Chapter 447: Spring Festival (2)
No one knew about Suarez's being taken away by the garrison. Pen~Fun~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the people just saw the security army leave from the east and west gates in the morning, and then the city gate was closed, and no one was released or entered.
Except for the city defense army at the north gate, the city defense of the other gates has been taken over by the garrison. The reason for these garrisons to close the city gate was that the city protection array was about to open, and in order to protect the people from being affected by the ancient elven spells, they would set up a forbidden area within 100 meters of the city gate.
Will it be affected by the elven law? So when the city protection array is opened, what will happen to those soldiers on the city wall? If the physical fitness is too good, will it not be affected?
The streets were full of garrisons, who were clearly not good at maintaining order...... It can even be said that they have no intention of maintaining order at all: they just stand with such a cold face, and all the festive atmosphere around them does not care about them. This expression seems to be that of a soldier who wants to go to war. Interested people have actually discovered that these garrisons who came to the imperial capital from the Acropolis are really strong, just like the special forces wearing red armor in the military army, and there are definitely large muscle lines in the armor.
These situations are indeed a little too bizarre, but for ordinary people, it is not surprising that these things happen on such a festive holiday. Many people also think that Crotty's soldiers are so hard that they can't even participate in the carnival, and as for the reason why the garrison is like special forces: maybe it's because of such a grand celebration, the most elite troops must be drawn from all over the country to maintain law and order, so as not to cause any accidents?
"Crotty, Eternal Chang'an!"
No one thought of the word "coup d'état" at all, after all, the Emperor lived well, and Generalissimo Saint-Yas and Count Ryan Reinhardt were the two pillars of Crotty, how could Crotty have an accident?
............
Suge also knew nothing, and he rode back to Reinhardt's mansion from the back hill before dawn. He did notice a large number of troops appearing in the streets and alleys, but he couldn't tell the difference between the uniforms of the garrison army and the security army, can you believe it?!
As soon as he entered the door, he noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange. Lallana stood in the courtyard in full armor with the guards of the family mansion, hundreds of guards had all mounted their horses, and stayed quietly, no one said a word, even Lallana just nodded at the fat man.
Suge's father, Ryan, came out in full armor and in a black uniform, and several of his retinue dragged a large black lionheart shield behind him.
When Lallana saw Ryan come out, he immediately led a sturdy war horse over. Ryan put on a pair of white equestrian gloves, stepped on the horse, and glanced at his son lightly: "We will go to the central square of the imperial city now, you, as the earl, as the eldest son of the Reinhardt family, are eligible to participate in the grand ceremony in the central square, the grand ceremony will start at noon, and those of us as courtiers must arrive as soon as possible." ”
With that, Ryan took the lead and walked towards the mansion.
Suge was puzzled as to why Ryan was carrying a lionheart shield and a heavily armed elite guard.
These guards Suge hadn't seen them two or four years ago. It's all some fresh faces, and these guards are probably from one of the most elite regiments in the steppe iron cavalry, right?
"Father, what about my brother?"
With the sound of horses' hooves trampling, the Reinhardt family quickly rushed to the imperial city. Su Ge followed closely behind his father and couldn't help but ask, puzzled.
"Suke is out of the city with our family's iron horse. ”
Not surprisingly!
The Reinhardt Iron Horsemen have indeed made their way south to St. Lantis, and Sibi must have fought the Templars, right?
Looking at the full armament of the guards around him, Su Ge felt that this spring festival might be the day of the coup d'état!
Everything came too fast, the emperor is still alive and well, does Lei want to do it in advance?
While Suge's mind was confused, Ryan and him, surrounded by hundreds of guards, entered the central square in front of the outer city of the Imperial City. The imperial city is also divided into inner and outer cities, just like Su Ge goes to the back mountain, he takes a detour in the outer city, and he is not qualified to enter the inner city. He had been to the inner city twice so far, once when he was summoned by the Emperor, and once when he was invited by Natsuki to be a guest.
The central square is a huge square in front of the south gate of the inner city of the imperial city, which can accommodate tens of thousands of soldiers for review. The bluestone slabs are paved very neatly, and five or six carriages will not jolt side by side!
Whenever there is a celebration of the Krotty royal family, a celebration is held here. On the walls of the inner city of the imperial city, the emperor will come to the high platform to preside over the ceremony. Now the high platforms on both sides are officially the positions of the thirteen giants of St. Lantis and some high-ranking officials and high-ranking members of the Holy See. During a certain grand ceremony, the people who can enter the central square of the outer city of the imperial city have only two identities: wealthy families and their families, the most elite Imperial City Guards of Crotty, and the gendarme.
When Su Ge came to the square, he found that the high platforms on both sides were already full of people from thirteen wealthy families. Along the way, Su Ge was observing what kind of wealthy families were on both sides, what was the relationship between each wealthy family, and where the representatives of the Holy See were.
He looked extremely calm, even when he saw that there was not a single Praetorian Guard in the square outside the city, and the Praetorian Guards had been replaced by a group of garrisons wearing silver-white armor, he didn't say a word, obviously, just as he thought before: Today's spring festival is probably not just a grand ceremony!
Looking back at the gate of the outer city of the imperial city, a large number of people had already gathered outside the city gate. Compared with the atmosphere outside, the atmosphere of the central square in the imperial city is very dignified.
After dismounting, Suge followed Ryan to the high platform on the right, and the nobles on the high platform did not have a relaxed face. Among them, Su Ge knows a lot of wealthy families, such as the Potter family and the Hong family among the two major magic families, as well as Duke Harick and Kane, who was slapped by himself. And then there's Saint Laurent from the Holy See.
Suge continued to walk with Ryan expressionlessly, he never expected that Saint Yas was actually on the high platform on the right.
Ryan naturally stood beside Saint Yas, his face solemn.
The people outside the central square may not know what will happen today, but these people from great aristocratic families may have seen something unusual from the garrisons all over the city. Besides, isn't it thought-provoking that there are no Praetorian Guards and gendarmes in the central square of the outer city?
The nobles who can stand on both sides of the high platform are the most powerful families of Crotty.
Looking to the opposite side, Suge saw the logo of the Casel Magic Guild family, as well as the Yue Rak family, plus several families at the bottom of the thirteen wealthy families. There is a huge contrast between the left and right sides!
If there is a coup d'état today, and the people on the left side of the high platform are Xia Mu's people, and the people on the right side of the high platform are Lei's people, then Su Ge can only kill himself by wiping his neck with a smile: I can only hope that everything that is happening in front of me now is an illusion!
