In the Imperial Ranks, purely in terms of combat power, the legions of the Northern Federation are the most powerful, but if we talk about which army has the most talented people? Which army is mostly polite and gentlemen? Which army has gathered the most versatile figures? In these aspects, if the Colorful Dragon Knights defending Gyeonggi consider themselves second, then absolutely no unit dares to stand up and say that they are the first.

More than 95% of the officers and more than 80% of the soldiers in the Colorful Dragon Knights enjoy the title of imperial nobles, and an adult nobleman once exaggeratedly said: "If the meteor shower destroys the entire camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights at night, then more than ninety percent of the nobles of the Amy Empire need to hang a white mourning belt in front of the door." The young Chi Hanfeng, who was still a viscount at the time, was also present, and he answered coldly: "Do you think that at night, there will be soldiers in the camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights?"

From an objective point of view, before Chi Hanfeng officially took over the Colorful Dragon Knights, at night, the camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights was indeed empty, and most of the children of these imperial families were active in the balls and banquets held by the empire every day at this time, and the bright knight uniforms were undoubtedly the most powerful weapon to impress innocent girls.

Of course, purely in terms of combat power, the Colorful Dragon Knights also have a super-first-class level, and the Amy Empire is founded by martial arts, and the high reward for martial arts is something that civilian officials cannot expect at all. The children of the nobles of the empire were extremely respectful of force.

In the previous battles that the Order has participated in, there has been a full cavalry squad of 350 men with only about 10 knights left after a few charges, and these more than 10 wounded knights will regroup and launch the final blow. Honor is definitely higher than life, and this aristocratic knight jīng god performance is difficult to see in other troops.

- "Knights of Excellence"

※※※

The words of the dragon knight were still echoing in the sky, and after a brief silence in the crowd at the south gate, it suddenly boiled.

Drums, trumpets, bagpipes...... Almost all the musical instruments that can appear in the establishment of the imperial ** team seem to be magical, taken out from the backs of the knights, and only when the expeditionary force returns from a great victory, the "March of Imperial Victory" that can only be enjoyed when the expeditionary force returns from the expedition immediately echoes in the snowy world.

Then, on the periphery of the crowd, two lightly armed knight troops trotted along both sides of the continental road in unison.

The horse is a pure sè carmine high-headed horse, the horse's head is raised high, the white sè haqi is particularly conspicuous in the cold winter, the bright red velvet horse is luxuriously trembling in the snow, and the red sè luan bell makes a pleasant sound with the horse's hooves trotting.

The knight is a pure black iron knight, the exact same plate leaf armor is carved with different family emblems, the front three rows of knights blow small bagpipes, and the back row of knights beats the small drum on the saddle, and the reins are scattered on the saddle.

The soft, fluid, and extremely rhythmic march of victory directs the knights and mounts behind to perform exactly the same movements.

In the trot, the rouge horse gently stretched its hooves to the beat of the drum, and the hooves seemed to pause deliberately in the air, and the strong muscles slid smoothly - these horses did not seem to run, but danced...... More precisely, their four-hooves tapped seem to be accompaniment to bagpipes and snare drums.

The knight on horseback runs like a dragonfly on the rouge horse, and the 2-74-meter-long knight's spear makes various movements in the sky, and the shiny tip of the spear glows blindly.

From the end of the line, every 3 meters, a knight restrained his mount, and when the knight at the front took out the bagpipes from his mouth and saluted the small mercenary group, a neat guard of welcome honor had appeared on both sides of the continental road.

"All of them, turn left and right!" the captain of the knight squadron gave the order with all his might, and all the knights led their mounts, facing the mainland road, their spears pointed at the sky, and the horses and men seemed to turn into frozen statues in an instant, except for the breath they breathed. As the small mercenary group advanced to the front of a row of knights, the knights on the left and right sides bowed their heads deeply, and their right hands swung extremely forcefully to their left chests, and the red sè helmet flower feathers bloomed in the wind......

Amy, Long, Mo Ye and the others all smiled bitterly, they didn't expect that such a big formation was really for the small mercenary group, this ...... The grand ceremony of the Redstone Emperor was also too unexpected. Long had seen a similar scene many years ago, when the Emperor ** team won a good fortune near the Boundary Forest, and in one fell swoop annihilated a horse thief who had been harming the Imperial Frontier and the Holy Court for a long time, and the army that fought at that time was the Colorful Dragon Knights, in terms of the scale of welcome, this time was not a little bigger than that time.

2000 meters is not very far, but it is extremely far away for the children of the small mercenary group at this time - every time you take a step forward, you can clearly feel that the three colored buildings are taller and bigger; the crowd under the colorful buildings is already a cheer, if it were not for the knights to maintain order, it is estimated that the crowd has pounced, and in the distance, it can already be mentioned that someone in the crowd is shouting: "Little mercenary group, good job!" There are countless girls wearing colorful dresses, and their excited faces are showing crimson in the cold wind...... The hearts of the teenagers beat faster and faster in the rhythm of the smooth bagpipes.

Different groups of people walked down on the white sè jade platform under the three color buildings, in the middle, it was the imperial king Hongshi Emperor, on the left side of the Hongshi Emperor was the imperial marshal Chi Datong, behind the marshal stood two black-clothed young men with completely different temperaments, and on the outside of the black-clothed young man was a dwarf boy wearing brown sè leather armor - all the people of the small mercenary group had hot eyes, Daqingshan, Chi Aotian, and Horns...... Behind the marshal there are more than 20 imperial officials, looking at the symbol on the top of the hat, the lowest rank is the emperor's ** active captain; on the right side of the Red Stone Emperor, there is Bode Delaware, who has just been promoted from the Imperial Minister of State to the Imperial Vice-Minister, and behind the Deputy Prime Minister is the same number of Imperial civil officials, the Imperial Minister of State, the Imperial Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Imperial Minister of Affairs...... Imperial civil ministers were required to wear imperial aristocratic dresses in public, and the tassels dominated by gold, silver, and red sè shè showed a dazzling light.

For the promotion of Marquis de Delaware, there are many rumors in the high-rise buildings of the empire, among which a considerable number of nobles and soldiers agree that due to the large-scale invasion of foreign races, the Chi family has become the biggest beneficiary, and Chimen has vaguely become the largest faction of the emperor's ** team. The marshal himself became the chief of staff of the empire during the war, and almost had the absolute right to mobilize troops in the absence of the Red Stone Emperor; the marshal's eldest son, the Imperial Tongyun Houchi Hantong, was transferred from the governor of the imperial defense area to the commander-in-chief of the second line corps in the southern Xinjiang of the empire, and with the disastrous victory of the imperial Lion River defense area, it was only a matter of time before His Excellency the Marquis took over all the operational command of the southern Xinjiang - and this time has already begun to be calculated in hours, which means that the Fire Lion Legion, one of the four main forces of the empire, will be loyal to Chimen in the near future; when Chi Hantong is transferred to the second line of the corps, the emperor ** The ministry did not send a new prefect to the Boundary Forest Defense District, and the eldest son of His Excellency the Marquis, who was only 22 years old, Viscount Chi Changyun (Zi Xiaoyue), became the youngest acting prefect of the Empire in his father's place by default, and also took over the remaining army of the Black Dragon Knights, one of the four main forces of the Empire.

Before this, the empire, whether it was a soldier or a nobleman, was not optimistic about the second son of the marshal - a scoundrel who insulted the reputation of the nobles, what he didn't expect was that this scoundrel appeared in people's field of vision again after disappearing for many years, not only won the absolute trust of the Red Stone Emperor, but also became the governor of the Gyeonggi Defense District of the empire, in just 3 years, while desperately looting money, the soldiers in the defense area were extremely outstanding, even the emperor ** The 28,000 troops of the Knights of the Colorful Dragon, which is the most difficult to manage in the team, are also full of praise for the ability of His Excellency the Earl.

In the beginning, there were still some nobles of hostile forces who thought that they were "scoundrels" who used their power to buy people's hearts and minds, etc., but as time went by, after some stories about the early days of His Excellency Earl's tenure were gradually revealed, everyone kept their mouths shut - according to rumors, after Chi Hanfeng entered the camp of the Colorful Dragon Knights for the first time, he accepted the challenge of 12 noble knights in a row on the same day, and the ending was without exception. In an army like the Knights of the Colorful Dragon, where there are more high-ranking nobles than ants, the strength surpasses all false fame. On that day, the 28,000 noble heads of the Knights of the Colorful Dragon Knights pledged allegiance to the Black Dragon Banner of Chimen. Not long ago, Lord Earl went to the Northern Federation of the Empire, where he served the longest, and will lead the 15,000 Empire's sharpest tiger and wolf division back to defend the empire.

Now, the youngest of the only 5 A-level mercenary groups in the pan-continent, the head Amy, the deputy head of the group, and Chi Aotian are all descendants of Chimen......

The number of the four major jīng rui troops of the empire accounts for 40% of the regular army of the empire, and the most conservative estimate of combat power in the regular army of the empire is 70%, and the four major jīng rui, the three major defense regions, and one A-level mercenary group are all loyal to one of the imperial factions, and this is not counting the other protégés of the Chi family in the army. This phenomenon may not be extinctional, but it is definitely unprecedented. There is no doubt that the empire is an unstable factor, at least as some people think.

As we all know, Marquis de Delaware, who is also one of the three famous families of the empire, has an unsolvable knot with the Chi family, and in history, the title of Delaware is the same as that of the Chi family, and they are all one of the six dukes of the founding of the empire, but from the first generation of family heads, the successive family heads suddenly lost their luck on the battlefield, and even lost the battle in a row, and finally lost the title of duke. Originally, the family was extremely optimistic about Marquis de Delaware, but what they didn't expect was that the young man in his prime was crippled by Chi Hanfeng and had no chance of being in the military.

According to imperial practice, the two chief ministers of the empire: the prime minister of the empire and the chief of affairs of the emperor must be from the army, and must have the title of marshal or above. Marquis de Delaware, who had no military merits, missed the heart of imperial power. In this case, the promotion of Marquis de Delaware, who does not have the title of marshal, might balance the overly concentrated imperial power, or at least make some gossip disappear.

Of course, no one knew that the little mercenary group that had just returned to Dìdū was that they and their great exploits had been placed on one end of the scales as an extremely heavy weight.

Under the color building on the right, it is composed of white, blue, red, and black, each of which is owned by an elderly person over 50 years old, the white sè is a priest, the blue sè is a neutral mage, the red sè is a sacred mage, and the black sè is a dark mage...... The sign on each mage's chest shows that the lowest of them is a first-class mage. At the front walked two people, one of whom had the symbol of a magus on his chest, and the other a great mage......

Under the Cai Lou on the left, there are more people, more Yan sè, ranging in age from their 20s to seventy or eighty years old, Amy's eyes are good, and she knows their identities at a glance from a distance - the head of the Imperial Mercenary Guild and the head of the A, B-level mercenary group registered in the Empire. Some of them have also dealt with each other.

Amy, Balbas, Long, Mo Ye, Reg and others led the small mercenary group to speed up, and people from four different directions gathered under the color building.

Da Qingshan, Chi Aotian, and Horns flashed out from behind the marshal, and merged into the small mercenary group cadre sequence from one side, according to the imperial military service law and the mercenary chapter, the mercenary group is a legal combat organization in the country where it is registered, and the ranking should be as follows: Imperial Knights, Imperial Regular Army, Imperial Mercenary Regiment, Imperial Swordsman Battalion, Noble Private Legion, Imperial Reservists, and Noble Fiefdoms should have expanded farmers. Strictly speaking, the Mercenary Regiment is a branch of the Empire's active military service.

The regulations of the active military personnel of the empire stipulate that the active military personnel in the court are not in the court to give military etiquette to the imperial king instead of the right knee curt, under the leadership of Amy, all the mercenaries of the small mercenary group put their right hands on their left chests and buried their heads deeply.

"Your Majesty, according to the mercenary duty of guarding the land, the Imperial A-level small mercenary group has completed the task of mercenaries guarding the land 10 rì from the 22nd rì of the autumn of the 4th year of the magic calendar to the 22nd rì of the autumn and March of the 4th year of the magic calendar, and now they are fighting out of the encirclement and returning to dìdū. During the period of defending the land for 10 years, a total of 1,257 enemy corpses were killed and killed, of which 4,000 enemy banners were captured and 68 were captured, of which 53 prisoners were stranded in Lionheart City due to injuries, and 15 werewolf prisoners accompanied the team. The small mercenary group had 623 mercenaries in the battle, 176 killed and 384 wounded......" Amy's tone gradually lowered.

Amy and the other four had been in Dìdū for 2 years, frequenting various social occasions, and in the imperial superstructure, it was well known that the boy Amy was definitely not a deep person, and most of the people who had contact with him knew that this was a teenager who was extremely happy at all times, of course, some of the more familiar people knew that this boy had an extremely humorous and unconventional side. This sad tone should not have come from this teenager.

The Redstone Emperor crossed the distance that should be observed between the monarch and the minister, took two steps, slowly patted Amy's shoulder, turned around and led the imperial officials back to the white jade platform under the color tower.

The master of ceremonies loudly announced:

"The little mercenary group gives prisoners and spoils—"

The 15 werewolves were pushed and shoved by the little mercenaries to the audience, and then, the 8 little mercenaries unfurled a battle flag, and the battle flag of the four thousand people of Fanos was unfurled in the wind. Amy walked slowly onto the stage with a fuchsia sword in her hand.

"Your Majesty, when the small mercenary group completed its mission in southern Xinjiang, by chance, they obtained a divine sword forged by the Creation God himself in the God's Enchantment-Suzaku, and the face of this long sword happened to be the same as His Majesty's title, so it is hereby dedicated to His Majesty. ”

Redstone and the ministers around him were shocked when they heard this, and the God of Creation cast it with his own hands? For a warrior, what he wants most is a weapon of excellent quality, generally speaking, if he obtains a weapon made by a famous craftsman in human history, it already takes an extremely rare opportunity; if he has a good enough background, he may be able to obtain a weapon built by a dwarven master craftsman from his family, and if he does not have enough strength, then he needs to be cautious, it is still a small matter to be targeted by thieves, and it is too common for a man to be innocent and responsible. Of course, if there is a strength like the dwarf Old Locke, there is no need to worry; in addition to these eye-catching divine weapons, in ancient oral traditions, the gods of the heavens also use the heavenly fire to create artifacts, and the sharpness of this weapon is unimaginable to ordinary people, and only in the imperial treasury or in the cave of an ancient dragon can there be such a weapon.

Is the Father of the Gods really a weapon built by the Creation God himself? Isn't such a weapon built on top of an artifact?

The Red Stone Emperor leaned over and took the Vermilion Bird Sword from Amy's hand, pulling the hilt of the sword with one hand and pushing the scabbard with the other, a red lightning bolt seemed to fall from the heavens and the earth, and the double blades of the long sword that came out of the sheath trembled slightly, and the sword body flowed with purple and red molten iron......

The Red Stone Emperor was also stunned for a moment, and then motioned to the guards around him to pull out his silver sè long sword, and the red sè thunderbolt flashed in the air and disappeared immediately, and the guards watched in distress as the front end of the long sword in his hand fell to the ground - everyone present knew that the long swords of His Majesty's Guardians were all issued by the Empire, at least by the hands of the contemporary great forges, and all of them were added with rare metals.

No one doubts that the sword is really the work of the Creation God.

Looking at the long sword overflowing with light, Hongshi shook his head lightly, the voice was not very loud, but everyone present could hear it in the silence: "Good sword, but, even better, most of the people in the small mercenary group can return safely." I was relieved. ”

The invisible heat wave instantly covered the teenagers of the small mercenary group, and tears burst into the eyes of many teenagers in the back row.

As soon as the words fell, a cold voice sounded: "If Your Majesty really has the heart, send some reinforcements earlier-"

The voice suddenly changed: "Xiaodou and the other 175 boys and girls may be able to return safely......"

Again, the voice was not high, but everyone around heard it. Everyone's face changed, and it was extremely rare for someone to dare to confront the emperor in person, but the fate was well known.
