Proof of the Sun King

On the face of it, François was right.

The meeting resumed in the afternoon, and Morgiana relayed what she had received after contacting Ryan.

The king and the lady gave permission to the northern knights and nobles to conquer Orbian.

At the same time, Ryan also learned from Morgiana that the dukes were very resistant to building new fortresses. The knight king wondered if he was a little too hasty. He said before that he wanted to cherish and save the people's energy, but now he wants to build a lot. .

No, no, I can't be Yang Guang, Ryan thought that the big battle and the big infrastructure can really only be done at the same time. He finally laid the foundation for the Knight Kingdom, but don't overturn it casually.

At the same time, Ryan also found that he underestimated the fighting spirit of the northern knights and nobles, and underestimated Raun's eagerness to prove himself as the regent of the kingdom.

Raun and the nobles of the north were so eager to fight, which made Ryan also embarrassed. After careful consideration, the knight king decided to agree to Raun's proposal for the Obian expedition, but put forward three requirements.

The first is to unite with the local Mantra natives and the garrison of the Empire in Newland Province, and find out the local geography and some strange things about Obiang before fighting.

The second is that the king of knights asked the knights and nobles of the north to organize their own troops and raise supplies, and this war must be all over before the spring ploughing.

Third, Ryan demanded that the war must focus on looting Obiang's resources and destroying the living power of the barbarians, not too deep inland, not too much war.

The requirements of these three points are relatively strict, but the northern knights and nobles were very happy to see that the knight king was finally willing to let them go to work. Prepare to organize an expedition of 20,000 people to attack Obiang.

Obiang Island is about 500 kilometers away from the mainland of Brittany. It takes about two weeks to arrive by sailing. Now it is early December, and spring ploughing will begin at the end of March next year, leaving it to the northern nobles. Our time is running out.

For the nobles of the south, what Ryan asked them was to build a permanent fortress on the road from the Black Mountains to Tyrell and the Blighted Swamp.

The King of Knights expressed his concerns about the Skaven in the south, and the idea of ​​the King of Knights was also shared by most of the dukes. Unlike the Empire's strong denial of the existence of the Skaven, the Bretons were in the wood elves. With the help of the Skaven, he clearly knew the existence of the Skaven, and there were many wars between knights and the Skaven in history.

In this way, the national policy of attacking the north and defending the south was formulated. In addition, Ryan also ordered Morgiana and Lawn to send more people to detect the movements of Norsca and the northern barbarians. This action is very dangerous. , but it is necessary.

Time went back slightly to after Morgiana and Lawn discussed it.

"Also, when will you be back?" At the end of the communication, Morgiana asked resentfully.

"It will probably take another two months." Ryan said softly to the reflection of the pure water in the jade bowl.

"As soon as possible." Morgiana's voice was full of anticipation and resentment, her face was reflected in the water, and her expression was quite rich: "I'm not in a hurry to ask you to come back to accompany me, many things were originally You can leave it to Sulia to do it, but you take Sulia away this time, and it will be difficult for the dukes to make a decision."

you're lying! Ryan looked at Morgiana's resentful expression with a black face. The witch of the lake **** was cold and arrogant. At the same time, because she was in control of power all the year round, she was even more cold and inhumane. Her expression only changed when she was with herself. So rich, Ryan knew that Morgiana must be counting the time and looking forward to his return.

However, there was an agreement between the two parties, and Ryan couldn't say anything else. The king nodded: "Then let's do this first, and be sure to investigate the movements of the barbarians."

After getting a positive reply from Morgiana, Ryan put away the jade bowl and turned off the communication.

Suria was sitting next to him. The queen of knights listened to the whole question and answer. The graceful female knight was about to say something, but she saw Ryan stretch out her hands. Suria quickly understood what her husband meant. She smiled tenderly, Leaning into Ryan's arms: "what's the matter, my husband, why are you troubled again?"

"I'm a little too nervous." Ryan hugged Sulia, groping softly on her beautiful long legs wrapped in thick black velvet pantyhose, feeling the silky and delicate hand, the warm fragrant nephrite in her arms , Ryan held his wife on his lap: "I was so anxious, I almost made a serious mistake."

"Seriously wrong, are you referring to repairing the fortress?" Su Liya immediately understood what Ryan meant, and the queen stretched out her jade finger and tapped on Ryan's forehead: "You are in a hurry, we just repaired it just now. After connecting the North and South Grand Canal, the Landoin Grand Canal connects the Sandnes River in the north with the Grismore River, the Chinon River and then the Berleon River in the south, which is already a great project. It's a big project, you should give everyone a break before thinking about building the fortress."

"Well, I want to be Li Zhi, not Yang Guang." Ryan nodded, and the King of Knights knew that he was subconsciously anxious again.

"Who is that?" Surya didn't understand.

"That's the story of the two emperors of the ancient dynasty of Aurora...Let me tell you." Ryan hugged Sulia like this and told the story, and Olika soon came in and became interested. listen carefully.

After telling a long story to Suria's heart's content, Ryan motioned for him to go out for a walk.

Coming out of the king's suite, Ryan met Talleyrand head-on. The elf nobleman was leaning on a cane, and when he saw Ryan appeared, he immediately showed a pleasing smile: "Your Majesty, good morning, it's a pleasure to meet you here. , your presence makes the sky clear."

"..." Ryan looked at the cloudy sky with lightning and thunder, wondering whether Talleyrand was flattering or sarcastic: "Mr. Talleyrand, are you still used to living on a battleship?"

"Fortunately, it's better than living in a cowshed with Charis." Talleyrand made a dangerous joke, and he bent down humbly: "I mean Charis' manor and cattle. The shed is about the same, not that the cowshed is about the same as Charris' manor, Your Majesty."

"You have a special sense of humour." Ryan nodded with a smile, he noticed that Orika came out of the king's suite, and when Talleyrand saw Orika, it was like a mouse meeting a cat. Trembling, his body trembled: "What's the matter, Mr. Talleyrand, is Olika so scary?"

Does the king know who his maid is? Talleyrand looked at Orika's malicious warning eyes, swallowed, and propped up the deck hard, and smiled perfunctorily: "As an Asul, this is something that can't be done."

This explanation made sense, and Ryan didn't go into it.

The three walked a few steps along the deck, and Talleyrand responded fluently, and the high elf was always capable of some humorous one-liners, even when Ryan asked him, "What would you do if Finnuba and I fell into the water?" Who to save?” Talleyrand answered with great humor and wit: “Your Majesty, you are so great, you must be able to swim!”

After walking around for a while, a wounded old guard passed in front of the three. He was on crutches like Talleyrand. Lane recognized him. His name was Yves, an old guard from Montfort. In the previous Great Dragon Fjord sea battle, he was concentrated by the sputtering of the undead artillery, smashed his legs, shattered his bones, and was seriously injured.

Thanks to the high elves' excellent medicine and super high medical level, an old guard like Yves was originally going to be forced to retire, but now he only needs to rest for three months and wait for his bones to grow before returning to the battlefield .

On this point alone, the large amount of drugs given by the high elves made Ryan's trip to Ulthuan pay back all the costs, not to mention that the Kingdom of Safri is willing to partner with Ryan to set up a hospital in Musilon.

"Your Majesty, look at that soldier, he is lame, but he is very strong physically and mentally." Talleyrand pointed to Yves humorously, and then to himself: "But, Your Majesty, I have I knew years ago that I was lame, not only in my legs but also in my body and mind."

"Anyone can stand up and face everything." Ryan put his hands behind his back, and the majesty of the knight king almost overflowed: "Physical disability is not a reason, Talleyrand, I believe you can be somewhere else. Find your place."

"But certainly not in Ulthuan." Talleyrand shook his head. "As long as I'm in Ulthuan, I'm lame, in every sense."

The elites all like handsome men and beautiful women, and even Tigris was discriminated against when he was young, not to mention Talleyrand, who is not good-looking, poor in appearance, and physically disabled. Lane nodded secretly in his heart, the discrimination was true. everywhere.

"But in the old world, in the human world, I, Talleyrand, was a sane person. Not only was I a sane person, but I was superior to others!" Talleyrand then laughed at himself: "Humans are accustomed to the elegance and wisdom of elves. There is also longevity, so I think of the old world, I can't solve my broken heart, but I can change the environment, half short can become half tall, and the thing named Talleyrand has finally found someone who can live as an equal, really A good deal."

This guy is really smart! Ryan's face remained calm.

"Talleyrand?"

"I am here, my lord."

"Would you like to be my foreign minister to Nur?"

"Honored and delighted."

…………I am the dividing line of smart people…………

A few months passed, and with the arrival of the spring of 2514 in the imperial calendar and the return of His Majesty the King of Knights Lane, Britannia also ushered in the most glorious era in its history.

This era has been called the "Golden Age" by all historians and writers of later generations.

Politically, the great knight king "Unifier" Ryan Macado's reforms in Brittany continued to deepen. He further restricted the privileges of the great aristocracy, eased the contradiction between the serf class and the knight class, and abolished a large number of extortionate taxes and miscellaneous taxes. , which greatly improved the living standards of the Brittanians.

In terms of personnel, the bureaucracy that Lane had been brewing for many years finally began to appear in Brittany. With the assistance of several major churches and nobles, circuit courts and officials began to appear. Most of them were ambitious farmers, workers, and officials. The poor nobles and small traders were formed after being trained by the church, and the legal interpretation and arbitration rights of local noble lords or village elders and village elders were withdrawn.

At the same time, Lane began to revise the laws of Brittany to protect the interests of the emerging freedmen and peasant classes, limit the privileges of the nobles and limit their exploitation of the serfs in the territory, and at the same time Lane officially wrote "Incompetence is a sin" Into the law, since then, there are only two choices for the wastes who cannot train qualified knights within four generations. One is to be confiscated and become free people, and the other is to participate in the Araby expedition.

Economically, the Fairy of the Lake dropped a super bombshell.

After a lapse of thousands of years, the Church of the Fairy in the Lake officially announced a tax reduction, and the church tithing will be changed from ten tax to fifteen tax.

Don't underestimate these few percentage points, the Church of the Fairy in the Lake gave up as much as hundreds of thousands of gold crowns for this one item alone.

Everyone in the whole country knelt down to thank the goddess, and many serfs shed tears until dawn, kowtowing, thanking the goddess for her gift, and their madness for the fairies in the lake reached a new height.

On the military front, the Obiang Expedition led by Lawn won a great victory in the Obiang Expedition.

In mid-January 2514, the 25,000-strong Aubion expedition made up of northern knights landed on Aubion Island under the **** of the Poseidon fleet and the Le-Angoulan fleet, and their opponent was North. The Karman tribe "Vanaheimlin" is a group of more than 10,000 barbarian warriors and hundreds of Chaos Warriors, thousands of Chaos Marauder cavalry, as well as more than a dozen warbands of swamp monsters and many Chaos Giants. beast.

Yes, in the imagination, the enemy should have such a large scale, but the nobles of the northern knights soon discovered that the resistance of the Vanaheimlin tribe was much weaker than expected.

The first battle was the Battle of Corpse Monster Island. In this battle, Raun and others made complete preparations for a tough battle, but the expedition army soon discovered that the defenders of Corpse Monster Island actually only had a few barbarian predator war gangs. , plus barbarian marauder riders of no more than a hundred people and marauder spearmen of no more than two hundred.

This is a joke for the expedition army that numbered more than 25,000 and bought a large number of firearms from the Mousillon factory.

At first, Lawn thought that the cunning Norsca might believe in the Eagle God, so he marched cautiously, but when he rushed into the core area of ​​the barbarian settlement, he only encountered a dozen barbarian champion warriors. .

That's it?

Raun personally led a group of Holy Grail Knights to slaughter more than a dozen barbarian champion warriors.

Immediately afterwards, the Obiang Expeditionary Force began its righteous looting journey. For some reason, there were very few barbarian tribal troops on the island, and almost all of them only left the most basic defending forces, even those legendary ones. Chaos Warriors and Chaos Champions are gone.

No one understands why this is, but there is no doubt that this is a godsend opportunity. Since then, the Obiang expedition has plundered unimaginable things on Obiang Island, which is rich in products, especially various magical ores and rich in gold and silver. Abundant supplies~www.wuxiaspot.com~ With the progress of the Obiang expedition, almost all the ships in Britania that can sail and carry goods all go to Obiang to "pull goods".

Even so, it pulled back and forth three times.

Several consecutive victories have made the Obian expedition a little high. Fortunately, Lawen is still able to restrain his subordinates, but even as commander and regent, he cannot suppress his subordinates from knights, nobles and serfs who want to move towards Obian Island. The requirement to go deep.

Count Clement Clement led more than 2,000 troops to the vicinity of Conquata in the interior of Obiang, wanting to obtain more spoils.

Then, the entire army, along with hundreds of knights, disappeared, and more than 2,000 people seemed to have completely evaporated from the thick fog of Obiang.

Lawn personally led the carefully selected elite troops from the more than 3,000 expedition forces, and cooperated with the spells of the prophet of the lake **** and the large magic scrolls obtained on credit from Morgiana and Veronica, and went deep into the depths of Obiang. , looking for traces of these two thousand troops.

They only found a few terrifying scenes of large-scale chaos ritual ceremonies. Dozens of people went crazy on the spot, and their sanity returned to zero. Lawn immediately ordered to retreat, but the army was still attacked by a large group of chaos demons. Fortunately, the chaos demons could not exist for a long time. In the mortal world, coupled with the elites led by Lawen, after dropping more than 300 corpses and praying for the guidance of the goddess, Lawen led the army to successfully withdraw from the dense fog in the depths of Obiang Island.

The regent of the kingdom suppressed the fear in his heart, he announced to everyone that he was about to win the class, and was ready to end the great expedition of Obiang.

At the same time, Lawn's heart was even more strange and vigilant about what the northern barbarians were planning.

"Her Majesty Ryan and Morgiana must be informed immediately about the discovery in the depths of Obiang!"

"What are the barbarians doing?"
