Proof of the Sun King

Estalia can already feel a touch of heat in May.

The Twilight sisters were actually not very interested in leaving Brittany, and the generals and bureaucrats in Lane's direct line actually didn't approve of Devon Hill's risk of leaving the country.

However, in this matter, the Green Knight, who has always been very strict, spoke up. The half body of the kingdom and the incarnation of chivalry virtues indicate that a boy must be tempered by war to grow into a man.

Frederick on the opposite side of the mountain is only 19 years old this year, and he is already an excellent general who has played in more than 20 games.

On the back of the forest dragon, Devonhill looked down.

I saw a dense crowd crowded together, fleeing along the road towards the north. The carriages, ox carts, handcarts and even trailers had completely blocked the road.

how many people? Devon Hill couldn't figure it out, because the long roads and crowds were almost endless, and Estalia, which was located on the plains, was naturally not the only road that could pass through. On both sides of the road, there were more crowds.

"A lot of human beings, I can feel their fear, these people have lost their courage to face powerful enemies." Nestra looked at the panic-stricken humans with compassion: "They must regain their beliefs. "

"Otherwise there is only death, or more terrible than death," said Allohan.

"The plague is spreading here." Nestra added: "If we don't act, then the only outcome is destruction."

"Destruction isn't bad, and then we can have a big fight." Allohan licked his lips.

"You must control yourself, Allohan!"

"You must also control your compassion, Nestra!"

Devonhill had now learned to block the sisters' habitual quarrel, and the young baron focused all his attention on the bottom.

Looking through the binoculars, a group of young couples are pulling a pair of children and fleeing in panic. Maybe all their wealth is what is on the carriage behind them. In this chaotic era, the husband has to take out his own weapons. ——The rapier paired with the musket to drive away anyone who coveted the family's property, while the mother sat in the carriage and looked at everyone with vigilant eyes.

Only the boy focused his eyes on the sky, and he soon found out.

Flocks of cavalry, a troop of Britannia royal pegasus and forest dragons fly above the sky!

Here comes the Bretons! We are saved!

Cheers echoed in the crowd. Seeing this scene, Duke Casson couldn't help waving his hands in the sky, and he immediately got more cheers.

But Devon Hill couldn't show any smile. The baron knew very well that their little people would have no effect at all, and the Twilight Sisters would be willing to come, just to see Ryan and his face. .

As for the Duke of Casson, his team of Royal Pegasus knights are really powerful, but this group of people... they didn't regard their own as their masters, they just stopped by to watch the excitement, and even to some extent, they came to inspect in advance own new territory.

No matter how loyal Duke Casson is to his father and his family, he is still a knight noble after all... Devonhill smiled bitterly in his heart.

Father, your prestige and strength are really too high, too high, too high, your personal prestige completely overwhelms the kingdom's prestige, everyone obeys you, worships you, and agrees with you. Not the throne!

This group of airmen headed towards the entire capital of Estalia, Magritte.

Two more days passed, and the group finally arrived at Magritte.

At this time, the formerly great city was in chaos, and the Duke of Magritte, Lucio Sunwatcher and his heir, Baron Felipe Sunwatcher, had no idea where they had gone.

In Magritte's State Guest House, the dragon landed, the Royal Pegasus Knights lined up in two rows, a team of knights welcomed the arrival of Devon Hill, and there was a square table in the middle of the State Guest House.

On the other side of the table sat Enzo Moretti, Grand Master of the Magritte Knights.

If anyone still has an impression, this Enzo Moretti once had contact with Ryan. When Ryan came to look for the Seagod Trident, he had reached a truce agreement with Ryan and others.

"My baron, at this time, you brought this person to Magritte. We really do not know whether to be happy, or to welcome you with any other expression." Enzo Moretti and a dozen He was a little older than a year ago, but he was still very energetic. Behind him, a group of Magritte knights in gorgeous armor lined up in a large line. It's all sent out."

"I'm here to assess the situation." Devonhill clasped his hands together, and the baron sat in his seat, he looked very serious: "Listen to me, Master Moretti, we have also met in history. In this case, it was the period of the Great Red Flame Expedition and the Araby Holy War. We also worked together to fight against the enemy. The desert people of Araby once pushed Magritte into a corner. It was very bad, but we still won. Final victory, isn't it?"

"But the situation is different this time, my baron, do you understand the situation?" Master Enzo Moretti and the knights of the Magritte Knights behind him all looked at Devonhill with strange eyes , this young to appear very immature baron.

"Situation, what's the situation?" Devonhill read a different taste from the face of Enzo Moretti's teacher.

Enzo Moretti hesitated for a while, as if he was weighing something, but then he smiled self-deprecatingly, and then told Devon Hill the news: "Okay, well, I can't hide it for long, tell you Well, my baron, in fact, His Excellency Duke Lucio Sunwatcher, and his heir, His Excellency Felipe Sunwatcher, are already dead!"

"What?!!!" Devonhill's eyes widened.

Yes, the ruler of Magritte, the most important city in Estalia, the Sunstrider... ahem, the main bloodline of the Sunwatcher family must be cut off.

As mentioned earlier, after learning that the "strange beastman" had perished Tobalo, the Duke of Magritte Lucio Sunwatcher and his two sons decided to use Magritte's army to support. , unfortunately, the city was already occupied halfway, and it was also attacked by the Skaven.

In the chaos, the Knights of the Magritte Knights, the Knights of the Eagles and the Knights of the Spear of Justice fought **** battles to protect the Duke and his family, but they were outnumbered. In the chaos, both Lucio and Felipe were killed Killed by Warlord Calvin, the difference is that Lucio was struck by lightning from the Skaven engineer and burned to black coal, while Felipe was cut into pieces by "a cutter like a hamster wheel" several paragraphs.

The arrogant Duke Lucio tried to establish prestige and meritorious deeds by "conquering the Beastmen", but he died in battle with his two sons.

In order to prevent the resistance from being completely disintegrated, Enzo Moretti, the great mentor of the Magritte Knights, had to order the news of his death to be concealed.

The southern kingdoms are still believed to be attacked by "special beastmen".

Of course, in this battle, due to the desperate resistance of the knights and the death of all members of the Duke's personal guard, the Skaven Skaven also suffered huge losses and temporarily stopped to rest (by the way, a few large-scale human flesh banquets were held).

"Very good." After a brief hesitation in Devonhill, the baron regained his composure, and he pondered for a minute: "This is not right, my great master, you have taken over the entire city, all financial, military, Order, am I right?"

"Yes, for the time being, it won't last long." Enzo nodded.

"For so long, tell us, tell us how the Bretons, you, and these Magritte knights, plan to fight back?" Devonhill whispered, "I need to hear the plan."

"Plan? No plan." The big tutor spread his hands and tilted his head.

"No plan?!" Devonhill first stretched his head forward, the baron opened his mouth, and finally even laughed: "Ha~ God, don't tell me, the knight brother who experienced the Arab jihad How could they degenerate to this point?"

"Listen, our country is also facing a huge threat now. Thousands of Norsca longships are constantly attacking our north shore. In the territory, Beastmen and Greenskins are frequent. Even in the palace, everyone is wondering whether to form an army or not. Come to support you in the endless debate, the virtue of chivalry bound us, but there is no doubt that the virtue of defending the home and the country is based on the spirit of chivalry. If we can't even protect our own homeland, how can we reach out to you? Help?" Devonhill looked embarrassed, with an "I'm doing this for your own good" expression, and he said righteous and actually baseless words.

Nestra, who was standing behind Devonhill, almost laughed. This man, speaking like this, is exactly like his mother, Queen Surya.

On the other hand, Alohan had an icy expression on her face, and she felt a headache when she thought of the stern mentor of the Green Knight.

"Listen, my baron, we want to fight back, of course we don't want to lose our city, our country, but the previous defeat has cost us capital, and only 8,000 of the 20,000-man army survived, and the last There are less than 2,000 people who are willing to stand by Magritte!" Enzo closed his eyes angrily: "Every sword in the city has been taken away, what do we rely on to defend? We rely on more than a thousand swords in the warehouse. Rabbit swords, spears and shields? Is it by the grandfather-level artillery that has a history of dozens or even hundreds of years on our city walls? Or by organizing militias? I checked the barracks, and there are not even 200 sets of breastplates!"

Devon Hill was stunned.

Only the Duke of Casson nodded slightly. He knew about Estalia's situation. Simply put, Estalia has been in peace for too long, too long, too long. Since the Arab jihad, there has been no experience here. over the war.

In Estalia, the army is closer to the guard of honor, and the folk martial arts are very weak. Even the popular fencing and swordsmanship is more trained as a "performance" and "competition" rather than an actual combat project.

Most importantly, Estalians have a habit.

They never wear armor!

The reason is very simple, the rapier competition is about speed, dexterity, agility and lightness, of course not wearing armor!

Therefore, Estalia's army wears less armor, and the number of armor in stock is extremely small.

If it wasn't for the three knights, Magritte Knights, Eagle Knights, and Justice Spear Knights, who had the habit of wearing armor, Estalia would have been smashed by a wave of Skaven and then perished!

Not to mention the issue of firearms. The 500 new firearms ordered from Noor had all been lost in the previous battle. Enzo Moretti could only find 300 spare firearms. Maintenance and maintenance, about 30% of them cannot be used. Magritte has about 200 defending artillery pieces, most of which are grandfather style, and some have not been used for hundreds of years. The most terrible thing is that Enzo checked the artillery warehouse. .

The warehouse is full of wooden boxes, but they are all filled with stones. Only the ten boxes at the door and in the corridor are filled with shells.

Coming out of the State Guest House, Devonhill's face was ashen: "We don't need to stay here, go back and tell everyone, get ready to snipe the Skaven army in Billy Barry, and welcome Estalia's army at the same time. Refugees."

"Fortunately, we have another person in Brittany who can take over all this with integrity."

The Bretons came and went fast, and the Twilight sisters left behind their contribution, an aerial raid, and two volleys of Falcons from Kunos put Ikt-Claws out of Ratman range. After the carefully designed and manufactured 17 Dimension Stones were bombarded with lightning, Devon Hill immediately retreated.

At the same time, Enzo Moretti, the great mentor of the Magritte Knights, officially ordered to give up Magritte.

Hundreds of thousands of refugees came to Britannia under the protection and supervision of the knights of the Knights.

…………I’m escaping the shameful and useless dividing line…………

The Estalians abandoned when Magritte began to flee north.

Silver Mountains, Eternal Peak, Infinite Peak, Karaz-a-Karak, the capital of the dwarves.

A meeting of dwarven kings has just ended.

The High King Thorgrim-The Resentful was very annoyed. He sat on the dwarven throne in the Throne Hall and could not recover for a long time.

He was furious at the cowardice and evasion of the dwarves.

At this meeting of dwarf kings, several dwarf kings have publicly proposed an idea - to close all dwarven fortresses, keep their doors behind closed doors, and ignore the affairs of the outside world.

Granny is on top, how did we dwarves become like this?

The High King rejected this issue in the most drastic way, and the dwarves must not be trapped in the lonely city and fight on their own.

However, when the High King proposed an idea to abandon some unimportant dwarven fortresses and gather his troops on the Eternal Peak to prepare for the final battle, he was unanimously opposed by all the dwarf kings~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Among them, Bellegar opposed the most fiercely. The King of the Eight Peaks scolded Thorgreen and said that you are not a real dwarf at all. No dwarf will abandon his homeland. If a dwarf really wants to usher in his last moment, then He Bellega would accept it calmly, instead of giving up the Bafeng Mountain fortress that he had gone through untold hardships to get back in order to survive.

Emotionally, Thorgreen can understand Bellegar's decision, but from the perspective of the dwarves' grand strategy, cooperation is stronger, and division is weak. The commanded dwarf kings opposed it, especially the Butcher King, the King of Seagate Pass, and the King of Torrent Pass.

This ruined Thorgrin's plans, and to make matters worse, the dwarven kings left in anger.

"Escape is shameful, but useful, escape is shameful, and useless." Thorgreen sat on the throne, and the High King sighed softly: "It seems that in the next war, our Eternal Peak will only be I can rely on my own strength.”

"Let them come!" Brockson, the chief engineer of the dwarves, was annoyed: "They will need the help of Eternal Peak, and they will regret today's rudeness!"

"Stop talking about that." Thorgreen-The Resentful sighed: "How's the Colossus?"

"After many debugs, it's ready to go into battle, but I hope there will be a little time for me to continue fine-tuning." Brockson nodded.

"You'll get that time." The Supreme King thought of the giant statues, and he felt a little more confident in his heart.

Greni, Grimnir, and Valaya above, thank you for leaving such a rich legacy to the dwarves.

If these colossi can be used properly, perhaps... there is hope.
