Chapter 405 A little green on the head

When dozens of Gervais' men, fully armed, approached the castle, the defenders on the castle also knew that the last moment was coming.

The arrows shot down from the city wall became more violent, and stones fell like raindrops.

However, Gervais and others all held large shields and were blessed with fighting spirit, so this method was completely useless to them.

Gervais took the lead in climbing up the ladder, and then climbed up hummingly. To be honest, this was the first time Gervais personally participated in a siege battle.

If he didn't have fighting spirit, he wouldn't have the courage to brave arrow feathers and rolling stones to climb the city...

In addition to arrow feathers and rolling stones, the defenders on the castle actually prepared pots of boiling dung juice. Fortunately, Gervais had already prepared it and had already ordered Iclauri and more than 20 people to hold muskets.

Take aim, and shoot to death whenever you see someone trying to splash gold juice on you.

That's why Gervais and the others didn't have something disgusting and as damaging as a biological weapon spilled on their heads, otherwise they wouldn't be able to protect themselves even if they were wearing full body armor.

Without any obstruction, the eighty-nine-meter city wall only takes three to five seconds for knights like Gervais, and soon Gervais climbed to the gap in the city wall.

Climbing up with him was Bertram, the Silver Knight.

The two men raised their shields and looked toward the inside of the castle. Another flurry of arrows came, but they were immediately blocked by the two men with their long swords.

The gap inside the city wall is different from that outside. The outside is eight or nine meters from the ground, while the inside is only five or six meters from the ground. Gervais and Bertram looked at each other, then used their fighting spirit to jump off the city wall without hesitation, heading towards

It fell into the forecourt of the castle.

"Put down your weapons! Surrender without killing!"

As soon as Gervais landed, he saw a man also wearing full body armor rushing out from the front, with seven or eight fully armed guards behind him.

"If you want me, Babette, to surrender, you are just dreaming!"

A young man's voice came from the armor on the opposite side. The man sneered at Gervais's persuasion to surrender, and rushed towards Gervais and the two of them while waving his long sword.

"Baron Bertram, stay alive!"

When Gervais saw this guy named Babette approaching menacingly, instead of being anxious, he reminded Bertram again.

"Viscount Gervais, don't worry!"

Gervais stopped talking and immediately met Babette who was rushing towards him.

"kill!"

Babette shouted loudly and slashed at Gervais with his sword.

when!

Unfortunately, the difference in strength between the two was too great. Gervaise's long sword only used seven points of force to strike, and Babette's long sword was knocked away.

After knocking away Babette's long sword, Gervais continued to move forward. The hilt of the sword hit Babette's helmet hard, and then kicked him to the ground when he was dizzy.

After Babette fell to the ground, Gervais stepped on Babette's chest, lowered his head and asked.

"Can you surrender now?"

Gervais had already seen Babette's strength with his perception turned on. He was just a low-level bronze knight, so Gervais calmly told Bertram not to kill anyone.

Because if you kill one person, you will have one less prisoner.

"Everyone, stop now, look who's in my hands now!"

Gervais grabbed Babette who was trampled under his feet, then lifted his helmet off and shouted loudly at everyone in the castle.

Hearing Gervais's roar, whether it was on the city wall or the castle defenders not far away who were preparing to come for support, they all stopped when they saw the person Gervais was holding.

actions inside.

"Don't listen to him, keep fighting for me! Even if I die, my father will avenge me!"

"Oh, you're quite brave!"

The man captured by Gervais was about the same age as him and should be the son of the owner of the castle. Gervais really admired him for being so tough.

However, appreciation is appreciation. In order to reduce trouble, Gervais still had to teach him a lesson.

Snapped!

Gervais raised the sword spine and slapped Babette directly on the mouth. His mouth was covered in blood instantly, and then he put the sword on Babette's neck.

"Now I give you the last chance to make a choice. Should I kill him first, or should you surrender now?"

"Sir, please be merciful! Please be merciful!"

At this moment, the inner gate of the castle was opened, and a man who looked like a butler walked out of it. The man ran over anxiously and shouted for mercy to Gervais.

"Sir, noble prisoners have the right to preferential treatment! Please be merciful, and my lord will definitely pay a commensurate ransom for the young master!"

This middle-aged man was obviously an experienced castle steward. He did not tremble in front of Gervais and the others. Although he was a little nervous, his words were still clear and coherent.

"Are you the castle steward here?"

At this moment, more than a dozen minor nobles had climbed up behind Gervais, and the defenders in the castle had also stopped resisting.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the little nobles scattered around the castle to control the enemies in the castle.

"Back to your lord, I am the castle steward of Kalundborg, serving my master, Baron Bob Kallen. The man you have in your hands is my master's son, so I hope you will be merciful. Master, he will also

I'm so young, I don't understand these things!"

"It's easy to talk! It's easy to talk! Butler, take us into the castle first and sit down!"

Now that the castle's arrow tower and city walls have been controlled, and the castle gate is slowly being opened, the Baron's Castle has finally fallen into the hands of Gervais and others.

So Gervais was not in a hurry and asked the castle steward to lead the way, preparing to go to the inner castle to take a look first.

In this world ruled by nobles, as long as there is no deep hatred, nobles will basically not kill each other. Therefore, this castle butler represents his master's surrender, and then Gervais and others can easily plunder.

As for the young man in their hands, Gervais and the others can take him back and wait for his father to redeem him with a ransom later.

If no one is willing to pay the ransom for him, it will be up to Gervais and the others to decide whether to kill him or stay as serfs.



"Your Highness, the Jones family has captured the castle!"

In the Great Prince's meeting hall, although it was already early in the morning, the lights were still bright.

Because the eldest prince had just received a report that the castle had been breached, he immediately got up and sent people to summon the people of the Charles family.

After one incident after another, the eldest prince now hates Gervais so much that his hatred is even comparable to that of the Charles family.

The Charles family has a dead heir, and the eldest prince feels a little green on his head, plus Gervais has failed him again and again.

"I got it, go down!"

The eldest prince coldly dismissed the soldiers who came to report the news.

"Unexpectedly, instead of harming the Jones family, this time it actually allowed them to take advantage."

"What exactly is Count Nemio's plan this time? Can you tell me now?"

"If that pretty boy Gervais is allowed to continue like this, his reputation in the principality will become more and more famous, and it will not be so easy for you to deal with him."

The eldest prince looked at several vassals of the Charles family.

Nemio actually said hello to him before setting off this time, hoping to make things easier for the Jones family.

Of course the eldest prince is willing to do this, and he also wants to get rid of Gervase very much. Since Count Nemio is eager to take action, the eldest prince is also happy and relaxed.

With this attack arrangement, the eldest prince originally just wanted to collect some interest to vent his anger. Unexpectedly, not only did it not trouble the Jones family, it actually allowed them to gain their first military exploits.

Although the Jones family's loot does not need to be turned over, it is just an additional reward.

However, the military exploits will still be recorded, and after the Southern Expedition is over, there will be other rewards based on military exploits.

Therefore, the eldest prince could no longer sit still. As long as Gervais appeared in front of him alive for a day, he would have trouble sleeping and eating.
