Chapter 16

Today is a good day, the wind is slowly blowing from the city wall, driving the flag planted on the wall to move slightly. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info sunshine and warmth, neither the gentleness of winter nor the scorching heat of summer, full of vitality, let people fall in love with it.

However, such good weather did not bring George VI a good mood. Because he knew that Allen's army was coming.

Not so long ago, he was an ambitious monarch who was about to make a big splash and establish his immortal deeds. Who knew that the division would not be successful, but in the first battle, he was defeated by an unknown Alan Ouranos. And he fled back in embarrassment.

To this day, George VI still does not understand why a duke is capable of defeating himself who has almost the power of the whole country. Because of this, the bright red armor and the golden eagle banner on a red background have also become his nightmares. In the past six months, he has not been able to sleep soundly for a night.

And that damned traitor, despicable infidel! George VI cursed John fiercely in his heart. It must be that he is in collusion with Ouranos! It's all his fault! When he is caught, he must be put to death!

George VI circled back and forth in the room. According to the information, the Ouranos guy has already sent troops towards him. As soon as he thought of the red army that was as red as a tide of blood, George VI was inexplicably flustered.

Suddenly, the voice of an attendant came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Prince Renard is here."

"What! Take me to him!" George VI exclaimed in surprise, quickly pushed open the door, and ran out.

Duke of Renard, whose full name is Setion Renard. He was the prince of the Kingdom of Rollin and the uncle of George VI. He owns a large territory in the southern part of the Kingdom of Rollin, and leads the army of the Kingdom of Rollin to be stationed in the west of the kingdom all year round, defending against the invasion of barbarians in the west.

After a long military career and the fact that he was over sixty years old, Prince Renard's hair was graying and his face was full of wrinkles. But the glint in his eyes had already told everyone that they should never think of him as an old man who had done nothing.

George VI walked quickly to Renard and said anxiously, "Dear uncle, you have finally arrived. How many people did you bring with you this time?"

Reynard put his right hand on his chest, bent down and saluted before replying: "Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, this time I have brought three thousand soldiers, and I will dispatch them at any time."

George VI hurriedly took a few steps forward, took Renard's hand affectionately, and led Renard to his seat. Then he asked with a heavy face, "Is there only three thousand?" Why don't you bring more?"

Reynard looked a little flustered when he saw George VI frowning. Then he comforted: "Your Majesty don't worry too much. These 3,000 people are all experienced warriors who have experienced life-and-death battles. And among them were five hundred barbarian warriors. Combat effectiveness can be believed. ”

Renard was confident, but George VI was unrelenting.

"You haven't seen it, uncle, and the army of Ouranos is something I've never seen before. No army can do as much as they do, and their morale is as high as they are. I confronted his ten thousand horses with an army of fifty thousand. It ended in a big defeat. I really don't have a bottom. ”

"Your Majesty, is Ouranos really so powerful?" Renard asked incredulously.

George VI nodded bitterly, as if he was a little embarrassed.

"What about Your Excellency? What about the magician? Didn't he say that he could help His Majesty build a great cause?!"

"The traitor is no longer saying goodbye...

Damn it! Renard scolded angrily and slapped the armrest of the chair with his right hand. When he took his hand away, there were several deep finger marks left on the armrest.

Renard pondered silently, George VI was still immersed in painful memories, and the room fell silent.

Suddenly, Renard said solemnly: "Your Majesty, now there is an opportunity."

"Oh?" George VI looked at Renard suspiciously.

"Just as I arrived at Fort Como, my team caught a sneaky man wandering outside the castle. Later, when I asked, I found that it was a messenger from Esis. As he spoke, Reynard took a letter from his bosom and handed it to George VI.

"According to the messenger, Essis had a man named Baron Chris, who intended to unite the nobles of all parties against the rule of Ouranos. At the same time, they are willing to form an alliance with us and cooperate with us to get rid of Ouranos, and we can take advantage of their internal strife to solve Ouranos. ”

George VI looked at Renard with a cautious face, although he couldn't believe Renard's words, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"Can it really be successful?"

"I think if what Chris said is true, then we do have a chance."

George VI nodded, and said in a somewhat lonely tone: "Uncle Renard, at this point in state affairs, I still need you to take care of it."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, you will do your best!"

After saying that, Renard took his leave and left. George VI looked at the back of his uncle, smiled sadly, and then turned and walked into the study.

"Your Excellency? How?"

As soon as Renard left the castle and entered the barracks, a large number of people immediately gathered. From the thick armor and colorful smocks on their bodies, it can be known that they are the nobles of the Rollin Kingdom.

"I have already met with Your Majesty. From now on, I hope that you will contribute more to national affairs. ”

"Your Excellency, that... John... What about Your Excellency?" A middle-aged nobleman asked with some confusion.

After pondering for a while, Reynard said, "After the last defeat, His Majesty realized his mistake and has expelled John from the court."

"Great!" That's right. ”

Apparently, the news of John's departure from the court was well received by the crowd.

In fact, these nobles have long been dissatisfied with John's control of military and political power, but it is a pity that George VI did not know what medicine he had taken wrong, so he trusted him so much. Maybe with a different nobleman, everyone's hearts can accept it a little better. But John was not a nobleman, he was a magician, a heretic.

The nobles around him were all very happy, but Renard could not produce a trace of joy. Because he knew that it would be very difficult to defeat an ambitious king to the point of discouragement.

He knew that George VI was not a cowardly monarch, but the powerlessness that George VI felt towards Ouranos was real.

He also knew John, and although he didn't know John well, he had seen many magicians in his more than sixty years of life. John, on the other hand, was a very resourceful and wise young man. It was also for this reason that Renard allowed John to take control of the court of the Kingdom of Lorraine. Otherwise, with Renard's prestige for many years, John would have been driven out by the nobles long ago.

But the natural combination of an ambitious monarch and a resourceful strategist collapsed after a defeat. John said goodbye, and George VI was discouraged, a result that surprised Renard. It also aroused his inner curiosity.

Alan Ouranos, what kind of person is he? (To be continued.) )
