She Is Not a Witch

When the coalition troops from the western border approached the city of Titania, the northern army gradually broke through the blockade led by Darcy.

Those tough-willed northern soldiers were divided into several groups, and they penetrated the defense line from the mountains and penetrated into the rear of the formation from various trails, sides, or bypassing checkpoints.

The number of legions in his hands is limited, no matter how much Darcy sticks to it, he can't change the balance that is gradually falling. Seeing that the rear was gradually being harassed and even blocked by the infiltrating Northern Army Corps, Darcy also decided to lead the Army Corps under his command to withdraw gradually, return to the central provinces to garrison, and continue to resist.

Even though he also received the tragic battle report from the imperial capital, since the emperor did not order him to retreat, he would continue to resist here.

If they rush back to the imperial capital for rescue, the result may not only fail to save them, but also cause the army in the northern border to overtake them, causing chaos or even collapse, and finally aggravate the crisis in the imperial capital.

For this reason, the choice became more and more difficult, and many soldiers and officers in the legion were also worried about the rear, making it difficult to concentrate on fighting.

If His Majesty the Emperor passed away, then for whom were they fighting like this, and what was the point? Everything became a question that weighed heavily on the hearts of soldiers and generals.

This is also the defect of the empire in the old era. Power and value depend on the will of the emperor. Once the royal family changes, it will bring many problems one after another, such as the establishment of trust, whether to stand in line, etc., so that people who were originally concerned about national affairs have to put a lot of money The energy turns to the power struggle, and even makes it all pursuit.

The provinces in the central part of the empire gradually fell, and the territory flying the rose flag gradually shrank, while the Griffon flag representing the western region advanced layer by layer. After temporarily failing to attack Titania, the western region coalition forces began to attack the rest of the provinces again. If it is captured, it will definitely turn Titania into an isolated city.

And because the crisis was imminent, it was difficult for the army in the city to send out support, and the provinces under the command of the empire began to fall one by one.

In this way, two months later, the army led by Darcy gradually retreated to stabilize the remaining situation and keep the few provinces behind Titania.

At this time, the gray northern jackdaw finally crossed the long border and journey, and arrived at the city of Titania.

It was late autumn, and the climate became gloomy and gloomy. Under the gloomy sky, some jackdaws with gray and blue wings were circling and flying, making lonely and desolate calls from time to time.

In the big camp outside the city, the Duke of Griffin was meeting with the Duke of Raven to reminisce about the old days, and in an open space next to the large tent where they were discussing, Jailan also saw Miss Faxiner who was engaged to him again .

"Hello, Master Jielanen." The girl with black hair and black eyes raised her skirt and saluted. Her appearance didn't seem to have changed much in recent years, and she was still so delicate, which made people feel pity.

"Long time no see. How are you lately, Fa Xin'er?" Jelan en sighed in his heart as he looked at the girl. It was only two or three years since he hadn't seen each other, but it seemed that the last date had been a long, long time ago. Looking at myself now as a teenager, it is so distant and a little strange.

"It's not too bad." Fa Xiner shook her head and replied softly.

Then the two walked together on the hill not far from the camp, talking to each other about recent years.

Some are about war, some are about life, and some are about daily life in their respective homes.

"My mother passed away one night a year ago because of her illness, and my father buried her in a garden full of cold moon flowers." Fa Xiner talked about the past in a soft voice, but she seemed to have passed away from her sorrow Come out, without much mood swings.

"It's really a pity that I didn't get to see my aunt." Jailan sighed, and then he took Fa Xin'er's hand and held it gently, as if he wanted to comfort her.

After that, Jailan took Faxin'er and sat down on the hillside, looking at the majestic Titania in the distance.

"I asked my father about the wedding date, but my father never gave me a definite answer in the past two years. I didn't know the reason until the beginning of this year."

"After the war started, I negotiated with my father. We will hold a wedding when Titania is captured and the new emperor ascends the throne after the war."

"At that time, the emperor of the empire will also bless us in the square. It will be a grand and beautiful wedding, which symbolizes the coming of peace..." Jie Lanen imagined the beautiful future vision for Fa Xiner, while the other side The girl nodded slowly and responded softly.

Time passed quietly like this, until the sun slowly sank to the horizon, the torches in the camp were gradually lit, and the two returned to the camp together.

In the third era, 1710, in October of the Year of the Autumn Wind, the Duke of Griffon in the west and the Duke of Raven in the north met. Countless people thought that the two dukes would jointly attack the city here and occupy Titania. But what is unexpected is that the two dukes had a certain degree of quarrel in the big tent where they met, and finally broke up unhappy.

It's just that such a thing was not known to the soldiers and the lords under his command. It was not until a month or two in the future that the seemingly incompatible relationship between the two was gradually noticed by some caring people.

The Duke of Griffin hopes to join forces with the Duke of Raven to overthrow the royal family and make his family the ruler of the empire. In exchange, Jaylan will marry Faxiner and their descendants will inherit the throne.

But such a move undoubtedly betrayed the slogan of the two when they raised their troops. It was only to overthrow Elio's rule and change the emperor for another emperor.

Although outsiders may see little difference between the two, there is a significant legal difference for people in the northern border.

At the beginning, the empire accepted the survivors of Everdark Isle, and they also swore allegiance. If it wasn’t for the will of the Witch, they would not have rebelled at all. Afterwards, the Duke of Griffin’s banner was only to overthrow Elio, not to destroy the empire. ~www.readwn.com~ Only then did Duke Raven reluctantly agree.

But now the Duke of Griffin wants to go further and directly replace him, which is unacceptable to the Duke of Raven and many northern lords.

It is understandable for them to be loyal to the empire. At any rate, the empire is inherited from the Cangyue Kingdom. It is said that they are descendants of the True Red Empire. From the perspective of blood, legal principles, and righteousness, it is not shameful to be part of them.

However, what is the origin of the Griffin family? It’s only a few hundred years of history, and the people in the northern border are basically the survivors of the Mercury Dynasty. It is simply impossible to ask them to be loyal to this 'barbaric' upstart Salius family. accept.

Even if it is a marriage, such a thing is still unbearable, and Duke Raven is more the leader of the northern lords than the master. Therefore, even if Fa Xin'er became the queen, it would not be able to change the views of many northern lords.

As a result, the war continued, but the siege gradually stagnated strangely, and the two sides began to fall into a confrontation, until the cold winter gradually came, and the mainland gradually entered the season of falling snowflakes.
