The Sun King's Evidence
Chapter 146, pre-military meeting (second update!!!)
PS. Many book friends complained that the writing of this book was slow and there were no updates. I can only say that I hope everyone will understand. I have a lot of things to do, and Warhammer is very difficult to write. I always have to constantly look up information and figure out the writing. So it's definitely not going to be faster.
PS2. I have nothing to do tonight, so I will try my best to code out another chapter. I hope everyone will support and subscribe to this novel. Writing is not easy.
PS3. For the sake of extra updates, can we have, that, that (hint), hehehe.
Late August, Britannia, Waremi camp, Chinese army tent.
All representatives of the ten principalities were seated, and behind them hung the coats of arms of the ducal families of their respective principalities. Except for the Duke of Belion, who was at war with Estalia, and the Duke of Palaon, who did not respond to the call, the other dukes Troops were sent.
In late August, the weather in Britannia has gradually turned cooler and is no longer so hot. All the nobles attending the meeting are waiting for the Marquis of Anchy to give orders. Sitting in the seat of the Duchy of Winford is Connery. -The Marquis of Ascot, nominally the commander of this army, but in fact the command was handed over to Ryan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in the name of ladies and kings, we are gathered here to participate in this year's chivalry war. Let us drink this cup together!" The Marquis of Anchy was fully armed and raised his wine glass.
"In the name of the lady and the king!" Everyone also raised the wine glasses in their hands and drank down the wine in one gulp.
"For Madam! For His Majesty Richard! For Britannia!" the Marquis of Anchy said loudly.
"For my lady, for His Majesty Richard, and for Brittany."
Then a knight from the kingdom came to the front: "I would like to ask the Marquis of Glasgow, Angie Desmond, to describe to us the battle plan for this chivalry war. Everyone is welcome!"
There were bursts of applause in the big tent. For everyone, the Marquis of Anchi was of noble birth and well-known. It is said that he also performed well in the tactical deduction in the Knight Academy. Of course, everyone wanted to give him face. The scene was still very special. Warmly.
Ryan also applauded. He didn't know the Marquis of Anxi well at present, so he still had to give face.
"Everyone, the beastman tribe in the Arden Forest has been causing trouble for many years. For hundreds of years, we have been fighting these people of Chaos, the enemy of the lady, for centuries. We have lost countless knights here, and the bones of our martyrs have been buried. Being in the forest only curbs the invasion of those beasts, but even so, many villages are still attacked by beastmen every year."
The young Marquis delivered his speech passionately, and most people nodded approvingly. Only the leader of the Duchy of Bastogne, the Marquis Gabriel de Bastogne, frowned. The third son of Berhemond the "Beast Butcher", Duke of Togne.
He didn't like the remarks of the Marquis of Anchi very much.
The Duchy of Bastogne is the title of the first Knight King Arthur before he became the Knight King. It is also the place where he was born. The Bastogne family is the direct descendant of Arthur and has maintained the inheritance for hundreds of years. The territory contains the most land of Arden Forest, and they have always been troubled by the beastman tribe.
Just from the nickname, we can know how many beasts his father, Duke Birhemond, had to kill before he got the nickname "Beast Butcher". In recent decades, the war to encircle and suppress the beastmen has been won and lost, but every time When the beastmen were overrun, Duke Bohemond would mount his war horse, raise his lance, and lead the knights of the principality to drive the beastmen back into the forest. However, these achievements were revealed in the speech of the Marquis of Anchi. Ignored, which made him a little unhappy.
The good education he received since childhood taught Gabriel how to be patient. He is already in his thirties and has passed the age of impulsiveness.
Marquis Anchi continued his speech: "But the old era has passed, and we have ushered in the dawn! His Majesty the King has decided to launch a new chivalry war to completely eliminate the threat of beastmen in the Arden Forest! "
"This is my plan." The Marquis began to talk about his plan.
This time the knightly army was divided into three groups.
The left army is led by Count Adelaide of the Principality of Lyonnais. This army consists of armies from three principalities. They will arrive at Julson Castle, and then advance along the left side of the Arden Forest, passing about a hundred After a journey of eighty kilometers, we arrived at the location of the Beastmen’s camp, Ten Thousand Demon Rocks.
The central route army is personally led by the Marquis of Anchy of the Principality of Le-Angoulan. This army consists of armies from five principalities. They will also arrive at Julson Castle first, and then advance along the middle of the Arden Forest, passing through about a month. After a journey of one hundred and sixty kilometers, we arrived at Ten Thousand Demon Rocks.
Finally, there is the right army. The Marquis of Anchy handed over the command to the Marquis of Connelly-Ascot. This army is composed of the troops of the Duchy of Winford and the Duchy of Bastogne. They will not follow the army to Yule. Sen Castle, but set out directly from Waremi Camp. They had to cover a distance of about 210 kilometers to reach the location of Ten Thousand Demon Rocks. Because of this, the Marquis of Angsi emphasized that this army was a "feint attack" and "cooperation" "Fighting on the frontal battlefield" did not grant too many tasks to the right army. Marquis Angsi hoped that this army could contain enough troops of the Beastman tribe.
"Have a rest tonight. Tomorrow morning, all armies should set off on time. I, Angsi Desmond, will be waiting for your arrival at the Demonic Rock!" Marquis Angsi said loudly, and it was obvious that this The newly appointed general of chivalry is full of confidence in this.
He held the flag order given to him by the king, and the arrangement of the troops divided into three groups was reasonable - this army of more than 40,000 people was too large, and gathering together could easily cause confusion in the command, and it must be divided into troops. Reflecting Britannia's numerical superiority, division of troops is inevitable.
Ryan thought about it carefully and felt that if he were to direct this kind of war, he would definitely divide his troops.
But why were the armies of Winford and Bastogne arranged to stage a feint attack? On the way back, Ryan was still thinking about this problem. The combat effectiveness of the armies of these two principalities is relatively strong... Yes, it is precisely because the armies of these two principalities are relatively strong that the Marquis of Anchi arranged They went to feint.
Julius and Ryan walked side by side. After hearing that he was being arranged for a feint attack, the knight of the kingdom and the eldest son of Duke Winford was a little unhappy: "I think he is guarding against us."
"This is to guard against us." Ryan squinted his eyes: "This is not the place to talk..."
"Ah! Hello, Lady's Champion, Your Excellency, Knight of the Holy Grail, Lane." Marquis Angsi slowly approached from a distance with a large group of knights. When he saw Lane, his expression became very strange: "Hello!"
"Hello, Your Majesty the Marquis." Ryan and Julius were stopped, and out of courtesy, he greeted the Marquis of Angsi.
"It's an honor to have an outstanding Holy Grail knight like Mr. Ryan join the chivalry war. I hope that Mr. Ryan won't feel grudge because I placed you on the right army, right?" Marquis of Anchi shook hands with Ryan. He shook hands with a smile on his face.
"Oh, of course not. On the contrary, I want to thank the Marquis for his arrangement. I think this is very reasonable." Ryan suddenly said enthusiastically: "Your Majesty the Marquis has noble blood and has the full authority of His Majesty the King. This chivalry war will be inevitable." I can win a great victory, and as a knight serving a lady, Your Excellency, the Marquis, does not need to treat me specially."
Um? This Holy Grail Knight is quite discerning! The young Marquis originally planned to give the newly promoted Holy Grail Knight a warning and let him know who was the commander-in-chief of this war. However, since he was so knowledgeable, there was no need to say many words, so the Marquis nodded with a smile on his face. : "No way, no way, we are all ladies' knights, we are all fighting for Britannia, there is no special treatment or special arrangements. If I have anything wrong, Sir Ryan and Yuli are also welcome. Mr. Wus, please correct me, hahaha~"
The praise from the winner of the Fairy in the Lake Women's Selection made him feel a little elated. The Marquis simply "encouraged" Ryan with a few words and walked away with his head held high.
When Julius and Ryan returned to Wenford's camp together, Ryan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I think this battle is not easy to fight."
"That kind of pride is written on his face. I don't understand why you want to praise him." Julius was also not very satisfied with this commander. The two of them entered their tent one after another, and the expressions on the faces of the kingdom knights Cold and hard: "You should tell him that our opponents are powerful and cunning beastmen. They are the beast king 'Bloodhorn' Malas and the screaming shaman 'Heart Eater' Groz. All those who are careless and underestimate the enemy are The knights have all been buried in the Bone Forest."
"Then what can I do?" Ryan said in a mocking tone: "Should I tell him to be careful in this battle? Or tell him directly that I'm afraid you won't win? Do I want to duel with him? Or do I want to provoke the king? The conflict between His Majesty and Monsignor François? I don’t want to waste time arguing with him, and I don’t want to fall out with him because of this nonsense.”
"He is indeed overconfident, so what can I do?"
Julius also sighed: "Originally, the position of commander-in-chief was to be given to the Marquis Gabriel de Bastogne, so you understand that the Marquis of Anchi arranged the Bastogne army for us to act together. Is there a reason?"
"I understand." Ryan and Julius looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
These two battle-hardened knights had a bad premonition. In this chivalry war, the Marquis of Anchi might be a little too confident.
However, considering that the Marquis himself had received a good military education, they felt that they might be overly concerned.
Back in the camp, many serfs came up to say hello when they saw the two handsome young knights, especially the Holy Grail Knight Ryan. Ryan also answered one by one. His expression looked very humble: "In short, just do our own thing well. correct."
"That's all it has now."
At night, when the moon is at its zenith, the oval-shaped moon hangs high in the sky. The Waremi camp is brightly lit. The serfs are busy packing up their equipment and preparing to set off tomorrow. The knights also chose to give up fighting at this time. Stay in the camp and have a good rest.
At the sentry near the woodland, many serf infantry were standing guard.
The sentries on guard are the lowest infantry in the army. They have a humble status. They not only have to engage in combat, but also perform various chores. They eat the worst food and do the dirtiest and most tiring work.
Two sentries stood on a sentry tower several meters high, whispering: "Hey, brother, do you think our chivalry war can be successful this time?"
"Only the devil knows. Moreover, even if it succeeds, what does it have to do with us? That is the victory of the knight, not ours." The tall man looked at Lin Hai in the distance while leaning on a crudely made spear.
"Are you right? I just hope that I can return to my hometown safely, and it would be better if I could get some rewards." The person who answered him was a thin man.
"Hey, I just hope that I can get a full bag of silver coins as military pay. It's full, and not part of it has been taken away. As for sergeants, I don't even dare to think about it." The tall man said bitterly.
If the serfs had ever had expectations of being promoted to sergeants, then the tall man had already demonstrated the unreliability of this with personal experience. As a serf of the Principality of Lyonnais, he had participated in several wars, and in During these wars, not a single serf was promoted.
The stories full of glory and hope told by their parents in the past have turned into lies and laughingstocks. Whenever the serfs privately talked about the promise of the knights, saying that infantrymen who performed well on the battlefield could be promoted to sergeants. , always eliciting a burst of laughter.
The knights were squeezing their income, and the military salary that was originally decent was deprived of them by the knights under various excuses. Some knights even had to pay for the funeral expenses of a serf after his death! Because many knight masters have begun to lack the financial resources to buy knight equipment for their children.
Then continue to exploit these serfs!
In this dark age, only the Holy Grail Knights can gain the trust of the serfs, because these living saints never deduct the serfs' wages, will correctly view their contributions, and are willing to promote the loyal and brave among them. Life was better.
When the Holy Grail Knight appears, the serfs will immediately have high morale and fight with all their strength. A Holy Grail Knight is the spiritual sustenance of countless serfs. If there are no living ones, dead ones will do. Some lords will pack the bodies of the dead Holy Grail Knights. It was fixed and carried into the battlefield to boost the morale of the serfs, but the remains of the Knight of the Holy Grail were very rare, and the Lady of the Lake did not like this behavior very much.
"This chivalry war does not involve the participation of the Holy Grail Knight!" the tall man sighed.
"Who says no! Yes! A powerful knight came to Winford this time. He is not only the Knight of the Holy Grail, but also the champion of the Lady of the Lake!" The thin man first refuted the tall man's words, but then sighed: "But this This master is not on the same page as us."
"That's not the same as nothing! Idiot!" the tall man cursed: "I just hope that I can capture more in this war and bring more things home. By the way, I still have to be alive. "
"Yes! Survive first! Let's talk about other things later!"
The two sentries who were chatting did not notice that a crow parked on the sentry tower flew away. The crow's eyes were blood red, and a strange light emitted from its rotating eyes.
With flapping wings, the crow flew into the forest.
"Quack—quack—"
