"Your Highness, Your Highness, slow down!"
"When is this going on, and you're telling me to slow down??"
King Ethelaldo walked briskly through the palace, not listening to Queen Etheldordo's advice. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In a few moments, King Etheleldo came to the door of the palace chamber.
Bang dang!
King Ethelaldo flew up and kicked the door straight away.
Although I don't know what happened, just from the way King Ethelledo was too anxious to care about his image, he could guess that something extraordinary must have happened.
The members of the various ministries who were arguing hotly just now were all taken aback by this sudden scene, and they stopped arguing one after another.
The scene just now was so surreal that the officials just looked at King Etheleldo who was hurrying in, and they forgot to salute.
"General Clarence, report the situation!"
Before King Ethelledo's ass touched the chair, he commanded.
"Yes!" Clarence said to King Etheldor, "the last general is in ...... armor"
"Excuse me, excuse me!" interrupted Clarence with an impatient wave of his hand, King Ethelledor, "these false courtesies are excused, get down to business!"
"Yes!" Clarence arched his hand, "Since the Riglot army invaded our territory from the Golden Moon Forest, they have now captured Golden Moon, Foggy Moon, Dongxiang, Yeyu, Baohui, Songyu and their affiliated cities!"
"Due to the suddenness of the incident, the above cities were taken by surprise, and before they could resist, they were captured, and the soldiers guarding the city were all captured, and their lives and deaths were uncertain!"
As he spoke, Clarence looked up to see King Etheldordo's reaction.
But King Ethelaldo just stared at Clarence and didn't speak.
"It took less than six days for the Riglot Army to ......"
"Hmph!"
As soon as he finished speaking, King Etheleldo stood up suddenly, grabbed the teacup from the coffee table, and slammed it to the ground.
Smack!
The teacup that came into close contact with the ground shattered, and the tea in the cup splashed everywhere.
"Your Highness is angry!"
When the officials saw that King Etheldo was angry, they knelt down lazily and said weakly.
King Etheleldo frowned, glaring angrily at the kneeling officials.
To be so lazy in front of the monarch is to be extremely disrespectful to the monarch, and this is an act of seeking death at any time.
However, this also does not blame these officials.
After all, the previous dozens of kings of Ethelaredo were all bastards, eating and drinking all day long and waiting for death, regardless of state affairs, making a mess of the country, resulting in a situation in the current Etheleldo Kingdom, where the king has no majesty at all in the eyes of his ministers.
In other words, whether it is King Ethelaldo who is looked down upon by his courtiers, or whether the kingdom of Etheleldo is now declining and declining, or even the star has conquered the Golden Moon and other six cities in six days, King Etheleldo bears the main responsibility.
The current King Ethelledo, that is, Aixiang's father, has been up early and dark for more than 30 years since he ascended the throne, and he has been working hard and wholeheartedly for the country.
King Ethelaldo had already done his best, but he could barely maintain the status quo.
Of course, no matter how much they despise King Etheldordo in their hearts, the courage of the officials is not fat enough to dare to clash head-on with the king, not to mention that what King Ethelerdo has done in the past 30 years is obvious to all, so they collectively sell King Etheldordo a face, symbolically kneeling.
King Etheleldo was not angry at the extreme rudeness of the officials, or rather, he had only disappointment and helplessness for his ancestors.
Golden Moon City, Foggy Moon City, Dongxiang City, Yeyu City, Baohui City, and Songyu City are the six largest cities in the western part of the Ethelledo Kingdom, and they are also the "Golden Peaks" of one of the "Five Sacred Peaks" that resisted the attack of the Underworld when the Etheleldo Kingdom was still in the Holy Kingdom.
How can this super strong defense line, which even Emperor Shenfeng, who was known as the "War Demon King", look forward to, was beaten to the ground in less than six days, how can this not be surprising, distressing, or disappointing?
And what is even more distressing and unacceptable is that the Riglot Army has been lurking in the Golden Moon Forest for nearly four months, and it has not been detected at all.
Looking at the officials kneeling before him, King Etheleldo had nothing to say, he shook his head, and sat back in his chair in desperation.
"Get up!" said King Ethelaldo, holding his forehead with his hand, his face full of sorrow, "General, go on." ”
"Yes!" Clarence continued, "The last general expects that at the current speed of the Riglot army's attack, it will be possible to reach the Red Gold City in less than ten days!"
After Clarence finished speaking, he did not wait for King Ethelledor's instructions, and as soon as he gave his hand, he sat back in his seat.
King Etheldo slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the officials around him, his heart mixed with mixed feelings.
The faces of the officials were all expressions of "It's like this anyway, let's quickly divide the luggage and disperse the gang!"
King Ethelaldo knew very well that these officials must have packed their bags and were ready to run away at any moment.
In fact, King Etheleldo didn't blame them, not to mention that even he wanted to run away.
However, escaping means that all the hard work of more than 30 years has come to naught, it means that the life of the slaves will be on the back, it means that the Ethelledo family is a cowardly family, and it means that the lives of innocent people are ruined.
This is not what King Ethelaredo wants to see.
What King Etheleldo wanted was for the people to live in peace and contentment, and for the kingdom to prosper and strength.
If you give up at this time, you can't talk about anything.
Smack!
King Ethelaldo made up his mind and took the case.
King Ethelaldo glanced at the officials around him again and took a deep breath.
"All those who are willing to stay and defend the city with Lone, come with Lone!" said King Etheldordo with determination, "Scatter the others!
After saying that, King Ethelerdo waved his sleeves and walked towards the palace without looking back.
Section II
"Drive-!drive-!drive-......"
After a night's rest in the Darius Forest, we continued our journey.
Since we learned in the early hours of the morning three days ago that the Rigelot army had broken through the "Golden Peak", we have been on the road without stopping.
In order to speed up the march, Aika decided to divide her troops into two routes.
Aika handed over 30,000 foot soldiers to General Jin's command, and he led the remaining 20,000 cavalry to rush desperately day and night.
But even so, it would take a month and a half to get to Chijin City.
"Aixiang!" I rode the black wind, galloping beside Aixiang, "stop and rest, the horses can't hold it anymore!"
I don't remember the first time I tried to persuade Aika to stop and rest, but Aika was so anxious that she didn't take my suggestion seriously at all.
"The dragon man is right!" Shirley also persuaded on the side, "If this continues, there will be more and more people left behind!"
"Aika!"
"Aika!"
“......”
Aika was silent for a while.
"Huh!" Aika gritted her teeth and ordered loudly, "The whole army obeys the order! Rest on the spot for two hours! Count the number of people! Set up a pot to make rice!"
"Whew!"
After a while, the smoke rose from the ground, and the sound of eating and munching came and went.
"A wise decision, Aika!"
Me, Yeye, Aika, and Shirley were eating lunch around the campfire.
“......”
Aika just stared at the map, deaf to my words.
"Ahh
I sighed and snatched the map from Aika's hand.
"Hey!" Aika stood up, "Dragonman, what are you doing??Give me back the map!!"
"Since you're going to eat, concentrate on eating!" I was unmoved, "Isn't that what you told me, Aika?"
"That also depends on the time!" Aika replied unceremoniously, "Now that my motherland is in danger, where do I have the heart to pay attention to this?"
"I know you're in a hurry!but!" I suddenly turned pale, "even if you keep staring at the map, the road we have to go will not be shortened!"
“......”
When Aika heard this, she was speechless for a while, and stood in place with her fists clenched.
"Moreover, the horses of the soldiers are not as good as those of 'Black Wind' and 'Yangxue'!" I continued, "after running such a long way, they have long been sleepy and tired!"
“......”
Aika gritted her teeth and clenched her fists until they turned purple.
"The sergeant came to report just now, and more than 300 people have been left behind!"
Shirley continued.
"If I'm not mistaken, Yang Xue is actually almost unable to hold on!"
I pointed to Yangxue, who was still panting for air.
“......”
Aika stood face to face with me like this, silent for a long time.
"Stay!"
"Aika?"
After a long while, Aika slowly spoke.
"Since you are so afraid of hardship, tiredness, greed for life and death, just stay!" Aixiang said coldly, "It's good that Princess Ben comes alone!"
"Snow!"
After saying that, Aika turned around and ran towards Yangxue.
"Aika!"
"Blowing snow, driving-!"
Aika jumped on the horse, then whipped the whip and galloped away.
"Huh
"Black Wind!"
Yu-!-!
"Catch up with her!"
I jumped on Black Wind's back and commanded loudly.
Yu-!-!
"Aika!"
I don't know if the black wind is too fast, or if the snow is too tired to run, in short, I was behind Aixiang's horse at once.
"Damn!"
If I want to stop Aika, I have to run in front of Aika.
But Aixiang drove Yang Xue to twist left and right, and I couldn't surpass it.
"In that case!" I stood up on Black Wind's back, "don't blame me for being rude!"
With that, I jumped and jumped onto Yang Xue's back.
"Aika, stop!" I exclaimed, "You can't solve the problem like this!"
"Leave me alone!" Aika shook the reins violently, "Raise the snow, drive-!"
It seems that Aika is determined to leave.
In this case, it is even more impossible to let Aika go, no matter what method is used.
"I'm sorry, Aika!"
After I apologized in advance, I directly hugged Aika in a horizontal way.
"Huh-??"
Aika was taken aback.
But I didn't wait for Aika to react at all, and immediately jumped off Yangxue's back.
Yang Xue saw that the rider was off his back, braked sharply, and stopped.
"Let go of me, Dragonman!" Aika, who was held in my arms, reacted and struggled to protest, "You let me go!"
"Are you going to leave anyway?"
I asked.
"Yes!"
"What if I don't say yes?"
"For the sake of the motherland, I love Xiang Ethelledo, even if I want to raise my sword to you, I will unswervingly choose to leave!"
Aika replied resolutely.
"Really?" I breathed a sigh of relief, "is that your determination?"
"That's right!"
Aika replied again in an unquestioning tone.
"If I have a solution to the current crisis, Aixiang, are you willing to stay?"
"Huh?" Aika's eyes widened in surprise when she heard this, "What did you say?"
