"My lord, there is the border of the Freedom Alliance ahead, but it was the original. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Mei Long knocked on the carriage window and pointed in a certain direction ahead, and seemed to be in a good mood.

I was sitting by the window of the car at this time, and when I heard Miron's words, I also poked my head out of the window and looked in the direction that Miron was pointing, and not very far ahead, I saw the wall that had once been the alliance between the kingdom and the Free Cities, and I also saw the city of Grandel on the other side of the wall.

"That's right, it's the scope of the alliance, but it's the previous one." At this time, I was in a good mood, and Mei Long's words made me even happier.

Indeed, this was the dividing line between the Liberty Alliance and the Kingdom of Subic, and the kingdom's armies were stationed here, ready to attack at any moment.

In the past, not a single soldier in Grandel could sleep soundly for a day, and in the former Free Cities Alliance, there was not a day when he did not worry about the sudden attack of the kingdom's army. Even if there is a powerful magic defense array to protect it, even if only union is the only way out, the three cities have closed their doors and strictly restricted them, in order to bury the panic in their hearts, the worry about their own safety because of their lack of strength.

Now, though still heavily guarded, the gates of the Grandel are wide open for merchants and transporters to enter and exit, and there is a sense of comfort and comfort that has not been seen in the past ten years. As Mei Long said earlier, the wall that once restricted the development of the Free Cities Alliance has been reduced to monumental ruins, and a new gate is being built, and a market will be built on the ruins of the former kingdom military camp to connect the Free Alliance with outside commerce.

After our last trip north, the scope of the Freedom Alliance advanced to Ankel, and Grandel got rid of the position on the border of the Freedom Alliance, and the entire Freedom Alliance felt a little more secure. And after this trip north, we have pushed the military dividing line to the glory of the former kingdom. The noble lords of Southwestern Subic, as well as the local powers, consciously raised the banner of the Liberty League and pledged allegiance. From the southernmost part of the Free Cities Alliance to the outside of White Oak City, it is now the territory of the Free Alliance, and the people of the Free Cities Alliance before have finally settled down.

The good news of the victory kept coming, and the officials and residents of the alliance were very surprised to look at the newspaper in their hands, which had only been published for less than a month, and discussed with each other how the battle ahead was going and how credible the victory was in the newspaper. But they didn't know that what they thought was an exaggerated battle was actually a modest statement in the newspapers.

Later, the inhabitants of the Freedom League gradually accepted these reports and did not appear overly shocked by the victories in the battles. When the officers and soldiers of the Front Alliance sent back their letters, the people of the Alliance learned that their forces had reached the glory of the kingdom, that is, the White Oak City, which was as famous as the capital.

This confirmed news shocked the entire Liberal Alliance, and even several consuls could not believe their ears. They didn't expect that in just a few months, the Freedom Alliance, a small force that survived under the oppression of the big powers, would beat the giants they once saw all over the ground. People cheered for the victory, and became more concerned about the war ahead, even spontaneously making war donations. Regardless of whether White Oak City can be taken or not, they will remember him as a glorious piece of history.

This time, we don't need to do the publicity we used to do, and we don't have to organize a huge welcome ceremony. We came over in peace, entered the city under the adoring gaze of the defenders, and quickly walked through the streets, through the city. The townspeople were also not as exaggerated and excited as before, they cheered a few times and gave a thumbs up when they saw our troops. The maidens on the street would stuff us soldiers with flowers, and the merchants would give us their best goods as a sign of respect.

We don't need to do the propaganda we did at the beginning of the year, because our image is so ingrained that our strength is obvious to all, no one dares to use their brains against us anymore, and the inhabitants of the Freedom Alliance are finally starting to be proud of the Freedom Alliance. For the recognition of the country, this is the greatest achievement of our war against the Union itself. Only when the people feel recognized by their own country can we be regarded as a truly independent force and truly win the hearts and minds of the people. Not by false acting and false promises, nor by buying by small favors, this is the pride and satisfaction that arises from the heart, which cannot be compared to those combined.

And so, we made our way through the hopeful crowd, heading north from Grandel towards our city.

We also did not leave the various regions of the Liberty Alliance idle during the previous winter's time. Construction is still proceeding slowly, villages and towns that had been damaged and looted have been restored, roads have been cleared with the support of our huge funds, merchants and passing tourists can easily move around, the economy has begun to grow, and the previously homeless can return to their homes and start working and working again, just as they had done before.

The bandits have been eradicated, and the previous bandit leader has become Ron's subordinates, a team of robbers, mercenaries, and some idlers from the countryside with weapons and equipment provided by the Tibetan Soldier City, constantly patrolling the Freedom Alliance to protect the safety of these towns.

Along the way, the villages on both sides of the road have been repaired, the farmers are working hard in the fields, the seedlings of crops are growing vigorously in the fields, and the fields of cultivated land are connected together, forming a very beautiful pastoral landscape. Elderly people can walk around the countryside without worrying about lack of food and the safety of their families, and can even help with farm work. Children can also play freely, and even go to the village part-time teachers to be educated, although it is only a few simple words and sentences, but this is also the previous farming family dare not think.

I enjoyed the moment, leaving the bloody battlefield, not having to listen to the noise of horns and war drums all the time, driving through the country roads in a horse-drawn carriage, greeting you happily everywhere you went, and I really enjoyed the pleasure of being a lord.

The war is over, so let him end. Territory and wealth are fascinating and desirable, but we always need to rest, don't we?
