"Oh my God, Mother, how could Kendall make such a ridiculous request?" Catherine could hardly believe her ears: "I have been married to Guzi in the Lost Land for a long time, how can he forcibly break us up?"

Laurel sighed and said, "Your uncle is such a person, he only thinks about his personal interests and feelings in everything he does, and does not care about other people's ...... at all."

In Laurel's mind, she reminisced about her teenage days with the two brothers, Geffenhart and Kendall. To be honest, when he was a teenager, Kendall was powerful, lively and active, and straightforward by nature. He can speak witticisms, be courteous to girls, and is the favorite idol of many Huaichun girls, while Geffenheart is young and old, honest, like a gourd that saws off his mouth, and can't beat a stuffy fart with three rods. Laurel treats Geffenhardt like a big brother in her heart, and Geffenheart does take care of her like a big brother. From the bottom of her heart, Laurel likes Kendall more, and it feels easy to be with him, you can go crazy and wild together, while in front of Geffenhardt, you can only behave in a proper manner, and behave like a lady.

However, Laurel eventually succumbed to her parents' advice and married Geffenhardt. They were probably thinking about the rise and fall of the family more than their personal happiness, which made the young Laurel very sad, and the pillow was often soaked in the morning. After the marriage, Geffenhardt successfully became the crown prince of the kingdom of Erathia, and Kendall led the troops as the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses.

But slowly, she was relieved that she could marry Geffenhardt. Geffenhardt is calm, loves and cares for herself, which makes her feel very happy. Kendall's first generalissimo immediately showed great military talent, but he was a little reckless and impulsive, and he made many mistakes.

When she became a mother, she understood the intentions of her parents at that time, and also understood the reason why the old king would pass the throne to the old Geffenhardt, instead of the impulsive Kendall. She also began to learn to look at everything around her with a mature eye, and gradually became a good politician.

"Mother, why don't you speak?" Catherine looked at Laurel worriedly, "You don't think that I and Guzi are separated, this is the only way to solve the problem, right?"

Laurel kissed Catherine on the forehead and said lovingly, "In addition to being a politician, I am also a mother. What Kendall did was to fulfill his responsibilities as a father and find a strong person to guard his daughter. He can do that, so why should I sacrifice my own daughter's happiness for it? What could be more important as a woman than being with the person you love?"

"Thank you, mother!" Catherine snuggled happily into her arms, smelling the strong smell of her mother. She whispered, "We should be able to figure it out, we will!"

The stubborn King Kendall would never make any concessions, he was thinking about the happiness of his own daughter, which was exactly the same as Laurel's calf.

Eldred and Adela were still outside harassing the flanks and flanks of the Fiona army, but this did not stop the advance of the Fiona army. Every day, a large number of refugees flee to Standwick Castle with their children and the elderly, and the castle is already overcrowded.

"Grain...... Why are you not there for me every time I need you the most?" Catherine choked up as she looked at the endless stream of refugees outside the city.

She was surprised by the news that the scout had returned. Fiona's army was already closing in on Standwick, and the vanguard had sacked a village and town more than thirty miles from the castle ahead.

"Damn the devil, how many of them are there?" asked Catherine, gritting her teeth.

"Your Royal Highness, the vanguard of the demon army is about 10,000 people. ”

"Isn't there any movement from Kendall?"

"Not yet. He simply shrunk the surrounding army and held a few forts leading to Tekken Castle. In this way, he would not have sent an army to stop Fiona's army. ”

"I see, you guys go down first!" Catherine nodded.

"It seems that your uncle Kendall wants you and Fiona to fight first, so that he can profit from it. Laurel said worriedly.

"But the people of Erathia are suffering! How can he, as the king of Erathia, turn a blind eye?"

"He's seen enough blood, he's used to it! I don't think what is happening now makes him feel guilty in the slightest. No matter how much blood was shed, he wouldn't change his mind because of it. ”

"But in this way, Fiona will calmly break us down!

"For him, now he has two enemies, you and Fiona. What could make him happy than to borrow the hand of one enemy to destroy another?"

"He'll pay a heavy price for it!" Catherine ordered, "Tell all the battalions of the herald to prepare to go at once! I must first teach Fiona a lesson, and let him know that the people of Erathia are inviolable!"

"You...... Alas, you have to be careful!" Laurel looked at her daughter worriedly.

"I will, Mother, just wait for my triumphant return!"

Catherine stepped onto the black dragon and flew high in the sky. An elite army of nearly 30,000 people winds its feet, and there is no end in sight.

There were several thick clouds of smoke rising from the ground level. Is that the village being burned down by Fiona's vanguard?

By the time Catherine arrived at the burned village, the demon army had dispersed, leaving only the ground covered in blood.

What about the villagers? Where have they gone?

In the crackling sound of the raging fire, she heard the cry of the child. She immediately followed the call, blood staining her boots red.

Under a big tree at the end of the village, she found a little girl with pigtails crying!

It was a tall old locust tree. Under the ravages of the autumn wind and frost, the leaves that had been hanging high on the branches returned to the earth and turned to dust, leaving only straight and strong branches.

When Catherine first saw the tree, it was as if she had been struck by lightning, and she was so shocked that she could barely stand still!

Oh my God, what are these enemies of extermination doing?!

The spear-like branches are poked with the corpses of many villagers everywhere, forming a terrifying flesh puzzle!

Catherine's whole body trembled, and she stepped forward step by step, leaning over and picking up the little girl.

Is this little girl the only one left in the whole village? God knows how she escaped this catastrophe?!

The little girl was still just crying, and Catherine's heart was broken little by little.

With so many corpses hanging from the trees, which one is the little girl's relative?

They were followed by a cavalry team led by Hart. When they saw this, they all jumped off their horses and stood silently under the tree.

"Hart, send an order to all armies to find this group of executioners for me at once! and then destroy this group of demons at all costs, and never let any of them go!"

Catherine's voice was completely changed! Her throat was hoarse with rage, and it almost burst into flames!

The battle ended before sunset. The 10,000 demon army was surrounded by Catherine's 30,000 army in the valley, huddled tightly together, and looked in horror at the warriors who were all over the mountain.

Dozens of charges organized by the demon army were blocked by the impregnable swordsman shield array. Countless bows, arrows, fireballs, and lightning bolts rained down in their camp, and more and more of their companions fell, until only a few hundred demon warriors were left huddled together and shivering.

Hart raised his hand, the longbowmen had already put their bows and arrows on the strings, and at the end of the day, the demon warriors would turn into a mass of hedgehogs.

Catherine ordered: "Take these people away, let our people vent their wrath! Hang the corpses of demons on every tree leading to Standwick, and let them know what terrible consequences an invasion of Erathia will be!"

When the army returned to Standwick, the welcoming people saw the demon captives, and countless stones immediately smashed their heads to the ground!

"Kill them, never let them live!"

"Let these damned demons pay for the lives of our loved ones!"

“......”

Catherine stood under the statue of the hero in Standwick Square and shouted, "Residents of Standwick!

Looking at Catherine, who was stained with blood, the people gradually fell silent.

"Erathia has suffered numerous invasions over the millennia. However, our ancestors fought bloodily and, with their bravery and tenacity, repelled the enemy's attacks again and again. ”

"We are still fighting! Any enemy who tries to invade Erathia will tremble under our swords! They will be left with countless corpses, and once again defeated by the warriors of Erathia!"

"If history hasn't taught them a lesson, let us remind them once again with our swords: Erathia can never be defeated!"

The crowd erupted in cheers!

"Look, these shameful intruders! they tremble in our roars! Do you know that you are afraid?! When your sword slashes at the unarmed villagers, do you ever think that it will soon be your turn?"

"I will not let you die like dogs! I will let you die in glory! I declare that in the Colosseum in the center of the city, our warriors will bravely face these shameless demons!"

"Citizens of Standwick, in the glorious and sacred Colosseum, you will see for yourselves how our warriors fight the enemy! Cheer for our warriors! Victory will belong to Standwick, and victory will belong to Erathia!!"

"Hooray!"

"Long live Her Majesty Queen Catherine!!"

People can't help but cry out in their hearts!

At the door of the Capitol, Laurel burst into tears and clapped her daughter. She was accompanied by a dozen or so members of Congress.

"She's really great, isn't she?"

"Yes, Your Majesty the Regent! she is not the daughter of you and His Majesty the great King Geffenhardt!"

"She made people no longer afraid of war, but burned their fighting spirit and courage in their hearts!"

"She is the hope of Erathia's future! As long as there is hope in people's hearts, then we will win the final victory!"

"Your Majesty the Queen Regent, how have you considered King Kendall's suggestion, although it is inappropriate to make it at this time...... But I believe that if King Kendall can abdicate smoothly and Princess Saiya and Princess Catherine form an alliance, they will end the war very quickly!"

"I'm not going to compromise with Kendall! are you going to approve of his despicable suggestion?" said Laurel at once.

"You are a brilliant politician, and you know that the best way to solve problems is to get the greatest political effect at the lowest cost!"

"Don't talk about it...... I won't say yes!"

"Your Majesty the Regent, you must think about it seriously, don't lose your mind just because Princess Catherine is your daughter......"

"She convinced me that we could have won without Kendall!" Laurel said firmly.

"How long will we have to wait, even if we drive Fiona away, we will have to turn back to Kendall! Would you like to see a civil war break out in Erathia?"

"Don't talk about it! Do I have to sacrifice my daughter's happiness for the sake of this damn politics? You are wrong, I am willing to pay any price for her happiness!"

"You are a great mother, but please don't forget that you are still a member of the House of Einfast! Look at these innocent soldiers and people in the square! How many of them will die after the long war and civil war? Your Majesty the Regent, their lives and deaths are now in your hands and your daughter's!"

"I'd better die first!" Laurel said angrily, "If you had died at the same age as the warriors, the trees by your grave would have been hugged!"

The parliamentarians were stunned. Laurel hurried into the council, leaving a bunch of old men standing there staring.

"She's like a lioness who protects her children with her life...... "An old man shook his head.

"Give her time to think about it! She's a great and wise leader, and I'm sure she'll make the right choice!"
