Chapter 5 The Eastern Capital Changes

The stars and the moon are dark. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The camp of the Carlos Army was plunged into endless darkness, as if swallowed by the beasts of the night.

The light of the campfires and the torches of the soldiers on patrol seemed so faint that it was only a little light in the night, and it flickered in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any moment by the cold autumn wind—not only did it not illuminate the thick darkness in the hearts of the soldiers who were far from their homeland, but created a deep and mysterious atmosphere......

Inside the tent. Carlos paced back and forth irritably, pausing from time to time to glance at the eight-hundred-mile urgent royal edict in his hand by the dim candlelight.

Chief of Staff Sanchez sat on a tiger skin bench leaning back in his chair and quietly stared at his boss - how many years! I've never seen him so manic and restless...... No matter how difficult the scenes, unpredictable variables and treacherous battle situations were faced, this peerless general and conductor who never failed on the battlefield always sat proudly on horseback, commanded steadfastly, and calmly stretched out the hands of the musicians who played the scales of the battlefield to direct the war in the direction he dominated...... Now, this great man is like a cheetah that finally bites its prey after a lot of hard pursuit, but suddenly becomes extremely angry when the prey in his hand escapes.

Carlos finally sat heavily on the handsome chair, but suddenly slammed the table, and said in a voice full of unwillingness, excitement, and indignation: "Why?!" Why did Your Majesty send such an edict at this time?! Just give me a little more time -- ten days...... No, just a week! The pattern of the entire Southern Continent will be completely rewritten because of Ben Shuai's hands...... Is this providential? Is it the death of our country? Why...... It's just a step away...... Your Majesty mistook me ......"

Only then did Sánchez calmly say: "What will you do with Your Majesty's urgent edict - Marshal?" ”

Carlos bit his pale lip tightly, and when blood oozed from his bitten lower lip, he spat out two words from his mouth: "Obey!" ”

Sanchez turned his regretful gaze to his coach - the tall back of the sky, but at this time he became so lonely and lonely, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and wanted to say something comforting, but he only let out a long sigh and said coldly: "History has its own inevitable direction of progress, which cannot be reversed by man...... As the marshal said, this is providential...... Perhaps, this is the path chosen by the marshal himself......"

After speaking, he silently bowed and withdrew from the account.

After Sanchez left, Carlos's expression became extremely gloomy and helpless, and he reached out to take an unopened bottle of spirits, knocked on the cap suddenly, stared at the bottle in his hand and said to himself: "I, Carlos, have been all my life, but I have no soulmate, maybe only you...... And Alexander...... Alexander the Great, the giant who turns the wheels of history - what kind of future will you bring to the land of St. Lun......"

Then he craned his neck and drank it all, and suddenly bent over and coughed violently—the mixture that had choked out of Carlos's mouth and spilled all over the ground contained blood and wine, but it was generally shockingly crimson......

At dawn, the morning dew stained the clothes, and the sky was gray. Eastern Capital East Palace.

I woke up in the morning, sat by the window, and flipped through a copy of the Geography of Donggamont. In the past few days, I have always felt restless, I can't sleep well at night, and I wake up from nightmares early in the morning.

When I woke up, I saw that Vivian, Liuli, and Deyisi were still sleeping sweetly, knowing that they were too tired these days, so I didn't wake them up, I got up by myself, went to the side hall and opened the window, so that the cold morning breeze blew in, but I saw that the garden outside the window was misty, and there was no scenery to see, so I picked up the vampire count and "stolen" the geographical chronicle from the Eastern Capital Library for a rare morning reading.

Derlink Ambrose, a quirky vampire girl, loves to read and steal more. It's not that she doesn't have the money to buy books - with her "cyan streamer" commander and Imperial Count's fortune, it's not difficult to move the books of the whole city to her home, but she prefers to use stolen ones, according to Drink, "The process of stealing books is a pleasure, the feeling of being sneaky and worried about being found is very exciting, and the thrill of success after stealing books is indescribable!" "But there was a time when Drinker's stealing skills were so clumsy that the reason he tried and tested was because the librarian knew that she was an important minister of the Empire, and he didn't dare to offend this terrible vampire, so he had to open his eyes and close his eyes.

Later, he was finally caught red-handed by Whitman Dayze, the director of the Imperial Capital Library and a famous scholar, in front of everyone. This matter was hyped up in the imperial capital, and became a joke after people's tea and dinner, and was called "the ten alien acts of the vampire count". Drink, on the other hand, regarded it as one of the seven shames of his life, and secretly hated Whitman, vowing to be ashamed, so he grabbed Luo Bai and forced him to teach him the art of stealing, and then heard that the Imperial Capital Library had lost several precious books in a row, and the vampire Earl never missed it since. I couldn't help but laugh at the thought of Drink's weird hobby, and set my eyes on the book she had stolen.

The author is knowledgeable, incisive in argumentation, and explains in simple terms, and the original boring content is narrated in a beautiful and elegant, vivid language, and humorous metaphors are added from time to time, and it is quite interesting to read, full of interest. Curious, I was moved to know the author's name, so I turned to the cover and saw that it read: "Sheffield was written in the Holy Lun calendar in 1898". Sheffield, a continental traveler who had gained fame in recent years, was said to be a young woman, and the author who could write such a good geography was by no means mediocre, and I had the idea of a female traveler for a moment—and if Drinker knew what I was thinking, she would have pouted disdainfully and sneered: "Because she's a woman, right?" Dead perverts! ”

At this time, I flipped through the pages, but I turned to the chapter "Yuyan", and my heart moved, and I began to read carefully, and the originally vague concepts in my mind gradually became clear......

Just as I was indulging in books, a pair of warm jade hands gently pressed against my face from behind, and Qing Yue's soft voice sounded in my ears: "Alex, you got up so early?" What are you looking at? What a sense of leisure! ”

I put the book on the table, grabbed the soft pair with my free hands, took her delicate body into my arms, and said, "It's Belle, why don't you sleep more?" ”

"I've slept enough, but it's Sister Vivien and Sister Ruri, who were tired yesterday and are still asleep...... Alex, what book did you read earlier? So good-looking? Fascinate you so much - let me see it too! Dai Yi said softly, her head pressed against my ear, exhaling like an orchid, and a pair of jade hands reached into my nightgown, gently rubbing my chest and back—the gentle touch made my pores open comfortably, and another stream of heat rushed up from my lower abdomen......

"No matter how good a book is, how can it compare to you? Picturesque and alive - you are the scenery I want to see! ”

I smiled softly, picked up her mantis, and then looked down at Dai Yisi's beautiful face and that moving carcass - delicate as a flower, eyebrows with spring, eyes covered with a faint layer of moisture, eyes blurred, as if in a half-dream, uncombed, but not amorous, because I just woke up, there is still a delicate and lazy breath on my body, and there is a charm that leads people to reverie; The thin cicada clothes on the body can't cover the boundless*, the pair of delicate and perfect pepper milk like jade carvings and the carcass with charming curves loom in the clothes, the small pale red milk beads are clearly recognizable, and the lower abdomen is moist, making the originally thin profane clothes of the lower body more transparent, and the black grass is faintly ......

I couldn't help but feel lust in my heart, and I rained kisses on her cherry lips, Qiong's nose, her eyes, her jade cheeks, her ears, and her pink neck...... A pair of hands probed into the infinite spring light in her clothes, slicing through her mutton fat white dew-like smooth skin, teasing the pair of firm and full breasts, and then slowly exploring down, lightly buttoning up the spring flooded jade door...... Daisy let out a soft moan from her mouth, her delicate body trembling, but she longingly met my body......

I licked her ear, exhaled a warm breath, and said, "Did you think about it, little baby?" ”

Dai Yisi bit me on the shoulder, and let out a muddy "um" sound in the wing of her nose, which was kind of a promise to me.

But I didn't want to stop there, but said, "What did you say? I didn't hear you. ”

Dai Yisi shyly agreed: "Little baby want to ......"

"What does the little baby think? How do I know if you don't make it clear? I chuckled and said that torturing the virtuous and dignified beauty who was overflowing with lust made me feel even more excited. In addition to the natural harmony with me and the daughters of Liuli, Vivien, and Drink, she is ignorant of others, although she is not as isolated from enthusiasm as an iceberg, but she is also so cold that the accoster is bored - according to Drinker's evaluation of her: "Like the moonlight, it shines lightly on the world, noble and lonely; Like flowing water, it flows quietly and lightly, free and thin. Therefore, it makes me feel more fulfilled to conquer this kind of beauty with a cold appearance, introverted feelings, and a fiery passion contained in a light and graceful appearance.

Dai Yisi finally couldn't hold back the surging of emotion, and replied to me in a trembling voice: "Little baby...... Little baby wants to ...... Want to be a big baby...... Give me! I'm going to ......"

After saying that, he lowered his head and hid his head in my arms, gently kissing my chest, expressing his resentment that I was forced to say such embarrassing and shameful words.

Listening to the violent gasping of the beautiful woman in my arms, and looking at the flirtatious body of Yiren Luo's half-dissolved, full-breasted and half-exposed, divergent hairpins, I was already embarrassed, and leaned forward, entering the perfect carcass in the most brutal way...... At this time, the pair of round and slender jade legs were trembling uneasily due to the movement, nervously waiting for the lover's caresse; Yiren is even more jade lips lightly, fragrant tongue slightly spitted, charming eyes like silk, eyelashes hanging tears trembling lightly, cheeks flushed with red tides, wanting to refuse and bear the favor of his lover......

In the side hall in the early morning, I was passionately entangled with Dai Yisi, climbing one peak after another, Dai Yisi was in the climax, because she was afraid of waking up the two girls in her sleep with excited screams, so she had to try to suppress her moans, and then she couldn't help it, so she bit my shoulders tightly, venting her silent happiness in my impact again and again, and climbed to the most intense orgasm......

In the afterglow of the climax, Dai Yisi fell into my arms delicately and weakly, her chest and abdomen were still rising and falling violently, she was gasping for breath in her mouth, the red glow on her face had not faded, and her green fingers were still entwined with my fingers, looking at me with a gaze of attachment and obsession.

And I bowed my head and kissed her soft lips tenderly, and put my hands around her soft back, giving her a firm and warm embrace......

"Alex, I love you!" After the tide of love had completely subsided, Dai Yisi looked at my face and said.

"Belle, I love you too! I will love you well for the rest of my life! I promised in a firm voice.

In the midst of the tenderness and sweetness between me and Dai Yisi, a light breeze blew in through the window, and turned back a few pages of the "Geographical Chronicles of Dongamont", which I had spread out on the table.

"People say that Qingfeng is illiterate, why do you flip through books? In fact, the wind also knows the style! I laughed, my eyes inadvertently fell on the book, and suddenly I was shocked, and my face changed!

"Alex, what's the matter?" Sensing that something was wrong with me, she thought I was overindulgent and that my body was prostrating, so she slowly pulled her delicate body away from my body, reached out and stroked my forehead, and asked worriedly.

"I don't want to, but that book ......"

I agreed, while reaching out to take the "Geographical Chronicles of Donggamont" in my hand, find the number of pages opened by the wind, and read it quickly: "Yuyan Addendum: Because of the peculiar rock quality of the rain rock, it will be softened when it encounters water, and it will be hard after drying, and the people who lived in the area of Donggamont County (note: Donggamont was called "Guluomen" in ancient times) before the invention of brick and wood houses, they mostly dug burrows in the ground for dwelling, method: water infiltrates into the ground, after the soil is loosened, the soil can be ploughed as a hole, and a layer of animal dung, pine resin and soil mixture is added to the cave wall, When dried, the walls of the cave are as hard as granite - the artificial dwelling built in this way does not melt into rainwater, and the wind and sand are difficult to erod, and it is extremely solid and solid......"

These words struck me like a steel cone - the mystery that had been haunting me for many days was finally solved, the questions I had not understood were solved, and the gloomy mood that had been gloomy was suddenly cleared, but at the same time a sense of anxiety and fear gripped my heart, and I couldn't help but cry out: "I finally understand Carlos's plan - I hope it is still too late!" ”

"Alex, what's going on?" Vivien and Gartha Ruri heard my screams, thought something had happened, and hurriedly got up and came to my side, and when they saw me and Dai Yisi's disheveled Qili Chunguang, they wanted to laugh, but they were intimidated by my Ling Ran's expression, and at the same time their faces were discolored.

I said in an extremely solemn voice: "Quickly edict the generals of all departments, gather in the East Palace!" ”

※※※

In the main hall of the East Palace, Hugh Belmont, Cassta, Drinker Ambrose, Shui Ruoxing, Galen Huadu, Garsha Ruri, Vivian, Deyce Isabelle, Gandalf (acting commander of the "Green Aura", seconded from the Cult of the Gods, the golden-clothed cardinal who is good at white magic and has zero defense, temporarily replacing Shiluo), Gremio (commander of the regular army, deputy commander of the Eastern Legion of the Empire, Purple Eyes Banner Yin) and other generals were all present, and everyone looked at me with suspicious eyes, I don't understand the reason why I am sending you an edict at this time.

Without waiting for everyone to ask, he said in a cold and majestic voice: "I have always felt that Carlos's purpose of beating drums and singing gold all night is not as simple as we seem to think. But after thinking about it, it was difficult to gauge Carlos's thoughts and plans, and this morning I accidentally flipped through the "Geography of Dongamont", and finally let me discover Carlos's true purpose! ”

At this time, Drinker let out a "ah" exclaim, and said, "That book ......"

"Yes, it's the geography of Sheffield," I continued, ignoring Derlink, "and it is mentioned that the eastern capital is a rain rock landform, and the ancients dug the ground to live in caves......"

The generals didn't understand what "rain rock" was for a while, and Drink, who loved to play treasures, explained it in detail, and everyone was amazed when they heard it, but they still didn't understand the intention of me suddenly mentioning "rain rock" and "ancients".

However, my following words set off a huge wave in the hearts of the generals: "Therefore, I conclude that the real purpose of Carlos's harassment at night is to confuse our army's hearing and hearing, so as to hide the sound of digging - Carlos intends to dig tunnels to attack the eastern capital!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and there was an uproar in the hall, but Wei Xiu and Drinker had already realized it when I said Yuyan for a while, but they still couldn't help but change color. Everyone understands the terrible consequences of Carlos's attack through the tunnels - the enemy army appears in the city like heavenly soldiers along the tunnels, and then quickly captures a certain city gate, and the east will be broken if the inside and the outside are combined!

Hugh Belmont pondered for a moment and then said: "James's painstaking management and the natural and precipitous terrain of the Eastern Capital have made Donggamont an impregnable city, which is difficult to defend and difficult to attack - if the defenders are determined to hold out, even if the 'Southern Continent God of War' Miusi Yuga is resurrected, they can only look at the city and sigh, helpless. Originally, it would not be feasible to dig tunnels to attack such a dangerous and strong city, so everyone did not consider it in this direction. Carlos is worthy of being a famous general in the world, and he has such a deep understanding of the geography of the Eastern Capital, and he has advanced in the face of difficulties, and from a perspective that everyone can never imagine, he has found a wonderful way to break the city - it is really a stroke of genius!

"If Carlos's strategy can really be implemented calmly, the eastern capital will inevitably fall, and our army will suffer an unexpected and painful defeat, fortunately, His Majesty has found out in advance - although I don't know how much time is left before Carlos launches, but our army can still try to recover the disadvantage, send people to survey everywhere, be sure to find out where the enemy's tunnel exit is, and then mobilize troops and horses to seal the exit and cut off its approach!"

Xiu's words made the generals see the dawn of hope, and they immediately cheered.

But what Drinker said below undoubtedly poured cold water on everyone's heads: "The problem is that under the confusion of the enemy army, the roar of the wilderness, the sound of the earthquake, and the constant fluctuations on the ground, it will be even more difficult for us to find out the unusual movements underground!" In addition to this, I also have a concern - if the enemy excavates more than one tunnel, or if the tunnels fork several times after reaching the city, and have multiple exits, the exit that we deliberately let find is likely to be just a cover, and the actual offensive route is different, so that we will not be able to guard against it, and it will take time and time to gain nothing! And I'm afraid we don't have time to survey the ground slowly - I guess Carlos is about to start! ”

There was silence for a while, and the hall went from being extremely quiet to extremely noisy, and now it is extremely quiet.

"The generals will obey!" My cold and majestic voice resounded through the main hall, hitting everyone's hearts like heavy metal on the ground, "Immediately send someone to survey all parts of the city, if you find anything suspicious, plant it in the ground with an iron cone, and immediately inject sulfuric acid and poisonous gas after determining it as a passage, and at the same time strengthen the defense of all parts of the city, assign soldiers to garrison military strongholds and key roads in the city, take twenty steps as a post, implement martial law in the whole city, and in addition, order the three armies to be ready to break out of the city if necessary!" ”

I paused, swept over everyone with a condensed and determined gaze, and continued: "Generals, there is no need to panic! Carlos has a miracle, but I also have a victory! Before I set out for the expedition to Eastern Gamont, I had expected that Aruton and Ettiria would not be willing to sit idly by and would inevitably send troops to obstruct them, so I had already made comprehensive arrangements and completed the overall strategic deployment against the two coalition forces! What we have to do now is to have a race of time with the Carlos army - as long as our army holds on for a moment longer, the victory will be closer by one point; As long as the enemy army is slow to launch for a second, the fate of defeat will be even more difficult to change! Our army has held out until now, and the enemy's chance to win is running out, and the possibility of reversing the general trend of the battle is getting smaller and smaller! As long as we hold on a little longer, we will surely win the final victory! ”

After listening to my methodical and unhurried arrangements and a series of orders, and hearing that I had anticipated the enemy's precedence, the generals could not help but have full confidence in their Emperor Majesty, and they all fell to the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty is wise! The Empire will win! ”

※※※

At the same time, an imperial messenger hurried to the East Palace in the eastern capital, but was stopped by the guards of the "Yellow Dragon's Ear" for questioning.

"Please pass the official information, and your subordinates must face the saint immediately!" The messenger gasped.

"Your Majesty is discussing important matters with the generals, and it is inconvenient to disturb the holy car, please wait a while, and it will be passed on after the meeting." One of the guards said.

"But this is an emergency military situation! There is no ...... delay," said the dusty messenger anxiously.

After the two guards glanced at each other, they immediately conveyed a message to the palace, and one of them immediately said: "Military affairs, the wartime emergency law applies, and all etiquette is temporarily exempted - sergeants, please enter immediately, there is no need to pass the message, go straight to the temple to face the saint, no one dares to stop you!" ”

"General Xie!" After saluting the guards, the messenger immediately ran straight towards the palace.

※※※

I was deliberating with the generals on the details of what to do with Carlos Chitzer, when I suddenly saw the figure of a soldier rushing through the entrance of the temple, and knowing that something must happen before a soldier would enter the forbidden world without being announced, I immediately walked down the steps quickly, and walked towards the soldier, only to see my figure flash and appear in front of him.

At the moment when the soldier was exhausted, I reached out and held him up.

"Your Majesty...... The ...... of the Carlos Army and the Eden Army At the same time, there was an unusual movement...... The two armies abruptly withdrew from their camps...... The meaning is unknown! The messenger finished speaking in one breath, and finally fainted due to exhaustion and collapse.

I stood up, could no longer hide the excitement and joy on my face, waved my hand and shouted, "It's done!" Binglan and Memphis finally succeeded in defeating Haynes and Constantine at the same time, forcing Carlos and Eden to return to their divisions to save them! ”

※※※

In the early morning of 20 December, the Carlos army began to withdraw backwards - the 300,000-strong army divided into several corresponding phalanxes and retreated in an orderly manner, moving slowly at first and gradually increasing in pace. Its tight formation and methodical and step-by-step retreat made it impossible for our troops to pursue from behind - if our army tried to attack from behind, it would only be swallowed up by the raging tide of the enemy's army!

At this moment, the sky was suddenly covered with leaden black clouds, and without warning, a torrential downpour began to fall, as if it was to see off the Carlos army.

Standing on the tower of the South Gate, braving the torrential rain, I watched Carlos's army move away, only to see the enemy quickly wade across the Seine in the heavy rain, reach the other side of the river, and then slowly disappear into the rain-obscured view......

Almost at the same time as the withdrawal of the Carlos army, the Eden army also began to withdraw from the garrison outside the North City Gate, but when the heavy rain came, a strange chaos suddenly appeared in the Eden army......

At the same time, I also received an urgent report from Azelio: it turned out that Azelio himself appeared in the rear of the enemy line with 4,000 light cavalry, and at the moment when Eden's army began to retreat, he took advantage of the rain and thunder and lightning to launch a sudden attack on the enemy's rear, using the indestructible hibiscus oil to burn the enemy's grain, grass and weight!

Due to the sudden attack, the burning of grain, grass and sage, and the obstruction of the rain, the enemy army could not distinguish the enemy situation for a while, thinking that they had encountered the encirclement and annihilation of the army, they couldn't help but panic, unable to organize an effective counterattack, and were forced by Azelio to retreat three hundred thousand miles in a hurry with only 4,000 light cavalry, and cut down more than 15,000 enemies!

Seeing this, I couldn't help but exclaim: "What an Azelio! ”

Then he said to his generals: "Now is the time to ask Aruton for some interest!" He immediately ordered an army of 100,000 men, with the vampire Earl and Hugh Belmont as his lieutenants, and personally led the army to pursue Eden's troops from the northern city......
