Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Okay, open the city gate." Greener laughed loudly, and the flames in the distant sky became more and more obvious.

"Yes." The knight commander said seriously, and after saluting, he took the knight's long sword and quickly walked down the city wall.

"Crunch...boom..."

The city gate opened slowly, and the knights got on their horses. The knights without horses held spears and waited for the city gate to open.

At this time, the great knight Benson stationed outside Yalin City also discovered something was wrong.

"Why hasn't anyone delivered the food yet?" the great knight Benson asked in a deep voice. He has been stationed here for more than ten days.

In order to prevent the food from being intercepted halfway, the No. 3 deacon suggested that the food be delivered at night. Anyway, there are torches to illuminate it. According to the usual time, someone should deliver wheat at this point.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

Behind the temporary camp, war horses quickly approached.

"Lord Benson, it's too bad. There's a fire in the direction of the camp. I'm afraid the whole forest is on fire." The knight fell to the ground, staggered to Benson, and reported panting heavily.

He was the knight in charge of patrolling the surrounding area. After climbing a hill, he saw a fire flickering in the distance, almost burning half of the sky.

"What?" The big knight Benson's expression darkened, he grabbed the collar of the knight in front of him and asked in a low voice.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

"No, Master Benson, the camp is on fire."

"grown ups......"

"Lord Benson, the camp..."

Three knights came galloping on horses one after another, and they all brought the same news. The granary in the camp had probably been burned to ashes, which meant that their grain and food were all gone.

"Damn it, what's going on here?" The great knight Benson was annoyed. Now that the base camp was burned, it was very likely that the food, grass and wheat were gone. How would we fight this battle?

"Master Benson, let's retreat. Without wheat and food, it will be difficult for us to persist even for a day..." Benson's confidant said anxiously.

"This..." Grand Knight Benson hesitated.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

"Master Benson, the gate of Yalin City has been opened." A knight ran over to report.

"What? How dare they?" The great knight Benson said in astonishment, why did he suddenly open the city gate.

"Could it be that the fire in the camp was made by the second prince?"

The great knight Benson's face darkened. He felt that his guess was probably true, otherwise the second prince dared to open the city gate at this time?

"My lord..." the confidant said anxiously.

"Retreat, retreat in the direction of Gennaro City." The great knight Benson drew out the knight's long sword, swung the sword and shouted loudly.

Now the situation is completely chaotic, and there is no way to retreat.

"Yes." All the knights stood up, got on their horses, and began to retreat.

"Hahaha... your wheat is all burned, you just wait to starve to death!!"

The gate of Yalin City opened, and the knight commander led a group of knights to charge, holding torches and spears in their hands.

"Retreat, leave some people behind to block them." The great knight Benson ordered in a deep voice, turned on his horse, and also held a torch and a knight's long sword in his hand.

It is night now, if there is no torch, it is difficult to see the figure of the other party, this is night blindness.

"Tap Tat Tat..."

"Kill!!!" the knight commander shouted, boosting his momentum.

······················································

"Clang clang..."

"Don't love to fight, retreat." The great knight Benson shouted. At this time, many of the knights were in a panic, and the chances of winning if they continued to fight were not high.

"Follow me." The big knight waved the big long sword in his hand and shouted loudly.

"yes."

The knights responded in unison, they have been quite aggrieved during this period of time, being blocked in the city and can only shrink back, now that they have the opportunity to counterattack, every knight is very excited.

"Kill!!!"

"Tap Tat Tat..."

A chasing battle happened like this. Although there were torches in the dark night, the range that could be illuminated was very limited. Some knights rode their horses and directly bumped into the big tree that suddenly appeared, and there was no time to turn.

After chasing for nearly half an hour.

"Stop, stop chasing." The knight commander shouted and stopped.

0 0 0

"My lord, why didn't you chase after him?" A knight asked suspiciously, pulling the reins to quiet the horse under him.

"If we continue to chase, we will annoy the opponent, and we will be the ones who suffer." The knight commander said in a deep voice, looking at the flames slowly appearing in the distance behind him.

Those knights and pirates without horses couldn't keep up with the team with horses at all. If there was a fight, there would be a gap in numbers.

Now the opponent's rear camp was burned, and the flustered attention was diverted, and they just didn't notice it.

"Yes." Many knights responded. .

"Let's go, go back and see what they left behind." The knight commander waved his hand, pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and drove back.

When Qiao Sen met the knight commander, he asked suspiciously, "Huh? Why didn't you suddenly stop chasing him?"

"It's dark, it's inconvenient to move, plus..." the knight commander said a few words, and started to rush back, going to the enemy's temporary camp to see what good things fell.

"..." Qiao Sen patted his head, curled his lips and waved his hands, and led his men back to the same place.

"How is it?" Greener asked after seeing the knight commander come back from the castle of Yalin City, "Did you win?"

"Yes, they retreated..." The knight commander told the story and the reason why he didn't continue to chase.

"Well, it's the right thing to do." Deacon Hong nodded silently.
