Vol 3 Chapter 997: Out of place

One day ... one day ... then one day ...
The camera turns again and continues to speed up.
In the south, somewhere, some city, the smoke is rising!
"Newspaper-Your Highness, the East Bayou City has been broken! The Thunder Sword Battalion, the Third Division Long Gun Battalion, and the Legion's Heavy Riding Brigade directly under the Thunder Corps count a total of 10,000 thieves are coming here, expected to arrive immediately tomorrow morning Under the gate. "
"Her Royal Highness, there is an urgent dispatch from the northern city of Quse ... Clay and General Clay will soon be unable to support it, and urgently need support."
"The same is true of the western Balolories. The attack of the Zichen Army is too powerful, and it is expected that it will only last for another day. The general will send a message back ... they, they will swear to die with the city!"
"His Royal Highness ... Your Highness ..."
In the small hall, the tension spread in a panic. The threshold is not high or low, and it seems that it will soon be broken by the soldiers who are turning one after another. Negative battle reports followed one after another, as if the reins were tightened continuously, everyone in the hall was breathless and the smell changed.
"Oh, it's really being attacked by all sides, and being embarrassed!" In the flustered atmosphere, only the mild young man surrounded by the crowd did not change his face, laughed at himself and smiled indifferently.
"His Royal Highness, this place is no longer dangerous, you must now retreat!"
"Withdraw? Where can we withdraw?" The moderate youth raised an eyebrow. "Since we stepped into the south, we have occupied dozens of cities in total. There are only seven large cities available for small cities and towns without strategic defense value. Counting the city that is now being breached and about to be breached, the only big city under Manta is worthy of a battle. At this time, you let me withdraw, didn't you let me raise my hand to surrender? "
"But the thief is about to kill him. Your Highness is a distinguished person, and you can't be involved in danger!"
"Yes, Your Highness. If you withdraw from the Jazz to the rear city first. Contact the reinforcements. I will stay here and keep fighting, never let the thief step forward!"
"That's a good idea. As long as your Highness is safe, you can keep our hope of continuing to resist ..."
"What a fart!" The chaos dissuaded. His Royal Highness the Second Prince, who has always shown himself in a gentle image, rarely swears, and frowns at the drowsy old aristocrats around him. His eyes are condensed. Death. Even if I can survive, what will I show in the future? "
"Uh……"
"It goes without saying. You don't understand." After a pause, the second prince simply raised his hand to interrupt the unwilling people, slowly and firmly pulled out his saber at the waist, and spoke quietly. "Pass me an order and let Clay wait The general left the remnant city, led his soldiers back immediately, and stayed with me to guard the walls of Manta! "
"His Highness ..."
"Shut up! I said, you don't understand ... execute military orders!"
"……Yes!"
Looking at the officer who excitedly followed the standard military salute, and then hurriedly led away, he turned to look at the worried old nobles. The second prince shook his head, stepped out of the chamber with his sword, surrounded by the guards. Never walk towards the city walls.
You don't understand ...
The key to determining the victory or defeat of this battle, and even the imperial power of the empire, is not the victory or defeat of the city at this moment. And in the distance, in the royal palace of the capital, in the shrine general assembly, in the hands of someone ... so, as long as it is supported here, the longer the better ...
...
...
The so-called smart people are the kind of guys who can see things that ordinary people can't see and can think of things that ordinary people can't think of.
Therefore, even if the enemy is faced in all directions at present, the situation is at stake, the second prince still does not panic. Of course, then again. The great prince who has the absolute advantage, of course, can not talk about confusion. in contrast. They are in a happy mood in the capital city. Because in their eyes everything is under control.
therefore. Even though the outcome has not yet come out, they have begun to think about the next things and begin to enjoy the sweet fruits of victory in advance!
For example, before the crown prince puts on the crown, a small celebration ceremony is first held in the capital ... Well, it must be said that this is not simply a gesture of victory or arrogance, but it should be in accordance with the rules of the royal family. Management.
As mentioned earlier, Bran is an empire with a close combination of royal power and divine power. In order for the new king to truly ascend the throne, he must go to the General Assembly of the Temple, accept the blessing ceremony of the Pope's coronation, and wear a crown, so that he can be crowned as the king.
The ambitious prince of the empire now follows exactly this process. To put it plainly, that is to set aside a small celebration in your own home, then go to the temple to accept the crown, and finally return, and then celebrate the country and amnesty the world!
Well, the general process looks like this. and so--
A few days later, in the evening, outside the Metropolitan Royal Theatre.
The season is at the end of winter and heavy snow. I believe it should be the last heavy snow this year. The majestic theater with colorful lanterns is not cold at all. The bonfire is burning, people are coming and going, greetings are soft, his horses are hissing lightly, the wheels are rattling over the snow ... and, without entering the theater, you can hear the joyous music coming out.
It's warm and extraordinary, and the atmosphere is very good.
"Oh, this is not Earl Hobart. Good evening. I heard that your family has expanded a lot recently. As soon as it is connected, it closes several shops and shops. Even the supplies sent to the Temple General Association tonight, your family is involved. ... hehe, but that's what we need to give our little families some soup. "
"Marquis Primo? Haha, Sir Sir is very important. If you are all a small family, wouldn't it be worth mentioning?"
"Ha, Hobart, you have to talk to me. Isn't our family worth mentioning in front of your Highness?
"My lord, you are too humble ... And, huh, there is no high prince now."
"Oh, look at my broken mouth, but I can't learn to speak. It is Her Majesty, Her Majesty! Hehe ... please!"
"Dare, Lord Sir please!"
"Haha, then please, please-"
In the snow in front of the theater, two old aristocrats wearing velvet pointed hats, dressed in luxurious noble men first waved each other's hands, and then looked at each other and laughed and helped each other, and walked towards the theater door.
Scenes like this and these dialogues are commonplace in front of the theater.
To put it bluntly, that is, bustling, all for the benefit of all!
After the old prince personally poisoned the old king and pursued his brother, the second prince, the clearly distinguished forces in the former capital city naturally disintegrated and reshuffled. Among them, forces such as Count Hobart, who are close to the great prince's side, rise up like wild beasts, swarming up and splitting and biting the fruits of the victory that originally belonged to the second prince's side. And the nobles, such as Marquis Primo, who had remained neutral after seeing the victory and defeat of the two sides, naturally had to follow the forces of the Grand Prince in order to gain some additional benefits for the family ...
It's not surprising that such things are just a matter of the fly camp. However, just as the two old nobles were about to enter the theater entrance, there was a rushing horse hissing at the intersection at the rear, faintly mixed with the glaive of the blade of the soldier, and it made people look back with surprise.
As I said before, here is a banquet hosted by the great prince to celebrate the impending crown, and given the situation in the capital today, it shouldn't appear that the guards of the cavalry are carrying swords and narrow snow. A galloping tension.
Obviously incompatible.
However, when everyone at the scene saw the rear of the cavalry, the family logo on the guarded luxury carriage couldn't help but be surprised.
"Originally the O'Grylls ... Oh, no wonder ..."
"Huh, shameless man, take care of yourself!"
"Yes, remember that when the boy Winslin first worshiped under the gate of Lord Sword God, it caused a sensation in the city, and even took the O'Gryll family into the wind. That was arrogant. But now? Hehe ... Heard that. Just a couple of days ago, a group of assassin warriors broke into the O'Gryle family manor at night, killing wantonly, but there was no small movement ... "
"I heard that this group should be killing Winsling and cleaning up the portal for Lord Sword God. Unfortunately, it was unsuccessful ... don't talk about Winsling's character, it's true that talent alone is true That ’s right, after all, it ’s a sword ...

"No matter how good it is, it will be impossible to escape. I think this Winsling is also in the capital. As long as he dares to step out of the city, he will be killed by the master Wu Shi who has been heard!"
"Yeah, I'm very dissatisfied to hear that there is a royal offering in the royal castle. If it wasn't pressed by the great prince, this Winsling and this O'Gryll family would have been destroyed several times ..."
...
There was a lot of discussion, and for a while the nobles who stood still outside the theater door, looked at the cavalry array, luxury carriages, or scornful disdain, or gloating, waiting to be stopped slowly ... cover up.
It's not surprising that there will be such discordant scenes. There is no secret in the aristocracy circle. Regarding the incident where Wensling coaxed Brother Haita to leave the sanitarium and then set up an ambush to kill himself, although the great prince tried his best to cover it, there was still a secret circulation in the upper aristocracy circle of the capital.
And the status of the sword Woodin was really aloof in the Bran Empire ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Most of his life guarded the empire's great achievements, even surpassing the boundaries of the imperial faction. Regardless of whether it is now the great prince who is in power or the second prince who is in power, there is no slight discount on the respect of this patron saint.
In this way, the senses are naturally not so good for the betrayal of the Master, Wensling who has betrayed his brother, and his family. Even if the other party is now ‘abandoning the dark and throwing in the light’ himself ...
"Well, you actually brought a gun ... is this a weapon to take to the banquet?" He watched the figure descending from the luxury carriage in the distance, his gun lightly on the snow, and an old nobleman in front of the theater shook his head and laughed. Slightly ironic.
"Not only with a gun, but also with injuries. Hehe, it seems that this boy has not been easy recently."
"Forget it, today is a day of celebration, ignore him. Let's go ahead."
"please……"
