Chapter 117: Survive
The British army was at the mercy of the castle at Dover. Under the call of King Arthur, almost all the forces of Britain were exhausted, and an army of about 20,000 people came here under the leadership of King Arthur.
Dover is the closest part of Britain to the European continent, and the narrowest part of the English Channel is the Strait of Dover. It is also one of the most suitable natural harbours in Britain to anchor.
That is, the Romans were bound to land in Britain from here.
The Celtic army had been stationed here for almost three days. During these three days, no one appeared impatient. As we all know, this is a critical moment for the survival of the country. Can you survive under the iron heel of the Roman Empire?
The Britons had had enough of Roman enslavement, and none of them wanted to return to the time of division and war before King Arthur's reign, or the oppressive period of Roman rule. The Britons decided to revolt.
There is no reason to retreat, because it was a decisive battle from the beginning. The terrain of Britain was dominated by gently undulating plains, and it was simply impossible to rely on the favorable terrain to hold off the invaders. Once this battle is lost, what will follow is a rout on the plains. Defeated in front of the highly mobile forces of the Romans, even escaping was a luxury.
"Purr!" King Arthur's mount, Don Stalian, snorted heavily. Restlessly, he hugged his hooves and dug back and forth. The humid air of the southern seaside of Britain made this excellent horse uncomfortable.
"Alright, well, be quiet." Artoria gently stroked its mane, trying to reassure the horse. His face was coldly drooping, so serious that people couldn't see a smile. In particular, the two faint dark circles on the eyes are set off by the white skin.
"What's the matter, my king, didn't you sleep well last night?" Merlin asked with "concern". The Knights of the Round Table had all gone to take care of their military affairs, and only a certain national teacher who was fishing was still hanging on to Artoria's place.
"Cut!" After becoming a queen, Artoria treated everyone with a dignified manner, but she couldn't show any kindness to Merlin. "I'm already mature, and I don't need you to teach me anything. Merlin, you have nothing to do all night, what do you want to do in my dreams?! ”
"You're going to call me Melly in the future, I've already said it. No matter how I say it, I'm half of the nightmare bloodline, and if I don't go into your dreams and observe your growth state, I'm sorry for your mentorship? "Merlin went to great lengths to distort the facts." What are you afraid of the two of us? I'm not a man. ”
"Don't lie to me." Artoria is no longer as easy to deceive as she was when she was a child, and she is well aware of the temperament of her unscrupulous mentor. She didn't look at Merlin as much as she did when she was young. It's like ...... Look at the scum!
"Besides......" Merlin glanced wickedly at Artoria's barren breasts, smirking sheepishly, "you've really grown up??? ”
Merlin's salty expression made Artoria feel sick. The complexion is getting worse and worse, the temperature of the air drops suddenly, and the cold ones are dripping.
[Ding~ King Arthur pulled out his sword! 】
“...... Huh! Don't be angry, put your sword down, you have something to say! Merlin took two obscene steps back. Why would Merlin be so cowardly?
[I really want to live for another 500 years!] This is a true portrayal of his heart.
Artoria indifferently put away the sword of victory of the oath, just now she really couldn't help but want to blast a glowing cannon into Merlin's dog face to make her national teacher sober up.
"Okay, okay, you can take your breath." Once again, a formulaic hearty smile hung on his face. Seriously, the psychological quality of this future bastard international cyber scam is really good. (For example, a certain magic king who also loves to fish is fascinated by her, don't want to.) )
"Humph!" Artoria turned her head proudly.
