Chapter 268: Heavenly Change

In the summer of the ninety-third year of the kingdom calendar, the Capetian family sent cavalry to attack the fortress of Passon, the defenders resisted hard, and then encountered a sneak attack, the defenders of the city under the leadership of the governor of Langton, and the enemy started a street battle, and the battle lasted until early in the morning, the defenders of the city were killed and wounded more than half, and finally lost, and the survivors surrendered to the Capetian family under the leadership of the officer.

The next day, the fortress of Passon fell, and the 1st Legion of the Capetian family set out from the Imperial City, the 7th Legion was ordered to stay in Lindong, and the 2nd Legion sailed down the river to target the city of Mera.

After learning the news, Duke Para was also shocked, the loss of the Passon Fortress is a signal, the inherent forces in the Tieliu Kingdom will change again, and now the Capet family has shown its fangs to itself, I am afraid that what he will face next is the biggest crisis in his entire life.

In the entire iron stream, no one dared to say that they were confident that they could face the Capet's soldiers alone, and even the Norrington family, known as the king of the east, did not dare to extend their tentacles to the north even one centimeter, for fear of angering the behemoth of the Capet family.

In today's Tieliu Kingdom, the Capetian family is an unstoppable lion, in the past years, it has eaten one grand duke after another, occupied the most prosperous cities, and everyone knows what its ultimate purpose is.

The throne that once belonged to it, the supremacy of the iron stream.

With its claws and fangs, it tore to shreds the guys who dared to peep into its throne, and in twenty years, it split the complicated situation and the iron flow of warlords into several pieces, and eliminated most of the families who dared to compete with it for interests.

The ambitious, the arrogant, the insidious and cunning have been turned into dust in history under the iron heel of the Capetian family.

But it still has opponents.

The Duke of Parra, who occupied the west, Norrington in the east, was driven to the Arashi ruble on the border.

By the way, there is also the current King of Iron Flow, the Cardin royal family.

Only by sweeping away all these opponents can the Golden Lion become a veritable king of this land!

"I guess my father would never let go of this opportunity, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon!" Ron stood at the head of Lindong City, watching the large ships carrying soldiers fill the river, "The first and second ace legions have been dispatched one after another, and it seems that the fall of Mera City will not be long in coming." ”

At sunset, there were more than fifty large ships in the river with a length of more than fifteen zhang, and the stern followed the bow of the boat, and the deck was full of heavily armed soldiers, and even the cavalry could run freely on it.

The scales are shining, and the sun shines on the surface of the water like a golden river.

At the front of the flotilla were light ships for pathfinding and reconnaissance, and on either side there was a fleet of warships for defense, and countless golden flags fluttered on the water.

Ron looked at this scene, with some nostalgia in his eyes, since the Duke of Winton was stationed in the Imperial City, he didn't know how long it had been since he had dispatched an army of this size, and the last time it seemed to be when he annihilated the Duke of Thine, right?

Come to think of it, it's been eight years.

For eight years, under the restrictions of the Holy See, the Capetian family has been silent for too long.

When the Duke of Winton led his army against Tieliu, no one in his generation could resist his troops, and he broke the city everywhere he went, and even the Duke of Kenlin, who was the most powerful at the time, was defeated by the Capetian family.

"If it weren't for the intentional indulgence of the Holy See, perhaps my father's rise would not have gone so smoothly. Ron smiled, the situation in the Tieliu Kingdom was complicated, there were many warlords and they didn't listen to the royal family's orders at all, in order to solve this problem, the Holy See deliberately indulged the warlords in the fight, trying to make them consume each other, and finally the royal family controlled by the Holy See could benefit from it.

But what the Holy See didn't expect was that the Capetian family quickly became powerful at an unimaginable speed, and the Duke of Winton, who had defeated countless opponents, had become the most powerful force in the Iron Flow Kingdom, and even threatened the rule and status of the Holy See.

The shepherd policy of the Holy See has bred a lion that even they cannot subdue.

Then came the world-famous battle for power, in which the majesty of the Holy See was brought to the bottom.

Fifty thousand crusaders, hundreds of paladins, plus one to adjudicate the life of the archbishop.

Winton Capet proved that the Holy See is not invincible.

But the cost of victory was equally devastating for the Capetian family, with nearly half of the Seven Legions lost, and during that time, the Capetian family's territory shrank dramatically, and many of the families who took advantage of the fire to take advantage of the opportunity to encroach on the Capets' lands and mines.

It was also from that time that the Capetian family entered a period of recovery from a years-long silence, and the other families in the Tieliu Kingdom were also relieved, at least for a short time, not to have to face this terrible enemy again.

"For eight years, since I took over the Seventh Legion, I've been thinking about this picture all the time," Ron's eyes were very exciting, excited, and expectant, "The golden lion banner all over the sky, planted at the highest city, our name will leave the strongest mark in the history of the Tieliu Kingdom......"

It's a good feeling, and Yazov resonates with the images in Ron's description, who wouldn't want to be a pioneer of an era themselves.

To be a man, a soldier, a knight, this is simply the highest level of glory!

But he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart: "The order given by Lord Duke to the Seventh Legion is to stay in Lindong City, and in a short period of time, I am afraid there will be no room for us to exert themselves." ”

The three ace legions of the Capetian family, the first legion went to the city of Mera, the second legion was responsible for receiving support, and the seventh legion, although the task seemed to be easy, but in fact it was more dangerous than the former.

Although the Holy See army was pinned down by Iron Rock City and Void Ancestor, it still had some remaining strength, and for such an organization that was entrenched above the Five Kingdoms, any contempt would lead to serious consequences.

Moreover, the news of the Capet family's attack on Mera City will soon spread, which is bound to attract the attention of other families.

The Capetian family's intentions are obvious, and when the city of Mera is conquered, they will definitely think about whether the Duke of Winton's attack will become themselves next.

With this in mind, it is likely that these families who do not want to be destroyed will unite and harass the Imperial City while the Capetian family attacks the city of Mera.

These small families are not terrible, even with Norrington and Arashi on the border, Ron has the confidence to deal with them, but the only thing that worries him is that the Holy See will definitely have a spare hand on Tieliu.

Those crusaders, even if Ron stood from the enemy's point of view, had to admit that they were also the top combat power on the continent.
