Chapter 499: Shaking the Throne
On the fourth day of the surrender of the Imperial Army, it was rare for a colorful snow to fall in Rose City, which had not snowed for many years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The cavalrymen from the Far East were not surprised by this, but they felt that the south was so humid that they could not go out and walk around without a fire.
The locals cheered, after all, it had not snowed in Rose City for more than 20 years, and the young people had never seen it at all.
The children happily ran out and stepped on the thin layer of snow that was not very thick, stepping on one footprint after another.
They hoped that the snow would fall a little more, a little more, even if it was cold, because then they would be able to have a snowball fight as the old man said, which was an unprecedented life experience, and not only the children, but also the soldiers were very excited about the appearance of this heavy snowfall.
After all, walking in the snow with the young girls is something that those of them who have never seen snow dare not think of.
They took a few days off after the war, and the war was so tiring that it was a long process to digest the experience.
The soldiers of the Imperial Army were lying in the camp watching the snow, and after the joy of the aftermath of the catastrophe, they were left at a loss.
I don't know what to do in the smoke of this troubled world, and the order for their disposal has not yet been issued, and the soldiers are already talking about it.
"The Rose people didn't kill us, but what will they do with us?
"As was customary for prisoners of war, unless someone paid us for ransom, we would be sent to work in a very harsh environment. ”
"We are not noble lords, if we have money, we will not come to be soldiers, who will come to ransom us, it seems that we can only be sent to be coolies. ”
Hey, I'm only twenty years old, I'm not married, and I still have a family. ”
"Be content if you can live, don't ask too much, compared to those brothers who died in battle, we don't know how lucky we are. ”
The young soldiers sighed, not optimistic about the future, after all, they were the vanquished, and the vanquished had no right to speak.
The snowflakes in the sky slowly fell, hiding the blood stains left on the battlefield, and everything was so calm, as if nothing had happened.
As the snow thickened, soon children built snowmen, kneading snow and smashing it through the air, with soldiers patrolling the streets.
In the Governor's Palace in Rose City, all the officers who could speak were gathered in one place at this time, and an important post-war meeting was being held.
"It is all thanks to your command Lord Duke, and the strength of the Far Eastern Cavalry led by Lord Lancelot, that we won the final victory of the war, my lord, you are really indispensable, if it were not for you, our Rose family would have been indispensable, my lord, you are really the great savior of the Rose family. ”
Some officers sincerely praised that Lin Ye played a vital role in this war, and no one could replace him.
"What did you say, what is the great savior? Lord Duke was originally our own member of the Rose family, right? And now we have completely torn our faces with the Empire, and we don't need the Empire's canonization at all, so in my opinion, it's better to settle things now." ”
White gave Panda a crutch, and Panda's arm was still bandaged, and he was about to scold him by White's crutch.
But when he realized the color that White had given him, he glanced in Wendy's direction, and immediately understood, isn't this the time to strike while the iron is hot?
"Ah yes, Lord Duke is indeed our own person of the Rose family, when Mr. Nandu was there, he and the previous Duke were drinking and chatting, I was present at the time, I really saw it when Duke Lin Ye and Miss Wendy got engaged, absolutely yes, yes, that's it. ”
Panda immediately began to ramble nonsense, after all, those who knew the inside story knew that this engagement was set by Madame Rose.
At that time, the first duke was dead, and Madame Rose was widowed, and who didn't know that Madame Rose was with Mr. Nandu back then.
It's just that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless, and now the children of the two people have come together, which can be regarded as a happy thing.
"Everything else has slowed down for the time being, and now we should move on to something else. Lin Ye shook his head.
He didn't let up at the end of the war, Lancelot stood by his side, and Wendy hung her head down from afar.
"Well, what could be more important than the Duke and Miss Wendy's life?"
Panda was stunned, he followed Lin Ye's point, and saw that he pointed to the location of Rose City on the map.
"Now that we have defeated the central army of the three main forces of the Empire, because Wren is still leading the border army to clear the remnants of Leighton, the Empire is now in a very weak state, and the attitude of the local governors towards Rhaegar is not clear, and only ...... clearly support Rhaegar
Lin Ye's fingers moved on the map, pointing out a few points, he was thinking about something else when Panda and the others said those words just now.
A plan had already appeared in his mind, and he had not listened to Panda and them, and his mind was all about the plan at the moment.
"These provinces, although each province can draw about five legions, but these local legions are mediocre in battle, and there is nothing to fear, so if you follow this route, you can reach this position before spring comes. ”
Lin Ye sketched a route on the map, and finally stopped at a location, and the officers who were originally immersed in the joy of celebration were stunned.
"That's the town of Talen, and Lord Duke, what do you mean by before spring arrives?" White's eyes widened.
He stammered and asked, in his opinion, that if he had won the battle, he should rest well and wait for this long and harsh winter.
But listening to Lin Ye's tone, it seemed that something was not quite right, this Duke should not be going to do something crazy, right?
"Now that the Imperial army is empty, and you have already noticed the abnormal weather, this year will usher in a long and harsh winter, even the Rose City is snowing, you can imagine how severe the royal capital should be, and this will also be the most lax time for the imperial side. ”
Lin Ye's fingers quickly moved to the most central point on the map of the empire, and he was no stranger to this place.
No stranger to everyone present, even to all the subjects of the entire empire.
Because this is the royal capital of the empire, Lin Ye has decided to make a move towards the royal capital and directly shake the throne of Rhaegara!
