Chapter 268: Question
Aegie stood on top of Giroud, sword in hand, standing tall and spirited, looking like a dragon knight. When everyone saw it, they respected such a person from the bottom of their hearts. Even if the divided rebel coalition was determined to confront Age, they were equally impressed by Edge's courage.
Aegie didn't make a sensational speech, not even a word. This stunned everyone for a while, people like him who stand on a high place and look down on others, don't they all like to play a trick?
But even though Edge didn't say anything, everyone knew what he meant. Holding a big sword in his hand, he stared coldly...... Isn't that a clear statement that 'whoever dares to resist will be killed'?
But there were still those who resisted.
The leaders who led the united forces of the divided rebels were the first to raise their weapons and attack Age. Aiji frowned when he saw it, he really didn't know what they thought, was it necessary to do this kind of death-seeking thing?
Not only Edge, but everyone felt that the actions of the leaders were self-defeating. They knew that what would happen next would be that the leaders would die tragically under Age's sword, and these leaders would not even be able to touch a single hair of Age.
But Aegie didn't immediately use the Sky Breaker to meet the leaders, he just asked Giroud to move. Giroud then shook his head, gasped for breath, and looked at the leaders with a pair of eyes, and suddenly the leaders froze, stopped in place and trembled, unable to make any more attacks.
"I just want to know why you're against me...... No, it's my new royal power that marches into the entire empire and brings a new future to the entire empire?"
"What are you resisting so desperately, for the words that you have sworn to your soldiers?"
"I admit that the experience of standing on a high platform and saying a rousing word to a man who follows him can be empowering and to fight for it...... But ......"
"The strong have to identify with those who are stronger than him...... Otherwise...... You have nothing but a bit of tragedy bestowed by others!"
"There is no doubt that I am the one who is better than you. So...... Which outcome are you going to choose? Do you agree with me...... Or am I giving you a tragic death?"
Edge looked at the leaders of the several divided rebel coalition forces who were too frightened by Giroud's dragon power to move, and said calmly but with a little majesty.
He had given the leaders of the rebellion a chance.
But at the same time, there was a serious threat.
The next step is to see what the leaders should choose.
As a result, there are still people who are not afraid of death. Not everyone was succumbed to Edge's strength, and two of the leaders reacted and continued to attack Edge.
They showed admirable courage.
But Aegie easily granted them death. They died under Giroud's dragon's claws, and were slammed to the ground, sinking deep into the ground and dying.
Edge showed no mercy.
When the remaining leaders saw this, their legs trembled with fright. In the end, they collapsed on the ground and never resisted again.
No one blames them for doing it. The soldiers who followed them knew that this was the case, and even a large part of the soldiers were glad that the leaders had chosen to surrender. If they don't surrender, I'm afraid they will have to pay an even heavier price. You can't fight with a dragon knight.
After the combined forces of the divided rebels surrendered, Aegie gathered them and spoke briefly. He just hoped that everyone would spend the least amount of time to adapt to the reunited forces of the Rebel Army. And remember the purpose of the original establishment of their rebel forces, to save this invaded empire.
Aiji said frankly that although everyone belongs to the new royal forces, from now on there will be no more rebel forces, only new royal forces. But even so, all the members of the new royal power have a common purpose, which is to save the entire empire. So everyone uniting together has an inevitable result, as long as everyone thinks about the empire.
For the sake of the empire, in other words, to strive for a good life for yourself. This kind of thing is known to everyone who has been through the war. They can naturally understand what Edge meant, and then they just hope that the leader of the new royal forces, Princess Bailey, who has royal blood, can really lead them to victory in the war and bring new life to this land.
The combined forces of the rebels, who had just fought and suddenly came together, had a lot of problems to solve. Although it is true that the united forces of the rebel army that split out surrendered, some of them were still resentful and unwilling to accept such a result. Therefore, when they were reorganized, they were prone to clash with the soldiers of Yefilolol.
In the same way, the soldiers who were defending the city of Yefilol just now were also very unhappy with some of the soldiers of the rebel coalition forces who had split off. These are the same people who killed their brothers, how can they treat them well.
It's such a contradiction that bothers Aegie and Richie, not to mention all kinds of other problems, it seems that it is not easy to rebuild the combined forces of the rebels into the original united army.
In addition to the internal affairs of the army, there is another problem that worries Richie: now that the city of Yefilol has been publicly declared the territory of the new royal forces, it means that the new royal forces have marched into the center, which undoubtedly begins direct contact with the iron-blooded forces in the north and the invading forces of the Bhikkhuno Empire in the east.
Then, it is believed that the city of Jefilol will be attacked by one of these two forces in the near future. However, for Yefilol City, which is now in trouble with even reorganization, it is extremely dangerous to be attacked by either side, and it may even be captured.
The iron-blooded forces led by Fimax in the north have long ruled large areas of the northern land, and they have been well protected from the invasion of the Bhikkhu Ye Empire, and there are no bandits. All this is inseparable from the wise, brave and mighty General Fermes. As a result, Fermes had a high reputation not only in the northern regions, but throughout the empire.
The first person to be dissatisfied with the corrupt royal rule and rise up was Fermes. And now the person who leads the new royal power is a member of the royal family, that is, Bailey. This kind of thing will undoubtedly make people talk about it.
It stands to reason that Bailey and Fimes are both people who understand the overall situation and have a heart to save the empire, so joining forces is the most correct thing to do. But because Bailey is the heir of the royal family, at this point, will it affect the decision-making of the two parties?
Iron-blooded forces aside, the forces of the Bhikshu Empire in the east would definitely not be watching Yefilol City. Especially now that Prince Sino of the Bhikkhu Empire has arrived, he will definitely use tough means to conquer it. If you guessed correctly, Yefilol City will soon usher in a new crisis.
Stabilizing the situation in Yefilol City is the most important problem for Aegie and them to solve at this time.
