Chapter 548 Falcon City (Part 1)

Falcon City is located at the northernmost end of the Fierce Flame Leader and is also a must-pass place to enter the center of the empire from the north.

The sky was extremely gloomy in the afternoon, as if it was going to rain, but it never got up.

The air is dull and humid, and it can almost twist out water.

As a huge dark cloud swept over, the sky of Falcon City seemed even darker, and it felt like a storm was coming and wind filled the building.

In the desolate world, the sound of spring thunder suddenly sounded, and the earth seemed to be shaken by a beating war drum, constantly undulating and shaking.

The whistling north wind blew the flags rising from the horizon, and teams of cavalry lined up in neat rows, sweeping across the wilderness, and in a blink of an eye, the Falcon City surrounded.

The walls of Falcon City are not particularly tall, but they are quite wide and continuous, built around the hills behind the city, filled with fully armed soldiers.

However, after seeing the bloody flag of the cavalry outside the city, these soldiers were sweating coldly, and did not feel that the condescending geographical conditions they were in could provide much security.

After all, that's a blood cavalry!

The ice field in the sky and ravage the entire eastern territory, and the blood cavalry that is invincible and invincible!

Viscount Benson, the lord of the Falcon City, stood at the top of the city, his face pale.

Although he had already concentrated all his family troops on the city wall and was ready for battle, he also summoned a large number of reserve troops to stand by in the city.

But he did not arrogantly think that if the people from the North wanted to attack Falcon City, the Benson family could really defend it.

This blood cavalry alone has made Viscount Benson's legs weak, not to mention that a thin black line has appeared on the northern horizon - that is obviously the subsequent northern army.

The 200,000 northern army, who were originally planning to support the western border, have now changed their route toward Yulong City.

Viscount Benson had no intention of resisting at all. He only hoped that this northern army would ignore Falcon City and continue to go south... But unfortunately, judging from the current situation, it seemed that the people in the northern territory did not intend to bypass Falcon City just like this.

As time goes by, the black lines on the horizon gradually spread, forming a black tide with no edges.

Countless flags waving in the wind covered the sky and the heavy footsteps made the earth moan overwhelmed.

The wind suddenly stopped, and the already depressed air suddenly became even more stagnant, making people breathless.

Whoosh!

A feather arrow shot from outside the city and penetrated straight into the cracks in the stone wall at the top of the city.

The attendant quickly stepped forward and pulled out the arrow, took out the parchment roll tied to the tail of the arrow, and respectfully sent it to Viscount Benson.

Viscount Benson took it with a dark face. When he opened it, he found that it was indeed a letter of surrender.

The content in the letter is also very concise, so concise that Viscount Benson felt humiliated.

"Subdue, or, die!"

There was no just accusation of the Pope of guilt, nor a boast about the might of the Northern Army, but simply put the only two choices in front of Viscount Benson, without a single nonsense.

Oh, and there is also a signature - Garcia St. Hield.

Well, Viscount Benson had also heard of the temperament of this Northern Marquis. He knew that the other party was not deliberately targeting the Benson family, but in his eyes, most of the families were not worth his waste of writing...

With a sigh, Viscount Benson ordered wisely:

"Open the city gate."

The messenger beside him was obviously relieved, as if he was not angry at his lord's behavior of surrendering without fighting, but was very grateful.

As the huge winch made a squeaking sound, the thick steel gate slowly landed on the ground.

At this time, Viscount Benmori had already realized the reality, and his face became much more relaxed. When the city gate was completely opened, he took the initiative to greet him alone.

"I am the Lord of Falcon City, Viscount Benson, may I ask..."

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to this Viscount Benson. Teams of blood cavalry soldiers rode their horses by him with expressionless faces and rushed into the Falcon City.

Since the lord had made a clear statement of surrender, the soldiers in the city did not dare to resist at all, and obediently surrendered.

However, Viscount Benson outside the city was left there, which seemed a little embarrassed and pitiful...

"You are Viscount Benson?"

A clear voice saved Viscount Benson. He quickly followed the sound and saw a young knight in bright red armor slowly walking towards him on a white horse.

"Yes." Viscount Benson nodded and responded, then recognized the [Roaring White Bear] badge on the other party's armor, quickly turned over and dismounted, bowed and said, "You must be the guardian of the North, the Earl of Angeles?"

"Yes. This time I'm going to the place with you, I hope Viscount Benson, you don't mind too much."

"Of course not!" Viscount Benson's smile unconsciously brought some flattery, "Earl of Angeles, I have actually admired you for a long time. Now that I have come to Falcon City, I will only feel extremely honored!"

"That's good." Colin nodded with a smile, then walked into the city.

Viscount Benson seemed to think that Colin's attitude was quite gentle, so he relaxed at this time and quickly got on his horse and followed him.

When the two entered Falcon City side by side, the streets in the city were already covered with soldiers from the Blood Cavalry.

The Benson family's army was disarmed and was driven to be placed in a certain place to guard, while the residents of Falcon City rushed back home.

However, there were still many curious residents secretly looking through the gaps in the windows and looking at the uninvited guests from the north.

"Sir Earl, is Marquis Garcia behind?"

"Yes, he will enter the city after he has settled his army."

"Okay, I'll have someone arrange the biggest dinner immediately to entertain distinguished guests from the north!"

Colin looked at Viscount Benson with a flattering smile next to him deeply, and thought this person was quite interesting.

Logically speaking, Falcon City had been taken over by the Blood Cavalry Army at this time, but Viscount Benson still acted as a master, as if this was his territory, and the northern army was just a group of passers-by.

Perhaps in Viscount Benson's view, the military operation of the North Frontier mobilization may still be mainly intimidation, with the purpose of forcing the Pope to apologize or even abdicate, but it should not really cause large-scale civil strife.

Colin had no explanation for this, but just walked forward silently.

Until he passed by the central church in Falcon City, Colin suddenly stopped.

The church gate is closed, obviously this group of visitors from the north is not welcome.

Seeing this, Viscount Benson was worried and was about to step forward to calm the atmosphere. Unexpectedly, before he could speak, he heard Colin directly order:

"Crash the door!"

"yes!"

The soldiers of the Blood Cavalry Army even took the order without hesitation.

Bang!

With the huge impact, the thick wooden door instantly shattered.
