To Aaron Landis, these old nobles of Canal were like clowns.
To describe the two words that the veteran Kareni with a corner of his eye floated, it was trash.
The so-called military veteran under the command of the Canal nobles is simply disdainful, that is, a group of rabble who can oppress the civilians.
Even if the equipment of Kanal's army is more luxurious and sharper, this kind of army without a bit of blood on its body is a pile of waste in the eyes of veterans.
Infighting, intrigue and intrigue are the forte of these old nobles.
These guys are like cockroaches crawling around in the gutter. It's hard to get out when you hide in the shadows, but if you jump out, you can easily slap them to death.
Therefore, when these old nobles felt that they had all jumped out to show their might when the time was right, the moment King Garlan appeared, all of these Canal nobles wilted in an instant.
Looking at the mighty and majestic Aaron Landis cavalry behind King Garland, who could not see the end, they finally remembered that even the terrifying Gasdadians were defeated and driven out by these cavalry.
They didn't even have the courage to fight against them, and they all knelt down and surrendered.
With just a little interrogation and torture, these nobles who were pampered and could not endure any hardships confessed to the remnants of the Gasdadians who colluded with them and those nobles who wanted to murder King Gallan by Aaron Landis.
Since then, most of the old anti-Gallan aristocratic forces in the country of Karnar have been destroyed.
In the past, Kareni was quite concerned about the group of Kanal nobles and city owners who opposed King Garland, worried that moving them would arouse the disgust of the Kanal people.
Now that there is evidence that those guys murdered King Garlan, he naturally doesn't need to be polite anymore.
After that, he ruthlessly cleaned up the remaining Gasdard remnants, and completely cut off the Gasdard's influence in Canal.
After killing the group of Canal nobles who murdered him and completely resolving the Canal matter, Garlan met with a group of Canal nobles who had honestly surrendered to him and appeased them who were frightened.
Afterwards, he arranged a large number of young officials and priests brought by himself in the royal city of Karnar, and took over all the rights.
In the city where the old regime had been completely destroyed, he began to try his new regime of pseudo-separation of powers.
After all, it is he who has the final say in the King City of Kanal now, and this is the best opportunity to experiment with the new regime.
After all this was done, Garland kept the old and prudent Kareni here to sit, and the Sixth Army would be stationed in Karnal for a long time in the future.
He then set off for Aaron Landis.
…
Until Gallan completely left Canal and returned to the territory of Aaronlandis, no one knew the news of Heimos' return.
Immediately afterwards, after the army guarding Garlan back and forth from Canal entered the territory of Aaron Landis, the direction of the army suddenly turned, and it went in the direction completely opposite to the royal city.
In the middle of the night, the army camped on a gently sloping hill, and the gurgling water circled the hill and left a lake below, and then flowed into the distance.
In the center of the army camp, located at the highest point of the hill and surrounded by groups, the lights in the largest camp were still on.
In the tent, Garlan, who had changed into loose pajamas, was lying on the bed, resting his chin with one hand, and flipping through the parchment in front of him with the other.
It was a military newspaper from the north.
As he looked at it, a calf behind him was raised, and it was gently circling in the air, as if playing.
When Heimos, who had finished bathing in the lake, returned to the camp, what he saw was the boy's childlike appearance.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
He threw the white towel on his head to the side at will, revealing his messy hair. The black hair that had just been wiped was still a little damp. , reflecting a little water light.
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Heimos looked at Garlan lying on his stomach with a doting gaze.
He whispered, "What are you looking at?"
In Canal, Huymos did not show up.
To deal with these guys with the 'black knight of hell' is too much to look up to them.
At that time, Garlan said to Heimos with a smile.
Then, he handed over the settlement of the old nobles of Kanal to Suojia to deal with.
Looking at what Gallan meant, it seemed that he did not intend to announce the news of his return.
Although Heimos didn't know what Gallan was thinking, he had always been indulgent towards Gallan and did not ask any further questions, he just followed Gallan's wishes.
So, during this period of time, everyone discovered that King Garlan suddenly had a tall guard who was always with him.
This guard always wears a helmet in front of people, and most of his face is blocked, making it difficult to see.
But it's just a small guard, and no one cares.
But at this moment, the black-haired 'guard' sitting beside the king's bed leaned down, put one hand on the king's shoulder in a rebellious manner, and even more casually lowered his head to look at the confidential military report placed in front of the king's eyes.
As for this 'guard''s presumptuous behavior, the young king seems to have become accustomed to it.
Garlan turned his head to the side, still holding his side cheeks with one hand, and his long golden hair was scattered on the bed beside his arms like a waterfall.
He looked at Heimos and said, "Before returning to the royal city, are you interested in taking a stroll elsewhere?"
The snow-white bare feet swayed in the air again.
When the marching direction of the army changed, Heimos vaguely guessed what Gallan wanted to do.
Seeing the young man smiling at this moment, he smiled too.
He lowered his head and kissed Garlan's forehead.
He said, "Wherever you go, I will follow."
The bright golden eyes blinked for a moment, and they curved up into the arc of a crescent moon in the night sky at this moment.
"Even hell?"
The young man looked at him sideways with his chin up, and asked with a smile.
"Even in hell."
Looking at Garlan, his eyes were like water, Heimos replied.
Not a second of hesitation.
…
No matter where you are, I will follow you.
Even hell.
…
…
Aaron Landis Northland.
The fire of war had been ignited here half a month ago. Taking advantage of the great opportunity that Aaron Landis sent some of his troops to Kanal, and the black knight died in the King City of Kanal, he was quiet for two years. The said people impatiently went south and invaded the north.
The North has always been guarded by the 2nd and 5th legions, commanded by the cavalry commander Hea.
These two legions that have been stationed in the north all the year round, even if the Gasdadian soldiers were under the king's city, they were firmly guarded here, and they did not let the Geshu people who took advantage of the fire to step into Aaron Landis.
If it is an ordinary invasion, the northern legion is enough to resist.
But this time it was the Geshu invasion after two years. The army was much larger than before. The serious lack of domestic materials made them extremely urgent and fierce in this invasion.
Therefore, King Garland dispatched the First Army of the Central Army, commanded by the knight of the scorching sun, Kaihos, to support him in the north.
Afterwards, the two sides fought for more than half a month, and you came and went.
Although the Aaron Landis army generally had the upper hand and controlled the battlefield, the Geshus obviously had no intention of giving up.
They attacked with increasing ferocity, as if they were going to fight the Aaron Landis.
As a result, the northern battlefield fell into a state of confrontation.
In such a battle situation, a cavalry unit suddenly rushed to the northern battlefield.
When this cavalry unit arrived on the battlefield, it happened to be at a moment when the two sides were fighting fiercely in the afternoon.
Caijos is leading the army and the Geshu army is fighting on the frontal battlefield.
As soon as the cavalry, apparently belonging to Aaron Landis, approached, Geshu scouts spotted it.
However, since there were only two or three thousand cavalry troops in total, the Geshu did not pay much attention to it, and only sent a reserve cavalry force of about five thousand to intercept it.
With the rumbling of hooves, General Geshu, who led 5,000 cavalry, soon faced the Aaron Landis cavalry with less than 3,000 people.
General Gaishu looked at the enemy army whose troops were nearly half less than his own, sneered, and then waved his hand.
The cavalry army of Geshu rushed directly towards the Aaron Landis like a flood.
General Gaishu believed that he could directly crush the opponent with the superiority of his troops.
However, just as the General Geshu led the cavalry army aggressively rushed over.
The Aaron Landis cavalry on the opposite side also unceremoniously launched a frontal attack on them.
The two cavalry units were galloping across the plain, and they were about to collide violently—
At this moment, all of a sudden, General Gaishu suddenly widened his eyes, showing a look of astonishment, and there was a hint of fear in that astonishment.
Not only him, but the Geshu cavalry who charged behind him also showed the same look of shock and fear.
I saw that before the army of Aaron Landis cavalry, the knight in black armor took the lead, rushing to the forefront.
The familiar figure that was like a demon in the hearts of the Geshu people and could stop children from crying once again appeared in front of them, making their hearts tremble suddenly.
what happened
Doesn't it mean that this terrible devil is dead
Why is he here? !
Staring at the black-armored knight who completely imprinted the horror in Geshu's memory, General Geshu's mind was already a mess at the moment.
fake.
Must be fake!
General Gaishu told himself so repeatedly in his heart that he forcibly suppressed the fear of seeing that figure.
That's right, the black knight is dead.
Been dead for over three months.
The person in front of him was just wearing black armor to confuse them!
However, the next moment, as he passed the black knight on horseback, the head flying off his shoulders clearly answered his question about whether the black knight was real or not.
Although this answer is completely irrelevant to him who was killed in an instant.
Under the leadership of the Black Knight, Aaron Landis' cavalry ripped apart the Geshu cavalry twice his size like sharp arrows.
After a lapse of more than two years, the Geshu people once again experienced and felt the power and terror of the knight in black armor.
The Geshu's cavalry units were defeated and fled.
The defeated army fled to the main army.
Then, the lower-ranking general who had fled back reported the news of the sudden appearance of the black knight to General Geshu in horror.
Commander Gaishu was stunned.
Black Knight Heimos appeared
how is this possible
Isn't he dead? It's been three months since he died.
Why would someone who was supposed to die suddenly appear on the battlefield
Suddenly, Commander Gaishu became suspicious.
Could it be... the Black Knight is playing dead
He remembered the fact that the Geshu army was lured into the northern fortress by Heimos two years ago and then defeated in one fell swoop. He also remembered the news that came not long ago, King Garlan pretended to be dying in the king city of Karnar and then took Karna The things that the old power aristocrats caught all at once.
Aaron Landis are cunning, he thought.
Whether it is the black knight or the king of Gallan, they are all sinister and cunning guys!
What was the idea behind that King Garland sending both the Sun Knight and the Black Knight to the North
Even let the black knight pretend to be dead on purpose...
There must be a conspiracy!
Definitely a big conspiracy!
Suspicion couldn't be suppressed at the same time, and Commander Geshu, who believed that what the Aaron Landis did was definitely a conspiracy, waved his hand and gave an order.
"All retreat!!!"
So, the moment Heimos appeared on the battlefield, the Geshus receded as quickly as the ebb tide.
The Geshus retreated so quickly that the Aaron Landis were bewildered.
They stared blankly at the enemy retreating quickly as if they were afraid of something, and then subconsciously looked at the black figure that suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of Aaron Landis gave a huge cheer.
They call the name of the black knight.
They called the name of Heimos.
Their cheers reverberated between heaven and earth and on the battlefield.
'On the battlefield, Heimos suddenly appeared, and he alone stunned the entire Geshu army. '
History has recorded such an incredible scene with this sentence.
This matter pushed the name of the black knight Heimos to the top, and since then completely overwhelmed the name of the knight of the scorching sun.
In later generations, people also debated endlessly because of this.
Some people think that this is a historical fact, and some people think that this is something fabricated in the Romance of Unofficial History in order to highlight the power of Heimos.
After arguing for many years, it has not been able to reach a conclusion.
…
In fact, when the Geshu army retreated quickly, the reaction of everyone on the battlefield at that time was...
Commander Geshu: Fortunately, I retreated fast, or else I would be caught in the tricks of the vile Aaron Landis!
And Aaron Landis here...
Kaihos: ? ?
Heimos: ? ? ?
Garland: …
Although from the beginning, it was the idea of closing the door and letting go... Wolf, an idea to intimidate Geshuren.
But the effect seems to be too good.
