Chapter 2306 Predicament
The entire Fort of Honor suddenly fell into chaos. After Li Huailin revealed the conspiracy of the nobles, the angry people directly attacked them. You must know that these common people are afraid to let them go to the battlefield to confront those soldiers wearing armor and holding spears, but do those nobles have soldiers under their command?
Yes, this is the main city. Of course, it is impossible for the nobles to raise private soldiers in the main city. Otherwise, you want to rebel. Of course, they still have some subordinates, but there are not many of them, and most of them are originally the people in this city who were hired by them to work.
These nobles didn't expect things to turn so quickly. Although they really had an affair with the eldest prince, theoretically speaking, Misad would not touch them. No matter who becomes the emperor, they should be with him Are they on good terms? How can you do it to them?
By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late, the door was blocked by angry people, and a group of people surrounded their mansion and attacked them. And the thing they couldn't figure out until their death was...why did these people support Misad so much? Isn't this a disease? Their policy is a policy that makes you unable to survive, okay?
Crazy smashing and looting is going on in the city, and because the scale is too large, it can't be stopped at all. Originally, it was the City Guards in the city who were supposed to stop this kind of behavior, but now the City Guards have also joined the ranks of the common people. At this time, people from the Royal Guard should have come out, but the problem is that the people from the Royal Guard are now blocked in their own garrison.
Yes, Ravinson, the temporary captain of the Royal Guard, is also anxious now, and he didn't expect the situation to develop like this. Because according to their imagination, shouldn't Misad be torn into several pieces by the angry crowd? Who would have thought that these civilians would surround them now. Ravenson was also completely unprepared, and they were surrounded by the time the news came back.
Fortunately, although the Royal Guard is stationed in the city, the security is still relatively strict. At present, the people can only surround this side, and they have been directly beaten in by a method, but Lavenson is still in a hurry, let's not talk about it How long can they hold out in this situation? The problem now is... The First Prince's troops are about to arrive, and according to the previous agreement, they will open the city gate together. Can't even open the door.
Of course, Lavenson is anxious to death in this situation, and what is even more speechless is that he still doesn't know what the hell this is. If it wasn't for the people in this city suddenly going crazy, it would be this man named Ruo Lin Does the intruder have any way to control people's hearts, but it doesn't make sense, since they can control people's hearts, why not control them together?
But now it's too late for Lavinson to think about the reason, so it's better to solve the current problem first. The problem now must be how to get out, it would be really bad if it hindered the big event of Prince Vico. But now that he wants to go out, he can only find a way to deal with these irrational people... Attack? Ravenson thought for a second before rejecting this plan. Leaving aside how many people there are outside, whether the plan of storming is feasible is mainly because most of his subordinates are originally from the city. Needless to say, those common people still have their family members in it. Do you think it is possible for your own men to kill their family members? Maybe every minute someone will help the other side cut himself.
Now it's not good to be stuck here, and it's not good to rush out, what should I do? Ravenson thought for a while, and there was nothing he could do, let the higher-ups decide. Of course, the so-called above refers to the eldest prince Vico. What Lavinson meant was to contact the eldest prince immediately and tell him the situation here.
Although it is said that large-scale troops cannot go out now, small-scale people can still be sent out. Let people pretend to be ordinary people directly, and then find a place to climb over the wall,
It's fine as long as no one finds out. Vico had it done right away.
And when the Fort of Honor was in chaos, the Verus Legion led by the First Prince was actually not far from the main city. At this moment, Vico also received these inexplicable reports. Not only were there messages from Ravenson, but also messages from other nobles. Because these nobles really have nothing to do, the city guards don’t care, and the royal guards don’t see anyone, so they can only find their own backers. The letter also tells Vico to come with the troops quickly, otherwise they really can’t Serving you, my lord.
You can imagine Vico's expression when he received these reports, he stood there for half a minute without moving. Yes, how can you make him understand, what is the situation with these people, they want to see you to death, and then you support him like crazy, are you out of your mind?
To be honest, at the beginning, Vico couldn't believe that these reports were all true, but one after another, they all reported the same thing, or all the nobles in the city agreed to send fake information He played, or the people in the city were really crazy. And Vico didn't believe these two things, and now he doesn't know what the situation is.
But now he is really in trouble, and that is how to get into the city. Yes, although what Li Huailin said before is a guess, but the guess is not wrong at all. After receiving the news, Vico, of course, rushed to the direction of the main city as soon as possible. Almost all the soldiers went into battle lightly, not even luggage, let alone siege equipment. According to the original idea, you said that there are so many inner forces in the city (not just the royal guard), it should be easy to open the city gate, so of course siege engines are not necessary. But I didn't expect that something went wrong now. Now that the nobles in the city can't protect themselves, how can they help him open the city gate, and the royal guards are also blocked at home, and now they ask him what to do.
"Tell Ravenson, I don't care what he does, the city gate must be opened before my army arrives, if it can't be done, it will be a death penalty!" The angry Vico directly yelled at the messenger sent by Ravenson, and now he It's really on fire.
"Could you tell me what happened?" After sending the messenger away, Vico also asked the generals of the Verus Legion who were equally confused.
"This...the other party may have some magic that can deceive people..." one of the generals said.
"Then why didn't he control the nobles together, why is it that only the common people are crazy?" Vico said immediately, "Why didn't he control me together by the way."
"The IQ of the common people is relatively low, and of course it can't be compared with your Majesty the Emperor." A general on the other side said immediately.
"Now is not the time to flatter." Vico roared, "The question now is what to do? The current situation is that people in the city can no longer count on it. How can we enter the city?"
Yes, although the messenger had to go back and ask Ravinson to open the city gate, but Vico himself knew that it would be difficult to do so in this situation, so of course he had to think about what to do. Forced attack is definitely not enough. Of course, they know the walls of the Fort of Honor best. Although there are many of them, without siege engines, a group of people can only surround the city to see the scenery, and it is impossible to fight well. go in.
"This..." Of course, the group of generals couldn't think of any solution. Facing this kind of fortified city, without a siege tool, it would be hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. There is no way at all.
"How long will it take us to adjust the siege equipment now?" Vico asked immediately.
"Your Majesty, although there are siege machines in our barracks, they are not aimed at cities like Fort Honor. Such siege machines like a fortified city will not work at all. We need to make new ones." One of the generals replied. Said, "But if this is the case, at least ten days and a half a month is..."
"Ten days and a half a month? Are you joking?" Vico roared.
"Your Majesty, calm down." All the generals saw that Vico was really angry, and quickly bowed down.
"Report." Just as they were talking, an orderly came running from the front and reported to Viko and the others.
"Say!" said Vico immediately.
"Reporting Your Majesty, we found a group of civilians heading towards Honor Hold, and we have stopped them now. After questioning, they came from Sallit City in the east. This time, their purpose is to go to the main city. Thank you face to face, and offer blessings to the new emperor's enthronement." The soldier immediately said, "Your Majesty, what shall we do with them?"
"Huh? The people of Sallit City, go to the main city to thank the new emperor? Misad?" Vico was stunned.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The soldier nodded.
Vic was shocked again, what the hell is going on. Of course he knows Sallit City. This city is a small city, not very far from the main city of Honor Fort. It is normal for people from Sallit City to come to Honor Fort. The question is...why do these people also Going to Honor Hold to thank Misad? Didn't it mean that only the people in Honor Hold were crazy? Why are the people in Sallit City crazy now? This... What is this situation?
"You...bring them here first, and I'll ask about the situation." Viko thought for a while and said to the guard.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The orderly here nodded immediately, and just about to lead someone, Vico stopped him again.
"Wait, send people to the surrounding towns to ask, to see what the people think about Misad's side except the people in the main city, and then come back and report right away, fast!" Vico said .
