Chapter 23 News of victory!

With a bang, the crowd exploded.

"Your Majesty," Duke Kelly looked up from the battle report, his whole face was shining, "Is this news true?"

"I can testify. Every word above is true!" Before Edward could speak, General Safin strode forward and said proudly.

"Just the day before yesterday, our Meiding City reinforcements set up an ambush in the Rock Valley and annihilated Fei Lie's Imperial Army Naqi's troops. They beheaded Naqi and wiped out more than a hundred enemies. Later, they met the enemies who came to support them in the southwest of Huohu Village.

Buz's troops, kill Buz and wipe out more than a hundred of his Black Lightning Knights."

Safin's voice echoed in the room.

"After that, our army worked non-stop to pursue the enemy Tie Lun's troops who fled north, and set up an ambush thirty kilometers north of Nuanshui Lake Castle to annihilate them and kill Tie Lun!"

"At this time, the enemy's eastern front troops Muye and Zisen's troops had realized the danger and gave up attacking our major strategic locations, and instead marched into the Red Scorpion Canyon with the intention of concentrating their forces and sending reinforcements to Munich as we headed south.

Blocked outside the fjord war zone. However, they made the wrong calculation!"

"After annihilating the troops of Naqi, Buz and Tielun, our Meiding City reinforcements and the fjord defenders took the initiative to attack decisively and went north to the Red Scorpion Canyon. Yesterday afternoon, in conjunction with the reinforcements, we attacked the enemy's troops in the late night Zisen.

, annihilate them all, kill Mu Ye, capture Zi Sen, and achieve a complete victory with overwhelming force!"

"Last night, the main reinforcements of our city of Munich have arrived in the fjord and built a defense line. The five important places in the fjord are all in our hands. At the same time, in the west, Archduke Adolf has broken through the siege and joined Fano's troops in the Night Canyon.

Defeated the main force of Fei Lie's Southern Army that was guarding the Night Canyon, and wiped out more than 30,000 enemies!"

Safin's voice was loud and full of energy. He had read this battle report countless times, but now that he said it out loud, every word was as solid as iron and had a strong impact.

Kill Na Qi, kill Buzi, kill Tie Lun, kill Mu Ye, and one Zi Sen was defeated and captured.

Although these five heroes of the Seven Colored Sea were young, everyone had already heard of their names. Now that they heard their fate, every time they heard the word "kill", they burst out in exclamation.

By the time Safin said that Adolf had broken through the siege and wiped out more than 30,000 enemies, many nobles' blood was already rising, and their whole bodies were attacked by an electric numbness. They gritted their teeth, clenched their fists, and trembled with excitement.

"Just today, Archduke Adolf has led the Lurian Army, the Red Leaf Army and the 12th Army of our frontier army to march eastward and arrived at the Corona Slope! The main force of the 30,000-strong Southern Army of Fei Lie, led by the enemy Minai who intends to seize the fjord, has been

, blocked in the mountainous area south of the fjord!”

When he said this, even Safin himself couldn't help but feel shaken. He couldn't control himself. His thoughts were wandering in the din that exploded all around.

The previous series of achievements are already amazing enough.

But even he and Edward didn't expect that Sophia would strike so harshly and decisively! Not only did she turn the tide of the battle, she even used her own strength to set up such a shocking situation!

It was like a card game in which all the family property was blocked. It was already a huge loss, but who knew that the last card was dealt, but it forced the opponent into a desperate situation. With Safin's rich experience, it is completely conceivable that

Even if Minai has the ability to reach heaven, this battle will be lost.

Lulian, not only did not fall, but it was able to completely annihilate Fei Lie's southern army. After that, they sang triumphantly and regained all the lost territory!

What an exciting victory this is!

Safin took a deep breath and calmed down: "At this moment, Minai is already a turtle in the urn. Within three days, our army will win a complete victory!"

"It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable!" the chief elder of the Council shouted excitedly, "God bless me, Saint Solan. God bless me, Saint Solan!"

With this old voice, the whole room was boiling.

These old and prudent nobles lost their usual stability and reserve at this moment. Some people jumped up, hugged the people around them, and high-fived excitedly; some waved their fists, shouted loudly, and roared.

Several lords whose territories were not far from Lulian simply threw their hats to the ceiling.

The cheers swept away in all directions like a tide, spreading throughout the entire castle.

The coachmen, guards and servants who were waiting outside the castle all stopped chatting and walking, and looked towards the main building in surprise.

Everyone knows exactly what will happen in this meeting.

When you think about it, the room at this moment must be tense, dull and depressing, and you don't even dare to breathe loudly.

But no one expected that what everyone heard at this moment was such a heartfelt cheer. Those noble gentlemen who were calm and solemn, and could not express their emotions and anger, were shouting and making noise, sounding like a group of furry kids who had caught a rabbit.

!

What kind of twist is this?!

In the center of the room, the nobles next to Donald had cold hands and feet.

When Edward's attendant took out the battle report, excluded them, and handed it to the chief elder of the Council, someone had already realized that something was wrong.

However, at that time, no one thought about this.

Even if I thought about it, I wouldn't be able to imagine it to this extent.

Lulian's battle situation has been repeatedly analyzed and deduced. Although Donald is not an expert in military affairs, he still has many experienced generals who can be called experienced in hundreds of battles. No matter how incompetent or negligent they are, they will never

It was impossible to mistake the outcome of such a battle.

The reason Donald has endured it for so many years is because he is extremely cautious by nature.

This time he took action after repeated discussions with everyone and made up his mind. He waited until the news of the fjord's fall was conclusive before launching his attack.

Originally, in their opinion, this time of forcing the palace, the right time, place, and people came together, and the overwhelming force suppressed it, and Edward did not even have a chance to resist.

Unexpectedly, in the end, something went wrong. And it happened in the most unlikely place.

When Safin read the Lullian battle report loudly, every word he said was like a heavy hammer, hitting the heart of every nobleman who supported Donald.

The fjords, the night canyons, and the good news that was enough to make the entire Saint Solan go crazy, in the end, finally converged into a huge one amidst the cheers of the nobles who they thought would definitely fall to them.

Slap, slap hard.

Snap!

The slap was extremely loud!

This slap directly dissipated the momentum of these nobles who supported Donald. Their questions and everything they worked hard to promote were like the tide hitting the hard rock, just the broken water splashes all over the sky, falling one after another, crackling.

The waves were splashing in the foaming sea tide, gradually receding.

"How could this happen?" Ebut was completely stunned. He turned his head blankly, trying to find the answer or the support of the people around him.

However, the only people who answered him were the same lost eyes of the nobles of Donald's family.

"This is impossible!" Someone's voice trembled.

But everyone knows that this kind of news cannot be fake. Even if Edward announces his abdication, it is absolutely impossible to use this kind of fake news to destroy the glory of the Solan family and deceive these nobles.

Watts's face suddenly became extremely pale. He quickly turned his head and cast his eyes on Donald. He didn't know what would happen to Donald after suffering such a huge blow.

In his sight, Donald's face was expressionless.

This old man was like a sculpture. He stood there quietly. He looked at Edward expressionlessly, as if he was deaf to everything that happened. It seemed that he was no different from the usual powerful minister who ruled the empire and controlled the world.

Same place.

He is still so powerful, still scary, and his eyes are still sharp. Like an iceberg, standing still in this boiling and noisy hall.

But Watts is the person who knows Donald best after all.

At this moment, he seemed to see the cracks spreading like a spider web under Donald's cold and hard shell.

Thirty years of planning, thirty years of forbearance, and now I finally made up my mind to take action with all my strength. Seeing that I was only one step away from the throne, I encountered such an incredible reversal. I am afraid that this kind of thing happens to everyone.

The despair of "God wants to destroy me, and it is not a crime of war".

It’s not that Edward is great. It’s not that the opportunity is wrong. It’s not that this launch is not thorough enough or decisive enough. This is simply a trick of fate!

This is the most frustrating place.

This chill, like the whistling snow wind, became more and more bone-chilling with the excited discussions and cheers of the nobles around.

In silence, Donald nodded slowly.

"It seems that I have misunderstood," Donald said slowly, "Your Majesty is worthy of being a great hero. He can turn such a dangerous situation into a safe one. You are very lucky."

The surrounding area gradually became quiet.

"Since His Majesty has given instructions, Your Majesty can keep this seat for the time being." Donald looked away, turned around, and looked around behind him, with a gentle smile on his face. "Let's wait and see what the future holds. Everyone.

, I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”

With that said, he took the first step and walked out of the room. Watts and others followed closely behind him with livid faces.

With a bang, the heavy door closed tightly, isolating the two worlds.

Inside the door, Safin and other nobles loyal to the royal family burst into cheers.

Outside the door, Donald walked through the corridor and walked out of the building. When he stood in the sun, his figure swayed slightly. Watts wanted to step forward to help him, but was pushed away.

Donald stood firm and took a deep breath. When he turned back and looked at the building, there was a trace of terrifying ferocity on his face.

"Watts," he whispered.

"Sir!" Watts took a step forward, leaned over slightly, and waited for his instructions.

"Go and find out what's going on over there in Lulian." Donald's voice was gloomy. "Inform our people and let them prepare. Now that we have broken up, the next step is to fight to the death."

"yes!"

"Let's make some arrangements. I want to see His Majesty the Pope. Also, give me a list of Edward's people who need to be cut off as soon as possible..."

"yes!"

Donald turned and got into the carriage.

The car door closed and the light dimmed, hiding his figure in the shadows, like a ghost.

………………………

………………………

In the central square of Atlanta, more and more people gathered.

Many people nearby heard the news about the war in the south. Not only the passers-by came running towards this side, but even the people who were working or doing business dropped their work.

He closed the shop and hurried over following the crowd.

In just half a prayer time, I didn’t realize that there was already a sea of ​​people downstairs in the hall.

However, the people who had been waiting eagerly for a long time could not wait for the news to be announced. However, those with sharp eyes recognized the knights who escorted the messenger.

"It's from the Supervision Department!" People whispered.

"What are they doing here?"

"Who knows? However, the Supervision Department is now His Majesty's people. Although these guys are all cold and cold, everyone looks like they owe them money, but I think the more vicious they are, the better. I heard that recently.

They have arrested several government officials, and even Donald slammed the table!"

"real?"

"That's not true! The current Supervision Department is very powerful."

"But, no matter how powerful it is, what's the use. Now that Lulian is fighting like this, who doesn't know what Donald wants to do when he comes to Atlanta? If His Majesty is really forced to abdicate. Then..."

The atmosphere suddenly became silent again.

People arriving from the outside gradually grabbed the people around them and asked about the current situation, while those in the middle just waited quietly under the bright sun.

This kind of waiting, every minute and every second, is torture. But no one has any complaints.

As Solan people, their fate is closely tied to this land, this empire, and the soldiers on the southern front. Just to get news from the front, everyone is willing to wait no matter how long it takes.

In the silence, suddenly, the sound of horse hooves came from outside the crowd.

I saw an officer from the Supervision Department galloping towards me. He waved the flag in his hand from a distance. The knights from the Supervision Department who were guarding the small building turned their horses neatly, passed through the crowd, and galloped in the direction of the officer.

And go.

When the figures of the group of knights disappeared into the distance, the door to the balcony on the second floor of the small building creaked open, and a middle-aged man, accompanied by the staff of Ignorant Hall, came out.

"It's Mr. Tony, the Chief Archdeacon of Atlanta!"

"He actually announced the news himself?"

"That's right, shush, be quiet!"

When he walked out of the room, Tony felt that the sunlight was a bit dazzling, bright and dazzling.

The small building is not high, and the balcony on the second floor is only more than four meters high from the ground. However, this height is enough for him to see the entire square clearly.

This is a scene that is more dazzling than the sun and more shocking.

Looking around, with the small building as the center, there are densely packed people below, spreading towards the distance like a forest. All the way to the edge of the square, it separates from the fountain, closes again, and then spreads through the church, crowding every corner of the square in darkness.

A street intersection.

Everyone raised their heads and looked this way.

There are ordinary civilians wearing linen clothes, well-dressed gentlemen and nobles, mercenaries wearing leather armor, dirty tanners and blacksmiths, aunts wearing aprons, young ladies dressed as ladies, and gray-haired old people.

, there are also young people who have just learned a little about the world.

Different people, different identities, different faces.

But the look in his eyes was the same.

Tony couldn't tell what kind of look it was, whether it was hope, sadness, determination in the face of fate, or something else... But he could hear a sound, which was the heartbeat of countless Solan citizens!

It is the never-ending pulse of this empire!

Tony took a deep breath and unfolded the parchment in his hand.

If it weren't for the request of the Ministry of Supervision, he would have been eager to tell everyone the news. The previous wait was even more torturous for him!

However, it's worth it.

He knows why. He also knows what the outcome of that superior contest will be!

Before speaking, Tony couldn't help laughing. His last thought was that it was great to tell everyone this news.

The message was very short and was read out in just a few minutes. When Tony's voice fell, the entire square seemed to be drained of air. Immediately, a terrifying wave of cheers soared into the sky. The entire city and every street were here.

Trembling with wild cheers.

Like thunder, like an earthquake.

It wasn't even a cheer, it was a roar!

An elated roar!

When people who didn't know why walked out of their houses, what they saw were people running crazy on the streets. They came from the square and flew in all directions.

There were businessmen, hawkers, and well-dressed gentlemen. Many civilians were running barefoot on the muddy ground, shouting, and knocking on every door in the streets and alleys.

Many people were already excited and incoherent. They passed on the information they had received to everyone they met, hugged, high-fived and laughed with everyone.

"A great victory for Lulian! A great victory!"

The strategy of the famous Philippe Mynai became a joke. Now, he was blocked by Archduke Adolf and others in the mountains of the southern part of the fjord, and became a turtle in the urn. And his five genius students, together with the knights under his command, were captured by our Solan army.

Killed them one by one. The last one left was also captured!

This information is too much, too complicated, and too unbelievable that it is difficult for people to react in a short time.

But it doesn’t matter, everyone and every group of people in the streets and alleys are talking and talking. You can listen to it for as long as you want and as many times as you want.

Joy spread as the news spread. After figuring everything out, even the dullest people became madmen. They spontaneously took to the streets and joined the huge flow of people to celebrate the victory. Even the patrols

The soldiers also joined the ranks.

I don't know who shouted "Long live Saint Solan" at the top of his lungs, and then the sound gathered into a torrent that resounded through the sky.

Atlanta is completely boiling at this moment!
