During the dinner that day, listening to the flattering words of various nobles in his ears, Egil felt extremely good in himself - even saying such big words: "Capture Bergen within one day." Then, naturally caused a wave of flattery from the nobles.

But then again, Egil's words were not unfounded.

Bergen, who lost a lot of troops in the field, no longer had enough strength to defend the city. Therefore, Egil had great confidence in capturing the city.

If the enemy used all the eight thousand troops on defense, Egil would have to use the cannon fodder of the nobles who came with the army - I mean the peasant soldiers. However, after this battle, Egil again obtained nearly 6,000 prisoners. In addition, those who were killed on the battlefield were almost wiped out. More importantly, almost all the nobles near Bergen were beaten up.

Even if the enemy temporarily recruited some citizens or something, plus a little bit of remnants and defeated soldiers - their number would definitely not exceed 500.

Maybe he didn't have to fight by himself, and the other party could open the city and surrender directly. Egil even had this idea.

So Egil decisively sent the guy who volunteered two days ago to negotiate with the noble alliance, completely ignored his frightened face and threw him directly to the city gate. Then he was shot into a hedgehog by a bow and arrow on it.

"Hey? Why didn't they surrender?" Egil asked the other nobles around him very strangely, and the other nobles were embarrassed and speechless.

"Probably because you killed people too hard, so you offended these guys." At this time, the voice of the system elves came over: "The people guarding this city now must be related to the group of people you killed two days ago. So, you understand."

"Oh...revenge?"

"Yes, it's just revenge."

"But, the garrison power of the city opposite should be insufficient. What will he take to avenge?"

"Sa, who knows?"

In short, after the negotiations failed, the siege of Bergen began. Unlike the trepid troops on the city, which looked more like citizens than soldiers, the Biad Vikings under the city wall seemed relaxed and comfortable. The engineers leisurely moved the crossbow parts loaded on the military carriage and assembled them in a place that was beyond the reach of the bows and arrows on the city wall. Then they replaced the special crossbow arrows for siege and shot.

Although the walls of Bergen are much better than those nobles who piled up the city with soil and wooden boards, they are still essentially soil. Even if they are slightly burned, they have a little strength. However, don't have too much confidence in the legendary medieval craftsmanship. Look, the shot of this thing is passed by.

The large mud bricks burned from the soil were instantly shot in by iron arrows, and then pulled hard, and a large piece of soil was pulled down. The accuracy of the genuine crossbow cannon equipped with aiming was relatively high. In just a few moments, the large walls were smashed into a bumpy pit. Under Egil's order, most of the crossbow arrows shot to the lower part of the wall, and digging out the foundation of the wall little by little.

Finally, in the exclamation of the soldiers on both sides, the city wall that was hit hard by a key blow was finally overwhelmed and collapsed rumblingly.

Seeing this scene, Egil's army was in high spirits. After Egil gave his order, he rushed towards the gap.

"Stop it! Block it there!" Seeing this scene, Commander Bergen above the city, a boy in his twenties, suddenly panicked. The wish to avenge his father and brother was thrown away. He just regretted why he had not chosen to surrender before.

"Damn it, I'll stand this attack and surrender later." The enemy commander gritted his teeth and knew that if he wanted to surrender at this time, he had to show his real skills. At least he had to let the other party know that he was not easy to mess with, so that he could sell it at a good price.

"After entering the city, the enemy will inevitably plunder. If you care about your own lives, then will your wife and children not care about your lives?!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, and at least encouraged some of the temporary recruitment of citizens with simple weapons to block the gap.

"Can you do it?" Egilzer immediately stepped forward and asked his engineers.

The engineer who was asked shook his head: "If you shoot again at this time, it will easily cause accidental injury."

"Is that right, then forget it." Egil regretted that he had given the general attack order a little too early. Of course, on the surface he was still full of confidence - the ravings that Luocheng had said before could not be taken back. The casualties were greater.

So, at the gap less than three meters wide, mixed with a large number of broken bricks, the army of both sides launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle. The opponent's commander wanted to arrange his troops into a tight defensive formation as much as possible, but these fools who had not received professional training and could not even distinguish left and right did not understand what the formation was. In addition, the flying axes of the opposite Viking warriors had great lethality at close range, so the opponent's commander gave up this effort. He arranged the chaotic scattered formation and fought with the Viking warriors.

After all, war is not a romantic thing. Seeing the guy around him - even the guy he knew was cut off by the vicious Vikings' battle axe - the broken spear in his hand could not pierce the opponent's chain armor at all, or even if it was pierced, it would not cause too much damage to the opponent. In this case, the little blood bravery inspired by the enemy commander lasted for only a short time and disappeared without a trace. The soldiers began to flee in groups, while the Viking soldiers rushed in large numbers along the gap, directly trampling the bricks into a solid hill.

It's been won.

Seeing his army successfully breaking into the city, Egil felt a sense of ease. After chuckling a few times, he rode his horse forward, then raised his command knife in his hand: "Everyone, this war has ended, and the treacherous charity who betrayed the first lord is about to be destroyed! Tonight, we can have a carnival in the city of Bergen!"

Immediately afterwards, a system prompt sound came: Congratulations, you have captured the first city, which originally belonged to the rebels in northern Norway. Now please choose your situation of handling the city.

First: Securely occupy without any offense, to show your style as a righteous teacher and a kingly teacher.

Second: Stop the troops and plunder all the property in the city. Of course, in this process, there will inevitably be some guys who want money and live... Then just reward him with a knife.

Third: Massacre, Massacre Lalalala~ Take out most of the residents in the city and bleed one by one. By the way, set a fire so that everyone can participate in a expensive bonfire party. Of course, if you do this, you will have a lot of money and property to be buried in the fire with the first lord...

Fourth: Slavery, expand the number of serfs, turn these free people into slaves, and confiscate all their property by the way.

Fifth, customization, you don’t like these options of your sister? Then you can just do it yourself.

"Well... I choose to customize." Egil thought about it for a moment and felt that these options were not very reliable - after all, the city of Bergen is located in the inland Norway, and in the future it can be considered as his own rear. It is not good to slaughter and rob it - but if it is safely occupied, it will be underestimated again. It is hard to say that those citizens will be arrogant and will cause some brainlessness and riots after they lead the army away.

"Pill all the guys with medium assets or above, and publicly execute and kill all the masters of the people who have some connection with the rebels, and enslave all the rest of their families." Egil pondered for a moment, and then ordered the guard knights around him. So the guard knights rode forward and passed the city gate to issue Egil's orders.

Of course, although Egil gave such an order, it would probably be given a few discounts when it was actually implemented. Although the Viking warriors produced in the system absolutely obeyed the orders. However, the signs of the nobles of peasants and soldiers were not so sure. And the broad concepts above the middle class were also different in everyone's minds. In addition, if you "had something to do with the rebels", if you bite it, almost all the rebels in the whole city can drink the rebels. This also provides a lot of opportunities for blackmail...

However, these are all trivial matters, and there is no need to care about them at all. Even if the citizens in the city work a little harder, what if it is like this? This is the war, who made them losers? If Egil was defeated, then the one who was plundered by the soldiers is Biyad.

In this way, the merchant who owned the largest house in the city was labeled as "connected with the rebels". It was not until the other party agreed to give his three-story house to Egil for free, and then pay 2,000 gold coins. Egil himself made a bad name. By the way, he demonstrated to his subordinates what blackmail meant.

The bosses of our family have done this, so the younger brothers below naturally understand something. The captains of various Viking warriors and the guard knights all understood and left.
