- "One day, I will ride my horse across the clear sky and conquer the kingdom of heaven."
————by:Drake.D.Char
————————————————————[]
The next day, Xia Ya woke up.
His body has fully recovered and his face is no longer as pale as it was two days ago. All this is due to the system's ability. You only need to pay an equivalent price to get what you need. It is the strongest shield behind Char.
The Battle of London has ended, and the changes of the new era have entered Char's vision along with the English people who are working hard to rebuild their homes on the streets.
"My King, is it really okay for you to walk around like this just after your body has recovered?"
Accompanying Char are the Moonlight Knight and the Song Knight. They follow the king's will and accompany him around the Royal Palace of Great Britain.
Because the Royal City of Pren is the benefactor who saved London, the capital of Great Britain, in order to show his sincerity, Merlin also acquiesced to Char's ability to move around in the palace before fulfilling his promise. No palace guard will block King Plun's path, which is equivalent to recognizing the equal status of King Plun in Great Britain.
??At least for now.
"How can cultivating in a room be compared with bathing in the sun? The king is not that weak." Xia Ya shook his head and said.
The Song Knight nodded, she agreed with the king's statement. Rather than resting in a room, walking around in the sun as much as possible is more conducive to body recovery.
And although the war has just subsided, hundreds of miles away in this fertile land, another larger and more difficult battle is on the verge of breaking out. If there are no accidents, that battle will represent the interests of the three parties: the French Empire, the Royal City of Pren, and the British Empire. The winner will get everything, while the loser will be left on this island forever to spend his life with the century-old tree.
Speaking of trees, there was a huge tree right in front of us. Its dense branches and leaves completely covered the sky, leaving a large shady area on the ground.
"Oh? What a big tree."
Raising his hand to block the dazzling light in the sky, Xia Ya looked up. The rough and strong tree body supported the huge trunk. The dense branches and leaves on the top of the tree were like an oversized parasol, covering the surrounding area. The area within ten meters is all included in his arms. Faintly, the crisp chirping of birds could be heard in the dense leaves.
The crisp chirping sound, the gentle breeze caressing the face, and the beautiful weather with cloudless skies.
It’s really sad that after the battle, this kind of scene is the most soothing
Brushing the bangs around her ears that were blown by the wind, the knight under the moon stared at the king with an expression of enjoyment.
He spoke softly: "King, where should we go to rest?"
Xia Ya smiled, this is a good idea.
Nodding, the three of them walked to the cute shade of the big tree. Char sat on the ground with his back against the majestic tree. The two guardian knights knelt down and sat beside Char in a serious manner.
Rustling rustling the sound of a gust of wind blowing the branches and leaves.
The dense leaves blocked the sunlight in the sky, but as the breeze blew, it flickered like a flashlight, letting the sun's rays flash in front of Xia Ya's eyes.
"It's such a pleasant weatherdon't you two think so?"
The Song Knight smiled and nodded. As she sat under the tree, her orange hair looked very soft. The Knight under the Moon, who was sitting opposite her, also shook his head slightly, his silky silver hair falling down his shoulders, and his whole person exuded a relaxed atmosphere
"As you said, my king."
“Well, I feel like I haven’t had this kind of leisure time for a long time.”
The guardian knight and the king were so close to each other, it always felt like a very distant memory. How long ago was the last time you came? I forgot that since the invasion of the French Empire, the days when the Twelve Guardian Knights get together with the king have become less and less day by day. This feeling of being separated from another world actually gives rise to a feeling of "going through reincarnation" deep in people's hearts. .
"Next time, we must invite them over. This kind of gatheringhas not happened for too long."
“Definitely, we will definitely be able to gather together againmy king.”
With a comfortable expression on his face, King Pulun was lying on the spot with his back against the big tree.
While enjoying the coolness brought by the shade of the trees, there were two beautiful guardian knights staying by his side.
??Persistent yet calm, slightly closedNow, the knight under the moon is enjoying the cherished time with the king.
??High-definition and cold, looking at the king with unblinking eyes, the Psalm Knight didn't even want to move his eyes for a second.
There is also the Arc Knight, who is hundreds of miles away and is reviewing various documents with a serious look on his face. When I picked up a glass of water and was about to drink it, I suddenly felt a sensation in my heart, and an unprecedented feeling came over me. This kind of relaxation is accompanied by closeness, and the closeness is accompanied by eagerness, just like the nostalgic scene in the round table conference room where the king and the guardian knights were fighting and arguing regardless of their status reappeared.
Turning his head slightly, the Arc Knight looked out the window This sudden good mood gave him more motivation to continue working hard.
"Hurry up! Reinforce the position! Drive the stakes over there deeper!!" The Earth Knight's face turned red and he shouted at the position at the top of his lungs.
The familiar and warm feelings in his heart are one of the fundamental reasons for his high enthusiasm at this moment.
"Dadi, as the commander-in-chief, you should pay attention to your dignity." The Paladin Knight crossed his shoulders and said with a teasing expression.
However, at this moment, he had no reason to laugh at the Earth Knight. Because now he has the same mood as Dadi, this exciting and motivated feeling If he doesn't find something to vent, he might die on the spot due to excessive depression.
"If you don't want to die, reinforce your position. An army of 100,000 people will not just talk casually for fun!!" The Earth Knight continued to shout.
The soldiers under his command were vigorously waving hoes or knives and forks, and worked hard to build positions to protect themselves.
This position stretches for hundreds of meters. The front is covered with upright wooden tips, and it is surrounded by a pitted and convex land. There are steep hills on both sides. Because it is the easternmost part of the island of Ireland and is close to the hilly Scottish Territory, the terrain here is extremely rugged, with more highlands and less forest. And most of the area can be seen at a glance. See the flat area where heaven and earth meet.
Although the Knights of the Land wanted to introduce their troops and the French army into the woods, they would use surprise attacks, night attacks, harassment and ambushes to undermine the enemy's morale. But the tragedy is that God did not follow his wishes. A few days ago, the French army suddenly launched a large-scale change in its formation. Unaccepted of the previous calm movement, it suddenly used the momentum of driving away wolves and tigers to dismantle the combat deployment of the Irish United Army in one breath. As a result, the Earth Knights could only temporarily deploy their troops on the only way to the British island, a high hilly area with a relatively favorable terrain.
"Consolidate your positions and strengthen your defenses, for yourselves, for your nation, and for victory!!"
The Earth Knight raised his arms and shouted.
“Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!”
The more than 40,000 soldiers at the foot of the mountain immediately responded with the roar of the mountains and the sea. The slogan for victory echoed back and forth in the hills of the valley, echoing endlessly.
Although the coalition forces were in a weak position, with the intervention of King Pulen and the provision of numerous armors and sophisticated weapons, the morale of the coalition forces rose instead of falling.
It was not only the English who died in the Hundred Years' Holy War between Britain and France, but also the disobedient Irish and Scots. Although they are unhappy with the arrogance of the English, they are even less fond of the French who slaughtered their compatriots with their own hands. If they had a choice, the Irish and Scots would choose to kill the French first, and then turn around and deal with the English. After all, you know your own affairs well.
When morale is like a rainbow, everything is ready.
The Earth Knight and the Psalm Knight looked into the distance, and the French Empire army, which covered the sky like dark clouds, almost monopolized half of the world.
Those countless flags, a huge base that cannot be identified with the naked eye, are just a unified breath of all members of the invasion legion, and it is a level three storm for the coalition forces!
“It’s very similar, it seems, that time in King Pulun City a year ago…” The Paladin Knight said with his spear on his back.
The Earth Knight nodded silently.
"Ahit was also such a doomsday scene back then. Even the morale of the entire army was not as strong as it is nowbut even so."
With one hand clenching into a fist, the Earth Knight proudly stood up and said, "Even so, the final victory is still ours! It's ours from King Pulun City! Under the leadership of that lordunder the leadership of our king!"
——————————————————————————
In the fifth month of the Pullen calendar year, there was a period of rampage. With a mere 40,000 troops, they dared to besiege the city of London and almost defeated the Second Legion of the French Empire, the Three Lions and Leopards. At the last moment when London was about to be captured, it was defeated by Pullen's reinforcements who arrived in time. PopularThe 9,000 reinforcements from the royal city came at full speed. After two days and one night of rapid march, they unexpectedly appeared behind the French Empire's Three Lions and Leopards. They used the world-famous Pulun Arrow Rain Formation to attack the flanks of the Three Lions Leopard Army, causing heavy casualties to the French soldiers on the front line. At least 10,000 people were killed under the Pulun Arrow Rain Formation.
In addition, the thousands of Pullen knights who had been trapped in the center of the French camp exploded into their strongest combat power after receiving rescue support, causing the French army to collapse. Finally, the Pullen spearmen were pressing forward step by step. In front of them, there was a large-scale rout. Among them, the leader of the Three Lions Leopard Legion, Carol Badron, was injured by Drac D. Char, the king of Plun, in order to avenge his humiliation.
This renewed confrontation between France and Prussia immediately attracted the attention of the French aristocracy.
A year ago, the city-state that brought great shame and anger to the French Empire actually appeared on the mainland of Great Britain. While the French nobles were frightened and angry, they put pressure on the Three Lions and Leopard Army, demanding that they must take responsibility for this and completely eliminate the Royal City of Pullen in the British Isles and not allow it to continue to exist.
As for support, the French nobles were very open-minded this time and directly promised to give priority to the replenishment of soldiers and logistics supplies for the Three Lions and Leopard Army.
It has been a year since the last defeat of the 150,000-strong French Empire in the Royal City of Pullen, but the French senior officials have never forgotten this terrifying country. With only 40,000 soldiers capable of resisting an enemy three times its own, if the city of Pu Lun is not destroyed, or transformed into its own people, then there will be absolutely no peace to talk about between the two countries.
But the thorny issue now is that the Royal City of Pren has obviously concluded an alliance contract with the British Empire, otherwise it would not have happened that when London was besieged, the Royal City of Pren would have appeared there by such a coincidence.
Therefore, the French nobles, or some princes who wanted to "attack" the throne, proposed that if the French Empire continued to insist on monopolizing the fat piece of Great Britain, it would never be as easy as previously imagined. If King Pulun's city is also on the British Isles, then in order to avoid unnecessary losses, you can contact some more powerful allies to share it together.
Of course, this is not because the French Empire is really afraid of King Pulun. They just don’t want to enjoy a mouthful of delicious food while having to endure a hard bone hidden in the meat that is hard enough to break their front teeth. At this time, without suffering too much loss, the best way is to find another strong ally and let him bite the hard nut of King Pulun City.
??Besides, the British Isles are still an island of empire after all. Even if the French Empire wants to monopolize the wealth there, it must first listen to the decree of the Holy See and whether the talented and ambitious emperor in the Roman Empire nods. Therefore, rather than passively accepting the destined results, it is better to actively invite them to join.
So, soon from the capital of the French Empire. Paris, the sixth most central city in the world, sent out three invitation posts.
One of the two was sent to Frankfurt, the capital of the former Holy Roman Empire. It was passed to the almighty Caesar through the hands of the messenger. The other one was sent to the Holy See. The French Empire invited the Holy See to send a special envoy to Great Britain to participate in some "friendly exchange activities" on the grounds that everything is the land of heaven in the eyes of God.
In this regard, the Pope naturally agreed happily and praised the French Empire more, promising to set up a special envoy within three weeks.
As for the third post, it is more interesting. The location it was sent to is neither the Kingdom of Poland, which borders the Holy Roman Empire, nor the Principality of Hungary, nor the third empire of the world, Russia. It is a country that has just experienced a civil war, and both the army and the people are extremely weak at the moment, Denmark. This clan has inherited the bloodline of berserkers since ancient times.
Anyone can see through the intentions of the French Empire at a glance.
Not to mention King Pulun, who is currently discussing this with Merlin in the palace.
Snapped!
The information transported through the secret passage was slammed onto the table by Xia Ya.
"Those bastards from the French Will Empire! They are deliberately muddying the waters!" Xia Ya cursed angrily.
"This kind of behavior was also expected by me. However, I didn't expect them to take action so quickly. It seems that the failure of the Three Lions and Leopard Army and the resurgence of your Royal City of Purun seems to have put a lot of pressure on those nobles. Ah." Merlin slowly stretched out his hand to take the piece of information on the table, read it carefully and said with a smile: "Moreover, doesn't this just prove how much the power of your Royal City of Purun makes other countries afraid? ?Instead of hurting your own body to get angry, why not happily accept the evil deeds of these cowards???How? "
Xia Ya glared at Merlin angrily. This old fox never wanted to reveal his true thoughts and always kept his words secretive.
"Merlin, you should understand what the consequences will be once those guys accept the invitation of the French Empire?" Xiaya stared at Merlin with sharp eyes and said, "Don't forget, just a French Empire can force The entire population of King Pulun City is fully armed, so being able to mobilize 10,000 troops to support your Great Britain is already the limit. Once this limit is broken, how do you think we will respond to the invasion of the other three countries? Not to mention that there is also a general of your Great Britain. Defeated the entire Roman Empire!"
Xia Ya deliberately used a sentence to tease Merlin, meaning, you stinky old man, stop pretending like that. Your army has been defeated by others and you are still pretending!
Merlin waved his hand, signaling to Xia to calm down.
"You must understand, King of Plun. The sun is setting in Great Britain today. You can understand this from the fact that the capital is surrounded by many nobles but no one comes to help. Our former glory follows King Uther Well, it no longer exists, and our army and fleet are also scattered. The only thing worth being proud of is probably the city of London itself. Please don't be deceived by my appearance. This plain expression is just my habit for hundreds of years. In fact, I am very troubled by this terrible situation."
"Humph, this has nothing to do with me. It's just Merlin, you must understand that if the number of countries that invade Great Britain increases again, especially if the Roman Empire really gets involved" Char's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone became stiff unconsciously. stand up. : "Please forgive us for our betrayal. At the same time, facing the invasion of the four countries, even our King City of Pulun dare not say that we can survive. Rather than using my last army to rescue you, I must first take responsibility for my own country." Of course it would be another matter if the three countries did not jointly invade, but how hopeful this is, you and I both know."
Merlin smiled and nodded. As a king, it is natural for him to make such a judgment: "Of course, if the situation is really bad, we will consider appropriate concessions. But, King of Pulun, now it is easy It’s too early to give up. Everything will turn around, right?”
Xia Ya turned around and stared at Merlin with lightning eyes: "What about?"
Merlin spread his hands: "First of all, there is Denmark, a small country that has just experienced civil strife. In the most glorious period of Great Britain, it was just a country that could be wiped out with just a breath. They have experienced decades of war and mutual consumption, let alone people. , even the army can hardly find a decent one. Let alone an elite army that can fight head-on with the Prussian, British and two ** regiments."
Merlin was right about this. During the Varangian rebellion thirty-two years ago, Denmark fell from a second-rate kingdom to a third-rate principality. There are almost endless wars in the country, diseases are raging, and the people are living in dire straits. In this generation, Denmark has a troubled hero. With his extraordinary iron-blooded methods and political acumen, he swept away all the rebellious officials in the country and initially unified them. As for Denmark as a whole, I'm afraid they don't even know if they have enough ability to cross the ocean now, let alone send troops.
"And the Holy See King of Pulun, do you think that the Holy See calling itself the Papal State is a country?"
Xia Ya frowned and continued to listen to Merlin's explanation.
"The Papal State is actually very similar to your Royal City of Pren. They are both based on cities, but this country is a little bit special. They don't have many armies, nor do they have elite legions that are famous all over the world like yours, and they don't have any practicality to deter them. The extraordinary force of other countries. But they have faith, a huge group of believers in the tens of thousands or even over 100 million! The civilians in the entire world, including Great Britain, are their strength, so the Papal State does not need an army. But If necessary, all they need to do is excommunicate your country from Christianity with a piece of paper, and without them having to do anything, you are waiting for your country to begin to collapse from within."
"Your people will rebel against you, your ministers will condemn you, your army will aim their butcher knives at you, and faith that transcends all reason and feeling is a miracle. The Papal State is such a place that no one can Do not look up to the transcendent existence, otherwise it would not be the case that the Roman Empire swept away half of Italy in one breath, but had to withdraw its troops hundreds of miles because of a letter from the Holy See, and stayed within the national boundaries defined by the Holy See."
It turns out that this Papal State is equivalent to the Vatican in later generations. It is a forbidden place for people’s spiritual beliefs in this world, and it must not be desecrated.
If someone dares to offend them, it is equivalent to making the whole world an enemy. All except the Arabs in the Middle East who believe in Allah and the Byzantines who believe in Catholicism. All European countries and peoplesThey will rise up to resist and besiege you. They will shout slogans and charge you one after another without fear of death. By that time, unless your country is really capable of defeating one against ten thousand, you will have no choice but to wait for it to perish.
Is this the power of faithXia Ya thought about it.
"But fortunately, the Papal State is a permanently neutral country. Basically, from the two hundred years since its establishment, the Papal State has never interfered in external affairs. Only when facing heretics will it send out a small number of troops to unite with other countries to exterminate them. So basically Denmark and There is no need to worry about either of the Papal States, because one of them has no strength, and the other is so powerful that we don’t need to worry about it.”
The corner of Xia Ya’s mouth twitched, which was obviously a good thing, but why did it make people feel so uncomfortable when it came from this fox’s mouth?
Merlin knocked on the table, and the rhythmic knocking made a clanging sound on the table.
"The real problem comes next The Roman Empire and the iron-blooded emperor sitting on the throne of Babylon are our real thorns."
