Outside the military camp, the noise was like a sea wave, one wave after another. But inside the military camp, there was total silence.
Martial law has not been lifted yet, and the gates of all major camps are closed.
However, if you look at it from the air, you can see that every camp is already a tense and busy scene. The knights put on their armor and mounted their horses. The soldiers were fully armed and stood in formation. The officers walked anxiously in front of the formation.
Walking back and forth, whispering to each other from time to time.
The three major camps at the front, middle and back, and all the large and small camps, are all like this. The sounds of footsteps, shouts, commands, the clash of armors, and the neighing of war horses are endless. It is like the roar of floods imprisoned within the dam.
All it takes is a gap to turn into an overwhelming wave.
The conflict that had been building up for a long time has now reached the point where it has completely erupted. Whether it is the private army that betrayed the nobles or the troops that were loyal to Adolf, they are all ready for a bloody battle.
The current military camp is like a huge gunpowder keg. Whether and when it will explode depends on when the sparks from the upper floors fall.
"How about it?"
In the Chinese army camp, Darnell stood in front of the window of the captain's room of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade, looking at the busy camp area. His brows were furrowed tightly.
"Avery has not lifted martial law yet, and has stepped up patrols this morning. None of our people can go out. News from the outside can't come in either." The knight captain beside him said respectfully, "What we know now,
It’s just the news that came last night.”
Darnell nodded and walked a few steps in the room with his hands behind his back. Thinking of the news that came secretly last night, his heartbeat sped up.
Neither he nor the private generals in the army expected that last night, Xilin and Natasha would take action decisively and take advantage of the secret meeting between Eugene and Mrs. Joyce to capture him in one fell swoop!
This magical stroke sealed the victory almost before the battle broke out.
Just wait for today, as the deputy commander of the coalition forces, with the joint recommendation of the noble lords who are the elders of the commander, to replace Eugene and become the commander of the coalition forces. The city of Munich will fall into our hands!
Even if the attack on Eugene is revealed in the future, it will not matter. Archduke Adolf is dead. Not to mention Fano who is alone outside, even His Majesty Edward may not be able to secure his position. The noble lords can completely sit back and admire him.
Nicheng, backed by the big tree of Lanlis!
When the time comes, the world will be in chaos and the princes will be divided. Who will remember a Eugene?!
The more Darnell thought about it, the more excited he became.
Although it was a bit unbelievable that everything went smoothly, he was not surprised.
After all, standing behind our side is the Langris family. To this terrifying behemoth, Lulian's small conflict is just an easy game. Those who can compete with them are the three imperial royal families.
And those old nobles who have been passed down for hundreds of years.
People like Eugene are not even qualified to be their opponents.
Now, whether inside or outside the military camp, our side can be said to have a sure chance of victory. The only one who deserves to be wary is Avery.
You must know that when Eugene left last night, he had appointed Avery as the acting commander of the coalition forces. This order was conveyed to each battalion in writing in a completely formal procedure.
Darnell didn't know if this was because Eugene had already subconsciously realized some danger when he went to the appointment last night. But in any case, his move brought him a lot of trouble.
As long as he did not sit on the throne of the coalition commander for one minute, Avery would still be the acting commander of the coalition forces for one minute. His words were orders, and even he could not openly disobey them.
Moreover, Avery's character is much worse than that of Eugene. When his temper comes up, he is completely reckless.
Now he doesn't know the news that Eugene has been secretly captured. But once he knows, I'm afraid he can really do something to the death!
Darnell pondered.
The news of Eugene's capture was only known to him and a few private army generals under his command, and it was impossible for Avery to know.
However, Eugene did not come back all night, and Avery might have felt something. From last night to now, the camp's vigilance has increased a lot. Each battalion has been ordered to stay in its own camp. Any disturbance will lead to
Come to the inspection team. This has completely cut off information between the inside and outside of the coalition.
Listening to the sound, Xilin and the lords have arrived at the square outside the gate of the military camp. The curtain of this scene has begun. The important thing now is to force Avery to go out to meet!
"Sir, shall we continue to wait?" a private army general asked beside him.
Darnell said flatly: "Wait! Now outside, everyone is waiting for the rear army to go out and for Eugene to show up. No matter what, Avery has to come up with an explanation. I don't believe that he can keep spending so much time.
Get down!"
Just as he was talking, a guard suddenly walked into the room with a hurried look and reported: "Sir, Herman, the commander of the rear camp guard, asked you to go to the rear camp quickly. There is news from outside. Please report it to me."
you."
"Oh?" Darnell looked happy.
Mrs. Joyce and Eugene had a private meeting last night. It was Natasha who contacted a group of nobles and sent Wells to lead an attack on Shannon Manor and captured Eugene. Now Natasha has replaced Mrs. Joyce.
Position, becoming the most popular person in front of Xilin and the leader of the nobles.
And Herman, as Natasha's chief knight and confidant general, also commands the rear camp, the most important base of the nobles. The tide has risen, and his current status is probably even higher than that of his nominal deputy commander. Since he
After getting the news, it was only natural for me to go there myself!
Thinking of this, Darnell immediately stood up: "Let's go!"
…………………….
In the Chinese army camp, a somewhat bloated young man climbed up the wall and squeezed in among his companions while asking anxiously: "How is it? How is it?"
This is the recruit training camp of the Chinese Army Camp.
Originally, this was the last day of intensive training for students in major training camps. After today, these students will go down to their respective teams together with those students who were selected before. However, due to martial law in the military camp last night, this
Boot camp is out of control.
What surprised everyone was that early this morning, other students who had been assigned to various camps were also ordered to return here.
At this time, the recruit training camp was already overcrowded.
Thousands of students from the three major training camps all gathered here. Everyone stood in small groups on the competition ground, huddled together and talking.
They had heard about this storm for a long time. They originally thought that in the end, General Eugene and the noble lords would finally reach a compromise, and the frontline war was urgent. The rear army could not delay the expedition. However, they did not expect that as the situation developed, this storm
, has the potential to destroy the entire city of Munich.
This is what most training camp students don’t want to see.
They are all descendants of Lulians and have grown up in this land. Compared with the adults who have been living together in a cruel world for many years, these half-grown children are full-blooded, simpler, and have a greater sense of justice.
Their dream since childhood is to become a great knight.
In front of the gate of the academy, the eight virtues and admonitions of knights are engraved, and on the walls of the corridor, portraits of heroic knights that they are familiar with are hung. They dream that one day, they can also become one of those heroes who are recited by others.
one of the names.
When the Feili people invaded the empire, when the situation in Lulian was critical. When they became the first batch of trainees to be recruited into the army in the nearly 100 years since the establishment of the Lulian branch of the three major training camps, everyone was full of ambition.
Unexpectedly, their recruit training had just ended, and before they even met the Feili people, they had to face a sad and shameful internal strife.
The fat boy climbed up the wall. He stood on tiptoe and looked out.
Outside the wall is the South Square. From this position, you can clearly see the dense crowds in the square and the Hera Hotel diagonally opposite.
"A bunch of despicable traitors, they have indeed taken refuge with the Langris family." An indignant companion said in his ear through gritted teeth.
The fat young man stared blankly at Xilin on the terrace of the Hera Hotel and the nobleman standing behind him. He looked as disappointed and sad as the other young people next to him.
They couldn't believe that these noble lords actually chose to betray.
The noise in the square came like a tidal wave. It was the roar of countless angry people.
However, this voice had no effect on the noble lords who were protected by knights and policemen. They stood on the terrace of the Hera Hotel, standing still like rocks standing in the tide. Not only that,
Their escort soldiers are still arresting people everywhere.
Several civilians who spoke too fiercely struggled and were captured by the heavily armed and strong soldiers on the charge of insulting the nobles. Although the people around them resisted, how could they be the opponent of the aristocratic guards as they were unarmed?
The students saw with their own eyes that not far away, a short civilian was caught by two tall soldiers. The woman who was holding him next to him was hit to the ground by another soldier with the shaft of a spear in his hand.
People around her supported her. Several angry civilians wanted to argue with the soldiers, but were forced back by sharp spear points.
This happens in every corner of the square.
This is the power of authority. In the face of such power, ordinary civilians are like lambs.
This scene made the young people on the wall red-eyed. Many people could not help but turn their heads and cast their angry eyes towards the southeast corner of the arena.
Compared with other places in the boot training camp, the southeast corner seemed a bit empty. Dozens of noble children stood under a magic eucalyptus tree that looked like a giant umbrella, in small groups, talking and laughing happily.
These students are none other than the children of the noble families standing behind Xilin in the three major training camps. The first, second and third training camps add up to a total of thirty or forty people. Among them, Quincy
Brooke, Klaus and Siwok were also on the list.
"I think Archduke Adolf is doomed this time. In fact, it's not our fault. He himself suffered a defeat on the front line and fell into the hands of the Feili people. Who can he blame?"
"Yes. I heard from my dad that General Fano is just out of his mind this time. The Munich City Guard has always been the defense force of Munich. Its function is to defend Munich and protect Lulian, the most important city.
Once this line of defense collapses, everything including our territory will be destroyed. But as soon as he heard that the Archduke was surrounded by the Phillies, he would mobilize all his troops to rescue him... Hey, even the main force like the Bavarian Knights suffered a defeat.
What happened to the Munich City Guard? The reputation of the Fiery Cavalry was not blown out by mouth. Even the Red Leaf Knights and the Twelfth Legion almost lost their foothold and were about to be destroyed.
Have you arrived at Meiding City?"
"Fano doesn't care! His fortune and life are all tied to Archduke Adolf. Of course he has to save him. Even if it's just a show, he has to act with sincerity, right? After all, he doesn't provide the food and salary.
Those who go to the battlefield to fight tooth and nail are not his people!"
"Hey, he has a good idea. Use our money and our soldiers to fight for credit. If we really lose the battle and lose the last line of defense in Munich, our family's territory will also be unlucky. Then
Sometimes, he is afraid that he can slip away faster than anyone else."
"That's it. So, I heard my dad say that we can't let them do whatever they want this time. Our family's foundation must be preserved no matter what. Even if we get scolded, it's better than nothing. Besides, the situation in the empire is so big
We all know it. We don’t know whether the position in the imperial capital will be secure or not. In the future, if the Lanlis family really takes over Saint Solan, then why don’t we regret it if we don’t seize this opportunity now?”
"To say that the Lanlith family has taken over the empire, I think there is a high probability of it. Over the past three hundred years, the Lanlith family has produced numerous geniuses. This generation has even produced an Augustus. He was only in his twenties, and he has already been promoted to a saint.
Knight! Moreover, he is the godson of Pope Nicholas II and the future leader of the Knights Templar. Regardless of family background, talent or appearance, he is the number one person in the mainland. Even if His Majesty Edward survives this time, who will compete in the imperial capital in the future?
Another opponent of Augustus? As long as he marries Princess Alessia, isn’t the throne of the emperor within the grasp of the Langris family?”
"Humph, in the eyes of us mortals, the throne of this emperor may be strange. But Augustus, a genius and genius, will definitely enter the temple of heaven in the future. By then, there is no telling who will get the glory of whom.
It is also a blessing that Princess Alessia can be attracted by him."
A group of noble children were talking a lot.
This storm was a disaster for others, but for them and their family, it was a golden opportunity. Even before today, they had been listening to their fathers talking about it in the living room and study room of their castle.
The pros and cons, gathered together at this moment, are all vying for the first place and discussing enthusiastically.
Everyone's mood is both uneasy and excited. They have been exposed to it since childhood, and they are more mature and realistic than the civilian students who dream of being a great knight. They know that if they want to get ahead and be rich and powerful, they must not rely on a person.
A great dream is not just an opportunity, but also a scheming trick!
Since Philip's invasion, the old order of the empire has been broken.
After today, in the future, this city of Munich will be the world of these families. The status and power of the family will far exceed that of Archduke Adolf. By then, even if Lulian falls, it will not matter. As long as they rely on the Langris family
Is this big tree afraid that it will not be able to make a comeback in the future? Even if it goes one step further, from a rural aristocrat in the south to joining the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital and entering the political cabinet, there is no telling.
As for the looks in the eyes of the students next to them, they automatically ignored them.
The family elders have already made their choice, and their children have no choice but to follow. Even if something goes against the knightly code, there is nothing they can do about it.
The virtue of knights only exists in the presence of beautiful ladies with fluttering skirts at dances with melodious music. In peacetime, anyone can use this thing for decoration. But in this wartime, the emphasis is on the weak and the strong. At this time, what else is there to talk about?
Loyalty and chivalry are too ridiculous.
Only those common people who have never seen the world are so naive!
They look at it, just let them look at it well enough. No matter how contemptuous the eyes are, it can't hurt one hair. In the era of Archduke Adolf, these civilian students did not dare to do anything. Could it be that Munich is about to fall to their own family?
Under the rule, do they still dare to change the world?
"Shameless!" Not far away, Giles looked at these nobles with cold eyes and spat fiercely.
"It's not like you just met them today," Griffin, whose injury has improved, said disdainfully. "Based on what these guys do in the academy on weekdays, how high can you expect their moral standards to be?"
?Look at those nobles outside, like father, like son!"
"That's disgusting," Eva angrily stood next to Tang Xiaoben, "Why are we all gathered together? Staying with these guys makes me feel uncomfortable all over."
"Today's matter may not be that simple," Tang Xiaoben looked worried, "Mr. Avery gathered us together, I'm afraid he was afraid that we students would also be involved in this internal strife. From this point of view,
, Mr. Avery will not compromise with the other party so easily. Maybe..."
"By the way, where's Roy? Why isn't he here?" Nicole looked around. Although Julie beside her didn't speak, her pair of wonderful eyes were also searching the crowd with concern.
They were originally in the logistics escort team. They received the order this morning to gather at the recruit training camp.
Since Roy was arrested the day before yesterday, no one has seen him again. In the past two days, the logistics escort team has not trained, and the officers of the escort team have not found trouble with everyone. Maybe it was because the ragtag army surrounded the logistics team last night
The convoy camp made those damn private army officers calm down a bit.
With a ragtag group of men making such a fuss, Herman and his gang should not dare to do anything to Roy. However, without seeing Roy, everyone was still a little worried about him.
"Could it be," Eva asked worriedly, "that they are still keeping him in jail?"
"Who knows?" Luke, who has always been taciturn, frowned and said, "However, we don't have to worry too much. If they really dare to do anything to Roy, let alone others, Young Commander Phillip of the Red Leaf Knights will do it.
I can tear them apart."
"Yes, there is also Miss Mo Ya from the Supervision Department." Tang Xiaoben, who comes from a wealthy family, knows much more about the Supervision Department than these civilian companions present. He sneered and said, "Back in the Grand Duke's Mansion, Roy beat me up.
Scarlett, Miss Moya announced that he was under the protection of the Ministry of Supervision in front of everyone. People like Herman have not been in Munich for a long time. I'm afraid they don't know about it. Otherwise, give him ten
He's so brave that he doesn't even dare to lock Roy up. Besides..."
Tang Xiaoben said, looking around at everyone, and said with a smile: "Others don't know what kind of virtue this guy Roy is, but we don't know it either? He is always the only one who plots against others. How can it be someone else's turn to let him suffer?"
Hearing what Tang Xiaoben said, the young people all snickered. Julie pursed her lips and nodded repeatedly, "Yeah. Instead of worrying about him, it's better to worry about his captor."
They were joking here, and someone noticed the crowd of aristocratic children over there.
"Hey, isn't this the hero team of our first training camp? Why, why didn't I see your good friend Roy? Where did he go?"
Quincy, who was wearing expensive purple-blue magic pattern armor, was talking to Bruno and several other noble youths. When he heard laughter, he turned around and said with a sneer, "I think I heard that he was arrested.
?”
Roy's popularity in the first training camp is not good. Except for Scarlett, whom he beat up at the Grand Duke's Mansion, Pei Zhan, who he defeated in the academy competition not long ago, and a group of aristocratic children from the S Brigade.
, those who hated him the most were probably Quincy and Bruno, who were beaten up by him on the entrance day and then forced to leave in despair.
These two were also unlucky. Roy, the demon star, hit the tip of his spear on the first day he entered school. Later, when the students in the hospital talked about Roy, they would always treat Quincy and Bruno as jokes.
If they hadn't opened Demon King Roy's seal, the First Training Camp wouldn't have been turned upside down. In the end, even Princess Scarlett and the major groups of aristocratic children in the academy fell into a fight.
Although they left the first training camp, these voices still reached the ears of Quincy and Bruno. This made them unable to raise their heads in the new training camp.
Therefore, when they saw Julie, Nicole and others, it immediately brought back memories of the past.
Now, the matter of Roy being arrested has already become a big deal and everyone knows about it. But even the riotous army who made a fuss last night ended up silently?
They had long known from their fathers that Roy was the person designated by the Lanrith family to deal with. Seeing that he was unlucky, after today, they and their family would become the new rulers of Munich City.
Under such a contrast, I couldn't bear it any more, so I immediately laughed at him.
Quincy's sarcasm made Roy's friends feel angry.
Eva was outspoken and retorted: "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be the Quincy classmate who was kicked out of our training camp. What, you haven't been beaten enough before, do you want Roy to beat you again?"
"Smelly bitch..." Quincy became angry and cursed when he suddenly saw a figure flashing and a fat hand slapped him in the face with lightning speed, sending him flying away.
.
Tang Xiaoben!
Boom, as soon as the fight started here, there was a sudden commotion among the surrounding people. Like a spark falling into a powder keg, all the students around him rushed over.
"You!" Quincy got up from the ground and looked at Tang Xiaoben in shock and anger.
Tang Xiaoben stood in front of Eva, squinting at Quincy with disdain, and said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you dare to scold her again, I will knock out all your teeth today. Don't think that your family is near
Once you get on board with the Lanlithians, you can go sideways. A small earldom is nothing in front of me."
"Well said!"
"Hit him!"
The students around were making loud noises. They had long disliked these noble children.
The families of these guys betrayed the empire and fell into the arms of the Lanlith people. As members of the training camp and the empire's trainee knights, not only were they not ashamed of it, but they were proud of it and felt that they were even more superior to others. This kind of expression makes people hate it.
He spat on it.
Amid the commotion, the noble disciples behind Quincy also walked over quickly.
Bruno helped Quincy up. Hector, who seemed to be the leader of a group of noble children, stepped out from the crowd, frowned and asked: "What's going on?"
Hector, who replaced Scarlett as the leader of the aristocratic children's group, led the major aristocratic children's groups in a collective attack during the first training camp's internal competition, shouting for Roy to get out. Later, Roy was beaten by Roy with a series of wonderful actions.
After being slapped in the face by his performance, I was silent for several days.
In the competition in the academy, he was completely defeated. Not only did the aristocratic group he led fail to succeed in their massive collective attack, but even their biggest supporter, Vice-President Diarra, resigned sadly and left the city of Munich.
This made Hector deeply ashamed.
After the game, he joined the military camp like other students.
In the military, Hector is relatively low-key. After all, the people gathered here are not only the students from the first training camp, but also the second and third training camps. Compared with many of the children of big families, Hector
His special family background is nothing worth boasting about.
Affected by the failure of the competition in the courtyard, the noble children who were originally following him around him either devoted their energy to the relationship management with the commanders of the same camp. They also gave warm smiles to those who were more powerful than him in the Hector family.
The powerful star student is becoming increasingly indifferent to him.
It was only in the past two days that the situation changed.
Not only the people who used to surround him came back one after another, but also some of the children from big families who had looked down upon him on weekdays also smiled at him and tried to make friends with him.
The reason is very simple, because only these aristocratic children know that Hector's mother is none other than Mrs. Joyce's close friend. The leader of Captain Hermann of the Logistics Guards is also the person on the terrace of the Hera Hotel at this moment.
Above, the popular figure standing next to Xilin - Count Natasha.
Originally, today Hector was surrounded by all the noble children, chatting and laughing happily. But unexpectedly, when he was in high spirits, there was a commotion here.
Hearing a noble boy next to Quincy tell how Tang Xiaoben attacked Quincy, Hector frowned, looked at Tang Xiaoben coldly, and said: "Tang Xiaoben, you are too presumptuous.
"
"Oh," Tang Xiaoben said lazily, "Really?"
Hecott sneered and said: "I admit that your Tang family in Lingdong has been standing for a hundred years and is an old and famous family. The old marquis of the Tang family has old subordinates all over the empire. However, this is Lulian, and the foundation of the Tang family is not here.
No matter how arrogant you are, you can't reach out with your claws. What's more, if you have a little bit of eyesight, you should know who will rule the future empire. As a descendant of the Tang family..."
His eyes swept over Nicole, Luke and others, "I advise you to stay away from these untouchables. Especially your 'good friend' Roy. Once you come and mix with them,
It loses your identity. Secondly, you are bringing trouble to your family!"
He sneered: "No matter how powerful your Tang family is, you can't beat a little finger of the Langris family? Look outside, after today, this Lulian will no longer be Grand Duke Adolf's Lulian. Today's disaster, isn't it?
Did Roy, a pariah, bring this on? If he hadn’t humiliated Princess Scarlett, if he hadn’t overestimated his own abilities and accepted Princess Alessia’s canonization as a guardian knight, how could Archduke Adolf be implicated in this?”
The noble disciples around him, including some other students, nodded silently.
Thinking about it now, wasn't it because of the conflict between Roy and Princess Scarlett that Xilin went south? If it hadn't been for this incident, the people of Lanlis would not have set their sights on this place, and how would the city of Munich be like today?
This accident? In the final analysis, it was because of that boy!
After Hector finished speaking, he turned around and looked around with cold eyes: "These words are also advice to you. In addition, I want to ask, who just said that they want to beat us? Today, I am standing here.
, let’s see who dares to take the risk of confiscating their homes and annihilating their clans, and touch us even a hair!”
There was dead silence all around.
The students all looked at Hecott and the proud aristocratic children beside him with contempt and anger. Although they wanted to rush up and beat these guys up, after all, they were no longer impulsive.
A child who doesn't think about the consequences.
At this moment, outside the military camp, the fathers of this group of aristocratic children have already gained the upper hand in this battle. In the future, they will be the actual rulers of Munich. And these students are all local children of Lullian. Not only did they grow up in
I grew up here and my family and friends are all here.
Even if they don't think about themselves, they still have to think about their families.
If you mess with these guys, your family may be taken away by a group of soldiers who rush into your home late one night in the future.
Even Tang Xiaoben gritted his teeth and kept silent.
The Tang family in Lingdong can be considered a large family even in the imperial aristocratic circle. However, as Hector said, the Tang family is not based in Lulian.
And as an outsider from the Tang family, if he beats up people like Hector, although nothing will happen to him, it will implicate Nicole and others around him, causing trouble for them and their families.
We're not in college now.
The battles in the academy are just disputes of spirit among young people. With the Grand Duke in charge of Munich, no matter how arrogant the nobles are, they would not dare to act recklessly. Every trainee in the training camp is the cornerstone of the empire's future military force, including their families.
All are protected by the Empire and the Academy.
Now, the empire is in turmoil, and the city of Munich is in chaos. Once the family of Heckert and others become the rulers of this city, the consequences are really hard to predict. They can even betray Archduke Adolf.
, if you commit cruelty, killing a family of civilians is like killing a few lambs.
In the silence, suddenly, the students looking out from the camp wall let out a burst of exclamation.
"Look, it's the Eastern Expedition Army!"
