Piles of bonfires had risen before night had completely fallen, and the army of the Starlight Kingdom had finished camping.

The camping place is still more than 60 kilometers away from the northern border, and in one day, Wang Shi can reach the northern border town, Xueman Town.

The news that Xueman Town has publicly opposed Bernaventur IV has been known to everyone, Xiu Yin does not know what kind of attack Bernaventur IV will launch in Xueman Town at that time, according to the news that Xiu Yin has learned, the Motu Empire at this time is farther away from Xueman Town, that is, Wang Shi will arrive in Xueman Town one step ahead of the Motu Empire.

At night, the sky is full of stars, and most places in the Starlight Kingdom can enjoy the beautiful starry sky, and at this time, the Starlight Kingdom originally wanted to turn all the lands where the beautiful starry sky can be seen into its own territory.

After a hundred years of operation, the Starlight Kingdom has indeed done it, with Starlight City as the center, you can see the gorgeous starry sky at night on the land within a radius of 100 miles.

......

Bernaventus IV held military councils with the military attachés and lords of the kingdom in the lord's tent, and a minor lord of the rank of Xiuin was not qualified at all, so he could only sit around a campfire with three of his men and twelve mercenaries.

After three days of contact, Xiu Yin and the mercenaries exchanged a lot of words, and a trace of trust between them began to gradually arise, in front of these uncles, Xiu Yin They still learned a lot in the communication with the mercenaries.

In order to facilitate the overall management in wartime, the sixteen of them were incorporated into the warrior regiment of the Haider Dominion, and they happened to be on the same team as Captain Kassel, but Captain Cassel was not the head of this team.

Every hundred people is a war group, every five war groups is five hundred people as a team, excluding the mage team and logistics personnel, the Starlight Kingdom has organized more than forty teams.

The captain of the squad on their side was Richard Lanciusto, the deputy head of the Knights of the Bones.

As a lord, Xiuin had the privilege of judging alone in wartime, and Xiuin could lead his men in a military campaign alone when necessary, so that the result would be a victory, but if the military action had a negative impact on the entire war, the king would personally pronounce the sentence on Xiuin's guilt.

Xiuin hadn't really seen the wars of this era yet, but soon, at dusk the next day, Xiuin began to see them.

Peace has been a long time, and many young people have never seen war, but this does not prevent some veterans in the army from playing.

As the army of the Starlight Kingdom began to fan out in the south and began to surround the town of Snowman, all the procedures of the war were going according to plan.

Led by Captain Lanciusto, Huin and their brigade marched from south to east to encircle the eastern side of the town of Snowman.

Xueman Town is not big, but it is not small, as a border town, Xueman Town has some advantages that belong to it.

The population is large, mainly floating population, but slowly there will always be some people who feel a sense of belonging here, so the town has unknowingly grown to the size of 40,000 people, like a small city, with three meters high walls, proving that it really should not be called a "small town".

Xueman Town is located on the border, mainly relying on the exchange of goods at the border, technical secondary school, import and export of domestic and foreign goods and other economic activities to obtain income.

Originally, there was an administrator who only belonged to Starlight City, and there was a relatively complete town management system, but when the eldest prince Lance absconded here, all the officials here welcomed Lance's arrival as if it was premeditated.

And the armed forces in the town also seem to have been prepared, a thousand soldiers with weapons and armor, a thousand mercenaries who have already been here for a long time, and even three hundred cavalry.

The three-meter-high city wall, which can be described as impregnable for a small town, especially when Xiu Yin frowned and looked at Xue Man Town from afar, Xiu Yin felt that things were not simple, especially when the "silver pupils" magnified the soldiers of Xue Man Town standing on the battlements, Xiu Yin found that the armor on their bodies seemed to have been completed recently, and the strength was higher than that of ordinary kingdom armor.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sun had not yet set, Bernaventur IV sent an envoy to the town of Xueman.

"Handing over the eldest prince Lance can absolve all the officers and soldiers in Xueman Town from the crime of rebellion. ”

The last to fly out of the town was the head of the messenger and the shouting of the eldest prince standing on the battlement.

"Lords and uncles of the Starlight Kingdom, as well as lovely warriors, that old guy beside you is him, he is no longer my former father, he has now occupied my father's body, and he has devoured his father's kind soul......"

The voice of the eldest prince Lance echoed inside and outside the snowy city, and the voice was somewhat clear, it should have been blessed and amplified by some kind of wind magic, so that the sound could travel farther and louder.

"Shut up, it's clear that your heart is eroded by demons, don't we know that our father is still a wise and martial artist!"

The second prince, who was beside Bernaventus IV, shouted, and his voice was also amplified by the spell cast by a magician beside him, interrupting Lance's words.

Seeing his brother Lance's voice interrupted, the second prince was very proud, he knew that his father intended to wear the throne on his own, and since he was a child, he had been silently supported by Bernaventur IV, just like the guards around him, not only powerful knights, but also the magister-level mage who had just released the amplification magic.

The third prince immediately showed some displeasure on his face when he saw his second brother leaking his face first, while the fourth prince Trogg still maintained a cold face, he stared at the eldest prince Lance on the battlements, and came up with a word in his heart, "Joker." ”

Perhaps apart from Bernaventura IV, Trog knows best what kind of goods Lance is.

When did he become so articulate, and when did he have the courage to climb the city wall and face the thousands of troops below?

You must know that during the autumn ceremony, the square was surrounded by nothing more than the lords of the Starlight Kingdom, and the eldest prince Lance was timid.

Aside from being heavier than his younger brothers, Trogg couldn't think of anything he could do to add to Lance.

The contrast between before and after made Trog already guess, and King Bernaventur IV must have known that there was someone behind Lance who was seducing him.
