559 North-South Controversy
The days in Chūn in Hutu Beien are undoubtedly very warm, this city surrounded by mountains, there is no biting cold wind, no ice and snow cover,
Under the steaming mist of countless hot springs,
The whole city looks hazy, with mist drifting and rainbows across, like a fairyland.
The skygazing platform on the top of the mountain is faintly spreading out of the pointed roof in this dreamlike mist and rainbow.
Round statues, white marble steles, wide and straight streets, and white paths paved with cobblestone hearts,
No matter who looks at it, it is definitely an old, quiet, beautiful and warm city.
Early in the morning, the carriage of the Duke of Fenlang of Salander departed from his house. The carriage moved at a constant speed on the street, and the Duke of Fenlang, who was sitting in the carriage, kept exhaling white air,
He was the lord of the Reid region south of Salander, and because of the Normandian attack, he was forced to abandon his territory and flee to Kyoto for refuge, this time as one of the lieutenants of the northern consulate appointed by Kyoto, and was assigned to serve in the northern territory.
The beautiful scenery in front of him made his eyes flash with an inexplicable feeling.
This year's Hutu Bean was particularly cold, and he needed to keep rubbing his hands and feet to keep them warm, so as not to inadvertently freeze them.
A cold wind blew, but that didn't stop him from imagining,
It's like your own Raid Mountain, and at this moment, it should be a wild mountain
Duke Fenlang sighed and couldn't help but tighten the leather coat on his body, but he couldn't help but shiver.
The streets are deserted and there are no pedestrians in sight, and many of the upper bunks are closed, with big words such as "closed" written on them.
Apparently the master was ready to roll up and leave Hutu Beien.
Now everyone knows that the economic center of the north is the newly rising Heckling Territory,
I heard that it has become the largest trading port in the north, and more than 100 ships come and go every day.
Just thinking about it makes people feel pounding, and such a piece of féi land flowing with gold is in the hands of a little lord named Heck,
I don't know how much benefit those northern lords have received from this guy, and they are willing to give him their fleet jiāo for unified management,
This is something that cannot be tolerated in any way,
This is a big gold mine, how can it be mastered by these humble guys, but it is said that there are some shadows of Kyoto adults behind this matter, but so what?
Can there still be a strong background from Lord Jhardo?
It was the Commander-in-Chief of the North, whom His Majesty had the right to oversee all the affairs of the North, and to fight against the Normans.
He was accompanied by 2,000 brave and warlike Mamunuk knights, as well as the full authority of His Majesty King Ragra, who could dispose of any opponent at will, as long as he needed.
Don't say that the governor of the north of the huā shelf, when he saw this text, his face turned pale with fright,
Even those little northern lords who were still screaming didn't dare to take a breath in front of Lord Jhardo.
If you have to count some resistance, probably only the NV man named Laiya refused to handle the official document issued by the Consulate General under the pretext of illness
But it would be a fool's dream to fight against the iron hooves of the Mamunouk Legion led by Lord Jehark with just a small Heck leader.
Master Jehark didn't touch her, it was entirely for her dead father's sake, but it certainly wouldn't be for long.
At this moment, the Duke of Fenlang suddenly caught a glimpse of an extremely simple carriage, turning out of the alley on his side,
The coachman wrapped his face in a veil, and he couldn't see the mō appearance clearly, but he had a graceful figure, and it could be seen that he was an NV person.
The carriage mén did not have any family coat of arms on it, only a mark of white sè starlight,
It was the carriage of the Starry Sky Temple, Duke Fenlang was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and through the thin sand of the carriage, he could vaguely see that there was an NV person sitting inside,
"Why did she arrive early?"
The graceful and elegant starlight-like back made Duke Fenlang's gaze fixed, his long hair was like a waterfall, and his elegant clothes made the city chūnsè also lose his sè
Duke Fenlang's god sè paused, lù out of a hint of unexpected joy, I had heard that she was coming, but I didn't expect to come,
She was referring to the kingdom's starry sky festival that presided over the Winter Veil Festival,
This is a hidden trump card, and it is said that the one with the toughest attitude now is Miss Nilai, who is in charge of the affairs of Heck's territory.
And this young lady who holds great power is the favorite NV disciple of the starry sky sacrifice, as long as she comes forward, no matter how that Nilai is sick, I am afraid that she will inevitably come to see the teacher in person, and it will not be a problem at that time.
As we approached the center of the city, there were occasional people passing by on the streets, walking briskly and silently with their heads shrunk, their whole bodies shivering in the cold wind.
Only a small squad of Mamunuk's cavalry appeared from time to time. Dressed in bright armor full of accessories and carrying a shiny sword, he looked at everyone in the street with hostile eyes, as if they were all Norman jiān.
Duke Fenlang saw the simple carriage and slowly stopped in front,
There, a squad of Salander guards escorted a dozen teenagers who were only about thirteen or fourteen years old.
The boys all hung their heads, and some of them were still crying in a low voice, unwilling to move their feet, no matter how beaten the city guard soldiers were.
"Hell, how did she get into something like this"
Duke Fenlang cursed secretly, and hurriedly ordered to stop,
It's a pity that it's too late, who doesn't know that the contemporary starry sky festival is not only the most beautiful in the kingdom of Kyoto, but also a pacifist
Sure enough, he heard a faint and crisp NV voice from the carriage in front of him and asked
"What's going on, what crime did they commit?"
The officer of the city guard who took the lead clearly recognized the mark of the Starry Sky Temple on the carriage. After hesitating for a while, he replied and made it clear what happened.
It turned out that these teenagers were all searched for from their homes in the city. They had to be sent to serve in the army in Kyoto, because they refused to serve in the military and hid in Tibet, so they were tied up with ropes.
With the successive defeats at the front, the soldiers in Kyoto were not enough,
To this end, the new Governor General of the North, Lord Gehardo, ordered that all men in the Northern Territory be between the ages of 12 and 50. are required to serve in the military,
These teenagers happen to be thirteen years old, although their parents have proved that they are not yet thirteen years old.
But the Commander-in-Chief did not hesitate to order them to be taken back to the barracks.
The Duke of Fenlang was certainly aware of this decree.
In fact, it was the Duke of Fenlang who proposed this method, which had already been implemented in Kyoto, otherwise Kyoto would not have withstood the repeated attacks of the Normans.
"How can the Commander-in-Chief be like this, these are still children"
An NV man wearing a plain sè light yellow sè long skirt slowly came out of the carriage,
Seeing the seven-star robe inlaid on this NV person, all the Salander soldiers hurriedly knelt down,
This is a beautiful NV that is enough to make any man unforgettable,
The slender melon seed face, a slightly pointed chin, and a straight nose bridge show her strong and unyielding xìng character.
The long black and silky hair is draped over the shoulders, shining with an enviable sheen,
The faint moth eyebrows, a bit like the shape of a crescent moon, are gently picked up on both sides, like a small butterfly about to fly, and below the moth eyebrows, are the deep eyes of light blue sè,
Her appearance, like a crescent moon climbing into the night sky, has an indescribable euphemistic temperament
She looked sympathetically at the still very childish teenagers, sighed helplessly, and got back into the carriage.
Although she is the highest level of starry sky sacrifice in the kingdom, she does not have the power of the military hand.
Thinking of these naïve teenagers who may not know what the real war is like, in the near future, they will have to accept the beckoning of death,
Her heart couldn't help but feel a pound of tenderness
This is true in Kyoto, and even more so in other places, where perhaps boys as young as eleven or twelve years old will be forcibly conscripted to fill the vacancies in the army.
As the war became more and more intense, more and more soldiers were replenished in the rear, and there was even a strange phenomenon that the number of troops was several times more than before the defeat.
However, who would believe that these forcibly captured teenagers can play a role on the battlefield?
What else can they do but resist the Norman butcher's knife with their thin ròu body?
Perhaps, only the end of the war is the real way out for the Kingdom of Salander.
