Black Iron Crown

The bloody scene immediately surprised everyone, and the soldiers who were blocked outside yelled angrily, because they almost became victims too.

And those lucky ones who successfully entered the inner wall were full of fear, and their eyes were full of horror.

The most unlucky ones are the people who are pressed down by the city gates. They look very miserable. Anyone who sees them will have a heart of compassion. They howl terribly, like evil spirits pulled out of hell generally.

"Close the city gate!"

The commander was slightly taken aback after seeing the brutal scene caused by his order, but then he quickly recovered. Although his scalp was faintly tingling, he still kept his mission firmly in mind.

The soldiers couldn't react because they were shocked, and the commander yelled again: "I said close the city gate! You bloody pigs! Do you want me to do it myself!"

Under such severe reprimands, the soldiers under his command finally came to their senses and hurried to close the city gate.

"No! Please..."

"Hey... help me..."

Up to now, there are still a few soldiers who were nailed under the gate of the city gate. Their eyesight looked slack, and there were sticky blood bubbles flowing from their mouths.

"No...we can't save..."

It's no problem for these soldiers to fight on the battlefield. It's normal to kill or be killed by others, but it's very normal for them to be killed by their own soldiers in extremely bloody and brutal ways. accepted.

"Don't! You must die!"

"We won't let you go! You beasts!"

The soldiers who were locked outside the city gate cursed and roared loudly. At this moment, all their hopes were taken away, and they almost hated those people in the city.

"What are you looking at! Report on the city wall now! You damn deserters survived because of me! If you don't make up for your mistakes, do you want to be hanged?"

The commander was also not in a good mood, but he didn't want to reveal that he had done something wrong, so he could only sternly curse at the soldiers who had escaped.

"Alas... the guilt is on me..." A Templar closed his eyes and prayed in a low voice for the soldiers who died at the hands of his own people.

May their souls go to heaven.

They couldn't bear it, but they couldn't open their mouths to attack the commander who issued this order, because they were also the beneficiaries of this order.

The bad news soon passed back to the hall of Lu Gaoyin Fortress. After hearing the news, the kings and lords immediately went into an uproar, causing a great uproar.

"Damn it! What's going on! We have so many troops on the city wall! There are so many elite reinforcements! How did we get to this point!"

Many people are very angry, and some people have even begun to despair. Some small lords have deployed almost all their troops on the city wall. Outside has morale up all the strength.

"Your Majesty! Why did this happen! Why!"

"Damn it! Who gave the order to close the city gate! I will never let him go!"

"What are we going to do now! All my troops are gone!"

Pope Rosa was also distraught at this time. As the initiator of this war, he must take responsibility for this matter.

The faces of the rest of the kings and great lords were also very ugly. Although they had a stronger foundation and would not lose all their armed forces, each of them sent a considerable number of troops to participate in the defense of the city.

The army of these people lost a part in the previous war. They were either killed or captured. On the way to escape, some people were separated from the large army, and some people died on the way to escape. Even the kings, the rest of the army also extremely limited.

At this time, there were only about 10,000 troops stationed in the inner city and the main fort. If they hadn't moved their belongings and supplies into the main fort before then, their only choice now would be to surrender.

When the fortress hall was in chaos, Leiner brought his personal guards to the gate of the outer wall.

"Go and pass on my order, those who surrender will not die, and no one is allowed to hurt those who have put down their weapons!" Reiner raised his whip and pointed at the city, saying with excitement.

The guard beside him hastily carried a message and galloped into the wall to deliver Leiner's order.

"Surrender and don't kill! Everyone put down their weapons! Put down your weapons and put your hands on your head and squat on the ground!" We will ensure the safety of all of you! "After receiving Leiner's order, the soldiers and knights of the Imperial Army shouted one after another.

After receiving the guarantee of safety, the soldiers who had been locked outside and had become orphans put down their weapons and armor one after another, and squatted on the spot with their heads in their arms, waiting for the soldiers of the Imperial Army to take them into custody.

The soldiers' actions were also very quick. They only took an hour to arrest all the more than 5,000 defeated troops.

There were more than 400 templar knights and fief knights who were lucky enough not to be killed by the Scarlet Griffon Knights were also carefully deprived of their mobility and completely reduced to prisoners of war.

After everything was settled and absolute safety was ensured, Leiner took his personal guards and a series of vassals into Lu Gaoyin's city walls.

The battle went so smoothly, somewhat beyond everyone's expectations, but this did not affect Leiner's arrangements.

After counting the number of soldiers and relocating the wounded, the number of casualties in this siege was counted.

In this siege, one hundred and eighty-five imperial sergeants directly under Leiner were killed, three hundred and twenty-three imperial soldiers were killed, fifty-five were killed by the Golden Lion Guard, and a total of two hundred crossbowmen and archers were killed. Fifty-seven people.

In total, more than a thousand people were killed in Reiner's own direct army alone!

This is undoubtedly a huge number. Leiner's direct army is only in the early 10,000s, and the number of people who can be used to attack the city is only more than 7,000. If the soldiers who are seriously injured and unable to continue fighting are counted, Leiner has lost a lot More than 1,800 people, nearly a quarter of the loss.

In addition to Leiner's own casualties, the losses of the vassals and the Volunteer Army were not small, and there were more than 2,500 losses in total.

Taken together, this siege of Leiner cost a total of more than 5,000 people, and conquered the outer wall of Lu Gaoyin Fortress, which was defended by 10,000 people.

The results were brilliant, but the losses were almost unbearable to Leiner. These people were all elites who fought against him in the past, and he would be very distressed if they lost too much.

Therefore, Reiner decided to conduct a negotiation with the lord kings in the main castle, a negotiation that could bring peace to both sides and at the same time make up for all his losses.

Reiner is not worried about this, he does not lack time, and at the same time, after defeating the enemy once, he has an absolute advantage in the negotiating field.
