Reborn Awakening (GL)

For a while, the news of the loss of the territory came back to Taran one after another, much faster than everyone expected. The Far East, which was once barren and unable to raise troops, was now able to be self-sufficient and even recruit The defeated soldiers all the way became stronger.

The so-called "loyalty" has always been insignificant in the face of death and profit, and these loyal people who value life more than life have finally lost the right to choose their own destiny under the current situation, and have become abandoned children who look forward to support. Persevered until the last moment, cursing the enemy who broke the city, dying with regret.

Mo Ni stood on the dilapidated city tower, looking at the blood under her feet and outside the city that had never been washed away by the heavy rain, looked down at Bai De who was sitting in a wheelchair, and said, "Such a bloody soldier is blind, and then People who shouldn't follow..."

"They just chose to believe what they wanted to believe, and regarded it as the only inviolable belief. We knew that everything we did was for Ainota, but in their eyes, we were the rebels who started the civil war. All they want to do is to protect the place they want to protect." Bai De looked at Mo Ni, he was wearing a thick coat, wrapped half of his face with a worn-out scarf, and folded his hands in his sleeves , the old brows and eyes are full of traces of the years, and even the emotion is a little weak: "I should be as firm as them, but I was involved in the power war after all."

"grown ups……"

"Do you know why I must ask you to take me up to have a look?"

"Monnie doesn't know."

"I have something I want to talk to you about." Under the night, the old commander asked Mo Ni with his eyes shining brightly: "I used to hate touching this bottom line, but now I have to do it, and now I have violated my original will. .”

"Serving the country and the people is your lifelong ambition, how can you violate it?"

"The road to power has always been full of thorns and blood. Isn't it rare for brothers to kill each other? No matter what infidelity and injustice Lurek has done for the throne, as long as he is in power and the people's livelihood is safe and peaceful, he is a qualified king. And those who start the war, no matter how many reasons they have, once defeated, they will become the target of public criticism and sinners through the ages. The history written by the winners will never record the truth, let alone sympathize with the losers. Therefore, for the common people , as long as they can still live normally, they won't care too much about whose country it is, anyway... aren't they all surnamed Ainota?"

"Then, is it because of the plan to revive the demons?"

"Empty words are empty, have you never suspected in your heart that these seemingly nonsensical statements are actually just excuses for seeking power?"

Moni looked at the elderly commander, speechless for a moment.

She had doubts, but she has always been clear about her selfishness, as long as it is what the little highness wishes, she will do her best to achieve it.Perhaps, this is truly trusting a person. As long as you give absolute trust, you will not ask whether it is right or wrong, because you know that he will not live up to your trust, so you can go forward without hesitation for him.

"It's not the princess you trust." Bai De looked at Moni with a smile in his eyes.

Mo Ni subconsciously turned sideways to avoid the eyes that seemed to be able to read people's hearts, but calmed down after a while, looked directly at Bird, and said: "My lord has never met Your Highness, if I do, I will appreciate it very much."

"Your Majesty's birthday is winter, right? If I remember correctly, he will be seventeen this year." Bai De said, and couldn't help thinking of the child with stubborn eyes and calm temperament in the Southwest Army. That year was also the same as today. Your Highness is about the same age.

"In half a month, it will be His Highness's birthday." Mo Ni couldn't help lowering her eyelashes as she said, unable to hide the longing in her eyes.

When I left Mokodo, it was early spring when the chill was still lingering, but now it is deep winter in the blink of an eye.It turned out that before I knew it, I had been away from Moko for almost a year, and I don't know how His Royal Highness Mingluo is now, whether he has calmed down a lot, whether...he has grown taller?

Seeing that Mo Ni seemed to be in deep thought, Bird said slowly: "I stand up, I just believe in a person's choice, I believe that even if that person has no army in his hand, and even if he can't hold a weapon openly, he still wants to continue fighting. It means that the darkness has invaded Ainota silently."

"Is it Mrs. Franke?" Mo Ni subconsciously asked.

Bai De just smiled, stretched out his hands, let out a sigh of relief, rubbed them lightly, squinted his eyes and said, "It's really cold."

"It's going to be cold for a while."

Bird stopped talking, just closed his eyes and shrank his neck into the scarf.

Mo Ni hurriedly pushed the wheelchair away from the tower, sent Bai De back to the temporary residence after the war, and lit the fireplace. She heard Bai De say a word behind her: "If the princess insists on punishing the Second Highness in the future, you Let your highness persuade me."

"grown ups?"

Bird waved his hand and signaled Mo Ni to go out. Mo Ni frowned for a moment, then turned and retreated outside the door.

Bird is old after all, and the old injuries he suffered when he was young have left him with many old troubles. Whenever it is cold and rainy, he will feel a dull pain.In the past six months, he has made rapid progress. For the 79-year-old, there is no day that he will stop burning his few remaining candles.

Half a month ago, he fell from his horse during the march, and when he woke up, he could no longer stand up on his legs.

He should have rested a long time ago, but the country does not give up his remaining value, so he has never served so far, and he has never really let go of the heavy armor that has been worn in his heart all his life.Everyone can see that his body is no longer able to support, but he is still strong until now.

After that night, Bird never left that room, leaving only a line of wishes on the table that will never be known to the world.

——I have done my best in this life, and I hope that after leaving, the Far Eastern Army will always be loyal to Ainota, not hatred.

The death of the old commander did not lower the morale of the Far Eastern Army. On the contrary, the fire in the hearts of the Far Eastern soldiers was even more intense.They made an oath in front of Changsheng, swore to be loyal to her to the death, attacked Talan, and brought Lurek and Tafil to justice, so as to fulfill the old commander's wish during his lifetime.

Seeing that the Far Eastern Army was about to hit Taran, the battle in the imperial capital was in a hurry, and Mingluo had no reason to continue to hold back the Guards. Under Tafil's persuasion, Lurek finally made up his mind to withdraw the Guards from the southwest.

Tafil said that Mingluo is not stupid, and he is no longer a lamb to be slaughtered. Now the country is facing internal and external troubles. In the Southwest War, the new king of Knossus, Nicole, and his sister personally led the army to the front line. , They invaded the southwest with the power of the whole country, and they were confident that they would win. Mingluo was in the fortress of Xili and he must bear the brunt of it. If he was hesitant to die, he would choose to stand by and keep his strength. It is absolutely impossible to lend a helping hand to Changsheng.So for the southwest, there is no need to be distracted.

Princess Aeglorin of the Demon Race had already brought the keel that was offered by the blood of the Demon Race to Talan, just waiting for an opportunity to come.

When Jiang Zheng, who has the power of the phoenix, is no longer able to maintain the seal in his body, Changsheng has to put aside his gains and losses to attack Talan with all his strength. At that time, as long as the blood sacrifice is used to break the seal of the cloud tower, the keels echo each other, not only can he regain The keel in Jiang Zheng's body can break through the Wodo seal even more.

At that time, the black dragon's consciousness returned to heaven and earth, and no one could stop it.

Therefore, when the Far Eastern Army approached the city and Lurek saw the sister who had imprisoned him again, he truly understood what Tafil had said - in the next battle of Talan City, whose blood would become a sacrifice , Demon God doesn't care.

Since the last Te Chuan incident, Tafeile has no longer been trusted by the demon god, and Tafeile also knows himself. After recovering from his injuries, he will no longer do anything, and will only spend his days leisurely in his own mansion.Lurek didn't dare to say a good word for him, for fear of offending the Demon God for him, so he could only go to him to discuss it when he was at a loss, and every time he woke him up with a word, his trust would increase.

At the beginning, Lurek thought that Tafil was a rough man who grew up in the military camp and knew nothing but leading soldiers and fighting. Later, he gradually realized that this second brother from the same mother had been disfavored since childhood, and had long been I'm used to forbearance, I don't talk about many things, but I see them more thoroughly than anyone else, and I do it decisively.He even thought that Tafil and himself were nothing more than a fellow, and everything he did was for fame and fortune, but now the more he tried to get closer, the more he found that his second brother was definitely not for these things.

He asked Tafeile why he joined the Demon Race. Tafeile was silent for a long time, and laughed at himself: "I don't want to die."

Some kneel for power, some kneel just to live.

He used to think that his identity was the value of his chess piece. Later, it was Tafil who made him understand that chess pieces without strength can be thrown away at will. Status and status have always been recognized by others before they can be superior. into something muddy.If he loses, the Demon God is nothing more than changing another pawn. This is the inherent indifference and cruelty of the Demon, and it is also a test of the value of the people he uses.
