Vol 3 Chapter 50: Dark clouds of war

>Byzantine border.
North Caslandi and Byzantium, who had not actively attacked for months in a row, had a fierce battle with the Byzantine Medical Knights on the last day of autumn.
The spirit is worth affirming, but the disparity in strength is great, which has led to the unparalleled caesarian cavalry cavalry no longer, because the tragedy of the cavalry arms was collectively executed. That kind of powerful strength, the 8,000-man assault corps said that it was a counterattack in the face of the Byzantine invasion, and it was better to say that it was a moth suicide like a fire.
Because they were greeted by more than five groups of Byzantine phalanxes, and the number of armored knights and reserve teams in the medical knights alone exceeded 4,000, not to mention the infantry groups with a total of more than 30,000 and the 5,000 on the wings. Light cavalry.
Even if only the remaining Kaslandi knight showed a fearless and heroic attitude, but destiny was always cruel like a huge palm, and the traces of the existence of these cavalry were completely wiped out overnight.
The only resistance has completely disappeared, and Byzantium’s step into Kaslandi seems to have no one to stop-but the frontline Prince Hades and the Duke of Windsor received the news-Gabriel Empire The confrontation was cancelled, and the other party was willing to compensate gold and a small part of the territory in exchange for three years of peace time.
And Constantine had already responded to this. After receiving the order from His Majesty the Emperor, the Prince led his troops towards Nale, north of Byzantium, and the Duke of Windsor led another army. In the territory of Caslandi.
To consolidate the superiority of the country and promulgate new territories and lords is the practice after every expansion of the country.
Lilith used her own skills in the previous continuous battle to leave the original scout scouting camp and enter the official cavalry brigade. The female knight without any emblem on her chest became a bright color in the iron-blooded barracks, but when those self-proclaimed armed forces passed The first time the cavalry saw the female knight with a rifle charge on the front line, the inner discrimination and superiority disappeared.
Day-to-day patrols and battles have allowed Lilith to grow rapidly-not just riding and fighting skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, but more, thinking about war, empires, and even the world.
Originally arrogant, she no longer complained from the heart about the dried meat that was worse than the wood, no longer went to the heart because she could not take a bath for a few weeks, and she was tired and tired. She slept on the horse for a while and was thirsty. Drink casually.
Prince's daughter?
Since his last name is Lankinus, he must have the temper of Langkinus.
Killing more than a hundred people, Lilith witnessed the moment when countless enemies were pierced through their bodies or cut off, and they understood how vulnerable they were.
When the comrades around her continued to die, she began to understand that perhaps countless enemies could not be killed by the bite of a poisonous insect, and a seemingly insignificant arrow penetrated the wound, or it might cause a good knight to die in pain. Yu Tetanus.
When the war came to an end, she had refused to return to Constantine four times to attend the ceremony.
Today, after following the Duke of Windsor's team to the country of Caslandi, the army that is about to enter the winter truce began to rotate with the domestic reserve team, but Lilith still remained in this cold On the land.
No one knows what made her insist so much—even if the Duke of Windsor occasionally greeted him personally, she would not say much.
Her once arrogant and arrogant face has rarely seen smiles, and war has given her a thorough insight into the cruel side of this world.
In the beginning of Constantine, the joyous atmosphere of a victorious military operation is obvious.
The nobles who participated in the battle several times walked across the triumphal arch in the center of the city, receiving the cheers and flowers of the people. This has been an urban event that must be experienced every two weeks from autumn to the present.
There have been frequent reports of good news, full frontal victory, territorial expansion, and access to resources that have greatly increased the national strength of the empire.
This is the news that most civilians and low-ranking nobles like to hear and talk about. As for the wanted criminal, the young heir who has been ruled as "heretic", "blasphemy", and "treason", no one seems to be there anymore. To care.
The three major divisions of the Inquisition, "Sword of Adjudication", "Cobb's Right Eye", and "Staff of Moses" have always been in a calm state. The other three departments behind which the name has not been mentioned are even more There has been silence for a long time, but only in the hall of the Inquisition, there is still a wanted order painted with the head of Murphy and his family crest.
The time limit is marked "permanent".
This seems to be slightly contrary to the meaning of Emperor Constantine-to be honest, with the current influence and power of Edward III, it seems that it is not difficult to revoke the wanted by ventilating with the Patriarchate and the Tribunal, but to Now this matter is still stalemate, can only be said... someone inside the referee blatantly challenged the monarch.
Obviously, the only priest with the highest priesthood was the one who could fight against the monarch without being dragged to prison.
The Inquisition is no better than the extremists of the heretical ruling, even if their country in Murphys or even the headquarters is not far from the Dukes of Windsor, the extreme hatred of fanatics for "heretics" cannot be prevented. So even though things have been in the past half a year, they are still not forgotten.
And in the last few days, it seems that the hatred of Murphys in the referee has resurrected-the fluctuation of the scepter can make Gabriel’s Vatican Holy See go violently and even rush to Balice to carry out the so-called "jihad". The same can let the Patriarch's Holy Court be affected by it...or rather, shake.
To this end, Edward III personally walked several times to the Patriarchal Patriarchate. This was a rare thing for His Majesty the King, but fortunately, in the end, His Majesty the King and the Patriarch reached consensus. It’s a matter of course, but it’s clear that the team secretly discharged by the Inquisition is already a thing that Edward III and the Patriarch chose to ignore with one eye closed-for Murphys, this is really not good news.
Conferring honors, banquets, and hunting, this seems to be the most social event that the Byzantine nobles and royals have participated in the most recently. However, while the upper nobles were indulging in the atmosphere of joy, Edward III quietly sent his envoy to the east by boat.
Osgilia, separated by the sea, a country that has not had too many intersections with the Byzantine continent for a long time, was still a scene of struggle between different tribes hundreds of years ago, and this impression has always caused Byzantium on this side of the sea. Disdain to observe each other's development.
But today, when the nautical industry began to flourish on the mainland, Byzantine Edward III seems to have made the same decision as His Majesty Hasselblad of Ballice-far and near.
As the most western country in the eastern continent, Osgilia has shown its great potential in the past 100 years. After the highly concentrated integration of the country, this originally fragmented country has begun to move towards unstoppable. Qiangsheng, he has closely followed every move of this country adjacent to Byzantium since his ascension, and now, he has formally sent a fleet, and the envoys carried countless treasures to form an alliance with Suleiman I of Osgiria. .
This means that in the next ten years, the trade between Byzantium and Osgiria will bring enormous wealth to this huge empire.
Judging from the previous inspections, the developing Osgeria will bring a huge trade surplus to Byzantium-this alone is enough for Edward III to name "Byzantine History".
However, as Edward's sauna room was planned for the next imperial development, his brother, Hades, who was still on the front line, had already torn his face with the diplomatic envoys of the State of Nale.
Obviously, the military center of Byzantium began to shift to the north, and another cloud of war in the west of the mainland...had already covered the sky above Ballice.

Sisyrin city, night.
For all the cities and "night watchmen" that have entered the right track, the time now can be described as a race against time. Hegel is doing his best to prepare for war and diplomatic mobilization-all the lords nearby have learned that the troops of the Fording Empire and the Holy Gabriel Empire are generally prepared to attack, and have begun the deployment of strategic defense lines.
Obviously, in the situation where the Sibalice royal family has not intervened, the lords can only rely on themselves to resist foreign enemies-even if they understand that this is the royal family deliberately sitting around and waiting for their internal consumption, but it is really the stage of life and death, no one will sit and die. .
The city lost its past laughter and laughter and replaced it with depression and tranquility.
Murphys Windsor~EbookFREE.me~ This guy who is now on the edge of the night watchman but has a subtle identity is inspecting the progress of the construction team in front of the tower passageway to Arantis. The night elf Krenze, who had not returned after reaching the surface, stood not far from him.
The two apparently did not make an appointment in advance. Murphy did not pay much attention or favor to him. When he walked by, he just greeted lightly. Sunderland specifically looked for Krenze’s language communication obstacles. When a scholar followed him to translate Verdin for him, Krenzer also looked a little stereotyped when facing Morpheus. After nodding stiffly, the two stood silent in front of the dark entrance.
The huge circular entrance was originally straight up and down like a knife and axe, but at this moment, a number of stairs have been cut under the excavation and began to expand at least eighteen channels.
It may be possible for Sunderland to create a space teleportation circle in the manufacturing plane, but the cost is extremely high, because the energy consumption is a huge gap, so it cannot be implemented at all. Therefore, the biggest research topic in the Master Lab is a stable and low-energy link.
However, it is too early to do this. It will take at least a few months to complete the surveying project and dig the other tunnels except the main road. Murphy is thinking about how to use those resources underground.
