Black Iron Crown

Chapter 666: Duke's righteous people

On January 12 of the 33rd year of the Empire, a day has passed since the first confrontation between the cavalry of the two sides. The army of the Kingdom of Bukerdern stayed and camped 50 kilometers south of the imperial capital.

   This march came, the news that Grand Duke Rainer had conquered the imperial capital and hanged the pseudo-Emperor Carter has been known to everyone in this army.

King Sartley was naturally extremely angry, not only because of profit, but also because Lena hanged his grandson. Although as a king, he cares more about profit, but he is not indifferent to the fireworks. Stone, but human beings with real feelings.

   However, he did not affect his judgment because of his anger. Since his grandson has died, there is no need for him to continue the rapid march. He must ensure the strength of his soldiers to meet the upcoming war.

   In the big tent of King Sartli, a follower brought in a Kalda light rider.

After talking to the translator Chili Guru for a while, the translator said to King Sartli: "Your Majesty, there is a large and very tightly guarded camp 30 kilometers in front of us. It should be the military camp of the Grand Duke Rainer's army! "

   Although Rainer conquered the capital and hanged the little emperor, King Sartley did not agree with Rainer's emperor status, so his translators all catered to him calling Rainer the Great Duke of the North.

  Rainer ordered his army to camp outside the city in order to be ready for a decisive battle with the Kingdom of Bukden at any time.

  Although there are helpers in the Kingdom of Bukerdern, they are far inferior to their own in terms of the quantity and quality of the army.

  Under such circumstances, why would he still huddle in the imperial capital to fight a war of defense?

   Now that he has just won the throne, a hearty victory is the best way to humerus status and inspire people.

   King Sartley froze for a moment, and then fell into contemplation.

"Does he... he wants to fight with me?" King Sartley became more affirmed of his own thoughts. The opponent's strength was not weak. Combine it with the situation in which "Grand Duke Rainer" just won the throne, and proceed to the front. The head-to-head decisive battle is a matter of course.

   Then, King Sartli smiled openly and said: "You send someone to the camp to submit the contract and set the date of the decisive battle!"

   King Satli finally chose the traditional fighting method of the Redka nation, that is, a decisive battle was agreed.

   Actually, he had no other way. He had discovered four days ago that there were only one vacant house in the nearby village, but there was not even a single figure in it.

   All the food supplies and livestock are all missing. King Sartley understood that this was Rainer's arrangement.

   Although it is not a customary convention, it is not common for the lords to see their people and property lose and move the people away. This is a normal thing.

   But for King Sartly, this is not a good thing, because it means that his army can't get a lot of supplies in a short time.

   Although he had prepared a lot of food before he came, and he had looted supplies when he passed the village along the way, but after all, this army had been marching quickly, and the looted materials were not a lot.

   Therefore, when they arrived in the imperial capital, they had only enough food for six months.

   It’s not that the Kingdom of Bukerdern lacks food and all kinds of materials, where it is located on the sea route, and because of the weather, agriculture is also good, so the price of food is very low.

   If it were not for the limitation of transportation capacity, King Sartley would even want to bring a year's consumption.

   King Sartley’s letter of engagement was sent to the imperial army’s barracks. After receiving the engagement, Earl Leyland immediately sent the letter to the imperial capital.

  Rainer looked at it carefully, and was a little bit dumbfounded.

   The language and wording in this book is quite unreasonable, almost offensive, and it counts the many "crimes" of Reiner.

   The most serious thing is that Rainer rebelled for no reason and killed the king. King Sartley brought a large army to uphold justice for all the Redka people.

  Leiner didn’t take it to heart after seeing it, so that it could be regarded as a fart, and after all the dust settled, Lena would say whatever he wanted. This is the case with the so-called winners and losers.

  Rainer immediately wrote a letter in reply. While cursing, he also affirmed the date of the engagement.

  The official date of the war was set on January 18, the 33rd year of the Empire, which is six days later.

   King Sartley felt that his soldiers were too exhausted to march all the way, so he delayed the decisive battle a little bit, and did not choose to start a battle with Rainer right away.

The same is true for Reiner, because the army he convened in the north is going south, and it is estimated that it will take three or four days to reach the imperial capital. An extra 6,000 troops is a very big advantage. Reiner doesn’t mind giving the opponent a breather. chance.

In this way, the two sides fell into a weird period of calm starting on January 12, 33rd of the Empire. The military camps of the two sides were 30 kilometers away from the oil zone, but within a day's journey, there was no movement or conflict. occur.

  Even the sentry cavalry on both sides just monitored each other's actions back and forth, and there was no battle between the scouts.

   At the same time, the Northern Territory was already in a boiling state.

   Since the news of the recruitment of militiamen in the Flange Feature spread, some gossips began to circulate among the residents of the north.

   What Western countries have formed a hundred thousand jihadists will destroy Grand Duke Lena ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ kill all the people in the north.

   Or the Northern Territory Great Justice is facing an unprecedented crisis, so people quickly flee this land to a certain survival path.

   The news about the battle on the front line has attracted the attention of almost all residents of the North, and countless residents who care about His Majesty the Grand Duke are concerned about the victory or defeat of this war.

   Therefore, these rumors that had just been spread and were arrested by Logan at their source were spread instantly, as if they had grown wings.

   This one can be regarded as detonating the emotions of the residents of the north, and the entire north is like a boiling hot soup, surging.

   Just as some bad-hearted people were gloating and preparing to watch the show, something unexpected happened.

   The residents around Mekalong City boiled up, they gathered together spontaneously and came to the central heart of the Grand Duchy of the North.

   "Help Your Majesty to tide over the difficulties!"

   "Your Majesty is invincible!"

   "I want to join the army! I want to help the Grand Duke!"

   "Kill all the bad guys!"

   "Be loyal to your Majesty the Grand Duke!"

   This group of residents were wearing thick cotton-padded clothes, their cheeks and ears were flushed with cold, they shouted loudly outside the city of Mecalon. The emotions were so excited that it was difficult to control them, and they raised their arms loudly and willingly.

   Even Frant, who was preparing to give birth in the Castle of Mekaron, was alarmed by such a voice.
