The Sun King's Evidence

Before Curona, the capital of Britannia, in May.

The lion flag fluttered in the sky, and under the bright and intense sunset, the knightly army gathered here.

The lion flag symbolizing the Kingdom of Knights, the heraldic flags of the major principalities, the iris flag symbolizing the Lady of the Lake, and the golden iris flag symbolizing the Sun King Lion himself were lined up in a row.

A small blue raven flew across the sky, its blue eyes turning around. Just below it, tens of thousands of knightly troops were already receiving the blessings of the Sun King Ryan and the marshals of the Knight Kingdom. review.

"Dong~dong~dong~dong!" The sound of footsteps was like a mountain bell. Tens of thousands of people walked in unison. The orange light of the setting sun filled the square, shining on the soldiers' brand-new breastplates and sparkling weapons. Above, rows and rows, thousands of phalanxes, hundreds of battalions, and dozens of legions are getting ready to go.

"Dong~dong~dong~dong!" The serfs were wearing brand new equipment and gripped the weapons passed down from their ancestors. Everyone couldn't help but get excited when they saw this scene. Since the Sun King came to the throne, there have been Tens of thousands of serfs received the honor of being promoted to freemen.

Even today, these serfs are full of expectations. They will prove their loyalty through war, courage and faith, just to get the chance to escape from their humble status.

The freedmen marched forward with their heads held high, and the fire of ambition burned in everyone's eyes.

Wealth, status, and glory are just on the other side of the sea!

Not to mention the elite infantry regiments of the major principalities. After experiencing many tests of blood and fire, they have all been proven to be able to stand alone.

At the end of the team are the Old Guards, who are the most glorious and considered to have the highest status. Although there are only two thousand people, these senior veterans have participated in at least eight battles. Their queues are the neatest and their military postures are the most standard. , there was not even a single movement, and the impression left on everyone was not only the majesty that oppressed everyone's nerves, but also the military soul that had turned into a physical entity in the air.

Dozens of knights, garlanded with flowers, their armor and polish polished brightly, and their robes covered with parchment scriptures and blessings as much as possible, walked slowly by. They shouted the names of the Fairy of the Lake or the Sun King Lion, and some Many knights shouted the names of their principalities and families. The knights' servants couldn't help shouting loudly. They were eager to make military achievements and get their own knight spurs. The knights errant were excited and they were ready to make great achievements. .

Even the time-tested warriors such as the Kingdom Knights and the Holy Grail Knights can't help but cast their eyes on the Sun King Ryan standing on the high platform. Thirty-five Holy Grail Knights are lined up, each one is a pillar of the Kingdom. and pillars of chivalry.

They felt the call to war.

The raven continued to fly, and it slid down from the flag.

Thousands of phalanxes and tens of thousands of troops were in front of the Britannian artillery. Behind the fifty-five divine trebuchets were a total of seventy mortars, forty-eight heavy cannons, thirty-three organ cannons, and Nineteen Hellstorm "Yori" rocket launchers.

They are like chess pieces on a chessboard, densely packed in front of the square.

The raven blinked at this sight, spread its wings and continued flying.

Higher up, facing the sun, which was setting towards the west, the raven crossed the river bank, crossed the clear sky, and crossed the great knightly capital.

The sound of battleships roared, and the waves cried out in angry droplets, contending with the strong wind.

The Britannia Poseidon First Fleet, the Second Fleet, and the two ironclads Enterprise and Varyag. The giant steel beasts are spitting out sheets of smoke into the sky, with black gun barrels and solid The armor illustrates its immense power.

In addition to the dozens of battleships, there are hundreds of passenger ships and cargo ships that have been recruited. They will serve as the main transportation carriers to take the Chivalry Army far away.

The raven croaked a few times, flapped its wings, and flew in the direction of Obien. The moment it left the land of Britannia, chaotic colors appeared on the raven's body. flame.

Is this the Sun King and his army?

That Manfred was right, this sincerity cannot be competed with!

But what if the Sun King and his army were lured into the depths of Albion, where they were defeated by me and my army?

If I can bring down this Sun King, my master will definitely reward me!

Reward me, the greatest Archmage of Light ever, Egrim von Horstmann! The most loyal and faithful servant of the Raven God!

Sun King, the place where you fell has been chosen for you by me and my master’s divinely chosen champion, Zan Ek.

And in addition to us, there is also the original demon prince who escaped from the cage and is also happy to join us.

We'll be at Obion, waiting for you!

"Quack~quack~quack~"

The sound of crows in the distance made Ryan, who was standing on the high platform, couldn't help but cast his gaze into the sky. However, under the sunset, there were birds chirping everywhere, and the distance was too far, so Ryan could only vaguely feel what he had just heard. Something is watching me.

There were so many things staring at him, Ryan didn't pay much attention to them. The king inspected the army, and at the same time, there were illustrious generals on the entire high platform.

After fighting with Ryan for so many years, countless military geniuses have emerged in Britannia.

This expedition to Aubienne will be accompanied by six marshals: François, Bodrick, Callard, Rokossovsky, Bertrand, and Davout. Everyone except Marshal Luo will Commanding a large army composed of thousands of people, Bo Derek was responsible for commanding the navy. Then in terms of magic, Ryan unexpectedly did not choose to bring Teresa or Aurora to deal with the cold and wet environment of Obien, nor did he choose to bring The Lake God Witch Morgiana's Lake God Prophet Group instead chose to send out Veronica and her 300-member witch group. By the way, she also brought Orika with her. The dark elf maid will be responsible for collecting and Analyzing Obien's artifacts, her dark magic will have greater and better effects in ghost places like Obien.

When she heard that Ryan was about to take her, Orika smiled so much that her eyes narrowed. She held Ryan's arm and kept calling her master. The dark elf had a look on her face like "Master is mine, you are no longer suitable for this version." Her expression was deliberately provocative towards Morgiana, which made the Lake God Witch extremely unhappy.

On the contrary, upon hearing that Ryan planned to take Olica away, both Teresa and Aurora breathed a sigh of relief. Sylvia, who was one step behind Sulia, relaxed even more. The head maid looked at The proud dark elf wants you to leave as soon as possible! Stop torturing me!

ah! Remember to ask her to get the leather locks on me before she leaves! Sylvia thought sadly that the young lady and Your Majesty actually ignored me and allowed her to bully me!

"Master, Master!" Olika lay on Ryan's back, the dark elf licked her lips and said in his ear: "There are actually many useful things deep in Obien. You made the right choice to take me with you! "

"Oh, really?" Ryan felt Olika's exquisite figure pressing on his back, especially the two big soft balls. The King of Knights couldn't help but said: "Okay, Olika, this time it's big The expedition is not expected to last long, we will discuss military affairs next.”

"Master~" Orica thought for a while and asked in Ryan's ear: "Will your Mrs. Lilith also go?"

"Correct answer!" Ryan nodded, and he continued: "Lilith will help us fight against Obiun's serious corruption and ancient curse."

"Tsk, obviously I can do it too." Olika sounded very unconvinced by this, and the dark elf said in Ryan's ear: "Master, the scheduled date is coming soon, can you do me a favor then?"

"What scheduled date?" Ryan was a little strange.

"You will know when the time comes." Olika's voice was unusually serious: "You must help me, Master, otherwise, you may lose your Olika forever."

"So you have to tell me what is going on." Ryan said helplessly.

"Not yet, Master, we have to wait until He makes up his mind." Olica said a few more words, got up from Ryan's back, and went to prepare: "Anyway, Master must remember, don't completely believe Lilith. nonsense."

Ryan looked at Orika's leaving figure and said nothing more, but called everyone together for a meeting.

This time Britannia will send about 40,000 troops, including two Poseidon fleets, which can be said to be a heavy gathering of troops. Ryan will deploy the battle sequence and combat strategies in full view of the public.

The Sun King Lion will personally lead the Royal Guards of Britannia, which is composed of part of the Bastogne Army and the elite of the northern nobles, about 11,000 people, including the Old Guard and the 1st Lancers. The group also includes Veronica's witch group and Orika, with Marshal Rokossovsky as deputy.

Marshal Francois will lead the armies of the Principality of Winford and the Principality of Palavon to form the Second Army, with about 7,000 people under its jurisdiction.

Marshal Callard will lead a part of the armies of the three principalities of Bastogne, Gisoleaux, and Montfort to form the Third Army, with about 6,000 people under its jurisdiction.

Bertrand led the Fifth Legion, which included the elites of Belian, Bordeleau, Carcassonne and Le Angoulant, and had about 6,000 men.

Davout led the Sixth Legion, the Mousilon Legion, with more than 3,500 men.

Then came Marshal Boderick's navy.

At the military meeting, Ryan said to everyone: "This time we will conduct a large-scale cross-sea battle. This war is not only to fulfill the agreement with the New World Purple Phoenix, but also to promote the spirit of chivalry and bring justice to the people. Purification is brought to Obion Island. At the same time, the last time Mr. Lao En went deep into the depths of Obion Island, he found a large number of chaos altars and fortresses left by the ancient saints in the thick fog. This time we will use Ms. In the name of clarifying everything.”

"Where does your Majesty plan to land from?" Francois was calm and calm, and his father-in-law set his sights on Aubien Island. The last time the northern knights and nobles made an expedition to Aubien, they obtained extremely generous benefits. This time, it is time to It’s time for our southern knights and nobles to play the leading role.

Of course, in fact, the benefits that can be obtained by following Ryan are too generous. My father-in-law has not even used up the dividends from the Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition, not to mention the subsequent dividends. But money is never too much. of.

"It seems like landing on Corpse Island might be a good choice?" Kalad looked at the map.

Corpse Island is located in the south of Obion Island. It is an independent island, but it is generally included in the scope of Obion Island. There are several Norscan strongholds there. Lawn was there last time. It was plundered and destroyed, but no troops were left to garrison it.

It is understandable that Lawn would do this. After all, the plan of the great expedition of Obien at that time was actually to burn, kill and loot along the entire coast of the island. He never intended to go deep into the dangerous and mysterious interior of Obion.

But this time it was different. The knightly army would go deep into the thick fog of Obion, so Kalad believed that it was necessary to occupy the rear and have a stable springboard.

"Wight Island? But that place is covered with swamps, and the climate is rainy and stormy all year round. There are also many swamp-dwelling monsters and human-skinned wolf tribes on the island." Marshal Boderick, Duke of Bordeaux, took his son Fedmund De also came, and he shook his head when he heard it: "It is not suitable to be a temporary naval port and logistics supply base."

"What should we do? It's impossible for us to have no rear." Marshal Bertrand shook his head: "Your Majesty, Obien is a very strange and foggy place, especially after going two kilometers deep into the coastline, we basically have no map. and intelligence, the information available will be very limited.”

"The rear? Don't we have a ready-made rear?" Ryan pointed at the southeastern part of Obien Island.

There, there is a specially marked settlement and stronghold, Newland.

It was a new province that the empire spent hundreds of years establishing in Obien, with a population of about three to five thousand. The former royal chief wizard of the empire, Sernus Gehrman, has been committed to exploring the secrets of Obien, especially It was after losing to Gelt that he resigned as the royal chief wizard.

"What your Majesty means... is to borrow the empire's ports and strongholds?" Francois immediately understood what Ryan meant, but his father-in-law did not agree. This is a rare situation: "But... will the empire be willing? "

"The Empire and we are a military alliance, and our relationship has been very good in recent years. Since I took the throne, there has been no armed fight with more than ten people on the border." Ryan knew Francois's thoughts. The Knight King smiled and said: "Let's borrow Newland as an example. Logistics base, the empire will not disagree."

Everyone nodded. Ryan didn't even need to show up for this matter, just saying hello.

"I just feel that we mobilized such a large force to explore the depths of Obion, but in the end we have to let these imperial guys get a share of the pie, which is a bit unwilling." Francois expressed his thoughts frankly. , the father-in-law touched his goatee and shook his head helplessly: "I always feel that we are doing everything. They will definitely send people to follow the army. This is too easy."

All the marshals nodded, and even Kalad couldn't help but agree, because you want the empire to give Newland to Britannia as a logistics base and naval port, and at least 10% of the spoils must be captured. The Empire, and it is a rule to allow the people of the Empire to participate in solving the puzzle of Obien.

Ryan glanced at Francois, Talleyrand's words still lingering in his ears.

Indeed, the problem of greed for too much has already emerged. If it were before, Ping Ping would have been happy to have a stable logistics base with help from the empire, but now everyone's mentality has changed. They want more. Want to devour it all.

I can do it, I can do it, why should I share what should be mine with others?

Fortunately, everything is still under Ryan's control.

So the decision to lease Newland from the empire was made. After the meeting, Ryan immediately found Morgiana and Sulia. The King of Knights held the hands of the Lake God Witch and the Queen of Knights respectively, and said seriously: "Mo Jaina, Surya, we will try our best to return as quickly as possible to this expedition to Obion and end the battle as soon as possible, but such a large-scale expedition cannot be hidden from the eyes and ears of the old world."

"Therefore, when I am away, you will be responsible for protecting the kingdom." Ryan continued: "So, I have made some arrangements in advance, and there are some things I want to tell you."

"Speak, my husband."

"I'll listen to you, Ryan."

"I need you to do the following things..."
