Volume II, Chapter 25: A New Beginning of Destiny

At the beginning of September of the first year of the Gregorian calendar.

Before setting off, Fan Ming officially organized the Free Legion to set foot to retake Rhodok in Viruga, and before leaving, Fan Ming gave his last speech to the soldiers who were about to embark on the expedition in Viruga.

Fan Ming stood at the head of the city, and under the city were 10,000 imperial soldiers who were fully equipped to fight, as well as countless imperial citizens, and their eyes were looking expectantly at the head of the city, the monarch they admired.

"Warriors, remember that a month ago, when I had just recaptured Viruga, I said that one day I would lead the legions against Rhodok, drive the cowardly lords out of the land of the holy Rhodoc, liberate the people who were in deep distress, and glorify our Holy Rhodok Empire!

And today! In the same place, I will fulfill my promise! From today, I will lead you on a glorious journey, and from today, we will prove our own courage with the blood of the enemy! From today onwards, honor will be higher than a qiē! Freedom will be our life!"

Fan Ming drew his sword, pointed his sword to the sky, and said to the soldier in a loud voice: "Now, let us swear under the banner of the Empire! We will level the enemy's castle and pierce their hearts with our sword, and we will unite the whole of Rhodok! Warriors!

The shouts of 10,000 people shook the sky and echoed through the hollow, and the sound would surround the sky over the entire Rhodok, and would become a witness of history and blood.

10,000 imperial troops, the mighty departure, Fan Ming also rode his BMW battle spirit and prepared to move forward under the support of the guards. This horse was also the one of the captured Stama who, thanks to the battle in the valley, showed his extraordinary spirituality. So he became Fan Ming's mount, and the war spirit was given the name by Fan Ming, which made him particularly powerful.

Coming to the official who saw him off, Fan Ming looked at Yamila, whose eyes were slightly red, and leaned over to leave a kiss on his forehead, "Wait for me to come back! I will marry you!" Such a simple parting sentence tied the two hearts deeply. Even if you are far away, you can feel the true feelings of the other party.

"My Excellency, Prime Minister, my home will be handed over to you when I leave!

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I'll take care of this place!" In fact, there is no need for Fan Ming to say, he is also very confident in Ben's governance ability, and it can be seen from the recent period that he has almost everything covered. Bandas couldn't get his hands on it at all. So he could only follow the expedition and also be a military advisor.

At this moment, a person suddenly ran in the distance, followed by four people, carrying an object in their hands, and kept shouting.

Fan Mingding took a look! Good fellow, it turned out to be Ali, if he didn't come again. Fan Ming had already forgotten about him! As for that bet, Fan Ming had also forgotten all about it.

"Oh! It's Ali! I'm going to go on a journey! What's the matter?" Fan Ming looked at Ali, who was running extremely wolfly. I secretly thought it was funny.

"Of course, have you forgotten the agreement between us!" Ali said angrily.

"Haha, of course you haven't forgotten it! Could it be that Mr. Ali has already made a weapon?" Fan Ming looked at the big wooden box behind Ali in confusion, carried by four people together, he had already decided that since Ali was coming to him now, there was a chance that this box was the weapon he had built.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Such a trivial matter is not difficult for me Muhammad Ali! You must know that I am" was about to say, but when he saw that Fan Ming was sleepy when he heard his nagging, he had no choice but to give up, and then pointed to the wooden box behind him and said, "Your Majesty, please see! This is the weapon I made for you!"

Saying that, Ali opened the wooden box, at this time, a silvery-white, nearly two meters long giant halberd appeared in front of him, to say that it is a halberd is also very reluctant, but there are three points like a fork, but it is a huge horn-like blade on both sides, which looks very powerful and domineering.

When Fan Ming was looking at this four-dissimilar weapon in a daze, Ali ordered someone to take out the weapon, and it took four people to move: "This is the weapon forging technique I learned in the distant East, this weapon weighs ninety pounds! And it is made of the hundred refined steel taught by His Majesty to the blacksmiths, which is extremely sharp! I just don't know if His Majesty can lift it!"

Ah Li looked at Fan Ming with a majestic look, which seemed to mean 'I have made the thing!' Now it's up to you whether you can use it or not, I don't care if it's ugly."

Fan Ming could see Ali's expression, but he didn't pursue it, and had already paid attention to the weapon.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he snatched the weapon from the hands of the four people, and danced in his hands, his tremendous strength was just worthy of this artifact!

At this time, Ali looked at Fan Ming's might, and knew that he wanted him to make a fool of himself, and his plan to dismiss his face that day had failed, so he had to turn around and leave, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Fan Ming.

"Ali, I will not break my promise with you!" and then said to Ben: "From now on, Muhammad Ali will be the Empire's Inspector of Manufacture, in charge of the manufacture of all weapons and instruments in the Empire!

"Your Majesty!" heard Fan Ming's words, Ali didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to silently redden.

"Do a good job, I'm still waiting for you to make me a better weapon!" Fan Ming turned and left.

Looking at Fan Ming's back, Ali swore that he would devote his life's skills to repay this person who favored him!

The army set out in this way, and the citizens who saw them off behind were all in tears, and the soldiers looked at their distant hometown, with only hope for the future in their hearts, and they knew that this would be a new beginning in their destiny

Mid-September of the first year of the Gregorian calendar.

Fan Ming led an army of 10,000 along the line of Ziza and Fidenne to march to Marasburg, and Fanming's intention was to directly capture Marasburg, so that the Kurmo Fort, which had long been without a lord, would surrender. He could attack Aaron directly from the main road between the two, and * the royal family of Carmon abdicated, so that at least half a month's journey would be saved. Let the royal family have no respite! As soon as he ascends the throne, the lords of other places will surely come down to the wind! At that time, he will be the true emperor of the Holy Rhodoc Empire.

The army besieged the castle, but did not attack it until the evening of the first day, after the siege of the city for three days.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, there are more than 300 troops in the castle, and we have 10,000 troops. The lord of the place must have been alarmed, and my brother must have gathered all his knights into the castle, and the number should be about thirty. This is the most elite force in the castle, and the others are the castle guards. Melni briefed Van Ming about the castle.

"Oh, and the knights!, so they haven't died yet!" asked Fan Ming, who had faced the knights twice in the three battles he had experienced. Well aware of the metamorphosis of knights.

"Yes. On the mainland, every time you go on an expedition with the king, you have to leave more or less knights on your back cover to prevent riots or emergencies, and you should know that the loyalty and force of the knights are enough to make the peasants tremble!" Melny explained.

"Ah, yes, damn knight, if it's in my hometown, I'm sure I'll not live more than three days! Let's talk about the structure of the castle again!" said Fan Ming.

"Yes, there are two trebuchets in the castle. Here and here, respectively, these are the two corners of the castle, and there is an arrow tower, which stands in the center of the castle and covers the entire perimeter of the castle. Melny said, pointing to the location on the map.

"Ah,! Who arranged this defense, it's too perfect!" Fan Ming shouted in an atmosphere, you must know that this is a castle built on a mountain, it is not easy to attack, and with such a good defense, the price to pay to capture this place is unacceptable to the legion!

"Your Majesty, I beg your pardon, this was arranged for me when my father was still alive," Melny said guiltily.

"Ah, you, hehehe, very good, very good!" Fan Ming was embarrassed for a while, and he was still scolding just now, but now his face was as red as a monkey's ass.

"Your Majesty, this must not be forced! If that is the case, even if our number is dozens of times theirs, this will not be something that can be solved by numbers!" Bandas said thoughtfully, looking at the map.

"Nonsense! I'm not stupid! I've been farting for so long, do you have a good solution?" Fan Ming asked Bandas with an unanswered expression.

"Yes, there is a way!" said Bandas as if to mean something.

"Oh!haha! A military advisor is a military advisor, and it depends on you at a critical moment! Come on, let's talk about it!" Fan Ming said excitedly.

"Of course! My solution is simple, but it's also complicated!"

"Then pick the important ones!"

"Well, we want to take Marasburg, and the main purpose is to take the way, and the way to take it is to pass through Guò and then march to Aaron!

"Say it quickly!"

"Then take the next route! Or take the line of the Sauron River, it's okay to go! You can also enjoy the scenery and ah, ah, ah, my majesty xià, I made a mistake and gave up my life, my majesty xià beat people."

In fact, Bandas didn't have a good plan, he just wanted to entertain the public and whet everyone's appetite, but it was enough to play Fan Ming, so Fan Ming didn't wait for him to finish, he took off his boots and picked them up, and then Bandas fled with his head in his hands, "What a bullshit military division! Purely a drunkard!" Fan Ming yelled outside the account, and the soldiers passing by were not surprised, because in the barracks, almost every day, Fan Ming violently knocked Bandas out of the account.

And Bandas also took pleasure in this, and when he came out, he went to steal soju from the wine cellar with him, even Fan Ming couldn't help him, "Your Majesty, if you can trust me, give me fifty people, I know a gap in the castle, I once built yì for my father to repair, but he didn't pay attention at the time, I think it hasn't been blocked yet, as long as I can get in, I will definitely be able to take advantage of the night to kill him! As long as I kill him, the other soldiers will definitely surrender when they see me!" Melny said firmly, her eyes looking at Fan Ming, full of anticipation. (To be continued......)
