138: The former Principality of the Eagle
There are many people who have such thoughts with Aslan, but no one has brought it up, not because she is the little princess who is the favorite of His Majesty the Emperor, but because there are actually two paladin guards by this little princess.
Standing up at this time, it is no different from looking for death, and if you can be the master, how can you be an idiot.
Alafa, who was on the stage, was wearing a silver light armor, her eyes looked around, and she said: "On behalf of the empire, I would like to thank the lords from far away for putting aside the tedious affairs at hand and rushing all the way to the imperial capital to fight the rebels with us. Thank you. ”
After Arafa finished speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone in the audience.
This woman is quite good at winning people's hearts, and at first she appeased everyone with tenderness.
"Everyone knows that our enemy this time is Duke Mychero Mister of the Rebel Empire. They are now south of the Rhinegu with his army of 400,000 men, and will soon be pointing their swords at our imperial capital. Arafa said in a dignified tone.
400,000, that's a lot of troops. It's amazing how two states, Arizona and Walda, can have so many troops.
"However, don't worry, our Imperial Army has a total of 400,000 troops, and they are all well-trained elite generals, as well as specialized mage troops. Add in the 250,000 troops that have now been assembled here, and we have 650,000 troops. Against the rebels who have traveled thousands of miles to get here, do you think we are completely sure? There was a hint of a smile on Arafah's face.
I don't know why, Aslan's intuition told him that what this woman said carried a lot of lies, Aslan had studied it before, and the imperial capital army could have taken advantage of the previous rebels to assemble on the north side of the Rhinegu River, and rushed to the south of the Rhine River as quickly as possible to use this natural barrier to arrange the defense line, so as to ensure that the emperor was not threatened, but also to resist the offensive of the rebels.
However, the rulers of the empire did not do this, but shrank their forces and gathered in the imperial capital, and joined up with the troops from all over the country to have a decisive battle with the rebels who crossed the river.
In this way, although it seems that the imperial army has a great advantage in terms of strength, the enemy is not vegetarian, and the result is that as long as the generals of the rebel army are not fools, then even if the imperial army wins, it will pay a great price.
"I will also announce the arrangements for the lords and nobles here. According to the usual management, the troops of the lords of the eastern states are all under the command of Lord Latus, the army of the lords of the western states is under the command of Lord Sadley, the troops of the lords of the southern states are under the command of Lord Caldwell, and the army of lords of the northern states is under the command of Duke Elarik, and the three dukes are directly under my command like the imperial army. I will lead you to the glory you have thought of, and show the rebels how powerful we are. Arafa said in a provocative tone.
"Long live the Empire, long live the Empire. ”
............
After Arafa continued to say a few words, and after announcing the order that the day after tomorrow was the time to send troops, he let the lords disperse.
Aslan followed Ederson out of the barracks and walked in the direction where his army was resting, and said as he walked Aslan: "I didn't expect us to accept the command of that Caldwell, I remember that you Glamis Fort don't seem to have a good relationship with those people." Aslan is right, as mentioned in previous intelligence, there has always been a contradiction between Fort Glamis, the largest city in Andra State, and the Buck Duchy, which is adjacent to Andra State.
Edson smiled and said: "This is not a secret in the southern region, according to my father's generation, the Bucks Principality and the Eagle Principality are feuds, the two sides have fought for decades, if it is not for the death of the previous Grand Duke, the Eagle Principality will not be cut, and the later Gramisburg was given to the meritorious general Duke Anders, it can be said that the later Gramisburg has nothing to do with the Eagle Principality." They even sent someone who offered to protect Fort Gramis, but we needed to pay them regular tribute. I don't know why, although Aslan looked at Ederson with a smile on his face, but there was an angry look in it.
Is this an aristocratic protection fee?
"Duke Anders refused?" Aslan said.
"Of course, how could Duke Anders accept such a condition, wouldn't that mean that we in Gramisburg would be subservient to their Duchy of Bucks? Edson shook his head and said.
"And then, didn't they trouble you?" Aslan asked.
"I've looked for it, and we almost had an armed conflict between us, but then it slowly faded, and we thought everything was over. But who would have thought that suddenly there was a year, it was the year of the martial arts conference, and their bucks principality actually sent more than a dozen masters to participate in secret, once they met the local warriors of Glamis Fort, they all killed them, and my father was killed at that time. Edson said this, his fists clenched.
"What are the people of the Bucks Duchy doing here?" Aslan asked.
In his eyes, the duke of the Duchy of Bucks is simply dead, Fort Gramist has nothing to do with the original Duchy of Eagles, but it is still aimed at Fort Gramis, this is the rhythm of mortal enmity.
"Yes, that's them. They used the people who existed within us to secretly sign up for their people, and as a result, at that conference, sixteen of our local masters in Glamis Fort died, and the remaining few masters who stood out were also poached by them. Edson's fingertips were almost in the flesh.
"Then you didn't settle accounts with them. Aslan said.
"Settle accounts, of course. However, at that time, our Gramisburg had just been rebuilt from the rebellion of the Principality of the Eagle and was in the recovery stage, so Duke Anders suppressed the matter as well. So Duke Anders never mentioned it later. However, Marquis Andre remembered that incident all the time, and from time to time mentioned it to cheer up our younger generation, Marquis Andre said that one day we will kill Julu City, the capital of the Buck Duchy. As soon as Edson mentioned the Marquis of Andrei, his whole person became excited, and it was obvious that this was a fanatical supporter of the Marquis of Andrei.
Aslan pouted, no wonder when Marquis Andre rebelled, so many soldiers responded, it seems that they seized the ideas of the younger generation of Fort Gramis and used them, as for when to take revenge, with the current situation in Fort Gramis, it is very suspenseful.
I didn't expect that this Marquis Andre was not only superior in force, but also very good at playing with people's hearts.
