It was also morning, when the first ray of morning light hit the palace of the Fort Dawn in the capital Olisga, the temple was already full of people. Everyone who could enter this hall was a big man. On the majestic throne, the newly succeeded empire's new lord Julian. After experiencing various events, the former second prince had a little less childishness, more perseverance and majesty as a superior. However, his figure was still a little thinner, and he was not as close as the previous emperor Tanglio combined the majesty and domineering of the king. Obviously, the new empire needs more training.

On the left side of the throne, there was an old man in armor. He was holding a red feathered and golden beast helmet in his hand, with his hair white and wrinkles on his face like a tree bark, but no one in the palace dared to underestimate this old man because he was the Imperial Marshal Rodek. There was a shadow principality invasion in front, and there were two princes fighting north and south. In the two wars before and after, Rodek was also very troubled. He was a few years older, and the most obvious thing was his frosty hair, which was already shiny.

The far opposite to Rodek is the former Prime Minister Nebette who stood on the right side of the throne. This old man who experienced the turmoil of the capital and once lost his position as prime minister has now returned to the throne of prime minister. Nebette's complexion looks much better than Rodek. His face is rosy, full of energy, and his complexion is three points better than before. Even people look much younger. Indeed, as the help of the late emperor and the teacher of the new emperor, he has also experienced that most turbulent period. Now in the court and the country, Nebette is the person most trusted by Julian, and is naturally the well-deserved celebrity of the empire at this time.

Below the Marshal and Prime Minister, there are the commanders of various legions and important officials in the court. For example, the leader of the Dragon Army, Woodrick, who fought with Julian for thousands of miles, is now in a high reputation and is only behind Rodek. As for the commander of the Bear Arm, who was repeatedly recruiting Julian, who could not see him at all. Anyone with discerning eyes knows that although Arkham is still at Mother Or as his legion commander, Julian only mentions the last thing he refuses that day. But in the heart of this new emperor, Arkham is already a person who needs to be replaced at any time. But he has great prestige in the Bear Arm and cannot easily touch him. But sooner or later, it is a foregone conclusion that he will kick out the Bear Arm.

The atmosphere under the hall was depressed, and the ministers even breathed three times. Julian swept over the people below and said in a slightly low voice: "I believe everyone already knows that just last night, many port cities along the coast of our country were suddenly attacked, and seven cities fell overnight. Now three or four cities, including Ark Port, are still struggling to persist. As for the specific situation, Marshal Rodek added."

Rodek coughed lightly and stepped forward and said, "According to the information we have obtained, the invasion of our country this time was an enemy from the east. Many people should be familiar with the name Panlong Empire. Yes, it is the overlord on the land located on the east side of the ocean. The history of Panlong Empire is even longer than that of us. It is a powerful country with a deep foundation. Whether the number of troops or strong people is more than that of our country. I believe that the only one who attacks Zhucheng is their vanguard, and their main force should still be on the sea. It is worth mentioning that before their invasion, our navy had no information to feedback at all. After the invasion, my navy and I had lost contact. In this way, our navy fleet may have been wiped out!"

When Rodek heard this news, except for a few people, the rest of them were all terrified. Although the Imperial Navy was not very powerful, it had a structure of about tens of thousands. And the navy stationed on the islands on the Santa Terina Sea for many years had at least ten thousand people, and so many people had not even heard of the news. So as long as you have a little brain, you can roughly estimate how many people there will be on the enemy's main force.

"In addition to being a traffic hub for north-south, port cities are also an important gateway to the inland. Now, seven harbor cities have fallen into the enemy. If there is no accident, the enemy will use these cities as springboards and begin to spread to our inland. If it is impossible to stop it in time and regain the captive city, it will not take long to see the battle flags depicting the Tenglong pattern in Oris."

"We also have business dealings with the Panlong Empire. Marshal Rodek, do you see if there is any possibility of negotiation?" asked a minister.

Rodeck said expressionlessly: "Of course there are possibilities for negotiation, but that must be done after we show a situation of equal strength. Given the disproportionate loss and profit, the enemy will sit at the negotiating table. Now that the other party is coming in full force, I don't think there will be a possibility of negotiation in a short time."

"The lions will not negotiate with the rabbit, and the other side of the sea is a dragon from the east. If we can't even talk about the lion, do you think the dragon will negotiate with us?" Nebbert also said: "So it is urgent. You should put aside those unrealistic ideas. What we need to do next is to strike head-on. We must tell the invaders that we are not rabbits, but tigers, lions, and even dragons that are comparable to them!"

Rodek looked at this old opponent who had always had disagreements and said, "It is rare that this time I have the same opinion as my Prime Minister. If the Prime Minister is right, we must not only fight, but also be tough enough. Only in this way can the enemy consider sitting down and talking, rather than fighting each other. Of course, the final decision depends on Your Majesty."

At this moment, everyone turned their attention to the young emperor on the throne.

Julian stood up and said, "After experiencing so many disasters, as the lord of a country, I should have given the people a peaceful era of rest and recuperation. But now the enemy from the East has ignited the war. If you give in at this time, it may bring greater disaster to the people. So here, I agree with the opinions of the Marshal and the Prime Minister. Here I announce that our Bailegang Empire will fight back with all our might. Don't forget that our ancestors established this empire in suffering and flames. Don't forget that our blood is filled with the longing for freedom. I will die, and my blood is still hot!"

The palace was quiet, and everyone roared: "My blood is still hot!"

This sentence is a roar from the old emperor when facing a desperate situation. For many years, the soldiers of the empire have been determined to move forward so that they can create a country pattern under the threat of the shadow principality. Now Julian inspires everyone with it, and now everyone's blood is thriving, and they all want to rush to the battlefield immediately with red eyes.

This is certainly impossible.

Next, Rodek announced the detailed content of the counterattack plan, including the decision to transfer the Bear Armour Army stationed in Mothor to the nearby city of Tiger Shark Port. Tiger Shark Port has fallen, and there are many enemies there, so it is indeed necessary to have elite troops like the Bear Armour Army to fight. Moreover, in the previous princes' battle, the Bear Armour Army was injured at all, so no matter from any perspective, there was nothing wrong with sending the Bear Armour to Tiger Shark Port. However, everyone in the hall could vaguely feel that it was a sign that Julian took Arkham's surgery.

The entire counterattack plan will be operated at the same time, with hundreds of thousands of troops required to be mobilized, and the combat scope covers the entire coastline of the empire.

Wars like this that started on the northern and southern fronts at the same time rarely appeared in previous history, but in the past two years, the Bailegang Empire had the third such large-scale war. After this battle, regardless of the victory or defeat, it was an indisputable fact that the empire's vitality was severely damaged. It was just that the crisis was right in front of us, and the empire could not fight in this battle.

Just as the empire was mobilizing north and south, a team of people were walking in a woods leading to Bauhinia Ridge. This team was Father Miro and others who had evacuated from the Ark Harbor last night. They ran all night. At this time, the energetic Crusaders were also tired, so the team did not walk fast, and stopped to rest when they found a wide woodland.

Miro and Vera also got out of the carriage. The priest stretched and murmured: "It's been a long time since the war was over, and this fight started again, so it won't make people live a good life."

A knight brought water and bread and laughed at him, "Don't complain, Father. I think this must be a test given by God, and I believe everyone will survive it."

For this knight with a firm belief, Miro smacked his lips and finally swallowed the attacks back into his stomach. He took the food, walked to an old tree, and sat on the thick roots to eat bread.

Vera floated over like a black cloud and sat next to the priest. Miro took a sip of water, swallowed the bread and asked, "I said, can you see the result of this war?"

Vera tear off a small piece of bread with her hand and threw it into her mouth, whispering: "I often can't see clearly the future that involves too many people. Even if I can see it, it's probably just a kind of many possibilities in the future. We are all just human beings. After being a genius for a long time, I think we are really a god."

A charlatan choked and said with a frown: "Don't I hope everyone can live a good life."

Just as Vera was about to say something, the girl's eyes suddenly became empty and vast. Miro immediately jumped up: "What's wrong, what did you see?"

"Someone is coming towards us, and there are still quite a few people. I saw armor I had never seen before. Well, this is the symbol of the dragon." Vera's eyes brightened: "It's an enemy from the East!"

Hearing Vera's words, a Cavalier captain who was in charge of the team immediately shouted: "Put the sword and be on guard!"

As the words came to an end, the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air sounded in the forest. A crusad infantry was still holding bread in his hand, and a feather arrow was nailed into his neck. While the tail was still shaking, the bread in the soldier's hand fell to the ground, and the blood dripping from his body stained the bread red.

Then one by one, warriors wearing dark red soft armor and half of their masks turned over and jumped out from the tree canopy, either catching a bow or raising a sword to greet them. Whether it was archers or swordsmen, there was a pattern of a dragon on their chests!
