Chapter XXII: Coup d'état

Then the regent clenched the handrail, and the old wrinkles on his face tightened: "I guess when he returns here, he will definitely order the army to retreat under the pretext that our forces are exposed, and it is clear that we have violated the peace treaty." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info I will expose what he has done to help the enemy in secret, then I hope that you can stand up and show momentum, use your voice when you need to, smash the cup when you smash the cup, and draw your sword when necessary. ”

The generals were worried: "Are you asking us to use the army to mutiny to force Prince Kaim to step down?"

The regent sneered: "That's right, I have long hoped that our young master would step down. It's just unfortunate that although my nephew is unwilling to start a war in his heart, when facing the people, he pretends to shout for three days and two times to completely conquer the Jinxi Forest, and those ignorant people still think that this young master is the most determined person of the main battle faction. And it wasn't until today that I finally waited for the best chance to pull him off the throne. ”

The Lord Regent watched his withered hands, his fingers like withered branches slowly clenching, as if he were clutching his nephew's heart, and his eyes gleamed with excitement.

And today, I will certainly use tactful words to force him to speak the words of the Lord. The communication crystal, hidden in the throne, will broadcast his sincere words against the war throughout the country, and when the people realize his true colors, the generals who rush to force him to abdicate are not only traitors to the country, but heroes who overthrow the liars!"

The generals' hearts throbbed, and then their faces flushed with abnormal excitement, and said, "Lord Regent, do as you say. ”

"As long as Kaim abdicates, the final command of the national army will be completely in my hands. Just wait for the arrival of the main siege force, and after three days you can storm the fortress. Then I will finally be able to completely wipe the country across this fortress, the country that has brought me so much sorrow and hatred, off the map!"

The regent stood up, and the corners of his mouth showed a terrifying angle: "And you, will get unimaginable wealth and power!"

"Oh!" the generals stood up in ecstasy, hoping to mutiniate at once.

Seeing the neighing of the war horse outside the account, Prince Kayl jumped off the war horse with a gloomy face, held the hilt of Tsukimi's sword, and strode towards the regent.

The regent guessed that the prince's ugly expression was due to his own order not to withdraw his troops.

Dear nephew, as soon as you ask "why haven't you withdrawn yet", you will say goodbye to your throne completely.

Sure enough, Khail was furious, stretched out his index finger and pointed at the regent, and asked, "Why did you let so many troops ambush in the misty woods?

The regent was extremely proud, and the horn of victory had already sounded in his heart, but his face was forcibly silent, and he said in fear: "My subordinates really don't know that Prince Kayl will burn down the entire forest in the battle to capture the Sun Elf Princess. ”

Prince Kayl looked at the generals' expressions attentively, and when he saw that everyone seemed to be eagerly waiting for something, he sneered and replied, "As long as there is a forest, hunters can escape into the shadows of the trees, this is common knowledge that everyone knows. If I hunt down Princess Flora and don't burn all the trees, can I rely on my horse to track her up and down from the trees?"

Without waiting for the regent to answer, Prince Kayir's eyes suddenly lit up, and he roared angrily: "The Lone King set fire to the fire, but unexpectedly, he burned out the legions and heavy weapons hidden in the forest! Uncle Wang, please make it clear that you didn't report the deployment of the army in the misty woodland to Lone before? Could it be that you let these troops stand by here, and they are all exposed today, is it deliberately trying to let the Lone King be coerced by the peace treaty?"

The regent was shocked, he never expected Prince Kaim to make a move, and before he could accuse him of obstructing the march, he let the prince throw the big hat on his head.

I can carry this pot, the regent thought, as long as you are the one who opened your mouth and ordered the withdrawal of the troops.

So the regent humbly bent down and replied: "It is true that the subordinates have made a mistake, but it must be a malicious rumor to say that the subordinates want to use this way to ventilate the sun elves, and please make a clear decision." ”

Kayl nodded: "That's right, although you are a little stupid, but you are not clever enough to think about big things that are bad for Gu. Those who said that Uncle Wang was trying to make our army retreat, Lone had already scolded them severely. Uncle Wang did not give the order for the army to retreat, and this alone was enough to offset Uncle Wang's mistake of unfavorable deployment. ”

What? The regent thought nervously, that Kayl should reward me for ordering the army not to retreat?

The generals were also greatly astonished, and they all thought that Prince Kayl, who had said that he was good, would have asked why they had not yet retreated, and that if he had not strongly demanded that the whole army retreat, what excuse could we have to launch a mutiny?

Before the regent could respond, Kayl suddenly ordered: "Generals, please pass on the order of the Lone King to immediately launch an attack on the Sun Elf Border Fortress." ”

"Attack?" The generals almost sat down on the ground, which was not only different from the plan, but could be said to be completely opposite! How did it happen? Prince Kayir, who was in fact the main battle on the surface, suddenly gave the order to attack at such a time?

Kayir's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said sternly: "What's the matter? Aren't the generals leading their troops here just to attack the Jinxi Forest? Why are they all so surprised when they hear Lone's general's order?"

The generals were sweating profusely and looked at the regent uneasily, and the regent's pale hands trembled slightly, and the current situation was obviously far beyond his expectations.

"Young master, do you want to attack...... I'm afraid not yet. ”

Kayl was furious, and slammed his glass and said: "Gu understands, it seems that the secret report of those generals is not wrong, Uncle Wang, you are indeed the biggest obstacle on the way to King Gu's march! If not, why are you so pushing back now that Gu is ordering you to march?"

Kair's golden pupils shot a cold fierce light: "Could it be that you have to say something to Lone, because you have violated the peace treaty, so you must withdraw your troops right now?" If a mere peace treaty can stop the iron hooves of the Lone King, the Lone King's hard training and the move to strengthen the army is not in vain?"

The generals' eyes widened as they looked at the Regent, and then peeked uneasily at the communication crystal hidden near the main seat, thinking that the Regent had made a terrible mess now, and instead of trapping Khail, he had made himself a guy who "used the peace treaty as an excuse to hinder the advance".

The regent buried his head lower, sweat soaking his clothes: "Because ...... Well, the main force of the siege is not yet ready, and when they arrive here in three days, they can attack immediately. ”

Kayl was even more furious: "Well, the Lone King asked you, why did you let so many troops arrive here first, why didn't you let the legion and the main army hidden in the woods today go in at the same time? What are your intentions?"

The regent shouted loudly in his heart, since he planned to raid the Jinxi Forest Fortress, of course, the army stationed here was secretly coming over little by little in advance, if the large army and the main force acted at the same time, the sun elves didn't even need secret agents, just look at the smoke and dust raised in the sky to know the movement of our army.

What's more, the purpose of the army that arrived in advance was not to attack the city, but to use tricks to send the Moon Elf civilians to the front line to cause tragedy, so as to gain the legitimacy of the war, and then the main siege army arrived just in time to break through the fortress.

Now, however, the Regent is deeply aware that the plan has gone in a direction that cannot be reversed.

The Regent's eyes protruded, and reddish blood spread outward around the pupil. Can this damn boy not only stop me from starting a war in the name of "revenge", but also crush my plan to bombard him from power?

The domineering spirit of the wolf king suddenly rose on Kayir's body: "Generals, are you also the same as Uncle Wang's thoughts, are you unwilling to send troops to fight?"

The generals trembled: "Well, it's not that the subordinates are unwilling to attack, but the main force of the siege has not yet arrived, and it is only afraid that it will not be able to win if you rush into the army now." ”

"Is it impossible to win, or is it unwilling to win?" said Kayl, grabbing the nearest general's collar and gritting his teeth, "Each of us has listened to the teachings of the black-clothed witch, haven't we? As long as we muster up the courage and bravely shed our blood for the great cause of the country, we will surely summon a miracle! Of course, I know that with a small number of artillery units, combined with an infantry phalanx and a small number of scout cavalry, it is impossible to defeat the fortress guarded by the Sun Elves by the Eagle of Mysteries and the Royal Praetorian Legion. But don't we have miracle workers!"

Prince Kayl finally lifted his battle robe and stepped on his horse again: "Immediately, attack with the Lone King! Anyone who is cowardly and afraid of war will be punished for delaying the military plane!"

The generals did not dare to disobey, so they could only pick up their weapons and rush out together, and the outside of the command headquarters suddenly had chaotic footsteps, war horses roared, and entered a state of emergency preparation.

And the regent stood in the shadow of the tent, sweat sticking his gray hair to his forehead, making him look suddenly older.

"That's why...... Does the Emperor want Kayl to become the rightful heir to the throne of the Forest of the Moon? Although Kayl is young, is it true that his talents are far superior to those of the old man?"

The Lord Regent looked back at the back of Khail once again leading his army away, and hatefully crushed the communication crystal on the side of the main seat.

Sorry, exotic princess. Sorry, innocent Sun Elf defenders.

Lone did make a promise to protect the peace between the two countries at all costs, and never allow anyone to drag the elves into the flames of war.

And today, King Gu had to personally lead the army and had to personally give the order to attack.
