Chapter I

In late March 177 of the imperial calendar, Li Yuxuan and his party left the Alps, and a shocking news shocked the three of them.

In mid-February 177, 40,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry of the Newingman Empire crossed the Kamiao River and invaded the kingdom of Fabre. Fabre "Mad Lion" Camp himself led an army of 50,000 to resist, and after several successive victories, he was trapped by the enemy and was now besieged in a ravine near the Kamyu River, and the whole kingdom was now in a leaderless chaos.

"Mad Lion" Camp has always been the undefeated god of war in the eyes of Fabre's subjects, and is the psychological barrier of the Fabre Kingdom. And at this moment, the siege of Camp and the main army of the kingdom undoubtedly destroyed the psychological defense line of Fabre's subjects. In the absence of Axis figures, the kingdom was no longer able to assemble an army to aid the king, who was still holding the border.

However, it seems that God has destined that the Kingdom of Fabre will not withdraw from the historical stage of the continent with such an ending. The heir to the kingdom, Crown Prince Tok Orlando is no longer the coward he once was, and months of training and martial arts as powerful as Corinth, the "Knight of the Two Blades", make him a qualified heir to the kingdom. Moreover, behind him at this moment is the greatest powerhouse of this era, an overlord destined to affect the direction of the mainland's history, Li Yuxuan.

After visiting his mother, Titian, Tork Orlando, in his capacity as Crown Prince of Fabre, convened an emergency meeting of the Kingdom's Cabinet. The ministers who attended the meeting could not believe their eyes, and the crown prince Tork Orlando, who had always been ridiculed by many nobles for his cowardice and incompetence, sat on his father's throne without showing the slightest fluster, and his eyes scanned the cabinet members present.

"During the period when my father was trapped in the border, none of the ministers made suggestions or organized reinforcements to try to rescue the main force of the kingdom that was besieged in the border valley, and I think everyone here is to blame for this!"

Teucer's first words shocked all the old ministers present, and it seemed that the crown prince and the legendary figure were two people at all. Not only did he inherit his father's majesty, but he also had the power of a monarch to deter his subjects. So far, no more of Fabre's minister has dared to underestimate the seventeen-year-old crown prince.

"Your Majesty is terrified, please punish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" all the cabinet ministers stood up.

"The most urgent task of the kingdom now is to rescue the besieged main force of the kingdom, and as for your punishment, I think it is better to wait for my father to come back and then hand it over to my father. In the future, I hope that you will be united in the fight for the kingdom of Fabre, and I hope that when my father returns, he will never punish you again for your past mistakes. ”

Teucer's words are both powerful and powerful, fully demonstrating his command and organization skills as a successor to the kingdom.

In fact, what Teucer said now was taught to him by Li Yuxuan in advance, and even the tone and tone were corrected by Li Yuxuan's guidance.

"Prime Minister, I just came back, although I have heard some about the battle situation on the front line along the way, but what happened to the specific situation, I think you should know best!"

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" the old prime minister glanced around at his colleagues and began to report to the crown prince on the situation of the battle on the border, "In the middle of February this year, on February 16 to be exact, the 60,000 troops of the Newman Empire crossed the Kamiao River on the border and invaded the hinterland of our kingdom. Due to the haste of the incident, in the early days of the battle, our army was unable to withstand the enemy's attack, lost a large amount of land, and nearly a quarter of the territory fell, and Newingman's cavalry penetrated as far as 300 miles into our borders. On February 27, our king led our main army of about 50,000 men to the west to meet the invading army of the Newman Empire. In the engagement, with the bravery of our king, our army won several battles one after another, and for a time pressed the enemy army in the Kamiao River area, but due to logistical and other problems, it was unable to repel the invading enemy in one go. On 7 March, the enemy and us were at a stalemate in an area about 100 miles deep into our territory. But for some unknown reason, on March 10, the front line suddenly came to the battle report that the main force of our army was besieged in a ravine, and the specific situation is still not very clear. Since the 10th of this month, there has been no report of battle from the front. ”

Although everyone present except for Teucer was already aware of the above situation, the Prime Minister still had a sad and angry look on his face when he recounted it.

"Now that everything is in front of us, we have to face it. Your Excellency, the economic and civil aspects of the kingdom are up to you. Whatever the means, it is necessary to maintain order in the capital first and foremost, and there must be absolutely no room for chaos. At the same time, Shang Shang had to prepare sufficient military supplies and grain and grass supplies, not to allow the occurrence of food looting in the city, and to supervise those food injuries and prohibit them from hoarding. In an extraordinary period, the purchase and sale of grain can be temporarily nationalized. In short, the first priority is to calm the hearts of the people. ”

"Yes!" replied the Prime Minister and the Business Scholar, standing up and bowing.

"Very good, you all go down, and stay with the commander of the capital guard. ”
