Chapter 29: Nothing happens today (5)
When the Earl of Ile de France mentioned "Mary", the Red Knife, the White Bow and the Black Balance understood that they could no longer persuade them about this matter.
"The negotiation is feasible. As long as you report your name from the consul, they have no reason not to agree to the exchange. After all, Mary has no effect on them." Black Tianping said while thinking, "It is just to be careful not to take the consul away but not return Mary. Therefore, the negotiation is best to be held in front of the two armies, and both sides exchange prisoners of war with each other. In addition, beware of cold arrows, so Miss Mary is not shot to death by the bow and arrow on the return journey."
"You can leave the cold arrow to me," said Bai Gong. "If anyone wants to shoot Miss Mary with an arrow, I promise that he will fall first."
"Of course, they will definitely be on guard against us." Hei Tianping continued, "Consul, you are different from Mary. Mary has no power to tie up, but you are a warrior, so they will definitely ask you to tie up the consul when the exchange is done. Therefore, the key is how to make the opponent misjudgment... Is there any way to bind the opponent to think that you have been tied up, but in fact you can get rid of it as soon as you make it?"
"Who knows this kind of ghost thing?" Hongdao scratched his hair, "I can only fight, or I will really tie it up. Then I will accompany the count to him and seize the opportunity to force the iron chain to break it?"
"No! What are you discussing??" Simena shouted from the side, "Why do you have to exchange Carolin for his sister? Even if you make complete preparations for such things, he is likely not going to come back!"
When the white bow, the red knife, and the black balance heard it, they all pointed helplessly at the Earl of France with their eyes, as if saying, "Then you go and talk to him."
"It is natural to exchange it, because the person who should be locked up in it should be me." The Earl of France had no spirit in his eyes. "All the decrees were issued in my name, all decisions were made after my consent, and the current situation of the Federation was also caused by me, and these had nothing to do with Mary. If this is my destiny, I should accept it calmly instead of letting Mary be my scapegoat."
"Calorin!" Simena glared at him with some anger: "You have killed my father, my mother, my brother, and my fiancé. Do you still want to do this again and kill my lover with your own hands?"
"Kill your lover?"
"It's you! Caroling! Do you want to leave me alone? Have you ever thought about what should I do if you die like this? Is there anyone else I can rely on? What are you going to let me do!!!"
"I..." The Count of Ile-de-France's eyes trembled violently. "But... no matter what, Mary should not die for me."
"Mary is right in Paris, right? Can't we forcefully capture Paris and rescue him with dignity? I even brought the army to you!"
"But... you don't have the equipment to attack the city. The ladder I made has been destroyed in the siege just now. We cannot climb up the walls of the Bastille with bare hands." The Earl of Ile-de-France smiled and said, "And tomorrow is the day for public trial. Even if there are many troops, it is impossible to capture Paris in less than a day.
"Calorin! What about your momentum before? When you conquered my country, you brought only one hundred people. When you killed my fiancé, you even brought even fewer people. But now, look at my back - we have brought you three thousand people!"
Simena pointed at the army behind her with great might:
"If you still want to exchange your own life for your sister, okay, you can go! But I will become the leader instead of you! I will put my words here and I will definitely rescue you! Even if you become a corpse, I will not let him fall into the hands of the enemy!"
"The princess is not good at fighting. Not only her, but she is not the only one in me, the red sword, or the black scale, either of them is capable of commanding this army to fight." The white bow looked at the Earl of Ile-de-France meaningfully, "Consul, we need a general who can help us break through Paris... very much."
"Yes, consul! Isn't it Paris? I'm just a place where I urinate, I'm afraid of an egg!" Hongdao asked, "Today, let everyone rest for a while and recover their strength. Tomorrow we will go and chisel the door of Paris to the end!"
"no."
The Count of Ile-de-France shook his head and silently carried his back over his body.
"Calorin!" Simena shouted even more angrily.
"You can't just rest like this tonight." He turned his head and forced a smile on his face. "Send a few teams to take turns to beat drums under the city wall. I want to make the defenders unable to sleep all night tonight!"
"The consul..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Black Flat Ping walked to Simena's side and owed slightly to express her gratitude.
"Thank you," he said, "we can't persuade the consul for Miss Mary."
The war drum beat the walls of the Bastille overnight.
The next morning, the Count of Ile de France came to the wall with his resting army. He rode on the pony brought to him by Siména, and the three thousand soldiers transferred from Burgundy were divided into five square formations, neatly arranged behind him.
"We lack siege tools, and the only way is to cut off the chains of the suspension bridge and put them down directly."
"Let the spears be connected together with ropes and make simple ladders. Don't be too high. If they are too high, they will be overthrown by enemies on the city wall. Make it slightly higher than the suspension bridge, but the enemies on the city wall cannot touch it."
"The moat had been filled in part last night. The war drums beat last night, and the defenders did not dare to go out of the city to clean up. These filled places were enough to build ladders. But we need to continue to fill in other parts of the moat and make a strong attack posture to distract the enemy."
"I will step on the ladder, then jump off the ladder, and cut off the last chain. However, among the soldiers guarding the city, there is a skilled female swordsman, and she will probably come to stop me. At this time, you will have to rely on the support of White Bow and Red Knife."
"I will give Zeus the protection of the entire army. As for how much effect it will be, I don't know. Before becoming a consul, I was just a declining nobleman and had no power to command the army. After becoming a consul, I did not fulfill my obligations as a consul to take the federal army to resist foreign enemies. As for military conflicts with the federal lords, it has never happened. It was the first time for me to lead a large army to fight like this."
"Just say this. When the drums sound, we will move forward bravely according to the assigned tasks."
"Because the sound of the war drums sounded, I couldn't stop."
"A war will come after war, and a battlefield will come after battlefield."
