Lord of Lowland

Chapter 516 Rex Received the News

Royal Palace of Issara City, Kingdom of Soloran:
King Rex of Soloran is walking anxiously. Since the beginning of the war, our King Rex has hardly had a good night's sleep. To be honest, King Rex has made some miscalculations this time. It never expected that the Eluk Empire would be so tough in declaring war on itself this time, and it would devote all its power to the war. For a while, its borders could be said to be extremely tight.The troops were completely insufficient, and the comprehensive national strength of the Eluk Empire was far higher than that of the Soloran Kingdom. Once the war entered the war, all the knight orders of the Sololand Kingdom showed a defensive posture.However, the superior force of the Eluk Empire has been forcibly pressing on the defense line, and the defenses everywhere are very tight, almost killing His Majesty the King.

What's more terrible is that King Rex has not been able to send any reinforcements to the front to support the front. The transformation of the Knights of the Imperial Guard is still in progress.As the battle line tightens, the Imperial Guard Knights are becoming more and more arrogant now. They are the strongest armed force in Issara City. If they are not loyal to the king, then King Rex can't even sleep well, let alone Talk about the war with the Eluk Empire.

For months at war, King Rex had left the Knights of the Frontier alone to resist.Of course, he still made some necessary configurations, and sent some troops loyal to him in the northern border of the kingdom to the east and west lines to fight the region, watching the strong castle and defense line block the superior forces of the Aluk Empire from the border. outside.

As for Cecil in the middle line, King Rex didn't want to help at all. Although King Rex was quite afraid of Cecil, it was a matter of great importance to the country after all, and His Majesty the King couldn't count him on such a matter.But it is really lack of skills, King Rex must leave enough troops near the city of Issara to guard against the Knights of the Imperial Guard in the city, so that the most powerful knights can avoid rebellion against him.Now there are really strong enemies on the outside and dissidents on the inside. The King Rex market has a feeling of internal and external difficulties.I can only rely on Cecil to ask for more blessings, and hope that Cecil's ability to make me afraid can help me save myself from danger.

After a few months, through a series of unapproachable means, King Rex finally got to know the upper echelons of the Knights of the Guard, and allowed his confidants to fully control the Knights of the Guard.What makes King Rex happy is that in the past few months, the front line can barely support, the generals on the east and west lines are all his direct troops, and every day someone will send the first-hand battle report , although the east and west lines are very tight, fortunately, the Eluk Empire did not continue to invest in reserve forces, so it can barely withstand it now, and now I can finally free up my hands to send a few knights around to monitor the Knights of the Imperial Guard. The northern line went to support his own army, but what worried him most was Cecil's army. There were only two seemingly incompatible knights there. Once the enemy broke through from the center line, the entire open land of the kingdom would be exposed to the opponent's front. In the middle, so King Rex immediately sent a scout to contact Cecil, and asked him if he needed help there.

As a result, before the scouts were dispatched, two waves of people were ushered in. The first wave was of course Count Cecil's fast horse delivering newspapers, reporting the news of his great victory to King Rex. King Rex listened. The news seemed very unusual after that. For a moment, I couldn't accept the authenticity of the news. I held the messenger's collar and asked for a long time before confirming the news.He was simply overjoyed. He didn't expect that Cecil would unexpectedly achieve an unexpected victory!And instead contributed to the city of the Eluk Empire, the impact on the battle situation is simply unimaginable.It is not impossible for him to defeat the Eluk Empire across the board. King Rex has already started to think about it at this time.

Before the king was overjoyed, Cecil's messenger immediately reported to King Rex that Cecil had executed Grand Knight Bartley. Then he got up, but on the surface it didn't show at all, and outsiders still couldn't see what our majesty the king was thinking.

In fact, King Rex did not have any friendship with Grand Knight Bartley. Even if King Rex himself would find a way to kill this Grand Knight, he himself belonged to his younger brother Lucas.Moreover, this person's ability King Rex has long looked down on him, so Cecil's disposal of him is in line with King Rex's wishes to a certain extent, but King Rex is still furious in his heart More than that, the reason is very simple. Whether Grand Knight Bartlet deserves to die can only be decided by the king. Cecil, an ordinary lord, has no right to decide anyway. Today an earl can kill a knight leader, and tomorrow a duke If you can kill an earl, wouldn't the whole kingdom be messed up in the long run?As a king, the most important thing is for everyone to live under order. In this way, the king at the top of the pyramid of order is the most authoritative. If everyone ignores the authority of the king, then what is the difference between being a king and a salted fish?
However, King Rex had a strong city after all. Although he was extremely dissatisfied with Cecil in his heart, he did not show it at all on the surface.He even scolded Grand Knight Bartley to Cecil's messenger, and said that what Cecil did was very much in line with his wishes. He had long wanted to punish Grand Knight Bartley, but he didn't expect him to run away , then Cecil's removal of his official position is a matter of course.He didn't even obey orders, so it was only right that he was killed by Earl Cecil.I will never have any dissatisfaction with Earl Cecil because of this matter. Earl Cecil did what he wanted to do but failed, and he is very happy.

The messenger was relieved after receiving the king's reply, and Cecil directly killed Grand Knight Bartley. What do you think of Syl? When the messenger came, Corian asked him to explain this matter to the king clearly. The messenger was always worried that the king would not understand this matter. Seeing that the king was so considerate of his messenger The heart that had been hanging all the time was put on the ground.
