellington Gate.

Unfortunately, the god seemed to have not heard Adrick's prayer. He ran for a while and saw the Wellington Gate when he turned around another street to see the Wellington Gate. Suddenly, Adrick saw a fire in front of him, and a raging fire had risen from the Wellington Gate!

From afar, there were sounds of shouting and killing, and from time to time, I could hear screams and screams!

Adrick immediately waved his saber into the air and shouted, "Come with me!"

The horse's hooves were fast, and after turning a street intersection, the Wellington City Gate was already in front of you!!

At this moment, there were already a large fire above and below the ancient city gate!

The city tower was in a mess. The gate of Wellington City Gate was not cast with fine iron like the Arc de Triomphe, but was made of thick hardwood, covered with iron sheets and iron nails. At this moment, it had turned into a huge ball of fire in a blazing flame.

The defenders at the city gate had been killed and ran around in scattered.

After hundreds of elite elite attacks led by Hughes, who were disguised as guards, attacked the guards at a rapid speed, the defenders resisted for a while and then collapsed.

Hughes's men were all elite soldiers selected from hundreds of thousands of rebels, while the defenders at Wellington Gate were mostly archers, which were one level behind the quality of individual soldiers. During the sneak attack at night, Hughes promised a heavy reward, and with his rare lead, everyone was brave enough to be brave.

When Adrick arrived with the cavalry, most of the defenders under the city gate had been killed, and only half were left to resist barely, but they were forced to the corner by the rebels. The battle above the city gate was particularly fierce. The rebels tried to attack the city tower along the female wall, but the defenders on the city tower still resisted step by step, occupying the steps of the city, blocking the bodies of the dead comrades on the steps as fortifications, and the archers hid behind and shot arrows.

The fire was burning, and the door panel of the city gate was already burning to a shaky point, dozens of elite soldiers among the rebels had already smashed a huge hole in the city gate with their hammers.

Adrick rushed to the street and shouted: "Cabinets move forward! Kill the enemy!!!"

Hughes risked his life to raid, and 70% of the Wellington Gate had already captured. Seeing that victory was in sight, even the fire rose. His plan tonight was tight. After the hillside outside the Wellington Gate, thousands of elite cavalrymen who had been ambushed were waiting for the battle. Just wait for the fire in the city gate to catch the city tower and open the city gate, and the large groups of cavalry outside the city could drive in!

Seeing that he had almost succeeded, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from a distance. Hughes's face darkened and he cursed: "Damn it, it's so fast!"

He immediately raised his sword, pointed at the street, shouted, "Stop them! Block them!! Take the city gate and we will win!"

Although he fought himself, he had no special status, so he naturally had dozens of elite guards around him. At this moment, the situation was urgent. Hughes actually pushed a guard away and said angrily: "What are you doing to protect me! Do you have no weapons? Go to the street intersection and stop them! You must stop those cavalrymen!!"

Dozens of elite guards immediately rushed towards the street entrance. At this moment, Adrick had arrived with his cavalry. Both sides were full of morale and rushed together!

Adrick charged forward and rushed into the crowd. He jumped high and flew over the head of a rebel. The Adricks were on the horse, and they were lying on their horses, with a sword in their hand, and a bloody light. Suddenly, the head of a rebel rose into the sky! Before the horse's hooves fell to the ground, he turned around and cut the rebels into two halves from their shoulders. Blood spurted him, and Adrick had already shouted loudly: "Kill! Kill these bastards!!"

The cavalry behind him immediately rushed into the battle group!

The two sides fought fiercely. Although Adrick brought elite troops, the number of people was at a disadvantage. Once the cavalry rushed into the battle group, they could no longer rush. Many cavalry simply jumped off the horse and fought with swords.

Hughes's people were about to be washed away, and Hughes's eyes were red! He had already bet on everything tonight. If he failed, he would naturally not have to talk about his future ambitions. Even if he was afraid he would die in this city! He had already roared, held the sword and pounced on him. After trying hard to poke a cavalry off his horse, his face was covered in blood and his face was ferocious: "Life and death are at this moment!"

He tried so hard that the elite gathered around Hughes and blocked his mouth tightly under the city gate. Adrick and his people shouted and fought hard, but after three rushes, they could not drive these guys away. Adrick had already seen Hughes shouting with swords in the crowd. He naturally recognized Hughes. When he saw Hughes being here, Adrick felt even more anxious!

Even this guy who has always been self-reliant is willing to take such a risk to attack the city. It seems that the rebels are bound tonight!

Adrick was anxious. The light of fighting spirit had burst out from the blade in his hand. The people on both sides were crowded together. Seeing the light of fighting spirit flashing, blood spraying was constantly appearing around. Adrick had cut seven or eight rebels under his knife. His long sword had also rolled the blade, but these rebels were extremely elite. They were obviously not ordinary soldiers. Adrick even saw many enemy weapons flashing the light of fighting spirit! Adrick had tried his best, and even charged forward. His subordinates were all elite soldiers, but after rushing several times in a row, these rebels seemed to have firm will, forming a tight array to block the front, and rushed to the city gate no matter how hard they were!

Seeing the shouts of killing on the city tower gradually weakened, it was obvious that the remaining defenders on the city tower had been almost exhausted, Adrick already knew that something was wrong...

At this moment, suddenly, a rapid and low whimpering sound came from outside the city gate, and then in the darkness of the night, the sound of horse hooves like thunder rolled in the distance!

Adrick's face was even more ugly!

There were less than a hundred cavalry soldiers around him. The two sides fought so fiercely that at this moment, there were only less than forty people left by his side. Under the city gate, there were corpses everywhere. The two sides were entangled together fiercely. Every second, they could hear the terrifying sound of the blade slashing into the flesh and blood.

Finally, the city gate made a loud noise, and it was obvious that the cavalry outside the city had rushed to the city!

There are not many defenders left on the city tower. They have to deal with the rebels who are rushing to the city on the steps and have to spend their energy to shoot the siege rebels outside the city. Their power is too weak.

Adrick was getting more and more anxious, almost vomiting blood. He slashed hard on a rebel soldier in front of him. The blade directly cut through the opponent's armor and cut it hard from his shoulders. Under the cracked armor, blood and flesh splattered. Adrick kicked the guy away, but another sword next to him had stabbed into his waist!!

Adrick snorted in pain, turned his head, and saw a rebel who had already kneeled on the ground, covered in blood, but was holding the hilt of sword in his hand, and used his last trace of strength to try to press the sword stabbed on him deeper. Adrick roared, and the blade rolled over, and with a stuttering sound, slashing the guy on the ground into two pieces directly from his chest!

The sword was so powerful that the upper half of the rebels had already flew out, but Adrick immediately felt a shortness of breath. The sword on his waist had stabbed in one third. He shook his body and took two steps back. The two rebels in front of him saw the advantage and rushed forward one after another. Adrick waved his sword and blocked the two swords. After blocking the two swords, he was stabbed in his chest again. Fortunately, as a senior general, the armor on his body was naturally the most exquisite specially made Empire Hill armor. The opponent's sword stabbed him on his breastplate and did not break out, but the huge impact force knocked Adrick backwards.

He staggered back, and there were already guards beside him. A guard tried his best to block a sword for him and retreated hard to the back. Adrick couldn't stand, and only felt the pain in his waist made his eyes turn black.

Both sides had their eyes red in battle. There were less than twenty people around Adrick, and the rebels fell all over the ground. Adrick still refused to give in and shouted to fight hard. He rushed up several times, but the rebels were firmly guarding the city gate.

finally……

I heard a loud bang! The city gate panel burning with raging flames finally collapsed with a loud bang!

The large area of ​​the city gate fell directly from under the door, and even pressed several rebels under the city gate directly under the fire group. However, they heard other rebels cheering loudly at the same time!

Outside the city gate, the bridge was already filled with black rebel cavalry! The cavalry was like a forest and the iron armor was like a wall!

"Sir, the city is broken! Retreat quickly!"

A guard pulled Adrick, who was still trying to rush up, and Adrick shook his head. Under the city gate in front, the rebel cavalry had already rushed in and rushed in. Under the city gate, five or six fell down by the trampled cavalrymen at the city gate.

Adrick's heart was bleeding. These people were all elite guards who had followed him for many years. They were almost completely injured tonight!

At this moment, more than ten people were still standing in front and gathering together. The people behind him dragged Adrick and retreated frantically.

"General, please go! Organize people to take back the city!"

Adrick finally screamed, and the guards beside him grabbed a horse from behind and pushed Adrick up.

The rebel cavalry brigade behind him had already reached the front, and several guards fought to the death to block it. With loud shouts, black cavalry surged up, and many cavalry guns were accumulated on them.

There were only two guards left by Adrick. They boarded their horses and dragged Adrick's horse reins and retreated to the street corner.

The Adricks were on the horse, their hearts were as if they were shattered, and the brigade of rebel cavalry behind them cheered like a wave of horse hooves. I don’t know how many cavalry rushed in...

"Sir, this is not the time to die! Only by organizing manpower can we retake the city!"

His personal guard beside him yelled loudly, Adrick finally cheered up and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Go back! General Span must have organized people to come up. We will hurry up and join the brigade and drive them out no matter how hard the rebels are to gain a foothold!"

Under the city gate, when his cavalry brigade rushed in like a tide, Hughes felt that all his strength suddenly disappeared. He stood there, his body softened and sat on the ground.

He has always boasted of his noble demeanor, and tonight he personally went to fight to kill, but it was almost the first time in his life. He just raised all his courage in a desperate situation. At this moment, once the crisis was relieved, he suddenly felt that the sword in his hand was as heavy as a thousand pounds! At this moment, Hughes did not have the usual demeanor, his body was covered in blood, and he didn't know whether it was himself or someone else's. The high-quality sword in his hand was already full of gaps, his hair was scattered, and his face was covered with blood.

The guards beside him dragged him to the side and gave way to the cavalry.

I only saw the cavalry around me rushing in like a tide, and the horse's hooves hit the hard and cold ground. At this moment, Hughes felt that no matter how beautiful the music he had heard in his life was, it was far less than the movement of these cavalry's hooves at this moment.

"Hahahaha! We won! We won!!" Hughes suddenly burst into laughter wildly.

The cavalry entering the city were all his Armenian cavalry. The cavalry commander who had already entered the city had quickly found Hughes. Although Hughes was sitting on the ground with blood loss, he was still laughing wildly. Obviously, he was very in good spirits. The cavalry commander finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Hughes had any accident, their Armenian troops would have become homeless.

"Sir! Governor!" Several cavalry officers rushed to Hughes and jumped off their horses.

Hughes stood up with the support of the guards, looked at the black cavalry entering the city, and felt full of energy and laughed loudly: "Very good! Very good! This Osgilia is ours!!!"

Someone around him immediately said, "Sir, should we let our streets go immediately? The group of people just now seemed to be a guy of a very high level! If they could catch that person, it would be a great achievement..."

"The level is very high? Hahahaha! That's Adrick!" Hughes laughed wildly: "I recognize that scar face! Hahahahaha!"

Who in the empire knows Adrick's reputation? When he heard that the imperial general who was almost dead in his hands was actually the famous Adrick, these rebels immediately started to pick up: "Sir! Let's chase him now! We will definitely capture Adrick alive in front of you..."

"Shut up!"

Hughes stepped back and helped him, took a deep breath, and looked at the cavalry generals in front of him: "Don't rush to kill, gather our people, and let the big troops enter the city! We suddenly break the city, the most important thing is to gain a foothold first! As long as we stand firm, this Osgilia will naturally be ours! Adrick? He is always in the city, and he is afraid that he will run away! Hahaha! Hurry up! Gather your troops! The big troops outside are coming in soon! I will stand in the palace at dawn!"

After a pause, he shouted: "Send a team of people to chase after the street where Adrick retreated first! Adrick has fought a lifelong battle. Since he can react so quickly to rescue Wellington City, he must have prepared along the way! Send a team of people to chase him! If you don't want to survive, you will be able to catch him, as long as you chase him, you will not give him time to organize people to resist!"

A cavalry officer was overjoyed. What a great achievement if he could catch the famous Adrick? He immediately turned around and shouted, and hurriedly chased the streets with a team of cavalry.

Adrick only had three remaining cavalry retreated. When he retreated to the intersection where the troops were divided, he saw that the people he left had gathered the team and more than a hundred cavalry were already at the intersection.

On the road, some carriages that were requisitioned were temporarily overturned and blocked the intersection.

Adrick's three riders rushed to the front, and immediately someone came up to pick him up and led the three riders into the street intersection.

Adrick was covered in blood and injured. His tragic appearance made everyone who stayed here change their color. These *** were civil servants who had never fought wars. Seeing that this famous general of the empire was defeated so miserably, many people were worried.

Adrick turned over and dismounted, pushed away the officer next to him who was trying to support him, and shouted, "I'm not dead yet! What are you afraid of!"

Although he was very injured, he understood that as the commander-in-chief, if he showed any decline at this moment, he would be afraid that the morale of the army would immediately disperse.

So although his eyes were so painful that they turned black, he still cheered up and made a loud call.

He quickly assigned people to the street, and divided some people to the street, on both sides of the houses and buildings, and the rest hid behind the blocked street.
To be continued...
