As early as the harvest month, the villages and manors from the north of Buchi to the Golan-Elsen Passage were notified that the black rose on the opposite side of Bromanto might be about to move. Stationed here is the White Winged Cavalry Regiment of the Van Meer Regiment under Braggs. The deputy commander Walter has already received news from the princess, warning of possible war and organization of evacuation work, but this work is carried out in name only. The residents of, especially the peasants, have difficulty giving up their most precious wealth. The nobles are unwilling to drive their farmhands to the north to let the land go unused. The key is that in the last period before the autumn harvest, there are still heavy ears of wheat hanging in the fields. , If there is no hope for the harvest of one year of fleeing at this time, maybe it will be affected in the coming year. Almost everyone was lucky enough to stay, with the exception of a few handicraftsmen.
But to the north of Buchi, these orders were well implemented. Residents still remember the war of the last year and their deep fears are still in their bones. However, most of the refugees at the time were originally gathered there. Near Braggs, the panic caused by the war brought more refugees, who almost overwhelmed this southern border city. In order to ensure the supply of the army, the city lord Baron Rockville had to reduce the food rations of the refugees outside the city, and a feeling of resentment has filled the crowd.
Earlier in September, a letter was handed to Princess Griffin through Freya's hand:
'His Royal Highness, Madara may have completed a substantial unity today. The composition of the army has changed greatly from that in the Black Rose War. To the west of the Sea of Dead Moon, a large number of corpse lords have already turned to the immortal The Supreme One swears allegiance, so there may be more than common sense in Madara’s army, so please be careful. '
When Griffith saw this letter, she was studying the history of Vaughan at Ms. Wei Shasi. She was shocked when she saw this letter. She raised her head and smiled apologetically to her teacher, Ms. Wei Shasi. She has always served the royal family. She is the kind of aristocratic woman who is very well informed. She is keenly aware of what is happening, smiles and nods to the princess, puts away the teaching aids and walks out. Griffith hurriedly picked up the letter and found Overwell. Sir Wolf looked a little puzzled after reading the letter. It is not easy to insert the informant in Madara. The royal party has spent a lot of energy in the past year. Insert|Into a few very peripheral eyeliners, but the news from those people is that everything is normal, how can this Earl Tonigel understand so clearly? He flicked the corner of the letter paper, and pondered for a moment: "His Royal Highness, can you confirm the origin of this letter?"
"This letter was handed to me by Freya. There should be no problem." Griffith blushed and was ashamed to say that it was secretly remembered on the letterhead that only she and Brando knew, because she had nothing to do with it. I told him, and worried that Overwell would feel that she didn't trust him enough because of this. But the look on Overwell's face was nothing unusual. He shook his head and said, "This is a bit weird. Where did the Lord Earl get the news?"
"But Overwell, I don't think Earl Tonigel has any need to deceive us on this matter." Griffith frowned and argued for reason. Overwell took a look at his nominal student with a little surprise. Earlier, he heard rumors that she and the Earl Tonigel had a grudge. He didn’t expect to reconcile so quickly, but that’s fine. Before Brando became famous, he had been in contact with each other for a long time, and he always felt that this person was not as rumored to have such a strong desire for power. Although time will change everything, some deep-rooted natures are difficult to remove. Moreover, Eruin needs stability now. If the princess is eager to compete for fame and gain, I am afraid it is not a good thing.
Fortunately, the princess knew it in general. Overwell nodded, but immediately shook his head and said: "The letter says that Madara may have completed substantial reunification today. If this is true, this letter is too important, but my servant Some doubts are whether Madara can complete such a major transformation in a mere one and a half years. It is necessary to know that although Eruin has just experienced a war, it is the same for Madara. Dara is a huge country, with more entangled interests, and it takes longer to digest the benefits of the war. Count Tonigel once asserted that this war was a provocation initiated by the blood rod Juge privately, and his ministers agreed very much. This kind of thing has happened many times in Eruin’s history, not only in Madara. Occasionally, the lord on the border of Eruin will privately enter the territory of Madara to plunder."
He smiled bitterly, and didn't tell Griffith that in his early years, there were more cases like this. The blood rod invaded Karasu that year was revenge against the lord of the Golden City. It is a kingdom with complete sovereignty, and there has never been a tradition in history where the weaker party frequently invades the stronger party. But since before and after the Black Rose War, this situation has gradually reversed. In fact, most people of insight in the kingdom can clearly realize that the black Bromantra rose may be in full bloom, but if you want to say Mada No one would believe that Ra quickly completed unification and was about to start another all-out war.
But if Brando were here, he would tell him that the nature of the war was very special. To put it bluntly, it was that the supreme of Madara and the king of the banshee, Alvette, combined to act in a play that tricked the blood stick into death. On the face of it, Madara is still divided, but as he said, the unity has been essentially completed. This war is the last battle of the Supreme One to eliminate the aliens. Now within the realm of Madara, everything Resources and strength are united, preparing for the next battle for the revival of this dark kingdom. And today’s blood rod, under the connivance of the overt and secret, the army has been the first to complete the change. It will be the first "New Madara" army encountered by the Eruin Kingdom. In the history of Golan -Duke Elson suffered a big loss.
It is a pity that Brando is not here, unable to explain this, and can only hope that Princess Griffin and Overwell can pay enough attention to his opinions.
Griffin had heard Overwell’s words, but still couldn’t make up his mind. This time she was facing an almost unknown opponent. Before the Black Rose War, Madara was a borderline trouble, a sibling Scabies, and the pressing of the local nobles, is the gangrene on the chest and back. In fact, this still represents the thoughts of most nobles until now. If it were not for the purpose of solving the troubles of Jean Dnell, this autumn war would still be just another provocation for Eruin, Griffith. Because although vaguely realized that the rise of Madara may be a threat to this ancient kingdom, there is no way to get to know each other in such an environment.
She pondered for a moment before repliing: "Although this judgment is logical, it is too arbitrary. I believe Lord Earl will not aimlessly."
"I'm not suspicious of Lord Earl." Overwell couldn't help but smile again. It seemed that this student didn't generally believe in the Earl Tonigel. He suddenly realized that it might have been Amperthel's battle against the princess. She was deeply impressed and made her trust Brando's military talents blindly, but in fact, he and even Earl Oeting knew that the military talents of the other party could only be said to be average, but her judgment on the development of things was exceptionally good. . He thought for a moment, probably because he had described Brando's battle experience as too romantic when he was talking to her. He originally wanted to impress the princess out of appreciation. , After all, that Tonigel is indeed a rare talent, and he is more loyal to the kingdom and ideals. He appreciates this young generation more than those of Macaro and Li Woods, but at this moment Oufu Weir still shook his head. It seemed necessary to remind the princess so as not to make her have unrealistic thoughts, which was not a good thing for Brando and her.
He considered it for a moment before adding: "I'm just worried that Earl Tonigel has been misled by intelligence."
"You mean Brando... Earl Tonigel, the information he got may be distorted, or even a trap?" Griffin responded and frowned and asked.
Overwell nodded.
Half an hour later, Odin, Grand Duke Vieiro, and the envoys of the Highland Knights were summoned. Grand Duke Eero thought for a moment after reading the letter in his hand, and then called his men. The middle-aged knight who claimed to have dealt with Madara for a long time and knew something about the black rose of Bromanto, after hearing the princess’s question, shook his head and said: "There have been rumors about There are some changes going on in Madala, but I think it is this time that they will act more cautiously. If what Earl Tonigel said is true, how can the blood rod be taken from them at this time? Does the supreme person get full support in his hands?"
"I think our main enemy should be Jean de Nell," Grand Duke Vieiro even put forward his own views: "We have just signed a peace agreement with Madara. The blood rod should not be too reckless, he It should be deceived by the transferee Denell, thinking that he sent troops after seeing the opportunity to take advantage of them and please their supreme one."
Grand Duke Vieiro’s answer was too subjective, everyone in the room couldn’t help shaking their heads, and Griffin frowned, because her grandfather’s analysis was almost the opposite of Brando. It was clear that, The focus of the Lord Tonigel's plan was on Madara. This was in line with her thoughts. She didn't want to make changes on this, so she pretended not to hear her grandpa's answer, but looked at the Highland Knight.
The head of the envoy of the Highland Knights is an experienced and stable old knight, but the one who speaks is a slightly younger wizard. The wizard simply replied: "According to the information we have received, it is not supported yet. Count Tonigel’s view, although Madara’s supreme one has almost unified the opinions of the dark nobles, Madara cannot be said to be completely unified now. Most of the vampire families support him, but the dark lord is with him. However, the corpse witch just bowed his head temporarily due to the pressure of the first two. In addition, Alvette, the banshee king, is always resisting the caress from the Holy Palace of Eleudenier. In our opinion, the two Sooner or later there will be a battle between them."
It seems that almost all the information is against Brando’s judgment. Griffith is a little embarrassed. From the heart, she is willing to believe in the earl Tonigel, although she has some ambitions about Brando’s possible existence. Scared, but she trusts Brando's judgment on the future situation, especially since the two have surprisingly consistent political views. But how can I convince others, or is Brando really wrong
At this time, Freya finally couldn't help but speak: "Perhaps Alvette and the queen are just eccentric? The blood rod lightly starts the battle, which is equivalent to saying that it violates the peace agreement between the two countries. Failure is likely to be eradicated directly. The blood rod itself is the most unruly faction among the Dark Lords. It has no reason to meet and please Madara’s supreme one. Jug is a cruel and greedy lord, and it revenges in the first place. Karasushi was just driven by his irritable character rather than reason, and again it may also be scorning the authority of the supreme one. If this is the case, the information on the stage now makes sense."
Her words silenced the entire study.
No one knew that this was the closest guess to the truth, and even Freya herself didn't understand it. She just listened to Brando by accident, blindly trusting the other's judgment. But after a moment of silence, she saw the highland knights shaking their heads, and the middle-aged knight under Grand Duke Vieiro even spoke: "Absurd, you are purely a conspiracy theory. This is a war. We How can it be possible to speculate about the entanglement between the supreme being and the blood rod? The point is, besides speculation, is there any evidence for these things you are talking about?"
"Evidence?" Freya blushed. The evidence was that Brando told her, but she also understood that this sentence could not be used as evidence.
In the end, it was Griffith because of her relief. "In any case, Lord Earl's proposal is for prudent purposes. Please forward the contents of this letter to the generals below. It is prepared and not a bad thing." After speaking, the princess looked at the daughter of the land knight. , Couldn't help shaking her head, she knew Brando wanted this little girl to stand alone in the future, she did have this qualification and background, and after experiencing so many things, she did become calm, but she was involved Count Tonigel still seemed too anxious when he was arguing. Somehow, she was a little envious in her heart. Brando’s political views were actually her political views. The defense against Madara was also one of her thoughts, but she could not stand up like Freya. Outspokenly defend the opinions of himself and the earl Tonigel.
Because she is the sister of the future King Eruin, the actual master of the balance of the kingdom at this moment.
Overwell looked at the handwritten book written by his nominal student. It contained the opinions on Brando's proposal passed by everyone. He shook his head secretly. Her Royal Highness was still too immature in these aspects, she was too unhappy. Knowing the people below, the messengers of Vieiro and Lantonilan seem to be very indifferent, and the attitude of the Highland Knights has not shown enough attention. If the above is so, the following is a violation of the law. The execution of this warrant is still left. It is doubtful how much it will drop.
However, Sir Wolf did not expect that all of them would soon not need to worry about this problem, because just before this order came out of the gates of Valendenburg, Bromanto's black rose was already in the shadows. Bloom quietly.
Golan-Elson Corridor-
This corridor is located to the north of the Yusong Mountains, between Tosangkad Forest and Buchi. It has another name, the Silman Region. Like most territories located on the border of Eruin, Sillman is not a rich place either. Sillman is undulating on the west side, but only in the east of the river valley there are gentle areas, dotted villages. And the manor is scattered on this river valley. There are two rivers in the south, one flowing through Buche, one flowing through the Silman Valley, and finally into Lake Walenden, and this second river is Silman The lifeline of the region.
Since the harvest month, the cavalry of the three brigades has been scattered on this lifeline. It sounds like a strong force, but they are loosely distributed to each town. In fact, it is the strength of one or two squadrons. In order to prevent the dispersal of troops, the deputy commander Walter concentrated most of the active forces in the most prosperous Owl Town in the Silman area, and then released the patrols and scouts of the entire cavalry regiment in the form of squads to monitor the southern army. Songshan Pass. And it was this evening that the patrols that were supposed to return on time gradually disappeared.
It was about seven o'clock in the morning when the scouts reported that they had found traces of a small group of death and movement in the south. However, at this time, most people in the Sillman Valley still had a fluke, and even Walter thought it was just Madara. Temptation. The reason is very simple. Since Madara controls the more open area of Buch, he really doesn't see any need to attack from the Silman Valley. At 8:30, Walter saw a messenger from Van Meer and learned that from the afternoon, a large number of undead troops were attacking Van Meer's front line of defense.
Madara's main offensive force was indeed Buch, and Walter was relieved. Although he also received a warning from the princess, the Van Meir Legion is actually closer to the Golan-Elson Duke. This is a well-known fact. Her Royal Highness reminded the Duke out of kindness, but the Duke especially It is that the people below may not appreciate it, not to mention those who have fought with Madara all the time in their hearts think that the above are purely commanding.
They knew exactly what the bones on the other side of the mountain were thinking.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Walter rubbed his eyes and walked out of the tent, trying to make one last observation, and then he saw the miracle of rising stars in the sky.
