Chapter 13: The Beginning of the War

The Talb front-line fortified airport in the province of La Rochelle is not so much a fortified airport, that is, it has a few more artillery and walls than the average airport. As a fleet station guarding the border of the sea of clouds, it is somewhat cold. There is no way to do this, Toristin is a country with a traditional and magical civilization, and it is still a little weak in terms of pure military strength.

On the Mercator, the flagship of the Torristeen fleet, Count La Lame, as the commander of the fleet, frowned and looked at the figure on the table.

"I'm not optimistic." Beside him, Captain Phebis sighed, "Even with the help of His Excellency the Sage Dragon, I don't think we can defeat Abion in the event of a war. ”

"Well, but, now this time when I don't know when this war will come." Although Count Lame has no special talents, he is still a qualified captain of the fleet, and the recent tense situation has made him not sleep well for several days, and he pressed his somewhat swollen temples, "Captain, sometimes, you know that you will lose, and you can't retreat." ”

"Of course." Captain Febis waved his fist indignantly, as if he wanted to break something, "Those Abiong puppies who have pushed their own king to the execution table with their own hands, this is blasphemy against the ancestors!" ”

"How long can you hold on. As long as we suppress the enemy in the sea of clouds, we will be able to hold the land, and as for the 'Imperial Power', we can only hand it over to Lord Dorag. ”

Count Lame pretended to be relaxed, but he didn't expect much in his heart, but as long as he could grasp the enemy's movements and prevent the enemy from landing on 6 at any cost, there was indeed a possibility of 'victory'. However, this so-called 'victory' is not about defeating the enemy, but only about repelling the opponent.

"Haha, every time I see Lord Dorag skimming through the sky, I always feel that we will win too. I don't know when he'll come back today......"

Just as Count Lame watched helplessly at Captain Fiebis spitting. A flying sailor anxiously ran in and shoutedβ€”

"A fleet appears in the direction of Abion! Distance......"

"Coax-" "Coax-"

"Coax-"

"Coax-"

……

Needless to say the distance, it seems that it has already caught fire with the battleships patrolling outside. However, Toristine's weak fleet itself has very limited combat effectiveness, let alone the patrol ships outside, and there is no need to confirm that the battle situation is one-sided.

"Impossible!" Count Lame stood up with a snort and listened to the sailors, "How is it possible!" Scouting dragon knights! Why didn't the intelligence come back! ”

"The dragon knights sent to scout have not been returned!"

"My lord, now is not the time to be angry, organize a defense immediately!" Captain Febis said anxiously.

Defense...... Hearing the captain's words, Lame smiled bitterly, and the captain of the flagship said "stop the defense" instead of "organize a counterattack". This battle is difficult......

"Immediately let the warships in the bay sail and open up before the other side annihilates our patrol." Lamei knew that staying in the airport was only a target, and now he could only make a decisive attack to deal with it, but he didn't know how long he could hold it. Shaking his head, he ordered the sailors to "immediately call the griffons to inform the Lord of Talb, Earl of Aston, and the royal palace of the attack here!" Be quick! ”

"The Earl of Aston?"

The captain was about to run to the bridge, paused slightly, and then ran out of the door with a sigh. He knew that the lord was only a private soldier of about 1oo people. However, behind this front-line fortress was his fiefdom Talb, and although it was reasonable to inform him, according to the custom of these Torristian nobles...... Another ghost who died in battle......

……………… Toristine Palace..................

It didn't take long for the news of the total destruction of the Torlistine Frontier Fleet to reach Torristin's royal palace. There was no declaration of war, no diplomatic rhetoric, and it was called in disregard of etiquette. The Torristeen Palace was in chaos. If Dorag was there, there was a good chance that he would blurt out "blitzkrieg".

The generals and ministers were gathered and a meeting was being held, but at the meeting, they were in trouble because of disagreement. Some people think that it is necessary to ask Abion about the cause and effect of the incident first, indicating that since the crown prince Wales has "escaped marriage", he has nothing to do with Torlistine. Some advocated sending an emergency envoy to Gemaniyah immediately, hoping that the other side would send troops to support even if some unequal treaties were signed.

Sitting in the conference room was a dazed Anrietta, who had just reluctantly sent off her lover, and now she had encountered such a thing, her country was under attack, and her citizens were in danger.

"Abion disregarded the honor of the nobles and did such a despicable thing!"

"The other party has logged in! The previous outside line plan was completely waste paper! The military is to blame!! ”

"We'll immediately propose a meeting to Abiang! Now, maybe it's possible to clear up the misunderstanding! ”

The conference room was a mess.

"That's right! We also have the Sage Dragon! ”

"That's right"

It seems that a strange switch has been flipped on, and these ministers actually regard the "dragon that is just a little big and a little intelligent" that they originally disdained a little bit as the last straw.

Looking at the ugliness of the ministers in the conference room, Angeletta came back to her senses, her eyes full of sorrow.

Just then, an urgent report came.

After receiving the book from the herald owl, the herald ran into the conference room out of breath.

"Urgent report! After the Abyang ship pair landed, the occupation began! ”

"Where's the place?"

"It's said to be on the outskirts of La Rochelle! That is, the area of the Talbu steppe! ”

……………… Talb steppe ..................

Although I had an adventure with the talented people for a while, I later got the Dragon Feather Cloak (Zero Style). Shesta also stayed at home because of his vacation, but ......

Shesta was in the courtyard of his house, hugging his younger siblings, staring at the sky with an uneasy expression. Just now, there was an explosion from La Rochelle.

She was taken aback, and hurried out of the courtyard to see, and what appeared in her eyes was a horrible scene. One by one, the flaming ships fell from the sky, crashed into the mountain wall and fell into the forest.

The village was in an uproar. Not long after, a huge ship fell from the sky. The ship, which looked like a huge cloud, dropped anchor on the grassland and anchored in the air under the gaze of the villagers.

From the top of the ship, several dragons flew out.

"What happened? Sister? ”

The younger siblings asked, hugging Shesta.

"Let's go inside."

Shesta suppressed his uneasiness and urged his siblings into the house. Both parents at home stared out the window with uneasy expressions.

"Isn't that Abion's fleet?"

The dragon that flew out of the ship was flying towards the village. The father hurriedly carried the mother out of the window, and with a rumbling sound, the dragon carrying the dragon knight flew around the village and began to breathe fire towards the nearby houses.

"Ahhh

The mother couldn't help but scream.

The house was ignited by the fire spewed by the dragon, and the glass of the window immediately shattered, and the shards were scattered all over the room. Suddenly, the whole village was filled with raging flames and all sorts of wails.

The father hugged his mother, who had fainted, and said to Shesta, who was trembling all over: "Shesta! Flee with your brothers and sisters to the forest to the south! ”

……………… Palace..................

More than two hours have passed since the total destruction of the Torlistine fleet. It was past noon, and the conference room of the royal palace was constantly receiving various urgent reports.

Lord of Talbe, Earl of Aston killed in battle!

The dragon knights sent to scout have not been returned!

Abiang still hasn't answered!

The Sage Dragon got the news an hour ago that it had left for the Talb front, and the estimated arrival time was still 7o minutes!

However, fruitless arguments continued in the conference room.

"Let's ask for reinforcements from Gmaniyah!"

"It seems too big to make things bigger."

"How about having the entire dragon knights attack from the air?"

"Gather the rest of the ships! All! To all! It doesn't matter how small the boat is, whether it's an old ship or anything! ”

"Send an envoy now! If he attacked, it would be tantamount to giving Abion an excuse for all-out war! ”

There was still no progress at the meeting, and it was difficult for Masarini to make a final decision. He still hopes to resolve the matter through diplomatic means.

In the meeting room, which was full of cheers, Angeletta stared at the ring finger that was a token that Wales had given her before leaving, and said that he would definitely return.

"Didn't you swear to this ring at that time?"

"If the Wales you love are already brave enough to go to war, you must be brave enough to defend your homeland."

The village of Talb, on fire!

When Anrietta heard the sound of this urgent report, she immediately came back to her senses. She took a deep breath and stood up. All eyes were on her, and Anrietta said in an unwavering voice, "Aren't you ashamed? ”

"Your Highness the Princess?"

"Our land is being invaded by the enemy, huh? Before shouting about any alliance, what envoy, we should have something else to do, right? But Anrietta slapped the table vigorously and exclaimed, "While we are here to discuss, the people are bleeding!" Isn't it the duty of our nobles to protect them? What the hell are we calling ourselves royal and noble? Isn't protecting them in such a crisis a prerequisite for us to reign over the world? ”

No one could refute it, Anrietta said in a cold voice.

"You must be scared. Indeed, Abion is a great power, and even if we fight back, we will not have much chance of winning. You don't want to be the planner of the counterattack, so as not to be held accountable after the defeat, do you? In that case, are you going to live like this for a long time? ”

"Your Highness the Princess."

Masarini tried to reassure her, but Anrietta continued:

"In that case, then I'll lead it, and you guys will continue to have meetings here!"

Angela immediately rushed out of the conference room, and Masarini and several other nobles hurriedly rose to stop her.

"Your Royal Highness! You're a golden man! ”

Ignoring the blockers, and arriving in the central square of the palace, Anrietta cried out, "My carriage! Guards! Come here! ”

The princess's carriage, pulled by the holy unicorn, immediately arrived. The Guards and Magical Guardians, who were waiting in the central plaza, heard Arianta's voice and immediately came to answer them. Angela untied a unicorn from the carriage and rode on.

"From now on, the whole army will be under my command! Gather your companies at once! ”

The members of the Magical Guardians, who were aware of the current situation, saluted her at the same time. Angela gripped the unicorn's belly. The horns protruding from the unicorn's forehead proudly reflected in the sunlight, raised its front hooves high, and galloped forward. Behind her, the shouts of the members of the Magical Guardians riding phantom beasts rang out one after another.

"Follow Her Highness the Princess!"

"Onward! If you fall behind, it is equivalent to discrediting your family name! ”

One by one, the nobles in the central square rushed out, and the communication of the sortie had reached the various companies scattered under the city.

Masarini, who was staring blankly at this scene, couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Although he has always believed that no matter what efforts he makes, he will inevitably fight to the death with Abion in the end, but the domestic preparations have not yet been completed, and he is not sparing his life. He has always made such judgments in his own way for the sake of the country and for the sake of the people. Even if it was a small sacrifice, he didn't want to fight a war that was sure to be lost. No matter how much he is misunderstood by the people, he is insulted, or even slandered as a certain king, as long as the country is safe.

However, the truth is exactly what the princess said. All his diplomatic efforts have come to naught, and even if he clings to it, what can he do? Before arguing, there are indeed other things that should be done.

A high-ranking nobleman came over and whispered into his ear: "Military aircraft, about sending envoys. ”

Masarini threw the round hat he was wearing in the face of the nobleman. Then, look around the audience with a defiant look...... It's just a joke! Did this kind of imprudent expression actually appear on the face of the powerful minister, the de facto leader of Torristin, the bird bone Masarini!

The cautious and indifferent Bird's Bone, Torlistine's Scepter, and the Minister of War Masarini, solemnly drew his wandβ€”

"Gentlemen! Let's ride now! If Her Royal Highness the Princess is allowed to go alone, it will be a great shame to continue to the last of us! ”

(A certain snake: Although it is just a holiday, there are still some things to deal with, and it will be much better in the future.) Then, today I updated "Home Travel" and "Infinite Academy". By the way, it's just possible. It's possible that the old man will go to the TV station to learn something during the holidays, so the time is ...... otzοΌ‰

But it's true that there is a problem with "the last place to board 6", not me to board 6. Recently, I tried to solve it, but every time I change the password, it always prompts that the account is abnormal, and I just don't let me change it.
