Still like leading a sheep, Askad felt that the second daughter finally became much more obedient after some conversations.

"I was too rough just now?"

Inadvertently turning his head slightly, his eyes fixed on their bleeding knees again.

"Sure enough. I should be more gentle."

Almost all the brothers of the Seventh Banner swarmed into the palace, the cathedral next to the palace, which was completely controlled by the standing army.

There is enough information to point to the sarcophagus of Charlemagne himself in the cathedral.

The greatest of Frank's past still enjoys a name in the Danish world, but his name is quite bad.

After all, his deceased father had been to Denmark when he was young, and he had heard some strange news for a long time.

Compared with his father, Blue Fox often feels that he has been to many places, and has actually met Charlemagne's grandson Ludwig.

Grandpa once killed a Dane and begged for mercy on his knees. Why is his grandson so weak that he became a defeated general? Maybe it's just because the Ross people are too strong. If it weren't for Ross' help, even if the Danes were given a hundred years, they would not be able to challenge Frank's authority, even if it was only one-third of Ludwig's Frank.

"Charlemagne? Are you lying in this magnificent church?"

Blue Fox hides his sterling silver cross well. His attitude towards God is in a mixed state of belief and unbelief. He has many pendants on his chest, and he can talk nonsense to others.

He broke into Aachen Cathedral today as an intruder and blasphemer, without any guilt, but without the arrogance of a conqueror.

A rather strange idea flooded into my mind.

He wanted to see for himself the fabled tomb of Charlemagne,

King Rurik, who represented himself, also spoke a few words with this European conqueror across time and space for himself.

Then the secret agreement with Ludwig will also be fulfilled. As the saying goes, looting is allowed, but wanton destruction is not.

But for the priests in the city, besides gathering in the hall and praying in front of the cross hanging high, can they do anything better?

The city defenders are fighting a **** battle with strange invaders. It stands to reason that all priests should make good use of the escape opportunity won by those fighters. It is amazing that the priests are unmoved.

Even though many lower-level priests were trembling, Bishop Heinbach of Aachen let out a very impolite roar, which directly shocked everyone.

"Don't run away! Almighty God will protect us! Pray! We will win. Aachen belongs to Frank forever! Charlemagne forever! All wicked people will be killed by the Lord's thunder!"

Is it possible that miracles will come only through devout prayers?

The bishop was willing to believe this, first convincing himself and facing the high hanging cross by example.

After all, just across the wall of the cross is the Palatine Hall of the church, in which Charlemagne's sarcophagus is placed.

The heroic spirit of the great former king sheltered New Rome, and because he was invincible in Aachen, all his warriors would try their best to protect the safety of Aachen.

But all this is wishful thinking!

There is no strong garrison force around the city. After all, any generation of kings cannot believe that there will be a villain army directly attacking Aachen and successfully entering.

The bishop was praying, and the other priests looked at each other and knelt down to join in the huge prayer, as if the outdoor fighting had nothing to do with them.

locked

The gate began to be slashed wildly by the long-handled Nordic forest axe, and it was obvious that the gate would collapse if it was hit for a short time.

Every time there was a critical attack, the praying priests would tremble collectively, and then continued to kneel down, silently reading the sacred documents of the Gospel.

They did not take any countermeasures, as if imagining that the gate was impenetrable.

Suddenly, a gap was abruptly wiped out of the door, and the wooden latch behind the door was broken.

The door suddenly opened, and the strong Russian standing army soldier kicked vigorously in a bloodstained posture. The closed door crashed to both sides with a bang, and the door of the church opened.

"It's the devil! The devil has come in!"

Some young subordinates were shocked when the blood-stained foreign warriors broke into the door. These people were indeed covered in blood, as terrifying as the apostles of Satan crawling out of hell.

Of course, what they did next was worthy of terror.

"Franks! Go to hell!" The tall warrior rushed up with a long-handled battle ax in a rough Norse vocabulary, and chopped at the panicked junior priest in the gesture of chopping firewood.

The priest covered his head with his hands subconsciously, and was chopped to death amidst the screams.

Ross soldiers filed in. After all, they almost killed all the assembled city defenders in the outdoor square just now. The priests in black robes in front of them were all unarmed.

Stabbing with sharp swords and slashing with tomahawks, everything is extremely bloody, and everything is just like in the past. History is repeating itself.

The looting behavior is exactly the same.

The blue fox has gained experience in robbing the church. Although I don't know the specific structure of Aachen Cathedral, I am sure that it must have a grand main entrance and some small doors. No, each small gate was easily discovered, and he left a small number of ambushes at all the small gates.

The berserkers of the standing army pressed forward with all their strength, and the hall of the adhan was completely turned into a **** on earth.

"Barbarians! You will go to hell!" Holding up a cross of pure gold and inlaid with a large number of rubies, the bishop of Aachen stood in front of the black wooden cross hanging high, and cast what he thought was the most terrible curse on the invaders.

But this act of holding up a pure gold cross undoubtedly made him a target of public criticism.

Countless pairs of eyes stared at this cross. The so-called principle that brothers can grab it with their own ability when they enter the city, they don't think it is a sacred object held high by the priest, but they see its coveted essence-a piece of gold.

In order to **** the cross, more than a dozen people rushed forward, and they didn't even have time to kill the mad priest beside him.

As a result, Bishop Heinbach undoubtedly vomited blood and died in the stabbing of the sword. He became a real martyr, giving everything for his beliefs and everything for the creed.

Aachen Cathedral was built at the expense of Charlemagne himself. However, when he passed away, this Frankish building, which highly imitated the style of Roman-style churches, was still unfinished. The church continued to be built when his son Louis the Pious was in power.

In order to show that this is the largest cathedral in New Rome, some authentic Roman artifacts were moved to Aachen, and some were placed in the church.

The essence of the Palatine is like Charlemagne's coffin, while the sarcophagus is pure meaning.

Righteous coffin.

The essence of this hall is a huge tomb, and only members of the royal family, senior nobles, and priests can enter here on weekdays. Nobles can look up to the great kings, while the priests who enter it only do daily maintenance.

Now, the minaret hall is soaked in blood, even if the priests who were not killed would not rush into the Palatine hall even if they were fleeing for their lives, they fled through the small gate and were stabbed to death one by one by the Ross warriors who were waiting.

Blue Fox finally entered the Aachen Cathedral. He was able to avoid the killing that just ended. He did not participate in any fighting, but he watched everything at the door.

He walked into it with a sullen face, and the large-scale moving operation had already begun. Even though the sun was setting in the west, the increasingly dim sunlight still could not cover up the unique noble color of gold and silverware.

Just like some other high-end churches, even the chandeliers seem to be plated with gold.

Suddenly, on the right side of the hall in front of you, there is a whole wall with strong reflection?

"Golden Wall? It shouldn't be."

Blue Fox ran over in person, even if he stepped on the priest who died tragically, he rushed into the group of soldiers who were pushing the "Golden Gate" to join the final work.

After some pushing and shoving, it was meaningless. After calming down a little, I realized that the door-like existence was actually locked.

"Get out of the way! Watch me smash it with a sledgehammer!"

Now Blue Fox can confirm that it is not

What kind of golden door is probably a wooden door covered with a layer of bronze skin, and you can find it tricky when you look carefully.

The ruthless hammer dominates all kinds of gates, and the warriors with giant hammers and giant axes exist for this moment.

The bronze-skinned gate was forcibly knocked down, and the light projected through the hollowed-out stone window showed the

In front of everyone is a monster sculpture that looks like it is made of pure gold, and then there is a square stone table.

The soldiers couldn't help feeling disheartened when they saw this scene.

Someone said bluntly: "What, I thought this secret room was a treasure room, but it turned out to be a stone table? There is another one? A sculpture of a beast?"

"Wait a minute! There are still some pictures on this wall." Another person pointed with a sword.

For a while, everyone had different opinions, but the blue fox realized something.

"Shut up!" He shouted, and after calming down the audience, he ordered again: "You all go and carry your favorite things! This empty room belongs to me! I want to be quiet here."

Everyone is different about why the blue fox, the supreme military command appointed by the king, is like this, and the ghost knows what it does in an apparently empty room. Since Blue Fox likes this inexplicable place, let him go.

The onlookers scattered, and they poured into the door on the left in large numbers, and then found the door leading to the cellar, a large amount of gold and silverware, boxes for storing money, and even books piled with parchment museum.

The soldiers of the standing army are worthy of their status, most of them know the goods, and they also understand King Rurik's attitude towards the church. Parchment books cannot be burned, paying tribute to the king can get verbal and material rewards, and the blank parchment captured is more valuable than the used one.

Grund led his men to attack the cellar with precision, and happily began to carry the spoils outdoors.

High-end and large items are difficult for individuals to own, but the corners and corners of pure gold and silver can be smashed and put into pockets. Soldiers are doing it lol

Hee hee smashed the complicated gold and silver cross into a simple "cross".

Grabbing a handful from the seized cash box is enough to satisfy yourself. If you grab too much, it will be ugly, and the king will be angry if he finds out in the future.

No, after each money box was looted, half of it was left, which would eventually be paid to the king.

Of all the fighters, Grund became the most plundering one. After all, this is probably the last battle of his life. Thanks to the reward of King Ross, the drifters have a stable life. They have wives and children at home. Now they need to get a lot of money for their own retirement and to accumulate enough cash for the family to live in the future. Obviously, thanks to the king, he made a fortune in the Frankish capital in the last battle, and he has no regrets in this life.

What is the greatest wealth?

Youdao is an intangible wealth, and in the eyes of Lanhu, there is nothing more than the "stone table" in the strange hall.

That is not a table, but a coffin! The sarcophagus is carved with clear lines of human figures, and the words carved in Latin are clearly written.

The owner of the sarcophagus is none other than Charlemagne himself.

"It turns out that you are the conqueror of the world, the emperor of Rome, and the king of the Franks. Charlie...are you lying here?"

Looking at the sarcophagus silently, Blue Fox inadvertently retracted the hand that wanted to touch it.

He thought about it again, put his hand up resolutely, and muttered even more: "I know, you almost conquered Denmark. Now the Danish army is in your capital. You have never failed, but your descendants Failed to defend your kingdom. Even..."

At this moment, the blue fox really felt that he was communicating with Charlemagne's soul.

Talking, he believes that the soul of such a great person must be able to hear what he is saying, and even stand beside him and listen to him in the dark. But no matter what he said, the king couldn't do anything.

"Actually, your grandson Ludwig is fully aware of all this. Your grandson is in a civil war. We Russians are eager to establish a new order in the north. The order you created is meaningless. We have entered your city, here we come .We Rus, bring Danes, Saxons

Well, this time, you can't stop us at all. But...we will not further destroy your Aachen, nor your rest. All this was done by King Rurik of Ross. but me! Blue Fox &ddot; Gouldsson &ddot; von Gothenburg. It was I who led the Northern Allied Forces into your capital, the northerners you wanted to defeat when you were alive, and we won! "

The more I talk about a sarcophagus, the more excited I get!

This Palatine Palace is essentially the core of Aachen Cathedral. It is the original part, and the internal area is not large. However, it has a towering vaulted dome, which is an imitation of Roman architecture. Its name is also taken from Rome. city's Palatine Hill. Its extension part completely includes it, the external name is Maria Hall, and the overall name is St. Mary's Cathedral in Aachen.

There is not only a bronze lion statue transported from Rome in the Palatine Hall, but also a bronze eagle statue with a very long history. Crowned as Roman Emperor.

The mosaic decoration on the wall draws the glory of Charlemagne, a bronze statue of the Virgin Mary

Like hanging from a stone wall.

Overall, the Palatine is quite simple. After all, it was 842. Later generations built a new golden coffin with pure gold, painted murals with famous painters, and replaced ordinary stone slabs with smooth marble floors. None of these things currently exist.

Blue Fox said a lot. He not only spoke to the resting Charlemagne, but also gave himself an explanation.

When Charlemagne died, he had just been born, and he had never met Lothair, but he had quite close contact with Ludwig himself. The blue fox estimated Charlemagne's face when he was alive from Ludwig's appearance, and it must be a man with strong curly hair. Frank's royal family must be like this, and the grandson must inherit from his grandfather, just like his own Gould family. Unless there are special circumstances, the whole family is fat.

Patting his face, even though his body has lost weight and has obvious muscle texture, this face is still round and round.

"Your grandson Ludwig... is very complicated. I don't like him, but I don't hate him either. Your empire has no meaning to exist now, and your grandson's civil war will definitely destroy everything about you. I will obey and Luther Vichy's agreement, you will continue to rest in peace, I will not burn down Aachen, I will not burn down your church, and I will not destroy your tomb. However, those gold and silverware are meaningless to a dead person like you, we take You have nothing to lose by walking them. Rest in peace, Charlie!"

Not only did the blue fox not destroy Charlemagne's sarcophagus, it didn't even take away the bronze statue inside. Of course he can capture the bronze statues of lions and eagles and present them to King Ross to satisfy Rurik's heart.

The thought of "Northern Rome" is always on my mind. But doing so is equivalent to breaking the secret agreement with Ludwig.

A businessman pays attention to the contract! Although being a businessman should be flexible, considering that the Kingdom of Ross needs a controllable future, things must not be done absolutely.

Lan Huxuan is about to close the broken bronze door and give a death order to the standing army soldiers who are looting freely in the cathedral. The so-called room behind the bronze door becomes a forbidden area, and anyone who dares to take anything will be executed!

If you ask why? The answer was that it was Charlemagne's tomb.

Based on the pre-war contract, the tomb has become a forbidden area, and any arson will be punished by death.

Regarding the prohibition of arson, Blue Fox just reiterated it at this moment. Before the siege, the order was spread throughout the entire army. Subjectively, arson should not be allowed, and it should be extinguished as soon as possible if it accidentally catches fire during looting~www.mtlnovel.com~ Blue Fox is afraid that if Aachen sets off a fire in the city, it will eventually Charlemagne's tomb will inevitably be affected, which Rurik does not want to happen, and it will inevitably arouse Ludwig's fury.

Blue Fox didn't even want to stay in Aachen for a long time. It was too easy to attack the city. He couldn't see the situation in the whole area. Considering that things that were too smooth were likely to hide crises, at least one thing was certain, when Maastricht The attack spread to the Frankish garrison in the west, and there was a high probability of a counterattack.

It is necessary for the Russian coalition forces to move away as much of Aachen's property as possible, and to complete it in a short time.

As a result, these soldiers were withdrawn, and then loaded on the ship from Maastricht and marched away to end the war.

After all, there are ships of the whole army on the other side of that city. After all, the army took a lot of loot

Property, not to mention how much determination the soldiers can maintain to fight, just fighting with a large amount of property is ridiculous.

He ordered again to plunder for three days according to the traditional rules, including the day of siege, so-called, on the morning of the fourth day, the whole army was evacuated from Aachen and returned to Maastricht to end the war.
