Chapter 456: All-out war

General Adolf, as the main general of the Imperial Army's southward march, can be called a great achievement, and he has always had a high status in the Imperial Army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the Imperial Army, there has always been a saying that there is a landau and an Adolf, and the two of them served the former Emperor Raymond when they were young.

It was Raymond's right-hand man who conquered the world more than 20 years ago, and after the unification of the empire, Raymond consolidated the rule of the royal family.

One of his two trusted henchmen in his army was left in the royal capital to defend the royal family, and the other was sent to the frontier to intimidate enemy countries and local nobles.

Among them, the one who remained in the royal capital was undoubtedly Marshal Landau, who was given the title of generalissimo that was unique in the empire.

After all, Landau was born into a famous family, deeply rooted in the royal capital and had outstanding achievements, and in fact, his position in the army was firmly above Adolf's.

However, this did not affect Adolf's influence in the Imperial army, especially after the royal capital announced that Marshal Landau had died of illness.

Adolf naturally became the first person in the imperial military world, even though the third prince Wren was brave and good at fighting, and his rise in the army was very fast.

But Adolf's position was forged with blood during the war years, and as long as he didn't die for a day, he would be the first person in the imperial military after Landau.

In the battle for the succession to the throne, Leo and Layton did not think about winning over the big guy Adolf, but no matter how many times the envoy visited.

Even Leo himself came to visit, and Adolf said that he was not sick, and that he was the last guardian of the Empire, even if he was now dying.

is no longer the feared hero on the battlefield, but he also used his life to stand for the last shift of the empire.

He didn't want to see the empire fall apart because of infighting, so he watched the disputes between several princes, and it was said that this time the imperial legions went south.

General Adolf was also opposed, but in the end, for some reason, he nodded in agreement to lead the army.

Today, the Empire's Central Army, consisting of thirty main legions, is located outside of Rose City in a place called Thorntown.

Even though it was late at night, the old veteran of the battlefield still couldn't sleep at night, and he stood outside the military tent, looking in the direction of Rose City.

"General, aren't you resting? It's autumn now, and it's very cold at night, and if you don't go back to rest, you'll catch a cold and get sick." ”

An attendant who had followed Adolf for more than twenty years asked him with concern and put an overcoat over him.

"Ahem, it's really old, my body and bones are not as good as before, when I fought with His Majesty in the past, even if I didn't sleep for a few days and nights, I was still able to pick up the hammer energetically to kill the enemy, and at that time, the number of enemies killed was lost to me every time. ”

Adolf thought back to the past many years ago, a hearty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he coughed twice when the evening breeze blew.

"The general was brave and good at fighting on the battlefield back then, even today's His Royal Highness Rennes is not as good as you. ”

The attendants were also old, and the two old men talked about the blood-boiling past many years ago, and the lights flickered in the evening breeze in the distance.

"Hahahaha, it's been so many years in the blink of an eye, I've also fought for that guy in Landau for so many years, I can't compete with him for anything, but in terms of lifespan, he is one step ahead of me, speaking of which, he still owes me a bottle of wine, what year did you last see him?"

Adolf looked up at the starry night sky and sighed that the years when they fought side by side were a thing of the past.

Landau has not left the royal capital for more than 20 years, and he has not been to the royal capital for more than 20 years.

But now that Landau has gone one step ahead of him, there is no longer this opportunity.

"Speaking of which, I haven't been to Rose City for many years, I still came with Mr. Nandu, at that time we came to Rose City together to find the first Duke of Rose, and persuaded him to send troops to war, I still remember that at that time, roses were in full bloom, and flowers were blooming......"

Adolf was immersed in deep memories, fascinated by each bit, and he showed a smile that had not been on his lips for many years.

"I also met her in that sea of flowers, alas, but after so many years, I revisited my hometown, Mr. Nandu is gone, and the elegant Duke of Rose is also gone, and I actually came back here with such a posture of soldiers coming to the city, how would I feel if they knew that I had done such a bastard thing?"

Adolf shook his head slightly, the smile on his lips quickly turned bitter, and his face was old and he sighed.

"General, you are just carrying out orders, as a soldier of the Empire, obeying orders is originally a duty. ”

The same old squire persuaded behind him, and others wondered how Adolf could accept such an order, but he knew it.

"Do you obey orders? Alas, if the Rose family is destined to be destroyed, I would rather this beautiful land be destroyed in my own hands, and I can't do anything while watching others trample on this land, I really can't bear it, I can't bear it!"

Adolf's expression was sad, and he sighed deeply, and the fire in the Rose City in the distance was bright, and the soldiers on the city walls were actively on guard.

"Everything will come to an end, everything will come to an end, general, don't push yourself too hard. The attendant whispered comfort.

"Yes, everything needs to be stopped, and tomorrow we will start launching a general assault on Rose City!" Adolf took a deep breath and gave the final order.

The evening breeze was bleak, and the cold moonlight was cast into the fire-lit interior of the city, and the old man's words were not loud.

will push this bustling city into a treacherous situation from which it will never recover!

The dignitaries and dignitaries of the Rose City still couldn't sleep at night, and the nobles and officers gathered in the conference hall.

They have been arguing for more than half a month on the question of whether to fight or make peace, but until now there is still no conclusion.

"Now that the Imperial Army is strong, and they have taken Egret Harbor and choked the throat of our Rose Family, how can this battle be fought?"

"Is it because of this fear? The previous continuous retreat, the outside world said that the soldiers of our Rose family are eggs, and we are fed up with this anger!"

"War should be considered from the whole situation, don't you know how much it will cost to fight a war?

People chattered and quarreled, and day after day, the nobles barely fought in the halls.

"You are all enough, is this endless noise enough to solve the problem?, are you thinking about the interests of the Rose family, or your own?" a young girl in the first seat of the conference hall finally couldn't bear it anymore in the face of the arguing of these nobles, and scolded sharply.

"Wendy, you just need to sit in and I will decide on military and political affairs. A powerful middle-aged man standing next to the girl frowned.

He is the de facto ruler of the Rose family, the younger brother of the Duke of Rose and the governor of Rose City, Pompeii.

"Yes, Miss Wendy, with my Rose Knight Rose here, I can help you out. ”

A brightly dressed young knight smiled softly, he had a high status within the Rose family, he was the chief knight in command of the cavalry.

He is also Pompeii's own nephew and Wendy's avid suitor.

"No, I'm the head of the Rose family, it's my turn to call the shots, no more pointless quarrels, let's go to war. ”

Wendy stood up, and she gave her first order as the head of House Rose.
