Black Scepter Chapter 50: The dark clouds of war

>Byzantine border.

North Caslandy and Byzantine, who have not actively attacked for several months, had a fierce battle with the Byzantine medical knights on the last day of autumn.

The spirit is worthy of recognition, but the disparity in strength is great, which has led to the unparalleled caesarian cavalry cavalry, because of the tragedy of the collective execution of cavalry arms, the country that had the hope of advancing to the ranks of mainland powers already There is no such powerful strength. The 8,000-man commando team said that it was a counterattack in the face of the Byzantine invasion, not to mention a moth suicide.

Because they were greeted by Byzantine more than five group squares, the medical knights alone invested more than 4,000 troops in the armored knights and the reserve team, not to mention the infantry groups and flanks with a total of more than 30,000 people on standby. Five thousand light armored cavalry.

Even though the remaining Kaslandi knight showed a fearless and heroic attitude, but fate 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. Byzantine’s step into Kaslandi seems to have no one to stop it-but Prince Hades and Duke Windsor on the front line 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 Constantinople has responded to this. After receiving the order from His Majesty the Emperor, the prince led his troops towards the north of Byzantine, and the Duke of Windsor led another army to Kas Randy.

Consolidate the advantages of the country and promulgate new territories and lords. This is the practice after every expansion of the country.

Lilith escaped from the original Scout Reconnaissance Battalion and entered the official cavalry squadron with her own skills in the previous battles. The female knight without any emblem on her chest became a bright color in the Iron-Blooded Barracks, but when they boasted For the first time when the cavalry with extraordinary force saw the female knight with a rifle charge at the front line, the inner **** discrimination and superiority disappeared.

Day-to-day patrols and battles have allowed Lilith to grow rapidly-not only is riding and combat skills becoming more and more sophisticated, but more of it is thinking about war, empires, and even the world .

Originally arrogant, she no longer complains from her heart about the dried meat that is worse than wood. She no longer goes to be irritated and tired because she can’t take a bath for a few weeks. She sleeps on the horse for a while, thirsty, Take a water bag and drink it at will.

Daughter of the Prince?

Since the surname is Longinus, he must have the temper of Longinus.

Killing more than a hundred enemies, Lilith witnessed the moment when countless enemies were pierced through their bodies or cut flying, and they understood how fragile they were.

When the comrades around her continue to die, she begins to understand that perhaps countless enemies of warriors who cannot be killed will die from a bite of a poisonous insect, and a seemingly insignificant arrow penetrates the wound, or it may make an excellent knight Painful death from tetanus.

When the war came to an end, she had refused to return to Constantinople four times for the ceremony.

Now, following the advancement of the Duke Windsor team to the country of Caslandi, the army that is about to enter the winter truce begins to rotate with the domestic reserve team, but Lilith still stays in this cold On the land.

What exactly makes her so persistent, no one knows-even when the Duke Windsor occasionally greets in person, she does not want to say much.

Her face that was once domineering and arrogant has rarely seen smiles, and war has given her a thorough insight into the cruel side of this world.

In the early winter of Constantinople, the joyous atmosphere of a victorious military operation is obvious.

The nobles who participated in the battle several times walked across the Arc de Triomphe in the middle of the city, receiving the cheers and flowers of the people. This is an urban event that must be experienced every two weeks from autumn to now.

The success stories are frequently reported, the frontline is fully victorious, the territorial expansion, and the acquisition of resources make the national strength of the empire significantly increase.

This is the news that most civilians and low-ranking nobles like to hear, and as for the wanted criminal, the young heir who was convicted of "heresy", "blasphemy" and "treason" at the same time, it seems to have been No one cares anymore.

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 behind them have never mentioned the name. The department has been silent for a long time. Only in the hall of the Inquisition, there is still a wanted order with the Morpheus head and its family crest.

The time limit is marked "permanent".

This seems to be slightly contrary to the meaning of the Constantinople emperor-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 Patriarch’s Court and the Inquisition, 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 status is Constantinople, who can work 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 Morpheus or even the headquarters is not far from the Duke’s Palace of Windsor, they can’t stop the extreme hatred of the heretics from the fanatics, so the matter Even though it has been more than half a year ago, it is still not forgotten.

And in recent days, it seems that the hatred of Morpheus in the tribunal has resurrected-the fluctuation of the scepter can make Gabriel’s Vatican Holy See go mad and even go crazy to Balice for the so-called "jihad" , The same can let the Patriarch's Holy Court be affected by it...or rather, shake.

Edward III took a few trips to the Patriarch’s Court personally for this purpose. This is a rare thing for His Majesty the King, but fortunately, in the end, His Majesty the King and the Patriarch reached a consensus. Byzantine did not arrive at the moment of the severe winter. What a silly thing to do, but apparently the team secretly discharged by the Inquisition is already a thing that Edward III and the Patriarch selectively ignored with one eye closed-for Morpheus, this is really not good news.

Honoring, banqueting, hunting. This seems to be the most social event that the Byzantine nobles and royals have participated in the most recently. However, while the nobles indulged in joy, Edward III quietly sent his envoy to the east by boat.

Osgilia, which is separated from the sea, a country that has not had too many intersections with the mainland where Byzantine is located for a long time, was still a scene of struggle between different clans fighting hundreds of years ago, and this impression has always made this side of the sea. The Byzantine never bothered to observe each other's development.

However, today when the maritime industry began to flourish on the mainland, Edward III of Byzantine seems to have made the same decision as His Majesty Hasselblad of Balice-far and near.

As the most western country in the eastern continent, Osgilia has shown its huge potential in the past 100 years. After the highly concentrated integration of the country, this originally fragmented country has begun to move towards Unstoppable prosperity, he has closely followed every move of this country adjacent to Byzantine since he became king, and now, he formally dispatched a fleet, and envoys brought countless treasures to Sulai of Osgeria Man I formed an alliance.

This means that in the next ten years, the trade between Byzantine and Osgilia will bring enormous wealth to this huge empire.

According to the previous investigation, the developing Osgeria will bring a huge trade surplus to Byzantine-this alone is enough for Edward III to name "History of Byzantine".

However, as Edward's sauna 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 Byzantine began to shift to the north, and another cloud of war in the western part of the mainland...had already covered the sky above Ballice.

Sicelin City, night.

For all cities and "night watchmen" that have been on the right track, the current time has entered a state of contention. 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, the lords can only rely on themselves to resist foreign enemies in the situation where the Sibalice royal family has not intervened-even if they understand that this is the royal family’s deliberate sit-by and wait for their internal consumption, but it is really the stage of life and death, no People will wait and die.

The city lost its past laughter and laughter and replaced it with depression and tranquility.

Morpheus Windsor~IndoMTL.com~ This subtle guy who is at the moment on the edge of the night watchman but is a subtle identity is inspecting the progress of the construction team in front of the tower passageway to Arantis, and the man has not returned since coming to the surface Krenze, the night elf, stood not far from him.

The two were obviously not pre-appointed. Morpheus did not pay much attention or favor to him. When passing by, they just greeted lightly. Sunderland specially designed for fear of Kronze language communication obstacles. I found a scholar to translate Fuding for him. When faced with Morpheus, Krenze also looked a little stereotyped. After nodding with a stiff expression, the two stood silent in front of the dark entrance.

The huge circular entrance was originally straight up and down like a knife, but at the moment, a number of stairs have been cut under the edge of the excavation, and at least eighteen channels have begun to expand outward.

The space teleportation circle in the manufacturing plane may be possible for Sunderland, but the cost is extremely high, because the energy consumption is a huge gap, so it can not 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. Morpheus is thinking about how to use those resources underground.
