Chapter 992

The sunny day rises at the beginning, which is long and leisurely. The Dragon roar like thunder awakens the sleeping Jufeng mountain.

When the people in the camp at the foot of the mountain rubbed their sleepy eyes and woke up and walked out of the tent, what they saw was a scene they could not forget all their life!

Cyan, gold, silver, red and dark purple... There are rows of giant dragons that are often rare to see in ordinary days, but today there are so many that they can be dazzling!

The two wings rise horizontally, open their teeth and claws, and fly up and down the clouds on the top of the mountain; The Dragon roar made people feel as if their souls were trembling and dancing.

The next moment, the roaring dragons broke through the clouds, drove the sky in the center of Jufeng peak and flew in all directions.

There was silence in the stunned camp, and then there was a cheer no worse than the Dragon roar!

In particular, many refugees and legions in East Saxony - if eboden and Bain were just surprised, they were shocked.

In the legends and history of their generations, only twice have they seen dragons rolling into the clouds and dancing on the top of Jufeng mountain - and each time, it indicates that they are about to reach a turning point in the fate of the Empire.

The first is the second generation, the "great conquest" of his majesty Eckhart I;

The second time, his majesty Brandon I, the sixth generation "sage", decided to go north and fight the evil gods and Demons going south in the blood skeleton valley;

Since then, even when the tenth generation of heroes gathered, the "Dragon Queen" and the "black Duke" crossed the Empire, there has never been such a scene.

In the hearts of the East saxorians, who were called "Dragon King family" by the royal family and controlled the empire with giant dragons, the fate of the Empire was linked with the giant dragons; Every time the dragons acted and looked strange, they were regarded as a sign of the fate of the empire by the superstitious "East Saxony countrymen".

The dragon of Jufeng mountain "poured out" again, which indicates that the Empire will usher in a turning point of fate again; As long as we can win, the Empire will once again have the glory of six generations!

"Really want to go?"

At the foot of the mountain, Brandon, standing on the protective wall of the floating city, leaned forward and looked at the black haired wizard with some disappointment: "can you stay a few more days - dreisis and my regiment have some time to go south, and there are few people under my hand who can fight."

"With you, at least I don't worry that these mobs will collapse as soon as they are washed away by the private soldiers of the rebellious aristocrats."

"Come on, I'll only give those imperial nobles more reasons to resist you." the black haired wizard shrugged and didn't take Brandon's words seriously:

"Let a Duke of Byrne command the rebellion in East Saxony... Unless you're really going to kill it."

"Besides, if I don't go back, who will give you the funds to prepare for the next rebellion?"

Hearing this, his Royal Highness's expression collapsed and looked at the camp below with a sad face.

Yes, if you don't wait for the end of the rebellion, you will have to be poor by these people!

In fact, there are signs now... Just relying on the materials brought out from eboden, I can barely hold on; When the food runs out, it's impossible not to kill.

"Well, it seems that that's the only way." Brandon, a helpless staller, pulled his mouth reluctantly: "you can go home, my wizard adviser."

"But don't be too comfortable... You'll be too busy to touch your feet at the beginning of spring tomorrow at the latest."

Their expressions were dignified at the same time.

"The Secretary of military affairs, my dear uncle Severin and Archduke Yuli vilz of El mans are now blocking the border of eboden - according to the habit of my royal brother, he is not fully confident that he will never fight the enemy, especially the lonely army who has no way back."

"The battle on the front line of lottel Shenlin fort is not suitable for large-scale legions. I am the same regardless of the enemy; the emperor brother will provide some assistance and logistics at most, and will not be stupid enough to go to the battlefield in person."

So this winter will be the last truce?

After a pause, Lauren probably understood Brandon's meaning.

Although Conrad's "all-out war mobilization" was almost a "total failure" under the intervention of the imperial aristocracy, it exposed not only the aristocracy, but also the problems of the Empire itself.

To put it simply, the time of peace has been too long, and there is no preparation for "comprehensive mobilization" from top to bottom.

The 11th, 12th and 13th generations after the "Dragon Queen" have never experienced the threat that would endanger the survival of the whole empire as before; Even if it is a demon invasion, Centaur invasion or dwarf Kingdom commotion... It is often only to mobilize the army of one or two principalities, and send at most three or five legions to solve the problem.

Therefore, in this "saklan riot", connord saw not only the lack of cooperation of the nobles, but also the lack of psychological preparation for full mobilization of the Empire. He didn't know what it was like to launch the war potential of the whole empire.

Such a grand occasion is by no means dependent on the order of the imperial capital; But the royal family and the principalities should cooperate with each other to reach a tacit understanding and make every effort to complete the grand event!

The current problem is that the Azores opposite may have completed such a comprehensive mobilization - otherwise they could not easily transport two armies with more than 100000 troops across the fog sea, and it seems that there are reinforcements later.

But the Empire hasn't.

Therefore, Connaught's plan is probably to take advantage of the closure of the port throughout the winter, on the one hand, blockade the invading enemy and strive for breathing time; On the one hand, the mobilization preparations were completed within the Empire, especially at the middle level, and when the spring came, we would cheer up and fight the enemy.

After all, as the defensive side, the Empire still has the advantage of geographical advantage. It can more easily assemble superior forces and annihilate the invading enemy separately.

As for the specific plan, Brandon's next plan can also be roughly seen.

Externally, it reached a tacit understanding with several principalities to rebuild the "Royal sword knights" to win the hearts of the people and protect the interests of the Dukes; Indulge Brandon internally, eliminate dissidents and consolidate East Saxony; He dealt with the upper class nobles and churches in the imperial capital to win their support.

Well, it's really full of wishful thinking.

"So are you really going to follow connord's idea?"

"Of course, it's good for me anyway. Why not?" Brandon shrugged his shoulders, took it for granted, and sighed with emotion: "after all, it's all for de sallion... And the Empire."

Looking at Brandon who "suddenly became honest", even if he had seen him once, Lauren still looked stunned.

No, such a mature and calm "disgraced Prince" who takes into account the overall situation is really against the peace!

Really... What on earth is he stimulated by?

"What's the matter with you? It's this expression again?" Brandon raised his eyebrows suspiciously. Then he brightened his eyes and raised his mouth in surprise: "is it difficult to be shocked by my mature, calm and overall performance?!"

"..." Loren Turin.

"Oh, don't be so embarrassed - I know, many times my growth and performance will exceed people's imagination. It's normal to be surprised, nothing special."

His highness beamed and said with an undisguised expression: "well, do you think I'm particularly reliable and confident now - is there a little, uh... Impulse to stay with me?"

"... goodbye."

The expressionless black haired wizard turned and walked to the floating city without looking back.

"Hey, hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait

The panicked Brandon immediately showed his original shape.

Loren, who stopped and didn't turn around, turned his head indifferently.

"OK..." the prince who scratched his head and looked at Laurent's expression immediately understood: "take care. By the way, remember to say hello to Charlotte for me and say... Er..."

"Forget it... I think don't say anything. Maybe she will like me a little."

The black haired wizard nodded in favor.

The sound of the floating city came and took off slowly.

On the Jufeng mountain in the distance, the roar of dragons sounded again.

The sound was like thunder.

…………………………

The road from east Saxony to the Principality of Bain is connected by Sifang Avenue.

Because Charlotte had not been informed about Jufeng mountain in advance - in fact, she didn't even remember to inform her after the battle of eboden - so "especially guilty" Loren didn't dare to delay at all. The whole team immediately "divided into three routes" after reaching the border.

Loren himself took more than a hundred remaining sky wing demon hunters, rode along the four directions at full speed, bypassed all the towns and fortresses, and went directly to the red blood castle;

The heavily armed Byrne knights, led by Eckert, Earl of the fort of wrath, spread the results of the battle of eboden and the news of "Duke Byrne's survival" all over Byrne;

Finally, all the wounded soldiers, wizards and eboden refugees who did not want to follow Brandon and came to Byrne were arranged in the floating city and arrived slowly behind, so as not to slow down the marching speed.

With the blessing of "light forward", Loren crossed the three earls in only two days, and arrived at the border of red blood castle in the afternoon of the third day.

Looking at the vast farmland, exquisite windmill gardens and lush vineyards on the vast field, the black haired wizard who was very worried was relieved at last.

I rushed back so desperately, and the trip to Jufeng mountain was a last resort emergency. All the explanations should be explained... Now, Charlotte will not be angry again... Right?

Looking at the red blood Castle standing like a knight halfway up the mountain, Loren's cheeks twitched instinctively.

At present, it is winter season. Even the red blood castle in the South can see the traces of cold wind attack - there are already large areas of golden yellow in the wheat field, and the dense forest in the wilderness is also mixed with light green of red and yellow, which is more gorgeous than that in midsummer.

But now it's winter. Is the road outside the city too busy?

On the road not far from the foot of the mountain, it has been crowded by farmers, tourists, caravans, carriages and pedestrians dressed in all kinds; Most people are heading for the red blood castle, but many businessmen set up stalls directly on the roadside and eagerly hawked.

Such a "temporary market" actually spread from the farthest tavern outside the castle to the town outside the wall of red blood castle. It lasted for several miles and was completely blocked.

When the surprised black haired wizard and Lucian arrived outside the castle, they saw ten times more lively than the streets outside the city - hundreds of colorful swallowtail flags were hung on the city wall as decorations; The town market is already crowded.

Every tavern is full, every hotel is full of people, and every carriage is blocked in the crowd... At first glance, it seems that all Byrne people have recorded this town!

"Holy Cross..." when he found that he could not walk, he looked at the "crowd" in front of him in a trance and muttered: "what kind of celebration is this? How does it seem more lively than the Midsummer Festival?"

"Midsummer Festival... How can this year's Midsummer Festival be compared with this?!" a businessman walking in front of them turned his head in surprise when he heard his words:

"This is a big event that caused a sensation in Byrne - the Earls of the thirteen leaders... Er, except the Earls of fury Castle who went with the Duke, they all came specially!"

"What's that for?" the grey pupil boy looked puzzled.

"Well... There are two things in total." seeing that Lucian was a stranger, the merchant immediately began to talk: "first of all, of course, it is to celebrate the Duke's victory in eboden and defeat the million army of Azores alone. This is a feat that the knight kings of all dynasties have not done, and even the emperor of the de Salion family can't match!"

"You see, they didn't invite the Duke to go to Jufeng mountain to talk and laugh with the dragons quickly - otherwise, what else can praise our Duke's great achievements?"

“……”

Twitching his throat, Lucian carefully glanced at the black haired wizard behind him: "so... What's the second thing?"

"The second, of course, is the wedding!" the merchant beamed and said, "can there be a bigger thing in the world than the wedding for us Baines?!"

"The Countess of red blood castle, uh... It should be said that the round table Council officially announced that an unprecedented grand wedding will be held at the banquet to celebrate the Duke's triumph, so as to add more style to this glorious day!"

"Wedding?" lucerne scratched his head. "Whose wedding?"

"Whose wedding, whose wedding - you didn't mean it?" the merchant stared, looked around and coughed:

"Although it hasn't been officially announced yet, my wife's brother, his second cousin, is a second-class cook in the red blood Castle palace. He was ordered to make a saxophone pigeon pie - you know, it's a delicacy that can only appear at the emperor's wedding in the sky palace, so the protagonist of this wedding..."

"Our Duke, of course!"
