Chapter 1014: Sword Master "Decrepitude" (Part 1)
"Alan!"
In Alan's tent, Eber roared at Alan.
"Didn't you tell me before that sending 7 armored warriors would be enough to capture Jacob alive?!"
"Now! Answer me! Did Jacob succeed in being captured?!"
Faced with Eber's roar, Alan remained silent.
Although Alan wanted to argue for himself, no matter how he thought about it, Alan couldn't think of any words to argue for himself.
"...I admit it." After a long silence, Alan finally said in a deep voice, "I underestimated Jacob...I didn't expect that Jacob was so old, and he still had such ability..."
"Damn it!"
Abel held his forehead with his hand, gently rubbing his swollen and painful head, while spewing out all the dirty words in Frankish.
"Tonight could have been a very wonderful night..." Eber gritted his teeth.
According to the script that Eber had originally envisioned, the story of tonight should be like this:
Alan summoned the armored warriors he created and trained to launch a mutiny.
Eliminated the knights who would not obey Allen, as well as the uncontrollable troops, such as the Royal Guards.
Captured Ilsa and Jacob alive.
Then completely controlled this army with the Knights of Uriel as the main body, and after two days of rest, marched westward to attack the capital of the Britannia Empire, Pendragon.
As a result, the repeated accidents made this wonderful night for the monarchs and citizens of the Frankish Empire more regretful and made people want to vomit blood.
The first accident: The 15 armored warriors brought by Allen did not succeed in killing Enli.
The second accident: Enli, who broke through the siege, successfully rescued Ilsa and escaped from the camp.
The third accident: The 7 armored warriors sent by Jacob to capture Jacob alive also failed to capture Jacob alive.
The bodies of the 7 armored warriors fell in a mess on the way to the place of detention.
It seems that when they were sending Jacob to the place of imprisonment, Jacob, who did not know how to break free, killed him.
The bodies of these seven people, like the 15 armored warriors who surrounded Enli but were killed by Enli, were all killed in one blow.
The weakly defended face and neck were stabbed to death by the long sword.
After Allen returned to the main tent with Ebel, the two of them learned about Jacob's escape.
After learning the news, the faces of the two became extremely wonderful and extremely ugly again.
Then, Ebel launched extremely ruthless abuse and ridicule on Allen to vent his dissatisfaction.
Faced with these abuses and ridicules from Ebel, Allen could only endure silently.
After all, Jacob's successful escape was indeed a great responsibility for Allen.
After letting Ebel vent his anger and waiting for his mood to improve, Allen finally spoke again:
"Since it has already happened, it is useless for us to regret it.
"
"Jacob can escape, anyway, there is not much value in capturing the prime minister of the Britannia Empire alive."
Hearing Allen's words, Ebel, whose face was still gloomy, finally nodded gently.
"That's true."
After saying that, Ebel turned his head and looked at Allen with sharp eyes.
"Alan, are the cavalry responsible for chasing Enli and Ilsa ready?"
Alan looked at the time on his pocket watch.
"They should be leaving soon."
"But I advise you not to have any hope of recovering Enli and His Majesty... Ilsa."
"We don't know in which direction Enli and Ilsa fled, how far they have fled, or whether they have hidden."
"We send the cavalry to search for them, but it's just like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Before Allen finished speaking, Ebel interrupted him rudely:
"We must find her even if it's like looking for a needle in a haystack!"
"That's the emperor of the Britannia Empire!"
"As long as we can get her back, it's worth it even if 10 Jacobs run away!"
"Bring Ilsa back at all costs!"
...
...
There are only 4 knights who are trusted by Allen and are his confidants.
And these 4 knights are the only 4 who escaped the massacre tonight.
Now, this joint corps composed of the Uriel Knights, the Armored Warriors, and the Royal Guards, including Allen, has only 5 knights left.
The rest of the knights were basically fooled by Allen and then ruthlessly slaughtered.
And Enli was the only knight who managed to escape.
Allen not only cleaned up the knights in the army, but also cleaned up some of the troops that were difficult to control, such as the 4,000 Royal Guards brought by Ilsa.
Allen launched a mutiny tonight with the whole army of the Armored Warriors in the name of "punishing the sinners".
Most of the 4,000 Armored Warriors were transferred to raid the camp where the Royal Guards were located.
The Royal Guards were indeed elite, but in terms of individual combat effectiveness, the Armored Warriors were not worse than them.
Faced with the sudden attack of the Armored Warriors, the Royal Guards, who were completely unprepared, were killed before they even had time to pick up their weapons.
Until the mutiny tonight was over, the generals and soldiers of the Uriel Knights did not know what happened tonight.
The mutiny tonight will certainly not be too noisy. The strange noises during the mutiny made the soldiers of the Uriel Knights extremely panicked, not knowing what was going on.
After the mutiny, Allen's four confidants, the only four knights who survived, began to appease the troops under Allen's orders.
To stabilize the emotions of the soldiers and calm their panic.
At the same time, they also deceived the soldiers, so that they did not know what happened tonight and did not let them know that their commander Allen had betrayed the country and colluded with the enemy.
In addition to Allen, there are only four knights left in the army. The four knights are doing the work of appeasing an army of more than 100,000 people. The workload is terrifying just thinking about it.
Among these four knights, only one is a female knight.
This female knight is named Lucy. She is also the lowest-ranked of the four knights, just a new knight.
The reason why Lucy planned to follow Allen was very simple - she felt that she didn't have much chance of getting promoted in the Britannia Empire anyway, and defecting to the Frank Empire might give her a chance to get a high position that she would never have the chance to get in the Britannia Empire.
The words Lucy said most tonight were:
"Don't panic!"
"This is just a night exercise, don't panic! Go back to the camp and sleep!"
"No noise! No discussion!"
...
In order to appease the emotions of the Knights of Uriel, Lucy shouted until her throat was hoarse.
