Chapter 460 No one will stand still being bullied by others, and when you humiliate others, others will fight back
The banner of the Isaac family flutters on the city, and there is a kite shield on the silver edge on a red background, on which depicts a soldier in full armor waving a long sword and cutting off the head of a dragon, this is the banner of the Isaac family, known as the family of Tymons the Dragon Slayer.

The history of the Tymons family can be traced back to the Guangwu period, according to their own words, the Timmons family was the family knight of the god family during the Guangwu period, and won high honors and exploits in battles, and was finally canonized as a nobleman. In the history of the Tymons family, one of the most glorious events recorded is that the fourth generation of the patriarch of Tymons killed an invading dragon.
The fog of history makes it impossible to see the truth, and the Guangwu period has passed so far that even if any scholar were willing to study the origins of the Tymons family, they could not find any written evidence - except for the historical records used by the Tymons family to record history. But no one knows if this kind of self-talking thing is true, and everyone acquiesces to it.
In the period of the Holy Empire, the Tymons family was still one of the great nobles, and the name of the dragon slayer was too loud, and even several faint monarchs during the Holy Empire did not think of using the Tymons family to prove their power and bravery. Until the Holy Empire was overthrown, the Tymons family, who were originally on the side of the Holy Empire, very wisely changed their doors and threw themselves into the arms of the Orlando Empire.
However, it is a pity that the surname Tymons is not one of the many ancient god surnames, otherwise perhaps the Tymons family would have become one of the participants in the Holy Covenant and rampant in the political arena of the empire as a golden noble.
At this time, more than a dozen fast horses rushed towards the city, and the soldiers on the city immediately became alert, their long arrows on compound bows, ready to shoot at any time. Generally speaking, it is not allowed to run fast near the city, and the reason is simple, this is to prevent the enemy from seizing the city gates. At the moment when the knights were about to arrive at the city's warning range, three feathered arrows landed in front of the knights with a buzzing vibration.
The war horse was not frightened at all, and even the speed did not weaken in the slightest, and directly took off into the air, passing the three feathered arrows and continuing to gallop towards the city.
The guard bell at the city gate rang, and the soldiers carried the horses out of the gates, and the spearmen stood behind the horses with four-meter-long spears with barbed thorns. A pair of archers also hid behind the battlements of the wall, ready to bend their bows and shoot arrows at any moment.
At this moment, the knight who was running at the front took out a dragon slayer's banner from his bosom and shouted, "Marquis Isaac has returned to the city!"
The captain of the squad on duty on the city wall squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the group of knights, and found that although these knights were galloping very fast, they faintly surrounded a person in the middle, and the appearance of that person was somewhat familiar, indeed very similar to the Marquis of Isaac. He raised his hand, shouted a warning, and turned and ran towards the city.
As he approached the rejection, the knights stopped.
He fixed his eyes and saw that it was indeed the Marquis of Isaac!
"Quick, move away from the horse!", the squad leader instructed, quickly ran to the side of the knights, ignored the vigilant eyes of those knights, and knelt on the ground with a puff, "Lord of the family, please forgive my offense, I didn't know that you were back." ”
Isaac's face was haggard and pale, and when the imperial capital began to search the whole city, he had already received the news through the eyeliner inside the palace, and immediately left the imperial capital through a secret passage. He also knew very well that since Empress Pars was going to tear her face, he should not leave any illusions and run all the way back to his territory. The wind and rain along the way made him miserable.
Fortunately, he had returned home, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and he frowned, and barely got off the horse, both legs crossed. When had he ever suffered like this, the roots of his thighs were worn out, and dark red blood stains were faintly revealed. He took a deep breath and glanced at the squad leader on the ground, "It's okay, you did a good job, the brave warriors on duty should not be punished, but should be rewarded." ”
"Come, help me into the city. ”
The team leader hesitated, "I can carry you on my back!"
Isaac shook his head, "No need!", he was not only a marquis, not only the patriarch of the Timmons family, but also the master of the city. The master must not show the slightest weakness at any time, which only makes those who want to see his jokes find enough reason for them to laugh. Even if these two legs are broken, as long as he can still walk, he will have to move to the lord's mansion in person.
This was related to the ensuing war, and it was also a great boost to morale.
Soon the news of Isaac's return to the city alarmed the entire city, and countless nobles, merchants, and well-known neighborhood councilors gathered in Isaac's estate. After resting, Isaac immediately met the ruling and privileged classes in these cities in the auditorium.
In the face of these cunning and cunning guys, Isaac did not show the slightest strange look on his face, he was half-lying and half-sitting in the wide upholstered bench on the steps, holding the back of the chair with one hand, supporting his chin with the other, and his slightly narrowed eyes swept over the faces of everyone in the auditorium.
"I think the reason why I'm coming back this time, I think you should know it too. Under the promotion of the Imperial Research Institute, the magic sound box is rapidly forming a fast communication network, as long as it costs a small amount of money, you can know the changes and news in another city hundreds of thousands of miles away in a very short time. This was a divine artifact for the aristocracy, especially the merchants.
Without leaving home, you can hear the prices and trends of goods in the world, and almost all businessmen with a little ambition have bought the magic sound box.
When something happened in the imperial capital, some people in the city knew what was going on for the first time. Not to mention whether there are any careful thoughts of their own, in short, they know about it.
Looking at the impassive expressions of these people, Isaac sneered twice, in fact, he also knew that his enemies were not only the Empress of Pars, but also some people in the city. A family, a hereditary marquisate, is enough to make some people take risks. In the past, when he was in the imperial capital, these people might have had to accept their fate, but now that he has returned to the territory, those people have begun to float in their minds.
There are not one or two nobles who died violently for various reasons in history, and if Isaac dies violently, who will take his place?
Of course, this kind of mind still needs to be latent for a period of time, at least, it is best to find a force point to convince everyone.
"That's right, His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire is planning to do something against the Tymons family, and I will not hide this news and do not need to hide it. Her purpose wasn't because I did anything, but because she wanted to. I know that some people may disagree with me in private, but it doesn't matter, you stand up, whatever you want to know, I will explain it clearly. Isaac's buttocks were scorching with pain, and whether he was sitting or half-lying, the pain couldn't be reduced much, making him a little irritable.
A man in his fifties, with gray hair and dressed in traditional aristocratic attire, stepped forward and stepped forward, he hesitated a little, and asked in a consultative tone: "Your Excellency the Marquis, if you write to His Majesty the Emperor to show obedience, will there be any other changes in the situation?"
Not everyone wants war, and yes, war does bring a lot of dividends and opportunities, but it also loses more time and benefits. Most intuitively, once war breaks out, cities and strongholds belonging to the Imperial faction will refuse to make any trade with the rebels. A large number of goods will be backlogged in the city and cannot be sold, if it is some luxury goods, or armor, weapons and the like, it is better.
If the backlog is something that is perishable, rotten, or has a special time limit, then it will be lost.
Isaac's gaze stayed on the man's face for a moment before he shook his head, "Impossible, since Pars has done it, he will definitely not give up halfway." I know this woman, she has even more insane ambitions and desires than Orlando VI, and she will gamble with all her might, even if there is only a fifty percent chance. Instead of lowering his head and admitting his mistake to her shamelessly, it is better to give it a go. ”
"If her Orlando family can overthrow the Holy Empire, I don't believe it, and my Tymons family can't shake the rule of the Orlando Empire!" he laughed, "Besides, it's not just the Tymons family who is being targeted, the entire blood alliance will unite against the Orlando family." ”
"Please forgive me for being presumptuous, maybe ......", Isaac straightened his waist, his whole body was filled with a surging momentum, everywhere he looked, there were bowed heads, no one dared to look directly at him, "Maybe the next era will be created by my Tymons family!", he paused, and then laughed loudly, "And you will all be witnesses of history!"
His meaning is very obvious, he is determined to have a fight with the empire. Won, maybe he will be the founding emperor, like Orlando I, to build an immortal monument and create a great and powerful empire. If you lose, it is nothing more than death, and you don't even need to die, this continent is so big under the starry sky, where can't you hide people? If you go to Byron or even the Federation farther away, maybe you can mix better.
"From now on, whoever dares to make peace with me again should find a place to cut himself off, so as not to implicate his family!", he glanced at the nobleman who asked, who was sweating profusely and shivering with his head bowed.
The war came so suddenly.
In fact, it cannot be said that it takes a lot of time to prepare before the real war comes. The requisition of troops, the rationing of materials, and the planning of strategies...... There are so many things that take time to consider. Although everyone knows that war has broken out, there are at least ten days and half a month before the hand-to-hand encounter.
