Chapter 256: The Coming Dark Hour
Tarabeheim, now the Supreme Command Center for the Defense of the Great Wall of the Empire, and then Marshal Robert and Commander Chrissy are in charge of directly issuing final combat orders to the five connecting cities, and at the same time, he and the main city of Hawke Province are integrated into one, and its area has long exceeded the area of ordinary cities, becoming the largest city on this continent.
Andrei thought it was Aldolph on the helicopter, but the calculation of the time was not right at all, and only after seeing the iconic Sun Banner did he react that this was Tarabeheim, the original glorious knight city has now become a steel monster lying there with a fierce light, the three-story semi-metal city wall that gradually rises has replaced the original stone wall, the turrets are lined up, the lights are bright, and countless torches will shine here as if it were day, and there will no longer be any forest around the city, and the surrounding environment is endless, It seems that the battle is ready here as well.
The airlift helicopter landed safely on the control tower, and when they stepped off the plane, the two platoons of soldiers who had been preparing for a long time immediately raised their guns and saluted, "Welcome home, heroes!" Although Victoria stopped many times, she was still very moved, the Eye of the Empire badge was a token of the previous king's era, and now it has long been replaced with a more advanced communication crystal as a token, and the members of the Eye of the Empire who have not been replaced are all the deepest buried and most confidential members, and one less one has returned. Their existence is no less than an army, they can't let the hero shed blood and tears, and when they go home, they should look like they go home, which is also a sign of the empire's confidence, this person is a spy, and I am not afraid to announce it to the public when he comes back when he is ordered, are you not convinced? Let's fight! There are no diplomatic disputes in this world, the one with the big fist is the boss, and if he doesn't accept it, he will do it, not to mention that he is a giant who has allied many countries. As for other countries, dwarves? Genie? They don't worry about having such a deep spy lurking, because they can't even get through the door when they look like a human.
After the two had washed up, they were taken to Marshal Robert's private room, where there was prepared food.
"If you don't mind, you can eat and talk." Marshal Berrot extended his hand to the two of them to take their seats.
"Yes! Your Excellency, Marshal! You're welcome! Leah bowed and went straight away, grabbing the food on her plate and gobbling it up.
"I didn't expect us to meet again in this way." Andre pulled out the stool and sat down a little melancholy, looking at the table full of food without the slightest appetite.
"Eat a little, Commander Chrissy was supposed to come, but something delayed temporarily." Marshal Robert opened a bottle of rum and poured it on the two of them.
"Do you have any contact with Holden?"
"No, our previous plan was to wait for the war to start and Leah Weiss forcibly take you out, but we didn't expect Chaos to take control of Holden."
"Chaos? Impossible, how could my Northern Province be infiltrated by Chaos? When Andrei heard this, he immediately questioned angrily, which made it clear that he had no way to govern.
"Based on our intelligence, I'm sorry, but I think you should know that we're not just a spy for Miss Liavis." Robert still takes care of Andre's feelings. But Andrei said it didn't matter. "From our intelligence, we know that when Holden went to collect a village, he met an extremely commanding old man, he was in rags, with a rickety body, a cane, and a crow pet, I can tell you 100% that this is Tzeentch's messenger, he has appeared on the mainland many times, including the division of the empire back then, he also contributed to the trouble."
"Then why don't you explain this to Dimitri Zaye?! Are you going to watch as tens of thousands of soldiers die at the hands of the enemy?!! Andre slapped the table and stood up, and Leah glanced at Andre and continued to gobble it up.
"Our diplomatic envoy can't even enter his palace now, let alone share information with him, and even if he does, what if he does? Holden is his son, and in the great north, isn't it easy to hide someone? Robert finished and took out the contract. I still have a lot of work to do, so let's just say that if you sign him, the empire will recognize you as the supreme ruler of Kislev in the future, and allow you to arm your people. β
"What?! You made me betray my country?! "Andrei thought that the empire just wanted to recruit him, but he didn't expect to directly recognize him as the ruler, didn't this force everyone to think that he was a traitor?
"The Dimitri-Zaye dynasty is doomed to disappear, and when they're finished, Kislev will have to be taken care of, right? Do you want the empire to annex them directly? Based on the character of the people of Kislev, I don't need to say that you should also understand that their treatment in the empire is not too good. The empire will not admit it now, the future, the future means ......"
"Say no more! I wouldn't agree to that!! β
"Put things away, just sign him when you agree, you still have time to think about it, please forgive me for not accompanying me, oh yes, Ms. Leah Weiss."
"Yes! Marshal! β
"Rest well tonight, and you'll have to report to Chrissy tomorrow."
"Yes! Marshal! β
"Also, welcome back..... If ......"
"Bang!" Just as Marshal Robert wanted to persuade AndrΓ© again, the door of his room was suddenly pushed open by a rough forehead.
"Yuan ..... Marshal! When the soldier came in, his face trembled, and he said, "War is coming!" β
"Damn! What's going on! I was only in my room for five minutes! After Robert finished speaking, he quickly rushed out of the room, and did not forget to say, "Take the two of them to the command room!" β
Five minutes later, Marshal Robert arrived in the command room, and everyone inside stood in place, the communication crystal image in the middle of the room was the image of the throne of the Grand Palace, and at this moment only two soldiers in heavy armor stood on either side of the throne, solemn and solemn against the huge griffin banner behind them.
"What is this?" Marshal Robert asked as he entered the room.
"Ten minutes ago, Commander Chrissy sent a continent-wide notice through the Eye of the Empire that His Majesty was about to give a national address and that war was coming."
"Is the communication crystal in the city on?"
"It's been turned on for the first time."
Robert combed his hair with both hands to ease his nervousness, although he had known the news of the Chaos Invasion for a long time, but when it really came, the huge pressure turned into a flood beast and fell from the sky, which made Robert a little breathless.
At the same time, Thorgreen, the High King of Eternal Peak, Orion, the Wood Elf who has established a stronghold in the Southern Wastelands, Dusur, the Treant of Athel Loren, Charlie, the Sovereign of Bretonnia, the Deans of the Military Academy of Magic and the Nymph of the Lake, the Castennes of Duncanhof Castle, and the cities of the entire Continental Alliance have all turned on the Communication Crystal, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor's arrival. And Kislev, there are only three places waiting in the same way, one is the court, one is Holden's room, and the last one is Petrov's room. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
