Chapter 21 Your Majesty, why did you rebel?

Agnes didn't wait for long. A few minutes later, Greek infantry soldiers with blood on their shields came out of the palace and stood in a row behind Agnes. The leading middle-aged man stepped forward and walked up to the Macedonian nobleman. Before, neither humble nor overbearing.

"My lord, Obolemus and his men have been killed."

"Hmm." Agnes nodded. Instead of looking at the middle-aged man, he looked out of the city, wondering when His Majesty the King and his army would arrive.

It took a lot of effort to bring these dozen Greek heavy infantry into the palace. His life was at stake, and he did not dare to attack rashly.There must be many guards around Ophemia now, and they must wait until the king's army arrives at the city to distract the queen mother's attention before taking action.

As if responding to his thoughts, at this moment, a long and low bell suddenly sounded from the direction of the city wall. Angnis's body trembled violently. He was very familiar with this bell. It was clearly Pei's. The warning bell would sound only when Lacheng was besieged by foreign enemies!
thump -- thump -- thump --

Outside the city, looking at the city of Pella with the sound of warning bells echoing in the sky, Antigonus, riding on a white war horse, had a face as deep as water. He looked heroic wearing a composite breastplate and the same Hercules lion-head helmet as Alexander the Great's. , his whole body exuded a touch of majesty. After putting on the armor prepared for him by this system, his original childish aura was instantly covered up, replaced by the authority and evil aura of a general!

"Put down the offensive formation, and at the same time send a person to persuade them to surrender."

He said lightly to the captain of the guard, Kronor, who was beside him, and the latter quickly promised that since His Majesty the King put on this suit of armor, he seemed to be a different person, and he was no longer the one that Kronor remembered growing up with. He didn't dare to be rash, and instead raised his spirits.

The king's order quickly spread throughout the army, and several companies of copper shield spearmen that formed the spear phalanx began to move in small steps under the shouts of their officers and the movements of the standard bearers, forming a long snake formation.The elite main combat units of these kingdoms held their heads high, their fighting spirit was high, and the phalanx was like a forest of spears. The armor and shields on their bodies were very clean, and they reflected dazzling spots under the sunlight, which made the defenders on the city wall hurt their eyes. .

While the army was in formation, a cavalryman rushed out of the army formation, galloped all the way, and ran to the bottom of the city wall. The knight stopped his horse, looked up at the defenders on the city wall, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty the King is back. Why don't you open the city gate to welcome him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a slight commotion among the defenders on the city wall.

"Your Majesty the King... is really His Majesty the King..."

"Why did His Majesty the King lead the army to besiege Pella?"

"Oh my god, what happened here?"

"..."

Hearing the soldiers' discussions, Makanidas, the defense officer of Pella City, frowned. He pushed aside the soldiers standing in front of him, walked behind the wall, jumped out half of his body, and looked at the knights below. , replied loudly: "I will open the city gate only when I see His Majesty the King with my own eyes!"

Hearing this, the knight didn't answer, and turned his horse's head back to the main formation.Seeing his leaving back, city defense officer Makanidas grasped the cold wall with both hands, and his mind was in a state of confusion.

He still remembered that Queen Eupheemia sent someone to inform him an hour ago that His Majesty the King himself was at the Palace of Vecina. The man outside the city was a fake. After he arrived with his army, he must not open the city gate.Originally he thought the Queen Mother's words were true, but now that he saw the royal flag hanging high in the military formation outside the city, his firm heart began to waver.

On the other side, the fellow cavalryman who shouted returned to Antigonus, saluted him, and then said: "Your Majesty, the city defense officer Makanidas asks you to meet him in person, otherwise he will not open the city. The door let us in."

"Want to see me?" Antigonus said softly, but before he could respond, Cronus on the side persuaded: "Your Majesty, you should not take any risks, in case Macanidas is Ophelia Mia's people, it would be too dangerous for you to go over and shoot cold arrows."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, you should not go."

The surrounding knights also echoed.

Hearing what they said, Antigon knew that they were worried about him, and with a smile on his lips, he said, "Don't worry, in front of everyone, he doesn't dare to make stabs in the back. The charge of regicide."

"But, Your Majesty..."

Kronos wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Antigonus raising his hand, so he could only swallow the words that came to his lips, and watched in concern as Antigonus rode out of the army formation and headed towards the city wall.

If it were a normal Antigonus, he would never put his own safety within the enemy's shooting range. However, after putting on the armor given by the system, his courage increased greatly, as if he was a partial incarnation of Alexander the Great. .

Seeing that Antigonus really dared to come alone, Macanedas on the city wall couldn't help but show admiration. Regardless of whether the other person was really His Majesty the King, his courage alone was enough for him as a soldier to admire him. .

Soon, Antigonus came to the bottom of the city wall. He did not pay attention to the gazes of the archers and javelinmen on the city wall, but stared at Macanedas, who was also sizing up the young general. His face It was exactly the same as the king's face in his memory, allowing Macanidas to instantly identify him.

"Makanidas, as you wish, I'm here." Antigonus said in a flat tone, as if he was not on the battlefield, but at home.

"Your Majesty the King." Makanidas nodded, "Why did you lead the army to besiege Pella?"

"Your Majesty, why did you rebel?"

Hearing this, Antigonus couldn't help but be amused by the question of the soul of Macedonia, he laughed softly, and said loudly: "Macanidas, you have to remember, I am the supreme king of the Kingdom of Macedonia .”

"Yes, you are the supreme king of the kingdom." Maccanidas said, not sure what kind of medicine Antigonus was selling in the gourd.

"Ophemia and Nicanor colluded in an attempt to depose my throne, Macanidas, who do you think is rebelling?" Antigonus continued.

"What? It's impossible!"

Makanidas was startled, subconsciously denied it, and then saw that Antigonus' face remained unchanged, and added: "They have no reason to do this."

"But that's what they did." Antigonus said indifferently, "Nicanor has been taken by me, and all the troops he brought have surrendered to me, Macanidas, the advantage is in my hands, I Still need to lie to you?"

Although Antike's tone was flat, the city defense officer could still hear a trace of disdain.

That's right, Antigonus has no reason to lie to him, he is just an insignificant city defense officer.
