Chapter 622 War
December 619st, 4th year of the New Calendar.
A piece of alarming news spread throughout the Yestije Kingdom.
In the northern part of the kingdom, in the territory of the warrior captain earl, a small nobleman who had recently been knighted for his bravery in battle launched a rebellion.
Knights are the initial class among the nobility. They can organize a peasant army of several hundred people with all their efforts. Everyone thinks it is not enough, and the consul of the local lord city can easily capture them.
Unfortunately, things developed beyond expectations.
December 619st, 5th year of the New Calendar.
A knight named Clarin Dragneel showed his allegiance to the first prince and led a force of 500 people to capture the medium-sized cities around the knight's territory and recruit troops aggressively.
Due to the assassination by the "empire's" secret forces, the warrior captain was still recovering from his injuries in the royal capital, and the king forbade him from going to war.
So he ordered the surrounding nobles to put down the rebellion as soon as possible.
After the end of the demi-human war, the first prince proved that he had no talent in the military field. He also lost an important support due to the deaths of his main supporters, the Marquis of the North and the former Ulowar Border Count. entered an unprecedented period of decline.
At that time, Marquis Lei Wen hoped to absorb this garrison with rich combat experience, so he offered generous terms to recruit and was willing to make up for the vacancy.
Taxes were levied according to the scale of the manor knights, but in fact, Clarin only had one dilapidated village. In addition, the accumulation during his time as a merchant was lost in the war, and the cavalry military salary also changed jobs and could no longer be raised. Marquis Raven did pay the agreed remuneration. , but it did not actually fall into the hands of the soldiers.
It was not until this time that information about the rebel leaders was sent to the king's desk.
Seeing that there was no hope or hope, the original thieves looted the place at night and killed the lord's wife who was in charge.
time flies.
5 month 10 day.
After the subsequent war, Clarin accumulated the merits of becoming a knight with the comprehensive level LV19 strength, but the manor has been unable to implement it.
Clarin accepted the thieves and took the group as guards. At this time, his wife had given birth to twin brothers.
Therefore, no one is optimistic about Clarin Dragneel's actions, thinking that he is just an abandoned son promoted by those behind the scenes to test the trouble.
When the demi-humans swept through the Northland, they went bankrupt, fled with their pregnant new wife, and were separated.
Later, he joined the Black Knight's cavalry unit and was ordered to become one of the two thousand people left to guard the northern city.
Because Clarin wanted to find his wife, he agreed to the invitation to join the Royal Army. After all, the Royal Army was more stable than the original army, which had a strong sense of pioneering.
Clarin took advantage of the situation and attacked the Earl City of the warrior captain. The process was extremely easy because the consul took the initiative to abandon the city and fled.
He was granted the title of earldom by the warrior captain, and a group of thieves took the initiative to return his separated wife.
Clarin Dragneel was originally just an ordinary small businessman in the North. His ancestors worked as a squire for a knight, and he gained his surname because of his sacrifice for the knight.
The second prince had been confirmed as the heir a month ago.
The territory went bankrupt half a year later.
Three hours later, two hundred low-level demons entered the battlefield and the counter-rebellion troops were defeated.
When Clarin returned with the hunting team he organized, what he saw was the village burned in the fire.
An encounter broke out between counterinsurgency troops and rebels on the plains five hundred miles south of Beifang City.
The next day, a pair of babies and a dozen heads were sent back, along with a black magic book containing a huge amount of knowledge. Because the writer was extremely special, and the content and specifications exceeded a certain level, this This book has become something of an anomaly within the realm of the occult, amounting to something of a "first appearance."
Black magic is a lost magic, and the gain comes with a price. In the ashes of the village, Clarin suddenly became a steel-level existence with a comprehensive level of LV33. For unknown reasons, his wife's face grew on his back.
Then came the rebellion. …
5 month 20 day.
The kingdom finally paid attention to the problem of rebellion in the north.
The war-weariness caused by the demi-human war was forcibly suppressed, and after the war, the two major knights stationed in the royal capital were dispatched.
But when the army arrived in the North, the rebels were already deserted.
5 month 26 day.
Clarin led an army of 3,000 men to attack the fortress city in the west.
Rebels claim they have discovered a treasure left behind by the famous king of thieves in history.
A large number of adventurers joined and received really good salaries.
This "windfall" greatly enhanced the overall strength of the rebels. Because the fortress city was close to the Qazi Plain where the Great Tomb was located, the Theocracy turned a blind eye to Yestije's situation.
On June 6, two knights attacked the fortress city.
A strange humanoid black dragon appeared on the battlefield.
Clarin mastered the black magic of creating demons, and with more and more corpses, after three days of fierce fighting, the Knights were defeated.
The disgraceful performance of the royal army reminded the nobles of the disastrous defeat in the demihuman war.
A large number of nobles in the west chose to flee. The land rights of the nobles were sacred and inviolable. As long as the bloodline remained, legally they did not lose the inherited land.
The rebels grew bigger, and half of the west fell.
The royal family announced war mobilization, but very few responded. The great noble Duke Ulowar refused to send troops because of the unusual behavior of the demihuman kingdom and the imminent attack on the border wall by the holy kingdom.
The old king, who had just married a new queen a few months ago, fell ill.
In front of the bed, as the monarch, he issued the last formal royal order to the five nobles and summoned the five people to go to the royal capital.
At the same time, the rebels got in touch with their nominal allegiance, the First Prince, through the largest underground organization, the Eight Fingers.
The prince is currently imprisoned in the royal capital and no one is allowed to meet him.
The rebels have completely entered the accumulation stage, begun to infiltrate and manage the areas under their control, and formed an alliance with several large lizard tribes in the swamps around the Qazi Plain, expanding their scale wildly.
6 month 10 day.
At the king's call.
Five nobles entered the capital to discuss counterinsurgency matters.
……
The sky was overcast.
The earth dragon chariot is speeding on the royal plain, and the summer harvest is proceeding in an orderly manner. The second prince who is now in charge of government affairs has been recognized by many parties for his level in related fields. In the confinement of the first prince, the situation of the golden princess marrying far away can basically be locked. The throne of the next king.
The dragon carriage crossed the city gate, and the royal capital was not as prosperous as imagined. The impact of the war was secondary. The focus was on the vast lower city area, where workers and nightingales from all over the country gathered, continuously delivering nutrients to the upper levels.
The pattering rain fell on the canals on both sides, and the foul smell spread with the splash. The guards patrolling the streets looked listless. Two failed wars made the people aware of a serious problem, that is, the kingdom did not predict Such a powerful and loose aristocratic coalition system could not muster effective power to resist rebellion and attack.
