The Sun King's Evidence

In fact, Tamukhan's offensive was slower than expected.

In June, Black Heart Rep sent the news to Nuer, and Nuer began to prepare for war. The entire city entered a state of martial law. According to the previous plan, the Marquis of Wesenland Oger Hawke led a Wesson led an army of more than 15,000 people to Blackfire Pass to strengthen defenses.

Nuer began to mobilize fully, waiting for the war to come.

However, what is unexpected and reasonable is that Tamu Khan and his Chaos Army responded very slowly. When Black Heart Lepp came to Nuer to report the situation to the Nuer City Council, until August, the Chaos Army still The princes at the border stood still.

The Chivalry army led by Kalad has even reached Nur.

But in fact, it was not that Tamukhan did not want to advance quickly, but that he and his army had reached their limit.

Limits in every sense of the word.

This Chaos army, which had been on an expedition for more than two years, was already exhausted. They finally arrived at the Border Prince's Territory, a land with lush water, grass, and inhabited people. Is there any reason to plunder and massacre them?

The Chaos army dispersed into thousands of Chaos warbands. They spent several weeks venting the grievances and anguish accumulated during the expedition. They vented all their dissatisfaction and resentment along the way, and the claws of Chaos continued to extend. When they arrived at Milmidon in the west of the Border Prince Territory, they were barely repelled by the large group of defenders there. However, most of the Border Prince Territory had become a no-man's land, and the originally inhabited areas were replaced by countless ruins filled with lonely ghosts. , the massacre caused by the Chaos Horde greatly damaged the vitality of this area, and it would take at least one generation of reconstruction to barely restore it to what it was before it was destroyed.

Tamu Khan was very satisfied with this. He finally regained control of the entire army. But when he announced that he would regroup all the troops to cross the Black Mountains and attack the empire, this chaotic army encountered an unexpected surprise. trouble.

Cracks appeared within the Chaos army, and many Chaos warbands and beastmen deserted. They thought that following Tamur Khan to expedition to the empire was not worth the gain. Faced with Tamur Khan's recruitment, dozens and hundreds of A warband became deserters and fled everywhere, hiding in the Black Mountains, the forests and badlands of the Border Princedom.

Similarly, the Chaos Dwarves are not interested in marching, at least not that much. The gray prophet Drazhoth has captured many human slaves and supplies in the Border Prince Territory, and plans to arrange for his men to transport all these supplies back to the Dark Realm. Then think about marching.

Sai the Faithless, the leader of the Chaos Sorcerers of Doergan, was seriously injured in the Battle of Death Pass and was unable to control his army. It took Tamukhan a lot of time to regroup and gather the entire Chaos army. When they reluctantly brought the Chaos When the army regrouped, they found that there were more than 6,000 people missing. The army now only had 40,000 people.

And the time came in August. When Tamu Khan wanted to attack the Black Fire Pass again, more than 30,000 imperial troops were already waiting. A heavy rainstorm in summer turned the already difficult mountain road into a A swamp.

Atop the ruins of the Border Princedom, Tamukhan, the chosen champion of Nurgle, Say the Faithless, the leader of the Daoergan tribe, and Drazhoth, the gray prophet of the Chaos dwarf, were having a meeting.

It had just rained, and the three leaders gathered together. A map was placed on a rotten table and held down with a dimensional stone.

They are not far away from the empire. They have arrived at the Border Prince Territory. As long as they cross the black mountains, they will reach the empire's Wesen Territory and Ivey Territory!

"Stupid! Bastard! Short-sighted!" At this time, Tamu Khan yelled at the gray prophet: "You and your people have spent too much time! This is not possible! This is not possible, loving father, hurry up!"

"Hmph!" The gray prophet Drazhoth responded with an indifferent and contemptuous attitude. Considering the previous alliance and the victory in the Border Princely Territory and the Death Pass, Drazhoth decided not to fight with Tamu Khan. Calculate.

Daugan's wizard leader Sai the Faithless was still injured, but he knew why Tamukhan was so anxious.

For Nurgle's corruption is deepening and spreading among Tamukhan's tribe.

Nurgle does not like smart things and flexible things, but likes the eternal cycle of decay and rebirth. Its corruption will continue to deepen, and Tamukhan's tribe will gradually lose their humanity and mind. Perhaps this will make They would become more powerful, but Tamukhan himself would have a harder time fulfilling his ideals.

At the same time, Tamu Khan himself is also evolving at a rapid rate or deeply corrupted. New suppuration and wounds appear on his body every day. Sooner or later, he will turn into a piece of rotten flesh. Tamu Khan's inner feelings The sense of urgency is getting higher and higher.

Looking at Tamu Khan who kept making loud speeches, the unbeliever Sai sneered. Not only did he agree with Tamu Khan's order to speed up the march, but he was also prepared with both hands.

In this way, with two votes in favor and one abstention, the war conference passed the resolution to march immediately.

The question arises again, how can this Chaos army attack the Black Flame, led by Umberto Corleone, the Elector of Tuscany, Grand Duke of Iverland, and the strongman of the Sanctuary, with more than 30,000 defenders? Pass?

What's even worse is that due to the rainy season in August, Blackfire Pass received two heavy rains in a row. Now the place has turned from a mud road into a swamp. Even the demonic power and engineering technology of the Chaos Dwarves cannot guarantee that it will be there. In this environment, the artillery can be easily transported to the front line.

"There is a road." At this time, the gray prophet suddenly spoke. He pointed to a place in the black mountains: "Here."

"Here?" Tamu Khan and Faithless Sai both noticed that in the middle of the black mountains, there was a thin line with markings on it.

"Yes, there is a road right here." Drazhoth put his thick fingers on it: "In our data, this place has been recorded many times. It is called Dongya Pass. It used to be A mine that has been abandoned for a long time, and now many dark creatures live there, and no one remembers that it was once passable."

"Do you suggest that we march into the empire from there?" Tamukan made a dull voice from his throat that was dripping with pus.

"Or storm the Blackfire Pass?" the gray prophet said impatiently.

"..." Now Tamu Khan fell into thinking. If he takes the Dongya Pass, the tribal army will inevitably have to fight a hard battle. However, such a decision can catch the empire off guard, because as long as they cross the Dongya Pass, the people on the other side will It's the plains of Wesen Territory.

"Leave three thousand men to contain the imperial garrison at Blackfire Pass." Tamu Khan raised his battle axe: "The rest, the entire army will march towards Dongya Pass!"

"yes!"

…………I am the dividing line between the Kurgan hunks in action……

At the same time, Nuer City had just welcomed a powerful new force.

The Holy Grail Grand Knight Calad de Garament led a thousand Breton knights, two infantry regiments, a remaining battalion of the Old Guard, and some knight retinues and logistics troops, about five thousand The human army came to Nuer.

Nuer sent out the most luxurious lineup to give them the grandest welcome. Almost all the nobles of Nuer came out to welcome the warm-hearted knight brothers on the ancient road across the mountain with the highest level of welcome ceremony at the city gate. The excitement and courtesy were really amazing. Let the Brittanian knights led by Calard be flattered.

Isn’t it said that Nuer is a very proud city?

Didn’t it mean that the two imperial emperors Luitbold and Karl-Franz received cold receptions when they came to Nuer?

Only Ryan, who was watching from a distance, understood the mentality of the Nuer City Council.

This mentality is called "I would rather be with my friends than my domestic slaves."

This idea is most common among the Empire and the High Elves. It is better for Britannia and the Dwarves. The former is under the supervision of the Lake Fairy and bound by the spirit of chivalry, while the latter is influenced by the dwarves' ancestral spirit and the concept of family blood. .

So why does this mentality occur?

you know.

The knights did not have time to think so much. Sir Old Krupp, headed by the Nuer Merchant Alliance, immediately brought a group of plainly dressed Nuer merchants out of the city to work for the army. They gave them delicious food and drink, and also donated a lot of military funds. and supplies.

Then, the Imperial Baroness Emmanuel held her son Frederic Jr. in her arms and extended cordial greetings to Kalad. Of course, Kalad had met Emmanuel before, and she politely expressed that it was a duty to fight against evil. The Brittanian knights and old guards quickly filed into the city, while the two infantry regiments were stationed outside the city.

After everything was settled, Kalad took the initiative to come to the Elector Palace to find Ryan, and Ryan suggested that they go out for a walk.

The main reason is that the Lake Fairy and Sulia are staying together during this period. The goddess and the female knight have recently been shopping on the streets and sightseeing together. They are inseparable. It is not easy for Ryan to entertain Kalad where he is staying.

Kalad naturally had no reason not to agree.

At the same time, they were joined by Noor Justice Theodor Bruckner.

Just like that, on the streets of Nuer's wealthy district at dusk, three powerful men from the Holy Realm walked together on the streets.

"Thank you for your hard work for coming from afar, Kalad." Ryan walked on the streets of Nuer with his hands behind his back. The city seemed a little depressed recently due to military preparations for war, but this did not affect various commercial activities in the wealthy areas. and the development of social activities.

In fact, this is also Ryan's suggestion, that is, you must not panic, just do whatever you want. Stability is the most important thing. Amelia adopted Ryan's suggestion and did not issue a strict curfew or control order, so as to allow Nu. The citizens of Nuer maintained their faith in the Empire and in the Nuer City Council.

On the road paved with marble, the first man has long black hair parted in the middle and no beard. His face is handsome and full of a unique temperament, unruly and absolute self-confidence. He is about 30 meters tall. One meter nine, there are spiritual vortexes spinning in his eyes, and he carries a half-hand sword with many mysterious scriptures and runes on his back.

The second man is slightly shorter, about 1.8 meters tall. He has medium-long black hair and a goatee. He has a handsome face with clear lines and thin cheeks. His blue eyes are full of wind and frost and a more powerful aura. strength.

The third man was extremely tall, over two and a half meters tall. He had long brown hair, messy like a lion. He had a full beard and mustache, squinted his eyes, and was wearing a specially customized suit. Wearing a black dress, his face is gloomy, ruthless and taciturn.

"How is the kingdom lately?" Ryan asked casually towards Kalad. The light and shadow of the street lamp shone on his back, casting a long shadow.

"Fortunately, nothing major happened. The knights and nobles were busy resuming production and recuperating." Kalad walked on the streets of Noor and could feel the prosperity of this heavy industrial city: "As soon as I received your letter, I I came with people right away, but time was tight and I didn’t have time to call in more people.”

"It doesn't matter, the army is more valuable than more expensive." Ryan shook his head. This war was not originally the mission of the Brittanian knights, so many of them are enough.

"Baron Juan and Baron Hux originally wanted to come over, but I refused. Musilon's new policy is that the security is still not good." Callard continued: "The best thing is for them to stay where they should be. Contribution, as for supporting the empire, leave it to us."

The three of them randomly found an ordinary tavern in the rich area. The hotel owner was really flattered to see three powerful men from the holy realm entering. Ryan came up and immediately ordered two barrels of beer, ten pounds of barbecue, five pounds of bread and various vegetables. fruit.

The three of them found a booth and sat down. The waiter brought a large bucket of beer and served it to the three of them in large beer glasses.

"Cheers!" Beer foam splashed in the dim light.

"How many Holy Grail Knights are here this time?" Justice Noor Theodore drank a large glass of beer in one gulp, and the dripping wine dripped all over his beard: "Your Excellency, Count Garament?"

"Just call me Kalad." Kalad also drank all the beer in the cup in one gulp. Count Garament's face relaxed slightly: "Ten people came this time, most of them are from the Principality of Bastogne and Wenzhou. The Holy Grail Knights of the Principality of Ford, following the Lady’s Oracle, came to Nuer to aid our fellow humans!”

"Okay! In this case, the chance of winning this war will be a little better!" Theodore roared and almost collapsed the ceiling of the tavern. Justice Noor reached out and picked up a whole strip and roasted it until it was golden and crispy, sprinkled with pepper and Cumin, honey-smeared pork ribs, and started to chew directly: "With the help of Sir Ryan and Sir Kalad, Tamu Khan will die this time!"

"Don't be careless!" Ryan frowned slightly, and he continued: "Based on the intelligence collected hard by the scouts and the intelligence of the mercenary baron Black Heart Repp from the Border Prince Territory, we not only have to deal with Nurgle's chosen champion, but also Against tens of thousands of Chaos Knights and Kurgan Raider Cavalry, in addition to Chaos Dwarves and their formidable war machines."

"The city council has approved the order to dispatch steam tanks and land craft." Theodore nodded. Justice Noor threw away the cleanly chewed bones and used a knife to take out a new pig bone. Rib: "Marinburg happily agreed, provided the price is right. In order to protect their achievements, they also sent the Mannann Blade mercenary group to protect the land-speed ship, and they are also willing to cooperate with us to fight."

"Manann's Blade Mercenary Group! I remember that their leader is not the infamous..." Kalad gnawed on a roasted pig hind leg.

"That's right, it's the famous mercenary baron 'Blackbeard' Edward Teach." Ryan nodded lightly: "Recently, this group of mercenary bastards are stationed in Nuer, Blackbeard Teach and Black-hearted Repp. The guys have similar odors and get together all day long to drink and have fun.”

"Well... I can't help it. That's what mercenaries are like. They drink, fight, and sleep with women." Kalad shook his head helplessly: "But mercenaries are needed everywhere. I finally understand."

"Hahahaha~"

The three Saint Domain experts ate up ten pounds of roasted pork like hungry wolves, and then ordered two roasted chickens and a whole piece of roasted beef ribs, which they also ate cleanly.

The hotel owner was a little dumbfounded when he saw the three people eating, and finally Theodore took the initiative to pay the bill.

After coming out of the tavern, Ryan took out a small bag of gold marks, handed it to Kalad, and said with a smile: "Here you go, go order a decent dress. This is Nuer, you can't wear armor to the banquet, can you?"

"No, I can't take your money." Kalad was still wearing a military uniform. The Holy Grail Grand Knight and Devon Hill's godfather waved their hands in fear: "No need, Mr. Ryan."

"Accept it, this is the lady's order. Take the money and order a suitable dress for yourself. You will use it." Ryan forced Kalad to accept it.

Kalad had no choice but to accept the money. Ryan nodded without saying anything and left with Theodore. In the evening, they would go to the Nuer City Council for a meeting to discuss Tamu Khan's movements.

With a bag of gold coins in his hand, Count Garament had no choice but to wander around the wealthy area, looking for a tailor shop.

After walking a few steps, he found a well-decorated tailor shop, Mrs. Sayles Tailor Shop.

Just this one.

Kalad didn't think much and stepped into the store: "Hello~ I would like to order a dress."

"welcome!"
