The biggest contributor to the Battle of Meiding City?
As soon as Kameni's voice reached his ears, he was drowned out by the thunderous cheers in the square.《》
Haisen stared blankly at the backs of Kameni and Roy in front of him. A thought, like a banshee's song, tempted him and made his heart beat faster and faster.
Could it be, that young magician?
Is it Roy?!
The troops entering the city led by the Grand Duke passed through the boiling crowds on the Avenue of Glory, entered the square, bypassed the fountain in the center of the circular square and the bronze sculpture of Grand Duke Solan riding a horse and wielding a sword, and stopped in front of the celebration platform in the square.
The celebration platform is located on the second floor terrace of a gray building. On the left and right sides, there is a curved stone staircase. This is Lulian's government affairs building. Over the years, whether it is to send generals to war, issue political proclamations or hold large-scale ceremonies, this place
They are all the best choices.
At this moment, the building and all the buildings next to it have been hung with huge majestic flags and Lulian military flags. Looking at it, it looks like giants wearing ribbons, surrounding the circular square. The stone railings of the terrace are also covered with small
Flags and flowers were placed. A red carpet was spread on the steps. Fully armed Munich Guard soldiers stood in formation.
Archduke Adolf and Sophia dismounted. Under the escort of Kahn, Fano and other Lullian generals and thirty Munich knights, they led the members of the 121th team of the ragtag army onto the celebration stage.
When the procession into the city arrived at the square, there were guests from provincial principalities across the empire, Archbishop Wallace of Lulian, the royal envoy Count Cazes, ministers of the principality, and Lulian including Grand Duchess Adolf and three other children.
The members of the Duke's family had already walked out of the lounge of the Government Building and were waiting in front of the terrace.
When Archduke Adolf, who had been on an expedition for more than a year, shook hands with everyone one by one and hugged his wife, the atmosphere in the entire city of Munich reached its peak. At this moment, no matter whether they were nobles or civilians, whether they were gray-haired old people or
The young and budding girls were all shouting, jumping, screaming, clapping and whistling.
Ever since the Feili people invaded Lulian a year and a half ago, the entire empire has been in dire straits. Everyone's lives have been shrouded in the clouds of war, and they are in constant fear all day long.
At that time, the news they heard every day was that they were defeated, defeated, and defeated again. The unsuspecting Imperial Army had almost no resistance under the impact of Fei Lie's cavalry. Whether it was the northwest Dupulu war zone,
Whether it is the Longmen War Zone in the west or the southern coast of Lulian Province, the war situation is a scene of corruption.
Originally, in the minds of all people in the empire, including the Lurians, the situation in the province of Lulian was the most serious. After all, Lulian was far in the south of the empire, and its military strength ranked last among the many provinces and principalities in the empire. Moreover,
, after the southern coastal ports fell, there was no force that could stop ship after ship of Philip soldiers from landing.
The Feili people can choose the most suitable landing place along Lulian's long coastline. However, Lulian's stretched defense force is simply impossible to defend.
But no one expected that with the return of the Bavarian Knights led by Miss Sophia and the march south of the Red Leaf Knights, the Lulian Army under the Archduke would actually be able to fight with the Feili people. Although the Fei Lie people have been heading north
However, the Lulian army, which was retreating steadily, did not show signs of defeat.
They still maintained their courage and unity, and maintained pressure on the Feili people. After several battles over the past year, the Fei people have understood that conquering Lulian is not as simple as they imagined.
What the Phillies didn't expect was that just as they had captured the province of Prussia, which had a much stronger military force than Lullian, they rushed into the city of Belin of Archduke Philip, and even broke through the city that had been occupied for decades.
When they were prevented from crossing the Dragon Gate Defense Line in the Warcraft Mountains, they concentrated their forces and carefully prepared a fatal blow, but suffered the biggest defeat since their launch at the foot of Meiding City in the south.
As a result, a total of 12,000 Philipian soldiers were killed or captured, which not only disrupted the strategic deployment of the Philipian army, but also triggered a collective shock in the country from Peter I onwards. Dozens of officers and generals were held accountable.
The three-pronged offensive situation was also forced to be suspended.《》
In this battle, the Lulians not only won the biggest victory for the St. Solan Empire since the war began, but also won precious breathing time for the St. Solan Empire, and told all the St. Solan people with the facts.
Not invincible!
In the words of the famous imperial general Safin, the victory of Medin City reined in the reins of the imperial carriage rushing towards the cliff! Its impact on the war situation, its impact on the political situation and the encouragement of people's morale are of great significance.
Unparalleled!
This makes all Lulians proud!
Although the war is not over yet, and they may face more cruel and severe tests in the future, but that is all in the future. At least today, they can stand here, celebrate their victory, and pay tribute to Archduke Adolf and Archduke Adolf, who have been fighting for more than a year.
The lady's hug suddenly burst into cheers. This is a festival that belongs to all Lulians!
After gently kissing the woman's face that was already full of tears, Archduke Adolf took a deep breath and turned to the crowd in the square.
Looking down from where he was, the entire square and the surrounding streets were filled with densely packed people. Even the windows, roofs, and tall trees of the houses around the square were already crowded with people. There were several people.
A naughty and mischievous boy, he even climbed onto the gallows and sat dangling his feet on the beam of the gallows hung with ropes and chains.
Archduke Adolf's eyes returned from a distance and fell on a group of young people in the audience. Among these young people divided into areas according to uniforms, he easily found the black-haired boy.
"Sean." Archduke Adolf smiled and turned to Sean and others beside him: "Look at who the black-haired boy is 40 meters in front of you."
Sean and others looked in confusion in the direction the Grand Duke said. After a moment, the sharp-eyed archer Daxia was the first to spot the target in the crowd: "Roy, it's Roy!"
"Where is it?" Everyone in the team got excited and looked around. Soon, under the guidance of Da Xia, they saw the young man who was watching them with a smile.
"Recognize it?" the Grand Duke smiled.
"I recognize him even when he turns to ashes." Sean laughed and scolded: "This damn deserter."
"Do you want me to catch him?" The gray dog was eager to try, with a face that was pretending to be ferocious, full of unconcealable joy.
It seems that as long as Adolf gives an order, he will jump off the stage directly, find this guy hiding in the crowd, and expose him in front of everyone.
In the audience, the students of the First Training Camp were confused and excited. They couldn't hear the words of Archduke Adolf and others, and they didn't understand why the Archduke and the heroes around him were all looking to this side. However, that's not the case now.
When they were worrying about this, many nobles held their chests high and stood straight, trying to leave a good impression in the eyes of the Grand Duke.
Only a few people including Kameni, Nicole, Luke, and Julie knew the secret. Kameni was expressionless; Julie and others secretly looked at Roy; and Roy's face looked a little unnatural.
.
"Forget it, let's respect his wishes." Archduke Adolf shook his head, smiled at Roy, and then raised his hands to the crowd.
Although they were too far away to hear what Archduke Adolf and the heroes of Team 121 were saying, everyone was paying attention to their every move. When Adolf raised his arms, everyone held their breath and the sound echoed through the sky.
The cheers gradually subsided, and the streets from the square to the surrounding streets gradually became silent.
"We all know that this war is far from over."
This was the opening speech of Archduke Adolf. Dressed in military uniform, he stood on a high celebration platform, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
"Just sixty kilometers south of Meiding City, Fei Lie's army is still stationed. They are increasing their troops and are preparing to launch a new round of attack on us. But before this, they have already done so."
》They occupied a total of more than a hundred small and large towns in southern Lulian. More than 200,000 people died in the war, and millions of people were displaced and homeless."
A circular amplification magic array shone at the feet of Archduke Adolf. His voice spread in all directions through the echo magic array engraved on the surrounding buildings. Every street in Munich, every section of the city wall, and even the fields outside the city
, can hear his voice.
The people gathered in the square and surrounding streets and buildings were like a forest in a windless world, quietly watching Archduke Adolf on the celebration stage. People in other places also stopped what they were doing.
The blacksmith stopped his hammer, the farmer put down his hoe, and the woman put down the dishes in the sink, wiped her hands on her apron, and opened the kitchen window.
"Stop." A nobleman stamped his feet in the carriage, opened the door and stepped out of the carriage. When his shiny leather shoes stepped on the stone floor of the street, other carriages passing by on the street also stopped one after another.
.Gentlemen and ladies got out of the car one after another, looked at each other, raised their heads and listened to the sounds in the sky.
Pedestrians on the street stopped; customers and vendors who were haggling stopped talking at the same time; people in the shops walked out of the shops; refugees in the shacks looked at the fragmented sky between pieces of tattered tarpaulins. Even
Several children who were chasing and fighting also stopped and looked at the adults around them blankly.
"It's the voice of Archduke Adolf." The soldiers stopped training and stood on the barracks playground covered in sweat. The knights reined in the reins and patted the necks of the panting horses. The officers ended the debate in the war room.
, walked out of the barracks in twos and threes, looking towards the center of the city.
At this moment, the entire city of Munich seemed to be frozen in time and space.
"This is a nightmare." Archduke Adolf's voice echoed over the city of Munich. "This is a nightmare that makes me miserable every time I wake up."
"Starting from Bolabel, they burned, killed and looted. Their iron hooves trampled through the farmland we cultivated hard, and their torches set fire to the houses where our ancestors had lived for generations. They killed our wives and our children, plundered our wealth, and destroyed us.
They rush to the dock like animals to carry goods for their warships full of soldiers, repair roads, and prepare for their further invasion!"
"For more than a year, I traveled all over the south. Everywhere I went, there was always a scene that pierced my heart like a knife. I couldn't believe that after those places were burned, there was only a charred ruin.
Even the rich southern city of Lulian. I can’t believe that those farmland covered with weeds and those lifeless villages that exude stench are the beautiful places I have traveled to countless times.”
The Grand Duke's voice was choked with sobs.
Among the five major principalities of the empire, Lulian is the smallest. Its land area and population are even less than that of a larger province directly under the royal family.
However, the Principality of Lullian is the most fertile of the four major provinces in the south of the empire. With sea routes extending in all directions, rich fishery resources, natural harbors along the coast, and rich magical beasts and mineral resources adjacent to the Magical Beast Mountains, the people here
The economy has always been within the top three of the four major provinces of the five major principalities of the empire.
The Lullian family has ruled this province for more than a hundred years. In the government building behind Adolf, there are portraits of the family's successive grand dukes, and the admonitions they left are also engraved on them.
Among the top nobles in the empire, the Lulian family is not the most powerful, but it is definitely the most kind to the people under its rule. Generations of Grand Dukes Lulian have left a good and respected reputation in this land.
They are frugal, diligent, and self-denying. They possess the virtues of a true nobleman.
They spent hundreds of years of hard work to create a prosperous and stable Lulian. But half of it was destroyed in just one and a half years!
Seeing that the inheritance left by his ancestors was destroyed in his own hands, and seeing countless subjects fall under the sword of the Phillies, Adolf's heart was bleeding.
These words have been held in his heart for a long time. He has never said them to anyone. Only at this moment, standing on the celebration stage and looking at the thousands of Lulians gathered in front of him, did he realize for the first time
Confess your feelings.
Every word Adolf said resonated with the people. Especially those refugees and down-and-out nobles from the southern coast, their eyes had already filled with tears.
They understand better than the local residents of Munich what happened in the south. They understand more clearly what a cruel scene it is when corpses are everywhere and blood flows into rivers. That is what they have seen with their own eyes and their personal experience. Some of them
Some people lost their fathers, some lost their children, and some even crawled out of the pile of dead bodies.
Every day, they can dream of the overwhelming warrior cavalry rushing into the city, charging into the crowd, waving their swords, splashing with blood. Every day they can hear the sound of horse hooves, and the swords cutting into the flesh.
The sound of splitting, the cracking of houses ignited by the fire, and the screams and cries of people.
Dressed in rags and starving, they fled northward, away from the butcher's knives of the Feili people. However, on that long road, what they saw were more corpses lying on the roadside due to hunger and disease.
No one wants to recall that scene. After arriving at a safe place, they locked everything in the deepest place in their hearts and never touched it. Every touch was a kind of torture that they could not bear to live with.
.
But now, all the memories have awakened with the words of Archduke Adolf. The crowd gradually began to cry. The men clenched their fists and bit their lips. The women covered their mouths, hugged each other, and sobbed.
"It took me a long time to accept all this." Grand Duke Adolf was deeply moved, tears welling up in his eyes, "This is reality, it is the misfortune of all of us, and it is the shame of my Lulian family.
!My incompetence has brought shame to my ancestors who are watching me behind me.”
"Father." Sofia on the side stepped forward and supported the Grand Duke's trembling body, her eyes slightly red.
"It doesn't matter." Adolf glanced at his beloved little daughter, took a deep breath, suppressed his turbulent emotions, and said, "Maybe we can't choose our own destiny, but we can choose how to face him!"
His voice echoed over Munich.
"Here is the free and prosperous Lulian. It is the place where our ancestors have come since humans set foot on the land of redemption. They reclaimed land here, drove away monsters, built cities, and thrived. Every inch of land here,
Their blood and sweat are condensed. Every house records their lives. This belongs to us Lulians. Their blood flows in our bodies. They have never surrendered to anyone. Today, we also
Never bow your head like anyone else! We are fighting! From Polabel to Durin, from Aksazi to Montoli Port, from the Warcraft Mountains to the Elam Plains, from the Shire River to the seaside, we have been fighting.
!”
Everyone looked at Archduke Adolf with sparkling eyes, and the blood in their bodies boiled at his sonorous and powerful voice.
"Not long ago, we encountered the most ferocious enemy offensive at the foot of Meiding City. At that time, we only had 15,000 people. The enemy on the opposite side had a total of 40,000. When their forward arrived at the foot of Meiding City,
No one believed that we would win. However, we won. We annihilated more than 5,500 of Philip's forwards under the city of Meding. We annihilated the Burgess Barony Canyon 30 kilometers south of Meding.
There are more than 6,000 enemies. Not only that, we also drove the Feili people back to the defense line 60 kilometers south of Meiding City, stopping their offensive in the three theaters of the empire at the same time!"
Archduke Adolf raised his arms excitedly and roared: "Cheer for the great victory of Meding, Lulians!"
"Long live Lulian!"
"Long live the Saint Solan Empire!"
As soon as Archduke Adolf finished speaking, the crowd erupted into a roar like thunder. This sound swept the entire city in an instant, soaring into the sky and stirring up the storm.
Whether it was the people in the square or the soldiers in the military camp, whether it was the gentlemen and nobles stepping off the carriage or the refugees in the refugee area, everyone jumped up. Everyone's face was flushed with boiling blood.
.Everyone is throwing everything they can into the sky, hats, scarves, and coats.
They were jumping, shouting, waving their arms, and hugging each other. At this moment, the entire city of Munich fell into a carnival.
Amidst the cheers, Archduke Adolf loudly shouted: "Let us honor our heroes!"
The investiture ceremony had been prepared long ago. With Archduke Adolf and the royal envoy Count Cazes standing side by side, the heroes of the Battle of Medina stepped forward one by one to receive the medals as Kahn called them out.
.
"The first team of the second battalion of the Lulian Wuhe Army, captain Sean, was awarded the third-level Golden Lion Medal, registered in the Knights Hall, the second-level tiger captain of the Jin Empire, awarded a B-level fief. Canonized as a
Wait for the Baron."
The crowd burst into applause.
Everyone was clicking their tongues in admiration. Unexpectedly, the Grand Duke and the royal family had invested so much money this time. Sean jumped from an ordinary civilian knight to the ranks of the nobility, and also obtained a B-level fief. It was a leap to the sky!
However, he deserves this. People will be envious of what he has obtained, but no one will be jealous. You know, if it were not for the 121 squad in the battle of Meiding City, I am afraid that everyone would not even have the chance to stand here today.
None of them, either died in the flames of war, or wandered to nowhere.
"Soldier Burroughs, First Squadron, Second Battalion, First Battalion of the Lulian Uprising Army," Kahn smiled and motioned for the knife to come forward, "Awarded the Second Class Silver Lion, registered in the Knights Hall, and promoted to the Imperial Royal First Class Leopard.
, be granted a C-level fief, and canonized as a knight."
Following Kahn's roll call, the soldiers of Team 121 of the Wuhe Army stepped forward one after another to receive medals and canonizations. Everyone was awarded the registration of the Knights Hall and the award of fief. Even those who were still studying in the first training camp,
Tang Xiaoben, who could only become a trainee knight, made an exception and directly registered as a knight, and was promoted to the first-class imperial leopard knight.
The atmosphere was completely detonated at this moment. Every soldier who stepped forward received the warmest applause and cheers from the people.
Starting from Squad 121 to the heroes of the noble army, a total of fifty people walked onto the celebration stage to accept the awards. At the same time, Grand Duke Adolf and Count Kazins also announced that the Grand Duke and the royal family would spend an additional two million gold coins.
Reward the soldiers who participated in the war in Meiding City. Provide generous pensions to the families of all soldiers who died in the war.
When the last soldier to be publicly canonized walked down the celebration stage, Archduke Adolf stepped forward and pressed his hands.
People fell silent and stared at him.
"I think everyone knows that there is one person who must be mentioned for the victory in the Battle of Meiding City." Archduke Adolf's eyes fell on Roy in the audience.
"It was this boy who, at the most critical moment of the war, together with his companions, united and organized the soldiers of the rabble-rous army and resisted the Feili people's attack. It was also he who invested in the enemy's knights
When attacking, he used his shocking magic to win a golden opportunity for the Bavarian Knights..."
People were excited. Of course they knew who Archduke Adolf was talking about. Everything about this young magician whose name was unknown had already spread throughout Lulian. He was the most critical contributor to the victory of Meding and was the key to saving the country.
The hero who defeated Medin City and all the ragtag soldiers is the pride of the Lulian people!
Everyone's eyes were shining, especially those young girls who admired the hero. Their cheeks were blushing and their hearts were beating fast. How they wanted to see what the young magician looked like. If he were here, they would definitely disregard their reserve.
They rushed up to him, kissed his face, and sprinkled him with all the flowers in their hands.
"You don't know who he is..." Adolf's eyes swept over the students in the first training camp and said slowly: "But, I know. He is among you, right?
In the first training camp of heroes!”
With a sound of "Boom!", the crowd burst into commotion and exclamation, and the whole city of Munich felt like it was exploding.
.When I was writing the chapter yesterday, I didn’t notice that Sophia’s hair should be silver-white. I was in a daze at the time.
.In addition, it’s the end of the month, and the monthly ticket rankings are starting to get intense. Brothers, those who have monthly tickets should come over.
