On the eastern border of Lyle County, it is not too far to Oldenburg City, only less than 40 kilometers. Horses run for an hour and rest for half an hour, and then run for another hour, and it will be almost there. Then, feed some oats and recover.

For this reason, before the expedition, each horse used by the army had a bag on its neck, which contained more than a dozen kilograms of fried oatmeal. The bag on Marin's war with Macarl's neck was more advanced, which was fried soybeans... Who told Americo Island to send a few bags of soybeans back...

After the assembly, taking advantage of the faint moonlight emitted by the crescent moon in the sky, 5,000 veterans stepped onto the war horses and ran all the way to Oldenburg City with weapons...

Because the weapon is a large shield with a large door panel, the big shield soldiers were the most suffering. Therefore, Marin specially equipped the 100 shield soldiers with twin horses. Because the shield was quite heavy... As for the other 100 shield soldiers, they were sent to Hamburg by ship. They would join Schwartz's army outside Hamburg in the middle of the night... In addition, Doni Cry's blasting team was also very distressed, bringing several powder kegs, and also needing one person and two horses...

The 5,000 cavalry marching was very powerful, but it was not at all confusing. This is because Marin had trained to travel at night before, and everyone had experience.

The team was led by the scouts under Saul. They had to walk this road every night these days, familiar with the situation, and prepare for being a guide for the large army. After so long, they were already very familiar with this road.

Under the leadership of the scout guide, the army took advantage of the moonlight and whistled by, and the sound of horse hooves made the earth tremble. Although the manors passed along the way were alarmed, no one dared to come out to find out the news, and no one dared to report the news to Oldenburg City. Because no one is a fool, not to mention the danger at night, as long as someone is riding a horse towards Oldenburg City, they will definitely be chased.

In this way, Marin brought a total of 100 large shield soldiers, 1,000 musketeers and 3,900 spearmen galloped. It took more than three hours to arrive outside Oldenburg.

According to the previous arrangement, the army quietly walked around the east gate of Oldenburg City. Because during the day, Marin had sent people to declare war, and at this time, he was facing the west gate of the East Frieslander Kingdom, and he must have been the most defensive. Therefore, attacking from the east gate is the best choice.

Then, Malin took the army and rested for an hour far from the east gate, and fed the horses with oats. After that, Malin took out the double-fire firecrackers dedicated to the army and threw one into the sky and exploded... At the same time, everyone got on the horse again...

The 100 East Friesian scouts who had been waiting in the east gate of Oldenburg City immediately flocked out from nearby houses and rushed towards the defenseless defenders of Oldenburg East Gate...

At the same time, Malin's army also began to ride horses and approach the city gate. After arriving outside the city gate, everyone dismounted, handed the horses to a few soldiers to guard, and then began to quickly arrange the array. Among them, 100 large shield soldiers were lined up in the front...

The movement of the army outside the city alarmed the defenders on the city tower. However, when they realized it was too late. Because the 100 scouts who attacked the East City Gate had already opened the East City Gate...

Then, 100 large shield soldiers took the lead and rushed into the city with a shield with a large door panel...

Marin suddenly remembered that the enemy could not be allowed to run away. So he immediately ordered 1,000 subordinates to guard the north gate of Oldenburg to prevent the members of the Oldenburg family from escaping.

There is a river to the south of Oldenburg City and the west is the direction of East Friesland. When the East Gate is broken, the other party is very likely to escape north. Therefore, Marin sent 1,000 people to block people outside the North Gate. In addition, 300 people went to the West Gate. If someone broke through the siege in Ximen, the people sent to Ximen would actively emit double firecrackers and send signals.

At this time, the city of Oldenburg was in chaos. There were only 1,000 defenders in the city, half of which were on the walls, and the other half were protecting the palace in the center of the city. The residents, when they heard the shouts of killing in the middle of the night, did not dare to go out, but were just in a mess at home.

So, at this time, there were no people on the streets of Oldenburg. Therefore, Marin directly led more than three thousand troops to quickly approach the palace...

At this time, John V and other members of the Oldenburg family were awakened:

"What happened? What happened?" John V, who had hurriedly stood up, asked loudly.

"Sir Earl, the East Friesian army is here!" a palace guard shouted anxiously.

"What? So fast? They only issued the war letter during the day..." John V's face was pale. At this time, the Oldenburg army was defenseless, and only the West Gate blocked the gate in the city with things. The other gates were not ready for defense.

John V was still stunned. Marin's army had rushed to the center of the city and quickly completed the encirclement of the palace. In addition, Marin also sent people to control the other three gates. When he learned that the West Gate was blocked by the Oldenburg people with bricks and wood, Marin felt at ease to divide the troops into the north and south gates to seize the gates.

It is very easy to seize the city gate from the city gate, because the other party never thought that it would be attacked behind it. In this way, the North Gate and South Gate were quickly captured, and only some of the defenders of the South Gate escaped from the city and boarded the boats by the Hunter River and fled. However, according to the prisoners, the escaped people were all ordinary soldiers, and members of the Oldenburg family who did not pay attention to Marin.

In fact, members of the Oldenburg family basically live in the palace courtyard and do not have a residence outside the palace. Of course, it is better to say that it is a large castle group than to say that it is a royal palace.

The largest castle in the middle is obviously the residence of John V. The few small castles next to it are all inhabited by John V's tribe. However, for safety, the castles are all within a tall wall and are guarded by a large number of troops.

When the North City Gate was opened, 1,000 people outside the North Gate also came in and participated in the siege of the Oldenburg Palace. In addition to the more than 800 soldiers guarding the other three gates and 300 people outside the West Gate, the remaining 3,800 soldiers surrounded the Oldenburg Palace, which had only 500 people defended, and was in a mess.

The 500 defenders on the city wall surrendered from time to time, tied them down from under the city wall with ropes and fled overnight. After all, they faced 5,000 soldiers. They couldn't win wisely, so how many people were willing to fight to the death? Moreover, the most loyal guards of the Oldenburg Kingdom were all in the palace courtyard...

Thinking of Edsard I's experience of running away from the tunnel, Marin waved to Sauer:

"Sauer, you send some scouts and take a telescope to the outside of the city to guard. If you see a luxuriously dressed person riding a horse, be sure to stay!"

Sauer obviously remembered Edsad I's escape, and immediately arranged 200 scouts to go out to patrol the city on horseback.

But Marin didn't know that because Denmark was the backer, the members of the Oldenburg family had never thought of running away. So, they didn't dig any authentic tunnels. At this time, the members of the Oldenburg family were all in a hurry in the palace...

Marin did not launch an attack at night, but waited until dawn to let Doni Cry's blasting team come forward...

It was still the original recipe. After using engineer shovels to dig up the stone slab in front of the east gate of the palace, the people from the blasting team dug a hole under the gate of the palace and buried a gunpowder barrel...

After a loud bang, the gate of Oldenburg Palace collapsed...

Then, a big shield soldier rushed in with a big shield and hit him with a big shield when he saw someone...

Marin's big bodyguard, Kahn, was also itchy. He put on his armor and carried a mace and killed him in...

As for Marin himself, he did not go deeper, but chose to observe the battle situation with a telescope on the wall of the east gate of the palace.

About two hours later, most of the defenders in the palace were cleared. Only dozens of guards were left, guarding the main castle where John V was located.

"Earl Marin, I am John V. I ask for negotiation! I ask for negotiation!" John V shouted in the castle. He was very scared, afraid of dying like his brother-in-law Edor Wilmken. So he was cowardly and wanted to save his life through negotiation.

When Marin was also happy when he heard John V's cry. This was a war of destruction. You even said that you were negotiating. Do you think I am a vegetarian? Where can I spit out the meat from my mouth?

So Marin ignored him and continued to order the attack.

When Doni Cry's blasting team exploded the gate of the main castle of the palace again, Marin was not in a hurry to attack. He sent people to find a large amount of firewood from the homes of nearby residents, lit it at the gate, and threw it into the castle...

John V was frightened and thought Marin wanted to burn him to death, so he quickly surrendered and demanded the treatment of the noble prisoners.

In fact, Marin just planned to smoke them. However, the castle had a lot of wooden furniture, which was indeed easy to cause fire. No wonder John V misunderstood.

Marin agreed to John V's request to be treated as a noble prisoner. Anyway, he did not intend to kill John V. However, it would be impossible for this man to rule Oldenburg in the future...

Of course, Marin did not rush to talk about the territory, but instead forced John V to sign an order to surrender in Faler. John V refused, and Marin immediately asked Kahn, who was vicious in appearance, to take out a bloody knife and say that he would help him bleed and "treat" the disease...

In desperation, John V had to sign an order to order Farrer's defenders to surrender unconditionally...

After receiving the document, Malin immediately asked Saul to send his subordinates, one by one, two horses, to go outside the city of Faler to find the team led by Stad.

The ones responsible for attacking Farrell were the recruits led by Stad and the 3,000 mercenaries in Hamburg. At the same time, the team also brought a lot of heavy artillery and other supplies.

When Sauer's scouts arrived with the order documents, the army led by Stad had not yet reached the city of Faler. After all, they were walking...
