Chapter 35: Gathering the Stars

Among the imperial armies, in terms of pure combat power, the Northern Federation’s legions are the most powerful. However, if we talk about which army has the most talented people? Which army has the most polite gentlemen? Which army has the most talented people?

Who has the most versatile talents? In these aspects, if the Colorful Dragon Knights defending Gyeonggi consider themselves second, then absolutely no army would dare to stand up and say that they are first.

More than 95% of the officers of the Colorful Dragon Knights and more than 80% of the soldiers have the title of imperial nobility. An adult noble once exaggeratedly said: "If the meteor shower destroyed the entire camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights at night, then Amy Empire Nine

Nobles of age and above need to hang a white mourning ribbon in front of their door." Chi Hanfeng, a young man who was still a viscount at the time, was also present. He answered coldly: "Do you think that at night, there will be people in the camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights?

Are there any soldiers?"

From an objective point of view, before Chi Hanfeng officially took over the Colorful Dragon Knights, the camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights was indeed very empty at night. Most of these descendants of the empire's aristocratic families were active in the dances and banquets held by the empire every day.

The knight uniform is undoubtedly the most powerful weapon to impress an innocent girl.

Of course, in terms of pure combat power, the Colorful Dragon Knights also have a superb level. The Amy Empire was founded by force, and the military honors and awards were so high that civilian officials could not expect. The nobles of the empire all highly value force.

In the previous battles that the knights participated in, there were many cases where a full knight squad of 350 people only had more than 10 knights left after several charges. These more than 10 traumatized knights would gather again and launch a final attack.

Honor is definitely higher than life. This kind of noble chivalry is hard to see in other troops.

——"War of the Gods·Excellent Knights"

※※※

The yellow dragon knight's voice still echoed in the sky, and after a brief silence, the crowd at the south gate of the imperial capital suddenly became excited.

Drums, trumpets, bagpipes... almost all the musical instruments that can appear in the imperial army are taken out from the backs of each knight like magic, and they can only be enjoyed when the expeditionary force returns from the expedition with a great victory."

The "Imperial Victory March" immediately echoed across the snowy sky and earth.

Then, from the periphery of the crowd, two troops of light-armored knights flew in unison and trotted along both sides of the mainland highway.

The horse is a pure carmine red tall horse with its head raised high. Its white breath is particularly conspicuous in the cold winter. Its bright red velvet cape trembles luxuriously in the snow, and its red bells make a sweet sound as the horse trots.

the sound of.

The knight is a knight in pure black iron armor. The same plate-leaf armor is embossed or debossed with different family emblems. The three rows of knights in the front are playing bagpipes, and the knights in the back row are beating their saddles.

The small drum is on the horse, and the reins are scattered on the saddle.

The soft, smooth and extremely rhythmic victory march commanded the knights and mounts behind to perform exactly the same movements.

During the trot, the rouge horse lifted its four hooves gently and stretched to the beat of the drum. The horse's hooves seemed to pause deliberately in the air, and the strong and powerful muscles slid smoothly - these horses did not seem to be running, but like dancing.

...More accurately, their four-footed hooves are accompaniment to bagpipes and snare drums.

The knight on horseback followed the rouge horse running like a dragonfly. The 2.74-meter-long knight's gun made various movements neatly in the sky, and the sharp tip of the gun emitted a dazzling light.

From the end of the team, every 3 meters, a knight reined in his mount. When the knight at the front took out a bagpipe from his mouth and saluted the small mercenary group, a neat welcome guard of honor appeared on both sides of the mainland highway.

"Everyone, turn left, turn right!" The captain of the knight squadron gave the order with all his strength. All the knights drove their mounts, facing the mainland highway, pointing their spears at the sky. Apart from breathing heavily, the horses and people seemed to be in an instant.

It turned into a solidified statue. As the small mercenary group advanced to the front of a row of knights, the knights on the left and right lowered their heads deeply, and waved their right hands extremely powerfully to their left chest. The red helmet feathers were on

Blossoming in the wind...

Amy, Long, Mo Ye and others all showed wry smiles. They did not expect that such a large formation was really for the small mercenary group. This... this grand ceremony of the Red Stone Emperor was too unexpected.

Long also saw a similar scene many years ago. That was when the imperial army achieved great success near the boundary forest and annihilated in one fell swoop a group of horse thieves who had been causing harm to the imperial border and the Holy Church for a long time. The army that went out at that time was none other than Colorful

The Dragon Knights, in terms of scale of welcome, this time is not a little bit bigger than that one.

2000 meters is not very far, but for the children of the small mercenary group at this time, it is extremely far away - with every step closer, you can clearly feel that the three colorful buildings are taller;

The crowd was already cheering. If it weren't for the knights maintaining order, the crowd would have rushed forward. Someone in the crowd could be heard shouting from a distance: "Well done, little mercenary group!"; there were countless others.

The girl was wearing a colorful dress, her excited face was blushing in the cold wind... The hearts of the teenagers were beating faster and faster to the smooth bagpipe rhythm.

Different groups of people walked down the white jade platform under the three colorful buildings. In the middle, there was the Imperial King Hongshi. On the left of the Redstone Emperor was the Imperial Marshal Chi Datong. Behind the marshal stood two completely different temperaments.

The black-clothed boy, and outside the black-clothed boy was a dwarf boy wearing brown leather armor. The eyes of all the small mercenary group were hot, Da Qingshan, Chi Aotian, Horns... There were more than 20 people behind the marshal.

Imperial officers, look at the logo on the top of their hats. The lowest rank is the active captain of the Imperial Army; to the right of Emperor Redstone is Bode Delaware, who has just been promoted from Imperial Minister of State to Imperial Deputy Prime Minister. Behind the Deputy Prime Minister is

The same number of imperial civil officials, imperial ministers of state, imperial foreign ministers, imperial ministers of civil affairs... Imperial civilian ministers must wear imperial aristocratic attire in public, with mainly gold, silver, and red tassels that reflect the dazzling light.

There are many rumors among the high-rise buildings of the empire regarding the promotion of Marquis Bode of Delaware. Among them, a considerable number of nobles and soldiers agree that the Chi family has become the biggest beneficiary due to the large-scale invasion of foreign races.

The eldest son of the marshal, Imperial Tongyunhou Chi Hantong, was appointed as the chief of the imperial defense zone.

He was transferred to the commander-in-chief of the second-line corps in Southern Xinjiang of the Empire. With the tragic victory in the Lion River Defense Zone of the Empire, it was only a matter of time before His Excellency the Marquis took over all combat command in Southern Xinjiang - and this time has already begun to be measured in hours, which means that the four major forces of the Empire

The Fire Lion Legion, one of the main forces, will be loyal to Chimen in the near future; when Chi Hantong was transferred to the second-line corps, the Imperial Military Department did not send a new commander to the Jielin Defense Zone. Chi Changyun, the 22-year-old eldest son of the Marquis (

By default, Viscount Xiaoyue succeeded his father and became the youngest acting defense commander in the empire. He also took over the remaining army of the Black Dragon Knights, one of the four main forces in the empire.

Prior to this, neither the soldiers nor the nobles of the empire were optimistic about the second son of the marshal, a scoundrel who had insulted the honor of the nobles. What they did not expect was that when this scoundrel reappeared in people's sight after being missing for many years, he not only gained

With the absolute trust of Emperor Hongshi, after he became the commander of the Imperial Gyeonggi Defense Zone, in just three years, while desperately searching for money, he managed to organize the soldiers in the defense zone extremely well. Even the Colorful Dragon Knight, the most difficult to manage in the imperial army,

The regiment's 28,000 troops were also full of praise for the Earl's abilities.

At the beginning, some nobles from hostile forces thought that he was a "rogue" who used his power to win people's hearts, etc. However, as time went by, after some stories about the early days of His Majesty's taking office were gradually revealed, everyone kept their mouths shut.

——According to rumors, after Chi Hanfeng entered the Seven Colorful Dragon Knights camp for the first time, he accepted the challenges of 12 noble knights on the same day, and the outcome was without exception. There are more high-ranking nobles in the Colorful Dragon Knights than ants.

In the army, the strength surpasses all false reputations. On that day, 28,000 noble heads of the Colorful Dragon Knights paid allegiance to the black dragon flag of Chimen. Not long ago, the earl went to the northern federation of the empire where he served the longest, and will lead 15,000 of the empire's most elite

The tiger and wolf divisions returned to defend the empire.

Now, the youngest of the only five A-level mercenary regiments in Pan-Continent, the regiment leader Amy, the deputy regiments Da Qingshan, Chi Aotian, etc. are all direct descendants of Chimen...

The number of the empire's four elite troops accounts for 40% of the empire's regular troops, and the most conservative estimate of combat power in the empire's regular army is 70%. The four elites, three major defense zones, and an A-level mercenary group are all loyal to one of the empire's factions.

, and this does not count the other disciples of the Chi family in the army. This phenomenon may not be unprecedented, but it is definitely unprecedented. It is undoubtedly an unstable factor for the empire - at least some people think so.

It is well known that the Marquis of Delaware, who is also one of the three most famous families in the empire, has an inextricable quarrel with the Chi family. Historically, the Delaware family has the same title as the Chi family, and they are both in the sixth year of the founding of the empire.

One of the Grand Dukes. However, starting from the first generation of the family, the previous family owners suddenly lost their luck on the battlefield, and even lost the battles continuously, and finally lost the title of Duke. Originally, the family was very optimistic about the Marquis de Delaware, and there was no

What comes to mind is that the young man in his prime was crippled by Chi Hanfeng and never had a chance to serve in the military again.

According to imperial practice, the two chiefs of the empire: the imperial prime minister and the imperial military chief must be from the military, and must have a title of marshal or above. The Marquis de Bode, who has no military merit, missed the core of the empire's power. In this case, promotion

The Marquis de Delaware, who does not have the title of marshal, may be able to balance the overly concentrated imperial power, or at least make some gossip disappear.

Of course, none of the small mercenary group who had just returned to the imperial capital knew that they and their illustrious military exploits had been placed on one end of the scale as an extremely heavy weight.

Under the colorful building on the right, it is composed of four colors: white, blue, red, and black. The owners of each color are at least 50 years old. The white one is a priest, the blue one is a neutral mage, and the red one is a neutral mage.

They are holy mage, and the black one is the dark mage... The symbol jumping on the chest of each mage shows that the lowest level among them is a first-level mage. There are two people walking in the front, one of whom has the symbol of the magister clearly marked on his chest.

The other one is a great magician...

Under the colorful building on the left, there are more people and more colors, ranging in age from their 20s to 70s and 80s. Amy has good eyes and can tell their identities at a glance from a distance.

——The head of the Imperial Mercenary Union and the head of the A and B-level mercenary groups registered in the Empire. Some of them have also interacted with each other.

Amy, Barbas, Long, Mo Ye, Lei Ge and others led the small mercenary group to quicken their pace, and people from four different directions gathered under the colorful building.

Da Qingshan, Chi Aotian, and Horns stepped out from behind the marshal and joined the cadres of the small mercenary group from one side. According to the imperial military service laws and the mercenary seal, the mercenary group is in the country where it is registered.

It is a legal combat organization, and its due ranking is as follows: Imperial Knights, Imperial Regular Army, Imperial Mercenary Group, Imperial Swordsman Battalion, Noble Private Legion, Imperial Reserve Soldiers, and noble fiefs should recruit more farmers. In a strict sense,

The mercenary regiment is a branch of the empire's active military.

The regulations of the Empire's active military personnel stipulate that active duty soldiers should pay military courtesy to the King of the Empire in non-chambers, instead of curtsying on the right side. Under Amy's leadership, all the mercenaries of the small mercenary group placed their right hands on their left chests and buried them deeply.

Head.

"Your Majesty the King, in accordance with the duties of mercenaries to defend the territory, the Empire's A-level small mercenary group will complete the 10-day mission of mercenaries to defend the territory from February 22nd in the fall of the 4th year of the magic calendar to March 2nd in the autumn of the 4th year of the magic calendar.

The siege returned to the imperial capital. During the 10-day defense, a total of 1,257 enemies were killed and corpses were counted. Among them, four enemy flags of a thousand-man regiment were captured, and 68 people were captured. Among them, 53 prisoners were stranded in Lion Heart City due to injuries.

, 15 werewolf prisoners accompanied the team. The small mercenary group participated in the battle with 623 mercenaries, 176 were killed and 384 were injured..." Amy's tone gradually became lower.

Amy and the other four people had stayed in the imperial capital for two years and often went to various social occasions. In the imperial superstructure, it was well known that the young Amy was definitely not a deep person. Most people who had been in contact with him knew that

This is a boy who is extremely happy at all times. Of course, some people who are more familiar with him know that this boy has an extremely humorous and unusual side. This kind of sad tone should not come from this boy.

The Red Stone Emperor crossed the distance that should be observed between monarchs and ministers, took two steps, patted Amy slowly on the shoulder, turned around and led the imperial officials back to the white jade platform under the colorful building.

The emcee announced loudly:

"The small mercenary group offers prisoners and trophies——"

15 werewolves were pushed by the little mercenaries to the audience. Then, two of the eight little mercenaries unfurled a battle flag, and Fanos's four thousand-man team battle flags unfolded in the wind. Amy walked slowly

He came on stage with a purple-red sword in his hand.

"Dear Your Majesty the King, when the small mercenary group completed its mission in southern Xinjiang, by chance, they obtained a divine sword - Suzaku, which was forged by the God of Creation in the Divine Barrier. The color of this long sword happened to match the color of the sword.

Your Majesty has the same title, so I hereby donate it to His Majesty the King."

Hongshi and the ministers around him were shocked when they heard the words. Forged by the God of Creation himself? For a warrior, what he hopes for most is a weapon of excellent quality. Generally speaking, if you get a weapon personally crafted by a famous craftsman in human history,

It already requires an extremely rare opportunity; if you have a good enough background, you may be able to obtain a weapon made by a dwarf master from your family. If you obtain such a weapon, if you do not have enough strength, you need to be careful.

, being targeted by thieves is still a trivial matter, it is too common for ordinary people to be blameless and bear the responsibility. Of course, if you have the strength of the dwarf Old Locke, you don’t have to worry; in addition to these eye-catching magic weapons

, in ancient oral traditions, the gods also used heavenly fire to create artifacts. The sharpness of this weapon is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and it is only possible to have such weapons in the inner treasury of the empire or in the cave of an ancient dragon.

Weapons.

Created by the God of Creation himself? Does the Father of the Gods really exist? Isn’t such a weapon built on an artifact?

The Red Stone Emperor leaned over and took the Suzaku sword from Amy's hand. He pulled the hilt of the sword with one hand and pushed the scabbard with one hand. A red lightning seemed to fall from the sky and the earth. The two blades of the long sword that was taken out of the sheath trembled slightly, and the sword was flowing.

The purple-red molten iron, although it was already a cold winter with heavy snowfall, and although I had been mentally prepared, all the eyes around me were heated by the light of the long sword...

The Red Stone Emperor was also stunned for a moment, and then signaled the guards around him to pull out his silver sword. The red thunderbolt flashed in the air and disappeared immediately. The guards watched distressedly as the front end of the sword in his hand fell to the ground - everyone present

As you know, the long swords of His Majesty the King's guards are all issued by the empire. At least they are hand-made by contemporary master forgers, and without exception, rare metals are added to them.

No one doubts anymore whether the long sword is really the masterpiece of the God of Creation.

Looking at the shining long sword, Hong Shi shook his head lightly. His voice was not very loud, but everyone present could hear it in the silence: "Good sword, but even better, little mercenary."

Most of the group can return safely. I feel relieved."

An invisible heat wave instantly covered the teenagers in the small mercenary group, and many teenagers in the back row burst into tears.

As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice sounded: "If your Majesty is really serious, send some reinforcements earlier -"

The voice suddenly changed: "Maybe Xiaodou and the other 175 boys and girls can return safely..."

Again, the words were not loud, but everyone around them heard them. Everyone's expressions changed. It was extremely rare for people who dared to contradict the emperor face to face, but the consequences were well known to everyone.
