Above the Seven Towers

Before the outbreak of the war in the Sevileby, the capital, there was a lot of depression. The war that swept the mainland has not yet spread to this place, but almost every household in the city has been involved in all forces to participate in this war.

As the war continued, not only did the city's residents and merchants decrease a lot, but materials began to become scarce.

In a secret room in the palace, Queen Laura and her most dear ministers held a meeting, where her teacher and commander of the Imperial Guard Salmeron were present, and there was the Empire Prime Minister Francis Duke Ke, Duke Landinez, Commander of the City Guard, Chief Royal Mage, and Julian, the Lord of the Cracking Tower.

As usual, Duke Landinez reported the latest situation: "Hawval, Duke of the Rock Fort, once again defeated in the Lygon River Plains. His army was twice that of Count Carlos, and two marquises assisted, but He was still overwhelmed by the Earl ’s berserker. When he fled back to the city of Bevilla, 40% of his troops were injured and killed. Now he shrinks in the city and dare not come out. "

Queen Laura rubbed her frowning brows with her fingers. Since the outbreak of the war, her power began to retreat, she suffered from headaches. Every time she heard who had defeated again, her eyebrows would ache: "Should we support Barona, the eldest son of the Duke of Rock Fort at that time? Although his younger brother was honest and easy to control, his military ability was really "

Salmeron said: "Your Majesty, I would like to say a fair word. I can gather the team and escape to a city more than thirty kilometers away when the main lineup is washed away by the mad warrior. Skillful.

You may not have seen packs of mad warriors charge, that kind of scene is really not something ordinary soldiers can bear. Not even the Empire's Beast Legion. At that time, the army of mad warriors trained by the Arias family for the empire, many times on the eastern battlefield, had shaken a larger number of beast legions, and the victory was still the majority. "

"Then you have any suggestions now, Beverilla is not a big city. As long as this city is broken, the rock fortress in the rear will be dangerous. If Count Carlos wins the rock fortress, he will be able to come to the capital in a week .

What's more, the army of the earl's daughter also fought happily in the south. Several barons and viscounts have been annihilated by them. If they can't stop her, she will soon break Lagos City and the Alonso clan. "

Duke Landinez said: "According to the latest information, the Duke of Lagos, Jose Fina, was under siege."

"What are you talking about? There are few mad fighters in Celinda's army? Why can the Duchess be defeated?" The Queen asked.

The Duke of Landines said: "Your Majesty, they entrapped many young and middle-aged residents along the way and burned their villages and towns directly. They forced those people to survive and had to join their army, then they would rush them To attack the next city, many of these people were confused and dead, but those who survived and fought a few battles, they could really raise their swords and kill people. So now Celinda ’s army is numerically It has exceeded the number of Count Carlos ’troops."

"It's despicable, treat my people like this, what if such a person lays down a place? They are just a group of locusts." Queen Laura said.

Duke Francisco said: "Because of this, we will suffer in many places. The Arias family was originally a lunatic. The madman was crazy for a while, but it must not last long."

Duke Landinez said: "Your Majesty, the good news is that in the northern battlefield, Earl Bellano has fought several consecutive victories, pushing our front line with the Empire more than ten kilometers north."

Queen Laura said: "The good news has come from there these days. But the Blackwood Pass has been lost. If Olgas can be as loyal and belligerent as Bellano, there is no blackwood that has changed hands for hundreds of years. Guan, how could it fall into the hands of the Empire? Now that the Empire of the Western Front might attack Bellano to the east, then our battle will be difficult to fight. "

Duke Francisco said: "According to the information we have obtained, this is unlikely. Those Chinese make the imperial wary, and the troops of the imperial front may attack the Chinese towns first. And China People are obviously not prepared to let go of the Empire. After all, the attack on Heimuguan has caused them great losses. If these two enemies can fight each other, it is really a good thing for us. "

"Hopefully the God of Nature can protect us in this matter." Queen Laura said.

When the two Dukes had finished all the intelligence, Queen Laura found that the situation was getting irresistibly worse overall. After everyone left, she left her teacher Salmeron alone, and the queen sat in her place, thinking for a long time with her hand on her cheek, and then said: "If you go on like this, I really only I can go that way to compromise with the temple. "

Salmer Long said: "You must think clearly that once you let the temple intervene in the kingdom's affairs, we will never have the opportunity to drive them away. Then you and your descendants will be like those kingdoms and empires in history In the same way, always face the interference of theocratic power on the kingship. "

"But if you do n’t do this, you may be the one who is out. Just now, these people, everyone has their own plans. When things are irreversible, I believe that many of them will have the idea to tie me to the Empire Or Chinese.

Huh, do you know? Someone has secretly aired me, saying that Emperor Alfred is a very handsome and powerful man. If I combined with him, I would create the most powerful country on the continent. "

"How did you respond?"

"I found a conviction to exile him." Queen Laura sighed. "At least the Temple of Nature is much better in this respect. They are like a reputable businessman. As long as I am willing to pay, they will help I won this war. At least those empires and kingdoms in history told me that I am not the first, and the ending is not too bad, is it?

Even the addition of the Temple of Nature has helped me to balance those unruly nobles who have not yet obeyed me. I don't think the royal family will be worse off than it is now. "

Salmeron pondered for a moment and nodded, "I believe you will make the most appropriate judgment. Your Majesty, please let go. I will always stand by your side no matter what."

"Wait a minute. The timing is a little bit behind."
