Chapter 32: Behind Us Is Erathia!(8)

"What's the matter with you people? How dare you leave your command post at this time! What will you do if the enemy takes advantage of the situation to attack?" Kendall's loud voice began to shout.

"Our Second Corps is not under your control!" someone in the crowd replied.

"Who's who's going to hit me over there?" Kendall snapped.

"It's me, what's wrong?" a strong man pushed away the crowd and stepped forward. It was Sosa, one of the commanders of Catherine's 2nd Corps.

"It's you!You thief who broke your promise! I haven't prosecuted you for treason, and now you're here yourself!"

"I swear allegiance to Erathia, but that doesn't mean I have to fight for the tiger and oppress the people!

The crowd immediately became chaotic. Some people were fighting, some were instigating, some were watching the excitement, until Seya raised his eyebrows angrily and shouted: "Are you still my knights? Where is your honor and dignity? What I see now is not a group of noble knights, but a group of foolish men who are drunk in the bazaar and picking quarrels and provoking trouble!"

Seeing that Her Majesty began to soar, the generals quieted down.

Kendall sneered and walked up to Catherine and said, "As the commander of the Second Corps, is this how you manage your subordinates?"

"Every one of them always has his duty in mind!" Catherine replied, puffing the wisp of grace that hung down her forehead, "and it is precisely because of this that they come to the Castle of the Iron Fist with great anxiety! Unlike some people, who will only stand there indifferently, and even make unreasonable comments and accusations!"

"I hope their swords will be as sharp as your words! The spring offensive is about to begin, and as the commander-in-chief of the campaign, if anyone leaves his post without permission, no matter which regiment he belongs to, I will enforce military law without mercy!"

"Rest assured, my men will carry out any correct order to the letter!

"Alright, I'll keep an eye on them!" Kendall said relentlessly, "As for you, your mission is to defend the border of Dia, and not let Sandru step into Erathia, that is the key to the victory of the whole battle!"

"I always keep in mind the sacred mission of the Elasia family! If Sandru's army of the undead stepped into Erathia, it would have stepped on my corpse as well!"

"Sister......" Saya nervously tugged at Catherine's sleeve.

"I'll give you a short time to catch up, and then you must leave Tekken Castle and go where you're supposed to be!" Kendall angrily walked out of the crowd.

Of course he had reason to be angry! Who would dare to blow his beard and glare at him when he was king? That would be pure death!

What made him even more angry was his daughter Saiya! This little girl seemed to have been raised for nothing, and she actually watched her father eat deflated, and did not help him at all! Alas, alas, what a natural elbow turned out!

At this moment he was like an angry bull, and the people who accidentally blocked his way were immediately staggered by him.

Cuthbert came to Catherine: "Your Highness Princess, the Hart Legion has sent ravens back, and they have already begun to set off for the north!"

"They only have one legion!" said Sea worriedly, "can they withstand so many armies of the undead?"

"Uncle Leo still has a few legions!, and he has been through a lot of battles, and I hope that he can find a way to hold out longer, which will create a valuable opportunity for us to counterattack......" Catherine turned back to her generals and said, "Since everyone is here, if you have time, go home and have a look, after all, the big war is about to begin!"

Catherine's words speak for themselves, that is, go and say goodbye to your loved ones, because no one can guarantee that they will come back alive!

Seya took Catherine's hand and walked towards the magic academy in the city: "Sister, let me introduce someone to you...... He is the Nobel High Priest of the Academy of Magic...... Before leaving the castle, Gu Zi had been nervously tinkering with him for a long time, and he knew something very terrible!"

"I know!" he ...... He always has a lot of weird ideas, and they seem to be very useful!"

"You got it?" said Sea looked at his cousin strangely.

"Yes...... There is my network all over Erathia, including, of course, the Castle of the Iron Fist...... Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles!" Catherine looked at Seya embarrassedly and said, "But please rest assured, I am not collecting intelligence against you, and I will never be your enemy!"

"I wish the king of Erathia wasn't me, but you!" Sea sincerely took Catherine's hand, "Seriously, I'm really not fit to be king...... My wish is just to be a simple and ordinary little woman!"

"You are wrong, only a benevolent king will bring stability and well-being to the people! you will do well, I am sure!"

"Now that you know it, how are you going to use this horrible thing?"

"Let's speed up the process first, the more we produce, the better! That will be our secret weapon to turn defeat into victory!"

"Okay!" Seya turned around and said, "Lord Xiang, please do your best to handle this matter! The necessary funds will be allocated directly by you from the treasury, and there is no need to ask for instructions, and this matter cannot be delayed for a moment!"

Cuthbert bowed, then hurried away.

"Sister, I also want to ask you to tell Captain Hart that you must find a way...... Try to bring him back alive!"

"Seya, on this point, we are all on the same page!" Catherine sighed deeply, "Pray for him, I hope he will continue to be favored by the gods!"

In the snowy field, an army is trudging through the snow.

"Hurry, hurry, march like this, when will we reach the city of Shiyan?" a general brandished his whip and urged loudly in front of and behind the procession.

"General Hart, we've got too much baggage, can we drop some?" said one of the heroes.

"You can't throw it away! these things will be needed in the future!" the two men and two women rode to Hart's side.

The two men are Gabriel and Lucifer, who are young and strong, and the two women are the young and beautiful Renesa and Jasmine.

Everyone's hearts have flown to the distant city of Shiyan, but ......

"Look at that!" began to shout from the crowd.

Following the direction that everyone was pointing, in the gray sky, a huge black dragon flapped its wings and flew towards the team.

"That must be Her Royal Highness!" everyone began to cheer with raised arms.

The black dragon swirled down, bringing up a large cloud of snowflakes. A golden beauty in full armor and heroic posture jumped off the dragon's spine before the black dragon could land.

"Your Highness the Princess!"

"Your Highness the Princess!"

The crowd immediately became lively.

Catherine kept waving at the people. Hart and a few young men immediately took the lead and surrounded him.

"Why are you all unshaven?" Catherine couldn't help laughing, "I thought you were all a few little old men!" Her eyes immediately looked at Ressa and Jasmine behind her, and said with a smile: "As for you, I am surprised and delighted! You have become a very mature woman, and that will fascinate many men!"

Renesa and Jasmine smiled sheepishly. Jasmine hesitated and said, "Your Royal Highness, you ...... Are you alright? Please take me with you, I'm ...... I don't want to go north anymore!"

Gabriel and Lucie are up. Lucifer, in particular, was disappointed.

"Jasmine, what's wrong with you? We've agreed that we'll be together wherever we go in the future......" Resa immediately expressed her displeasure.

"I ...... I just don't want to see the undead......" Jasmine lowered her head: "Other than that, I can go anywhere dangerous!"

"That's a strange idea!" Catherine smiled at the bewildered little girl, "In my opinion, the undead and demons are just as hateful!

"What then?" Jasmine was so anxious that she almost cried.

"Jasmine, please don't worry, I will protect you well, even if it is at the cost of my own life!" Lucifer took her hand and held it tightly in his palm.

"Uh......" Jasmine didn't know what to say, so she had to look at her toes.

"Whatever you want, if you insist on following me, then I will take you to Dia......" Catherine comforted.

"Your Royal Highness, she has decided to go with us to the City of Stone Barriers!" Lucifer said hurriedly.

"yes, how do you know?" asked Catherine curiously.

"At least...... At least she didn't object!" Lucifer blushed.

Jasmine still lowered her head and played with the snow on the ground with her small feet.

"Your Royal Highness, do you have any instructions?" Hart didn't bother to care about the young man's affection.

"First, speed up the march, and there can be no delay on the way!"

"But we still have a lot of baggage...... Just now we discussed how to deal with baggage. ”

"The Treasury Bank holds off and burns all the bonds that you carry with you! As for the gold coins...... You can buy horses and food along the way, and make sure that all the warriors are on their horses, even if they are not cavalry, so that you can reach your destination in time. As for the rest...... Arrange for some non-combatants to be sent back to Tekken Castle or Standwick!"

"Yes! I'll do it!" said Hart, bowing.

"Wait! and...... Try to make sure you bring the millet back safely!"

"Yes!"

"What if...... Alas, then you must make sure to live well!"

The boys and girls had red circles in their eyes. Hart patted his chest and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't worry, I won't let you down!"

"I believe in you, and in you!" Catherine put her right hand on her left chest, stood upright, and said solemnly, "Courage and honor!"

"Courage and honor!"

Catherine didn't say much. She turned her head and walked towards the black dragon that was roaring quietly.

Hart felt that the corners of her eyes were shining. Is that her tears shining?

"Don't worry, I'll bring him back, I promise!" Hart shouted at Catherine's back.

Catherine's footsteps paused slightly, and suddenly she walked faster!
