Ten years ago, a new round of fierce battles between the Northern Plains and the Neighboring Kingdoms north of the Staonian Empire had just ended. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and wait for His Royal Highness to check it. An officer hurriedly commanded.

"Yes. “

At this time, a hand reached out from his back, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "After so many years of fighting, it's the first time I've seen you so nervous." “

The officer looked back and replied: "General Asasa, this time is different after all, and it is the first time that His Royal Highness the Prince has come directly to the battlefield to announce this kind of thing." “

Lieutenant General Asa smiled after hearing this, and whispered: "Yes, I said that I came by His Majesty's order." After speaking, he looked up at the clouds hanging over the battlefield, and continued: "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse......

"Lieutenant General Asasa, Lieutenant Colonel Elishu has sent me to report that Prince Cassizu's convoy has entered the barracks lookout range and asked for knowledge. "The signal soldier ran to report to Lieutenant General Asasa.

After hearing this, Lieutenant General Asa ordered the soldiers on the battlefield: "All the officers and men above the rank of lieutenant will go with me to greet His Royal Highness. “

"Yes. “

"Selka, you stay and continue the battlefield statistics. However, just as Lieutenant General Asa was about to turn away, Sergeant Sergeant called out to Lieutenant General Asasa, but swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

"After the war, don't forget that we still have a war covenant, don't you want to learn Sakurabukiyuki. After speaking, the nervous expression on his face eased slightly, and he turned around and walked away, accompanied by all the senior officers.

But even though Asa pretended to be fine, everyone could actually feel that this time it was definitely not ordinary.

In front of the main gate of the barracks, Asa led the officers to come.

"Erishu, how's it going. Asa asked the officer who was facing the barracks gate.

"General. As I did not know if the enemy troops would be dormant, I sent an advance team to protect His Royal Highness. Lieutenant Colonel Elishu replied.

"You are right, no matter what important summons His Royal Highness brings to the battlefield in person, we must ensure the safety of His Highness. “

While he was talking, the advance force had returned.

"Return, safely escort His Royal Highness to the barracks. “

"Good ......"

However, before Asa could say anything, a male voice came from a distance.

"Lieutenant General Asasa, isn't it a bit of a fuss to do this? As he spoke, the convoy entered the barracks, and a middle-aged man in a royal dress stepped down from the Chinese military carriage.

"I beg your pardon for being rude, but this is the most tense time of the war, and it is my duty as the commander-in-chief of the army to protect your safety. As he spoke, Asa and the officers behind him knelt down on one knee and saluted His Royal Highness Prince Cassiza.

"Hahaha~. Hearing Asazo's reply, Prince Cassizi looked up to the sky and laughed, and said, "You are the cornerstone of the empire known as the sword of the empire, and with you, who will hurt me." “

"Your Highness is serious. Asa replied.

"Okay, since everyone is here, then I won't delay everyone's time, just announce it here. Prince Cassizi said as he took out a letter from his pocket.

The officers did not get up, but directly listened to the call.

"First of all, I would like to thank all the soldiers for their bloody battles on the front line, it is your dedication that all our people can enjoy the peace and stability you have brought us in the rear, and please continue to work hard in order to achieve the final victory. “

"In the name of the goddess, I will fight for the empire to the last breath. All the officers replied in unison.

Just when everyone thought the call was over.

"Lieutenant General Asasa, there is also a letter from Brother Feng asking me to personally forward it to you. As he spoke, he took out another letter, walked to Asa and handed it to him.

"Brother Huang asked me to tell you, thank you for considering returning to the barracks again for the sake of the empire's peril. Prince Cassa said to Assa.

"As a soldier of the empire, you should build a safe barrier for the empire and the people. Asa replied.

Prince Cassizi smiled secretly and muttered softly: "He is worthy of being an officer I recognize."

Late at night, in front of Prince Cassiza's tent, Asa and Elishu, who were patrolling the night, came over.

"General. The guard in charge of the guard saluted Asasa.

"Your Highness will return to the Holy City tomorrow, and the safety of Your Highness will be left to you tonight, and you can't neglect it in the slightest. Asa admonished.

"Yes. “

After saying that, Asa and Elishu looked around vigilantly to make sure that there was no danger, and then walked away.

"General, what is written in the letter from Your Majesty. Lieutenant Colonel Elishu saw that the boring night patrol was boring, and expressed his inner doubts.

"Your Majesty wants me to return to my original position and continue to serve in the army. Asa didn't hide it and said it directly.

"It's really mixed news. Elishu glanced at Asa and seemed to have read what was on his mind.

Asa sighed and replied, "yes, I really don't know if I should choose to come back." “

"But as your adjutant, I'd love to see you continue to return to the army, and all the new recruits in the army this year have enlisted as soldiers like you. Elishu said proudly.

After listening to Elishu's words, Asa smiled guiltily and replied: "A soldier who can't protect his favorite soldier, what is there to admire." “

"So as your friend for many years, after the end of this battle, it is better to stay in the rear, after Mia's death, Sprouts and Sprouts need you to be by their side more. Alishu said with a frown.

"Let's tell them when I go back this time, I didn't even tell them the reason for coming out this time. Asa sighed apologetically.

"Haha~. Elishu's playful laughter eased the atmosphere, and he said, "As a soldier, especially a soldier like you, there are too many to bear and abandon. “

"Don't talk about that. Asa deliberately put aside the topic, changed the conversation, and said: "With Gretel accompanying the two of them, it can somewhat make up for the guilt that I can't accompany them." “

Alishu patted his forehead, made a headache expression, and said, "This little ghost always looks like a little adult, and only Yasaki will put up with him." “

"But one thing drops one thing, but it is out of its fear of sprouts. “

After a moment of silence, the two of them looked up to the sky and laughed.

"General, General......"

A report came from afar.

Anything can happen in wartime, and when they heard the news, the two immediately put away their original smiles and entered a state of preparation.

"What's the matter?" asked Elishu.

"Prince Cassizi, you can't find Prince Cassizi anywhere......" The soldier gasped and said intermittently.

As soon as the two heard this, they immediately realized that the situation was not good.

"Have there been enemy troops infiltrating the barracks. Erishu asked.

"No, no, there have been no reports of enemy infiltration into the barracks. The soldier replied.

"Elishu, you ordered to immediately organize a force to search for His Highness, I will start the search on the periphery first, and I can't let His Highness have an accident no matter what. Asa instructed Elishu.

"Yes. When Elishu had replied, he ran with the soldiers to the camp.

Without delay, Asa also began to search.

Asa searched all the way to the outside of the barracks, in a dense forest, the faint sound of conversation made Asa stop his pace vigilantly, and hid behind a big tree on the side.

"No one has found out, and there can be no negligence at this critical moment. “

"His Highness Cassizi. Asa quickly heard that it was Prince Cassisa's voice, and just as he was wondering why Prince Cassa was here so late, another person spoke.

"Didn't you tell me before you sent out the army that the Sword Saint Sakura Weigi Asa would also participate in this battle. The other, a little grumbling, complained about Prince Cassion.

Until a glimmer of moonlight came, Asa looked at it, and what surprised him was that the other person was actually an officer of the enemy army.

"Even I didn't expect that Lieutenant General Asa would leave the army since his wife's death three years ago, and I didn't expect that today's campaign would offer to return to the army. Prince Cassizi said.

"You should know what this battle really means. The enemy officer asked.

"Through the war, the weakness of the Imperial Army is exposed, and preparations are made for our final purpose. “

Hearing this, Asa who was hiding behind a big tree could already guess something, although he didn't fully understand what was going on.

"Forget it, although the losses are a bit serious, but, as you said, you have roughly figured out the weakness of the army. The enemy officer laughed.

Hearing the conversation between Prince Cassiazus and the enemy officers, Asa immediately realized that this matter was extraordinary, and that he must report it to His Majesty immediately.

"Lieutenant General Asasa, why are you here. A patrolling soldier walked up behind Asa and asked.

Asa was startled, because he was so engrossed in listening that he didn't notice anyone approaching behind him, but what worried him even more was that the sound from this side had alerted Prince Cassusa, and after glancing at the enemy officer, the officer left in a hurry.

Prince Cassiazus slowly walked over to Lieutenant General Asasa.

Looking at Lieutenant General Asasa with an expression of disbelief, Prince Cassa smiled.

"I didn't want you to know so soon, but it seems that there is no way to do it now. After Prince Cassizi finished speaking, a large number of troops appeared behind him, including Prince Cassizi's personal guards, as well as some enemy troops.

"You are reputed to be the cornerstone of the empire, and I am not difficult for you, as long as you agree to help me, I can not pursue these. Prince Cassizi waved his hand and signaled his troops to stop their offensive against Asasa.

"Hahaha~"

What everyone present didn't expect was that Asa looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.

"Looks like I'm wasting my time. With that, Prince Cassizi waved his hand, and the troops launched an offensive against Asa again.

Seeing that the oncoming troops were getting closer and closer, only to hear the sound of "bang~", a figure quickly appeared in front of Asa and blocked the attack with his own double swords.

"Elishu. Asa said when he saw the person who appeared in front of him.

"Lieutenant General, I'll cover your evacuation. After Elishu finished speaking, he was about to launch an offensive when Asa stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Lieutenant General?" Erishu turned to look at Asa in confusion.

"Do me a favor. “

"Yes, Lieutenant General. “

"I can't escape, even if I escape, Prince Cassizi will definitely make a big fuss, that will only hurt more people, so promise me to rescue Sprouts and Sproutsaki, and in addition, I must find out the evidence of Prince Cassiza's secret collaboration with the enemy country and hand it over to Your Majesty, for the sake of the empire, you must live no matter what." "Asa is obviously a little unable to hold on.

Elishu was about to say something, but Asa stood up with the last of his strength, finally drew his saber, and made up his mind to attack his former comrades.

"I'm giving you a chance...... As long as you go back with me and ask Your Majesty for your guilt, and report the matter to Your Majesty truthfully, I will spare you......"

"Run, run, run......" For some reason, the rebel officers besieging the Asa troops began to panic and kept signaling the front row to retreat, but it was too late.

"I'm sorry, but this is the first time and the last time I've pointed my sword at my comrades. Since I can't stop Prince Cassizi's rebellion, at least I will do my last bit to minimize the harm to Your Majesty here, and I will definitely not let you do anything that harms the empire. “

"Run~" after the rebel officer's last hoarse shout

"Sakura Blowing Snow" accompanied by Asa shouting Sakura Blowing Snow in his mouth, his saber "bang" turned into pink crystals, and after a moment's pause, a large number of cherry blossoms blew towards the enemy army, and suddenly the besieging army was in a mess, and there was a gap for a breakthrough.

"Run, Elishu, Sprouts and Sprouts will be handed over to you. “

Elishu gritted his teeth fiercely, although he was unwilling, but at this time he had to start from the overall situation.

"I'm sorry, Lieutenant General, but when Sprouts and Sprouts grow up, I'll tell them that they have an amazing father. “

Elishu snatched a war horse, did not stop, and immediately ran in the direction of the Holy City.

"Looks like there's no one left to help you. Prince Cassizi said.

"Not necessarily. “

The sudden sound of speech made Prince Cassizi stunned, and with the sound of rushing and killing, the imperial army led the officers to kill.

"It seems that they are all people who will not simply admit defeat, the matter has been exposed, and you can only be eliminated here. After saying that, as soon as Prince Cassizi gave the order, a fierce battle broke out on both sides.

At dawn, Elishu ran back to the Holy City, and when he came to Sakura's residence, he found that there was already a fire in flames, and the sound of killing was shocking.

Elishu didn't hesitate, turned over and dismounted, and drew his Hongyun twin swords to enter the mansion.

Elishu killed an officer and soldier with a single sword, and asked eagerly to the chamberlain, "Where are the sprouts and sprouts?"

"No...... I don't know, these officers and soldiers are so terrible, don't kill me...... Don't kill me......" After saying that, the squire, who had a nervous breakdown, ran away.

"Damn. Alishu frowned and cursed viciously, and continued to kill towards the inner court, and kept shouting: "Sprouts, sprouts, Gretel......"

"Father, I'm here, and so is Misaki. “

A little boy's cry was heard in the distance, which made Elishu ecstatic.

After Elishu went all the way to the living room where the sound came from, a little boy hiding in a hidden place looked around alertly, and after making sure that there was no danger, he led a little girl of about the same age and walked out.

Seeing that the little girl was not hurt, Elishu hugged the little girl and kept chattering: "Thank you Goddess, fortunately you were not hurt." “

But when I calmed down and looked at the little girl, I found that her eyes had brightened due to fright, and she was so frightened that she kept trembling, and kept saying, "Don't, don't ......"

At the same time, the sound of more officers and soldiers coming from behind him was heard.

"No, we have to leave right away, where's the sprout?" asked Elishu to Gretel.

"Sprouts said she wanted to protect Sproutsaki, so she rushed out alone, and I don't know where she is now. Gretel said with tears of self-reproach.

Seeing a steady stream of officers and soldiers coming behind him, Elishu finally made a difficult decision.

"It's important to take Sprout Saki away now, let's go first, Sprouts will be safe. “

"Nope. Unexpectedly, Glitter resolutely denied Erishu and replied: "Father, you take Sprouts away, I must find the sprouts." “

"Now is not the time to be reckless, too much has happened in the Empire. “

But in the face of Elishu's persuasion, Glitter was still bent on finding the sprouts and tried to break free of Elishu's hand several times, until a "pop~" sound, Elishu's big hand slapped Grett in the face.

Looking at his son's red cheeks, with a puzzled expression, he said: "From today onwards, I want you to swear that no matter everything, you must protect Yasaki and take the safety of Yasaki as your own responsibility." As he spoke, he killed a wave of officers and soldiers who rushed towards him.

"Where's the teacher, where is the teacher?" said Gretel, looking around for Asasa's figure.

Elishu gritted his teeth, stopped talking, and took Meisaki and Glitter out with him.

"Kill them, Your Majesty has an order, Lieutenant General Asa secretly collaborated with the enemy to plot a coup d'état against the empire, and now the Sakura Weimu family is convicted of treason, and everyone is killed. The officers and soldiers who came to the running kept shouting.

"It seems that Prince Cassizi has been prepared for a long time, and the presence of the general will indeed become a stumbling block to his coup, and if he can't win over the general, he can only eliminate him. After saying all the speculation, Elishu couldn't help but worry about Asasa's safety again.

"Father. “

It wasn't until Gretel's shouts brought Elishu back to his senses that the officers and soldiers on the opposite side were working together to attack Elishu.

Hongyun double-clicked. The Hongyun double sword in Ai Lishu's hand danced a sword flower, and a sword qi hit the officers and soldiers, and the qi wave generated by the powerful sword qi knocked several rows of officers and soldiers to the ground.

Taking advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers did not dare to step forward for a while, Elishu took Meisaki and Gretel to fight their way out of the siege and escape from the holy city.

The next day, the Holy City posted the Emperor's List:

Because Lieutenant General Sakura Weimu Asa secretly collaborated with the enemy to launch a coup d'état against the Empire, and was discovered by Prince Cassiazus, a loyal supporter of the Empire, at a critical moment, Lieutenant General Asa has been executed in the Northern Plains.

Looking at the contents of the Imperial List, the people of the Holy City shed tears.

In the northern plain, after hearing the execution order from the monarch, Lieutenant General Asasa, who was already covered in wounds, gave up the last counterattack and finally sighed.

"As a soldier, sometimes I can't gain the trust of my loyalists, which is far more painful than death, I don't hate Your Majesty, I don't hate this country, I only hate my own powerlessness to turn the situation around, the future era, the future empire, the future peace, I will entrust it to you. After saying that, he raised his sword and committed suicide.

Looking at the sunset in the distance, Elishu gritted his teeth viciously and cursed bitterly: "The goddess won't let me die here, and I will spend the rest of my life seeking justice for the general." “

"Father, father, come here, Misaki seems to have a fever and her head is very hot. “
