Duke Mason asked his soldiers to display the flags and shields seized by Sir Eble under the castle. When these colorful shields appeared under the castle, the guardians of the castle stopped shooting archery. Many of them could recognize the heralds on these shields, which belonged to the knights of the Duke of Saxony, Earl Berengal, and it was precisely because of knowing the heralds of these shields that caused a commotion among the soldiers guarding the castle. You must know that the flags of the nobles in this era were honored.

The symbol of glory, and the heraldic shield is also a glory that the knight cannot give up at will. It can only be seized by the enemy when defeated. Now the flag of Count Berengal and the heraldic shield of his knights appear, and the information is clearly told to the people in the castle. Their reinforcements Count Berengal was defeated. Count Berengal has the title of wolves cunning and good at fighting in the Principal of Saxony. Now this former honor can only bring panic to the castle guardians at this time.

"Go and find the Earl of Ulrissi." The knight commanding on the top of the castle wall saw the flag of Count Berengal and some of the knight's heraldic shields he was familiar with. He knew that those heraldic shields were real. Earl Berengal's failure means that the enemy's reinforcements have also arrived. How good can one side have to guard the castle?

"It's the Lord." An archer holding a short bow and wearing a thick linen shirt and trousers hurriedly ran to the tower in the castle. Göttingen Castle is a medium-sized fortress located on the hills. Four steeply-topped arrow towers are distributed in four directions. There are also small corner towers around the corner of the city wall. There are some bakery shops, textile shops and blacksmith shops in the castle against the walls. This medium-sized castle can accommodate one hundred civilians on a weekday. These civilians provide services to the nobles in the tower in the center of the castle. Because the castle space is limited, the streets in the castle are very narrow. The wooden attics on both sides are tied together with linen ropes, and many civilian clothes are placed on the ropes.

"What happened?" When the archer ran into the tower at a rapid speed, Count Ulrissi was wearing his chain mail. The outside of the chain mail was his purple blouse. He knelt in the corner northeast of the tower hall, where was a cross hanging on the wall. Below the cross was a prayer table made of oak. The surface of the prayer table was brown, and the thick wood was carved with fine sculptures of knights, angels and other sculptures. The carpenter's workmanship was attentive. The sculptured knight was riding a war horse, and the war horse was spreading four hooves under his crotch, as if he was galloping wildly. The fully armed knight held a spear and seemed to stab the gun forward, while the angels above looked down curiously from the clouds.

The Count Ulrisey was kneeling in front of the prayer table, holding his hands and placing his elbows on the prayer table. He was praying devoutly to the Lord of Heaven. The archers' urgent footsteps sounded in the hall of the tower, interrupting his inner peace. So the Count Ulrisey frowned in dissatisfaction and asked loudly.

"Please go to the city wall and take a look." The archer walked to the Earl of Ulrisey, and he said to the Earl of Ulrisey with an anxious tone.

"The jackals under Duke Mason attacked?" Earl Ulrisey's face changed drastically. He stood up and put his hands unconsciously on his waist, but he forgot that when he was praying, his sword was handed over to his servants to keep.

"No, it was the flag of Count Berengal who was seized by the Masons." The archer swallowed, and felt a little thirsty in his throat, and ran down the wall and ran all the way to the tower.

"Impossible." Earl Ulriss shook his head. He did not believe the news. He and Earl Berengal were vassals of the Duke of Saxony for decades. When it comes to war, no one is more cunning and good at fighting than Earl Berengal.

However, when Earl Ulrisy walked up to the city wall, he saw the flag of Earl Berengal with his own eyes. He unconsciously put his hand on his chest and drew a cross. The scene in front of him really surprised him. The battle flag of Earl Berengal was inserted between a pile of heraldic shields. This was the naked threat of Duke Mason.

"Sir Earl, will Saxon come to rescue us?" Seeing the appearance of the Earl of Ulrisey, the knights asked the Earl, while the other soldiers looked at them with their weapons, their ears erected their ears to get the Earl's answer.

"Of course, the Duke's army will come to rescue us soon, so we must stick to the Duke's arrival and never let the damn Mason jackal step into the castle." Earl of Ulrisey actually didn't know when the Duke of Saxony would come to rescue us, but as a great nobleman with a fief, he knew that he had to remain calm at this time, otherwise these people might do something unfavorable to him in panic.

"It's great, Lord Saxony will definitely defeat these Masons." After hearing the words of Count Ulrisey, everyone settled down. The most feared thing for those who were besieged was that there were no reinforcements outside. The granary built by the castle last spring, the pile of wheat and various food was also the main reason why everyone had the courage to survive the siege.

"Knight, lift the tongs and boil water inside, then take out nails, hammers and crane-mouth military hoe." Earl Ulrisey is worthy of being a military noble who is good at defending. He orders his subordinates in an orderly manner, and pour boiling water into the tongs and pour it down when the enemy climbs up on a ladder. Whether it is a light infantry wearing thin armor or a knight wearing chain mail, they will burn their skin and flesh.

The most terrifying thing in the siege battle is the knights wearing heavy armor. These strong and full of fighting passion are the opponents that the city defenders fear the most, because ordinary swords and spears cannot effectively attack them, so only nail hammers and crane-mouth military hoes can be used to deal with the knights.

"My monarch, it seems that the people in Göttingen Castle do not intend to surrender." The adjutant beside Duke Mason looked at the busy Saxons on the top of the city and said to his monarch Duke Mason.

"Go and send someone to ask." Duke Mason raised his eyes and pointed his fingers at the opposite side. The scheming duke felt that he should find a way to weaken the enemy's will to defend the city, so he decided to persuade him.

"Fight or surrender." A knight holding a white flag in his hand, wearing a mail and a helmet that could uncover the mask, rushed to the place where he was a few steps down the castle, raised the white flag in his hand to indicate that he was a messenger without malice, and then drove the war horse under his crotch and turned around in circles, shouting loudly to the guardians on the castle.

"Go and eat shit, damn Mason jackal." At this time, Earl Ulrisy showed his half-bald head from the city. He held the battlements of the castle with both hands and cursed loudly at the Mason messenger under the city wall. The knights and soldiers around Earl Ulrisy burst into laughter.

"Hold it~~~." The knight glanced at the Earl of Ulrisy above, turned the head of the war horse under his crotch, and rode his horse in the direction he came.

"Prepare to attack." When Duke Mason heard the vulgar cursing of Count Ulris in Göttingen Castle, he became gloomy. He was so insulted that he simply did not take himself seriously. He decided to kill Count Ulris with his own hands. With the order of the Duke, sword-holding soldiers wearing cloth inlaid with iron armor, a large number of light infantrymen, and cannon fodder servants holding ladders rushed towards the castle like dense ants.

"Up, up, don't retreat." In the attacking troops, knights wearing helmets decorated with colorful feathers or various sculptures, they waved their swords in their hands to act as commanders at the grassroots level. If any soldier wants to retreat, they will be beaten by the knights, or even pierced by a sword. Under the high pressure of the knights, the soldiers could only climb up the ladder and rushed upwards. During the charge, people fell from above like rain. Archers on both sides shot desperately, and arrows passed by people like locusts.

The experienced sergeant inserted the sword into the scabbard, holding a shield on one hand to cover the arrows and stones on the city wall, and climbing up with the ladder with the other hand. His companion was under his butt, so he could only climb up without any room to retreat. He could hear the screams of human beings from time to time, and he could only turn a deaf ear to him, praying silently in his heart for the blessing of the Virgin. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the shield he was holding was very hot, and a lot of boiling water flowed down from the edge of the shield. The boiling water splashed on him, and the inlaid iron sheets could not resist the temperature of the boiling water at all. The boiling water exposed to the clothes and the permeated skin made him extremely painful. In the severe pain, he lost his rationality and threw away the shield and fell from the ladder.

The boiling water from the tongs poured down, causing a commotion in the attacking team. The scalded people rolled on the ground with their faces covered, and the unscalded people screamed and retreated one after another. Taking this opportunity, several ladders were pushed down by the guardians of Göttingen Castle. The Mason soldiers who were still on top made a scream and jumped down in the air, and eventually broke their legs.
