"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived!!"
The guard's loud shout made the originally noisy meeting hall instantly quiet.
The civil servants and knights on both sides of the meeting hall quickly stood up.
Soon, Emperor Gozewen and Jacob walked in from the side door of the meeting hall.
Jacob entered the meeting hall and immediately saw Su Cheng standing at the front of the knights' queue.
Su Cheng also noticed that Jacob was looking at him at this time, so Su Cheng looked at Jacob with eyes full of smiles.
Looking at Su Cheng who was looking at him with a smile on his face, Jacob showed a wry smile and then shook his head gently.
At the same time, in a low voice that only he could hear, he said with a wry smile: "Mr. Cheng... you are really... I only planned to let you be a deputy commander with some military merit and qualifications, but I didn't expect you.
He actually 'robbed' the position of commander of the entire army, wiped out all 80,000 regular troops of the Carolingian Kingdom, and captured Allen alive... This is really..."
After saying that, Jacob smiled bitterly again and shook his head slightly.
The reason why Su Cheng was able to participate in the rescue battle of the Lund Kingdom as the deputy commander of the 10th Army this time was because Jacob was secretly assisting him.
As the deputy commander of the 10th Army, he participated in the rescue battle for the Kingdom of Lunde. Jacob had told Su Cheng about this before.
The main reason why Jacob arranged for Su Cheng to participate in the rescue battle of the Lund Kingdom as deputy commander was just to let Su Cheng gain some qualifications and come back. He did not expect Su Cheng to be able to participate in this battle.
What kind of military honors has China achieved?
Jacob only hoped that Su Cheng could return safely from this battle intact, and it would be best if he could get some military honors, but it didn't matter if he couldn't get it.
But I didn't expect that Su Cheng actually "snatched" the position of commander in this battle, and led the entire army to annihilate the 80,000-strong Carolingian army, annihilating the entire enemy army, and annihilating Ai.
Len Jones was brought back alive!
Three days ago, after Su Cheng returned with his army, Jacob was drinking black tea while reading the battle report.
Jacob looked at it and spit out the black tea in his mouth.
After squirting out all the black tea, Jacob had no intention of leisurely drinking the black tea while reading the report. He quickly read the battle report at a glance.
After reading it, Jacob's mood can be said to be very complicated.
Jacob's mood at that time, to use an analogy, is similar to: You gave your child 50 yuan and asked him to buy a small bag of rice. But when the child came back, he found that there were hundreds of trucks carrying rice behind him.
carriage, bought you millions of tons of rice, and gave you 5 million francs in return.
Jacob's mood was almost like this at that time.
Jacob never expected that Su Cheng could come back with such great achievements!
When you set out, you set out as the deputy commander, and when you came back, you came back as the commander-in-chief of the entire army.
The original strategic concept of the Britannia Empire was just to repel the Carolingian Kingdom's army, but they didn't expect that Su Cheng would directly wipe out all the enemy troops!
Not only that, but he also captured Alan Jones alive.
This is what shocked the senior leaders of the Britannia Empire the most!
Who is Alan Jones?
He is one of the most powerful generals of the Frankish Empire, the mortal enemy of the Britannia Empire! In the more than ten years since Allen was active, he has brought a lot of trouble and suffering to the Britannia Empire. Alan Jones' "Steel
The reputation of "bone" has already spread throughout Britannia.
But I didn't expect that this powerful and extremely difficult "Cyborg" would be defeated by a new Knight of Gui who had only been a knight for 2 months! He was even captured alive!
When Jacob was reading the battle report, he doubted whether the report was fake.
It was not until he went with Emperor Gozewen and many ministers to see the disgraced Allen who was imprisoned in the dungeon that he was convinced that the report was not wrong and that his own eyes were not wrong.
Su Cheng really defeated Allen with his own hands and captured him alive!
At this moment, looking at Su Cheng who was looking at him with a smile on his face, Jacob still felt a sense of unreality.
Jacob followed Gozevin and slowly walked to the throne.
After Ge Zewen sat on the throne, he said loudly:
"Today, all the civil servants and knights and I are gathered here to hold a 'Meeting of Merits and Rewards' to reward the heroes who have made great military achievements in the recent rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lunde.
.”
"You guys did really well."
Speaking of this, a faint smile appeared on Ge Zewen's face.
"After I received the battle report, I couldn't believe my eyes. I believed that with the abilities of our knights in Britannia, it would not be difficult to win this rescue battle in the Kingdom of Lund, but I didn't
To think that you could win so beautifully!"
"Originally I just hoped that you could repel the Carolingian Kingdom's thief army, but I didn't expect that you would directly wipe out the thief army, and also 4,000 armored holy cavalry sent by the Frank Empire to support you.
And annihilated, you even captured Allen Jones alive for me. To be honest, I was shocked when I read the report. I even wondered if Jacob was playing a prank on me again and changed the report.
, changed a fake report to tease me."
As soon as Ge Zewen's words came out, everyone in the conference hall was amused by Ge Zewen's humorous speech, and Su Cheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
Jacob, who was standing next to Gozevin, shrugged. His expression seemed to be saying to Gozevin: "Whatever you say~"
"In this battle, there are seven people who have achieved military merits that are enough to participate in this 'Merit and Reward Conference'. I will reward them one by one next."
Speaking of this, Ge Zewen changed his subject.
"It's just that before convening the merit-rewarding meeting, we first pay our respects to Nicholas Alva, the knight of the Four Imperial Guards who unfortunately died in this battle."
After saying that, Ge Zewen's face darkened.
At this time, Su Cheng also keenly noticed that the expressions of Alyssa and Isel standing beside him had become heavier.
A little tears flashed in Alyssa's eyes.
Looking at Alyssa who was shedding tears, Su Cheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart for some reason.
At this time, Ge Zewen continued:
"Nicholas Alva, aged 54, was the deputy head of the Gabriel Knights among the three major knights in Britannia. He was one of the only four knights in Britannia.
One, he is a very precious pillar of our Britannia."
"In his life, he fought in the north and south, made great achievements, and made great contributions to our Britannia. He is one of the generals that I, Gozevin Augustus, rely on most."
"But I didn't expect... that he would actually... die in this battle."
Gozewen's expression became even more serious.
"To tell the truth, after I learned that Nicholas died in the battle, I couldn't help but shed tears..."
"It's really hard for me to accept that the pillars of our empire died in battle..."
"Nearly all of Nicholas's life has been dedicated to our Britannia. In order to express my gratitude and respect to Nicholas, I have decided to posthumously designate Nicholas Alva as Viscount Cade!"
After saying that, Ge Zewen stood up.
"Not only that, the soldiers who died in the rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lund were also good like Nicholas! Without their sacrifice, we would not have been able to achieve such a glorious victory this time!"
"So, everyone," Gozevin continued in a deep voice, "let us now observe three minutes of silence for Nicholas and the soldiers who died in this war."
As soon as Ge Zewen finished speaking, he closed his eyes and lowered his head.
And Jacob, who was standing next to Gozevin, immediately closed his eyes and lowered his head like Gozevin.
After seeing Go Zewen and Jacob both observing a moment of silence, Su Cheng also quickly lowered his head, closed his eyes, and observed a moment of silence for the soldiers and Nicholas who died in the rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lund.
Because he closed his eyes and lowered his head, Su Cheng couldn't see what the others looked like now.
However, Su Cheng felt that others must also bow their heads in silence.
After three minutes of silence, Ge Zewen raised his head, opened his eyes, and said, "Okay, the silence is over."
After hearing Ge Zewen's words, Su Cheng raised his head and opened his eyes.
After opening his eyes, Su Cheng caught a glimpse of Alyssa beside him, quietly wiping away the tears from her eyes with her fingers.
After seeing everyone raise their heads, Ge Zewen sat back on the throne.
Chapter completed!
