Chapter 321 Take off the Sultan's head
The rain gradually diminishes, the fog fades, and the morning light has not yet shines on the east.
Outside the gate of Erzurumsi, an isolated figure stood quietly.
His long sword pointed to the ground diagonally, and there were still undry blood marks on the sharp blade, reflecting a cold luster in the faint morning light.
Due to the light problem, Sultan Suleiman couldn't see the other person's face clearly, and only felt that the man was tall and the long sword in his hand was a little bigger than the ordinary half-handed sword.
Indeed, the man was not wearing armor, as if he was unprepared.
But Suleiman felt that the murderous aura as sharp as a knife was spreading from the man's body.
After all, behind this man, there were sporadic corpses on the streets covered by rain, and blood and rain merged into deep red puddles, indicating the killing that had just happened.
Far further away, chaotic shouts echoed in the alleys of Erzurum, and the fire vaguely reflected the outline of the city wall, proving that the turmoil in the city was still continuing.
The Sultan's personal guards noticed the uneasiness. They subconsciously tightened the reins, adjusted the formation, and moved closer to each other.
During this period the wind whimpered, and a dull sense of oppression echoed in the air.
Now, in Erzurum City, there is a lot of shouting and killing, and Sultan Suleiman has no way of knowing how many people are rioting.
There is no way to determine whether the strength of his troops is good or bad. He only made a point of certainty that every time he stayed in the city for an extra quarter of an hour, the risk would double.
After all, Erzurum is not his territory, and the residents of the city may still be safe and secure.
Once there is actually a connection, and when the matter is carried out together during the day, what should he do?
Judging from the current movement, Suleiman II felt that even if he suppressed the subjects of the riots, he could not stop the Georgians outside the other party from working together inside and outside.
Erzurum's fall is almost a foregone conclusion. For his own survival, he must escape from the prison that traps him.
Before that, he must also solve the sudden obstacle in front of him.
On the other side, Gerris has indeed been waiting here for a long time.
Different to what Suleiman Sultan thought, the total number of soldiers on Gerris' side was not actually large in this riot today.
No matter how Gerris connects, his troops are basically dominated by Aladdin's soldiers.
The total total is only nearly a thousand, less than one-sixth of the soldiers under the Sudanese.
But with mental arithmetic but unintentional situations, these nearly a thousand soldiers were able to complete surprise attacks on various key areas in the city and control various traffic routes.
In the chaotic situation where the soldiers under the Sudan command cannot communicate with each other and understand their respective situations, Gerris has a complete information transmission system.
In this way, Gerris and others could create a lot of panic, forcing the Sudanese army to gather.
But this situation will not last long. When dawn comes and light comes back to Erzurum City, the haunted army Emir will realize that their opponents are not large.
Once they start counterattacking, even local blind action can actually break the blockade of the people on Garys' side.
So, Gerris must seize the Sultan as soon as possible and force all the troops in the city to stop resisting.
At this point, both sides have reasons to take down each other, so they didn't talk nonsense and the war was about to break out.
A lightning flashed across the sky, and the sudden light shone out the number of people behind Garys.
At this moment, Suleiman breathed a sigh of relief. The number of opponents was not large, and all of them were only a dozen people, and they were all infantry and had never rode a horse.
But it was at this moment that the man at the intersection slowly raised the sword and pointed it at them.
In an instant, heavy rain rose again, and the bean-sized raindrops hit the armor, making a crisp sound.
The tranquility of the moment was broken, and the Sultan's personal guard leader waved his hand, and someone rode his horse forward and headed straight for Gerris.
It was also at this moment that Gerry moved.
His steps stepped on the rain, bringing out subtle splashes, and then turned into a thunderous charge.
A cold light was drawn in the air by the blade. Before it approached, the riders felt a cold wind blowing towards them.
The first soldier had almost no time to react. As soon as he raised his spear, Gerris's sword light had already slashed!
Puchi—!
The sharp blade slid into the neck, like a cloth being cut, bringing up a scarlet blood thread.
The soldier's head was raised backwards, and blood splashed out, dyeing the rain curtain red.
Geris did not pause, took a step forward, grabbed the body that was about to fall with his left hand, and pushed forward with force, just blocking the second rider who rushed towards him!
The war horse was frightened and neighed, and the soldiers were caught off guard. The spear rubbed against Gerris' shoulder and stabbed the air, but Gerris had already gone around him, and his long sword was wiped horizontally with his backhand!
Another puff...
The sharp blade broke through the soft armor and cut into the ribs, and warm blood sprayed on the back of Garys's hand.
The man groaned, and fell from the horse's back and fell heavily into the mud and water.
The rain is getting heavier.
The third knight was approaching, and he roared and waved his sword, trying to cut off Gerris' head.
But he was too slow.
Geris turned slightly, and the scimitar swept across his shoulders with the sound of the wind, but he never touched him. Meanwhile, Gerris' sword suddenly lifted from bottom to top, stabbing into the knight's abdomen.
The blood mist suddenly bloomed!
All this happened in just a short moment.
The Sultan's personal guards looked at the scene in horror, climbing up their backs in fear.
Of course, even Suleiman himself was stunned.
What he didn't know was that it was Gerris who deliberately slowed down his speed in order to let them see their movements clearly.
Otherwise, it would only be a flash of lightning, creating countless corpses.
Compared with humans, Gerris is the god who created death.
"Kill him!" Sultan shouted.
The remaining guards finally came back to their senses and drew their swords to the top. They formed a semi-arc, trying to surround Gerris.
But, is this really a surround?
The guards who were trying to rush up felt inexplicably as they stared at Garys' eyes.
Although there is only one person on the other side, it seems that they are surrounded.
It's like to verify their ideas.
Faced with the bright blade.
Geris is not only not afraid, but instead shouts: "Sulaiman!"
There was irresistible pressure in the prophet's voice. "Your end of the world is here, now, immediately, come out of the crowd!" "Otherwise, you will all die."
Geris's threat is simple and unpretentious.
Suleiman, who changed into civilian costumes, was indeed difficult for him to easily distinguish. But as long as everyone present was killed, Suleiman would not be able to escape no matter what.
Geris was not a murderer, and he gave the other party a chance to survive.
As long as someone is willing to identify who Suleiman is, or Suleiman takes the initiative to stand up.
Then these personal guards can survive until dawn.
…
It was raining in the sky, and blood was filled with David Southland's nasal cavity.
At dawn, he had already received the news about the shocking changes in the city of Erzurum.
The blood in the city was washing away the streets left by the Romans. The ancients, a thousand years ago, never thought that the empire that they ruled the world was still killed by pagans?
Originally full of momentum and full of confidence, facing David, who was still chatting and laughing, after hearing the news in the city, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
If everything is as Gerris said, then this year's war will end here, and even the tens of thousands of troops under his command can return to Georgia to complete the autumn harvest.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
If Gerris fails, the war will also end here.
But in that case, the land occupied previously would return to the authority of the Rom Sultan because of the city of Erzurum.
It means that this battle was in vain.
He has ordered the gathering of troops. If there is no clear news in the city, then he will lead his troops and seize the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Erzurum City.
At this moment, he couldn't help but hesitate.
Just as hundreds of elite soldiers gathered in Georgia, the autumn night rain stopped completely under the light of the morning light.
It seemed like a coincidence that when the rain stopped completely, the dark clouds dissipated slightly, and the sun shone straight to the earth, Erzurum's gate was pushed open.
In front of the Georgian sentry outside the city, there was a Frank man walking out of the city with his head.
His boots were stained with a lot of blood, leaving a scarlet footprint behind him.
When this scene was conveyed to David's ears by the Georgian sentry, his originally hanging heart finally fell.
After this, a temporary meeting took place in David's tent.
A simple table was placed between Garys and David. This table was originally intended to be placed with maps, military orders, seals, etc.
However, now there is a head.
David couldn't help but look at it again and again. He had met Suleiman II twice and was quite familiar with his appearance.
Therefore, he was 100% sure that this head was the one that originally grew up on Suleiman II's body.
David was a little scared. He didn't understand how Gerris did it?
Is this man killed all the Turkic people in the city alone? !
Or, he broke into the Sultan mansion alone and took off the head of the most noble man in Anatolia under the siege of hundreds of personal guards?
Anyway, Gerris declared one thing that no one in this world can't be killed.
This seems to be the same for David.
When thinking of Hovanis describing the scene of many arrows surrendering to Gerris at that time, David couldn't help but guess how many "miracles" Gerris could show.
The unknown creates horror, and the unknown creates fear.
Before Gerris spoke to explain the process during the period, even if the two of them were in the David barracks.
Even though Gerris came alone, David still felt alone in this world.
"Come on, let's talk, let's talk about the Saltukibey dynasty."
"Yeah."
David took a deep breath and forced himself to stop the endless thoughts from diverging.
But even so, he felt that he was lowering Gerris.
"According to the previous agreement, I have the right to interfere with the land near Erzurum City here, lead the transformation here, and promote the right way here... right?"
"Yes, yes."
David found that when he faced this indescribable Gerris, he had lacked the courage to refuse.
After all, the head of the last person who rejected Garys' proposal is now staring at himself with incredible eyes.
This is a silent threat.
As a result, in this environment, Gerris had a discussion of interests with David.
"Aladdinbey, in fact, does not need to be abolished for the time being. We just need to put it on the shelf and establish a Turkic parliament to rule this area legally."
"We are not intent on annexing this place, whether it is Georgia or Jerusalem."
"The chaos in Anatolia is not suitable for our two countries to go too deep during the period."
"For this reason, I think that ensuring the existence of the Saltukibey dynasty is of certain value, but we must also impose sufficient constraints on them to urge this country to move closer to a more civilized and correct path."
Geris communicated with David many of his thoughts here.
Although the real ruler in Georgia was not David, but King Tamara.
But as Tamara's husband, he still has a certain say. After all, this really doesn't work, so just blow the wind by the pillow.
After entering the interest exchange process that David is familiar with, David gradually relaxed, briefly forgot Gerris's power, and discussed details with the other party. "Then what can we get in Georgia? We don't want to do good deeds when we come here."
Geris actually expected this issue.
Although annexation of land is meaningless to Georgia, if this country is not influenced by Georgia, then this war is also meaningless.
"Although I think it is necessary to continue to maintain the existence of the Saltukibei State and establish the supervision of Aladdinbei by the Turkic Parliament."
"But in terms of economy, the main body of this country is ultimately a country with Armenians and Greeks as the main body."
"So, we need to rely on representatives of various ethnic groups and towns to discuss tax issues, determine the amount and purpose of taxes... Therefore, in addition to the Turkic Parliament, we also need a large parliament where all ethnic groups participate."
When talking about this, David actually understood a little.
Although Gerris is said to maintain the Saltukibei country, he is actually suppressing the political power of the Turks.
This so-called grand parliament is a channel for other nations to speak out.
As the Kingdom of Georgia, which has taken in a large number of Armenian nobles, although they are not suitable to directly annex these lands, they can support their spokespersons through their religious, ethnic and cultural influence.
