The news of the victory at Chantillon did not reach Mousilon so quickly. Even if there was a canal, it would still take at least two or three days. However, Lawn and Calard discussed it and felt that since they had won the battle and suffered little loss, Norska
After experiencing such a defeat, they will not dare to fight again in the short term. There is no need to fully recruit all the troops. They just send someone to report to Ryan who is in Mousilon, explaining the battle situation in detail and attaching their judgment that this may be an attack.
The news of the omen is waiting for Ryan's decision.
While the messenger was still on the road preparing to report the military situation, Ryan was preparing to go to the Freya Ancient Church District in Mousilon to visit his childhood playmate and the Patriarch of Western Britannia Diocese Alfred.
Ever since the Great Expedition to the Eight Peaks Mountain, Alfred's presence in Lane has been much lower. The reason is very simple, because Alfred has a family, and he and Ingrid are in Archbishop Wakema's house.
Married under witness, and now he is the patriarch of the diocese and the person in charge of Freya's ancient church district. He has many affairs and is not under Ryan's eyes. Naturally, the two parties have less contact than before.
Moreover, Ryan also vaguely felt that Alfred himself was ostracized to a certain extent by the knights and nobles and the Lake Lady Church. The knights and nobles and the Lake Lady Church were not hostile to Alfred, but they only rarely communicated and interacted with him.
.
On the road leading to Freya's ancient church district, the Old Guards were on guard along both sides of the road, with dragoons in front and infantry on both sides, escorting the king's motorcade.
Ryan rode his mount, the pure-blood elf war horse Grape, for a leisurely stroll, chatting with soldiers or Bertrand, Davout and others from time to time.
"Your Majesty, the Arden Forest has been relatively peaceful for a while, but occasionally you can see beastmen coming and going." Bertrand, the commander of the Old Guards, said casually to Ryan: "And over at Bastogne, Bertrand said
Lord Mond's greatest pleasure is to personally lead the Red Dragon Guards and the Brotherhood of Red Dragon Knights deep into the forest.
To slaughter the beastmen, small groups of beastmen warbands occasionally appeared in Freya's ancient church area. Therefore, Patriarch Alfred also formed his own army, including two teams of paladins, two teams of ascetics, and
Some militia troops, he also often asked residents to participate in military training together after church every week."
"How many residents are there in Freya Ancient Church District?" Ryan asked casually without comment after hearing this.
Immediately, a local attendant from Musilon came up and reported: "There are about thirty to forty thousand people, Your Majesty."
"It is normal to maintain an army of hundreds of people." The King of Knights did not pursue it further: "The ancient church area of Freya has been occasionally visited by Skaven and Beastmen in recent years, so an army is needed here."
Bertrand nodded and said nothing more. Davout took over the topic: "Your Majesty, the situation in Mousilon is special, especially in the Freya Ancient Church District in the east, where many immigrants from the empire gathered, and the locals
Relatively speaking, there are relatively few, and thanks to the blessing of my lady, there have been no major conflicts, but small conflicts have occurred from time to time. Patriarch Alfred once sought help from His Excellency Juan and others."
Immigration is also a big problem, Ryan frowned, and the King of Knights sighed softly.
There are advantages and disadvantages to immigration, but in the case of Musilon, there is no doubt that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, because there were only about 100,000 natives left in Musilon when Lane regained it, even if they immigrated from the empire
There are 300,000 people here, which is equivalent to 400,000 people. According to Ryan's survey, there is no pressure at all for two million people living here in Mussillon.
At this time, Lane was in great need of immigrants, because he needed people to farm, work, and labor.
One advantage of imperial immigration is that historically speaking, the imperial people and the Brittanians are of the same origin, that is, they are essentially the same race, which can greatly reduce the hostility and hostility between the two sides.
At the same time, the eight major churches of the old world are also spread here. Generally speaking, the differences in beliefs are not very big. They are easier to integrate and have a higher degree of recognition.
But even so, the Empire and the Brittanian race have so many contradictions and differences in history, so we know how difficult it is to solve this problem. Ryan thought to himself, fortunately, the Kingdom of Knights and the Empire now have a good relationship.
Coupled with their sufficient prestige and a series of victories, the internal conflicts have been alleviated. After a long time, most of these immigrants have identified themselves as Mousilon people. As long as they are well controlled in the future, the problems will gradually diminish.
At this point, the one whom Ryan admired the most was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his previous life.
Many people think that the founder of the dominant culture of the Han nationality is Qin Shihuang, but in fact it is not. The first emperor did achieve unification, but it was only in form. In the early Qin and Han Dynasties, the celestial dynasty still clearly distinguished between races.
The people of Qin, who are the people of Chu, who are the people of Qi, and which are the people of Yan? Whether Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms or the Six Kingdoms destroyed Qin has been debated for hundreds of years.
So when will national identity be truly realized and everyone will consider themselves Han and be proud of it?
It was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who attacked the Xiongnu in the north. After the unification was completed, everyone formed a self-identity. From then on, the concept of great unification and the dominant culture of the Han nationality were completely established. From this point of view alone, the contribution of this emperor
He was so great that it was impossible to look directly at him. He was worthy of the name of the Holy King, because he was the founder of the main cultural circle, belief, and spirit of this nation. After that, Jutang radiated these to the whole world.
Therefore, you should not be too diode-minded. If you say that Emperor Wu made poor decisions in his later years and the people were in trouble, you will immediately label him as a "XX black" and completely deny it. If you say that he did something well, you will immediately label him as a "XX fan" and completely affirm it.
(Ryan feels that the Emperor did something right. After the Emperor returned, he implemented a policy of not denying each other between the Great Crusade era and the 40K era after he entered the Golden Throne.)
The same is true in this world. When did the empire realize its self-identity? It was when Charlemagne led an army of twelve electors to completely defeat the Greenskin Frenzy at the Blackfire Pass and personally led an army to defeat the first Chaos Aeon.
After Morkar, the Chosen Unifier, it was after Ludwig the Savior defeated the second Chaos Eternal Chosen Anointed Aissa Kuvar in the Great Holy War.
When did Britannia realize its self-identity? It was after the twelve battles of Arthur's founding, and also after Lion completed the Eight Peaks expedition.
This is the truly clever way to unite the entire country. Ryan has always felt that some slogans are too cheap. It is okay for civilians to shout out loud. As the King of Knights, he cannot think like that. Why?
Brother, human race can be infinitely divided.
For example, in the origin of human races on Earth in Ryan's previous life, Indo-Europeans originated from the north of the Caucasus Mountains and were the origin of the West Asian and European races.
Indo-Europeans are divided into Aryans, Tocharians, Latins, Greeks, Anatolians, Armenians, Europas and more than a dozen people.
During the Roman Empire, people north of the Alps were collectively called barbarians by Rome.
The barbarians were divided into Germans, Skaers and Celts.
The Ska people are divided into East Slavs, West Slavs, and Yugoslavs.
Yugoslavs continued to be divided into Serbs, Croats, Slovenes, Montenegrins, Macedonians, Bulgarians, and Bosniaks.
You can subdivide it as much as you want, you can make it as detailed as you want. A bigger place can be divided into many countries, and then there will be an all-out war, and finally they will be finished together.
This is why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty were called sage kings. I won’t go into details here, you understand.
Our Knight King thought a lot in his head. He suddenly felt that the Emperor was the greatest. There were more than one million planets in the entire human empire, and there were still twenty-one...or twenty-two people with completely different personalities and preferences.
He was able to cope with the original Primarch (although he collapsed in the end). After Ryan became the king, he became more and more able to understand the hardships involved.
The army continued to advance along the road to the ancient church area of Freya. The King of Knights turned back and glanced at the luxurious carriage behind him, wondering what the Lake Fairy was saying to Sulia? She had been inside for a long time.
In the luxury carriage, the Lake Fairy, Sulia and Olika are having a play with three women. The Lake Fairy is sitting on the small bed in the carriage. Today she is wearing a rainbow honey butterfly Asul romantic floral dress.
skirt, long blond hair was tied up with a simple hairpin,
Under the long skirt are her slender legs wrapped in flesh-colored ultra-thin pantyhose. The goddess has finally married herself, but unlike before the marriage, the personality of the Lake Fairy changed drastically after marriage. She was very shy when getting along with Ryan.
Always take Lidya Su with you.
Sulia wore a set of Musilon Manor Royal Copper Gray Veined Dress, paired with black velvet opaque pantyhose and a white fox velvet waistcoat, showing off her graceful temperament and elegant manners. Olika was the most beautiful
Classic black and white maid outfit, white suspender stockings and black woolen jacket.
The goddess is playing military chess with the queen, Orica is the referee, and the military table is 1500 points. The fairy in the lake uses the wood spirit army, and Surya uses the Britannian army. As a result, the female knight cast two sixes in a row, named Ryan
The Knight King's chess piece instantly killed Lilith's Hero of Aralos, causing the goddess to smile and praise her for a good kill.
The Fairy of the Lake wants the ranger to kill a paladin, but Surya always rolls the dice with high numbers, resulting in Miss. Why can't this paladin die?
"Sulia, I wonder if you have been blessed by Ranold?" The fairy in the lake said casually with a smile: "You are so lucky today, I give up."
"It's just occasionally, and if I'm not wrong, madam, are you a casual soldier?" Sulia smiled at her good sister: "Of course, you can't defeat those who are seriously matched."
"Lilith~ I said, call me Lilith in private, aren't we good sisters?" The Lake Fairy stretched out an index finger and touched Sulia's exquisite face. Obviously, the Lake Fairy
Very satisfied with life after marriage, and the goddess
She knew very well that without Sulia's nod, she would not have had any chance. Sulia was the real daughter-in-law recognized by the Emperor, Angron, Fulgrim and the Birdman. If she had not taken the initiative to agree,
Let alone the wedding, she didn't even think about it.
"Lilith, even good sisters have a limit." Sulia said a little bit angrily: "You don't have to pull me up every time... and you have to make me and Ryan 'warm up' first.
ah."
"But... I don't know why, when I look at you and Ryan, I feel particularly..." The fairy in the lake blushed, and the goddess was very embarrassed: "So I always..."
"That's always a bit..." Lidya Su was also very embarrassed. The female knight thought for a while and took the initiative to hold the fairy in the lake's hand: "It's a bit embarrassing. Next time I will arrange for you and Ryan to be alone together.
?”
"Hmm." The fairy in the lake has never been able to adapt to the transformation from being a goddess who can flirt with her chosen champion to being a wife, which makes her still not sure how to face Ryan.
Orika, who was sitting next to her, couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. The dark elf was full of malice in her heart, thinking that she had been possessing Sulia all day before calling you. Over time, she developed a strange hobby, right?
That's fine, this is more convenient for my layout. Countless thoughts passed through Olica's mind. She was full of contempt for the fairy in the lake. With your level, you still have the nerve to fight me. I can't even fight with my foster father.
Called.
Let's watch the show, watch the show. The dark elf thought to himself that except for Sulia, the real wife, who couldn't move, the people in the backyard were not very good: "Madam, will this year's turkey banquet be held as usual?"
"If there are no accidents, yes, and Amelia will come this year." Sulia happily took out a gilded letter from her arms, from Nuer, the high-spirited nobleman Deta appointed by Ryan.
Lielang conveyed that this highly skilled diplomat was really having a good time in Nuer recently.
Shuiqi has become the most handsome boy in Nuer. His profound knowledge, elegant manners, profound etiquette, humor in language, ability to make jokes, and the lack of arrogance of elves make all Nuer nobles very welcome.
He, he is known as "Nur's Banquet Star".
Then this guy took the opportunity to obtain a large amount of information about Noor, and sent it to Ryan in a steady stream.
The chatting time was quite pleasant, and after a whole day of traveling, in the evening, the ancient church area of Freya was already in sight.
The appearance of the Old Guards first aroused strong alarm among the defenders, and then they were relieved to see the red, white and blue military flags, the golden "L" pattern surrounded by olive branches and the gilded flags of the places where the Old Guards fought.
With gold embroidered fonts, the guards did not dare to neglect and immediately opened the door without notifying Patriarch Alfred.
The ancient city of Freya appeared in front of Ryan. The King of Knights thought about it carefully. This was his first time to visit Alfred's residence.
The entire ancient city is monotonous in color, and most of them are simple wooden buildings, two-story buildings. There are not many residents here, but most of them are clean and tidy. You can see the signs of war hammers, twin-tailed comets and scales everywhere.
Obviously due to Alfred's status, the Justice Church has a high influence here.
Just behind the gate of the ancient city, Ryan noticed a large group of people listening to what a spirited young man from Kislev was saying. The King of Knights became interested, and he stretched out his hand to signal the old guards to stop and listen to him.
Kislev's boy stared and said excitedly: "We in Musilon are really safe. I really like this place in Musilon so much!"
“Red cabbage soup is not delicious!”
“The truffles with Mousilon are delicious!!!”
"Wow, our Mu Xilong's fire gun is really getting better and better. I give Mu Xilong a thumbs up!"
