When they arrived at Galoster, they happened to run into Arthas and the Templars, who had also just arrived.

Cameron, the resident paladin, seemed to have a good relationship with Arthas, and personally came out to welcome him in, but his attitude towards Philip was not as contemptuous and rude as Arthas, and certainly not very enthusiastic.

Philip didn't care, in fact he was already sensitively aware of something after hearing about yesterday's horrific riots, which could be called a military coup.

Obviously, there is someone close to him who should know a lot about the secrets.

That night, unable to stand the deep and mournful blue eyes of the lover, the imperial princess Sophia shook off what she knew in his arms, most of which matched the speculation in Philip's heart.

However, this also made someone who was full of vanity suddenly feel that he had the potential to be a little white-faced.

Claude was born in the Southeast, and his father was only a lowly baronial lord.

Legendary, despite his current Mediterranean-like hairstyle, which is full of vicissitudes, like a depressed greasy uncle, Claude was handsome and charming when he was young, and he was also one of the most influential figures in the imperial capital at that time.

Graduated from the Royal Academy, won the Kent Cup, published more than a dozen academic papers in major academic magazines, caused a sensation, and rejected the solicitation of the Ministry of Defense with excellent results, and stayed in school to become a star teacher.

At a young age, he married his wife, who was also a teacher but was from a noble background, and it seemed that he was marrying Bai Fumei and walking on the rhythm of the peak of life.

But ten years ago, he chose to return to his hometown due to changes in his family, and inherited the title after his father's death.

At this time, he made a bold decision, that is, to divorce his wife, just because he did not want his wife, who was seriously ill, to leave the imperial capital with a warmer and humid climate, and follow him to the cold land in the southeast.

What is rare is that his wife did not force her husband to come over and make her husband feel guilty, nor did she have the slightest resentment, not only did the two not remarry and remarry, but got along like confidantes.

As for a divorce agreement, it is just a formality, in order to make two people who are thousands of miles away feel that they don't owe each other.

In just ten years, he was promoted from a lowly baron to a viscount, which shows how amazing his talent is, and the only deficiency may be a common problem in the outback, which is the lack of a lot of practical experience.

Philip didn't know when Sophia had been in contact with Claude, and it didn't matter how much of the closeness in her words and actions was deliberate and how much of it was sincere.

He also had no reason to blame the other party for his indifference in the early stage, because Claude's kindness had nothing to do with the southeast border city, and was completely a foreshadowing planted by Sophia here.

And Sophia has done everything, even at the expense of exposing most of her hole cards, just to rush thousands of miles to help, what face does he have to complain.

As for the 1,000 elite soldiers who were ambushed in the middle of the road, all of them were dead soldiers from Ferretti City who were brought to Vila Di City by Michael.

They were all from Ferretti City, where their ancestors had lived for generations, and the tragedy not only caused them to lose all their loved ones, but also everything they had in the first half of their lives.

Even if he is alive, he has become a lonely ghost wandering in this world, and he is in pain.

So they were full of hatred, and revenge became their only belief for the rest of their lives.

Sophia knew this because these people were secretly arranged under Claude's secret warehouse, but unfortunately they were discovered by the cunning old Perry, and they did not do their best.

As for what happened later, who shot that precise and ruthless arrow to ambush Duke Stanton, who controlled the direction of these rebellion in the chaos of the army, who was the person who played an important role in the critical moment, or whether he was just pure speculation, Sophia didn't know, because Count Brad didn't say it to her, but only hinted at it slightly.

However, Sophia knew very well that all this must have a close relationship with the three border military cities, and in her interests, this young girl who aspired to become a generation of empresses wisely chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and received the task of clearing the remnants of the grassland.

Just so that when everything was settled and the southeast capital became a group of dragons without a leader, she led the army to rush here to gather people's hearts and preside over the overall situation.

This is also the name of the three major military cities, and the old guys, including the Lamande family and the Snape family, willingly handed over to her, which is not only a gift and a handle, but also a faint warning.

This empire is nominally royal, but even if it has broken away from the primitive aristocratic feudal system, this vast land is also the property of these nobles and the 20 million people in the southeast.

In this way, they are telling the only girl in the living royal family who they approve of what kind of people live on the southeastern border.

They are kind, brave, united, but rude, arrogant, and reciprocated.

Both the Levinsons and the Stantons realized at the last minute that someone was secretly stirring up trouble and sowing discord between them.

But they had lived in this prosperous and decaying city for too long, and money and interests had blinded them, but they did not think that this was just a revenge from the three major military cities.

There is not too much conspiracy, no complicated collusion of interests, just naked revenge, simple, ruthless and deadly revenge.

There have been too many tragedies, too much hatred on that border, and at this moment there are so many people who want the whole of Galoste to be destroyed, and who want the people here to taste the taste of death and chaos, so many that it is difficult to count.

Different from the attitude towards the imperial capital, this kind of betrayal from the side made them particularly resentful.

Sorting out the whole incident from front to back, Philip smiled bitterly, grandfather, their means of revenge were crude, but they were very direct and deadly, just like the Ward people in this land.

Whether it's the trip to the imperial capital two years ago or the revenge in front of them, the Ward people seem to be more accustomed to solving problems with force, replacing intrigue and subterfuge with straightforward killings that do not stand up to scrutiny.

If compared with the experience of his previous life, I am afraid that many of the self-proclaimed sinister and cunning politicians and aristocrats here are as pure and lovely as the little white rabbit, just like the Yankees described, the heads of the Ward people are filled with muscles, and they can't tolerate those ravines and ravines at all.

Just like those steppe people, they obviously have a huge population base and terrifying centralized control, but their commanders only know how to use crowd tactics in most cases, and they can't see subtle cooperation at all.

Each race in this world has its own deep-rooted disposition, reaching extremes in one aspect while ignoring shortcomings in others.

Just like the city in front of you, when the portal of the steppe people is completely closed, the fate of the largest city in the southeast and the people inside has long been sealed, but the time is different and the way is different.

In this struggle, neither the steppe people, nor the three major military cities, nor Galost, were the victors, and the only victors were the temples.

If it weren't for the 20,000 Templar Knights led by the Holy Knights and the four paladins, the entire southeast would have ushered in a catastrophe.

In this sense, after this incident, the influence of the Southern Temple, not only in the southeastern provinces, but also in the entire Wardsmann Empire, was a whole lot higher than before, and the sacrifice of two thousand Templars was extremely heavy.

This is not the final end, the 10,000 Templars of the Southern Temple and the 5,000 Templars from the Imperial Capital General Shrine will regroup in Viladi City, from where they will go deep into the grassland for a three-month retaliatory operation. and continue until next spring.

It is believed that after this round of sweeping, I don't know how many tribes in the prairie will not survive the end of the long winter.

This was told to him by Caesar, who was also one of the three paladins who led the team.

Philippe had only one feeling about it, and that was why not Alsace, so that at least he wouldn't have to face that hostile and contemptuous face when he started next year.

The arrival of Princess Sophia has regained the backbone of the chaotic and frightened city of Galost, whether it is those nobles or commoners who have suffered heavy losses, the name of the angelic, kind and brave Imperial Princess Sophia once again resounded in the southeast of the empire.

With the help of the two main divisions, the chaotic order was immediately restored to calm like ice and snow melting.

Even if the princess didn't speak, just frowned slightly, or said a word inadvertently, there would be a large number of material resources in place.

The nobles who survived unappetisingly waved the checks in their hands and opened their respective families' treasury, just so that the GIs who had given them a nightmarish experience could calm their anger and make a deep good impression on their own family in front of the imperial princess.

After all, after this chaos, not to mention the top two positions, there are too many vacant fat shortages, and everyone wants to take advantage of the chaos to take a bite.

And those nobles who were already deeply involved in the camp of the two major families, but were not so core, were even more riveted to meet any requirements of the imperial princess, hoping that they could avoid the most ruthless knife when they liquidated in the near future.

Although that money is important, it is not as important as one's own life, and if there is no money to earn, what is the use of asking for so much money without life and power.

As for stubborn resistance and intrigues, yes, but first ask the GIs if they agree.

For ten days, Philip stayed by Sophia's side, accompanying her everywhere, and then attending one banquet after another, meeting wave after wave of people.

Philip swore that he had never seen so many nobles, heard so many elegant and yet flattering words, even by his birth and knowledge.
