Chapter 723: Victorious Western Expedition
Ever since the news of the attack on all sides of the empire reached the royal capital, Lin Ye, who had just won the imperial civil war and supported Wendy's ascension to the throne, went north. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The entire royal capital is in a very busy state, and one has just experienced the destruction of the civil war, and the royal capital is in ruins and needs to be rebuilt.
Second, the royal capital should also be used as a strategic transit point, continuously sending supplies to the southern front, and even guarding against the possibility of the collapse of the southern front.
The rout of any front could lead to the complete collapse of the entire empire, and for a time the people in the royal capital were panicked, and these three months were extraordinarily long.
Of course, compared to the time of the civil war, this time it was to defend against foreign enemies, and everyone worked together to dedicate their strength with 12 points of enthusiasm.
The good news has also been continuously transmitted to the royal capital, so that people can clearly grasp the recent situation of all fronts and celebrate it.
"Has the elven army been defeated? That's the strongest army in the mainland, and it was defeated by the Duke like this, it's really amazing!"
"Has the Combined Fleet been burned clean by a fire? How can this be done, this is incredible, amazing!"
"The Union forces on the Southern Front also retreated, announcing the end of the war on the Southern Frontier, and it is said that the Duke once went to the Free City of the Federation. ”
"And the Bright Crusade on the west side was also flooded by the Duke Lord's magnified water, it is really a genius to be able to think of such a tactic!"
The people of the royal capital were so excited by the good news that they began to celebrate the victory in the streets.
Originally, they were worried about the future of the Empire, but now it seems that they have successfully defended their territory, how exciting it is.
The populace held a revelry for several days in quick succession, but there were still some people in the court who were worried, although this was only in private.
In public, Wendy still has to put on a smiling face and share the joy of victory with the people, and she must give them encouragement.
It was a trivial thing she could do, but when night came, she looked up at the moonlight in the sky and was worried.
"Your Majesty, are you worried about Duke Lin Ye, although he defeated the Bright Crusade, he did not choose to triumph, but personally led the main army to the west, in this case, he should want to completely solve the problem of the Bright Church, otherwise it will always be a threat. ”
Solo, the former Inspector General of the Empire, was released from prison after the end of the Civil War and was appointed by Wendy as the new Minister of the Interior, overseeing the current affairs of the Empire.
He walked behind Wendy, who was in a relationship with the monarch during the day, and he actively handled various government affairs for the recovery of the empire.
And after finishing work at night, he is like Wendy's brother, after all, he grew up watching her.
He was filled with emotion at the young man who had led the expedition to the west, where they had discussed the future of the country a few years earlier.
At that time, he was just a duke in a poor country who had no money in his hands, and he was in a precarious situation in the royal capital.
Some people tried to put him to death, and several times they were in danger, and they almost didn't escape from the royal capital, and they were completely buried here.
But after a few years, he has become the savior of the empire, not only won a great victory in the civil war of the empire, but also personally went out to quell the unprecedented crisis of the empire being attacked from all sides, if there are still people who doubt it at the end of the civil war.
Thinking that he was always an outsider and could not become the emperor of the empire, this time saved the empire from the crisis.
His popularity rose to its zenith, and young people took pride in being able to serve him, especially during the Southern War.
A steady stream of young people flocked to Dusk to fight against Takayama City, and even if they couldn't go to the battlefield in person, they were desperately contributing to the supply lines.
At this time, Solo finally admitted that he was right and that his philosophy was wrong, but what did it matter if he was wrong.
He also found his way to go, and he became more and more curious about what kind of existence the new world was described by the young man's mouth.
"Historically, it has always been the Church meddling in the affairs of various places, and no one has ever tried to attack the Holy City of Light, and it is a long way from the Empire to the Holy City of Light, and all the areas along the way are the sphere of influence of the Church of Light, I am afraid this is a very difficult process. ”
Wendy shook her head slightly, she had already looked at the map, and to reach the Holy City of Light from the western border of the empire, she had to pass through several regions.
The distance is so far that it almost runs around the borders of the entire empire, and the terrain is treacherous, and it is definitely a long expedition.
In addition, the Church of Light was able to reach the borders of the Empire from the Holy City, and there were devout believers who volunteered to supply them along the way.
However, Lin Ye's westward advance was different, they were bound to encounter stubborn resistance, and the supply line was too long, they simply could not get supplies from the country, no matter how you look at it, this expedition is not a wise choice, and Wendy will inevitably be worried about it.
"In addition to his descendant Far East Army and the Orc Army, this expedition has also been joined by a newly recruited expeditionary force from the Empire, with a total of about 20,000 people, although it seems that it will not be easy to march towards the Holy City, but Duke Lin Ye must have his plans. ”
"He knows very well what he is doing and what the consequences will bring, he can always turn defeat into victory in adverse situations, this is true in the civil war of the Empire, and it is also the same when defending against foreign invasions, just give him a little more trust, and he will be fine. ”
Solo sighed, when they received the good news of the war on the Western Front, they also sent a handwritten letter from Lin Ye, saying that he had led the army to the Holy City, and wanted to destroy this holy city that had been entrenched on the mainland for hundreds of years and had never fallen in one fell swoop.
This was definitely an epoch-making expedition, and in fact there were no more than five people in the whole king who knew about it.
Most people were still waiting for the triumph of Duke Lin Ye's class and then the grand celebration, but they didn't know that this time the heroes of the empire did not stop.
His gaze was deeper than anyone else's, and he knew very well that if he didn't completely crush that tenacious force.
The continent is in a state of instability at any time, and today Gregor is able to lead an expeditionary force of 100,000 to invade the territory of the Empire.
There is no guarantee that tomorrow the Pope will lead another 100,000 expeditionary force to invade again, and it will not be so easy to win at that time!
"He is always so stubborn in doing things, he only believes that he is right, and once he decides, he will go on without hesitation, he doesn't give people room to negotiate at all, just gives a 'result', what else can he do besides waiting and blessing?"
Wendy bit her lip and shook her head slightly, her expression a little gloomy, and the moonlight cast on her face.
Thousands of miles away, on the western border of the Empire, the newly victorious army is marching!
