Chapter 374
Saint-Laurent City, the Royal Palace Chamber.

Shia was still sitting on the throne, and those high-ranking officials and nobles were still below him.

Judging from the situation in the chamber, the atmosphere has become extremely tense.As soldiers approach the city, everyone's opinions are constantly colliding in the meeting hall. Some advocate fighting, some advocate retreat, and some even advocate surrender.

Among them, 90.00% five are the main battle and the main drop.

Only Shia himself and Vega's direct subordinates advocated defending the city, so the conflict was formed.

The nobles and officials are not good at swearing at Shia, so they can only insinuate and satirize the officers under Vega's account: "My lords, what will we use to fight with our Saint Laurent's strength, and what will we use to resist the attack of 20 troops? "

"Rely on your 2 remnants, or 8 recruits?"

A rich nobleman cursed: "You want His Majesty to stay here to be buried with you. Those 8 recruits haven't even completed basic training, so they can't form a fighting force at all. As for your 2 remnants, can you stop the enemy?" 20 troops? Is there any precedent for this kind of war in history?"

"What Your Excellency Derry said is very true."

The senior officials with two beards echoed: "Now use your empire's 2 troops and our 8 recruits to break through to Shenghui City. Maybe there is still hope of escaping. When the general attack comes tomorrow, even if you want to leave, you won't be able to leave." gone."

"Without the order of the Brigadier, we will not take a step back."

The faces of the two officers were firm. Vega's order was to stick to Saint Laurent instead of retreating, so let alone a 20 army ahead, they would not retreat even if it was 100 million or 1000 million.

They believed in Veigar.

They believed that the general who was one round younger than them would definitely make history.

"Impossible."

Everyone criticized the two officers again, and at the end, everyone bowed to Shia in unison.

"Your Majesty, please think twice."

The old nobleman headed by said loyally: "As long as you can survive, Your Majesty, there is still hope for our holy dynasty, so please order to retreat. Although the 8 warriors in our army are recruits, we will definitely protect you."

Facing the forced palace, Shia is also extremely strong.

She said loudly: "I will not surrender, nor will I retreat. If you still have the energy to persuade me to escape, you might as well think about how to repel the kingdom's 20 troops."

"Your Majesty, no one can do this."

An officer stood up and said: "I have been in the army for half my life, and I have also wanted to find the factors of victory in this war, but whether it is military strength, high-level military force, or military quality...we don't have any points of victory, and a battle without victory factors It is absolutely impossible to win the war."

"What if someone can really win this war?"

Vega's subordinates said slightly unconvinced: "Don't forget who repelled the kingdom's 20 army last time."

"That's just a coincidence."

Another officer stood up and retorted: "General Vega was just opportunistic that time. Perhaps the kingdom did not make up its mind to carry out the final decisive battle, but this time is obviously different. The kingdom's army is ready to fight to the death."

"No matter what, I will not leave Saint Laurent."

Shia stood up and was about to leave: "Everyone, please prepare for the battle. If anyone talks about retreating and surrendering, please take them down on the spot instead of me, my two lords."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The two regiment leaders showed cruel smiles. They had long felt uncomfortable with this group of court ministers. Now that the king said that they could execute those who dared to retreat and surrender, they would not be merciful.

But at this moment, a guard rushed into the chamber.

"Your Majesty, it's not good."

This voice startled everyone in the audience, and the nobles and officials who were talking too much just now were scared out of their wits. They were even more anxious than Xi Ya: "F-what happened? But the kingdom launched a general attack?"

"it's not true."

The guard pointed to the outside of the door and said: "I don't know who it is, killed the guard at the gate of the palace, and set up a tombstone, a tombstone at the main entrance. On the tombstone it says...it says..."

"What did you write?"

Everyone let out a long breath at first, but they raised their hearts.

The guard did not answer, but looked at Shia.

Seeing this, Shia nodded and said, "There are no outsiders here, so it's okay for you to say so."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The guard quickly explained the whole thing: "It is written on the tombstone, Saint Laurent XIX, the tomb of Sia Saint Laurent."

wow-

This chamber is boiling.

The old official said in a trembling voice: "Is the Kingdom issuing a death notice for us? Hurry up and destroy that tombstone for me. Do you want to shake our army's morale?"

"This, humble job, can't do it."

The guard said nervously: "It's not that we haven't tried to destroy the tombstone, but every time after we destroy it, it will be erected again in half an hour. Now there are more and more onlookers, and the matter is getting wider and wider."

"Idiots, you bunch of idiots."

The veteran yelled at the guard, and even drew his sword to kill the guard in a rage.

But Shia stopped everyone, she said to the guards, "Take me to see now."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The chief guard let out a sigh of relief, and a group of people came to the gate of the palace.

With a few tens of meters away, Shia felt the noise. Looking from afar, she saw that the civilians had already surrounded the entrance of the palace, and there was a thick tombstone erected there.

Come near.

Saint Laurent XIX, the tomb of Sia Saint Laurent has a few big blood red characters on it.

The words "Saint Laurent XIX" are too small to be seen clearly unless they are close, but the large characters of "Tomb of Shia Saint Laurent" are very conspicuous, and can be clearly seen even standing a few meters away.

At this time, the onlookers also saw Shia.

An excited commoner stepped forward and asked, "May I ask your Majesty, is Saint Laurent going to fall again? Can you really make the dynasty rise again? Can our army defeat the kingdom!"

"Everyone, please don't worry, Saint Laurent will never fall again."

Even though she was terrified in her heart, Shia knew that she must not be stage fright at this time. If even she, the king, was afraid, then the army would lose morale, and they would even lose their positions before tomorrow's attack.

"We don't trust your assurances."

A woman stood up and said: "Your royal family has abandoned us last time. This time you must be planning to escape again. If you want to abandon us again, please order the disbandment of the recruits. I don't want my son to sacrifice his life in vain."

"That's right! Don't treat our loyalty like a consumer product."

"You are simply incapable of defeating the kingdom, and this tombstone is the best proof."

"..."

I don't know who started the rhythm, the whole scene was very chaotic, a crowd of civilians who were excited moved towards Shia one after another, and the guards' blocking had begun to become weak.

"Please return to the palace, Your Majesty."

The chief guard quickly advised Shia to return to the palace. Once the civilians rioted, they would not have the courage to stop them. If they attacked the civilians without authorization, it would only intensify the conflict and make the civilians lose their confidence in the royal family.

"Trust me, please believe me..."

Shia ignored the chief guard's advice, instead of retreating, she tried to explain something to the civilians.

But her tiny voice couldn't stir up any waves. I don't know which commoner threw an egg at Shia. The guards simply blocked the egg for Shia, but the splashing egg white made Shia's pupils shrink sharply. .

Scared.

Scared like never before.

The distorted faces around her frightened her to the extreme. At this moment, she felt as if she had come to a terrifying hell, surrounded by ugly ghosts that wanted to devour her soul.

"General Vega, Shia, Shia..."

Weak tears dripped from her face to the ground: "I'm sorry, Shia, Shia... I can't hold it anymore."

This scene fell in the eyes of everyone.

The ministers were disappointed, the soldiers were desperate, and the civilians were angry. The scene was almost out of control.
