The thirsty defenders all turned their eyes to the wooden cart under the city wall. Ten pirates pushed and poked ten, nine of them were drunk, and the remaining one belonged to the bearded pirate, and they had never moved.

Ella's troops were displayed outside the three arrows. The defenders looked at the enemy troops in the distance, then at the bucket under the city, and began to struggle violently.

Someone shouted: "Don't care! You're so far away, just move faster!"

People woke up and began to rush toward the bucket of water under the city gate.

Ella looked at all this from afar. She thought that no matter what, Azov should surrender after five days of water cut off, but the opposite side obviously had no such plan. During these five days, she either looked at Azov anxiously or the sea worriedly. Reinforcements from the Republic of Liguria would arrive at any time. If Azov had not surrendered before, her battle would be half of the defeat.

"The soldiers scramble for water to drink, which means that the water in Azov City has indeed been cut off by us." Ella looked worried, "But this is the fifth day, and these defenders are still very energetic. How much water is there in Azov City?"

Amy comforted her: "No matter how much you reserve, it's just a past tense. As long as you wait a few more days, they will open the city and surrender."

"We cannot wait for them to surrender, we must tempt them as much as possible... Although the time is a bit subtle, we must be at ease in front of the defenders of Azov. Let the beard come over and speed up the next play."

...

The sixth day of the water cut off in Azov.

With a "clang", Princess Anna smashed a jar of water. She looked around carefully. After confirming that there was no one around, she grabbed a larger piece of debris and licked the water stained on the surface like a puppy.

"Princess! I'm back!"

The door was kicked open by Dust. Anna hurriedly hid the tiles behind her and prayed in her heart that Dust had not seen the unconventional appearance just now.

"Huh? Princess, why are your face red? What is hidden behind you? I see you just seemed to be licking... Oh, it hurts! Princess, why do you want to smash me as soon as I entered the door?"

"Why can't you hit you?" Anna shouted in anger, "I want water!"

Dust touched a few bruises on his face: "My method was exposed after being learned by the mercenaries. The Pirate Kingdom has strengthened its position on the sea and cannot hold the sea water... Yesterday I went to grab the bucket of water under the city wall, but I was punched several times in the face by the great corps. I was still sweating all over in vain."

“That is, there is no water?”

"No, there is still here."

Dust lifted a kettle in his hand like a magic trick and shook it in front of Anna. When Anna heard the sound of water coming from the kettle, her eyes suddenly shot out a greedy light like a beast seeing prey. He rushed towards the kettle like a hungry wolf. Dust was ready, and when he turned around lightly, Anna pounced on it.

Anna rubbed her nose that hit the ground and crawled up, looked at Dust from bottom to top, begging pitifully: "Master White Knight?"

"Just just screaming like this. It's no exaggeration to say that looking at the whole city, it's hard to find such a pot of water again!" Dust shook the kettle "bang" and deliberately seduced Anna, "You promise not to step on me again in the future, I'll give you this pot of water!"

"I promise!" Anna answered without thinking. Dust nodded with satisfaction and stretched his hand holding the kettle forward. Anna rushed over like a puppy and snatched the kettle and unscrewed the lid. But the moment before pouring the water into her mouth, she suddenly stopped and asked cautiously: "What kind of water is this? I won't drink strange water. This is my last dignity as a princess!"

"It's dew."

Anna felt at ease, lifted the kettle and poured the water into her mouth.

Dust said proudly, "It's not me that I'm blowing. I've been preparing for the first day when I found out that the water was cut off in Azov. For this pot of water, I woke up for six days early..."

After half a pot of water was drunk, Anna suddenly frowned: "Dust, this water... tastes a little strange? Is this really dew?"

"Of course it's dew! Every morning, there are a lot of dew drops in the grass." Dust unbuttoned the cloth leggings on his feet and shook them in front of Anna: "Just go around early and squeeze the water out of the leggings, you can collect the dew! This is the survival skills I learned when I was killed in the Central Asian prairie!"

Anna felt nausea, and the princess's dignity was shattered. But nausea would waste water. She had to cover her mouth and swallow the liquid that had flowed to her throat. This was an extremely difficult process. Anna widened her eyes and barely squeezed out a sentence from her teeth: "Next time... remember to use my handkerchief."

A sound of trumpet came from the city gate, which was a signal of the enemy's attack. Dust hurriedly put on his clothes and took off his clothes halfway and ran towards the city wall.

Yesterday the bearded pirate and his companions came again. This time, ten of them were each soaked in a big bucket. The bearded pirate leaned back and raised one leg gracefully to the sky under the eyes of the defenders, holding up the water and slowly washing the hair on his legs.

"We are ordered by the King of Sweden to come to Azov to take a bath!"

The defenders of Azov all installed crossbow arrows on the crossbow machine.

"Wait a minute! We're not here to fight!" The bearded pirate put down his legs in a panic, "Look, the buckets of water in front of the Swedish king formation..."

Countless crossbow arrows flew towards them, and the pirates hurriedly put the bucket upside down on their bodies and ran towards the besieged camp. The bearded pirate did not forget to continue shouting: "The King of Sweden said! As long as anyone comes to her, she will provide water for free! It doesn't matter if you want to go there after drinking the water, the King of Sweden ensures their safety!"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! That night, the defenders of Azov, who were extremely thirsty, climbed up to the wall from time to time, looked at the siege camp in the distance, and then looked at their companions, and were deeply entangled.

Ella asked the same question countless times that night: "Has an enemy secretly come down to the city to ask for water?"

The answer to her always the same sentence: "The King of Sweden, not yet."

The dark coast made Ella's heart unable to remain peaceful.

...

The seventh day of the water cut off in Azov City.

Anna fell to the ground like a pool of mud, shouting vaguely: "Sir White Knight, water...I want water..."

"Dew... After learning this method by the mercenaries, the grass was trampled." Dust was on the ground like Anna, and said in ambiguously, "Say less, exposing his tongue will accelerate the evaporation of water. This is the survival skills I learned when I was killed in the desert..."

Anna didn't hear what Dust said at all, and murmured like a fool: "Sir White Knight, water...I want water..."

"There is really no water. There is still urine I saved three days ago here. If you want it..."

"No...you have to, this is my last dignity as a princess..."

"Do you still have to...?"

"You want... no... want..."

A sound of horns came from the city gate. This time, Ella's army was like fighting for its life, and the rain of arrows surged up. The defenders took the last moment to prepare to fight. Unexpectedly, the siege troops rushed to the city and hurriedly withdrew with shields.

The defenders looked at each other as they looked at the ladders that had been set up on the city wall. Logically speaking, they should have pushed the ladders away at this time, but they were not very willing to take action.

The bearded pirate came again with his companions. This time, they splashed water at each other at the city.
