The First Holy War generally refers to the War of the Saints that took place a thousand years ago, a war in which four Saints led the Black Iron people to resist the cruel rule of the Dark Dragon, a glorious and sacred war praised by countless songs.
The Second Holy War began at the end of the Year of Chaos. It was a holy war launched by the Faenzan people, the Cruz people, and the wind elves in order to open up the vast wilderness and black forest between the three countries. It belonged to the era of pioneering knights, and the wilderness
The above magnificent and generous lament lasted until the establishment of Eruin. After that, the territories of the three empires were basically formed, with only long and narrow dark forests as buffer zones between countries. This war was equally magnificent and lasted for nearly two years.
For centuries, the name jihad was established.
The Third Holy War began in the Year of Glory and lasted for nearly half a century - and then facts proved that this war was neither glorious nor honorable, especially the November War in the last seven years, which turned bloodshed into
People's only memory of this war. The reason why the war started was due to the magic technology brought by the Hazel people after the rise. The introduction of new technologies brought countries into the most prosperous era, but the hidden dangers caused by population expansion also gradually
It appeared that when the population began to pour into the border, the empire had to turn its attention to the remaining undeveloped areas.
Starting from the Year of Glory, the three empires followed the sacred covenant and jointly marched towards the borders of the Four Realms. The war started south of the Alkhash Mountains, but it eventually turned into a terrible mistake. Throughout the war
, due to the conflicts over land division, the royal family’s mutual distrust and the increasing conflict between the temple’s teachings, and the believers of the Oneness of All Creation Church causing trouble and deceiving people’s hearts, the 320th year of the First Era - Vertical Change
In the year of , the Levoz local army of the Cruz people suddenly launched an attack on the flanks of the wind elves who were allies. This battle was apparently to retaliate for an earlier conflict, but there was no lack of shadows of the actions of the All-Union Society.
.Subsequently, the human legion on the side of the wind elves also retaliated, completely intensifying the conflict. Humans and wind elves fought each other on a long and narrow battlefield. The high-level nobles of the Union of All Things infiltrated into the ordered society played an indispensable role in the battle.
It worked, but by the time most nobles woke up, the results were already irreversible.
But this actually reflects people's hearts in a certain way. Ron Samilian, a scholar from Runeburg, wrote in his book, "People put too much blame on some evil force without reflecting on it."
It is my own fault. In fact, history has already proven that this force only played a certain role in promoting the whole war, and it only exposed the ugly side of human nature even more -', this statement describes
The scene of the war at that time, after June, the Faenzan people joined the war naked, and then Tuoquining's lions, large and small principalities and kingdoms were involved in the whirlpool, and the war dragged all participants
into an endless battle, driven by hatred, greed, or other reasons, until they fight each other to exhaustion.
After the war, the Cruz people occupied the entire Four Realms and a small part of the Clover Plain, including a large area of land that originally belonged to the wind elves. The Faenzan people were the biggest winners, benefiting from both sides. The lion people
Solved their need for hatred, but many principalities, large and small, were enslaved in the war - because of the greed of the imperial nobles, or the needs of the war process - on the surface, it seems that the second holy war is between the cave beasts.
It has come to an end before and after, but in fact the seeds of deeper hatred have been sown. The last trust between the empire and the empire has been lost. Friction on the border is increasing day by day. Almost everyone understands that these three beasts are just...
They lost their strength and needed a short period of recuperation, and each of them wanted to jump up and bite the other to death immediately.
The Cruz people needed to make some kind of repayment for the blood of the nobles shed in the November War in the last seven years. Although they benefited from the war, they were more hurt, and this pain made the entire aristocratic class change.
The people were impetuous and full of anger, which made them want to be freed from that dishonorable war and punish the Faenzan people and the wind elves. This kind of atmosphere made the Cruz people intensify their exploitation of small countries, and also caused the return of all things.
After a while, it penetrated into a broader market. However, for the wind elves, they also have unforgettable hatred, whether it is for the Faenzan people or the Cruz people. They lost their territory in the war, so naturally
Faenzan, who wanted to take it back. The only one who hoped to maintain the results of the last war, gradually became impatient due to the constant provocations of the Cruz people and the wind elves on the border.
The Fourth Holy War - or the third. Because of the disgraceful influence of the Third Holy War, more and more people in the world are unwilling to connect the subsequent Holy War with the War of the Holy Ones, especially scholars, many of whom
People do not regard the War of the Saints as the same type of war to expand territory, but take it out from history and put it aside - so the pain caused by the second war is destined to be lost in the third war.
It was something that all countries had expected, but when it actually started, it happened earlier than everyone expected.
At the end of July, there was a big explosion in the Death Frost Forest.
On the same day, areas such as Toquining, Volez and Okins were bombarded by the fourteenth-level spell God's Judgment. There were countless casualties and the three cities were almost reduced to ashes.
Within the next two months, the Golden Maned Lions began to gather a large army. Their attack started from the Gray Mountains and Yanilasu area in the south, crossed the Holy White Plains, and began to march towards Cruz. Frost Moon
At the beginning of , the lions left the warm plains and arrived at the gate of the Lion Fortress. The news of the coming war spread throughout the Cruz Empire within half a month. And within the same month, the revenge army of the wind elves started from
Set off from the ruins of Orkins, they attacked the crimson army of the Cruz people on the Clover Plain. The wind elves quickly regained several towns and fortresses on the Clover Plain, and were on the border with the Cruz people on the Four-Leaf Wilderness.
Expand the stalemate.
As for the Faenzan people, although they have not taken action on the surface, their troops have already begun to gather from White City and Gracius——
When the order from Constance and High Priest Valla to summon envoys and nobles from various countries under the rule of the Temple of Fire arrived in Rushta, Brando understood that the second chapter of the game - the story of war and chaos
The time has come early.
Her Royal Highness the Princess confirmed the candidates for the envoy in the shortest possible time.
First of all, the leader of the envoy is naturally Brando. Although there are many objections in the royal party, Griffin suppressed all objections. She understands the true purpose of Brando's trip and supports it.
The earl did this. Most of the opponents of the royal party thought that this was an act that indulged childishness and impulsiveness, but she didn't think so. Brando's words, "This is the backbone and pride of a nation" finally moved her.
Without her, the kingdom really needs to have some pride of its own, and Griffith understands that such a flag will allow her to gain some people who truly support her, rather than those nobles who are always timid and fearful of trouble.
They had parted ways with her as early as Ampelsel, and Her Royal Highness the Princess had no luck with this.
If the nobles of a kingdom do not stand with her, then she must at least stand with its citizens. Brando's words seem to light up a beacon for her in the darkness.
Next, as for the candidates for the royal family, Her Royal Highness the Princess still stubbornly chose Haruze - which made Brando a little flattered. He knew the rules among the Warnd nobles very well, so he also knew the princess very well.
The reason for His Highness's choice - because Haruze is the future crown prince of Eruin, it is impossible for the Cruz people to detain him in the empire for any purpose. Otherwise, the Silver Queen will not only offend all her subjects.
, and even leave an extremely bad reputation among the imperial nobility.
But doing so still requires taking some risks. The crown prince's trip itself is full of unstable factors. Prince Lenaret, who is still living in seclusion in Tonigel, is a ready example. But Griffith is determined.
, is willing to let her beloved brother take risks, but also protects Brando, the head of the mission, because she understands what Brando means to Eruin at the moment. If he dies in Cruz, then she and Ha
Luze's future is also bleak. She knows exactly what she is going to do, and in her opinion: As the future king of Eruin, it is time for Haruze to take responsibility for the future of this kingdom.
These are her original words to her only brother: "Haruze, the experience you and your teacher have on this mission is likely to become the most valuable asset in your life; Haruze, this may be
I tell you for the last time, you must be strong alone, because you are the king of Eruin."
The little prince didn't have any objections, but he was frightened by his sister's sternness and almost cried, but when Princess Griffith glared hard, he swallowed his tears back in his stomach, and then
He nodded honestly.
Brando, with some gratitude to Her Royal Highness the Princess, returned to Tonigel and began to select the 'attendants and deputies' who would accompany him. He knew clearly in his heart that this so-called mission was just a cover, and he really
Everyone around him knew exactly what he was going to do, so what this so-called envoy needed was not a protocol officer full of aristocratic etiquette, but an army that could turn Cruz upside down.
This 'army' is small in number, and he already has suitable candidates in his mind.
"Since almost all the funds in the territory have been invested in preparations for war - mainly the recruitment and training of the White Lion Guards, the creation of weapons and armor, the expenses of magic crystals, daily maintenance, the acquisition of rare materials, etc.
Wait - in short, the construction in the Black Forest has basically come to a standstill. This situation can last for about three to four months, and within half a year at the latest, our previous achievements will be shaken."
The carriage was bumping, and Lin Ying passed through the window. As the wheels moved forward, they left mottled patterns on the black dress. Brando's face was bright and dark under the interplay of light and shadow. He supported his chin with one hand and listened to the businessman.
It was rare for the young lady to read the report to herself - this was a very boring thing in Roman's eyes, so her little eyebrows were knitted together. As part of her interest as a businessman, she didn't mind reading the mountains of reports.
Account books or similar documents, but when she had to read them out one by one and turn them into audio books, she began to feel a little thirsty.
But this was what Brando wanted her to do. She used this reason to convince herself for about five minutes or ten seconds, but immediately found a new excuse - Brando always liked to see her in trouble.
This made her feel very unhappy. Lord Roman was unhappy, and Roman began to realize this. She raised her feather-like eyebrows, moved her mouth quickly and said: "The White Lion Guard suffered casualties in the previous war.
There were almost a hundred people chattering..."
Brando stared at this guy: "Wait, what was the second half of what you said, I didn't hear it clearly at all."
"That's the content of the second half, isn't it? It's just that I read it very fast and you didn't hear it clearly, but I've already finished reading it." The business lady began to act like she always did.
"You are lying. Didn't you agree that you would read the report to me this afternoon? I have to understand what happened in the territory during this period." Brando replied angrily.
"But I've already finished reading. I used what my aunt taught me - 'the witch's method of reading quickly'. Brando didn't hear clearly, which means Brando is not a witch. That has nothing to do with Roman," she said with dark eyes.
He turned around and stuffed a stack of reports into Fuluo's hand next to him: "But you can ask Fuluo to read it for you. She doesn't know how to read quickly like a witch, so Brando doesn't have to worry about not being able to hear clearly.
"
Brando was convinced that her 'witch's method of reading quickly' must have suddenly jumped out of some unknown corner of her little mind, but the imagination of this business lady was so rich that the same name
There was a difference between before and after. He rolled his eyes and didn't bother to expose it, because this young lady would be able to justify herself in the end anyway. This was Lord Roman's stunt, rolling all over the floor, which ordinary people couldn't learn.
He looked at Fro, who was sitting opposite the two of them, turning a blind eye to the two living treasures in front of her, including her lord. She silently sorted out the manuscript and continued reading: "The casualties of the White Lion Guard have been reduced from Tony."
Geer and the Mintai Regional Guard were recruited by new recruits, and an additional 500 people were added, totaling 1,500 people with the previously expanded part. However, these recruits are still training in Toni Geer and Jeandenel.
It cannot be used in a short period of time."
"Caglis did a good job." Brando praised.
The scenery outside the car window had long been replaced by a peaceful mountain forest. It was already the second day after returning to Tonigel. He stretched out in the car and found that he felt more relaxed after returning to the territory. In Prague
Although Scott's home was very warm, he was still very awkward when facing his father - after all, this was his own territory that he had built step by step. He originally wanted his parents to move to Tonigel, but the old Scott
Te stubbornly refused to accept it. Although his mother Windsor seemed a little moved, she still couldn't make the trip in the end. Fortunately, Bunid promised to send someone to take care of his family. With the protection of the Highland knights, he didn't worry about Madara's possible revenge.
Her Royal Highness the Princess failed to bid farewell in the end. Princess Griffith wanted to arrange for him to be the leader of the envoy to Cruz. Naturally, she had to go to Tonigel in person to review the team he had selected to go to the Empire - beware.
The Count really led an army to Cruz. Of course, this was just an excuse on the surface. It was actually against the rules for the princess to go to the territory of a subject in private, and it also had a negative impact on her reputation. But the world
Everyone knows that Tonigel and Jeandenel's territory is adjacent to Vlada, so it is not unreasonable that she insists on detouring from Tonigel.
However, Brando knew in his heart that Her Royal Highness the Princess would probably not leave easily when she came to Fir Territory this time. His leaving Eruin for Cruz would have an unsettling effect on the situation in the kingdom, and at least on the surface, in
In the eyes of the world, there is still a Tonigel person standing behind Her Royal Highness the Princess. If Count Tonigel is no longer in the kingdom in a short period of time, then she is likely to face the danger of being ignored by the royal party again.
She came to her territory this time not only with the intention of inspecting the rear, but also to show the outside world her close relationship with him, Count Tonigel. Regarding these considerations of Her Royal Highness, Brando was not convinced at first.
He thought too much and just assumed that Her Royal Highness the Princess was here to bid farewell to him. However, after being reminded by Antitina, he realized that. In fact, Tony Geer and the royal family are also interdependent. When he is not in the country,
His territory especially needs to be recognized by the royal family, which is related to the legitimacy of the territory and to avoid being taken advantage of by the royal party.
Therefore, after understanding the eldest princess's considerations, he began to cooperate with her in a tacit understanding.
For this reason, Princess Griffin conferred on him the title of Count Gendenel on the first day she arrived at Toniguer. This was actually a compensatory title, because Toniguer was never a count.
Originally, Brando had no ambitions for Denel. In his original plan, it was best for Denel and Anlek to be merged into the royal family's territory to further strengthen the power of the central government and also give
It serves as a model for other places, not to mention that Anlek has the kingdom's second best source of troops - the highlanders (Eruin's main source of troops comes from the Gray Mountain area), and Jean Denel is the only one in the south besides Ampelsel.
The most prosperous territory outside the country, after owning these two territories, the royal family can be said to have a decisive say in Eruin.
As for himself, Count Tonigel is just a cover. The land of order opened up in the Ring of Trade Winds itself is nearly half the size of the Southern Territory, and when it fully grows, it will not be difficult to create another Eruin.
The key is that it contains exciting mineral deposits and resources, so he has no interest in operating other territories.
But Princess Griffin dispelled his idea with just a few words. Her Royal Highness the Princess told him solemnly that the title of knighthood itself was not only a reward, but also a recognition. With his current status and relationship with her,
If he had not been given the title of Earl of Gendenel today, he might easily arouse suspicion from the outside world and make the situation in the kingdom turbulent. Instead of increasing the royal family’s voice, it would only make Corcova
The loss of family prestige will also shake the legitimacy of Tony Geer. After Brando heard this, he realized that his idea was a bit too naive and had to follow the good news.
After receiving the title of Gendenel, he nominally obtained part of the command of the Southern Army, and this expansion was actually carried out in this name.
Princess Griffin just pretended not to see it and did not mention a word about the ownership of the former Southern Legion that was still recuperating in the Ampelsel area. Brando also seemed to pretend to have forgotten this, and the two maintained a tacit understanding to play this
In a scene, outsiders just thought that the two young people had not yet understood the operation of the local forces in the kingdom. Almost no one, including the royal party, reminded them of this, as if they were waiting to watch it with the mentality of watching a joke.
They made a fool of themselves. But many people inside Tonigel understood that their lord had obviously received some kind of instruction and was preparing to clean up the root of the mess where the local nobles in the south - the legion forces were holding each other back.
.
But this plan has just begun, and Brando has to put it away and hand it over to Caglis or Her Royal Highness, because the Cruz people are causing trouble for him. He interrupted the wild elf in front of him.
My sister skipped this paragraph and asked: "In terms of preparations for war, the reserve of supplies can be slowed down a little. If there is really going to be a war with the Cruz people, it cannot be just a matter of Toniguer. Princess
Your Highness will find a way to help. The focus of supplies and funds should be on Valhalla, Fro, if I need to use all the Valkyries, how long can the territory sustain it?"
"If we slow down the pace in other aspects, with the supply of the magic crystal mine in the black forest, there should be no problem in maintaining it for one year, Lord." The elf girl replied without changing her expression.
“What if we want to keep building within the Black Forest?”
"Three months to half a year."
Brando nodded: "Where are the acquired materials?"
"Currently, there are only Phoenix Wings and Singing Silver, both of which are very rare. As for the other materials that the Lord wants, we have no idea yet." Fuluo looked at him and said.
