General again!

The situation is like chess!

In this game, it was as if Shiloh was standing at the foot of the steps, and once again gained the upper hand!

Although the emperor's hidden ambush caused a panic, he was steadily seen through by Xiluo.

Hundreds of elite soldiers, it really doesn't seem to be enough to turn the tables!

As long as you see the truth clearly, even the situation in this palace cannot be reversed!

Even if the Storm Army is elite, it can face the equally elite Thor's Whip, and Thor's Whip still has a numerical advantage, with the decisive morale of the rebels who will die if they don't succeed・・・・・・ plus outside the palace, there are thousands or even tens of thousands of Thor's Whip rebels in this city who may come to the palace at any time!

This army, which has been deeply influenced by the Rollin family, will complete the "purge" at any time and join the ranks of the rebellion to approach the palace!!

And in the city, what else does the emperor rely on?

Relying on the army of a few thousand men who were already mired in the riots...... Everyone knows that those soldiers in the security station are purely the strength of the second-line garrison, not to mention the lack of training on weekdays, and they also have to take on the task of maintaining the daily law and order of the imperial capital, whether it is equipment or combat effectiveness, they are far from being the opponent of the elite ace army created by the Thunder God Whip with huge financial tilt!

No one knew what the emperor was still thinking in his heart, who was standing quietly on the steps at the moment.

Perhaps, regret?

I regret that I trusted the Rollin family too much before, and let the Rollin family infiltrate the second division of the Thor Whip too deeply! I regret that I shouldn't have trusted Aker too much...... But even the patriarch of the Rollin family, Berion, didn't see his son's rebellious intentions clearly, let alone the emperor himself?

Perhaps, is it annoyance? Frustration that although he has set up a situation tonight, he is ready to hide in ambush and catch a few big fish against him? But he did not expect that the bait is too fragrant, but his fishing line is too thin, and what he caught is not a big fish but a giant shark that can devour people?

At this moment, anglers are in danger of being devoured by giant sharks・・・・・・

Marcy Augustine, what do you have? What else do you have?!

"Marcy Augustine, what do you have? What else do you have?!"

A maniacal laugh came.

Duzel laughed wildly and pointed at the Emperor: "You are at the end of your rope!!Marhi!!"

“... The Emperor looked coldly at this "real Augustine".

"You mistrusted Aker and let the second division of Thor's Whip, which was supposed to be your strongest strength, fight back!!You doubted the royal city guards and let the guards loyal to you withdraw from the city!!Haha! You were fooled and transferred Carmen, the head of the magic academy! Otherwise, you can at least count on a large number of magicians from the magic academy to stand by your side to protect you!!But now? What else do you have!!"

Duzel frantically walked a few steps forward as if he had been holding back humiliation and resentment for many years, and finally vented at this moment, his steps even staggered a little, strode to Shiloh's side, and even stood in front of Shiloh, pointed at the emperor, and laughed wildly: "Put down the sword in your hand!!Marhi!!I swear by my honor, I can spare the lives of these people around you!!, but you are ・・・・・・ destined not to live until the sunrise of the day!!Destined to ・・・・・・"

At this moment, the emperor ...... Laughed.

With a smile full of mockery and banter, he pointed at Duzel.

"What are you laughing at・・・・・・ you are laughing at?" Duzel seemed to be irritated by the smile.

"Laughing at you, of course. The Emperor sighed pityingly: "I don't know what benefits Shiloh promised you, so that you guys dare to follow him・・・・・・ indeed, I was fooled by him, and as a result, the cleansing of the Gretin family made you completely rebellious against me." But do you think that this brother of mine is an angel? No, Duzel, you fool with no wisdom and no name. This brother of mine is a butcher who is more cruel and ruthless than me!"

"......" Duzel seemed to be a little sluggish.

"What an idiot. The Emperor pursed the corners of his lips disdainfully: "Do you think that even if he overthrows me, he will keep you guys who call yourself 'the real Augustine' and continue to act as a cancer in this empire?

Duzel. At this very moment when you stood up tonight...... Regardless of the outcome of tonight, the one who sits on this throne is me or my dear brother, you and your comrades, you who call yourself 'the real Augustine,' really don't live to dawn!"

"You...... What do you say?!"

Facing the emperor's calm and mocking eyes, Duzel suddenly instinctively panicked.

Although he desperately told himself, this was the other party's provocation, and it was this dog emperor who tried to disturb the trajectory of his mind.

But at the bottom of my heart, there is a trace of cold air slowly rising!!

The Emperor ignored the clown, his eyes crossed him, and landed on Shiloh.

"I suddenly remembered that there seems to be a deliberate omission in what you just said. You asked Aker to scatter the Second Division all over the city, and in addition to cleaning it in batches, there was also a plan, that is, ・・・・・・ take the opportunity to clean up all those flies and dogs in Dongyuan, right? If it were you, I wouldn't have kept these guys. It would be wise to take advantage of this chaotic night to sweep them away completely...... By the way, when will your people do it?"

The Emperor's tone seemed to be gossiping with Shiloh.

Dongyuan!!

Duzel's whole body suddenly froze!

East Garden.

The main road leading to the East Garden was empty.

Tonight's continuous bloody chaos has almost turned the originally flowery East Garden into a ruin. Thousands of rioters armed with swords raised the "Augustine" imperial flag, and the golden thorn flower banner was planted at the intersection of the main street in front of the East Garden.

The bodies on the ground had not been cleared, and the streets were littered with the remains of dead vigilante patrol soldiers. The armor and weapons of these soldiers had been stripped of their bodies, but they were now wearing the bodies of the rioters.

Several fires in Dongyuan have not been extinguished, but the isolation zone has been artificially cleared, and with the heavy snowfall tonight, the fire has gradually weakened.

However, the cold weather cannot extinguish the rising flame in people's hearts.

In the neighborhood of Dongyuan, it was densely crowded with I don't know how many heads.

Some of these men were the private guards of the "real Augustine" family, the miscellaneous cooks and servants, and some of them were in the midst of the looting of other noble mansions, and the coercion of the men who had been looting and burning them for a night was in a state of fire.

The crazy people, with the weapons they had snatched, followed behind the "Augustine" aristocratic generals, each with a distorted face, and their eyes were crazy and their arms and pockets were stuffed with looted gold coins and jewels.

In the East Garden, the mansions of several nobles were ransacked, and some nobles were hijacked, all of which were concentrated in a mansion belonging to a certain "Augustine" nobleman in the depths of the East Garden.

Fortunately, these guys still thought that after the successful rebellion in the future, they couldn't make too many enemies, so in tonight's operation, although there were arsons and robberies, they also deliberately restrained their subordinates and did not harm the noble families in the robbed noble mansions.

It's just that after killing the red eyes, it is difficult to say how many "accidental injuries" there are.

Dressed in fine samurai armor, Falker carried a cross-slashing sword.

He is the head of the guard of the Grand Duke Nanke Augustine's house, and he is also the front-line commander of all the "rebel army" in Dongyuan after all the "Augustine" uprisings tonight.

Unlike most rabble, Falker came from a professional background. He had served in the South Sea Fleet for a short time, and although he was a sailor, he had also become a mid-level officer - he was also a wing in the army secretly cultivated by the "Augustinians", but under the guard of the royal family, it was difficult for these "Augustinians" to develop any real power in the army.

However, although Falker is only a former middle-level officer of the Empire, his military literacy is already the best among the "righteous army" who raised an incident in Dongyuan tonight.

In terms of blood, his mother was once a distant relative of the "Augustine" family, so he entered the inner circle of these "Augustinians" and knew some plotting plans. And because of his resume, he was also recognized by the Augustinian nobles, including Duzel and the Grand Duke of Nanke, and the uprising in Dongyuan tonight, which gave him the right to command.

So far, Falker thinks he's done a decent job. At least he did a great job of your mission tonight: he succeeded in causing a riot in the East Garden.

Originally, there were less than 800 generals and guards and servants in the family who were put together by a few "Augustinians", but with these more than 800 rabble, Falker successfully commanded them to break the peace of Dongyuan!

The overall plan of action was drawn up by Fawkel. I have to say that the years of training in the navy still taught him some real skills. When it came time to choose the first target, Falker preferred two aristocratic mansions that were known for their caution.

Sure enough, after breaking through the mansions, the two nobles, who had always been cautious and even a little cowardly, quickly gave up resistance, and with the mentality of destroying wealth and eliminating disasters, they let the "thugs" rob, and let Falker successfully coerce a group of servants from the other party's family to join his team.

After letting the people who had been coerced in rob their own masters, these guys simply followed Falker with all their hearts.

Even in the next attack on other noble mansions, these guys, who had no way out, were more active and crazy than Fawker's men!

After successively breaching several noble mansions, the total number of people in Fawker's hands has exceeded 1,000. And because most of the nobles gathered in the imperial capital tonight, there was no backbone in the mansion to organize an effective resistance.

Even the famous Count of Villa, the mansion of Rose, was breached.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Rose rarely lives in the old mansion in the East Garden on weekdays, and most of the time he likes to live in a separate courtyard in the West Garden, and the elite guards in Rose's family are not in the East Garden, and Rose himself is not married, and there is no master in the house.

When the number of his men exceeded 2,000, Falkel gradually realized that he could not effectively control the team.

After all, it was a rabble that had gathered temporarily, and after snatching the red eye, there was soon an incident of adultery.

After Falker broke into the mansion of a viscount, a group of rioters barricaded several young maids in the room, and then these red-eyed fellows rushed into the room. There was a lot of chaos in the mansion, and from time to time there were women's screams and cries, and some thugs simply dragged the caught maid directly into the flowers and trees beside them.

Falker had been in the army for several years and knew that once the situation spread, it would be difficult to get the situation under control. But after all, these guys were not their own soldiers, but a rabble that had been gathered temporarily, and even some of the guards and servants of the "Augustine" family joined the ranks of adultery, and Falkel could not stop this scene by killing several people in one go.

He just gave up. It was only ordered that all the families of the nobles who were caught should be protected together, and as for the poor maids and maids...... He really couldn't take care of it.

The patrols came one after another, attracting all of Fackle's energy.

He could only gather the guards of his most trusted "Augustine" family, and then eliminate the patrols of the vigilante that arrived one by one.

Dead blocked outside the long street of Dongyuan.

Several bloody battles in a row - or massacres - would be more precise. The chaotic command of the patrol team of the police station did not assemble first, but as if adding fuel to the tactic, they arrived one by one. Crushed by the superior forces in Faulkel's hands, he was quickly defeated and scattered.

The patrols that arrived one after another turned into a supply team to deliver ordnance to Falkle.

Because of the strict investigation of the imperial capital, it is difficult for several Augustinian families to accumulate a large number of weapons even if they are careful, and before the incident tonight, only some elite guards have weapons in their hands, and most of the servants who have been mobilized even have kitchen knives in their hands, iron forks used by gardeners, and even weapons such as wooden sticks.

After eliminating a dozen patrols, almost half of the thugs were armed, and although the equipment level was uneven, at least it looked a little good.

After a night of fighting, the patrol was wiped out, and Falker suddenly found himself relaxed.

The police could no longer organize a living force to send him to death, and in the East Garden, Falkel had begun to gather his own men as much as possible.

He knew that the most critical moment was coming!!

Palace!!

Palace!!!!

In tonight's overall plan, Dongyuan is just a bait to attract the patrol of the city's security office, a quagmire!!

After completing the task excellently, according to the plan, at midnight Falkel will lead these "rebel army", the palace of the art of war!!

"Now...... Thor's whip must have been stationed in the palace. ”

Fakker looked at the end of the long street in the distance, which was the direction of the palace, and muttered to himself.

"Let those bastards give me a little restraint! Hurry up and clean up your gear again! See what other weapons you can pick up. Falker took a deep breath, and the cold night wind pierced his chest with a faint pain, but he still quickly shouted: "In a quarter of an hour, we will gather to do great things!!"!

The order was quickly delivered, and although the procession was still in disarray, many of them were busy counting their loot tonight, and some gathered together to reminisce about which lady-in-waiting in the noble mansion had the most taste tonight, and the sound of struggling and screaming was the most exciting・・・・・・

Falker's face was very unpleasant, but ...... He is also helpless against this situation, and with his ability, he can only do this kind of thing.

After dispatching the most elite guards of the Augustinian family around him to give orders, the team finally assembled in a chaotic manner, although it was still slow, and the makeshift line was staggering, but Falkle knew he couldn't ask for more.

Those reinforcements from Thor's Whip, why haven't they come yet... ・・・

Just as Falker was about to pierce it, at last, as if he heard the prayer in his heart...... In the distance of the long street, the sound of horses' hooves was heard!

Experienced people can immediately discern a hidden rhythm in the dense sound of horses' hooves, which is clearly the movement of well-trained elite cavalry.

Falker was shaken!

He immediately jumped onto the roof of a carriage on the side of the street and looked around.

At the end of the long street, a black-pressed cavalry team appeared!

The sabers flashed, and the cavalry swept briskly across the long deserted street, and the horses' hooves mercilessly trampled on the bones and blood that had not yet been washed on the ground.

The black-pressed cavalry rushed through the long street in a matter of moments.

Many thugs saw this scene, which immediately caused panic in the crowd. The arrival of such a large group of well-trained cavalry quickly frightened them.

"What's the panic! It's our own people!!" Falker laughed and jumped out of the carriage, shouting to stop the commotion in the ranks.

Falkel saw very clearly that the large group of cavalry that came was clearly under the banner of Thor's whip!

As one of the principals tonight, Falkel certainly knows that Thor's whip is the main force of the family masters tonight!

"Listen to me! Arrange the line!! It's our own people who come!! everyone line up!! Queue up!! and those who want to get rich and want to be prosperous!! all listen to it! Now follow Lao Tzu to grab bigger and more benefits! Let's go and rob the palace!! tonight is the time to change the sky! Depose the faint king and set up a new emperor! Everyone who goes with him is a great hero of the new emperor's ascension to the throne!!

Falker struggled to move back and forth in the line, ordering the line to line up, and at the same time trying to bewitch him.

Robbery of the Royal Palace!!????

These words made more people's hearts burst into flames again!

The "rebels" who had already killed and robbed their eyes were red, and remembered how much wealth might still be hidden in the palace, and how many beautiful court maids were still in the palace・・・・・・

At the thought of this, many people's eyes turned red.

Anyway, tonight has already given up his life, don't grab a enough book, don't make a fuss enough book, who is willing to do it?!

Besides, the large group of elite cavalry in front of him is still "his own people", so tonight ・・・・・・

Tonight...... It's really going to change!!

The crowd burst into cheers and shouts, and some people roared excitedly.

Fakker had already risen above the crowd and was soon at the forefront of the group.

He wears the best armor and carries a sword in his hand, and there is still blood on his body. At a glance, it really has the posture of a fierce general in the army.

The large group of cavalry that drove soon came to the intersection of this East Garden.

The cavalry slowed down and stopped when they were still a hundred paces away from the ranks.

This move has made more people's hearts settle down. It seems that the leader is right, these cavalrymen are really his own people!!

This...... But Thor's Whip!!!It's the Empire's most elite army!!

Even these empire's most elite armies have taken the lead, what are we afraid of!!Of course, we will work together and reap the benefits together!!

Falkel was also on fire, he looked at the group of Thor's whip cavalry in front of him, and a strong flame of envy and jealousy was born in his heart!

Falker had played in the Imperial ** team for several years, and of course he knew the strength of the ace army that the most elite of the empire had spent a lot of money to build. He also thought that one day he would be able to enter this elite army in the army, and even lead such an army of tigers and wolves, galloping across the battlefield and leaving his name in history.

But because he was born in the "Augustine" family, he was destined to not enter the real elite ranks of the army.

Even in the years of service in the Navy, the family spent a lot of money to get through the relationship and used a pseudonym.

Can you ...... tonight

After tonight, everything is different!!

As long as the new emperor is the new emperor, several masters of the family will become a new generation of imperial bosses, and when the time comes, ...... I will also soar because of tonight's great work!!

The patriarch's promise to himself, as long as it is past tonight, the position of the security of the imperial capital will be his! !

At that time, there will be thousands of real Imperial regular troops under his command!!

Falker's heart was blazing, and with a smile of ecstasy, he strode forward.

The cavalry of Thor's Whip stayed on the opposite side, and the cavalry ranks were neat and solemn.

"I'm Falkel, the leader of the Dongyuan Rebels!!!Captain of the guard under the command of Grand Duke Nanco Augustine!!!" Falkel strode up: "Please come out and speak!!"

In front of this group of tigers and wolves, Falkel tried to straighten his waist, strutted high, and tried his best to make a majestic gesture. Although the crooked and fallen teams behind them are very weak.

But ・・・・・・ past tonight, only after tonight!! Falker comforted himself in his heart.

The front of the cavalry line moved slightly, and the cavalry in the front made way of a passage, and a few horses slowly came out very open, among which was an officer wearing the uniform armor of the Imperial cavalry commander.

The officer's face was full of anger, and Falker saw that there were still unwiped blood stains on the opponent's armor!

The officer sat on his horse, pressed his hand to the hilt of his sword, and slowly rode his horse to a halt at a distance of ten paces from Facker.

"I am the commander of the 2nd Division of Thor's Whip and the 3rd Cavalry Regiment. His voice seemed to have the sonorous smell of metal rubbing: "You are Fakkel, the captain of the guard of the Grand Duke of Southern Science and Technology, and the connector tonight?"

"It's me!" Falkle looked at the shining commander armor on the other party's body, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes, and he raised his head hard, and said loudly: "Our army has completed the set task tonight, cleaned up the East Garden, and annihilated the patrol team of the security station... ・・・”

"Needless to say. Yanke's voice was very cold, and he waved his hand to stop Fawker's words, and he said lightly: "Now that you are standing here, it means that you have finished the affairs of Dongyuan, and you have done a good job." ”

Although the words seemed to be appreciative, but the high-minded taste in it made Falkle instinctively feel unpleasant, he took a deep breath, and then heard the other party's commander named Yank ask in a loud voice: "Now let's make the handover!" Lord Fakkel, I don't need to say much about the next task, may I ask how many people you have in your hands now? I can mix the team as I see fit. ”

Falker didn't think much about it, just pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "My men are all here." Well・・・・・・ there are now 1,800 of them, and I have temporarily organized them into two infantry regiments. Then ......"

He took a few steps closer and whispered, "Many of the noble captives of the East Garden have been gathered by me in the mansion of the Count Maginot inside, and I have sent two teams of men there to protect them. ”

"Hmm. Yank nodded, then suddenly turned his horse's head and slowly returned to his team.

Falker was slightly dazed.

Yank, however, had already entered his cavalry ranks.

There was a hint of banter on this guy's face.

He tilted his head slightly, and said coldly to the two lieutenants beside him: "You have all heard, the ・・・・・・ of the two infantry regiments of 1,800 people are all in front of you." ”

The two adjutants were both cold-faced, and looked coldly at Falker opposite, as well as the staggering group of "rebels" behind him.

"I'll give you a quarter of an hour, and we're done...... Then, let's go to the palace and have dinner tonight!"

Yank yawned slowly.

Falker stood at a distance, not knowing what Yank and his men were saying, he just instinctively sensed something was wrong.

He woke up suddenly!

Since they are friendly troops, why did these Thor's whip cavalry teams still maintain such a dense queue when they came to the front.

If they were talking about mixing, why did they keep a distance of a hundred paces?

And ・・・・・・ the queue of these cavalrymen, the sabers in the hands of the cavalrymen have never been put down...

Just when Facker's heart was getting more and more uneasy.

Suddenly!

A loud horn sounded from among the cavalry!

As soon as Falker heard this clarion call, his face immediately changed wildly!

After being in the army for a long time, how did he not recognize this "Charge?!!

There was a burst of intensive shouting, and the cavalry at the forefront of the team suddenly rushed up!

Iron hooves are like rain, and the saber is shining!!

A hundred paces is enough for a cavalry to complete a short sprint!

Falkel stood in front of him, his heart was blank, watching the cavalry that suddenly started and turned into a torrent of steel, rushing towards him with black pressure, Falkel just instinctively screamed!

"I, we are allies, we are friendly ......"

Falkel's body was quickly swallowed up by the torrent of cavalry! A few scarlet blood flowers may have splashed, but they quickly disappeared......

The surging cavalry torrent, like a wave, rushed into the "rebel" team that was still stunned, and the team that was already staggering collapsed in an instant as if it were like paper・・・・・・

Crying, swearing, yelling, screaming...... Blood, severed limbs・・・・・・

“...... When will your people do it?"

As if nothing had happened, the emperor gently asked Shiloh such a sentence.

This sentence, like a array, stabbed into Duzel's heart!

The leader of this "real Augustine" suddenly panicked, he subconsciously turned his head, looked at Shiloh behind him, and smiled reluctantly: "Your Highness, do you see if he is ...... Isn't it crazy?haha...... Until now, are you still playing this kind of sowing discord with us? hahahahahaha......"

Dry laughter, with reluctance, with panic.

Shiloh sighed softly.

He slowly stepped forward and looked up at the emperor who was high above.

As if silent for a while, Shiloh smiled lightly: "... ・・・It's really my brother, and it's my old enemy who has been calculating for ten years!"

As he spoke, he suddenly moved his hands!

The longbow in his hand, the bowstring didn't know when, it was actually put around Duzel's neck!

With a slight flick of Shiloh's fingers, the bowstring clicked・・・・・・

Airplanes!!

Duzel had already reached the end of his mouth with an exclamation, but it stopped abruptly! His eyes were already bulging, and he stared at Shiloh with a face full of incredulity!

"I'm sorry for taking advantage of you・・・・・・ people. Shiloh smiled lightly, and then sighed softly: "Thank you, for letting my brother's assassination be suspicious of you, and helping me distract a lot." Thank you also for holding back the army at the police station tonight and helping me buy me enough time to control the army. But now...... I'm sorry, but that's the end of your value. ”

As he spoke, the bowstring flicked again.

Duzel's body fell down so straight!!

On the neck, a thin red line appeared, and then it turned into a sharp incision! Blood gushed out wildly, even staining Shiloh's boots red!!

In the main hall, the group of "Augustinians" immediately screamed and roared as if they were crazy.

However, they were soon rushed by a group of Thor's Whip soldiers beside Shiloh, including Archduke Nanko Augustine, and their swords were slashed... ・・・

Panin was at the forefront, he stabbed his sword into the heart of the Grand Duke of Southern Science and Technology, and then gently harvested the life of the gray-haired duke.

The sounds of fighting and screaming, Shiloh didn't seem to hear.

He just stood there quietly, standing beside Duzel's corpse at his feet, and then slowly put away his longbow, gently wiping the last drop of blood from the bowstring.

"Do you want me to do it? brother...... Now is the time. Shiloh looked up and looked at the Emperor with a smile.

The emperor frowned slightly, and then sighed lightly: "You are really ruthless enough, either you don't do it, or you don't do it!" But ・・・・・・ Xiluo, kill them, aren't you afraid that it will be difficult to end up afterwards?"

"It's not that hard. Shiloh laughed, his smile was still so elegant, so relaxed, but when he said it, it was chilling!

"Tonight, it's nothing more than two results! You and me, only one can see tomorrow's sunrise. My dear brother, if you win, these 'Augustinians, loyal servants of the Empire, died at the hands of a traitor like me, in order to protect them. If it's me who wins, then ...... In the history books, they are my allies, and they died at the hands of you, a tyrannical and faint king, in order to help me do something. ”

When the emperor heard this, he groaned slightly, and then understood the meaning, and couldn't help nodding.

"Yes, there is really nothing missing in your calculations, and this arrangement ・・・・・・ the best. (To be continued)
