Chapter 1: Barcelissa and the Rebels (4)

"Each of the palace guards is a warrior who can defeat hundreds of people! These few people can't stop them!" Ella turned her head and anxiously shouted to a guard who looked like a deputy captain next to the carriage, "I'll stay here.

The next five people are enough, the rest of the people should go help him!"

Unexpectedly, the deputy captain smiled broadly at Ella: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the guards in the palace are not much stronger than bandits. Our captain and twenty people are enough."

"How dare you talk nonsense in front of Baselisa!" Amy yelled from the side, "The Palace Guards are the bravest warriors selected from all over the country, how can you compare them with bandits!"

Before Amy could finish her words, a wailing sound suddenly came from behind. After a javelin salvo from the Imperial Guards, more than ten people on the Palace Guard side fell instantly. The Palace Guards were so frightened by this round of javelin fire that the Imperial Guards were stunned.

The guards took the opportunity to charge towards the palace guards. There was a close fight, and within a moment, five or six more palace guards fell down. The remaining 80 or so palace guards immediately lost their will to fight, and in the twenty forbidden

Chased by Wei, he ran back to the palace in panic.

Ella couldn't help but shudder for a while: "It's actually a group of people who protect me day and night... How much preparation did uncle make to kill me!"

Seeing Ella's body trembling, Amy quickly comforted her and said: "Your Majesty, you should feel at ease. Lord Berengar's troops are so elite, they will be able to arrest the rebellious Scipio soon!"

There was a sound of horses ripping from the front, and thirty cavalrymen rushed towards Ella's carriage. They were both men and horses armed with thick iron armor, with only two eyes exposed from head to toe. They were about to collide.

Only then did Ella's carriage stop. The leading cavalryman took off his helmet on the horse, and the face revealed was that of Berengar, the commander of the Praetorian Guards.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you are looking for me!"

"Berengar, Su Cornelius Scipio tried to kill me, intending to rebel. I order you to lead the Praetorian Guards into the palace and capture Su Cornelius Scipio.

, life or death!"

Berengar narrowed his eyes: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I swore an oath to the late king to protect the late king and his bloodline to the death. Before capturing the palace, please stay in the Praetorian Guard camp temporarily!"

Seeing that Berengar was so reliable, Ella's heart was finally relieved.

As the night progressed, the chirping of insects outside the big tent became louder and louder.

Ella was alone in the Guards camp drawing sketches. The fright she received during the day consumed a lot of her energy. Her eyes gradually closed, her head drooped, and she immediately woke up and continued to draw. This repeated.

It happened again and again. Amy, who was standing aside, couldn't see it and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."

Ella rubbed her eyes hard: "Wait until I finish drawing this map of the palace. By the way, Amy, come here and see if the corridor here curves this way..."

"Your Majesty, Lord Berengar's troops are very elite. Even without this sketch, as long as he launches an attack tomorrow, Scipio will not be able to withstand it!"

"No, even if I can reduce one casualty, I have to finish this picture. The shield infantry and armored cavalry of the Guards are extremely important combat forces. For the future of the empire, I will do my best to complete these pictures.

We should try to keep our combat power as intact as possible.”

"Your Majesty, why are you planning so carefully? Is it to start a war with the Tianfang Empire and regain the empire's territory?"

Ella smiled bitterly and shook her head. She took out another map and placed it on the table, looking at Amy: "Amy, can you mark the former territory of the Seven Hills Empire on the map? Up north and down south.

"

Amy looked at the map left and right, and hesitantly painted several cities along the Tianfang Empire's coast in black: "Your Majesty, do you think this is right?"

Ella took Amy's map and took a look at it. She took up her pen and painted black some of the mountains bordering Tianfang Empire and Qiqiu Empire.

"Yes, yes, there are also these places. I forgot them, but Your Majesty still remembers them clearly."

Ella glanced at Amy, then took up her pen and blacked out a large area of ​​land on the map.

Amy was shocked: "This is... the anointed country Efilika? Isn't this country on the opposite side of the sea?"

"This was originally the priest group of the Qiqiu Empire. Under the attack of the Tianfang Empire, they collectively converted to monotheism and betrayed the Qiu Qiu Empire."

As Ella said coldly, she painted black some land on the map that was adjacent to the seaside of the Seven Hills Empire.

Amy's voice trembled a little: "Island Republic? Why did Your Majesty mark this place black?"

Ella ignored Amy and continued to blacken out the east and west strokes on the map. In the blink of an eye, the territory of the Seven Hills Empire doubled again. When she finally put down the pen, Amy was so frightened that she said:

At a loss for words, Ella said for Amy: "This is the Alemannic Federation, a loose alliance composed of more than 300 vassal states after the original Kuranfa Empire split. However, the entire Kuranfa Empire was originally

The territory of the Seven Hills Empire. Okay, Amy, look at this territory and tell me what you think?"

"The big... sea turned into a lake?"

"You are right. This sea that scares us now was originally just an inner lake in the empire."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Do you want to... restore, restore this entire territory?"

"The purple phoenix will be reborn from the ashes. Wherever the sun shines, all cultures are recognized as the culture of the Seven Hills Empire, and all languages ​​are recognized as the languages ​​of the Seven Hills Empire. The entire continent is integrated by the Seven Hills Empire.

Treat all peoples equally with the laws of all peoples. At that time, all fights and wars will disappear."

Ella Cornelius Scipio's eyes became bright: "Amy, I don't just want to be called Baselisa."

"Then...what would your Majesty want to be called?"

"Augusta!"

"Augu, Si, Ta." Amy repeated these four words one by one. She felt that these four words seemed to carry the weight of a thousand pounds.

"What an Augusta!" A chuckle came from outside the big tent.

"Who! Who is there!" Ella shouted anxiously. When she saw the person walking in swaggeringly, her pupils suddenly tightened:

It was Sue Cornelius Scipio. Behind him came Berengar.

"Berengar! What do you mean?"

"Berengar, listen, this little bastard still dares to scold you like this." Su said to Berengar with a faint smile. Berengar silently stepped forward and kicked Ella to the ground.

, Amy was so frightened that she hurried over to help her.

Ella endured the pain in her abdomen and asked angrily: "Berengar! Haven't you already sworn allegiance! Where is your sense of honor!"

Berengar replied without changing his expression: "My original words were, 'I swear to protect the late king and his bloodline to the death.'"

"What...what do you mean?"

"You still don't understand? It means that he thinks you are a bastard who doesn't know where you came from!" Su grabbed Ella's head and smashed it to the ground.
