1047, Empress of Light
For three days after the end of the Demigod War, the Barcelona people did not launch an effective attack on the city of St. Petersburg.
In order to prevent the sneak attack of the Zenit masters, around the Barcelona camp, the demigod-level masters have also arranged the fist spirit imprint void formation, and the major camps have arranged guardian magic arrays, and all kinds of magic light and flames flicker, releasing a powerful aura of power.
As time passed, so did the number of Barcelona troops outside the city.
As one of the main tasks of the second prince and one of the main tasks, Granero was entrusted with the important task of being one of the main responsible persons in charge of the city defense, and he was under the enemy towers at the four gates of the imperial capital every day, and by the evening of the third day, the number of enemies was initially estimated to have reached about 300,000.
"The good news is that in the Western Regions Continent, the Barcelona people have suffered a counterattack from the big rival Real Madrid Empire, and the situation is not advantageous, and the elves who appeared in the Western Regions Continent have not been restless recently, and there have been abnormal movements, so the Barcelona people can't divide more forces to invade Zenit, Leo Messi, who is known as the first young supreme in the mainland, has no time to come to the Northern Regions, otherwise, St. Petersburg will be really dangerous!"
Thinking back to the information he had received in the past few days from the army and from all sides, Granero relaxed a little.
Watching the blood-like sunset in the distance slowly disappear into the mountains, the arrival of the night gave the soldiers defending the city more depression, although the people of Barcelona have died down for three consecutive days, but everyone knows that this is just the last quiet before the storm comes, once the next wave of war starts, it will be an endless situation.
Granero was about to leave the city walls, when suddenly there was a commotion and lights in the distance from the west gate.
"What's going on?" Granero was shocked.
Immediately, the elite soldiers of the Imperial Capital Security Office went to investigate, and after a while, the soldiers returned, kneeling on one knee and reported: "My lord, His Royal Highness Christo, the Fourth Prince, was ordered to replace the original commander of the West City Gate, General Di Santo, and at this time the defense affairs are being settled.
"The Fourth Prince has taken over the defense of the West City Gate, how is this possible?"
Granero wondered.
In today's imperial capital, even the beggars on the side of the road know that the fourth prince is an embroidered pillow with a belly of hay, keen on fighting for power and profit, self-esteem, proud and arrogant, but there is no knowledge of people, when the ten imperial coalition forces invaded Zenit, they got the opportunity to lead an army alone, but unfortunately they were defeated in the battlefield of southern Xinjiang, and since then they have lost the favor of Emperor Yaxin, and they have basically been beaten into the cold palace and become a useless idler prince.
Such a mediocre talent, at this time, actually got the right to supervise the defense of the city wall?
Could it be that the military department and His Majesty Yashin are confused?
This time it is facing the Barcelona Empire, which is known as the first military power in the mainland, how important is the defense of the city wall, even those elite generals of the empire who have been on the battlefield for a long time, standing on the city wall, they have to tremble, and they will not disarm at night, and put a straw bag like the four princes to guard the city, in case of a mistake and being caught by the Barcelona people, the entire imperial capital will be turned into hell because of this, and tens of millions of people will become ghosts.
"Let's go, go and see this Highness. ”
Granero is a celebrity in front of the second prince Dominguez, and it is understandable that he will not buy the account of the fourth prince, but after a little thought, he still decided to go over and take a look.
This thing is really weird.
......
Imperial Palace.
Emperor's Hall.
"Your Majesty, do you really rest assured that the Fourth Highness will go down to guard the West City Gate?"
Dressed in black tight-fitting armor, with eyebrows like knives, and a burly figure, the Grand Knight Chief of the Knight Palace, Akinfeev, stood in place like a javelin, and his eyes flashed with confusion.
The head of the main hall.
Dressed in a white royal robe, Emperor Yashin looked at the map of the empire's territory hanging on the wall, on which there was a piece of about a quarter of the entire empire's territory, which had been marked bright red, and it was the southern frontier that had been invaded by the Barcelonans.
After staring at the map quietly for three or four minutes, he sighed faintly, slowly turned around, looked at Akinfeev, and replied, "Igor, how long have you been following me?"
Akinfeev didn't have to think at all: "It's been fifty-six years, seven months and twenty-nine days. From the time when His Majesty was a prince of a first-class vassal country, I was a companion by His Majesty's side. ”
"Yes, fifty-six years, seven months and twenty-nine days, I want to look back and look at it again, such a long time, like a blink of an eye, will pass quickly......" Emperor Yashin rarely showed a little vicissitudes of life: "I still remember the beginning, and you, as well as the Dumbiya brothers, the Zagoev brothers, the Sidi brothers, There are a total of nine Zagormo brothers, they are like brothers and sisters, they have practiced martial arts together, studied together, fought together when they grew up, killed enemies together, and the world said that I Yashin the Great single-handedly conquered the territory of Zenit, but they didn't know that if it weren't for the support of your eight brothers with different surnames, how could there be today's Zenit Empire?"
"Your Majesty is invincible in the sky, the Northern Regions are invincible, and I and Dunbia are proud to follow Your Majesty and fight side by side. Recalling the golden years of the past, Akinfeev couldn't help but sigh with emotion, but unfortunately, those brothers who were like brothers and sisters are now buried under the cold tombstones.
"Fifty-six years have passed, and they have all shed the last drop of blood for the empire, and have returned to the arms of the stars. Emperor Yaxin sighed and said: "Only you are still by my side, since you were a child, you are very much like me, and you are also the most outstanding of my eight companions, over the years, I trust you more than the son of the newcomer I, you are in charge of the knight's hall, responsible for supervising the hundred officials and nobles of the empire, and you have contributed a lot." ”
"I am willing to serve Your Majesty. Akinfeev did not show the slightest credit.
"Today I will only talk about the past, don't be so restrictive. Emperor Yashin pointed to his chair and said, "Igor, sit down and talk to me, twenty years ago, Julie died and my third son disappeared, and I ...... I also almost fell because of that incident, in order to recover my strength, I basically practiced all the time, and I haven't had a chance to sit down with you for a long time and talk about the past. ”
Akinfeev didn't know what to say, Empress Julie was the only woman who had been loved by Emperor Yashin in his life, since she was a childhood sweetheart, she grew up with Emperor Yashin and himself and other eight companion students, that is definitely a peerless and intelligent woman, although everyone secretly likes this strange woman, but only a once-in-a-century genius like Emperor Yashin can be worthy of her.
It was originally a beautiful story of heroes and beauties, but for a long time after marriage, Emperor Yaxin and Empress Julie have always been close to each other, harmonious and harmonious, and Julie is kind and gentle, treating her ministers well, and has won the support of all the upper nobles and lower commoners, and is known as the [Queen of Light].
She only gave birth to one son for Emperor Yaxin in her life, and she was the third prince.
Unfortunately, shortly after giving birth, a great change took place in the empire, Emperor Yashin fell from the peak of his heyday, almost fell, and Empress Julie also died, and the only prince also disappeared in this terrible change, and there was no trace of him.
This matter has always been a scar and heart disease in the heart of Emperor Yashin.
