In the third knight team returning to the royal capital, King Ellenni was immersed in an indescribable sense of happiness, but a series of emergencies overwhelmed him. The most powerful opponent, Duke Bashkorto, overnight
After being destroyed, the first and second knights controlled by the nobles of the royal capital, which became rivals, were also destroyed.
Even their foundation was severely damaged. Although the royal capital also suffered a disaster, in the end this was still a great joy!
He was sitting in the carriage approaching the west gate of the royal capital and thinking: "It seems that there is no large-scale opposition group left. The remaining remnants can be conquered with a little bit of tactics. It seems that I am finally going to complete the task."
The integration of the entire kingdom’s forces!”
However, this excitement only lasted until the moment he and the Third Knights approached the central mage tower. His excitement that he thought he could finally monopolize power almost completely dissipated.
When he entered the city from the west gate, he didn't know what was happening in the royal capital through the city wall. When his carriage drove out of the street, the buildings on both sides suddenly disappeared, and the window suddenly became brighter, which made him
I opened the curtains and took a look, and I was stunned.
He originally thought that the aristocratic district of the royal capital in the report was razed to the ground was just a rhetorical device, but after seeing it, he realized that it was an objective and calm statement. No matter what kind of pavilions and buildings they once were, they are now gone.
It turned into an inconspicuous little mound. The outer walls and brick bell tower were peeled off by the shock wave, and now only the frame made of alchemical concrete remains.
He couldn't imagine what kind of battle scene it was that would turn this large block into what it is now. When he hurriedly climbed up to the central mage tower and observed the entire royal capital through the projection, if it weren't for the mage tower,
The window, he almost wanted to jump out of it on the spot.
The most prosperous and prosperous streets in the royal capital have now been completely reduced to ruins. Near the Grand Theater in the east of the Mage Tower, there are large pits nearly one person deep one after another. Looking outside, two third-level magic towers lying in the ruins are deeply buried.
It stung his heart. Next, the east gate and the east city wall were completely destroyed. The long bridge outside the east gate also became a broken bridge and needed to be repaired.
There was no need to wait for the list of losses. The king habitually wanted to calculate how to apportion the losses to... Only then did he remember that his opponents were gone, which meant that he had to pay for these losses and reconstruction. Just thinking about this
The maintenance costs made the king's eyes darken and he fainted!
When the king woke up, his first words were: "Suvorov! Who did this! I'm going to kill him!"
"Nomos, the commander of the army on the southeastern border of Nazwa. He should be a cloud giant close to legend."
The king paused for a moment, cloud giant, commander of the Nazwa army, close to legend. The meaning contained in these words was too terrible, and his anger was immediately extinguished. Now he doesn't even dare to think about revenge.
He, but he couldn't say that, he had to find a way to change the topic:
"Then let's take a long-term view. I heard that the Seventh Regiment played a major role in the battle to defend the royal capital?"
"This is true. The Seventh Knights played a decisive role in the battle to drive away the enemy. Originally, the enemies had already rushed to this position. I called for a round of fire support and successfully defended it."
Suvorov pointed at the projection.
"Their weapons were very powerful. They killed several giants and forced other giants to withdraw from the battlefield. They also had a great suppressive effect on the giant servant army. If it weren't for this round of bombing, tens of thousands of them would have been killed.
We don’t know how long it will take to clean up the servant army that broke into the royal capital, but it was thanks to them that we finally broke through the giant barracks.”
"But how do I read the report that the heavy losses in the Noble District were caused by them? So... they also have a share of the credit for the bombing like this?"
"Not entirely. The enemy relies on the cover of the buildings and vegetation in the noble area to get close to the central magic tower. From the beginning, they can only choose to cover the attack and drive them out of the bunker. Unexpectedly, this effect has some... I asked later
After all, their weapons were designed to blast away the giant barracks. Unexpectedly, the enemy was already in our royal capital, and as a result, they seemed to have excessive power. According to their design goals, there is actually no problem."
Suvorov originally wanted to defend Polu, but he didn't expect that the king's thinking had gone wrong. In his mind, he put the hat of the destroyer of the royal capital on Polu, who was already losing points.
"It seems like a little bit? I'm afraid this little bit is a bit much!"
Although the king was very angry, he couldn't express what was in his heart!
The collateral damage caused to the royal capital while attacking the enemy cannot be said to be a mistake in any case. Moreover, the central mage tower was actually guarded and the infantry hidden in the ruins were cleared. I don’t know how many people were saved who would have died in hand-to-hand combat.
There may be as many human lives as accidental injuries.
Although he didn't care how many nobles died, it was just a number to him. But in his heart, he completely hated Polu for destroying the benefits he thought he could get in his mouth.
At this time, Polu had already run back to Hongshan. After all, each ship had 9 rounds. After three rounds, he would be empty-handed. What could he do if he stayed there?
"Now we have turned the tide, right? This intentional or unintentional operation has brought the king back to the peak of power. It should be rewarded now, right?"
After he returned, he began to happily calculate how much benefit he could get, and spent so much effort to send it up. Now the king could finally say that he kept his promise and could always fully support my crazy construction, and began to farm the land with all his strength and raise troops.
Bar?
He doesn't plan to ask for many precious resources. As long as he can provide more manpower, more food, and more environment, he won't have to plan the farming process every now and then. If he holds back for a while, the firepower will be stronger and the pipes will be more powerful.
There are so many! Things like giants are nothing to be afraid of!
For the sake of independence, Polu wrote a formal document requesting the recruitment of the remaining infantry regiments of Bashkorto and the few remaining knights of the Fifth Knights based on the small work he had done.
Now I don't have anyone who can fight. Although there seems to be a lot of people, they are all borrowed, and everything is imperative.
Moreover, it is not good to control weapons all the time while occupying the serious combat personnel. Although no one is aware of this problem, he feels that this is definitely not a long-term solution.
Although it is unlikely, if the Seventh Knights are transferred away like last winter, I am afraid that there will not be enough machine gunners! This is not good news for the artillery that requires professionalism. It is really difficult to temporarily go into battle.
It's too reluctant. If you can have your own team, even if you don't have many people, as long as you can gather enough weapons operating teams, you can develop according to your own routine.
The requirements for operators are not that high. Wouldn't these scattered low-level knights who are homeless, have no backing, and still have a certain strength value be used just right?
Out of some caution, Polu still took precautions and used the name of the militia in the official document. It was not a regular army, but just a cooperative operation, and the commander was named under Leah. This would always be approved.
Bar?
Soon, Leah received a letter to go to the royal capital for detailed discussion. Before departure, Polu told her in detail his plan for Red Mountain, his judgment of the enemy, and his thoughts on the weapons team, confirming it.
After she understood, he handed her a thick paper roll.
"Everything else is trivial. You should test this weapon operator's matter first. If it doesn't work, forget it. First, ensuring Hongshan's food supply is the key. With so many people, just drinking will kill them. If nothing else works, I can still do it.
I have to think of a way, but I can't change food."
"Don't worry, it's so close. Once things are settled, I'll have someone send you a message. I'll stay at home for two more days and then come back."
The next morning, Leah stood on the speedboat and waved to Polu and others who came to see her off. The speedboat slowly sailed towards the horizon and disappeared into the morning mist on the river.
