The carriage moved slowly among the celebrating crowd.
All kinds of people, with smiles on their faces, poured past the carriage. They were talking and laughing, and from time to time they jumped and laughed with the cheers that broke out in front of them.
Alessia pursed her lips and hid her pretty face behind the curtains, looking excitedly at the celebrating people through the gap. It felt like a dream.
As Atlan flew to all directions of the empire, the news of Lulian's victory was like a hurricane, sweeping across the entire empire. From the countryside to the city, from the south to the north, from the plains of the imperial capital to the border outposts, everything that could be seen was
Every place is an ocean of joy.
In remote villages, working people put down their work, put on beautiful clothes worn only for the holidays, drove horse and ox carts, and went to the church in the town to pray and thank God for his blessing. The town was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and there was food.
Drinks, juggling performances, everything.
The children, who were dressed up like dolls, were as happy as the Chinese New Year. Their neatly ironed clothes and neatly combed hair soon became completely messy. One by one, they were sneaking in and out of the crowd, running happily.
, chasing it, and by nightfall it was as dirty as a mud monkey.
The adults didn't care about the children at this time, they just talked excitedly. They talked about Lulian's victory over and over again, listening to every reliable and unreliable gossip with relish, and never tired of it.
In the city, it's a complete carnival.
The crowds of people celebrating were crowded on the streets. Various floats were also pulled out. Performances that were originally only available during the festival were organized as quickly as possible. People followed the floats,
Singing and dancing, handsome young men and girls with flying skirts always attract cheers.
Alessia cannot participate in such activities. As long as she shows up, she is afraid that it will immediately cause chaos. She can only sit in the carriage and look at the happy people outside the carriage with envious eyes.
.From time to time, a smile appeared unconsciously at the corner of his mouth.
After yesterday's meeting, before Aleshia had time to worry about it, the issue of food prices had already been resolved.
When Susan ran into the room and told her, she still didn't believe it. It wasn't until she saw the unbelievable battle report, and until the almost crazy cheers rushed from the Imperial Capital Square to Imperial Power Mountain. She jumped up suddenly,
I ran outside with my bare feet, walked through the corridor, and ran up the palace wall.
Standing on the city wall and looking down, the imperial capital, like a lying giant beast, was completely awakened at this moment. Densely packed crowds, cheering and surging, gathered from the streets and alleys, and from the sky
Looking at it, it is really a dazzling spectacle.
"Duff's gang is in trouble," Susan told her with a smile on the city wall at that time. "Miss Moya used the entire supervision department to block the news. Although it only took seven or eight prayer hours, it was enough. Several times
The two plutocrats took action together, and Du Fu and his gang didn't know it, but they also took a lot of it. Now it's all in their hands."
"Really?" Alessia's eyes widened in surprise, and then she laughed so hard, "You deserve it!"
The most difficult problem suddenly disappeared, and Alessia felt relaxed. Duff and others were forgotten. She pulled Susan and ran away, "Quick, let's celebrate too. Oh my god, there are so many people."
The unmarked carriage, escorted by royal knights in plainclothes, silently merged into the crowd. During this time, Aleshia hid behind the curtains and secretly watched, unable to get enough of it.
On the carriage, Susan reported the news she received from time to time.
Regarding the meeting in Atlan, the agreement reached between Edward and the imperial nobles after the meeting, and the subsequent strategic deployment, etc. In general, Lulian's victory has completely won the empire for the royal family.
Supported by most noble lords.
It is different from the previous competition for the three major legions. This time, the attitude of the nobles is more determined and the agreement reached is more solid. It can be said that the royal family has truly grasped the initiative.
Of course, threats are still there.
The Philip Empire will not give up their aggression. On the contrary, the offensive may become more fierce. Internally, Donald has already been torn apart. Next, there will be a game in the government, the military, and in all aspects.
Of course, it was a bit disappointing to say this at this happy moment. After just selecting some important information and briefly talking about it, Susan put the document aside. She looked at Alessia who was as happy as a little girl.
She hadn't seen such a carefree smile on Alessia's face for a long time.
"It's so amazing," Alessia held her chin and looked out the window with a smile. "Originally, I thought we would lose this battle. The news that came back a few days ago is really shocking.
It was frightening to see it. It felt like we were already standing on the edge of a cliff, and we would definitely fall down next step.”
She turned around with a smile, her bright eyes widened with joy and surprise: "How come the moment I woke up, the situation was completely reversed. Oh my god, this is simply... Susan, you must be able to understand this."
I feel so proud, so proud. Our soldiers are so powerful!"
"Yeah!" Susan nodded vigorously. How could she not understand this feeling? The first time she heard the news, she jumped up, waving her fists and jumping and screaming in the room, but
Even so, I couldn't vent the joy that felt like something was suddenly filling my heart.
Thinking of the soldiers who fought bravely in the south, and how they managed to turn the tables in such a dangerous situation, Susan was sincerely proud of them.
"Susan, tell me..." A little translucent light danced in Alessia's clear eyes, "If we can win, will it be Roy..."
Susan was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
Alessia also blushed at her smile and looked at her angrily: "Didn't you say this yesterday? Why are you laughing?"
She clasped her fingers solemnly and said: "Look, let's not say that he made such great contributions in the city of Meiding before. Let's just say that this time, he helped put down the rebellion in Munich, right? Minai's
He was also the first to see through the plan. He also led the army to the fjord..."
Susan laughed harder and harder.
These words were indeed what she said yesterday, but ninety-nine percent of the reason was because she really couldn't find anything else to say to comfort Alessia.
After putting down the rebellion in Munich, she had already seen through Minnai's plan. It was just that Edward mentioned in the letter that the specific situation was not clear. However, no matter how bold she was, she could not make a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.
It is speculated that he will lead a group of rookies of similar age to him and turn this battle around.
Although Aleshia has reached the age of eighteen, her eyebrows have lost the youthfulness of a girl, showing the charm of a woman, gradually blooming into the breathtaking beauty of the most beautiful woman in the mainland, but being together every day, Susan is more beautiful than
Everyone knows the temperament of this girl of His Highness.
Hearing that Roy had gone to the fjord, Aleshia mentioned it several times and was quite worried.
When she heard about the great victory in the south, the first thing she naturally thought of was her guardian knight. Because of this relationship, deep in her heart, she was probably vaguely hoping that Roy could do something great in it.
, what achievements did she make that she was proud of?
The little girl's thoughts were originally supposed to be hidden. But unexpectedly, Aleshia couldn't hold back and actually spoke out.
Susan also admitted that Roy was indeed a good guy. Alessia was proud enough to be able to personally select such a guardian knight.
But war is war after all.
On the battlefield, how many battle-hardened veterans, how many rebellious knights, and how many wise generals are there? How much role can a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy play?
"I won't tell you anymore." Alessia said angrily, "Anyway, I feel that Roy must have made a contribution. If not for anything else, if it hadn't been for him, who would have known that Minai would attack the gorge?
Bay?"
Alessia turned her head and looked out the window.
Susan didn't want to spoil her mood, so she just smiled and shook her head. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Susan opened the dark panel of the carriage door, and a royal knight handed in the latest documents.
.
Susan rummaged through it casually, and her eyes were immediately attracted to the third document.
"Lulien's detailed battle report."
Quickly opening the document, which was specially stamped with the royal secret seal, Susan began to read. After a few minutes, her eyes froze and her mouth opened slightly.
"What's wrong?" In the sunlight coming through the window, Alessia turned her head curiously, looked at Susan who looked shocked, and asked in confusion.
In sight, Susan raised her head.
The shock in the young female knight's eyes could not be concealed.
"That guy Roy..."
………………………
………………………
The horn is loud.
Fei Lie's army retreated like a tide. The vast plains were littered with the bodies of dead soldiers, discarded weapons, flags and various burning debris.
Roy held his chin and stood on the observation deck of the military camp, staring intently.
This is the first time Sophia has repelled the attack of Philip's army.
For more than a dozen prayer hours, Fei Lie's army left at least more than 7,000 corpses in this narrow area. Especially after receiving the news that Adolf led the army to Suncoron Slope and blocked their retreat, this army
, like a trapped beast locked in an iron cage, attacking crazily.
However, Fjord Town was originally located in a mountainous area with rugged and narrow terrain. Even if Philip had an army of 100,000, he would not be able to control it. As long as the passage to the north of the town was held, it would be equivalent to closing the floodgates.
Moreover, the five important places in the north of the fjord are all in the hands of Solan's army, and the east and west lines are horns to each other. No matter which side Fei Lie's army attacks, they will face a flank attack from the other side.
Although Minai has a great reputation, his military use is not only varied, but also interconnected and watertight. However, in a place like this, even if he has great skills, he cannot display them. What's more, although Sophia is not as wily as he is, she is very resourceful when facing battle.
His commanding ability is also excellent.
No matter how Minai tried to seduce her, Sophia just clung to a few key tactical points and repeatedly used the simplest horn defense, leaving Minai with no opportunity to take advantage of her.
After watching for a while, Roy walked down from the observation deck with some disappointment.
When the officers and soldiers in the camp saw him, they all saluted with respect and a hint of curiosity and envy.
Everyone knows that this black-haired knight student owes the greatest contribution to Lulian's current situation. If he hadn't turned the tide, everyone here would have had their families destroyed. This is not just merit,
Still kindness.
Besides, officers and men in the army always respect the strong.
Roy was just a freshman in the first training camp this year. In this battle, he killed four of the Five Jerrys of the Seven Colors Sea. The last one, Zi Sen, simply surrendered.
Such a record is enough to win the recognition of the most rebellious knight.
I heard that Roy has been personally named by His Majesty Edward. Most of Miss Sophia's mission when she came back this time was to ensure his safety.
Therefore, no matter how fierce the fighting outside was at this moment, Roy was ordered to stay in the military camp.
It is conceivable that after this battle is over, this confused civilian boy will be promoted to a noble title and rise to the top. See you again in the future as a noble master.
However, Roy did not feel the envy of ordinary soldiers at all. On the contrary, being protected by Sophia as a fragile object made him very annoyed.
However, the hierarchy in the army is strict and the rules are very strict. A small captain of a long knight has no room to resist in front of Sophia.
Back in the barracks, Roy was in a daze for a while. Roy suddenly remembered something and took out the captured animal skin - [Dragon Taboo] from the space ring.
