Proof of the Sun King
Chapter 329: , summer breeze
?This year's summer in Brittany is relatively cool and not as hot as before, which is good news for the serfs in the Earl of Glamorgan, and it is rarer that this year, the knights did not hold Large-scale hunting or drill activities.
Because in the first battle of the Northern Chaos Invasion this spring, the knights and gentlemen of the entire earldom have been trained enough. What they need now is to rest. The northern refugees who fled at the beginning of the year have begun to get used to the life in the earldom and work hard. Under the circumstances, the products of the earldom became more and more abundant, and it had begun to appear that there was enough food for two or three months in the serfs' homes.
This is very rare in Brittany.
Five new villages have been opened up in the Xialong Forest, and new residents have moved in one after another. After repeated killings, the Beastmen tribe in the forest has been unable to make any waves. Of course, the Earl also ordered that residents are not allowed to go too deep. Forests, after all, clearing forests is a long process.
As usual, in the afternoon, Ryan looked for a leisure time, and the Earl himself seemed to be sitting behind the desk in his office, working in a serious manner.
But in fact this guy is fishing, his maids Olika and Emilia are serving in the room, Ryan's flag-holder Holy Grail Knight Armand, Sir Gerald of Winford, brother-in-law Marquis of Winford Yu Lius and Calad, the Earl of Garamente, who was about to start his Holy Grail expedition, were all in Ryan's office. Everyone was eating iced watermelons and blowing the air conditioner made by Teresa.
"Lane, you'll still enjoy it. I always thought that Lord François built a cool courtyard in the castle to be extravagant, but you can actually think of using magic to cool down." Watermelon, gnawing at a big mouth, gnawed a lot of juice on the face.
"A place like the castle is okay in winter, but not easy to live in in summer, so I have to make some changes." Ryan's face was a little unsightly. It took him two days to get out of the tower of the fairy in the lake. Fortunately, he The strength of her body is far beyond that of ordinary legendary powerhouses. Otherwise, she may not be able to deal with Mogianna. The witch of the lake **** is very obsessed with him in private, and she is willing to cooperate with him. Lots of new poses unlocked.
About this matter, Ryan and Orika secretly discussed it in the bed. He thought about it for a long time and knew that he could only discuss it with the dark elves.
Olika's statement is this: "Master, it's really comfortable to be with you, especially when absorbing psionic energy, every time I can't help it... At this point, me and Moji Anna feels the same, and Morgiana...she's probably in her teens too, and once something is opened, it can't be closed again."
"Okay." Ryan said no more.
After a long time, Ryan has begun to have his own small circle. The people he gathered are young talents from Brittany, all in their thirties and forties. He noticed that Callard's expression was very depressed. Apparently the deaths of Eulers and Anala hit him hard.
Callard wasn't crushed by setbacks, he was stronger and more determined.
"By the way, I remember that the Duke of Connecticut, Lawn-Leo Cornwall, launched the chivalry war to try to retake Mousillon again?" Ryan tried to change the topic: "How is the situation?"
After defeating the Chaos invasion, because Curona assembled a large number of troops, Richard simply ordered the Duke of Lawen to lead more than 10,000 troops to Musilon, wanting to recapture the cursed city of Musilon in one go.
According to François's grapevine from Curona, Richard has already had the idea of abdicating, and he wants to pass his kingship to Laun-Leo Cornwall, if Laun can take back Musi Long Zhigong is Richard's designated heir to the throne, so his ascension to the throne is almost a certainty.
Richard's plan was also very clear. The entire knight kingdom knew that a huge army of vampires was inexplicably annihilated when they went to Lane's territory. Musilon's vampires lost their strength and could no longer take the initiative to attack. Be able to settle down in Musillon's corner and work hard to restore the military.
Therefore, Richard's plan was that, just because of Ryan's reasons, Musillon's vampires were seriously injured, so he let his cousin Lawen be the "peaches picker" and regain Musillon.
"Yes, the Duke of Lawn did lead an army of more than 10,000 people into the Musilon expedition." Callard nodded, his tone was a little melancholy: "But as it has been for hundreds of years, the Duke of Lawn's army is in the Under Mousillon, he returned without success again, and the Duke of Lawn originally planned to besiege the city, but in the end he chose to retreat."
"Retreat?" Julius folded his arms around his chest. Recently, his stern face has become warmer, and he is obviously happy that his sister is about to get married. He has always felt that if Surya wants to marry, she can only marry the Holy Grail Knight. Young and capable.
"Yes, retreat." Gerald nodded, and the cousin of François said with a wry smile: "Duke Laun has won every encounter after entering Mousillon and defeated every vampire's attack. Raid, but after all he had no way to fight against the vampire inhabitants of the entire Mousillon, even if the Duke of Lawn personally confronted and killed a Black Holy Grail Knight, even if he led a hundred guards and defeated five hundred undead Black Knights, but Mou Xilong The huge vampire corruption and resistance of all the inhabitants in the place of Long made the supply and logistics of the entire Knights Road army very difficult."
Armand nodded, and the last bloodline of the Duke of Aquitaine continued: "The huge loss and logistical inadequacy exhausted the strength of the knight army. In the repeated harassment and attacks of vampires, the knight army became exhausted, and finally We can only withdraw, and before withdrawing, Lawn left behind 2,000 troops to strengthen the sentry and epidemic prevention belt around Mousillon."
"Hmm~" Ryan thought about a series of things.
This place in Musilon is indeed very difficult to handle. Except for the high wall of tens of meters in Musilon City, the corruption of the land is too serious. The corruption of vampires spreads on the land of Musilon, and it is difficult for any army to last for a long time. Staying in that place, Duke Lawn was forced to stop and rest every ten kilometers in the process of advancing.
And from Ryan's point of view, every time Lawn's army goes to a place, it will definitely rush into the town like a whirlwind, set up a "Holy Grail Court", and put all the vampires and human beings corrupted by vampires who have been identified to be burned at the stake.
This method is the method of justice, and also meets the requirements of chivalry, but in doing so, Lawn will mean that he will be the enemy of the entire Musillon and will be caught in the sea of people's war.
Vampires are actually divided into many factions, some are ambitious, and some just want to live a quiet life. Some high-level vampires are no different from human life. Not all vampires are planning how to destroy human beings. Many vampires are already in human society. Rooted, and Mousillon too.
Raun saw that the method of burning one was a way to completely solve the problem, but the cruelty of this method put Musillon at risk, forcing everyone in Musilon to fight against the army of knights.
Under such circumstances, Raun could not quickly capture the cursed city of Musilon, the supply lines were attacked again and again, the army was exhausted, and the only thing he could do was withdraw.
Richard's plan to make Lawn pick peaches failed, the unwinnable war had to be suspended, and Brittany was exhausted and could no longer fight.
In the end, Richard added the title of regent to the Duke of Lawn and began to let him help him handle government affairs. As for when he will mention the transfer of the throne, he will have to wait for the next opportunity.
"Musilon is really a tough bone." Julius said disappointedly: "After this Chaos invasion, the power of the kingdom has declined very much. I don't know when the next time I will send troops to retake Musilon."
"Send troops again? Yuri, I don't think it's a problem to recover Musillon." Ryan touched his chin, and he said as he thought: "I think even if we fight a few more times, this is the end. First of all, Musillon's few How do we break through the ten-meter-high city wall? Rely on trebuchets? Besides, if we fight Musilon again, we will definitely face serious vampire corruption. The main thing now is to recuperate.”
"...Well." Julius could only nod his head: "That's all there is to it now."
"The northern part of the kingdom has suffered heavy losses, and it may take five to ten years to restore its previous scale." Holy Grail Knight Armand also said: "And after two wars, the nobles of the kingdom have become war-weary, and it will take time to recover Musilon. consider."
"Yeah." After the watermelon was eaten, the knights also left, leaving only Ryan, Orika and Emilia in the room.
The Count was still thinking about it, and after thinking a lot, he shook his head: "The recovery of Musilon is still a long-term plan."
"Lane, vampires are not so easy to deal with." Emilia shook her head: "Since the empire lost the province of Sylvania five hundred years ago, it has never successfully ruled that place. Exhausted, all the vampire castles in Sylvania were razed to the ground, but since then, no nobleman has been willing to rule Sylvania, and now they are left with only ruins and a few villages, No one dares to go to Sylvania every year except when the Empire sends people in to collect taxes."
Ryan smiled bitterly when he heard the words, isn't that the case with Mu Xilong?
It is very easy for a vampire to corrupt a piece of land, and it only takes a while for shadows and death to affect a piece of land, and neither the living nor the dead will rest in peace.
So what about purifying a piece of land?
It takes tens of hundreds of years to purify a piece of land, and a lot of large-scale magic is required.
Whether it is the Empire or Brittany, they all face a problem, that is, it is easy to defeat vampires, and it is difficult and long to purify the land corrupted by vampires.
In layman's terms, this place can't be washed.
So how do I get Musillon back?
Ryan looked out the window, lost in thought.
After thinking about it for a long time, Ryan couldn't think of any particularly good way. He suddenly felt that someone should give him some advice.
The Count himself smirked and said to Emilia: "Emilia, you have worked hard for you, you should go to rest first."
"Okay." The little maid saw Ryan's strange smile. Emilia, who had followed Ryan for several years, still didn't know what Ryan wanted to do? The little maid glanced at the count with a bit of resentment, raised her skirt and saluted, and then withdrew.
The dark elf found that Ryan had set his eyes on him, and Olika's face gradually turned red: "Lord...Master?"
"Hey hey~ Olika, I have something to discuss with you." Ryan picked up the dark elf by the waist and kissed her cheek: "Old way, I'll go back to the room and talk~"
"Ah! Master~" The dark elf put his arms around Ryan's neck and said shyly, "Master, you are always like this."
…………
Bellega spent more than a month escaping from Haimen Pass all the way to Karak-Breeze Castle. At this time, King Angland's funds were basically exhausted, and the group was quite embarrassed. They crossed through the ley lines network. At the southern end of the Black Mountains and Gray Mountains, reach the Breeze Castle.
Along the way, this team of several hundred people has experienced several battles. There are many green-skin fortresses in the ley lines network, but I don’t know why, most of the green-skin tribes encountered along the way are lethargic, lacking in fighting spirit, and green-skin fortresses. They were all tattered, as if they had just been looted~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lord Baylor and his party defeated the enemy relatively smoothly.
At this time, Breeze Castle is already in sight.
Karak - King of Breeze Castle, Lorek - the Hand of Granite heard that Belgar had brought his own people to seek refuge, opened the gates of the city, and used the etiquette between kings to warmly welcome the group of people, and arranged for them to stay, In the evening, Lorek held a grand banquet to welcome Bellegar's message, and he didn't mention Bellegar's expedition to the Eight Peaks, which undoubtedly brought a lot of comfort to Bellegar's heart, and the pain of defeat was also taken away. Diluted a bit.
There are also differences among the dwarves. The dwarves who are closer to the Roof Mountains in the east are relatively stubborn. Among them, the dwarf kings like Karak-Iron Peak and Karak-Clarion don't even trust firearms, and still prefer to use bows. Crossbows fight with axes and hammers.
The dwarves who are closer to the west are relatively more tactful and flexible, because they have more contact with humans. King Rorek of Karak-Breeze Castle is such a person. Breeze Castle is located in the middle of the Grey Mountains. Sandwiched between the Empire and Brittany, trading with both countries, and often handling goods from Marienburg, the dwarves here are better at speaking and diplomacy.
"Bellegar, my friend, what kind of wind brought you here?" At the banquet, Lorek said to Bellegar, "What a rare visitor!"
"It's like this. The Angland clan's journey on the expedition is not going well. I decided to preserve the strength of the clan and fight again in the future." Bellegar stroked his white beard, the white beard of King Angland. Bound by a lot of burlap and some copper rings, there is nothing unusual from the outside: "I will trouble you a little during this time, Rorek."
"Of course." I want to chat with more like-minded people about "", WeChat pays attention to "Youdu Literature", chats about life, and finds confidants~
