The Sun King's Evidence

When Orica returned to the Elector's Palace, Ryan had also led the army back to Nuer.

When the knights entered the city, the citizens of Nur lined the streets to welcome the heroes back, and Ryan and the others also showed off their trophies, including carts of Kurgans, heads of Chaos Dwarves, and the heads of Beastman and Beast King Huld. When the cavalry team showed off its spoils to the citizens of the city, the citizens of Nuer burst out with deafening roars in response. The cheers resounded from the streets to the end of the street. At this time, no matter what happened in the entire Nuer city, Nobles and common people in the slums were shouting the names of the heroes as if they had won the war.

No one noticed that the old Marquis Ogier of Wesenland did not appear in this army. Mario, the legitimate son of the old Marquis, saw the crowd of people in Nuer without saying a word and just shed tears silently.

No one asked why there was such a military parade-like event when the army was approaching, or why the citizens of Nuer were not informed of the news that the old Marquis Ogier was defeated and died in order to buy more time.

The reason is very simple. Those who doubt the former do not understand war, and those who doubt the latter do not understand politics.

As a thank you, Master Holbein, the most famous painter in Nuer, who is currently painting a statue for Archbishop Valenna, the goddess of justice, showed the returning army the masterpiece he had worked on day and night.

"Karl Franz in the Hawker Territory".

This exquisite oil painting is about two meters wide and two meters long. It depicts the ruler of Nuer, Countess Emmanuel, standing on the elector's throne in the palace hall during the war against evil. Before, with a smile on his face and eyes full of love, he welcomed the return of Duke Ryan and others.

Lane, Kalad, and Pfitzman each held the heads of a Chaos Champion, a Chaos Dwarf Warlock, and a Beastman Beast King in their hands, and were showing the results of their battles to the Baroness. Lane's real Duchess Surya was deliberately hidden. At the back, Holbein still carefully drew Sulia's exquisite face and figure. As for the black-hearted Rep, he did not have this treatment. His body and face were shrouded in light and shadow, leaving only an outline. .

The works painted by Master Holbein definitely do not lack the sounds of exclamation and praise, but they also usher in many questions.

Numerous questions were raised among the citizens of Nuer.

"Who is in front of the throne in the picture?" someone asked

"That's Your Majesty the Baroness, you idiot!" A young noble immediately replied. He looked very proud and at the same time gave all his praises to the painting.

"Those men?"

"It's Duke Ryan! The other two men are Lord Calard, Count of Garament, and Pfitzman, the grand leader of the Knights of the Sun!"

"So that's it." The person who raised the question finally understood, but he still had a doubt: "But why is the painting called this? I mean... where is His Majesty Karl-Franz?"

"His Majesty Karl-Franz is in the Hawk Territory!"

The entire Nuer city was very satisfied with this painting and admired it very much. No one could not praise it.

Ryan noticed the commotion among the crowd, and he was relieved that the citizens of Nuer were at least ready for war. It was said that all citizens who could still use weapons had received basic military training.

Emilia seemed to see what Ryan was thinking. The Imperial Lady sneered and shook her head: "It's not as good as you thought, Ryan. Just after you left, two riots broke out in this city."

"Two riots?" Sulia was very interested in this. In other words, the female knight was very concerned about her son, Little Devon Hill. She thought that Amelia had not instilled some strange ideas in Little Devon Hill when she took care of the child. Theory and ideas, right?

"The first riot was when a large number of refugees poured into the city." Emilia sneered a few times. At this time, the face of the Imperial Baroness was full of majesty and disdain: "The city has been arranged by the people from the Wesen Territory. Housing and rationing, but many refugees are not satisfied with this. Many of them want to live in wealthy areas or churches. Some people even suggested that the empty classrooms, libraries and student dormitories of Nuer University are large. Nuer are not just Nuer people, they ask me to grant them the freedom to choose the area to live in, complete independent rations and enjoy citizen treatment."

"...How was the problem solved?" Lidya Su asked with interest.

"It's very simple, fine and execution." Emilia's tone remained unchanged: "After executing hundreds of the leading troublemakers, the problem will be solved."

"The second riot was caused by some Nuer citizens, especially female citizens. Thousands of female citizens formed a parade to seriously protest against some recent decisions, such as stopping all entertainment activities, not allowing various banquets, and even taverns were closed. It is prohibited to sell alcoholic beverages (except for dwarf taverns)." Emilia shook her head: "This question is also simple. When I announced that if they don't like Nuer, they can leave here now, they can go to the municipal government immediately I had to go through the formalities at the city hall, give up my citizenship, and go to a place where banquets and entertainment can be held, but I heard officials from the city hall tell me that not many women went to go through the formalities.”

"Pfft~" Ryan couldn't help laughing. He opened his mouth and gave up: "Forget it, as long as you can solve it, let's change the topic."

"Earlstein and the others are already waiting for you at the city council." Emilia smiled sweetly at Sulia: "Sister Sulia, how are you? Are you satisfied with that painting?"

"Ah? Which painting?" Lidya Su didn't react for a moment.

"'Emperor Karl-Franz in the Hawk Territory'!" Emilia said with a smile: "Sister Sulia must like it very much. If you like it, I will give it to you, okay?"

"No, you can keep it for yourself." Sulia immediately understood what Amelia meant, and the female knight's face was filled with a polite smile.

"That's a pity, Devon Hill likes it very much!" Emilia expressed regret: "I thought you would like it too."

Lidya Su's expression remained unchanged, and her hand holding the reins of the mount tightened.

It seems that Amelia can no longer be allowed to take Devon Hill.

I have to take care of my son myself!

A long queue entered the Nuer City Council. At this time, all the military nobles, imperial generals, wizard leaders and engineering masters from the Nuer Arsenal were present.

At this time, there was no trace of hostility towards Ryan, Kalad and others in the entire Nuer noble circle. Their eyes were full of admiration and gratitude, or at least recognition. When Nuer Grand Marshal Erstein saw When Ryan came in, he took the initiative to give up the second seat on the right side for him to sit down.

Everyone began to prepare for this chaotic invasion.

The generals of the Parliament and the heads of the Knights agreed that they had to find a position with in-depth defense. According to the intelligence sent by Ryan and others, the Nuer War Parliament was already outside the city of Nuer, at the intersection of the Wesen River and the Ivey River. A new line of defense was built on the peninsula-shaped highlands. This line of defense was built by dwarf craftsmen and human craftsmen using barbed wire, trenches, and fortresses. Under the guidance of the dwarf craftsmen, the artillery positions were protected behind many bunkers. Hundreds of mortars and cannons, dozens of Hellstorm rocket launchers and Hellstorm rapid-fire cannons are ready for battle.

More than fifteen Imperial infantry regiments, tens of thousands of Imperial swordsmen, Imperial spearmen, Imperial crossbowmen and Imperial halberdiers have been deployed in their defensive positions, and more than ten musketeers of the musketry battalion will It will fire under the protection of infantry. In addition, Nuer City also maintains a reserve army of at least seven imperial infantry regiments, ready to respond to changes in the entire battlefield at any time.

All the sects of Nur have decided to join the battle. Grand Cantor Casmir IX will stand on the war altar of the Righteous Church and lead at least a thousand dervishes, two companies of paladins and hundreds of battle priests to bring the empire to the empire. The army supported, and the remaining churches also contributed money and efforts. The mysterious knights of the sect of the goddess of justice Valenna and the sun knights of the goddess of war Mirmedia had already followed Ryan to join the battle. To a certain extent , the power of Nuer's church and believers' belief in how to survive cannot be ignored. The best way to meet fate is to die gloriously in the face of the enemy.

Of course, hundreds of Nuer wizards, led by the Black Lady of Nuer, the Cemetery Rose, the patron saint of Nuer, and the great wizard of the Death Sanctuary, Elspeth von Drakken, are also ready to join the battle.

Finally, Nuer's most elite troops were divided into several parts. Dame Emmanolly personally led the steam tank company and Nuer Ironclad Army as well as the Old Guard. The Imperial Lady will decide when to send these most elite troops The troops entered the battlefield, and the elite mercenary group Mannann's Blade from Marienburg, led by the mercenary leader "Blackbeard" Teach, filled the decks and interiors of four landspeeders. The mercenaries of Marienburg They will fight to protect the land craft.

The Duke of Mousilon, Lion Macado, the chosen champion of the Lady of the Lake, Count Calard of Garamente and Theodore Bruckner, the Chancellor of Noor, were responsible for commanding six thousand Knights of the Order, Pistol Cavalry, and Freelancers. The cavalry forms a mobile force, among which Lane has the heaviest task. The chosen champion of the Fairy of the Lake must shoulder the mission of confronting and killing Tamu Khan, the chosen champion of Nurgle, and Lady Black believes that only Lane is qualified for this task. Difficult task.

"Come on! Watch me stab Tamu Khan and the monsters under his command to death!" The most excited among them is undoubtedly Black Heart Repp. This legendary mercenary baron has been appointed as the free man. The commander of the cavalry regiment, this mercenary leader's desire for revenge was so strong that everyone present could feel his excitement and desire from his body.

After preparations for various tasks were completed, the entire city waited for the approaching day of destruction.

And Tamu Khan did not let Noor wait too long.

On the day that late autumn was about to enter winter this year, with the blood-red sunshine and the sky filled with yellow-green and black-brown miasma, the son of the Kurgan Emperor, the architect of the ruins, the king of armies, and the God of Nurgle chose The champion, Tamu Khan, arrived as expected.
