"Hurry up!"

"His Royal Highness has an order! Ankola's house harbors assassins, all of them must be arrested and interrogated, and no one should be let go!"

"Step! Step! Step!"

The Iron Guard, the confidant of the eldest prince, acted very quickly. It took less than two hours to surround the Ankola family's mansion after the eldest prince gave the order. Under the leadership of the knights, the Ankola family's mansion was completely surrounded. The Ankola family was blocked in the mansion by the iron guards almost without any reaction. All the main members stayed in the mansion and failed to escape.

"Damn it!"

"There is a traitor in the family!"

"It must have been brought to light!"

When the army came to surround Ankola's mansion, the Viscount Ankola himself was like an ant on a hot pot, walking around the hall again and again. The iron guards surrounded Ankola The family's mansion, except for that matter, there is almost no other possibility.

"My lord, is there any misunderstanding? There are only a few family members who have seen that lord. They are all trustworthy, perhaps because of other things."

The butler at the side wanted to defend those family-born children. After all, he was also a family-born child, so he was naturally closer to those family-born children.

"Is there anything else worthy of dispatching the entire army of the Iron Guard under the eldest prince? I underestimated the black prison. I didn't expect these minions to be buried so deep in my Ankola house."

Although Viscount Ankola had heard of the name of the Black Prison for a long time, he was less awed if he hadn’t really seen the Black Prison. The Black Prison was somewhat different from what Richard knew about the Jinyiwei, not so arrogant and domineering, more like A hidden sharp blade, only those who face it when unsheathed can perceive its horror.

"Master Viscount, what should we do next?"

With the army of the Iron Guard basically controlling the streets near Ankola's manor, escaping has become a luxury at this moment, and even the usually shrewd butler has no idea at this moment.

It stands to reason that the Ankola family, as the natives of Clays City, has also penetrated into all aspects of the city. They should have some news about the actions of the kingdom, and they can prepare in advance, at least to give the direct descendants of the Ankola family Allow a little time for absconding, no matter whether they can escape from the surveillance of the black prison, at least they will not be trapped to death in this manor.

But the eldest prince obviously also knew that the power of the kingdom in Krystal City was not completely trustworthy, so he directly escaped the garrison army system, and gave the order to his own iron guards. The nobles have absolutely nothing to do with it, so it is naturally impossible to leak information to Viscount Ankola.

"How to do how to do."

"Let the guards guard the manor, and no one is allowed to enter!"

"This? Lord Viscount, are we going to resist the Grand Prince's Iron Guard?"

The security team of the Ankola family has a few catties and a few ounces. The steward is still very clear. It is more than enough to bully the tenant farmers on the territory and help the fish and meat people of the Ankola family. After all, there are about 200 well-equipped soldiers. , not a group of mud legs can fight.

But they are only limited to oppressing the common people. The Ankola family is not like the group of warriors in the north who have to fight from time to time, and they are not like the nobles near the dragon's breath. They are all newly promoted martial arts nobles. , still maintains the military heritage and is ready to deal with the orcs at any time, even they are not as good as the group of nobles in the south near the sea, at least those people used to have to deal with the harassment of the sea clan from time to time.

Although the nobles of the kingdom can raise private soldiers, it depends on whether it is necessary. The Ankola family, the inland nobles who are not even firm in rebellion, have no motivation to maintain strong armed forces at all, and the whole family has long fallen into Money is in the eye, and I am reluctant to spend so much on raising soldiers.

Compared with the murderous iron guards under the eldest prince, these gorgeously dressed guards are just like a knight-rank commander. They are like flowers in a greenhouse, both in quantity and quality. A big cut, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is irresistible.

"Don't resist, is my Ankola family going to be captured without a fight?"

"Things have reached this point, we have no possibility of retreating, hold on for time, and immediately go to that lord for help. As long as that lord takes action and kills the eldest prince, we still have a chance."

Under the crisis of life and death, Viscount Ankola became very clear-headed. Looking at the posture of the eldest prince, there is absolutely no good fruit to catch without fighting. It is better to count on that unfathomable strong man to kill the eldest prince. , making the situation confusing.

There may still be a glimmer of life if he completely invests in the church, at least he can seize the chaotic gap and escape.

Under the orders of Viscount Ankola, the guards in the manor moved quickly. The manor of the Ankola family is similar to that of the Newman family. It must be completely inferior to the real castle. It is basically not enough to look at in front of the regular army, let alone the elite iron guards under the prince. The iron guards outside have even pulled out after blocking the street. Without siege equipment such as shield vehicles and charging vehicles, as long as these large-scale equipment are in place, the attack will start quickly, and the guards of the Ankola family have no possibility of resisting.

However, although the combat effectiveness of the guards of the Ankara family is doubtful, they still have loyalty. After all, the only knight rank officer is a member of the Ankara family, and several quasi-knight officers are also descendants of the Ankara family. Although the Viscount Ankola was greedy, he had a sense of importance. He was good to these guards with sword handles on weekdays, so even in the face of the Iron Guards, the guards of the Ankola family still bit the bullet and carried out the security measures. Viscount Cora's order came.

The heavy iron gate was locked tightly, and the guards of the Ankola family stood on the top of the wall, armed with weapons, as if they were going to fight to the end, while the iron guards outside were acting step by step, only waiting for the order of the eldest prince.

"The Ankola family really has a problem. They showed their blades without even answering. Is this the confidence given to them by the remnants of the Rising Sun Sect?"

The eldest prince and Richard rode horses and stood in an open space not far from the Ankola's manor, watching the movement of the Ankola's house.

At this moment, there was a particularly strange scene around the eldest prince. In the late autumn when the sun was not too harsh, with the eldest prince at the center, dozens of Iron Guard soldiers set up several huge parasols. The parasols used by noble ladies in summer are several times larger, and it takes several strong sergeants to carry them. The large umbrellas are connected in one piece, and there is no one within tens of meters of the eldest prince.

You know, the eldest prince who can lead good soldiers has always been a soldier, and even often trains with the Iron Guards, not to mention basking in the sun, even wading in ditches with soldiers, there has never been a precedent for holding an umbrella under the scorching sun , This time it was also for the sake of my own life that I made this move.

The distance of tens of meters is enough for Li Cha and the others to react.

The slightly strange behavior of the eldest prince did not affect his prestige among the Iron Guards. The surrounding soldiers stood solemnly, only waiting for the order from the eldest prince.

"attack!"

The eldest prince didn't let the soldiers wait for too long. He made up his mind to attack after showing a gesture of resistance in Ankola's house. After seeing several rush cars and shield cars in place, he immediately gave the order to attack.

"One two! One two!"

"Boom..."

The heavy shield cart pressed against the slate floor of Clays City and made a loud noise, approaching Ankola's manor step by step, giving the defenders in the manor a great sense of oppression, and many of the defenders on the wall had scars on their foreheads. Sweat.

Although they have a certain degree of loyalty, in the final analysis, they are just a group of soldiers who have not experienced much actual combat. They are not as good as those elites who have been fighting all the year round on the border, and they are not like the Cliff family who are all believers of the Sun God Sect. The formed army also lacked a lot of will to fight. At this moment, standing on the wall to resist against the Iron Guard was worthy of the preferential treatment given by the Ankola family.

"Archer!"

"Let the arrow!"

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The commander of the Ankola family is also inexperienced. Although he has the strength of a knight, it does not mean that he has any experience in military command. Under the slow oppression of the Iron Guards, he cannot bear the pressure in his heart. The order to release the arrow was issued at a distance of about two steps.

This distance is also within the range of archers, but it is definitely not within their killing range. The range of these ordinary crossbows may reach more than one hundred steps, but after fifty steps, the lethality will depend on fate. What's more, as the name suggests, the Iron Guards, as the prince's cronies, are all covered with solid heavy armor, and some of them even wear iron armor custom-made from dwarves. All depends on luck.

At this distance of a hundred steps, there was really no chance at all. When the iron guards in the front row erected their shields, all the arrows were powerless and fell to the ground, causing no casualties to the advancing iron guards.

But the guards of the Ankola family, who have been mentally collapsed to the extreme, need a vent to release the pressure in their hearts. Once the arrows start to be released, they can't stop. Next, the defenders on the wall kept shooting bows and arrows, seeking a little inner sense of security.

Until the iron guards marched to less than fifty steps away from Ankola's manor.

"preparation!"

"put!"

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

The officers of the Iron Guard are obviously much more experienced. These officers from the Royal Knights Academy are not bad in theory and practice. They are almost perfect in arranging various flying tactics and ordering to release arrows at the most suitable distance for archers. , a string of arrows shot towards the guards on the wall.

Although the guards of the Ankola family were also wearing armor, the defensive power of their gaudy armor was much worse than that of the iron guards. At a distance of fifty steps, the probability of being armored was greatly increased. As many as a dozen people fell down in one download, which caused quite a bit of confusion.

However, the iron guards did not stop because of shooting arrows. During the several rounds of shooting by the archers, the team pushing the cart advanced more than 20 steps. Seeing that they were already close to the high wall of the manor, everyone We all know that neither the gate nor the high walls of the manor can hold up to this stout car, and when the car approaches, it's time for the Iron Guards to break into the manor.

On the city wall, several officers of the Ankola family suppressed the guards and resisted desperately, and the manor was also in chaos.

The bows and arrows of the iron guards not only shot at the defenders on the wall, but also fell directly inside the manor. Many servants and women in common clothes were shot through by the arrows and nailed to the ground, causing screams.

The Viscount Ankola pinned all his hopes on the envoy dressed in black, hoping that he could take action to win the Ankola family a life.

"My lord, the prince's iron guards are about to rush in, please help me!"

Viscount Ankola put his posture very low, and knelt directly in front of the opponent.

"If I kill the eldest prince, can your Ankola family escape from these soldiers?"

"At least there is still a glimmer of life!"

"Really, a boring game."

Under the plea of ​​Viscount Ankola, the black-robed angel finally stood up. He didn't care about what happened outside at all. Although he didn't want to kill thousands of iron guards, he would No one can stop him from leaving, but if the Ankola family is exterminated like this, he will feel a little bit embarrassed.

He got up and ignored the Viscount Ankola next to him, the envoy of the Lord of Shadows disappeared into the room in an instant...

...

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

"kill!"

"The eldest prince has an order. Anyone who resists will be shot to death!"

The car finally advanced to the gate of the manor. The kerosene prepared by the guards of the Ankola family was useless. Just before it was dumped, it was shot into a sieve by the iron guard shooters who had prepared for it.

The outer walls of the manor are not comparable to the real castles, and the archers of the Iron Guard can easily suppress the guards on the walls.

The rushing car began to hit the door without hindrance. With the joint efforts of more than a dozen Iron Guard soldiers, it only took two blows to knock down the gate of the Ankola Manor. A large number of Iron Guard soldiers fell to the ground at the gate. In an instant, he rushed into the manor.

The guards with a high wall as a barrier can still muster up the courage to fight. At this time, the gate is open, facing the iron guard soldiers who are like wolves and tigers, the guards of the Ankola family completely lost the courage to fight. After many loyalists were chopped down to the ground like melons and vegetables by the soldiers of the Iron Guards, the rest of the guards scattered in an instant. To the Iron Guards, this battle was more like an armed parade.

After attacking the manor, the Iron Guard soldiers quickly divided into several groups, occupying key points, controlling the prisoners, and part of them continued to advance towards the inner courtyard of the manor. The whole process seemed extremely smooth.

It's just that the eldest prince, who has been observing the battle on the other side, has not let up at all. He is very clear that the Ankola family itself is not worthy of his serious treatment, and the real enemy has not yet appeared.

"Clang!"

At this moment, the Sword Saint Kexid, who had been standing side by side with Li Cha and others, suddenly drew out his long sword. With the sound of the sword, a dozen or so groups of black people appeared from the figure tens of meters away from the eldest prince. Shadow comes.

"finally come."

Facing the shadow assassins attacking, the eldest prince didn't feel too nervous, but felt relieved. He was actually more afraid of destroying the Ankola family and these guys would not show up.

"Protect Your Highness!"

The iron guard officer next to the eldest prince also reacted and gave orders in a loud voice.

The soldiers of the iron guards around them quickly attacked the dozen or so black shadows.

The real elite of the Iron Guards did not participate in the attack on the Ankola family's manor at all, but were all arranged around this huge canopy...
