Chapter 1441 Chapter 1442: Raising a useless noble
Archbishop Carneiro of the main city of Saint-Vinlair looked at the evil giants that were constantly being beaten back. There was no joy on his face, because the attacks of these evil giants were getting more and more crazy.
The intensity of this attack far exceeds the endurance limit of the main city of St. Wenler. According to this siege intensity, the city wall will be unable to withstand it in less than a week.
The strong wind howled through the upper floors of the castle, and the windows that were not closed were suddenly blown open by the strong wind. The cold raindrops and the cold wind rushed into the house together. The frightened maid ran to close the window, fearing that she would suffer if she was too late for a second.
Punishment, the owner of the castle is currently in an unstable state of mind, and many servants who are prone to making mistakes at work have been hanged in the past few days.
Just two seconds after the window was closed, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and two figures walked in quickly.
These two figures were both heavily armed, with a cold aura wrapped around them. They had been in the cold wind for so long that the wind and rain outside seemed to have followed them into the room. The moment the door was opened,
The maid even suspected that the window she had just closed had been blown open by the wind.
"Your Majesty the Marquis, Your Majesty the Earl."
"Well, you can quit."
"yes."
The maid left the room respectfully but quickly, and the two figures walked towards the desk and high-backed chairs. One of them, wearing a silver-white magic robe with gold patterns, came to the largest velvet chair and sat down.
He took off his gloves and threw them on the table next to him. The man was the Marquis of Frankfurt.
"Archbishop Carneiro is personally in charge, and the barrier has been temporarily stabilized. Relying on the additional energy supply from the church in the XC area, the St. Venlair shield should be able to last for a while."
The Marquis of Frankfurt looked at Earl Cromwell who followed him into the room.
"The cathedral's priests also went up to the city wall in time, and the soldiers' morale and recuperation problems are being alleviated."
"But those monsters are becoming more and more terrifying." Entering the room with the Marquis of Frankfurt was Cromwell, another minister of the main city of St. Vincent, who was in charge of the defense of the inner city.
He is wearing a dark brown earth element magic robe. This magic robe is already infinitely close to a legend. As long as another magic circuit can be added, it will be fine.
"They lost their organization, but became more ferocious and fearless. If they were on a plain battlefield, this would be a weakness. But at this moment, they have a huge numerical advantage and have created a siege situation, which becomes very dangerous.
.”
The Marquis of Frankfurt was silent for a moment and suddenly asked: "When will Kremter's reinforcements arrive?"
"Within two days, they have been near the Vent Mountains." Earl Cromwell said: "Don't worry, Your Excellency, they will ease the situation."
"I understand, but what I am most worried about now is not St. Vincent." The Marquis of Frankfurt said quickly: "Please inform your legion to allocate half of the manpower and let them set up a defense line along the west bank of the Orinoco River.
Arranged from north to south..."
Earl Cromwell reacted immediately: "Are you worried about those monsters crossing the river?"
"As you said!" The Marquis of Frankfurt nodded slowly and said: "Those monsters have gone crazy, and their actions are no longer logical. When they were still a large army, they would focus on attacking target strongholds, and would give clear orders and prohibitions for their purposes.
, but now they are faintly out of control. Once the wandering monsters cross the river in large numbers and enter the western part of the Guyana plain, the consequences will be disastrous."
"I will arrange it immediately!" Earl Cromwell nodded, then mentioned another matter, and said with a solemn expression: "Your Excellency, I received news that the army of the Republic of Chil in the south sent troops to rescue almost a month ago.
We and they are operating in the southern part of the plain. Due to the lack of information, the intelligence has just arrived and the specific situation is unknown, but it is good news for us."
"The Republic of Chel!" The Marquis of Frankfurt muttered the word in a low voice, then shook his head and said: "It's too far, we have to rely on ourselves first."
Earl Cromwell looked at the Marquis of Frankfurt quietly for a few seconds before speaking: "If we continue with this offensive, within three days, the nobles in the inner city will definitely be shaken again. Now the nobles have divided into two groups.
Those who stick to the city and those who advocate abandoning the city and fleeing are almost equally divided, and their quarrels have even affected the stability of the knights defending the city."
The Marquis of Frankfurt understood what Earl Cromwell meant. The large number of knights on the city wall were not loyal to the Marquis of Frankfurt. The principle that someone else's vassal was not my vassal could be applied conversely to him.
The lord they were loyal to had already begun to plan an escape, so naturally they would not devote themselves to the battle.
In the central plains, the knight profession is higher than other professions, second only to the magician.
Blessed by the church, in addition to mastering fighting spirit and knightly skills, they were born with strong magic resistance and mastered low-level auxiliary magic, and their combat power far exceeded those of the same level.
Therefore, in the central plains, becoming a knight is not much easier than that of a magician, and one's status naturally increases. There is even a tradition in the central countries of conferring knights' territories, which is not found in the outer continent.
The lowest rank in the outer continent's fiefdoms is baron, while in the central countries, it is knight lord.
This kind of knight is somewhat similar to the magic knights created by the United Magic Empire and the Melox Empire.
"Abandon the city, where do you go after abandoning the city?" The Marquis of Frankfurt clenched his fists and said bitterly: "Saint Venerer is the last fortress currently blocking the Guyana plain. Once this place is broken, those monsters can drive straight in.
The land will contaminate the entire western plain! The western plain is a grain-producing land. It is open and undefensible, and the strongest castle cannot compare to a tower in St. Vincent."
"Abandoning this place is equivalent to giving up the entire Soros, no, it is really the entire three principalities in the western part of the Guyana Plain. Even if I agree, the Principality of Kremut will dare to clean up these escaped guys as soon as possible. These guys are really
He was raised crippled by the old Duke, and he has no knowledge at all!"
"As you said, they are all useless."
Earl Cromwell said slowly: "Those who advocate abandoning the city and fleeing may have packed their bags at home and are ready to run away at any time. At that time, they only need to hide their identities and carry the wealth they have accumulated throughout their lives through Krem
You can also be a rich man in the Principality of Europe."
The Marquis of Frankfurt said with a sullen face: "Give the Principality of Kremut the list of nobles preparing to flee. They know what to do."
Earl Cromwell nodded silently.
This is also the only way now. The nobles must not be allowed to flee.
