"The barbarians are coming!"

In the past few days, under the continuous attack of the barbarians, there have been various rumors in the city of Saint-Dantil, some say that the city gate has been lost, some say that the Praetorian Guard has been wiped out, and some people claim to have seen the regent flee with his family.

The fire in many buildings in the royal capital, the continuous shooting of bows and arrows and stones into the city, and the frequent movement of soldiers, further proved the seriousness of the situation, and the nobles and wealthy citizens who had access to the palace had begun to prepare for the escape of the royal capital, but the ensuing decree of the royal palace kept the city gates closed, and the idea of escape was discouraged.

Now the more than ten gates of the royal capital were crowded with people, who complained and cursed the inaction of the soldiers, and the defenders waved their whips impatiently, but to no avail, and the number of people increased, so much that it was necessary to divide an army to expel the people.

The barbarian cavalry outside the city gave the Praetorian Guard a headache, these barbarians came and went without a trace, and the time of appearance was very irregular, sometimes Zhengxiang, who slept at night, was awakened by the alarm bell, and had to wear armor and take weapons to gather on the city wall, and found that the barbarian cavalry only shot a few arrows and ran away, and when they opened the city gate to pursue, they couldn't even see a figure, which was really annoying.

"What do these damn brutes want to do!"

Every soldier thought so, but because it was about the barbarians, they were helpless to deal with it with all their arms every time, and it was really hard to choke after a few days.

In the panicked royal capital, in addition to the news of the barbarian siege, there is a rumor that seems very special.

"His Royal Highness the Prince is coming back!"

"His Highness Julian has won a great victory in Wilenburg!"

I don't know where this news came from, and now the news that the second prince Julian led an army of 20,000 to defeat the hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops has spread all over the royal capital.

The people may not know what His Royal Highness the Prince looks like, and they don't know where Willenburg is, but they know that the barbarians are savage and brave and good at fighting, and even the elite of the regent has never returned, and this news cheered everyone up as soon as it appeared, as if the barbarians like man-eating devils are not invincible, and our Royal Highness the Prince has won a big battle! It is even rumored that His Royal Highness the Prince has killed the barbarian captives, and the heads are piled up in a city!

In the streets and alleys, in the depths of the royal palace, there were whispers in every corner, and Julian's glorious deeds seemed so inspiring in the shadow of the barbarian army that it became more and more outrageous, and several versions have appeared, and there is even a folk tale of a prince who was blessed by the goddess of life to defeat the evil god Dhoritan.

Unlike the city of Saint-Dentier, which is covered with the clouds of war, the rock-solid team is talking and laughing, and the atmosphere is extraordinarily relaxed.

Everyone rode their war horses to keep moving forward at a constant speed, Lin Yiyi fell asleep on the bantam horse sleepily and tiredly, Zhao Ziyu startled the girl when he sneezed, and thought that the barbarians were coming again, and just wanted to take out the arrow but forgot that he was riding a horse, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Zhao Ziyu touched his nose and laughed: "I can fall asleep on a horse, it's the first time I've seen it!" ”

Shi Zhengyang dismounted and lifted the disgraced Lin Yiyi, "Fortunately, the bantam horse has a docile temperament, if you are a war horse for the army, you must have been trampled by the horse's hooves, and the broken arms and legs are light, and if you step on the chest, your life will be gone!" ”

Lin Yiyi patted the soil on her body and lamented: "Why has this copy been riding a horse, have I ridden half the world!" The thighs are worn out with several layers of skin! And it's so boring, it's okay to come to a few barbarians to move your muscles! ”

Mu Lan also smiled: "According to Julian, we will reach the royal capital in another twenty days at this speed." ”

"Twenty more days!" Lin Yiyi had an expression that was worse than death, "Lan Lan, why don't you let me take the barbarian captives to the royal capital!" The march of the large army is too slow! ”

"You can't control so many soldiers, who can listen to you a little girl." Shi Zhengyang shook his head with a smile, "Shen Wei is the best choice, he has military experience, and his performance in Wellenburg was also very good before, those overseers were trained by me and Shen Wei together, with him and those overseers, the barbarian captives can be controlled." ”

Lin Yiyi pursed her lips, but it was rare that she didn't refute, Shi Zhengyang turned to ask Mu Lan, "Shen Wei reported to me by radio that he and the barbarian captives have already harassed the royal capital according to your plan, and he has made a lot of noise, what else will I do next?" ”

"Let Shen Wei not stop, but act extra carefully, don't be caught." Mu Lan pondered, "And those spies who were bought should also be strengthened, before our main force reaches the royal capital, I hope that public opinion can develop according to the rhythm I want." ”

The barbarian cavalry that made the people of the royal capital panic was arranged by Mu Lan, and the various rumors that arose in the city were also her plan, and her purpose was to fight a battle of public opinion in the city of Saint-Dentier.

According to the plot trend, the duel between Julian and the regent Drahy is unavoidable, in the face of the barbarian camp with superior strength, this duel, she hopes that the sooner the better, in Mu Lan's plan, there can only be one ruler in the royal capital of Saint-Dantier, and only then can they be considered to have mastered the "potential", and only by combining the power of Wiellenburg and the royal capital can they have hope of confronting the Zhuo Ruitan barbarians,

Drag the rotten royal capital, which is immersed in singing and dancing, into the war in advance, so that the people will realize the danger of the current situation, the war is just around the corner, the usurper Drahi is incompetent, and our hero, the rightful heir of Northval, His Royal Highness Julian, returns to the royal capital, what a long-awaited bridge.

"The show has just begun."

"What?" Lin Yiyi didn't hear clearly, and looked at Mu Lan suspiciously.

The cold eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, as soon as Lin Yiyi saw Mu Lan's eyes, she knew what she was planning again, and she couldn't help but think of which unlucky ghost was going to be miserably calculated.

Public opinion in the city of Saint-Dantil continued to ferment, Song Yu had already smelled some kind of conspiracy, and suggested that the regent send someone to control public opinion, but the burning houses and collapsed churches really happened, and it was difficult to control speech in this state of affairs.

"Our relatives are dead, the royal capital is also under attack, and you don't go to defend your family and country, but you are busy fighting dissent!"

The intelligence agents who infiltrated the royal capital were specially trained and highly inciting, including the elite scouts of Wellenburg and the displaced and bereaved refugees, who were firmly bound to Julian through their honorary status and the gold coins of Dius, and the people of the royal capital themselves were like frightened birds, and there was no need to deliberately guide them, and rumors of discontent and complaints quickly spread throughout the city.
