When Abraham and other powerful men from the Sanctuary took action, on the other side, Aleshia and Susan, escorted by more than a dozen gryphon knights, landed on a small hill.
Watts, Stevenson and old Barnaugh had ugly expressions on their faces.
They never dreamed that Abraham and others would arrive here nearly an hour ahead of schedule, and they never thought that even Princess Aleshia would come.
It was their decision to sit back and watch as the Tomahawk Knights stood by. But this kind of thing was something they could not do.
Nobles have noble rules.
Normally when they do this, no one will say anything. After all, everyone knows that the Tomahawk Knights are actually controlled by Donald. Neither Edward nor the military commander Safin's orders are as useful as Donald's words.
Donald wanted to preserve his strength, let alone stand idly by on the battlefield. No one dared to question him even if not a single Tomahawk Knight showed up.
However, if it is a war that concerns everyone, such as the invasion of the abyss demons, then even Donald has no right to interfere. After all, it is against almost all nobles. Especially the noble lords in the southern part of the empire who are directly facing the threat of demons.
Will immediately become Donald's enemy.
Under such circumstances, Watts and others who directly issued orders will become the public enemies of the nobles.
If Abraham and others had come half an hour late to pray, none of these problems would have existed.
Adolf, who was trapped in a tight siege, would never survive half an hour. Likewise, the thin second line of defense would not be able to survive until reinforcements arrived.
Once Adolf dies and the defense line is broken, the entire Lurian will immediately decay. Most of the Lulian lords and generals will die on the battlefield, and even if a few can escape, they will be nothing more than lost dogs. At that time, what else can they do.
Are you accusing the Knights of the Tomahawk of not saving their lives?
This is simply ridiculous. This kind of lawsuit is nothing more than back and forth. All issues can be attributed to whether the commander's decision on the battlefield was correct. Even Adolf lost his life. Isn't it clear who is right and who is wrong?
When arguing in court, everyone can say something like "It's a pity that Adolf insisted on having his own way, otherwise the losses would not have been so heavy."
Watts even didn't even think about giving these people a chance to go to court.
The devil breaks through the defense line. How many people here can escape?
Ordinary soldiers just ran away, because their humble status could not play any role anyway. But for those who have enough status to testify against themselves, would they give them a chance to escape? Without the Tomahawk Knights.
Your own escort can kill them all!
These were originally planned long ago, and the three of Watts were just waiting for the last moment to arrive.
But now, Adolf is not dead and the defense line has not been broken. The twelve saints have arrived. As a result, their situation immediately became embarrassing.
Seeing Alessia appear, the three of them couldn't help but exchange sinister looks.
Alexia jumped off the gryphon and stared at the three of them coldly.
She has a gentle and gentle temperament, and a kind heart, and rarely gets angry or argued with others. But at this moment, she could not suppress her anger.
"Why?" Alessia walked up to Stevenson and asked, "Mr. Stevenson, the Tomahawk Knights were ordered to reinforce Lulian. They were supposed to fight alongside Archduke Adolf, but why did I see everything
Everyone is fighting, but you stand by and stand still?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Stevenson's face.
However, with a cough and a wink from Watts beside him, he quickly returned to normal.
Stevenson is very clear that things have reached this point, and he has no other way to go except to go to the dark side and completely surrender to Donald.
At this time, any hesitation will be of no benefit to you.
The reason why Stevenson was willing to listen to Watts was because he had defected to Donald as an important chess piece hidden in the Tomahawk Knights a long time ago. It was also largely due to his judgment in this battle, Lu
Li'an's army didn't stand a chance.
This is a war doomed to fail.
Ten thousand years ago, demons invaded the God-given continent, causing a disaster that is chilling to this day. At that time, humans and all major intelligent races united, and the super strong ones came out in force. They paid an extremely heavy price.
The price was paid to drive the devil back into the abyss.
But this time, it was also the invasion of demons, but human strength was not even one percent of what it was before.
Lulian was originally the weakest military force among the four provinces of the five principalities of the empire. In addition, it had been invaded by the Fei Lie Empire before, and it was already exhausted after two years of war. Even after the war, Adolf recruited a large number of strong men and expanded the army.
Even though these Lulian soldiers, who had gone through the baptism of war, indeed broke out with surprising combat effectiveness, the gap in strength was still too huge.
With Lulian's current strength, it is impossible to prevent the demonic invasion. And the reinforcements mobilized by the empire are still on their way here. Water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the near. By the time they arrive, I am afraid that the Blood Sacrifice Passage will have evolved into the Gate of Hell.
Now. What they will face will be an even larger army of demons.
By then, where will the reinforcements come from?
There are ten times and a hundred times more demons than now, and they will flood Lulian like a flood. Coupled with the emergence of level 12 demons and even level 13 demons, not to mention the Southern Province, let alone the Saint Solan Empire, even if the human three
If the great empires unite, it will probably not help.
Because of this, Stevenson chose to refuse to carry out the royal decree at this time, which was tantamount to actually betraying the Archduke Reno.
He didn't want to risk his life with Adolf.
On the contrary, if he saved this team in this doomed war, then he would have done a great job in front of Donald.
As for the situation of mankind at that time and how to deal with demons, that was not something he considered. It wasn't that he didn't want to think about it, but it was useless to think about it. It was like a person who saw that the embankment was about to collapse and could only run away to save his life.
, what else can he do? Should he rush forward and die?
When the sky falls, there will naturally be something higher to support it.
Thinking of this, Stevenson's heart skipped a beat. He said to Alessia: "Your Highness, why are you here?"
"It doesn't matter why I came," Aleshia pointed at Stevenson and turned around, becoming even more angry. "Mr. Stevenson, please answer my question. Could it be that Duke Renault gave this to you?"
An order?"
"Grand Duke Renault? Of course not." Stevenson smiled faintly, turned to several confidants beside him and said, "His Royal Highness has a body of millions of dollars and should not be easily involved in danger. Come, protect the princess..."
"Yes!" Eight Tomahawk Knights rode over and surrounded Alessia and Susan in the middle.
"Stevenson!" Susan pressed her hand on the hilt of the sword and said angrily, "What do you want to do? Let your people leave immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Huh? Why is there such a fuss?" Watts interjected with a surprised look on his face, "Miss Susan, Your Highness, and Mr. Stevenson also have good intentions. You see, now the devil has an absolute advantage, and no one can
We don’t know when they will break through the defense line. If you get injured, we can’t explain it.”
"I don't need you to explain to anyone," Alessia said, "I just need you to tell me why you are standing still?!"
"Your Highness," Stevenson frowned, "do you think this is a question? I didn't answer you because I didn't want to embarrass you."
"What do you mean?" Susan stepped forward and asked.
"What Stevenson means is that you have nothing to do with the princess!" Old Barno said with cold eyes, "Combat command is the authority of the military commander. Although your status is noble, princess, you have no right to interfere."
"You..." Susan cast her angry gaze at Old Barno.
She was about to speak, but was interrupted by Watts' soft and cold voice, "The Marquis of Barno is right. The empire has been established for hundreds of years and has laws and rules. Political and military affairs are naturally handled by ministers and military generals.
No one is allowed to point fingers. Otherwise..."
He raised his eyebrows, with a trace of ridicule on his face: "Any kitten or puppy comes here and talks to you and me on the basis of their status. Isn't it a mess?"
"You are so presumptuous!" Susan was already extremely angry.
As Susan's battle ring vibrated, the long sword was unsheathed. A dozen griffin knights and those battle ax knights around him also started to move.
