Chapter 131: The Dispatch of the Border Army
Between the towering mountains, the long national highway winds.
The sun is shining high, and the dust is flying.
A herald on a horse in the army, with some kind of metaphorical order, galloped.
"Tap..."
"Tap..."
The four hooves kicked the ground one after another, and the herald was anxious but not in a hurry.
Yu Ling is a codex, which is considered an official document.
And the order, in fact, has already been communicated to the border troops located on the border through magic communication.
Therefore, the herald is not very urgent, but he is also non-stop and does not want to delay.
There are also sixty-eight places that are also running around.
They are located in the southwest, west, northwest, and north of the Alec Empire.
In these directions, there were border armies under the command of different generals.
The strongest of these is the Dragoon Frontier under Bane Hamm.
Under this dragoon border army guarding the north of the empire, there are eighteen imperial knights, and they are canonized knights.
Of the eighteen great knights, the third of them is the most.
Originally, there were nineteen grand knights, but the ninth knight was previously implicated in the treason of Prince Romney of the empire and was also included in the ranks of traitors.
After the incident of the prince's treason, the whole country was shocked.
This is a vicious event that has not been seen in the hundreds of years since the founding of the empire.
The hidden organization "Alecron" involved is even more appalling.
The huge underground world made everyone who heard it feel incredible.
Who can build such a huge underground world under the imperial capital without knowing it?
Who else but the prince?
Could it be the Emperor?
No kidding.
No one believed that someone would dig up the ground of their own house and then murder their own son.
On the contrary, people believe that if the son wants to seize power, he may dig a pit and wait for a rebellion.
Just like it is said today.
It is rumored that Dorogo the Great, when he learned of Romney's treason, was so heartbroken that he fainted in tears.
This is really a person's hear, and I feel that the father and son are not filial!
There was a lot of talk about it, even among the border troops.
"Have you heard?"
"The treason of the prince some time ago has reached the Holy See."
A frontier soldier standing guard on the wall of the mountain col whispered to his comrades next to him.
"Really?"
"Did the Pope react then?"
When this comrade-in-arms heard the gossip, the melon-eating soul in his heart immediately burned, eager to hear more exciting news.
"Not really."
"The Pope heard about Romney's treason and didn't do anything."
The border army who spoke first was asked rhetorically, but he didn't hide it, and directly said the follow-up.
"Isn't it? The princes have all committed treason, and the Pope has not abolished his throne as the Son? ”
This comrade-in-arms obviously thought it was incredible, how could a traitor be a holy son.
"Hey, don't say it, it's just not abolished."
"I also heard that not only did it not be abolished, but the Holy See also sent a cardinal archbishop to communicate with His Majesty."
"I hope that the treason incident can be re-investigated thoroughly and that possible misunderstandings can be clarified."
The border army at the beginning continued to tell that the amount of gossip news was abundant.
"Tsk, it's a misunderstanding."
"So a large underground world has been found, and the members of Alecon have confessed."
"What a misunderstanding?"
The comrades-in-arms obviously believed the plain words of the empire, and did not feel that there was anything to be redeemed from Romney's treason.
"What a noise! Want to be beaten with a stick?! ”
The two border soldiers were discussing the excitement when suddenly a general came over and scolded the two viciously.
"Ah, no, sir! Can't! ”
As soon as they were scolded by this general, the two border soldiers immediately stood tall and did not say more.
"Don't let me catch you chewing on your tongue again! Stand guard for me! ”
When the general saw that the two border soldiers were solemn again, he no longer scolded more, and after threatening, he walked forward.
After walking for about two or three minutes, I couldn't see the figure.
One of the border soldiers who was scolded suddenly spit out disdainfully.
"False seriousness."
"The princes have fallen, and they still feel that they are majestic."
Scolding and scolding, this border soldier, with a disdainful expression.
"Without saying a word, the prince fell. Before the dragoon general fell, they could all show off their might. ”
"Bear with me, being a soldier is the same everywhere."
Another frontier soldier comforted and pointed out the plight of the two.
The wind whistled and blew away the conversation between the two.
The Imperial Dragoons stood on a lookout behind the city walls, listening to the words of the two border soldiers.
"Ugh."
Bane Hamm sighed and raised his hand against the side wall of the lookout.
"General, do you need me to take their lives?"
A knight with a solemn military face, a tall figure, and a huge thick shield on his back, spoke with great authority.
"That's it."
"There's no one who doesn't discuss that now, so many people, can you all take your life?"
Bain Hamm was clearly well aware of the situation, but there was nothing better to do.
"Is it really the prince's treason?"
The general's words were full of hesitation.
"If the emperor says so, let's believe it."
"Do our duty, we are loyal to the country, the emperor, not the prince."
"No matter how close the relationship is, don't go beyond it."
Bain Hamm's tone was bitter, but his words were firm.
This is an Imperial Dragoon who is loyal to the Empire and to the Emperor.
"Then your sister-in-law....aren't we going to take revenge?"
The knight gritted his teeth and asked a sharp question again.
"Ugh..."
"How to get revenge?"
"They're already from the Empire, too."
"Unless ......."
Bane Hamm looked up, staring at it without fear of the scorching sun overhead.
The sparks of the sun burned violently, reflecting into the eyes of the Imperial Dragoons, like fireworks about to explode.
"Report!"
It was at this moment that a herald-like frontier soldier ran up to the lookout, followed by a herald in similar attire.
"Well, it's the appointment."
Bane Hamm heard a loud announcement, withdrew his gaze from the sun, and turned to face the heralds.
"By His Majesty's decree, first take the dragoon border army, immediately advance to the southwest, and change guards with the southwest pit viper border army!"
The herald, who had traveled thousands of miles, began to read the edict the moment Bane Hamm turned around.
After reciting, he directly handed over the Yu Ling, then bent down and saluted, and turned away.
"Hey... Why did you just leave? ”
"It's... So there are no rules. ”
A young knight who was silent, standing next to the Imperial Dragoon and the Thick Shield Knight, saw the herald from the imperial capital so rude at this time. After reciting the edict, he turned to leave, and did not greet the Imperial Dragoon at all, and immediately felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"It doesn't matter."
"Assemble the army, and we'll leave immediately."
Bain Hamm didn't say much, but just stopped and signaled that everyone didn't need to pay much attention, and took the lead in reorganizing the army.
Soon, the 150,000 dragoon frontier troops followed the generals of Bane Hamm along the border line towards the Nanmarsh Gorge, where the southwestern frontier army was located.
The same transfer, almost on the same day, took place at different border guards.
Like a big rotation, from north to southwest, the entire border defense rotation went around.
When a big move changes the guard, anyone who has a heart will think about the reasons.
Generals are no exception.
The conclusion of the discussion in the whispers of the march was that His Majesty the Emperor did not trust the Imperial Dragoons.
The reason is naturally that in that treasonous war, the sister-in-law of the imperial dragoon did not surrender to death.
Naturally, it was also because of the close relationship between the Imperial Dragoons and Prince Romney.
Although everyone acquiesces to this in private, Bane Hamm does not agree with this statement.
He is still conscientious and conscientious.
