The Sun King's Evidence

Erengrad is a very beautiful city in winter. This city is located on the bay of the Claw Sea. It is located at the mouth of the Linsk River and is the starting point for the kingdom to travel to other areas of the Old World.

In ancient times, this was the northernmost and easternmost city established by the Elf Empire in the old world. After the Battle of Longbeard, Erengrad was also abandoned. The estuary provided a warm, ice-free port of the great lake, protecting the people from freezing. Frozen by the violent winds from the north, there is a main commercial dock on an island in the middle of the lake. As a commercial center, the city wall of Ehrengrad is not high, and apart from the waterway of the Linsk River, the city only has the southeast There is a city gate leading to the Empire's Oster Territory and Midden Territory.

At this time, the time has come to the end of November 2514 in the imperial calendar. The Frost House (hotel) in the city of Erengrad has been transformed into a pre-war command post. The Erengrad Shilavik Group is here before the war. Meeting.

Attending the meeting were: Marshal Rokossovsky, Commander-in-Chief of Oerengrad City Defense, and Marshal Kuznetsov, Deputy Commander-in-Chief.

Former Cheka prison warden and current acting interior minister of Oerengrad, Josep Bruz.

The youngest chosen bear god Esun and high priest, Bagration.

Ivanovna, the senior ice witch elder of Erengrad, this female elder is a senior legendary ice witch. She unexpectedly chose to support the defense.

The situation is getting worse.

On November 19, the Norscan Mountain Legion appeared on the edge of the Grovel Forest covering the north and east of Oerengrad. The defenders of Oerengrad used ambush and guerrilla tactics in the forest to achieve small victories. But this could not stop the Norscan Mountain Army from continuing to advance. Varmir Aisling, the High King of Norsca and the Chosen One of the Four Gods of Chaos, divided his forces into two groups, approaching from the north and the east respectively, and soon captured Ere. In the small town of Kvass northeast of Lungrad, the defenders were forced to retreat.

On November 23, the Norse Mountain Army continued its attack, and the few outposts and fortifications Rokossovsky had placed in the Groward Forest soon fell.

On November 26, part of the Norse Mountain Army crossed the Linsk River and approached the south of Oerengrad and the upper reaches of the Linsk River. The town of Jon fell. After that, the defenders tried to launch an attack, but they were never able to recapture it. At this important stronghold in the town of Jon, the upper reaches of the Linsk River were cut off.

On November 30, the Norscan Mountain Army captured Goshdorf Castle in the southwest of Oerengrad. Since then, all ground transportation between Oerengrad and the Old World has been interrupted, and Oerengrad has lost all its power. Any possibility of obtaining supplies and reinforcements from the outside world.

At this time, the situation in Erlengrad was already very serious. The original residents of the entire city were about 80,000, plus about 300,000 refugees fleeing from all directions. A total of nearly 400,000 people took refuge in the city. , and what's worse is that the entire city currently only has about 4,000 tons of grain reserves. No matter how full the reserves are, these reserves can only last for about a month.

The facilities in Frost House are luxurious, with bearskin sofas and many high-end furniture imported from the empire on display. The grandfather clock made by dwarves is even more exquisite in appearance and exquisite in workmanship. The wooden floors and carpets are imported from high elves and Tyrells. It was imported, but no one was obviously thinking about it at this time.

The first one to speak was Marshal Rokossovsky (hereinafter referred to as Marshal Luo). This Marshal of the Bear Cavalry had become very haggard after suffering many changes, and his handsome face seemed to have lost a lot of vitality, but He knew deeply that he could not fall now. The marshal's uniform was brand new and well-made, but the white gloves were dirty: "Enemies are approaching from all directions, and Erengrad is about to be besieged from all directions."

"We tried to break through the encirclement many times, but all attempts to contact the outside world failed." Admiral Kuznetsov's face was very ugly: "The soldiers rushed many times, but they could not open a gap, and The army of the Oster Territory was not prepared for war at all. Facing the small number of Chaos troops who crossed the Linsk River, they collapsed at the first touch and were quickly driven into the Shadow Forest. Fifty kilometers? Or further? Anyway, what's next? In the war, we can hardly expect the empire to help us open the gap."

"This struggle will be longer and harder than ever, but the son of Esun will win the final victory, I swear." The youngest high priest of Esun in history, Bagration, the Chosen Bear God, is only in his early forties this year. He has beady eyes, a big nose, and thick brown curly hair: "Ersun has told me how to defeat them."

"No one knows how to defeat them, not even Esun." Josep Brutz was pessimistic about all this: "If we had known, their threat would have been eradicated long ago, and they would be invincible. , the only thing we can do is to muster up courage and survive, waiting for reinforcements from the Empire or Britannia."

Ice Witch Ivanovna and Bagration looked at Joseph with contempt and disgust, even though this guy was right.

"That's enough, we are the only ones left in the whole kingdom, what do you want." Luo Shuai raised his head, his face was very determined, but everyone could still feel an emotion called pleading, Kislev It was once so glorious, with strong soldiers and horses. Under the command of the Red Czar Boris, the stars were shining and the talents were abundant. Everyone thought that the kingdom would have a bright future.

In just a few decades, everything has changed. Those great names were either killed in battle, or they went away to other places or disappeared. Felix, the founder of the first Cheka and the chief palace minister asked the prophet to leave Lustria. Chief Engineer Sergo died in prison. Beria and a large group of people went to serve the King of Knights. Marshals Zaev, Konev, Fedosov, and Romanov all died in the battle. Devka.

As for Katalin? Haha, don’t mention it.

It is true that this group of people now forms the Silavik Group, but they are like an island in the ocean, isolated and without hope. Where is their future? Are they still Mrs. Keesler? If everyone in Erengrad cannot be defended and dies in battle, it will be regarded as an explanation, but what if we can defend it?

The air in the room was already very cold, and it was almost stagnant after Luo Shuai's words. The invisible but extremely heavy pressure made everyone breathless, like something clutching the heart tightly. Like a black hand, oppressing everyone's nerves.

"I only need to pay attention to one thing today, and that is how to resist Aislin's attack." Ku Shuai came out to smooth things over.

"There's not much we can do." Rokossovsky shook his head: "Facts have proved that the several attempts to break through have achieved nothing except the loss of troops and generals. What the Norscans are least afraid of is fighting us in the field, and at present Our only hope lies here, on the walls of Erengrad."

No one objected to this, and Bagration nodded: "The only hope."

There were hurried footsteps outside, attracting everyone's attention.

Bear Cavalry General Fedyuninsky quickly opened the door from outside and came in. The oncoming air-conditioning violently hit the temperature that the fire in the house was struggling to maintain. Rokossovsky glanced at the fireplace with some worry. The city defense commander You know, there is not much wood and coal available for heating in the city.

"They're coming."

Fifteen minutes later, Erengrad, east wall.

Outside the city wall, hundreds of bonfires are scorching the sky. On the ice field outside the city, thousands of tents are emitting black smoke. The Norscan Mountain Legion has surrounded Erlengrad, and there are waves of stench. Dispersed in the air, it can be clearly seen from the city wall that the sky has been shrouded in black smoke.

Everything is like a joke, a funny and absurd joke. The sons of Kislev and the descendants of the bear god Esun have been here for thousands of years. Countless martyrs have spilled their blood on the ice field just to keep the entire kingdom alive. , now, Chaos is coming again, bringing their destruction, with unrivaled power, and with the determination to crush everything.

Here they come again, here they come again. How much blood will the sons of Kislev have to shed before Chaos will be satisfied?

No, Chaos is never satisfied. Even if this world is completely destroyed, the evil gods will not be satisfied. They will immediately look for the next world. The war will continue forever until mortals can no longer support it.

Can we still escape this disaster?

A gust of cold wind blew, and Rokossovsky shivered. Marshal Bear Cavalry suddenly felt that he should put on a very warm bearskin coat and bear skin cloak and bear like the high priest of Ersun, Bagration. A leather waistcoat and a bearskin hat.

"There are more than 50,000 enemies." High Priest Esun asked Luo Shuai tentatively: "Is this the news?"

"More than that, far more than that." Luo Shuai pointed into the distance: "Dragon demons, large groups of beastmen tribes, and those chaotic creatures. These are all armies that I have never seen before."

"Very good, it seems we have to swing our weapons a few more times." Bagration made a loud voice: "Anyway, Konstantin, thank you."

"Thank me? Thank me for being a death row prisoner?" Rokossovsky couldn't help but laugh, and he said with some disappointment: "I have never been afraid of death, but the high walls of the Ice Palace are always intimidating."

"You are a pure soldier, Konstantin. You saved the situation and saved the last fire for Kislev." Bagration said repeatedly: "Don't forget, Mrs. Kisler is the most tenacious in the world. Race, we will make Chaos pay a terrible price for every step forward. Remember, the three gods of the north will always be with us."

Within Erengrad, every adult male was recruited to join the Acropolis War. All gold coins were collected and spent in the most important places. Kirov factories were producing muskets and artillery day and night, and every blacksmith The blacksmiths in the shop spent all their energy on forging weapons. The bear cavalry, hussars and those survivors who escaped from the battle of Zedevka took all their strength to join the ranks of defending the city and Erlen. The native people of Grad are fighting together, the ice witches are casting spells to strengthen the city's defenses, and the Red Navy have abandoned their warships and stand on the city's head.

"This is all your efforts, Constantine. If it weren't for you, Erengrad would not still have such power." High Priest Esun bowed deeply towards the city defense commander: "Katalin just didn't understand. , if we can survive this time, I will make her change her mind."

Rokossovsky knew Katalin well. He knew that even the words of High Priest Esun would not make Katalin change her mind unless her father, the Red Tsar, was reborn. But looking at tens of thousands of defenders standing On the city wall, Marshal Bear Cavalry still felt proud and proud.

The spear points of the spears and the ax blades of the halberds also reflected light under the cold sky. The Ugor people lined up in several lines with their own hard bows. The shooting army was checking the muskets and loading the artillery. The bear cavalry The marshal was quite pleased. He was proud of his nation, which was the most tenacious.

Erengrad will not fall until the last son of Kislev has shed his blood.

"Yes, there are quite a lot of these guys. But we also have a lot of people, enough to stop them." High Priest Esun said loudly. He seemed to be releasing magic on his voice, and his voice was like a giant bear. Like the roar, it spread throughout the eastern wall of Erengrad.

Then, Bagration was the first to sing: "The Chaos Army is the Black Crow~"

Singing sounded from the city walls.

"The Chaos Army is the Black Crow~"

"You want to trample us under your feet."

“From the Linsk River to Pragdong.”

"Hey Ersun is the most powerful in the world."

"Warrior Kislev, polish your scimitar."

"Hold the gun tightly."

"We should all become stronger as we fight."

"Fight the enemy to the death on the battlefield."

As if responding to the singing on the city wall, the Norscan people outside the city also blew their horns and sang their own songs. They praised the four gods of chaos for bringing civilization, and praised the brave men who successfully ascended to demons and eventually became demon princes. Similarly, they also sing the ancient myths and stories of those who failed to ascend to the devil in the end. Some songs can even be traced back to ancient times. The sad epics about them being driven out of the old world. Many Norscan ancestors were originally The residents of the northern part of the current empire, when Chaos had not yet appeared, were still compatriots and brothers on both sides.

If there was no chaos, maybe the two sides would always be compatriots and brothers, Rokossovsky couldn't help but think so on the city wall.

But the sadness only lasted for a short period of time, and soon the sound of thousands of roars from various voices and the sound of ax blades hitting shields joined it - High King Aislin of Norsca gave the order, and the barbarians were ready to attack. .

"So, this is about to begin." Rokossovsky said to High Priest Esun.

"For Erengrad, for Kislev!" The high priest tightened his hold on the scepter.

"The three gods of the north are above! May the power and fire never be extinguished."
