Chapter 55: The Restoration Movement
When the Lion Mercenary Group heard this familiar name, Joica's face was full of annoyance, were you the ones who had been harassing Uncle Ben
I'm sorry, forgive my men for their recklessness, and Leonard Green smiled and said to Joyka, though there was no apology in his expression
You say this, I also understand, I have always wondered why a mercenary group figured out that I found Princess Sophia, it turns out that you are the remnant of the former Madan dynasty, Joyka said
What is it called 'remnant' Leonard Green said with an unhappy face, don't forget, you are all the children of the fallen country of the Bole Kingdom, and Leonard Green shook his head and sighed, The saddest thing for the people of a country is to become slaves of the country
Joyka and Monfic looked at each other, waiting for Leonard Green's next words
Twelve years ago, at the turn of the spring and summer of 1675 in the Age of Light, the combined forces of the French Yale Empire and the Kingdom of St. Orofe and the rebel forces within the Kingdom of Pole, led by the Prime Minister Pan Alonda and the Commander of the Steppe Wind Legion, Alex Mawson, crossed the border and invaded the Kingdom of Pole on the night of the Hansar Rebellion on May 9The local lords and nobles either surrendered or dispersed, and even if there were a few who resolutely resisted, they would soon be ruthlessly suppressed by the coalition forces
Within a month, the major cities of the vast kingdom of Pole fell into the hands of the allied forces, and a few months later the entire kingdom fell to the invaders, the third prince of the Fayele Empire, Duris Heath, who placed the crown of the Pole kingdom on his head and proclaimed himself the new king of Pole
Although Duris enacted several important policies to reassure the people, and his new regime quickly gained a foothold, the two main armies of the former Madans, Stardawn and Burning Heart, who had been sent to the Elven Forest to aid the Elven Race against the orc and vampire invasions, refused to recognize the legitimacy of the Heath regime and King Duris I, and used the Moon Rain Republic of the Forest Elves as a rear base to engage in an underground restoration campaign aimed at overthrowing Duris and his Heath regime
Although the new regime in Duris gradually gained the approval and love of the majority of the people due to its proper governance, there was always a part of the old-fashioned Poller who did not agree with the legitimacy of the new regime and did not want to be the people under the new regime, so they secretly crossed the border to take refuge in the Dawn of the Stars and Burning Heart under the fence, and among this group of people were a large number of Silver Lily officers and soldiers who survived the Hansha Rebellion and the Prairie Wind officers and soldiers who were disbanded after the disappearance of Alex Mawson
Such a group of humans living on the edge of the forest have a common title: the Avengers
In fact, for the general public, it is the most important thing to have a stable life, what royal family, what regime does not matter to them, anyway, they can live well, what does it matter which king will rule, since the new regime can make themselves fed, clothed, have a job, and have a place to live, then why should it be overthrown, so although many people have defected to the ranks of the Restoration, the proportion of the overall citizens of the Bole Kingdom is still quite small
If you count the elderly, women, children, and the disabled who cannot fight, the population in the camp of the Revengers is less than 10,000, of which only a few thousand are young and strong men who can fight, how can this power overthrow the powerful new dynasty, so to realize the ideal of Restoration, it is not enough to rely on these passionate Revengers, it must be achieved with the help of external forces, and in that case, the most likely foreign forces to be relied on are only the elves
Therefore, three years later, in 1678, during the Age of Light, when the Forest Elves launched a war of revenge against the Orcs, the two major human groups living at the edge of the forest, the Druids and the Restoration, actively participated in the war against the Orcs
Unlike the Druids, the Druids saw themselves as part of the Moon Rain Republic, and the Avengers only hoped to take advantage of the opportunity to help the elves fight the orcs to gain more support among the elves for future restoration. In the Gobi Plain of Shamania, the Orcs were most fiercely resisted, and the Regents suffered heavy casualties in the face of the fierce Orc army, and many excellent knights and battle-hardened soldiers fell in a pool of blood, such a loss was unbearable for this group of Regents whose overall strength was not strong
What made them even more disappointed was that although they paid a very heavy price, they did not get the help they deserved, because in this war, the forest elves were as badly damaged as them, and now the Moon Rain Republic can only protect itself, if it is impossible to interfere with the outside world, and the forest elves have no obligation to help this group of recovering from their homes and wandering far away, it is good to restore the country and give them a place to live
In addition, there is a huge problem in front of them to restore the country, that is, for whom the king and the prince are dead, although it is rumored that John Duncan rescued Princess Sophia, who was only 8 years old, they also used this clue to find the last place where Duke Duncan fled that day: the village of Searle, but they only found John Duncan's tombstone hidden in many graves in the ruined village of Searle, but Princess Sophia is still missing
It is under this circumstance that the Avengers secretly set up a mercenary group, in honor of John Duncan, the fierce and loyal Lion of Poehler, so they named this mercenary group the Lion Mercenary Group, because they are controlled by a group of people engaged in the secret restoration movement, so the Lion Mercenary Group is so mysterious, the reason why this mercenary group was established in addition to earning funds for the restoration of the country, training troops and other purposes, the Lion Mercenary Group also bears an important task: to find the missing Princess Sophia
