When receiving a request for help from Vosgrad Fortress, Plagg had no idea what was going on.
The commander in charge of Prague's army was General Pavlov, who was appointed by Empress Katalin. This general had outstanding achievements. He joined the army soon after the Red Tsar Boris Bokha came to the throne, and basically participated in all the Red Tsar's campaigns along the way.
war, and later he was hired by the empire to enter the empire to help the Oster Territory cleanse the beastmen in the Shadow Forest. It can be said that he has made great achievements in battle.
And unlike the generals who were purged by Katalin after she came to the throne, General Pavlov was an obedient general who followed the rules and was appreciated by Katalin. Therefore, after the Winter War, Pavlov's status did not drop.
He was promoted instead and was appointed as the defense coach of Prager and General Kislev.
After receiving Vosgrad's request for help, General Pavlov hurriedly summoned Boyer, the general and the nobles of Prague held a meeting. Since he only received a verbal request for help, and the messenger was under attack
The messenger left as soon as possible, so the messenger himself was not sure how many barbarians came and how elite they were. What he could tell General Pavlov was that the Vosgrad Fortress was attacked by an army with a large number of artillery.
Many Chaos armies under Nurgle's banner surrounded them, calling for reinforcements.
General Pavlov looked confused. Didn't the general think that the intelligence said that the barbarians were going to fight the dark elves? Why did he suddenly go south and surround the Vosgrad Fortress?
Naturally, the messenger was not mistaken. The general also knew that the northern barbarians had no logic or credibility. However, at this time, the State Duma representative sent by the Tsarina reminded General Pavlov that Kislev's Millennium Celebration was taking place.
The whole country is preparing for this major celebration. It is obviously very inappropriate to bother our great Her Majesty Katalin with this news at this time. As the commander and general of Prague City Defense appointed by Her Majesty Katalin,
You should try to solve the problem yourself.
General Pavlov seemed very hesitant after hearing what the Duma representative said. He also knew that Her Majesty Katalin attached great importance to this millennium celebration. However, as a soldier, General Pavlov felt that this matter might not be what it seemed on the surface.
It seemed so simple, so he sent two waves of scouts to Vosgrad Fortress to investigate the situation, while he sat and waited in Prague.
As a result, after waiting for twenty-four hours, the scouts did not come back.
What no one knew was that with such a delay, Kislev had already wasted the precious time that the Vosgrad defenders had bought with their lives.
After twenty-four hours of no response, Prager realized that something was strange.
General Pavlov made the second order that was later considered to be absolutely stupid and wrong. He did not report the matter to the Kislev court before making a decision. Instead, he chose to follow the rules and choose from the Prague standing army.
Five thousand people were mobilized from the nearby Ugor tribe and the Kislev garrison, carrying a large number of firearms to support the Vosgrad garrison.
In fact, this 5,000-strong reinforcement army was ambushed by the Chaos army during the rapid march to Vosgrad Fortress. Many soldiers were exhausted from the rapid march and were killed by Nurgle before they had time to put on their armor.
The divinely chosen champion, Festus, was all annihilated.
After some time passed and there was no news of the reinforcements, Prager realized that the situation seemed to be different from what they expected.
At the same time, it was 2514 AD in the Imperial Calendar, 999 in the Kislev Calendar, October, the Old World, Britannia.
Just when Prager's reinforcements were wiped out in the coniferous forest near Vosgrad Fortress, Knight King Lion was on vacation in Angron's manor. Of course, the king was not idle at the same time. He just put his
The office moved to a single-family house with a garden here in Angerang.
Ryan did not have a God's perspective, nor did he have a full map view. He knew nothing about the situation in Kislev thousands of kilometers away. The Knight King rode Grape around the Angron Manor several times in the afternoon, and
Angron had a sparring session, and was beaten by Angron.
With a bruised face, nosebleeds, and bruises all over his body, Lion also left a footprint on Angron's forehead, cracked his arm armor and shoulder armor, and cut the lining of Angron's armor into pieces.
The linen shirt and cloak were charred black.
What makes the King of Knights a little pained is that his son, watching himself being beaten by Angron until his nose bleeds, actually clapped his hands and shouted, Uncle Angron, come on!
Being a father was really unhappy, so after the spanking, Ryan found an excuse to spank little Devon Hill, and then asked Olika to deliberately add a lot of green peppers to the dinner that little Devon Hill didn't like.
, making little Devin Hill scream so hot.
Lidya Su laughed so hard at this scene that the Queen found it very interesting that Ryan occasionally had such a childish side. Lidya Su finally privately told Devon Hill not to do this in the future, as it would hurt his father.
Glass heart, whether it is Uncle Angron, Uncle Fulgrim, or your father, they are all your elders and should be treated equally. You have made your father sad, go and apologize to him.
The sturdy little Devon Hill quickly apologized to Ryan, and the King of Knights immediately generously forgave his son's mistake, and then made his favorite finger-sucking original chicken. This dish was also commissioned by Fulgrim's Ash Legion's general political prophet.
Invented, now thanks to the prophet, it has become famous throughout the old world
, he gave up his previous name and changed his name to Harlan Sanders. While serving as the general political commissar of the Ashes, the 56-year-old Mrs. Keesler invented the finger-sucking original chicken, and in Brittany
Several branches have been opened in Nia, Empire, Estalia and even Sartusa.
"He changed the world with fried chicken."

"How is the progress on Sanguinius?" After dinner, under the autumn starry sky, in the open-air courtyard of Angron Manor, Angron asked one of the few topics that interested him.
"The soul of Sanguinius and the Phoenix Mantra Scroll have been sent to the Southern Star Pyramid of Hethiota in the Isthmus of Lustria. The Demon Toad Lord Mazda Moody will use the power of the Ancient Saint to
Help Sanguinius expel the curse that plagues him." Ryan frowned: "Brother Fulgrim said,
This process takes enough time, probably at least four seasons as a healing cycle, and by the time a cycle is over, the leaked power will definitely attract very powerful enemies, maybe Chaos, maybe Ratmen, maybe
They are dark elves or even high elves who want to know the secret."
"Definitely, someone will come and try to seize the soul of Sanguinius. I remember that on the eve of the siege of Terra, Karn found me and conveyed the will of Khorne to me. Khorne needs an angel, if necessary.
, you can do whatever it takes, and if necessary, you can abandon anyone." Angron murmured.
"So Khorne got the Red Angel." Lion scoffed.
"Hey, I'm not the angel that Khorne wants." Angron shook his head, and the World Eater Primarch held a grass seed in his mouth: "I'm fine now, this way, that's fine, farm, family
, Leisurely, I will never do anything for my father again. That Angron has already died in Nukelia and Armageddon. Ryan, let me tell you, if one day you also have this idea,
I will support you, even if..."
"Brother, you have been through too much, take a good rest." Sulia recalled the recent history that Ryan told him. Because Ryan was busy some time ago, he only recently told Sulia that Angron had completely
Become a brainless person and a deep ice, facing myself all day long
His own heirs played the law of killing eleven, and the emperor sent Russ and Angron to duel. Angron won the duel but lost the battle. Wolf King Russ won the battle but lost the duel. Everyone felt that they had won the final victory.
They retreated, but the problem was not solved at all.
After chatting for a while, Angron indicated that he should go and see how his pig pen was doing. Recently, a pig in the pig pen mutated and grew two heads. Angron planned to check what was going on.
According to the Emperor's Imperial Guard, it seems to be an ordinary mutation.
The two-headed pig was confiscated and taken away by the Custodes, and prayers and blessings were performed in the name of the Emperor. There was no sign of corruption.
Then they were slaughtered, skinned, and furred, and became a midnight snack for many people.
Little Devon Hill also said that he wanted to go and see it. Only Ryan, Sulia and Orica who were standing behind Ryan were left in the open-air courtyard.
"Ryan, whose turn is it tonight? I remember it's Orica's turn, right?" Sulia picked up the red wine glass and said casually.
"Well, yes." Ryan's expression remained unchanged. Recently, the schedule has been a bit messy. Generally speaking, it is divided into the Fairy of the Lake, Sulia, Olica and Theresa. Among them, the Fairy of the Lake always only appears with Sulia.
, and the goddess seems to be busy planning something recently and rarely shows up, so the time is quite confusing.
As for Morgiana being busy with the autumn harvest recently, the church tithe is the most important income of the Fairy of the Lake Church. As far as Ryan knows, due to the bumper harvest this year, the church tithe has changed from ten to fifteen.
The tax is 1, but the income does not decrease but increases.
"Then I'll go see Catherine." Lidya Su nodded.
Recently, Catherine and her child Dureny also moved into Angron Manor. At that time, Veronica's female apprentice could be said to be extremely proud. She held her child in her arms all day long to show off to everyone, which also made her
Countless witches envied her good luck.
For spell casters, pregnancy is a very, very difficult thing. Due to too many magical elements in the body, spell casters rarely have children, and even if they want to, it is difficult. For example, Veronica and Theresa are both with Ryan.
We have been together for a long time and there is no movement at all.
But the Holy Grail Knights do have an advantage in this regard. As knights blessed and strengthened by the goddess, their tadpoles are more energetic and have a certain degree of magic resistance than ordinary people.
The fact that little Devonshire's godfather Calard wanted Catherine to be his countess gave Ryan a headache, because almost all the nobles opposed it. Fortunately, due to Ryan's great prestige, everyone's opposition was not so firm, and most of them were not so determined.
The big nobles, especially Calard's superior, Duke Birhemond, mean that there is no need to be so serious about being a countess. Wouldn't it be nice to have a chief female courtier? If that doesn't work, you can designate Dureny as your first choice.
The heir should find a Holy Grail Knight as his godson.
After the meal, Ryan took the time to make out with his wife. The two sneaked to the master bedroom on the second floor and spent more than an hour doing some happy things. Then Lidya Su was so tired that she took a shower and went to bed early.
, it was Ryan's turn to sit in the study and continue working.
In the simple and quiet study room, Ryan sat behind the large desk, enjoying Olica's massage while looking down at the kingdom's various documents and everyone's reports.
Calard has assembled more than 8,000 troops in Curona, mainly responsible for the northern coast of Curona to Le-Angoulan. Most of the troops are still on standby on the outskirts of Curona as mobile troops.
support.
After looking at the incoming intelligence, there has been no news from the barbarians. Ryan wondered if he was a little too cautious and making a fuss. The war between the northern barbarians and the dark elves has been verified to have indeed happened. Various sources have shown that
in this way.
However, this can be regarded as a means of centralizing power and a way to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army. Ryan smiled when he thought of this, and did not pay too much attention to it, and put Kalad's report aside.
After reading a few more rolls of parchment and making comments on them with a quill, the door to the study room opened, and a gust of fragrant breeze came in from the outside.
The director of MI7, the Holy Witch Aurora, walked in from the door wearing a layered crystal blue and white turmeric pleated skirt. Her long black shimmering hair like a waterfall was tied up with a simple diamond hairstyle.
The clip is tucked behind the head, and the sparkling earrings are hung with bright pearl earrings. Under the long skirt, the delicate fleshy jade feet are stepping on the slingback black pointed-toe high-heeled shoes.
A beautiful S-shaped curve appeared in front of Ryan. Her long and straight calves, wrapped in flesh-colored stockings and illuminated by the dim lights in the room, looked even smoother and smoother. The Holy Witch also obviously put on light makeup, and her slender crescent eyes and
The silver eyes are exactly the same as Teresa's, the only difference is that the Holy Witch has a more mature and glamorous aura.
"Ms. Aurora, what's the matter?" Ryan looked up from behind the pile of documents.
Aurora has been doing well recently. Since Ryan came back, she has naturally become a lot tougher. The voices of the court and knight nobles facing Ryan have also become louder. All this comes from Ryan's authority. This is the Holy Witch.
With a deeper understanding, she and Theresa would definitely not be able to survive without Ryan's protection. The operation of MI7 has offended many people.
But since Olika came back, Aurora found that she began to suffer from memory loss again, especially after Olika called her into the maid's room yesterday afternoon and she couldn't remember what happened at all.
Finding Orica standing behind Ryan, Aurora unnaturally avoided Orika's gaze: "Lian, there is the latest news coming from the north."
"What news?" Ryan asked casually.
"According to our intelligence from MI7 in Erengrad, it seems that the Norscan barbarians are besieging the Norscan dwarves' Dulong City." Aurora handed over a thin piece of intelligence: "The dwarves of Dulong City
Warn Kislev that a large number of barbarians are gathering in the north, but
According to our sources, the barbarians seemed to have lost two thousand people after besieging Dulong City for a full week. In addition to breaking through a line of defense and causing thirty casualties to the Norscan dwarves, the barbarians seemed to have given up and continued.
Attack, just maintain the siege."
"That's it." Ryan was quite serious at first, but relaxed after hearing the news later.
The large-scale gathering of barbarians and the fact that the barbarians are about to face the decisive battle with the dark elves, and the attack on Dulong City not only produced no gains but also suffered a lot of losses during the siege for a whole week. Ryan believes that this shows that the scale of the barbarians is not large, and the knights
Wang is not sure about the defense system of Dulong City.
But he knew that the dwarves in Dulong City lacked firearm technology. High King Thorgren told him that the small number of muskets and artillery in Dulong City were given to the Norscan dwarves by the dwarves after the Great Holy War.
The Kadwarves themselves can only produce the most basic dwarven muskets and ordinary cannons.
There are no iron dragon hand cannons, organ cannons, flame cannons and dwarf rotor bombers to assist in defending the city. According to the inference of the Bafeng Mountain Fortress, Dulong City's defense line is about the same.
"It seems that the barbarians are just a small-scale attack." Ryan said casually: "You don't need to pay special attention to it, but the information on Erengrad's side must still be kept open, and any news must be reported to me as soon as possible."
"But the cost of using magic to send messages from Erengrad is very high." Aurora complained.
"I will give you a special fund." Ryan knew what Aurora was planning, and the King of Knights said with a half-smile: "Do you have any new research?"
"The book you brought back contains a great spell about summoning the supreme ice elemental lord..." Aurora put her hands on her hips confidently: "In order to master this spell, Theresa and I need more research funds."
"Well, I will allocate another amount of money to you to save some money. Also, there must be certain results before the end of the year. I need you to provide two complete sets of ice magic scrolls." Ryan agreed,
The caster is such a big spender of money, there is no way around it, Aurora is not spending money randomly, she will make a large number of potions and magic scrolls to repay Ryan's investment.
It just means that in this process, someone like Ryan must invest a large amount of money to maintain turnover.
"By the way, Ryan, are you really planning to... let Catherine's little Bichi... I mean, let Veronica's little apprentice become the Countess of Calard?" Aurora then asked another question.
Things you care about.
"If possible, why not?" Ryan smiled.
Aurora suddenly felt like there was a fire in her heart rushing to her head!
Damn it! Even that little bitch Catherine could have given birth to a child, who might become a countess!
But Teresa and I...
No, I have to talk to Theresa about this again. Aurora looked at Ryan's handsome appearance and extremely majestic heroic aura, and made a decision in her heart. For the future of her and Theresa, she couldn't continue like this.
.
We should also start preparing for alternative plans.
