Chapter 268: War Comes
In fact, Arthur's idea was born more because he wanted to compare it with Harry.
Harry is the eldest prince of the Miqi country, and his status is extremely noble. And Arthur and Harry got acquainted because they were both students of the national military academy. It's just that the two people of the same age, but it seems that they have formed a grudge in their previous lives, since the school period, the two have formed a lot of bonds, and there have been many contradictions, and the two people who are also strong in blood have always refused to give in to each other.
For this thorn in the side, Arthur has long wanted to show off in public and shine, preferably to an unbeatable height, so as to completely suppress Prince Harry's scenery and frustrate his spirit.
The butler has followed Arthur for many years, and of course he is clear about the contradictions between Arthur and Harry. But he will not dissuade or prevent Arthur from comparing his behavior with Harry, as he usually reminds and regulates Arthur's behavior. In the housekeeper's opinion, Arthur is still very young after all, as long as his behavior is not too excessive, so as not to ruin the reputation and status of the Arthur family, it doesn't hurt to show some sharpness, that is the characteristic that young people should have.
When Leon returned to Rénia, Yi Xingchen had officially signed up to participate in the election of members of the National Assembly of Rénia.
There are two ways to run for parliament in Rénia, the first is a party candidate and the other is an independent candidate. The former requires the support of political parties, while the latter requires a sufficient number of regional votes.
Because Yi Xingchen owns a large winery, the votes of local employees in it are enough to support him to qualify as an independent candidate. Therefore, Yi Xingchen became one of the candidates very smoothly. Participate in the campaign.
Yi Xingchen asked the winery's consultant. The opinion of Kawa Kaisa, a former diplomat in the United States. It was agreed that Tari would be in charge of the campaign, and that he would be in charge of the campaign. And, shortly after becoming a candidate, Yi Xingchen allocated 1 million euros as a campaign start-up fund.
And Tari doesn't seem to be reconciled, just acting as an assistant to a business owner, so he is very enthusiastic to take over the management of Yi Xingchen's campaign. Assisting Yi Xingchen in the election, busy before and after, making suggestions, it is no exaggeration to say that he is even more nervous than Yi Xingchen, the candidate. Obviously, Tari wanted to help Yi Xingchen succeed in one fell swoop.
Therefore, with Zhang Luo in the tower, Yi Xingchen's campaign is particularly relaxed. After that, Yi Xingchen participated in a campaign speech. He expressed his campaign platform in the press and never came forward again. Leave it entirely to Tari. And Yi Xingchen's own focus is the Xilin region of Xinghua Kingdom in the Firmament Continent.
"Your Majesty, the Intelligence Bureau has confirmed that the King of Dongli has gathered an army of 100,000 and rushed towards Xilin City. Within three days, the Dongli army will arrive at the foot of Xilin City......"
Yi Xingchen listened to the reports of Sheehan and other Xinghua officials.
Since the occupation of the Xilin region, Xinghua has gained great benefits, both in terms of population and resources. In Xinghua Kingdom, no one is willing to give up the Xilin region.
"How's the Royal Legion expanding?" Yi Xingchen asked.
Alan stood up and replied, "After strict screening, five hundred slave soldiers were selected to form the Second Legion of the Xinghua Royal. They are already equipped with Blue Mercury's weaponry. ”
Compared to the recruits in the Xilin area, the Xinghua officials apparently believed in slave soldiers who had been trained and educated for a long time. At the same time, in order to ensure the superiority of the ruling class of Xinghua State, all the Xinghua soldiers of the First Royal Legion were upgraded and replaced with rifles with submachine guns, while the slave soldiers of the Second Royal Army were equipped with rifles, and the officers must be nationals of Xinghua State.
As for the Royal Affiliated Legion of Xilin City, which Leon was in charge of, under the instruction of Yi Xingchen, they obtained two hundred rifles, as well as sufficient ammunition, as well as a large number of scimitars and spear guns, which were the main defensive force of Xilin City.
After listening to the various intelligence analyses of the kingdom officials, Yi Xingchen issued an order.
"Order: Zhao Jin and Zhao Hu led the First Army of the Xilin City Guard, and Bi Shishi led the Second Army of Xilin City to carry out raid tactics in the Xilin area, focusing on attacking the logistics supply of the East Departure Country, and attacking the minority shareholders from the target. ”
"Order: Muen and Leon hold on to Xilin City for a month, waiting for reinforcements. ”
"Order: The First Royal Legion, the Second Royal Legion, and the First Legion of the Kingdom are assembled and ready to go to the battlefield at any time. The second legion of the kingdom stayed in Xinghua City. ”
"Gentlemen, the future of Xinghua Kingdom will rise in our hands or fall and become the dust of history, it depends on the outcome of this battle!
"Wait for the death and go all out!" everyone knelt on one knee and said in unison.
Listening to everyone's voices, for a while, Yi Xingchen's heart was also full of confidence in victory.
In the Xilin area, Lijiazhuang, a group of eastward cavalry rushed into the village.
In the middle of the sound, there was billowing smoke in Lijiazhuang.
Not far away, an army from the east passed by the edge of the ruined Lijiazhuang.
"According to the report, Lijiazhuang was slaughtered by the army of the Eastern Departure Country, and 120 families were slaughtered. ”
"Report, the king of Dongli announced that the people of the Xilin region who were thieves were all reduced to slaves!"
……
All kinds of news came to the City Lord's Mansion of Xilin City one after another. Muen, Leon and the others became more and more ugly.
"My lord, if we don't think of a way, I'm afraid the people will panic and dare not resist, and we will lose the hearts of the people. Zhao Jin said anxiously.
"We must preach all this information to the people of all the Xilin region, and tell them that the king of Dongli has not only abandoned them, but is ready to take everything from them. Mu En thought for a while and said, "Only in this way can the people of Xilin recognize the reality." ”
"We still have to grasp the public opinion in Xilin City! From now on, when military control is implemented, there can only be one voice in Xilin City, which will come out to condemn the atrocities and despicability of the Dongli Army, and also exaggerate the strength of the Xinghua Army!" Leon said. He had been in Blue Mercury for a short time and knew the importance of public opinion.
Muen nodded, agreeing with Leon's opinion.
"In addition, I think that the families of the soldiers in the army should also be sent into the city and sent people to protect their safety. Zhao Jin proposed.
Mu Enlyon was stunned when he heard this, although Zhao Jin's proposal was suspected of coercing the soldiers to fight hard, it was a good way to stabilize the morale of the army.
"When it is extraordinary, do extraordinary things, I agree with Zhao Jin's proposal. Bi Shi said.
Then, they discussed the defensive tactics of Xilin City.
After a while, an order from His Majesty the King of Xinghua Kingdom was sent to the City Lord's Mansion of Xilin City.
Mu En and the others decided to follow the king's order and hold on to Xilin City for a month, waiting for reinforcements. Zhao Jin, Zhao Hu, and Bi Shishi also hurriedly led their troops out of Xilin City, hiding first, and then attacking the logistics supply line of Dongli Country. (To be continued......)
