Warhammer Throne
Chapter 161: , Autumn rain bursts
After Louis Duke of Connet and Duke of Leonsay temporarily left, King Richard sat alone on the throne, thinking about it all.
There is no doubt that his nephew, Angsy Desmond, deserves his trust and teachings. It is his mistakes that have sent the entire army of knights, and his nephew must bear great responsibility for this war.
Now, the king has to face the aggressive princes. The lost army needs a huge sum of money from the kingdom finance to compensate for the loss. In a short time, the king does not know how to find such a huge sum of money.
It seems that I have to go and discuss the loan with Van Der Cooper-Schulz, Duke Marinburg "loaner". When I think of the money owed by the royal finances to Mariinburg, the old king has a face There was pain in the flesh. He counted it last year. Brittania owed hundreds of thousands of gold coins to Fort Marin just for short-term royal debt, which is not long-term debt.
Well, the money is put aside in advance, and Richard also has to face who is responsible for this.
First of all, he must set the tone, that is, he must not assume this responsibility as a king, otherwise his throne is in danger of being shaken.
Anyway, Angsy is dead.
Adelaide also died, and only Baron Lion survived.
Thinking of this, Richard's heart burst into flames. If it can be changed a bit, for example, Ryan is dead, one of Angsy or Adelaide survives and leads six thousand remnants to obtain How good should it be to win.
Then the nature of this war can be transformed. He will vigorously promote this tragic victory, shape the commander of this army as a national hero, and vigorously promote the destruction of Wanmoyan to make the country worry-free for decades and create a kind of "Victory is victory" and "a legendary victory" to block everyone's mouth.
But the one who survived and finally won the victory was the magical champion of the lake fairy-Ryan Macado.
Although this kid is very strong, but he is never his own, never.
On the contrary, his factions are extremely rich in color. He used to be the White Wolf Knight, his adoptive father was the White Wolf Knight, his godfather was the Duke of Griffin, and he was both the **** champion of the fairy in the lake and the Duke of Winford. "Long-legged" Francois' vassal, from any angle, he is not his own.
At the same time, the army he led also included the army of Bastogne.
But can Richard directly punish Ryan? Can he hold Lane accountable for not saving the knightly army and the Marquis of Onchy?
In fact, it will not work. Richard ’s mature political wisdom tells him that he cannot be held accountable, at least not now, because Ryan brought back victory.
At this juncture, he is the hero of this country, and Richard must never publicly punish him, otherwise his prestige will certainly be compromised.
However, from his standpoint, he can't give this guy who is not his own faction too high a reward, otherwise it is equivalent to encouraging the knights to set up a hill in disguise and not listening to the command, which will further weaken the kingship.
This is no different from capital rivals. Within the kingdom, Francois Duke of Winford and Birchmond Duke of Bastogne have always been deeply in conflict with him. This knightly war is the only one left. The armies of the two principalities have not suffered great losses, and have also experienced the baptism of blood and fire.
With this trade-off, the king did not want to benefit them anymore.
But this came back again, still the same sentence, it was because Ryan removed the Demon Rock, and he brought back victory.
It's almost a dead end, and it's still a dead end.
The king knew he needed to find a way from another angle.
As for the issue of not holding the triumph, it is not a big problem. In such a heavy loss situation, no matter how from any angle, the triumph can be justified, and Ryan cannot force it. The eight Dukes who will be annihilated by the army will oppose .
After thinking for a while, the king's heart gradually counted.
Victory must be a victory. There was no fiasco in this Knightly War, but this was a glorious victory!
So since you do n’t want to give credit to living people, you should attribute it to the dead!
As for the people of Lane, let them dry and kill their arrogance, and then give them enough rewards to shut them up.
Now, to wait for the arrival of the dukes, the king and the dukes will meet to discuss how the war will end.
…………
In late September, when Ryan led the Right Army out of the forest, the autumn of the Knights of Brittany became stronger, and the serfs were harvesting food numbly.
Walking in the wilderness, the knights were quite relieved, and they protected the people in the field through their efforts.
They are now winners.
Nothing is more glorious than defending the country.
There has been a saying that if the Brittany knights did not take the initiative to initiate wars because they were not defending their homeland, if not the Holy Grail knights needed to protect the lady ’s holy land, perhaps the Brittany knights Able to conquer the world.
This is of course an unreasonable speculation, but it also shows how the old world humans were afraid of the knights of the knight kingdom.
The army followed the road and arrived at the castle of Artois. This castle is only one day away from Curona. Ryan received the order from the knight king. The leadership of several people can go directly to Curona to wait for the announcement, of course, they will rest together in the Artois castle tonight.
This command has made Ryan smell something different. Normally, an army can't enter the city after fighting chaotic creatures. It usually takes a period of rest to observe the aftereffects.
But Ryan still smelled differently.
As the army approached the Artois castle, Ryan opened his eyes wide.
An army is already waiting for them.
No, not an army.
Are two armies.
Under the towering Artois Castle, two elite Kingdom Knights are waiting for their arrival.
On the left, the red fire dragon's family coat of arms flag sways in the wind, and the golden tassel under the flag is swinging with the autumn wind.
Under the banner, the fiery red Bastogne Kingdom knights in full armor waited in line, their shields were engraved with the emblem of the red dragon on the yellow background, and dozens of kingdom knights stood in a very neat queue.
Gold helmet and silver armor, the feather is brilliant.
The knight standing at the front has a mighty power like a dragon. He has a fortified and vicissitudes of his face. Around his body, the space is sinking slightly, with light red energy around. Holding him in motion.
Undoubtedly, he is the famous Patriarch of the Red Dragon family, the Duke of Bastogne, and the "Beast Butcher" Perchmond de Bastogne: "Salute the knights who returned from victory!"
"salute!"
On the right, the pure daytime horse flutters in the clouds under the family coat of arms, and the Tianma rider holding the flag is shuttled through the golden sunset in autumn.
Duke Winford's "long legs" Francois smiled and stood before the knights of the Winford Kingdom with silver helmets and white armor. His elegant face was full of smiles. When the Ryan arrived, the Duke himself waved: " Good afternoon, soldiers, playing well. "
"Father!" Antri brothers and sisters called out successively, and they did not expect the Duke to wait for himself here!
"Father! I ..." Gabriel also rushed in front of the Red Dragon Duke, who smiled rudely, then patted his chest: "It's okay, it didn't embarrass the family."
Only Ryan was left in place, and the Holy Grail Knight himself smiled awkwardly.
I'm used to it, since he came to this world, he has always been alone.
Attentive Suria immediately realized Ryan's embarrassment, and she turned back to Ryan and said softly, "Come on, Lord Ryan, my father has something to tell us."
"Okay." Ryan shrugged, seeing the female knight so empathetic, a warmth rose in his heart.
The Duke of Red Dragon came up and shook hands with him: "Thank you, young man, I have listened to Gabriel, and I will not talk about other nonsense. I am also the Holy Grail Knight, and I remember you."
"You're welcome, this is what I should do." Lane could feel the terrible breath from the Duke of Birchmond.
The Duke of the Red Dragon is even stronger than Francois, the Duke of Winford. Among the strong humans that Lane knows, only the Lake God Witch and the Duke Griffon can match him.
This model of knighthood, the great holy knight has always been committed to loyalty to the fairy in the lake. His dream is to become a holy place for the holy knight to guard the fairy in the lake, but the fairy in the lake orders him to accept the land sovereignty of his ancestors. Govern the people, not become a holy grail knight to charge.
Even so, the duke has become a famous beastman slaughterer. In addition, the duke himself is not interested in governing the territory. He always delegates this task to his acting officer, and then leads his own family knights. Destroy the evil. His rifle hole passes through the Doom Bull and the Greenskin Warlord. His long sword has killed the Vampire Count and the Chaos Champion.
The Duke firmly followed the teachings of the fairy in the lake. When the opponent was a human, he used a lance to shoot the opponent off the horse and never made up the knife. This earned him the respect of countless people, even if he was His enemies also admire his noble virtues. The Duke is always committed to fighting the evil in his own territory, and will only return to the castle to rest when the territory is unharmed.
"It's hard, Ryan, you're doing very well." Francois came to Ryan, and he patted Ryan on the shoulder: "Otherwise it's not suitable to say here, let's enter Atwa Castle, let People first arrange accommodation and dinner for the army, the soldiers are tired. "
"Okay." There will be a dedicated clerk right away.
Arranging military accommodation and meals for more than 4,000 people is a hard job, but these rounds can not be done by the knights. Ryan followed the two Dukes and their descendants directly to the center of Artois Castle, where, The attendants have arranged a sumptuous dinner table to reward the knights returning from the expedition.
A group of people walked towards the inner courtyard of the castle. Ryan noticed that it was a very, very large three-story castle. Shooting, artillery and large bed crossbows were distributed on the city walls.
"Good defense, who is stationing this castle now?" Ryan asked with interest.
Brittania is not completely without artillery.
Unlike the empire opposite the Grey Mountains, if the covenant between the empire and the dwarf is called the eternal blood alliance, then the relationship between Brittania and the dwarf can only be said to be general.
The Empire has very few secrets about gunpowder that are willing to share with the Knight Kingdom, so most of the Knight Kingdom can only spend a lot of money to buy outdated or obsolete artillery from the Empire or the dwarves. These artillery are good for defense and the field effect is not good Too.
"The castle of Artois is now managed by Baron Zieg. He rarely stays here. It is not his territory, but is directly under the jurisdiction of the king himself." Francois took over the question of Ryan: "Here was Lord Atois, only after the Dorta incident, Duke Attu also participated in the civil war. "
"The Duke of Artois died in battle? But it's impossible to find even an heir?" Ryan noticed that even after more than two hundred years had passed, there were still many places in the castle where Artois could be seen. Family coat of arms.
Birchmond, the Duke of the Red Dragon, sighed softly: "I can't find it."
"Why?" This time it was the turn of the horsewoman Surya, who was also very interested in the matter.
"When the civil war ended, the Knight King Taylor Buddha discovered by accident that the Duke of Artois and his own family had been vampireized, and they were gradually reduced to midnight nobility. In desperation, Her Majesty Taylor Buddha and the Lake God Witch His Royal Highness waged a knightly war together and wiped out Duke Zilfroy of Artois and his family. "
"At this time, the entire Duke of Artois has been harassed for ten years by the number of beasts, many territories have been flooded with forests, and many people have turned into dust. After the war, the title of Duke Artois could not find one. The right heir, Count Fogel, who is most qualified to inherit the title of Duke of Artois, has already been killed in the Civil War, so the Duke of Artois was adopted by the Principality of Leonsay, Principality of Le Angourand and Principality of Connet Divided, obviously, because the Knight King at that time was served by the Duke of Leonsay, the Principality of Leonsay was divided into much more territory than the other two Dukes ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ It turned out to be the case. "Lane nodded.
Unconsciously, it began to rain outside the castle.
The autumn winds are blowing, the night rain is clear, the clouds are thick outside the castle, and the fine autumn rain falls from the sky, adding its last stroke to the autumn harvest. Sitting in the castle's banquet hall, everyone can also smell the fragrance and mud fresh air.
In the sound of rain outside the window, everyone sat down and enjoyed a sumptuous dinner. Ryan consciously sat down at the end of the long table, and Surya sat beside him.
Francois first looked at Ryan, and then at the daughter sitting next to Ryan, and smiled deeply: "Ryan, do you know what happened to you in this knightly war? Except for Para now. The Duke of Weng and the Duke of Beleone, and all the Dukes of the entire kingdom are rushing to the capital, Curona, to discuss the rewards and punishments for you and your army. "
"I know." Lane smiled bitterly, he understood that he did not go back to support the annihilated Marquis of Angshi, but chose to go straight to Wanmoyan is a controversial decision, because the knight is a professional soldier, and the duty is to obey the order.
Although Ryan did nothing wrong in terms of results and long-term perspective.
"Well, if you have self-knowledge, let's eat first and finish. Let us analyze this matter carefully and let us see what we can get and what price we have to pay."
"I understand, my Duke."
The handling of any plot cannot satisfy everyone. There is controversy and it is normal to have your own opinions. I also welcome everyone to discuss it, but first I will buckle up with an unreasonable big hat, or just open the mouth to drop the aura or something. Forget it, I can only try to ensure that the basic logic works, if everyone feels okay ... I wo n’t write a web post here, do you?
