Juana stared straight at the sword flying towards her, she looked at the soldiers present, she never regretted the choice she made today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's a pity" Belinda on the city wall couldn't help but be moved, and the proud red rose would definitely not regret what she had done.
The great axe and the sword brushed by, and General Armitage was a step slower after all, and the golden barrier rose out of thin air, and Daisy gathered the power of light with an extremely fast reaction. But as simple as piercing through a layer of paper, General Hannibal's sword pierced through the gold.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness. There was no lack of appreciation in Hannibal's eyes, but he still chose to stand on the opposite side of the little girl, perhaps because Juana 'woke up' too late.
"At least I'll give you a funeral that matches your identity. Hannibal bowed to the princess, and a faint tiredness could be seen on his weather-beaten face, and perhaps General Hannibal regretted his choice today.
The pale blue curtain of water rises, Juana is still making her last struggle, she is not reconciled, she does not want to die, her brother has not been punished, the kingdom has not yet returned to order...
"Thank you. Her Highness Juana looked around, and in the last moments of her life she really just wanted to take a look at those who had recognized her.
The girl closed her eyes slightly, she had already felt the sword wind piercing the water curtain, she had already felt the fierceness of the sword, and she couldn't stop this sword no matter what.
"It would be nice to see him one last time. "There is always a shadow of a teenager in the girl's heart, and those memories are so beautiful.
Juana opened her eyes suddenly, the sword gently cut through her face, a strand of her hair was cut off by the blade, she stood a little stunned, Juana's face was a little painful, her hand subconsciously touched her cheek. Juana could already smell the blood, and her hands were stained with a little blood, and the girl couldn't believe that the sharp sword had only slashed her cheek!
Her Royal Highness saw Yu Chen, she once thought that this kind of thing only existed in fairy tales, and now she has truly become the heroine of fairy tales.
"Didn't I tell you not to come here!" Daisy's eyes were slightly red, and she hurriedly ran to the carriage to help the panting teenager. She saw the bandages on Yu Chen's body, she knew what Yu Chen's injuries had become, but he still didn't listen to his words, he still came to his side. Just a few seconds ago, Yu Chen saw the sword, he threw out the dagger that his grandfather left him, Yu Chen didn't know if he could catch up, but Yu Chen knew that if he didn't give it a try, he might regret it for the rest of his life.
Luckily he did, and the dagger struck the sword that General Hannibal threw with all his might, and the sword, which had been greatly weakened after penetrating the two layers of shields, was finally taken away from its original trajectory by the dagger's impact.
A miracle happened, Her Royal Highness was only slightly scratched by the sword, and all the soldiers who had sworn allegiance burst into shouts of excitement, and they regarded Yu Chen as a hero. Juana hurriedly helped Yu Chen into the carriage with Daisy, looking at Yu Chen's weak body, Huana's heart was also very painful, she already owed this young man too much. But now was not the time for her own emotions, Juana glanced at the people around her who had sworn allegiance to her, and after a little hesitation, the princess stepped out of the carriage, and she returned to the crowd, to the side of her staunchest supporters.
The soldiers spontaneously formed a human wall for Her Highness Juana, and a thick tower shield surrounded Her Royal Highness in the middle. While rejoicing, the soldiers were more angry, feeling that they had been fooled.
Her Royal Highness looked coldly at the city wall, she knew that the matter was not over yet.
The spears were pointed at the walls, and the swords were pointed at their former commanders. What General Hannibal did really made them angry and ashamed!
The angry soldiers surrounded General Hannibal, and even General Hannibal's personal guards were a little dazed.
"Those who are willing to follow me, hold on to the sword in your hand, and if you can survive, you will become the heroes of the kingdom. General Hannibal didn't say much, his eyes kept looking into the distance.
Some went to the opposite side of General Hannibal, others clenched their swords in their hands. Bondakov stood firmly by General Hannibal's side this time, which really surprised Hannibal himself.
The ground shook, horses neighed in the distance, and the red rose sat on top of the city, she came like a queen, and the fluttering rose banner was the trump card in her hand!
Thousands of knights rushed into the city with lightning speed, they had already controlled the north gate, and as long as the main army of the Second Legion arrived, then no one could stop Aldrich from ruling the kingdom.
The Rose Knights are lined up, they belong to the Northern Army, they belong to the Red Rose, this is Belinda's trump card, this is the dead soldier of the Red Rose!
The knights who were loyal to Her Royal Highness were divided into several rows, and they formed a large phalanx, and the cavalry in the streets of the city would never play their due role.
General Armitage, at the behest of Juana, assumed command of this army loyal to the princess.
"Fight!" General Armitage yelled!
"Fight!" The soldiers who followed the princess were like rainbows, they rhythmically struck the ground with their weapons, they looked at the girl in blue armor, they were willing to die for her!
"Fight for His Highness Juan!"
"Fight for the kingdom!" With the first shout, the Queen's followers charged the Rose Knights!
General Armitage rushed to the front, knowing what a foolish decision it would be to let the Rose Knights charge first!
Juana's followers were imposing, and they felt from Her Royal Highness her determination, her will, and even more so of a true royal family!
The Knights of the Rose were caught by surprise by the countercharge, and their vanguard was inexplicably overwhelmed, but the well-trained troops were quickly regrouped. The streets were stained red with blood, and a soldier with his legs cut off was still crawling towards the Rose Knights with difficulty, and Her Royal Highness's performance gave them hope and filled their hearts with determination!
Brutal street battles are going on, one follower after another is falling, and the Knights of the Rose are gradually unable to bear the pressure, and these second-line troops who are usually in their eyes have dealt a huge blow to them this time.
Belinda looked out over the city, and she left her chair, still wearing the trench coat that the old butler had given her. Suddenly, Belinda left her trench coat off the city wall and her signature red armor underneath it, and then Belinda stepped down from the tower, determined to crush Juana in one fell swoop.
"Charge with me!" Belinda shouted, and hundreds of black-clad knights rushed out of the castle, the work of the old butler all his life, and it was ironic that this would have been the last defense of the Duke's castle.
"Rush, follow the general!" The morale of the Rose Knights was boosted, their queen had already led the charge, how could they not follow closely!
One by one, Juana's followers fell, and the wall of people in front of her became thinner and thinner, and Juana knew very well that these people were dying for her, and these people were fighting for her!
"Your Highness!" the soldiers armed with tower shields instinctively stopped Her Royal Highness.
"The battle situation is urgent, and I ask Your Highness to stay by the side of your subordinates. An officer-like knight risked his life to admonish.
"Give me the sword. Juana spoke softly.
The officer-like knight did not hesitate to hand over his sword, and when he spoke out to dissuade the princess, he was ready to do so.
Juana gently patted the officer's shoulder with the blade of her sword. "Have I ever been loyal to me?"
"I swear to follow Your Highness to the death!" replied the officer without hesitation.
"I swear by Juana Emmanue, that I will not abandon you, I will not give up your followers, as long as you remain faithful to me. ”
The officer's body trembled a little, he knew what the oath of Her Royal Highness the princess represented, this was the official recognition of his allegiance by Her Royal Highness, which was not the same as the unilateral allegiance of the lower to the superior, this was in the kingdom, no, this was the supreme honor for the knights of the entire Western Big 6!
The moment the officer got up, he had already become the king's guard.
The blade of the sword gently patted the shoulder of every soldier around her, and Her Highness Juana shouted to every soldier loyal to her: "I swear in the name of Juana Emmanue, 'I will not abandon you, I will not give up your followers, as long as you remain loyal to me.'" ”
From now on, Juana not only has a soldier loyal to her, but she also has a guard of her own!
"Fight with me!" Juana rushed towards the black knight who rushed out of the interior of the ducal castle.
"Protect Your Highness!" the Princess's followers rushed at their enemies like madness, some of them had never seen the royal family in their lives, some of them were hostile to the nobility, but now, the Princess's Daughter had given them what they had ever dreamed of!
"Kill!" the soldiers responded with swords to the maiden they had sworn allegiance, and the maiden fought with the soldiers.
There are many knights in gold by Juana's side, and those people are the elite of the Kleist family, and Daisy's friendship will always be remembered in her heart.
Red Rose's gaze narrowed to the carriage, and she still didn't want to be an enemy of the Kleist family until she had to.
Although Juana's followers have an unparalleled sense of honor and courage, there are too many enemies, and the opponent's combat power is obviously higher than their own, the defense line is shrinking little by little, the casualties are constantly increasing, and even some troops disappear in formation. The reason why they were able to hold out for so long was because the girl in blue armor was still fighting!
"Your Highness, you have really grown up. Looking at Her Royal Highness the princess, who was fighting bloodily, the Chief of the General Staff of Bondakov showed a pleased smile.
"You!" General Hannibal roared, his back pierced deep by a dagger.
Enraged, General Hannibal drew his sword from the hands of his guards and slashed at Bondakov. Bang, bang, bang, bang! The four water snakes that Bondakov shot out were all broken by Hannibal! In the next second, General Hannibal's sword was about to cut off Bondakov's head.
The sword stopped, resting on Bondakov's water curtain. Hannibal's expression was distorted, he couldn't believe it, how could this sword of his own not be able to break through the water curtain of the mere mid-level awakened!
"Are you aware of this?" Bondakov took off his monocle, and he gently wiped the dagger with the poison he had carefully prepared.
"You've lost. Bondakov whispered softly to General Hannibal's side, one second they were fighting to the death, and the next second they seemed to be the closest comrades-in-arms.
"Hey. General Hannibal's hands hung down weakly, he was only gently patted on the shoulder by the chief of the General Staff of Bondakov and fell to his knees, and now he could not even stand up even the simplest.
Hannibal had no complaints, and if he could, he would have liked to see how far the blue figure could go.
"General!"
"General, what's wrong with you?" General Hannibal's own men quickly gathered him in a circle, and they aimed their swords at Bondakov.
"Surrender or die. Bondakov put back on his new monocles, and his voice was majestic and unmistakable.
