The players did not launch an attack immediately, but tried their best to sneak into the prison and lock themselves up. This was also a good thing. At least the guards guarding the Duke of York's castle were not attacked too fiercely by the players.
Those players are busy surrendering all day long, entering the castle, and then becoming a glorious slave warrior and receiving cruel training. Who has time to attack the castle? As for the few people who want to attack the castle,
It is also completely unable to break through the castle's defense, and it is completely impossible to cause any damage to the castle.
Those Victorians who were outside the castle tried their best to enter the castle and surrender. Some even climbed in while it was dark.
Of course, it is impossible to let these people out again. As for killing them, the Duke of York is really reluctant to do so. After all, every Victorian is not afraid of pain and fights bravely. Where can we find such warriors?
These people were immediately imprisoned in prison, and in the past few days, more and more people have come in over the wall, sneaked in from the moat, or even pretended to follow the city gate quietly when it opened. Not yet.
Within a week, the entire castle prison was overcrowded with Victorians.
It is initially estimated that there are about five to six hundred people imprisoned in the prison, and the number is still rising. After all, as more and more players come in, other players also know more about how to sneak into the castle on the forum.
There was even a Victorian who sneaked into the prison while it was dark. Who knows how this Victorian knew where the prison was?
When the prison guards saw the Victorians appearing in the prison early the next morning, they were all shocked.
They repeatedly confirmed whether the newly appeared Victorian had been arrested before, or if someone else had just arrested him. As a result, no one had seen him before, and it was as if he suddenly appeared in prison.
According to the Victorian himself:
"Please, lock me up. I am willing to be your slave. Let me fight. I will have no problem fighting for the rest of my life."
I never thought that such a person would appear in prison, but there was no way to let him out. The prison guards could only lock the Victorian in prison.
After that, more and more Victorians began to appear in prisons. Even in the Duke of York's castle, you could see those Victorians dressed as maids or other various employees.
Look around the castle for guards to catch you.
On the 10th day, more than 1,000 Victorians were imprisoned in the prison. All of those people were crowded into not very large cages. The prison that could only accommodate two to three hundred people was now suddenly full.
Get up. Even the prison guards suggested to the Duke of York that some of the excess Victorians should be cleared away, otherwise it would be too dangerous.
But because of his own dreams and goals, the Duke of York was really reluctant to kill such an outstanding warrior.
There was such a wonderful relationship between the people of the entire Free City of Victoria and the Duke of York. When Queen Victoria learned all this, Lilo frowned and asked the three hamsters next to her.
"What are they doing? Are they betraying Victoria?"
Liluo asked, but the hamster quickly answered:
"No, Master, I think this is one of those people's schemes. You see, thousands of them have sneaked into the Duke of York's castle. As long as we give an order, they can explode the center from within.
"
The eldest hamster just finished speaking, and the second hamster next to him also said: "Yes, I think so too. This is really a very magical strategy, but as long as we can capture the castle, any method is acceptable.
."
The third hamster also said: "Can we start dinner?"
After listening to what the three hamster uncles said, Liluo thought for a while and finally nodded.
"What you said makes sense, so let them continue to sneak into the castle. When necessary, we will capture the castle in one fell swoop,"
Liluo said this to the three hamsters.
As for what these players want to do, Lancelot is not very clear. He has seen players constantly trying to enter the castle in the past few days. He originally thought they were planning to go in and do some damage, but since then
He knew from other players that they were not there to destroy but to surrender.
As a knight, surrender is absolutely not allowed, at least normally, but these Victorians are definitely not normal people. It is absolutely impossible for the Victorians to surrender out of fear, so they surrender, absolutely not out of fear
s reason.
So what are their plans? Are they really planning to explode from the inside?
However, judging from what has been observed in the past few days, it seems that they do not intend to explode internally, but want to follow the Duke of York. If this is really the case, it would be a serious betrayal. He has also reported this matter
He told Queen Victoria Lilo, but Queen Victoria didn't seem to take it seriously, and also told him clearly that the Victorians would never betray themselves, and it was impossible for them to betray themselves.
There must be some secret to restraining them, Lancelot thought. In his memory, whenever Lilo appeared, those rebellious Victorians would become very well-behaved. Not only would they not say a word, but they would not even say a word.
They didn't even walk away, just staring closely at their queen.
Of course, apart from this incident, there were many other things that worried Lancelot, such as the defense of the stronghold. Due to the betrayal of those Victorians, the Duke of York already knew of the existence of the stronghold and sent special personnel to test it.
, confirmed the existence of the stronghold. When the Duke of York discovered this stronghold, he must have immediately thought of taking out this stronghold. Fortunately, Lancelot was very particular about the site selection, and was protected by highlands on all sides.
, there is only one place that can be entered, and the guards cannot easily attack such a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Besides, their numbers were completely inferior to the Victorians. Even if more than 1,000 people were imprisoned by them, there would still be 3,000 people left. They could only simply test it out, then retreat, and then never go back.
Never been here.
Only occasionally did some guards come over to keep an eye on them, just in case they attacked.
Lancelot saw that the Duke's castle seemed to have no ability to launch another attack, but he could not relax at all.
The earls and vassals under the Duke of York must have been rushing here to rescue York, and they may arrive here at some time. If all the earls and barons arrived here, Victoria's people would have no advantage.
Although the battle would not be defeated, Lancelot was still unwilling to do such a thing if the castle that could have been taken easily would start to consume a lot of energy.
He has been telling Queen Victoria to seize the time to launch an attack on the castle in the past few days, but the Queen seems to be in no hurry to do so. She wants to see what these players plan to do.
Lancelot could only fulfill his responsibilities as a subordinate, and he began to let the players make weapons for siege.
Players' daily tasks include more items for making siege weapons, but this doesn't really matter to players, since everything is just a daily task.
The Duke of York has been very happy these days. When he saw so many Victorians besieging his castle, he thought it was over this time and might have to flee his castle. Unexpectedly, the invaders only wanted to surrender.
Not long after, something happened that made the Duke of York even happier. The earls who came to rescue him had already arrived at the outskirts of the duchy.
On the outskirts of the Duke of York's territory, a large number of knights crowded on the plain. A series of tents and servants who were busy cooking were all over the plain.
The noble men are resting in tents. Their responsibilities are only to rule the territory and enjoy life in normal times, and to fight for their lords when war requires it. Fighting is a life-threatening thing, so they can enjoy it normally.
Of course, you have to enjoy it more, which is also the privilege of being a noble.
There were a total of five Earls who came to rescue the Duke of York this time, and the most powerful among them was an Earl named Shaomai, and this Earl of Shaomai was also the leader of the coalition to rescue the Duke of York this time.
Before officially entering the Duke of York's territory and helping the Duke of York, they held a war meeting in the outskirts.
"I believe you all know that we are here to rescue the Duke of York this time, and there are 5,000 people waiting for us at the front."
As soon as Earl Shaomai finished speaking, a noble next to him said:
"I heard that they are just guys from the countryside. They don't even have complete weapons and equipment. What danger can a group of farmers with farm tools pose to us?"
Just as this noble finished speaking, another noble next to him said with a smile:
"But it is this group of farmers who surround our beloved Duke of York in the castle. It seems that the Duke of York is quite kind to these farmers."
This man had just finished speaking, and the nobles beside him all laughed, because everyone knew that the words Duke of York and mercy were completely incompatible. The reason why the Duke was surrounded by these peasants was that
It was also because all 3,000 of his knights were killed by these farmers. This was news that had surprised everyone before.
In order to attack Victoria naturally, the Duke of York repeatedly spread the news that he had been humiliated by the Victorians, so he had a legitimate reason to attack Victoria. However, he did not expect that his attack on Victoria would be completely frustrated by the Victorians, and
Even the knights under him were all annihilated. Only a few escaped.
This news shocked everyone, and immediately after the surprise, they laughed at the once majestic Duke.
It can be said that because of this defeat, the Duke of York's prestige suddenly fell to the bottom. Even the noble men under him already looked down on the defeated Duke.
But they still had to fulfill their obligations as vassals. After Shaomai heard the people beside him talking and laughing, he then lightly knocked on the table, and then said:
"Everyone, I know you must think that the Victorians are very weak, but don't forget that it was these weak people who defeated the Duke's 3,000 cavalry. And how powerful the Duke of York's army is, I believe you know better than anyone else, don't
Don’t be careless if you underestimate the enemy, Victoria may not be as simple as we think.”
After Earl Shaomai said this, the other people's expressions became serious. Indeed, as he said, they had underestimated the enemy.
Just when the Earl of Shaomai was about to discuss a specific attack plan with them, a scout suddenly ran over in a hurry, rushed into the tent, and said to them:
"Your Majesty, there are people from Victoria approaching our camp!"
Just as that man finished speaking, the entire tent's earls and barons exploded.
They were whispering among themselves, speaking with expressions of disbelief on their faces. They were very angry. They seemed to feel deeply ashamed that the farmers in Victoria actually dared to attack them. It was as if they had given them a
As if despised.
The Earl of Shaomai quickly commanded the nobles in the camp to lead his own army to resist the approaching Victorians.
And when they came outside the camp and planned to form a military formation, they found that the number of Victorians approaching was not large, only more than 100 people, and they did not have any queues, not even riding horses.
He walked over on foot, not even wearing any clothes, and holding a stick in his hand that could not even be called a weapon.
In other words, they were not scouts, were they here for diplomacy? Everyone couldn't understand it, and they didn't attack them for a while. They stood there waiting for the Victorians to approach, and soon the more than 100 people came
When we reached the outskirts of the camp, which was about three minutes away by horseback, we stopped moving forward.
They pointed at the camp and said something, but they couldn't hear it clearly because they were too far away.
Shaomai waited for a while but didn't see what they did or said. He couldn't wait any longer, so he asked one of his subordinates to carry his flag and ran toward the more than 100 people on horseback.
Seeing a retinue on horseback approaching, the players suddenly became commotion.
In the eyes of the earls, these Victorians should be a sign of fear.
"I think these Victorians have been exaggerated. You see, they are already so scared just by seeing the appearance of our camp. If there is a real fight, I am afraid they will run away immediately. They think it is not difficult at all.
, it is completely unimaginable that the Duke would be surrounded by such an opponent and ask for help from us, he must be too careless."
An earl said this with a mocking tone, and the other earls nearby also laughed. Just as they were laughing, the more than 100 players swarmed towards the retinue who came over, and then in a crowd
In the chaos, the guard was knocked unconscious to the ground, stripped naked, and his horses were also taken away by the more than 100 people.
One of them got on the horse after a while of discussion, and turned his head triumphantly back in the direction he came from, but how could the earls endure such an insult.
They immediately rushed out on horseback, and in an instant, four to five hundred cavalry rushed towards the player.
Of course the players also saw the cavalry rushing towards them. They panicked and began to run away.
But how could two legs outrun four legs? Those cavalrymen rushed over quickly, and then waved their weapons like a massacre, cutting down the Victorians to the ground. There were curses and shouts everywhere.
There were angry roars and even laughter, but I did not hear any voices kneeling down to beg for mercy. Just like the legend, those Victorians had no intention of surrendering until they died, and really fought until the last person fell.
At the moment of falling, Earl Siomai, who was standing in the distance watching all this, was deeply shocked. He fell silent. He had never seen anyone with such a strong will to fight. This was just 100 people, and he had already shown it.
Such a strong will to fight. If it were really more than 5,000 Victorians, how terrifying would the collective will to fight be.
The Earl of Siomai suddenly realized that the legendary Victoria might not be just an exaggerated rumor.
The strong enemy in front of him made him tremble a little, not because he was afraid, but because he was excited about the upcoming battle. Only such a strong enemy can have the desire to defeat!
The Earl of Shaomai turned around on his horse and shouted to the nobles behind him:
"Everyone is ready. We will launch an attack on Victoria's camp immediately. We must not let these Victorians continue to besiege the Duke's castle like this. We must completely destroy their arrogance."
Just as Earl Shaomai finished speaking, the nobles immediately let out a roar that shook the sky, and then a large group of knights set off from the camp and headed towards the Victoria stronghold not far away.
Those Victorians who had just been sent back to the resurrection point, that is, the players, cursed some strange knights who appeared outside the Duke's Castle in the resurrection point, and the news spread around that they had launched an attack on them. As for them
Robbing other people's armors, horses, etc., isn't this something that should be normal? What's there to say?
