Chapter 69: Keep Going!
Call~
Alan wiped the sweat from his head and took a deep breath. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Finally won. Allen's hanging heart finally let go of the Rollin soldiers who were in full retreat. For this war Alan has exhausted the war potential of the entire Essis Territory, and if he loses, in the future... I'm afraid there won't be a future.
"Congratulations, Lord Duke!" Elizabeth walked up to Alan's side and congratulated.
Alan tugged at the corners of his mouth with relief, and said with a reluctant smile: "Elizabeth, this battle has worried me for a while. It's a relief to be able to win now. ”
"For Lord Duke, will such a battle also be tense?" Elizabeth asked, turning her head sideways to look at Alan's face.
Don't look at Elizabeth now she is also dressed in a military uniform, sassy and heroic. But after all, she was a fifteen-year-old girl not long ago, and she had no experience in war. Elizabeth had never experienced this kind of battle, which involved more than tens of thousands of men on both sides. In the face of this bloody battlefield, in the face of countless fresh lives dying in front of them, it is impossible to say that there is no impact on Elizabeth.
If it weren't for Alan standing in front of her, she might not have been able to support it a long time ago. For Elizabeth, Ellen is not only her benefactor, but also the perfect knight in her eyes.
Living in Essis, she has experienced and experienced first-hand the changes in Essis. Essis, a featureless, cookie-cutter medium-sized city, quickly blossomed into its brilliance after Allen's reforms.
The Academy of Athens has almost become a beacon of scholarship on the mainland, bringing together a wide variety of scholars from all over the world. These people are now in the streets, and academic debates are everywhere. The flourishing academic ethos has infected many people, and Allen's respect and reuse of scholars has made the citizens of Essis feel a sense of reverence for scholars that they have never felt before. Today's children dream of going to school at the Athens Academy.
The construction of the courts and the enactment of basic laws ensured the personal safety of the citizens and peasants of the city, and led to a rapid increase in the people's sense of identification with the Ouranos regime. At the same time, the cohesion of the Essis Collar was also rapidly formed. At the same time, the substantial improvement of public security has enabled the city to maintain good order, that is, to ensure the rapid development of the city, and to fully take care of the needs of every citizen.
Economically, it is also developing rapidly. Due to the extermination of bandit roadlords in various parts of Esis, plus the construction of the Avenue of Ouranos. As a result, transportation has become more and more convenient, and business has developed rapidly. Every day, there is an endless stream of vendors of all sizes in the city. Coupled with efficient management and the establishment of the market, the dazzling goods can be known to everyone, which not only enriches the eyes of the citizens, but also shows the unique style of Essis to outsiders.
The good health was praised by all, and many merchants who came from afar brought the order and prosperity of Essis to distant lands, and under the processing of the bards, a new star was rising. It has gradually become another big city that can compete with the holy city of Jubit and the capitals of other countries!
At the same time, the army of Essis, under the leadership of Allen, fought in the east and west, whether it was from the wars of local princes to large national wars. Allen has always maintained a strong fighting force. The prestige of the Essis Red Iron Army has long been proclaimed. From the Northland Ice Fields to the Great Southern Forests, from the Eastern Continent to the Rollin Plateau, the prestige of the Essis Legion is known to everyone.
And the creator of all this is Alan Ouranos, who is now standing beside her. The man who saved her from the abyss of hell.
"Of course I'm nervous." Alan nodded seriously and said, "The other party is a difficult opponent, and even I don't know the ending until the last moment." ”
Alan didn't lie, he really didn't have absolute certainty in this battle.
In fact, Alan had already sensed Renard's character. When Allen's army came on a long journey, Renard, who was supposed to be at ease, did not take the opportunity to attack. Later, when Alan deliberately let the troops swagger past Reynard's eyes, Reynard didn't make a big move. Especially when the knight troops sent by Renard came to tempt, Alan deliberately showed weakness to the enemy, and tried to lure the knights to attack without success.
Obviously, Renard relied on his own geographical possession and military strength to have more advantages than Allen, and planned to advance head-on step by step and defeat Allen in a dignified manner.
In the face of such an opponent who overwhelmed people with power and force, Allen had to win by surprise. Truth be told, before Leonardo's move, Allen had never been able to guarantee his victory. If Leonardo's actions were not successful, it would be a bloody battle.
"Then the Duke can rest assured now. The battle has been won! Elizabeth said with a smile.
"Yes, victory... Alan muttered, as if there was something else in his heart, and his tone was a little happy and a little lost.
Elizabeth looked at Allen's not very happy face, and asked suspiciously, "Lord Duke, don't you seem to be happy?" ”
Alan nodded, looked at the battlefield that had been covered with blood and corpses, and said, "Every war has so many lives that die. Mankind... It's so fragile. The king was angry and ambushed millions of corpses, and that's what he said. “
"Your Excellency, the Duke..." Elizabeth looked at Alan's somewhat sad side face, and felt an inexplicable pang in her heart. In her eyes, Alan has always been that calm and strong image. No matter how much pressure he faced, even in the face of pressure from the royal family and the church, he was so calm. But such a strong person actually showed a trace of sadness at this time.
Elizabeth didn't understand Alan's change, and that was because she didn't know Allen's origins. In his previous life, Alan was an ordinary ordinary person, maybe he had some small dreams and little obscenities, but he stopped there. Because he is self-aware.
Yes, maybe now that Eren has lived in the El Continent for nineteen years, he has already developed the mentality of a superior, and even when he usually speaks and acts, he reveals the natural arrogant character of the nobles. But the reality in the bones stems from the little people's awe of life. This has never been abandoned by him. In other words, it has long been imprinted in his heart.
Therefore, when a big battle that determines life and death is over, that desire for survival has empathy for the soldiers who are also small people and are struggling to survive on the front line.
It was a joy of life and a reverence for death.
Alan turned his head sideways to see Elizabeth's worried eyes and smiled slightly.
Above his head, the golden eagle flag on a red background was stretching his body in the wind. The golden eagle printed on it spreads its wings and is waiting for the day when it spreads its wings and soars! (To be continued.) )
