Warhammer Throne

In the Throne Hall, Ryan shared the information from the Empire to all the dukes, including the Lake God Witch Maugiana, the Sorceress Assembly Speaker Veronica, the two Vice Speakers, and the head of MI7 Oro. Ra, Teresa, the two commanders of the old guards and the border defense marshal Roland, etc., have a copy of the information.

With the passage of time, the news from the front line gradually became clear.

It is now early November, and nearly ten days have passed since the end of the Zedevka Battle.

The Kingdom of Kislov is now in a precarious state, and Prager has been confirmed to have been abandoned. There were originally thousands of city defense troops and some militia troops there, but with the execution of General Pavlov, these troops are basically all After the defeat, according to the intelligence of the scouts and the refugees, after being replenished, Festus, the champion of Nurgle, had just entered Prag and moved south at a slow speed.

The champion of the goddess of choice, Prince Siegwald’s army of the goddess, suffered a devastating blow in the battle of Zedevka. Only 13,000 people remain. Currently, they are staying at Zedevka for fun, waiting for the north to abolish. It is said that the reinforcements of the soil have only reached the level of 20,000 people, and it will take time to restore combat effectiveness.

The Norsca Mountains Legion was reduced to 35,000 in the Zedevka Battle, but the barbarians from Norsca continued to join Islin’s legion. The Norsca Mountains Legion quickly replenished to 50,000. Go straight to Olengrad.

The rest is the 100,000 Chaos Army led by Dark Iron Motkin. The main chaos army is trying to cross Kislov at a very fast speed and coming towards the border of the empire. Of course, it is Mottkin’s luck. Not very good. They encountered two huge snowstorms, which slowed down their marching speed. These two huge snowstorms were the last efforts of Katalyn and the Ice Witch Sisters to stop Mottkin. Kislov’s earthly response At the call of Kata Lin, he used the last force to slow down Motkin's speed.

In addition to the one hundred thousand army, the new fifty thousand Chaos Reserve team is starting to move south from the north of the Mourning Mountains.

In addition, the Norsca dwarves sent the latest intelligence, that is, more than one hundred thousand Chaos troops are gathering in the northern wasteland one after another, preparing to go south.

Even if Chaos dispatched so many troops, not counting the Norskars, not counting the Kurgan Steppes, the tens of thousands of barbarian tribes on the northern wasteland would only be dispatched by less than one-twentieth, all People are waiting, waiting for Mottkin to win victory and glory, and to win the admiration of the dark gods. They need to see the opportunity to succeed in making contributions and even promote the devil before they are willing to think about whether to join Mottkin's team. , Fight for the dark god.

When these pieces of information were summed up, the dukes in the Throne Hall felt heavy pressure. Duke Le-Angoulan, who always liked to talk to Ryan, was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, did you make a mistake? Northern Barbarians. Isn't it a war with the dark elves? How could an army of 300,000 suddenly emerge?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ford, Duke of Montfort, young and vigorous, said directly: "I think this is because the Empire and Kislov want to reduce their losses, so they deliberately exaggerate the number of enemies?"

"I feel the same way." Theodoric, Duke of Berleon, nodded. He hurriedly expressed his ideas, and kept his eyes on the Lake God Witch Maugiana: "Everyone, I think Chaos South is true. But the scale is at best the equivalent of the Battle of Chantilon. The Ulfric we have to face is the same as his World Walker Legion, with a little more people at most, 50,000 people, right?"

Ryan knew that Theodoric had just re-emerged as a duke. His rule was unstable and he badly needed the support of the Fairy Church in the Lake.

“The 50,000 Chaos Army defeated Kislov’s 80,000 so easily? This is unreasonable.” The Kingdom Regent Raun paid great attention to this situation. After listening to Theodoric’s thoughts, the Kingdom Regent directly He retorted: "If Chaos has only 50,000 people, even if Kislov loses, he will never lose so badly!"

"Who knows? How do we know what happened in the town of Zedevka?" Theodoric said displeased: "My opinion is the same as Lord Ford, and I also doubt Kislev and the Empire. Deliberately exaggerating the enemy's situation so that we can share the loss."

"I don't think so, Theodoric." Ryan said: "If this is the case, the Empire and Kislov would never use this attitude, they will change their terms."

"I agree with His Majesty the King." The old father-in-law Francois touched his goatee: "For example, if you wipe out 100 million enemies and successfully transfer to Beccafen?"

"Hahaha~" There was a burst of laughter in the throne room.

In recent years, under the leadership of Ryan, the Knight Kingdom has won consecutive battles, and has never lost at all. This time the Battle of Chantilon is another big victory. Everyone feels honored as citizens of Breton. In contrast, Kislov's defeat has become the object of contempt by everyone.

"What is the longest joke?"

"The military plan made by Czar Katharine in Zedevka."

Brittany jokes

"Okay, everyone just smile, don't really think that Chaos is weak and deceptive." The knight queen Suria spoke, and the female knight said with great authority: "You can not believe the news of Kislov and the empire, can it? Can you not believe the information about the Norsca dwarves? It is a dwarf. What does that mean when the dwarf points out that the situation is critical and wants us to prepare early?"

Su Liya's words shocked everyone in the throne room.

Yes, they may not believe in humans, they may not believe in their allies, Empires, or the distant, unfamiliar Mrs. Keisler, but what about the dwarves? Having spent time with King Rorek of Breeze Castle and King Belega of Bafeng Mountain, the knights naturally knew that if the dwarves issued warnings and asked for assistance, what would it mean?

"So, the situation is really very bad?" Hagen, Duke of Gisoleaux, said seriously: "But why do we have to start the general mobilization? What about the empire?"

"The empire has their own mission." François continued: "They are caught off guard now. Mobilization takes time. They are, and so are we. They will try to slow down and drag the tide of chaos's destruction, and we will be there. The Empire, work with our allies to drive these chaos and scum out of the old world."

"Very well, and again, we are always like this. In order to fight the darkness, the knights are desperate, but when did the empire across the mountain help us?" Palaon Duke Casvann still can't forget his stay in Hemgart. When he failed, he said angrily: "In addition to constantly making sacrifices, what else did we get? We support the empire, what can the empire give us?"

"The empire can give us very little." Lane said softly: "Emperor Karl-Franz only promised to solve the logistical problems for us, but what is the duty of the knight, Casvan?"

The Duke of Palaon said nothing.

"Once the tide of destruction goes south, no one can survive the border crossing. All living creatures are either slaughtered or corrupted to become one of them. The countless glories and splendid cultures of the past will be transformed into a cloud of smoke until they are completely forgotten. , The efforts of mortals can only make the world linger." The lake **** witch Mogiana said: "We must avoid these things from happening. Without our assistance, Kislev would quickly succumb to the chaos, and the empire would suffer. Terrible disaster, then, it will be our turn."

"Yes, we must guard against the enemy outside the country." Duke Carcassone, the cruel Hubald said: "Let the war not happen within the borders of Brittany, protect the land and the land that the goddess has given us. Our leaders, this is our mission and responsibility, your majesty, send troops."

"Yes, your majesty, send troops!"

"The glory of the knight is to get the Holy Grail, or the Shroud of Horse Leather and return it, Your Majesty, send troops."

"Your Majesty, it's time for the whole world to witness our strength."

After Mogiana spoke, it was clear that the new knightly warfare had been recognized by the Fairy Church in the Lake. The dukes soon realized that their goddess was in favor of supporting the empire, and in return, there would be a new holy grail knight. Born in this chivalrous war.

Coupled with Ryan's own power of the sky, everyone has realized that there is nothing controversial, and the opinion of agreeing to support soon overwhelmed the hesitating opinion. Only the Duke of Lyonasse Adehad asked worriedly: "If we send troops to support the empire, what about the Norscarron fleet, which is always cruising in the Talon Sea and our open seas, looking for opportunities?"

"The goal of the Dragon Ship Fleet is obviously to contain us." François nodded: "My opinion is to call up the army to support the empire without affecting production and the daily lives of the people."

"Very well, can someone tell me that under what circumstances, how to recruit an army will not affect the production and daily life of the people?" Ryan spread his hands, Ulfric's dragon ship fleet is indeed a threat and has to be guarded.

"Normally, there are now more than 8 million people in Bretania. According to the general mobilization, it is about 25 to 35 recruiting a soldier." The Kingdom Regent Raun said: "If you don't want to affect production As long as the daily life of the civilians does not affect the standing army, garrison, and mobile force, your Majesty, I suggest that 50 households are enlisted as an ideal recruitment method, and 75 households are better."

All the dukes nodded their heads at this kind of enlistment ratio, and the 50 households had almost no feeling for the kingdom. As for the seventy-five households, the quota would be contended, and the freedmen would lose their heads.

"Then seventy-five households are enlisted." Ryan nodded, and the King of Knights said: "Now, tell me that the entire Bretania is enlisted in this way, plus the standing army and knights you can mobilize, as well as some voluntary requests. How many freed people can join?"

"There can be about 35,000 to 40,000 people." Raun calculated a little and immediately added: "There should be more, Your Majesty, it is the slack season of the farmers, free people and serfs are doing nothing when they are idle. May apply on a large scale to get promotion opportunities."

"Let's calculate based on 38,000 people first." Ryan nodded, "Everyone, the new chivalry war is about to begin!"

"For the lady and the king, for Bretania!"

In the end, the national policy of assisting the empire and Kislov was determined.

The Knight Kingdom will be dispatched in three batches.

The first group is a ready-made army, the northern front army led by Kalad. This army that has just been replenished will form an army with the Poseidon knights led by the Duke of Poderro, and set off immediately after preparations are complete. , Broke through the blockade of the Dragon Fleet from the sea, and supported Olengrad.

The second group is the assembled army, led by the Knight King Ryan himself, the Lake God Witch Mogiana, the Sorceress Assembly Speaker Veronica, the Mother and Daughter Aurora Teresa from MI7, Regent Lawn, Red The Duke of Dragon, Bochmond, Duke of Gisoleaux, Hagen, and others all accompanied the army, including the knight aristocracy in northern Brittania and the army of the Duchy of Bastogne. Marienburg and West led arrived at Midden led to the Empire to support.

The third group was led by François, mainly the knights and nobles in the south. They will be assembled and set off later, more as a reserve force, and the journey is to arrive at Nur first and then to Tarabeheim.

As for Suria, she was left in Kurona to preside over the overall situation of the Knight Kingdom, and Ryan left Olica to help her.

The king could see that neither Suria nor Olica was very satisfied with Ryan’s arrangement, especially the dark elf, her cheeks bulged. She didn't want to stay in Kurona, she just wanted to be with the master. .

Ryan thought it was most appropriate for Olic to stay to assist Suria, and because of the dark elf's instinct, after the order was given, the dark elf didn't say anything.

In this way, the entire knight kingdom began to mobilize, preparing to start a new knightly war, and Kalad and his northern front army and the Poseidon fleet set off immediately after a short rest.

In the world of darkness and despair, there is only war.

…………I am the dividing line with bulging cheeks…………

Imperial calendar 2514, late November, Old World, Kislov, suburb of Olengrad, Groward Forest.

The tide of destruction is gradually approaching Olengrad.

After the defeat of Zedevka, Marshal Rokosovsky tried to contain a part of the remnants and defeated generals, and barely maintained the battle sequence without collapse. The army withdrew into Olengrad, and also received a part of the base. Slough refugees.

In the opinion of Marshal Rokosovsky, Olengrad’s geographical location is very important. This is Kislov’s only outlet to the sea. As long as you control here, you can look forward to imperial reinforcements or Breton reinforcements. The arrival of the empire, and controlling Olengrad can also contain a large group of Chaos troops, giving the Empire time to react.

At the same time, this port city also has Kislov’s only small arsenal, the Kirov Factory, which can produce muskets, mortars, and cannons on its own.

The north and east of Olengrad are covered by a dense coniferous forest. This forest is called Groward Forest. After Marshal Rokosovsky withdrew to Olengrad, he immediately joined forces with the navy. Marshal Kuznetsov seized the supreme rule of Olengrad. They placed the entire city under military control and prepared to deal with the large-scale attack doomed by chaos. At the same time, they sent part of the army to the Grovod Forest. Establish a line of defense and try to delay the attacking speed of the Chaos Army.

However, at this moment, Marshal Rokosovsky received an execution order signed by the Czar.

The Marshal Bear Cavalry couldn't believe it. When he tried to preserve Kislev's last bit of hope and fire for defending his country, his Majesty Katalin actually issued such an order! Want him to die! Ask him to bear full responsibility for the defeat of Zedevka!

The Marshal Bear Cavalry, who is only in his thirties this year, was disappointed with the czar and the royal family of Bokaha. Then, the news that Cheka told him made everyone feel a thunderbolt: the czar gave orders to abandon the city and the kingdom and flee to the south. .

Marshal Bear Cavalry tried to negotiate terms with Cheka. He hoped to be able to commit his crimes, and tried to prove that Erlengrad must not give up. If you give up here, it will be equivalent to letting the northern part of Oster and the Shadow Forest directly face the attack of the Chaos army. At this time Auster was not prepared for war at all. If he could, he was willing to accept the execution order afterwards.

Cheka told him, don't even think about it, and execute it immediately.

The marshal was disappointed again, he felt a bit boring.

It's really boring.

The discouraged Rokosovsky told Cheka that he should at least give himself some time to say goodbye to his army. Seeing that the Marshal was tough and took out a firecracker, Cheka was forced to agree. The cavalry marshal left the room.

He came to the army and told everyone the czar's orders.

As a result, the entire Olengrad army was disappointed, especially those soldiers who had been forced to retreat until the last minute in the **** battle in Zedevka. They couldn't understand why this happened? Luo Shuai obviously saved the situation and saved the last hope. Why did he order him to be executed?

At this moment, something that no one expected happened. A group of Kislov Red Navy shouted angrily: "This must be a conspiracy of chaos! This is a false edict!"

"False edict! This is a false edict!"

"The execution order is false!"

"The son of Kislov will never give up Olengrad!"

The angry Red Navy rushed into the room and grabbed Cheka directly. Marshal Rokosovsky and Marshal Kuznetsov, who were burning with sorrow and indignation, had a brief talk and immediately decided to move Cheka was executed, not accepting Katalin's orders, all the nobles and representatives of the citizens gathered, and they vowed to defend Olengrad.

"Boom!" With the sound of the Olengrad naval battleship, the Olengrad Shilavik Group officially announced its establishment. The entire city from the marshal and Boye to the refugees finally reached an agreement, that is Ning I don't take a step back when I die.

At this time, the Norsca Mountain Legion had appeared on the edge of Groward Forest.

The battle for the defense of Olengrad began.

Update, ask for a ticket duck!
