The first thing Zelda gets when she returns to the fortress of Baroud is bad news: his woman, Yalta, died of blood loss during childbirth, leaving only a baby boy to survive. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Strictly speaking, there is no love between Zelda and Yalta, Yalta is just a handmaid given to him by Sulla, in order to look a little similar to Sura, and Sulla did this only to make up for the previous relationship between the two after becoming a princess. In fact, to put it bluntly, there is no love between Zelda and Sura, more just the use of physical relationships to strengthen the trust between the two parties for the common good. Poor Yalta is nothing more than a substitute for Sula, and ironically, this substitute appears and disappears with her own deity, Sulla, and Yalta dies not long after Sula's death.

Zelda held her son in her arms, and the fragile baby fell asleep to herself. When Yalta was dying, she named the child "Ameira", which Zelda knew was the Arubanian word for hope, and Yalta was looking forward to her husband's return. Thinking of this, Zelda couldn't help but sigh a little, Yalta was not yet twenty years old when she died, as a slave girl, the only thing in her life that can prove that she once existed in this world is probably the child in her hands.

"Son, from today onwards, your name will be Amela Ham." Zelda whispered to her son. Hamm means returning bird in the Yaki language, and Zelda was unaware that the name she had given her son would become such a famous figure in history.

Just as Zelda lamented Yalta's death, a second piece of bad news followed: the 20,000 cavalry led by Müller was only a day-and-a-half-day journey away from the fortress of Baroud.

This news was far more terrible than the first, for the arrival of the Muller army meant that the exhausted Gilmus army had to be prepared immediately, otherwise it would be difficult to hold the fort. Even though Zelda began to arrange all kinds of matters for the defense of the city, although everyone was dragging a tired body, they had to grit their teeth and insist on carrying out the order, because no one wanted to be attacked by the Palchi army, and no one wanted to admit defeat so easily.

Before Muller arrived, Zelda sent two more emissaries to ask for support from the Arubanian Decicher Fleet. This is not an easy task, because the capital of Arubania has fallen, and the Decier Sea Fleet, which is under the command of the king of Arubania, can either choose to live and die with the king or simply surrender to the Palci army, and there is no need to choose to cooperate with Prince Gilmus to go on a path of exile with an uncertain future, and it may also face all kinds of hardships and hardships. In order to increase the chances of success, Zelda made a slight move, and he modified the order given by Dicar II to Gilmus, so that Gilmus also had command of the Dicher Sea Fleet. It was an adventure that would be an end if it was discovered, but Zelda had to do it, because if he didn't gamble, Prince Gilmus would lose his only possible escape.

Müller's army arrived earlier than reported, and only a day later a mountain of cavalry poured under the fortress of Baroud. Apparently Zelda's timely return also caught Müller by surprise, and he adopted a siege strategy after ascertaining the reality of the fortress of Baroud - after all, it was impossible for cavalry to break through such a strong fortress without siege equipment.

This was somewhat comforting to Zelda, as his men had finally been given a chance to catch their breath. But the situation is only going to get worse, because there are no more reinforcements to save yourself in the whole of Arubania, and Mueller's reinforcements will continue to arrive. The only thing Müller could count on at the moment was the Trench Sea Fleet, the only armed force that could match the Parcian army, at least when it came to a confrontation at sea.

As time passed, Zelda became more and more anxious, but this mood did not help the situation to improve at all, but the Palchi army, twelve days later, Li Tianhao's army of 40,000 had marched into the vicinity of the fortress of Baroud. In addition, it is rumored that the two generals Efinos and Cheka have successfully conquered a large part of northern Arubania, and the main force of about 150,000 people of the Palchi army led by Weizon has also taken a large number of cities along the coast of the Diqir Sea, and the distance from the fortress of Barud is getting closer and closer. Although Zelda suspected that this was the news that Li Tianhao deliberately spread in order to undermine his morale, he knew in his heart that Li Tianhao was doing this, and even if things were not completely in line with reality, it was only a matter of time before they reached this level.

As this kind of news gradually spread in the fortress, what Zelda feared finally happened: the mood of the soldiers became increasingly low, and some clamored to go out of the city to fight the enemy to the death, but fortunately, the army she trained did not hear anyone who wanted to surrender, otherwise Zelda's treatment of these people would directly affect the emotions of all the soldiers.

Even Prince Gilmus's mood is getting lower and lower. The boy who has just ushered in the eleventh year of his life is now a talent, although his height has not yet reached the level of an adult, but he is only half a head shorter than Zelda, and his appearance is more and more like his father Aiyuka, under Zelda's careful training, Gilmus's swordsmanship has also made great progress, in addition to the strength is not enough, it can almost reach a similar level with Zelda, the most important point is that Gilmus does not have the arrogance of his father Aiyuka, In the past few years of education, he has shown a level of intelligence that is significantly higher than that of his peers, and even more insightful than many adults. But now there is no light in this child, and a dark emotion hangs over this young man. This made Zelda very sad in her heart, in terms of her feelings for Prince Gilmus, Zelda was even stronger than her newborn son, seeing the prince's low mood, Zelda always felt that it was because of her incompetence that led to everything today.

"Father, if you have a spirit in the sky, please save this child, even if you are desperate for Yaki, at least save His Royal Highness the Prince." Zelda couldn't help but pray to his dead father Ulysses in his heart, and he hoped that his dead father would use his wisdom to guide him out of this desperate situation.

However, the reality is always so cruel, and it is at this time that an even bigger piece of bad news came, and the extent of it can be said to have dealt a fatal blow to Zelda.
