The gently undulating hills are like a wrinkled carpet. The last color of late summer has not yet faded after autumn. The vegetation is a deep green. The drizzle is falling. The slightly cold air seems to cover the entire battlefield with a layer of mist.
Down... On the hills next to the river valley, many figures gradually appeared on the edge of the linden forest. They were soldiers, wearing heavy armor and pointed helmets. On their right shoulders was the head of a white lion.
The lion lowered its eyelids, as if thinking all the time, outlining the calm momentum of this army. Most of the non-commissioned officers who were the first to come out of the forest had an embossed emblem of a burning devil's horns on their shoulder armor.
It means that they are veterans who have participated in the Ambesel War and survived the bloody battle with demons. A young man walking at the front has a pair of eyes full of determination under the edge of his helmet. His name is Mars. Not only has he participated in the Ambesel War,
During the First World War, he also experienced the wolf disaster in the Ring of Trade Winds. One-half of the first group of sixty young people from various parts of Tonigel who were with him died on the battlefield of Ampelsel.
, but he survived, personally took over the helmet with the long white mane from the lord, and became the squadron leader knight of the White Lion Guard.
He turned his head and looked at another noncommissioned officer behind him. The other man also wore a helmet with a metal mask. He could only see a pair of light brown eyes that exuded wisdom. He knew that the man was called Uriel, although he had never participated in the competition.
In the battle of Ampelsel, he was the first veteran to follow the lord. Now, like him, he is already the backbone non-commissioned officer of the White Lion Guard. There are still many such people in the Fir Territory. Brando currently has two systems, one
It is the original copper dragon mercenary group. The leader of this mercenary group is the copper dragon Leto. This veteran of the long war has already had a transcendent status in Tony Geer. Most of his men were the first to follow Bran.
A large number of people have followed the Lord, and now this system has a vague sense of veteran style. However, Brando has always deliberately downplayed the military status of non-professional soldiers in Tonigel. The Red Copper Dragon Mercenary Group is stationed in Min.
Tai is now mainly responsible for the local security work in the Fir Territory, and is in the same position as the caveman responsible for local defense. However, Leto himself has no ambitions, so he is content with this arrangement.
Of course, Brando's arrangement was never out of power considerations, but simply to emphasize the future role of professional soldiers for Tony Geer, and even for this kingdom; no one knows better than him how powerful the private armies of the old nobles were.
There are many shortcomings. What Viero's army experienced today is a bloody lesson. Those who originally didn't understand Brando's arrangements were shocked and admired, but they didn't understand what Brando saw.
It's far more than that. At this moment, he understands better than anyone else what Eruin will need.
Brando's other system is the formation of the White Lion Army and the Wind Archer Army. This system is the blood of Tony Geer's future, but he has not stopped his old subordinates from the original camp from participating. Many people see
This legion is Brando's real core strength in the future. Those who are optimistic about the future of the White Lion Guard even include several mercenary captains who were originally around Brando - except for Kerenthia who is now in the logistics department.
In addition to serving in the ministry, Juta and Fern both took the initiative to join the White Lion Guard and became the knight captains of the third and fourth battalions of the White Lion Guard. These people were recruited from Tonigel natives and the original White Lion Guard.
The young faction of the Royal Party has become the three major factions in the White Lion Army. However, Brando hates factional confrontation and prefers the bottom to the top, so these so-called factions only remain at the geographical level.
Uriel noticed the gazes of his colleagues and turned back - at the edge of the forest at eye level, densely packed White Lion infantry were slowly walking out of it. The young people had already drawn their swords, and the white lions were everywhere.
The lion's epee shone with a faint cold light in the drizzle; the flag bearer had not yet raised the flag, so the queue could not be seen yet, but at the far end of the field of vision, there were several figures standing tall on horseback in the mist.
"Are you nervous?" In such a cold weather, Brando could almost exhale, but with his strength, he naturally didn't need to wear a metal mask, or even too heavy armor, he only wore it outside his vest and shirt.
A breastplate, with a belt buckled tightly around the waist under the gray breastplate, with a two-headed eagle engraved on it, which was exactly the trophy he had won: the Gap of Lonia. He was
Saying these words to Freya beside her, the future Valkyrie shook her head, "This is not my first time on the battlefield, Brando is really good," she thought to herself, but in Ampelser
She was so nervous that she almost couldn't hold the sword that she had practiced so well. After experiencing battle after battle, she gradually got used to it. She raised her head and looked forward, her bright eyes like
He can see through the smog several miles away: "This place really looks like Butchi, uncle, aunt, this time I will drive back those hateful invaders!"
It was also the gentle hills of the Yusong Mountains. Behind the rain and mist was the same enemy that night. Freya's eyes seemed to be burning with a firm belief, just like the blazing fire in Buchi that night. She tightened her consciousness.
The lion-hearted sword in his hand.
A group of figures walked out of the mist.
"Caglis!" Miss Melia Priest next to Brando shouted with relief. She is no longer a female escort in men's clothing, but has resumed her girlish attire. Her beautiful long light golden hair makes her
She became a well-known beauty in the Fir Territory, but she took advantage of this kid Caglis. Melia's father is a nobleman south of Ampelsel, and the family has Cruz blood, so her father also inherited the imperial vision.
Yu Ding's temper has always been against his daughter's relationship with Caglis, a boy from a remote village. However, since Brando became famous in the kingdom, his snobbish father-in-law was optimistic about Caglis' future and acquiesced.
Because of this incident, Melia and Caglis are now completely devoted to Brando.
Caglis blushed and glanced at Melia. There were several young people behind him. Brando saw Ke Wen behind him at a glance. "He actually came in person." Brando was slightly surprised, but
He did not show it on his face. Instead, he raised his hand and threw a helmet with a long mane and a embossed wing. Caglis took the helmet and replied with a playful smile: "Caglis will report to you.
, Sir, please return to the team." He glanced at his lord and nodded approvingly, couldn't help but glance at Melia who was standing aside, and replied a little embarrassedly: "Lord, why did you let her come too.
"
"Miss Melia is the most outstanding priest in the territory and the head of my army of priests. Why can't she come?" Brando replied angrily, and then gave the guy a teasing look: "Of course, in
On personal matters, Melia belongs to you. But you can't stop her from dedicating her abilities to the territory, right, Caglis, you can't be too selfish."
In fact, Melia is not the first priest under Brando, but should be Hipamila. However, Hipamila is a priest of Himilud. Eruin under the rule of the Temple of Fire can only act alone.
, otherwise it will probably cause religious strife. When Brando said this, he suddenly remembered that there is another Unitarian currently living in the territory who is far away in terms of research on doctrine and status in the temple.
The existence that is better than Melia is Her Royal Highness the nun princess of Antuobuluo. However, Magdal has not fully recovered yet and is still recovering. Even if she is willing, Brando will not agree to her risking such a bad thing.
It would be a little too unkind to allow Denel to go on an expedition in bad weather.
When the priestess heard the second half of Brando's words, she blushed so much that she almost burned up. Even though Caglis was as thick-skinned as a city wall, he couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed. He found that he often made jokes with the lord, but
The earl seems to have shown signs of being superior to him in this regard recently, which is really unfathomable. Of course, he didn't know that Brando had to receive hundreds of times more information every day in his previous life, and he needed to
Speaking of his ability to complain, he could only be far better than him and never be inferior to him. The reason why he didn't care about him before was purely because the majesty of the lord had not yet been established.
I am afraid that even Caglis himself has not noticed it. Unknowingly, he has completely recognized this lord who is probably one or two years younger than him.
He hurriedly coughed twice and covered it up. At this time, Brando had been looking at Ke Wen behind him. The young man was thinner than when he first met, and his cheeks were deeply sunken.
, but the pair of dark eyes are deeper and sharper, and the whole person is becoming more and more tenacious. He is wearing a thick animal skin cloak, and the whole person's temperament looks a bit like little Pello. It's just that he hasn't seen him for half a year.
He has grown a lot taller. He was still a young boy before, but now he has completely become the master of a party.
"Long time no see, Lord Earl." Ke Wen said first. He had watched Brando teasing with his men with great interest, but he was very surprised at the relationship between the other party's master and his subordinates. He was born under the rule of Denel.
He was born in the mining area of Eruin and was used to the exploitation of the lower classes by the old aristocrats of Eruin. He deeply hated and had a great affection for those aristocratic bureaucrats. Like all people who have had ambitions since childhood, Ke Wen dared to put his hatred into
Action; but in the final analysis, the vision of the future King of Gendenel is still difficult to transcend this era. Although he yearns for equality and freedom, it is difficult to imagine a world that truly advocates equality between people. Therefore,
It's hard to understand Brando, a freak among the nobility.
"It seems that Count Tonigel is indeed a maverick as the rumors say. I just don't know whether it is because of his own character or hypocrisy?" In fact, he already had the answer in his mind. After all, Bran
He had been kind to all of them underground in Safrund. This lord left a deep impression on him at first: he was different from the treachery of ordinary nobles, he paid attention to promises and kept his promises, and he had the demeanor of ancient nobles.
.Ke Wen never simply hated the nobility, but hated the upper class of the kingdom that blocked the decadence. Every Eruin person has a yearning for the belief in the ancestor Ek, and Ke Wen is no exception. Brando is like this
The appearance of a nobleman gave him a revelation.
Maybe this is the person he is looking for.
The future King of Denel had extremely complicated thoughts, but he didn't show any signs of it on his face. He looked at Brando. Brando actually had a vague guess in his heart at this moment, but he still couldn't believe it.
The future leader of a party wanted to join him? He was almost flattered. In Brando's view, someone like Ke Wen could jump from being a refugee to becoming the de facto ruler of a region.
The kind of person who is known from birth, ambitious, and has great ambitions. If Eruin's pattern is not too small, his future achievements will not be limited to this. If this kind of person is placed in the history of his motherland in another life,
That is the founder of a dynasty. Such a person actually plans to join him?
For the first time since Brando traveled to this world, he felt a bit domineering, but he also reacted in a daze. After all, the current Ke Wen is not the one who will make Denel the next one.
Wang, he is just a bandit leader now. He has not encountered so many opportunities in history, and because of his own existence, he will probably never wait for that opportunity in his life. When he was in Schaflund at that time, the reason why Ke Wen
He didn't take refuge with him. Firstly, it was because he was just a bandit leader at that time and obviously had no attraction to him. Secondly, at that time, Ke Wen obviously didn't have as many ideas as he does now.
I want to go somewhere other than Schavlund and see the wider world.
But only half a year later, major changes have occurred in this young man's heart. It seems that this wider world has indeed changed his life.
"Thank you very much for everything you have done for the Silman region in this war, Mr. Coven. Sometimes origin does not mean everything. Nobles are never born superior. There are capable people everywhere, and you happen to be
The most outstanding one among them." Brando praised lightly: "Some people's starting line is far before you. They are protected by their fathers, but now they are far behind you. Mr. Kewen, the ancient nobles
When the sword plows open the borders of this kingdom, their origins are never destined by God, only five words - faith and struggle."
Ke Wen's eyes lit up immediately. This was exactly what he had been looking for. Everything Brando said seemed to be confirmed by the confusion in his heart. He almost suspected that the other party had something.
With the ability to penetrate people's hearts, he looked at Brando with an incredible look. But in fact, the future King of Gendenel was not wrong. Brando did have some kind of power to penetrate his heart.
Historically, Ke Wen has been pursuing the glory of this ancient nobility. This is actually the ideal that every Eruin person yearns for. However, most people can only dream about it in their hearts, but Ke Wen dares to put it into practice.
in action.
Brando knew what the King of Gendenel was thinking, so naturally he would not be wrong in every word. However, he was still a little worried. After all, the person in front of him was already different from his historical experience. Maybe his outlook on life, likes and dislikes
Has it changed a long time ago? But Ke Wen's look finally made him feel relieved, "Fortunately, although Warnd's history is now in chaos, at least some details are still difficult to change." He thought to himself that he should have already changed.
How much did you convince the other party?
"Silman is an important gateway to the southern border of the kingdom. You have seen what its future will be like today. To the south here is a dark country. The empire that is rising there will be the most terrifying enemy of the kingdom in the future.
.Mr. Ke Wen, there are actually far more things you can do than what you can do today."
Ke Wen calmed down and shook his head: "I am just a desperado. Sir Earl, everything I did today is far from being as noble as you said. It was just to repay your favor."
"Mr. Kewen, why do you have to belittle yourself?" Freya also heard it at this moment. I am afraid there is a quarrel between the two people. She only fights to protect Butch's ideals, and the other half of her heart is only tied to Bran.
She knew very well that Brando wanted to conquer the young man in front of her. She never had to ask why Brando did what he did, she had already spoken out to persuade her. But Ke Wen just glanced at the female knight in front of her.
, shook his head and did not answer.
Brando knew that Freya's high-sounding words learned from the Royal Knights Academy were probably of no use to this ambitious young man. That set of things could only be used by a simple-minded girl like Freya. He looked at Ke Wen
, replied: "You and I are both desperadoes, desperate for this kingdom and the beliefs in our hearts. In the face of such persistence, everything else is insignificant. Why do you need to care about those red tapes?"
Ke Wen pondered for a moment, then no longer refuted, but nodded slightly and stood aside. Brando knew that he was already moved, so he stopped asking. This man is a real outstanding person, and his background is very similar to his own.
, if he once surrenders, he can only stand with him. Looking at the entire kingdom, no one except him will give these people equal treatment. In fact, even he himself, if it were not for the support and support of Her Royal Highness the Princess,
This identity as the grandson of Sword Saint Darus may not be tenable within the kingdom.
The aristocracy's rejection of the common people is deep-rooted.
The drizzle was still falling. Brando put aside this question and asked Caglis on the side: "Tell me, what's going on in the front now? Is our Count Jacques dead or alive? How many of Viero's troops are there?"
Come down?" Caglis perked up and immediately replied: "That guy Tomobo is still a man, although his retinue of knights were a bit stupid and almost ruined the Viero people. Martha is on top, I
I have never seen such a tragic defeat before. It was just a joke. But Lord, it’s a miracle that Tomobo didn’t let his army flee. Madala’s side is really scary..."
When he mentioned Madara, he couldn't help but shudder. Since the battle of Ampelsel, all of them have thought highly of the White Lion Guard and have never taken Madara in their eyes. Although Brando has more than once
Mentioning the terror of the Bromando Rose, but in Caglis's heart, the terror of the undead army was compared to Eruin's old army. In his mind, if the undead army faced those noble private armies, it would naturally sweep them away.
However, in front of the White Lion Guard, they are nothing more than chickens and dogs. The White Lion Guard once withstood the impact of the demon army in the Battle of Ampelsel. No matter how terrifying the legend of the undead is, there is no recognized individual soldier.
The devil with the strongest fighting ability deserves to be famous.
But everything he saw today made him feel a sense of familiarity, and his awe for his lord could not help but deepen.
In fact, every general who encounters the undead army for the first time will almost have the same idea as Caglis. The undead, as individual individuals, may not be as scary as demons, but once they are unified into an army, they will be the most terrifying thing in the world.
One of the most terrifying armies in the world. This is a quiet force that neither screams out of fear nor flees out of injury. It will never give up resistance unless the battle damage rate is 100%. It has no despair and will never
An army that cheers up and only moves forward silently, then devours everything.
And their opponents will never feel the so-called advantage of bravery on these skeletons, because even if you are extremely powerful, it is meaningless when facing a bunch of wooden people. You still have to kill them one by one.
Only by killing and crushing them all can you win.
The winner of the battle with the undead will feel exhausted physically and mentally, while the loser, the loser will feel nothing, because they have become part of the black rose.
Bromando's roses never fade, as if they are eternal.
