The King of Knights in a Different World

Eight days later, Lucifer arrived under the Macedonian royal city.

Following the previous example of France, most of the Macedonian nobles simply chose to surrender after seeing Lucifer's army along the way.

A few days after arriving in the royal city, Lucifer did not attack immediately, but continuously sent thousands of troops to shoot arrows into the city to notify the people in the city and ask them to surrender.

You can still survive if you surrender, otherwise when you attack, no one involved will be able to escape.

Faced with the situation, Lucifer persuaded him to surrender, and for a while the people in the city were in shock.

There was a Macedonian general who couldn't bear the provocation and led 3,000 men to kill him, but was ambushed and wiped out.

After that, everyone stayed in the city honestly.

Aristotle only learned about what happened in the fortress on the second day after Lucifer captured the fortress, and he only learned about what happened from some soldiers who fled to the territory near the fortress.

And the person who was supposed to report it has died in Tristan's hands.

At that time, these soldiers only said that Britain had stormed the city wall, and they did not know what happened next.

Later, the territorial nobles sent out a small team, but because they were afraid of death, it took them a day to confirm the facts.

This was because Lucifer's army was already attacking inward. After discovering this, the lord subconsciously reported it to his superiors, and then chose to surrender when Lucifer arrived.

It took another two days for Aristotle to know what happened inside the fortress.

This is all a waste of time because it is not directly transmitted to the army.

When he found out, he sent someone to confirm, and at the same time gave an order to Myones in the south, asking them to abandon the alley and come back to support the royal city.

At this moment, Aristo on the city wall looked at the British camp in the distance, feeling very regretful.

The camp dozens of kilometers away seemed to Aristotle to be just a small dot. At this distance, his observation using magical farsight was also blocked by the barrier of the military camp.

Only now did he realize that he had been deceived and that there was nothing he could do about it.

There are now a total of 80,000 defenders in the royal city. In addition to the 40,000 original defenders, there are also 30,000 who were previously planned to be sent to the western fortress, but the fortress fell before they could. , and the next ten thousand are... people summoned temporarily.

Now Aristotle was somewhat glad that he had not sent these 30,000 people out in a hurry before.

Otherwise, the current result will be even more difficult.

The defender of the royal city is Parmenion, and currently he is the only one who can take action.

Compared to the disadvantages of troops and generals, the only thing they were lucky about was that the walls of the royal city were taller and wider, and there were more defensive equipment.

Moreover, Lucifer marched in a hurry and did not bring any siege weapons.

"Lord Aristotle, what should we do now?"

On the city wall, Parmenion was looking at the sage beside him.

If you speculate as a general, Parmenion is very pessimistic.

Although the Royal City has a favorable location, the other party obviously has more people.

This is not just about soldiers, but also high-level combat capabilities.

"Hold tight and wait for reinforcements.

I have ordered Myones and the others to bring troops back for reinforcements, and I calculate that the time is almost here. If we persist for a few days at most, we will surely wait for their reinforcements."

Aristotle said wearily.

He hasn't had a good rest at all in the past few days. He has been doing everything himself and busy with the layout of the royal city.

Lucifer's surrender letter sent into the city gave him a headache because he had discovered that some nobles who were afraid of death were wavering.

Of course, it's not that he can't understand the thoughts of these people.

It's obvious that Lucifer is very good at fighting, and he treats those who surrender pretty well.

Although he has no real power and has to hand over half of his wealth, his title is still there: the most important thing is to survive.

If you don't surrender, you will...run away your home and destroy your family. You don't have to think about how to choose them.

Of course, these are some marginal nobles and small nobles. The big nobles do not want to give up their privileges until they have to.

But even that was enough to give him a headache.

He was very worried that these people would unite to rebel. If Lucifer opened the city gate, his plan would be completely ruined.

He still doesn't understand why Lucifer gave up on Rome, which was attacking so smoothly, and instead went south to stab Macedonia.

"Where's the king?

Is there any news from the king? The situation at hand is not optimistic even with reinforcements from Myones and the others. The King of Knights must also have reinforcements.

The situation will not change then.”

Parmenyu asked worriedly.

Now he just wants his king to get away from Helen as soon as possible.

Otherwise the situation may be very bad.

"I have sent a message to the king, but I cannot interfere with whatever the king decides."

"..."

Just when Aristotle was thinking about how to deal with the current situation after the reinforcements returned, a soldier hurried to Aristotle and delivered an urgent military message.

Aristotle opened it immediately before he could think about it. The moment he saw the contents, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The document in his hand fell directly to the ground, and he didn't even feel it.

"Sage!"

Parmenion looked at Aristotle strangely.

In his memory, he had never seen Xiande lose his composure like this.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, I need to take a rest, I'm fine."

Aristotle sat tiredly on the chair next to him, his face full of decadence.

no.562 The situation is bad

Parmenion picked up the document on the ground, and when he saw the content, a surprise that he had never seen before appeared on his face.

"How can this be"

The content of the document is very simple. It is an urgent military message sent back by the Griffin.

What is said above is that the Myones tribe encountered an ambush near Baihua: Mountain and suffered heavy losses. The specific losses were not explained.

But from the current perspective, the situation may be very bad.

But there is a problem here. The British camp is obviously dozens of kilometers away, so why did Lucifer suddenly appear the white flowers in the south: the mountain.

In an instant, Parmenion understood that the reason why the British army retreated so far was because they had other things to do.

If Lucifer leaves, then who is there in the camp on the opposite side?

Thinking of this, Parmanyu suddenly felt that he had found an opportunity.

"Good opportunity, sage.

Since the King of Knights appears in White Flower: Mountain, we can now send troops to attack the opponent's camp immediately.

The King of Knights is leading an elite attack, and his camp must be undefended. As long as we attack, we can win."

Parmenion discovered a key point based on his intuition.

"Hold on, General Parmenion.

How can we attack the King of Knights now?"

Aristotle smiled bitterly at this.

"But......"

"What if there are other traps out there?"

"..."

In one sentence, Parmenio did not dare to say any more.

Yes, it looks like there is an opportunity to attack the British camp.

But the problem is that if the other party still traps people, he will just... send them away.

Even if he defeated the British army in the camp, most of the British elite would definitely be in Lucifer's hands, and there might only be 10,000 people there.

In other words, when Lucifer comes back, their situation has not changed.

The risk is to defeat at most 10,000 or 20,000 people, but it may result in the loss of the only defense force.

They cannot afford to take this risk.

In the next few days, news spread in the royal city that Maones and Polyperchon had died in battle.

At the same time, their 90,000 elite troops were also buried together, while Perdiccas and his 40,000 troops were left to break through desperately under the cover of the other two and fled towards the border between Helen and Macedonia.

At this time, the hope of the largest reinforcements was immediately lost. In the next few days, a new army of nobles from various places was sent to the royal city, totaling 50,000, and was defeated.

In the past few days, what I have seen most in the royal city is... Macedonian deserters.

A scattered number of more than 10,000 people fled to the royal city.

The news brought by these people also made the inner city of the royal city even more precarious.

At this moment, Aristotle finally understood the reason why Lucifer did not attack before.

It's not that they don't attack, but the target Lucifer chose from the beginning was...reinforcements.

It's been less than a month here.

The changes in Qedun once again shocked the mainland.

No one expected that Lucifer would abandon Rome, which was successfully attacking, and turn around without fighting. In fact, when Aristotle was arranging the defense of the royal city, he also knew about Alexander.

At this time, Alexander was still there: After Helen and Helen's final coalition received the news, Weber suggested that he return for reinforcements immediately.

His idea is also very simple. Macedonia is the foundation of Alexander and must not be lost.

But this decision also means everything about Helen.

If Alexander led his army to leave now, Helen's side would definitely counterattack, and then all the land he had conquered during this period might be recaptured.

And those... kings who took refuge in him must also want to restore their country.

His efforts over the past few months may be in vain.

It was clear that victory was right in front of him, but there was only one last step left. He was very unwilling to give up now.

So he ignored Weber's views and prepared to do his best to eliminate Helen's last strength.

Alexander also had his own considerations. He still had a certain amount of troops in the country. He reported that Lucifer's army was less than 150,000. If Maones brought his people back, he would definitely be able to defend it.

As long as he buys a little time, he can destroy Helen.

At that time, we will return to attack Lucifer together.

However, the development of things was beyond his expectation.

Lucifer did not storm the royal city, but ambushed Myones' reinforcements halfway.

Now all his plans went haywire.

In the Macedonian tent, Alexander looked at the map in front of him alone in a daze.

He didn't notice it until Weber came in.

"king!"

Weber took the initiative and said.

"Webber?

Our situation is very bad."

"It's very bad.

Given the current situation, it may be too late to go back and rescue the royal city."

Weber shook his head.
