The sun cruelly plundered the remaining water from the bodies of the defenders. Looking at the buckets of water placed under the city, the defenders on the city couldn't help but fantasize about the pleasure of drinking the cool river water.
It is not difficult to obtain this water. The rows of ladders erected on the city are the roads paved by Ella for them.
Not everyone can get drinking water from various places like Daxter. Most of them have reached the limit of their patience. The reason why they insist on not surrendering is that their leader has not spoken, and they dare not
Acting without authorization; secondly, because the opposite side is a notorious pirate, and they may lose everything once they surrender.
Ella watched from a distance with a serious expression. If the defenders were still not ready to surrender, then she could only order a storm. Although the water was cut off for so many days, the morale of the defenders in Azov City dropped sharply. But in Azov City
Under the protection of the city wall and Anna's bow and arrow, the winning rate is still not optimistic. But time no longer allows her to wait any longer.
Her troops are ready for a fight to the death
"I don't care, even if I die, I don't want to die of thirst here!"
Suddenly a mercenary shouted on the city wall, climbed out of the wall, and climbed down the ladder.
Upon seeing this, a mercenary leader grabbed a crossbow on the spot and shot an arrow while the mercenary was running towards the pirate kingdom army. The mercenary screamed and threw himself to the ground, with blood pouring out from under his body.
The behavior of these two people caused a commotion among the soldiers guarding the city. A man wearing a red hat walked separately to the mercenary leader who was shooting the arrow, and asked with all his face: "Franz! Why did you shoot?"
Kill our Red Hoods?"
The man named Franz snorted coldly: "'Red Riding Hood' Merigo, you can't manage your men, I can only manage them for you. If you let your men escape, the morale of the army is chaotic, and if you surrender, the Pirate Kingdom will
Turn us all into slaves!"
'Red Riding Hood' Merigo laughed, turned to look at the mercenaries behind her, and said loudly: "Did you all hear it? As expected of a man who has water to drink, he speaks with toughness!"
Franz's voice was filled with anger: Red Riding Hood, what do you mean?"
Merigo looked at Franz coldly: "Everyone knows that the bucket of water was snatched away by your great army! At that time, you asked your men to injure several of us, and we haven't settled the battle yet!"
"It's not that big of a bucket! Why are you so fussy about it?"
"Then what if you robbed us of the berries we bought at the market?"
"What do you call your berries? Did you pay for them? No, right? Your men are slow, do you blame me?"
Franz and Merigo stared at each other on the city wall. Almost at the same time, they raised their swords and pointed at each other.
"Franz, I will quench my thirst with your blood tonight!"
"Become a slave in the Pirate Kingdom, and they will quench your thirst with urine!"
The Great Corps led by Franz and the Red Hat Corps led by Merigo are the two largest mercenary groups in Azov City. They usually dislike each other in the city. After the water supply in Azov City was cut off, frictions continued.
, and under Aila's instigation, the conflict between the two mercenary groups finally broke out.
The leaders of the two mercenary groups fought each other on the city wall. Seeing this, the mercenaries of the two mercenary groups stepped forward to join the battle. The two mercenary groups seized a lot of water resources during the water shortage, and many small
The mercenary groups were all resentful towards them. Seeing the two mercenary groups fighting, they also picked up their weapons and rushed forward. For a moment, there was chaos on the city wall.
Daxter and Anna stayed on the guard tower specially prepared for them. The chaos on the city wall made them stunned. Anna glanced at the troops of the Pirate Kingdom - except for the few water sellers, their large troops were placed on
It is extremely far away from the city wall and it is impossible to launch an attack on the city wall in a short time. But it is precisely because of this that the defenders of Azov City are more likely to have internal conflicts.
"I haven't seen how strong this Ragnar Lodbrok is. He plays tricks like this and plays tricks one after another."
Anna angrily threw away the bow in her hand. If the enemy didn't attack, her bow skills would be useless.
Several members of the Ligurian Republic hurried to the city wall, trying to prevent the conflict between the mercenary groups.
"Everyone, everyone! Stop it! The troops of the Pirate Kingdom are watching from under the city wall!" They held Franz and Merigo's hands and said, "If you make trouble like this, the Republic will not dare to hire you next time.
Got it!"
"You came just in time!" Merigo raised her hand and knocked a council member to the ground. "Where's the water? Give us the water right away!"
"The whole city has been without water for seven days. There is no water now! But reinforcements from the Republic will arrive soon..."
"We are mercenaries! We always sell our lives for a few days according to the commission!"
Another congressman quickly took out a money bag and handed it to Merigo: "We have the commission, we will give it..."
Meligo waved her hand and slapped the congressman: "Go away! You can't even provide water, so why are you talking about commission? If you still can't get water today, don't blame us for defecting!"
Anna looked at all this situation.
"It seems that the city of Azov cannot be defended. But I must not fall into the hands of pirates." She said to Dast, "If pirates enter the city, you have to be smart and grab a horse when you find an opportunity."
escape!"
"Don't worry! I will grab the horse as soon as I find the opportunity..."
"I will grab the horse! I asked you to follow closely, don't fall behind!"
Dast nodded like a woodpecker. Anna was more reliable than anyone else at this time. He couldn't help but want to rush up and kiss her. But that would cause him to be thrown off the tower. So he began to look for praise instead.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a defender running towards them from the south of the city.
"Report! South, south, south there...!"
Almost at the same time, a soldier hurried towards Ella from the shore.
"King of Sweden, it's bad! A medium-sized fleet appeared on the south coast... on the south coast!"
"What did you say?" Ella spurred her horse out. She waved her whip and shouted to the soldiers at the top of her lungs, "Push the boat into the sea! Get ready to meet the enemy! Get ready to meet the enemy!"
…
…
"Looks like we've caught up."
A black-bearded general is leaning on a black cane, standing on the black deck like a black mountain. I am afraid that not even the huge waves on the sea can shake the navy under his command.
His name is Andrea, and he is Marshal of the Navy of the Republic of Liguria.
"Pirate Kingdom, a strange opponent." He said to himself on the deck, "Come on, let me see if their capabilities are worthy of this vast sea."
