Chapter 559: Eyeing the Fat
The Demak Federation has always given people the impression of being peace-loving and keen on business, so the people of the mainland often think that the federal army is not strong in combat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, there has been no full-scale war on the continent for a long time, and there are still aliens between the Demok Federation and the Lionheart Empire.
Not to mention the Lionheart Empire, which has only been established for more than 20 years, even if it is the Aries Dynasty in the previous dynasty, there are few wars with the Dmok Federation in history.
After the news spread that the Federation Army was going north, the whole country of the Demok Federation was boiling, and most of the people were in support of it.
"Great, it's finally time for a war, it's been too boring these days, you have to have a little passion, let's prove our strength." β
"Now that the empire is in turmoil, it's a good time to send troops, and those wine bags and rice bags in the council have finally made a wise decision. β
"Our domestic development has reached a bottleneck, just take this opportunity to open the northern market, so that the business will be easier to do." β
The enthusiasm of the people for the war was very high, and the situation of the city almost celebrating when the army left the city was long-awaited.
"Those idiots know that they are shouting about wars and wars, and do they really think that the empire is really so easy to gnaw down? β
"That's right, and the Blue Frost Kingdom in the north won't miss this opportunity, the elven army of the Blue Frost Kingdom is very powerful when I hear it. β
"Once this war starts, I really don't know when it will be the end, alas, it will be difficult to live a peaceful life in the future. β
There are also some elderly people who are not optimistic about this war, they sigh and keep shaking their heads, but after all, this is only the opinion of a small number of people.
"Is it finally going to the real battlefield? It's a little exciting to think about it, I've made an appointment with Mary to go back and marry her after the battle. β
"You are such an enviable lucky fellow to marry such a beautiful girl as Mary, and you will be able to return from this expedition soon, right?"
"Of course, it won't take long, and the chiefs say that this expedition is as simple as a spring outing, and the empire is now divided and vulnerable. β
The soldiers in their new and beautiful uniforms rushed to the battlefield with brisk steps, talking in low voices, looking very relaxed and stress-free.
It would be better for them to go hiking than to go to the battlefield, and they were all waiting to come back for a celebratory party.
"This time, my father asked me to serve as the commander of the expedition, and I wanted to shirk it, but he was resolute, but he also promised me, and when I returned from victory, he would let me resign from the military and enter the Senate to enter politics. β
The young commander, Green, dressed in an officer's uniform, said goodbye to his fiancΓ©e, Charana, at the door of the house, and the war horse waited restlessly ahead.
"Since it was requested by my father, then you can go, but I heard that there is a war going on in the royal capital now, and if you go this time, I'm afraid it will ......."
Shalana stopped talking at this point, she had heard some rumors about the imperial capital, and that guy was active there now.
But there were some other concerns, she didn't mention that name, but where could this be hidden from Green, who had been with her for three years?
"Do you mean that you will meet that guy Lin Ye? I also heard about him, he left the royal capital three years ago, but I didn't expect to come back three years later, and he was able to force Rhaegar to that point, he did a really good job, I must have two drinks with him when I go to the royal capital this time." β
Green was not shy about that name, and he mentioned it heartily, recalling the years in the royal capital, he still enjoyed it very much.
"But aren't you and him on opposite sides now, and if you fight, I'm a little worried, and I really don't know what to do. β
A deep sense of worry appeared on Shalana's face, and she hadn't slept well since she learned that Green was going to lead the Federation Army north.
She has always been grateful to that man, not to mention that the fishermen of Xinghuo Village are now living a prosperous life under his protection.
Under normal circumstances, she should never be on the opposite side of him, but her fiancΓ© Green will be on the battlefield as the commander.
This puts her in a dilemma, she doesn't want to see the two of them fight each other, but she doesn't know how to stop it.
"You can rest assured, put aside those messy positions and don't talk about it, he and I are still brothers, what can't be talked about between brothers?"
Green smiled lightly, and his adjutant was pacing back and forth anxiously in the distance, the army was leaving the city, but he, the commander, was still grinding.
"It would be better if that were the case, after all, he was kind to me, and if it weren't for him, we would ......"
Charana quickly twisted her head to the side, stopped talking, blushed, and gently touched her lower abdomen.
"I know, it's all up to the Lin Ye brothers to match us up, they're urging me, so I'll go." β
Green didn't notice the details of her, he wasn't a careful person in life, and he laughed and was about to leave.
"You know it, wait a minute...... Forget it, there's nothing to say, let's talk about it when you come back, you go, have a nice trip. β
Xia Lana stopped him because she wanted to tell him something, but after thinking about it, it was better not to burden him psychologically, so she shook her head.
"Why do you look weird? Forget it, I won't ask any more questions, then I'll be gone, I'll be back in three months at most, you have to wait for me. β
Green rolled over his horse, he smiled back and looked at Shalana again, and soon left quickly under the guard.
Until the figure stretched longer and longer and disappeared at the end of the line of sight, Xia Lana watched silently, and the sunset was also silently projected.
At the same time, on the clock tower of Liberty City, someone watched the expeditionary army from afar, and showed an eerie smile.
"That old fox of Taaffe, he is greedy for power and is reluctant to let go, so let his own son go to death? It's really interesting, hehe, but most of his descendants have been sent out, and now there are not many troops in the country that can still obey his mobilization, right?"
"In order to force him to sign the order to send troops, we also made great efforts, and thanks to the internal turmoil in the empire to this extent, otherwise we would not have found such a good opportunity, their eyes are aimed at the fat of the empire, but we are not so greedy, hehe. β
"That's right, that old fellow has been sitting in that position for too long, and we should have moved, and it's almost time for us to get started, and I'm really looking forward to seeing him on the gallows. β
Several black-robed men laughed gloomily on the clock tower, a storm was about to sweep over the Federation that had been peaceful for too long!
