Section 24 The Great Military Parade Twelve Years Ago
Spring in Inphilia is divided into the three months of Mutsuki, Ruzuki, and Yayoi, which correspond to early spring, regular spring, and late spring, respectively. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 The twelve months of the year are Muzuki, Ruyue, Yayoi, Utsuki, Satsuki, Mizunotsu, Bunyue, Hazuki, Changyue, Kaminotsuki, Frost Moon, and Shigo. In the beginning, the Inphilia people did not have the concept of months, and it was not until the Moon Emperor divided the year into twelve months according to the law of the moon and named them that humans were able to distinguish time more precisely.
Every year, when the teacher is about to leave, the grassland climate of the mainland enters a period of time called the "frost period". This period of time often begins at the end of the division and ends in the middle of the month. After the snow on the grassland melts, the water-based mana will gather on top of the various grass-covered plants, turning into layers of mist like a thin veil, which will not disperse for a long time. When the sun rises, the whole grassland glitters like thousands of diamonds, reflecting the brilliance of the stars.
This year's Kargis Plains, the frost has not receded, and it is still as bright as a sea of diamonds. A troop of men and horses stepped on the land untouched in a long time, the sound of metal grinding against armor and the neighing of war horses shattered the silence of the savannah. This team is composed of about 100 people, half of whom are master of ceremonies and half of whom are soldiers. The master of ceremonies wore ceremonial robes for visiting other countries, while the soldiers wore armor with a rose pattern engraved on their chests, the only difference being the feathers on their helmets, which came in red, yellow, and blue. The team is from the Duchy of Los and is targeting Galbadia.
Soon after, Anglas received a report from the Imperial Cabinet that an envoy from the Duchy of Los had come to ask for an audience. As a result, Anglas interrupted the Imperial Council that was being held and invited the envoy into the Imperial Hall to discuss.
Forty or fifty celebrants dressed in neat gowns entered the palace, and after a diplomatic salute, the ambassador who led the team stood up and made a bold and novel proposal to the current king of Galbadia.
The grand event of the joint military exercise between the Principality of Los and the Kingdom of Garbadia, also known as the "Great Military Parade", was opened. According to Loes, the main purpose of this event was to demonstrate the military might of the two countries and stabilize diplomatic relations, but in hindsight, this was just a precaution prepared by the three gentlemen for the subsequent civil war. During the military exercises, the two countries agreed to hold a peace signing ceremony on the Qagis Plain and sign a non-aggression pact for a period of 10 years.
After that meeting, most of the soldiers and master of ceremonies remained in Garbadia to take charge of liaison and handover. Thinking about it, this move was a slight suspicion of spying, but the Duchy of Los also agreed that Galbadia would send people to stay in Los Angeles, so Angras did not stop it. Since that day, the envoys of the two countries have had frequent exchanges and frictions, and when conducting military exercises, they have also had to guard against other countries stealing their own secrets.
As the crown prince, Luthieva was thirteen years old at the time, and he also took this opportunity to make several missions to the Duchy of Los. It was the first time he had left Yebasta and gone out into the world, not to mention how excited he was. He really wanted Yejia to accompany him to participate in this grand event, but Yejia had been living alone in the deep palace since his mother's death, and he didn't see anyone.
Yejia's mother, Dai Lin, passed away shortly after the poisoned alcohol incident, and the imperial doctor managed to expel most of the poison through gastric lavage, but there was still a little poison in her body that could not be removed, so Dai Lin only lived for half a year after the incident. Ever since his mother's death, Yaga has become even more self-contained, and no one knows what he is doing in the palace, and no one cares about him. Anglas was under house arrest for his mother, and after Dai Lin's death, Anglas intended to take Yega back to the palace, but Yega refused everything with hateful eyes, preferring to stay alone in the new palace and guard his mother's soul.
In the year of the parade, the court magician Karan had been promoted to the rank of military secretary. In the four years since he entered the palace, Anglas has taken over countless small states scattered around the territory of Galbadia with his military prowess, some of which were once impregnable fortresses, but Karan's magic terrified his enemies, and Karan's strategy kept Anglas bloodless. After all, fulfilling the promise he had made before the Emperor of Anglas, Galbadia's territory had really expanded by more than a quarter.
In this military exercise, Karan also played a great role, he gave a lot of constructive suggestions, so that everyone took a lot of detours.
Before the exercise began, Anglas dispatched 50,000 well-trained troops to the border, and Luthieva rode alone on a white horse and followed General Mekrog. The tide of silver poured out of the city gate along the crowded streets of Chengxia Street, and traveled mightily to the southwest. In fact, when the army usually goes out, there is a gate next to the royal city, and there is no need to walk through the crowded market streets. However, the purpose of this expedition was not to fight, but to show military might to other countries. Then the army should march to the cheers of the people.
Along the way, Luthiefa had a lot on her mind. During his mission to Loes, he saw the scenery of the Duchy of Los, communicated with the local free merchants, and gained a better understanding of cross-border trade. He secretly contacted a reliable businessman, gave him a sum of money, and made some arrangements. Unbeknownst to anyone, Luthieva was ready to escape.
Before leaving, Luthièra took the hand of her sister, who was nine years older than herself, and sat on the balcony. He whispered to his sister that he was leaving, going far, far away, but at that time Alicia did not understand that her brother would be separated from her for twelve years, she just felt warm and happy to be held by her brother's hand.
By the time the exercise was underway, the wheel of the seasons had turned to the end of summer, the water was moonless, the sky was clear, and the leaders of the two countries were in the middle of the Kargis Plain with their most elite knights, reminiscent of the historic alliance between Lecrest and the Moon Emperor during the Heroic War years, in the same place. Time and space passed, and heroism and remembrance of ancestors flowed into the chests of all people.
Luthieva had no intention of looking at the scenery at this time, he was only thinking about his plans for the evening. Anglas could see that he was preoccupied, but thought that he was just nervous because it was the first time he had faced such a grand scene. But I didn't know that my child was about to pass away, and I would never see each other again in this life.
So, before the military exercise began, on the first night of the meeting between the two armies, the news of the disappearance of the crown prince came from the army of Galbadia.
