Chapter 441: Seize Lianyu City

Even Yucheng has sufficient water sources, and there are thirteen wells near the military camp. Manda is very familiar with the location of these thirteen wells and has a certain degree of precision in the dosage. The largest well needs to be a sack, and the smallest well is enough to grab two. The thirteen wells have all been put into medicine, and all six bags of powder have been used up.

After taking the medicine, Manda took back her clone and returned to the camp exhausted. She entered the camp tent and fell asleep. These medicine powders could support the day and would have to continue tomorrow night.

Not long after, it was dawn, Dwight opened his eyes, and after a night of sleep, he felt his guilt slowly disappear.

This is how war is. Everyone thinks they are the right side, but only the winner can define everything.

They said that Bucken murdered the Archbishop, is this important? Bucken is now the legal Archbishop of Romland!

They said that the God-Punisher should not kill each other, yes, I think so too. You get out of here immediately, this is not considered killing each other!

They said that the Holy Messenger Wilkins was also recognized by the Pope, so what? Barker didn't say he didn't recognize him! Now he is taking the initiative to attack the capital, why is he still shameless and wins sympathy?

Dwight stood up and moved his shoulders, muttering to himself: "Why do I feel guilty!"

He put on his robe: "I fight for the Pope, I fight for the Lord, and this is my duty."

He combed his hair and checked the scars on his face: "Today I will not show mercy to anyone. If they dare to approach the city wall again, I will smash them into meat paste with a stone throwing cart. If any soldier is lazy, I will peel him directly on the city wall!"

Dwight ate a large piece of bread, a sausage, and drank a can of water.

He wiped his mouth, sighed, and heard the chant outside the city wall again.

As soon as I hear this hymn, I can think of Howet. Although I haven't seen each other for a long time, his appearance is still so clear.

Dwight was an orphan. He had been begging for a living before he was ten years old. On a snowy night, he didn't get anything and couldn't find any firewood. He was almost frozen to death in the abandoned temple at the entrance of the village.

He met Hovet, who gave him food and took him to the Holy Kingdom of Heaven. He had originally let him into the choir, but when he was thirteen, he chose the military camp.

At that time, Leo appeared, only six or seven years old, but became a student of Howet. Dwight was so angry that he wanted to prove himself in the military camp.

More than twenty years later, Dwight became a famous general. He forgot to prove something to Howet. He seemed to have forgotten his existence. Except for occasionally meeting in the Holy Kingdom and smiling at each other, they seemed to have no intersection between them.

Perhaps Howitt was not that important in his heart, he just brought himself into the church.

Dwight had a dry mouth, drank another can of water, put on an iron helmet, and walked towards the city.

Along the way, the soldiers were praying in the morning and they were confessing.

Dwight tried his best to avoid their voices, but after two steps, tears suddenly wet his eyes.

He forgot me...

He forgot that I should be.

But why did I forget him?

He gave me some food.

Give me clothes.

Without him, I'm just a little bastard, I'm just a little bastard, I'm frozen to death, a little bastard...

In the sudden heavy rain, Dwight hurried in the corner of the city, crying indescribable voice.

A thousand-man commander followed him and shed tears. The thousand-man commander was very brave. In the battle the day before yesterday, he killed more than 40 enemies with his own hands, but at the end of the battle, he was accidentally captured by Leo alive.

I thought Leo would kill him, but Leo let him go, so secretly that no one knew that he had been captured.

From returning to Lianyu City, this thousand-man captain felt like he had lost his soul.

Hearing Dwight's crying, he also cried.

"We are brothers, I won't hurt you..." This is what Leo said to him.

"But I hurt you, my brother..." This is the words of the leader himself.

After drinking a jar of water, the commander drew his sword and committed suicide.

...

Leo sang a song for a day and did not siege the city. He was not in a hurry. He felt that he would definitely be able to break through Lianyu City within ten days.

As a result, he overestimated Dwight, which didn't take ten days, only two days.

Two days later, a centurion opened the city gate after praying in the morning.

There were only two storage workers trying to stop him, one died at the hands of the centurion and the other died at the hands of the soldiers guarding the city.

The city guards knelt down on the spot to the centurion: "Sir, I have wanted to do this for a long time, but I don't have the courage. Thank you for helping me."

The centurion and the soldiers hugged each other and cried, and were finally dragged away from Lianyu City by Dwight.

Lian Yucheng was lost, to be precise, there was no defense at all, so Dwight chose to abandon the city directly.

He suspected that the city was cursed, and sometimes he felt that the city was blessed by the Lord.

Every time he cried, he felt the pain brought by sin and the joy brought by salvation.

...

After conquering Lianyu City, Bruto finally didn't have to boil the complicated medicine powder every day. He couldn't understand what Manda and Leo thought. Since Manda could poison the well water, why didn't he directly put the poison and poison the other party?

Manda patiently explained: "There are three reasons. One is that truly colorless and odorless poison is too rare and difficult to boil in large quantities. However, the poison of repentance just meets these two conditions, and even a nose as smart as me cannot detect it.

Second, as long as someone or animal is poisoned to death, the enemy will immediately find that the well water is poisonous and will be strictly guarded, but the poison of repentance almost makes people feel that they are poisoned.

Third, Dwight needs to live, and this person is useful to survive."

Bruto wondered: "What's the use of letting him survive?"

Manda smiled and said, "This is Leo's idea. He wants to create a legend."

"The Legend of the Lonely Shadow Legion?"

Manda shook her head and said, "The legend of Archbishop Howet, he is the eternal Archbishop. He has infected Dwight with the Lord's sacred light, and asked him to put down his weapons and give up Lianyu City."

Bruto pursed his lips for a long time and couldn't speak.

In the end, he only said: "It seems that Dwight is dead."

Manda shrugged, "It depends on his luck. If he doesn't want to die, he can also join the arms of the Holy Archbishop."

While speaking, a soldier was fetching water in the well. Bruto stepped forward and stopped drinking, "Wait a minute, that water cannot be drunk."

Manda glared at Bruto and signaled him not to speak out.

The soldier looked at Bruto and said, "Why can't you drink?"

Bruto slammed for a while and said, "Water, boil it, drink it better."

...

That night, a grand celebration ceremony was held in Lianyu City, and lords from all walks of life from the south drank happily to celebrate this great victory together.

Besaliu changed his view of Manda. He no longer hated Manda and even admired him a little.

He wanted to take this opportunity to have a good chat with Manda, but he didn't expect that Manda would be worried about the whole banquet.

After the banquet, Manda sat in the castle garden and drank with a slut. Bessaliu walked up to him, sat beside him, and asked with the care of the elder, "Are there any trouble?"

Manda shook her head.

"If you have anything to say, we are allies and we should keep trust with each other."

Besaliu asked repeatedly, and Manda finally expressed her thoughts: "Everything I did is for our final victory."

"I am loyal to Your Majesty, to you, to the Minister of Government, and have no selfish thoughts."

Besa flown said: "I agree with this."

"Do you really agree with me?" Manda's eyes were wet, "You have always doubted my loyalty."

Looking at the tears in Manda's eyes, Besa Liu suddenly felt his nose sour.

"Child, when you reach my age, you will understand a truth. It is not easy to gain someone's trust."

"Sir, can I still not gain your trust now?"

Besaliu's eyes were also wet: "You have gained my trust."

"Sir, can't I prove my loyalty even if I have done for you?"

Besaliu said with a trembling voice: "No one can question your loyalty."

"Sir, we will no longer have suspicion or doubts, right?"

"Of course not! Forget those unpleasant pasts!" Besa's tears fell, and he didn't know why it was so easy to be excited tonight.
