The area near the north gate of White Dew City had become a meat mill.
Countless soldiers of the Sky Horse Legion rushed up one after another, trying to regain control of the north gate. However, the army of the Nichol Family firmly occupied the gate tower and repelled the attacks of the Sky Horse Legion again and again.
Although the Sky Horse Legion was in the city at this time, to recapture the north gate tower was no less than a siege battle. It was ironic.
Under such circumstances, the Sky Horse Legion would leave behind countless corpses for every step they took.
A dense rain of arrows continued to fall from the top of the city, shooting down the soldiers of the Sky Horse Legion one by one. If it were not for the military judge at the back, the rebuilt Sky Horse Legion would have been defeated and fled.
However, the army of the Nichol Family on the opposite side was not having a good time either. They were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and this battle was inexplicable. Many soldiers did not know why they were fighting with the Sky Horse Legion, and they were all in a trance.
Therefore, the two sides were like chickens pecking at each other. For a while, they were evenly matched, and it was hard to tell who was worse.
On the gate tower, the Earl Of Avon looked at the direction of the camp of the Blood Cavalry outside the city, and he became more and more anxious.
"What's going on? Didn't the guards of the Northern Frontier just escape? Why is the Blood Cavalry not moving? "
Earl Nichol opened his mouth, but he did not know how to answer this question.
He had a bad feeling in his heart, but he also knew that he had no way out now. He could only follow the Earl Of Avon to the end.
The Earl Of Avon stared at the darkness in the distance, as if he wanted to see the situation in the camp of the Blood Cavalry through the darkness.
However, it was obviously in vain.
The dark night shrouded everything in an unknown fog. The Earl Of Avon was doomed to rely on guessing to determine the possible movements of the Blood Cavalry.
After a long silence, the Earl Of Avon's expression changed and he suddenly said,
"Do you think we have overestimated the status of Colin Angele in the Blood Cavalry?"
Earl Nichol was stunned and said, "You mean, the Blood Cavalry does not care about the life and death of Colin Angele?"
"Yes!" The Earl Of Avon's eyes were shining as if he had seen through everything. "Think about it carefully. Colin Angele has only taken over the Bloody Cavalry for more than a year. In such a short time, no matter how powerful he is, it is impossible for him to completely remove the brand left by Marquis García!
We've always mistakenly thought that Colin Angele was the soul of this army, but what if he's just an ostensible commander, and the real commander is someone else? "
Count Nicol rubbed his chin and nodded in agreement.
"That is indeed a possibility. After all, the Angele family was just a small baron, and they could not afford to raise a cavalry. Colin Angele knew nothing about cavalry before he met Marquis García.
Then, how could he become a genius cavalry commander after following Marquis García to the Sky Icefield?
So, it is very likely that he is not the commander of the Bloody Cavalry all the time! "
"Not only is he not the commander, but the Bloody Cavalry does not really belong to Colin Angele!" The Earl Of Avon added, with excitement in his words, "Marquis García or the House of Saint Hilde is the real owner of this cavalry!
So, when the news of Colin Angele's death spread out, the Bloody Cavalry did not come to the city to avenge him as we expected.
This undoubtedly shows that the Bloody Cavalry is not really loyal to Colin Angele. So, when he died, the Bloody Cavalry did not go crazy, but wanted to retreat. "
"Then what should we do?" Earl Nichol frowned and did not know what to do. "If the Bloody Cavalry does not enter the city, the army of the Nichol family alone cannot stop the Sky Horse Troop!"
The Earl Of Avon's eyes flashed with dangerous light and said coldly,
"If the Bloody Cavalry does not enter the city, we will lure them in!"
"How?"
"Of course, we will create more chaos!"
"More chaos?"
"Yes." The Earl Of Avon's face became a little ferocious. "The Bloody Cavalry is not moving now, which means that they are also hesitating.
Even if they are not really loyal to Colin Angele, he is the Earl of the Empire, the guardian of the Northern Frontier, and the husband of the Duke Of St. Hilde. His identity is very noble.
He died in the White Dew City. If the Bloody Cavalry just left, they would not be able to face the accountability of the Duke Of St. Hilde.
So, they really want to enter the city, but they are afraid that it will be another trap like last time.
Then, we will make the city really chaotic, so that the Bloody Cavalry will completely dispel their doubts and rush in. "
Earl Nichol opened his eyes wide and reminded hesitantly,
"Earl Of Avon, don't you worry that the situation will be completely out of control?"
"So what?" The Earl Of Avon replied without hesitation, "I will not hesitate to turn the White Dew City into ruins!"
Earl Nichol looked at the Earl Of Avon in horror, as if he had a new understanding of the second son of the Duke of the Eastern Region.
The Earl Of Avon smiled faintly and said indifferently, "Why are you so excited? It is not the first time that the White Dew City has been turned into ruins.
Furthermore, after the previous destruction, the rebuilt White Dew City had become even bigger and more prosperous. Presumably, the next time it was rebuilt, it would only be better.
Just like a phoenix reborn in fire, destruction is to welcome a new life.
Now the Eastern Region needs such a new life! "
Earl Nichol was silent for a long time, and his eyes finally became firm, as if he had made up his mind.
He asked, "Earl Of Avon, how do you plan to make the White Dew City really chaotic? I am afraid that the army of the Nichol Family alone is not enough, right? "
The Earl Of Avon took a deep breath, looked at the castle standing in the center of the White Dew City, and said in a deep voice,
"I want to go to the White Dew Castle myself!"
Earl Nichol's expression changed, and he advised, "Earl Of Avon, it is not a good idea for you to go back to the White Dew Castle at this time."
"I have to go." The Earl Of Avon's eyes were firm, "You also know that the Nichol Family alone cannot make the whole White Dew City chaotic. I have to win the support of more lords of the Eastern Region. As long as their army in the city is on our side, it is possible to suppress the Pegasus Legion.
So I have to go!
You don't have to worry about me. At this time, mother is in a terrible state because of Colin Angelo's death, she may not have the time to take care of me. "
Earl Nichol reminded him again.
"Earl Of Avon, even if the Duchess does not have time to take care of you, at this time, if you enter the White Dew Castle alone, how confident are you that you can persuade the lords to follow you?"
The Earl Of Avon smiled confidently, "I don't have much confidence, but what if the two Highnesses are involved?"
"The two Highnesses?" Earl Nichol's eyes lit up, "You mean Prince Harrison and Princess Judy?"
"Yes! Colin Angelo was their teacher. As long as I can see them, it is not difficult to make them blame the mistress of the White Dew Castle for their teacher's death.
What's more, the royal family has always been on the opposite side of the church. If I promise to draw a clear line between the Eastern Region and the church, then do you think the two Highnesses will help me deal with mother?
With the support of Prince Harrison and Princess Judy, if I stand out and persuade the lords of the Eastern Region, I have a 70% to 80% chance of success! "
Earl Nichol nodded, but his face was still worried, "It does make sense, but … the risk is great …"
"What is there without risk?" The Earl Of Avon said firmly, "If I miss this opportunity, I will never be the Duke of the Eastern Region!"
Earl Nichol gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice,
"Good! I will arrange for someone to escort you away! "
