Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 697 Order and Response

In the palace, a group of palace guards wearing bright yellow armor came out of the dust. They had to spread the news of the new king's enthronement and the latest orders to everywhere as quickly as possible.

Most of the palace guards who delivered the order were happy.

It is always a good job to pass orders out of the palace. No matter how domineering nobles are, as long as they have not rebelled, they have to give the Charlemagne royal family some face.

No matter what, they had to eat and drink well to entertain these palace guards who sent orders, and sometimes they could even get some bits and pieces of property.

He would even be offered as a grandpa. This kind of good job has to be contested every time.

It's just that this time it's an order for the new king, so the situation has changed slightly.

Those who sent orders to nobles and officials everywhere were fine. After all, the fourth prince, Paley, had a group of fans and was quite powerful. He was originally a popular choice for the heir to the throne.

Even if there is dissatisfaction secretly, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of the fourth prince, he will not dare to confront openly, at least the safety of the order is guaranteed

But the people who were sent to send orders to Cress City and the Northern Army were miserable.

Going to Krystal City, recalling the eldest prince from the army is outrageous enough, and asking the other party not to lead the army, Qingqi Jiancong rushed back within ten days to participate in the new king's enthronement ceremony.

Even the traffickers on the pier knew how outrageous such an order was.

The eldest prince was in a better mood, he didn't accept orders, let him back, he couldn't escape the crime of failing to deliver an order.

If the eldest prince happens to be in a bad mood, it is not impossible to kill him directly to sacrifice the flag.

Delicious food and drinks, and bribes of small and medium property, they are all out of the question.

As for where to go to the Northern Army to order them to withdraw from the capital?

It's also not a good job to provoke a bunch of arrogant soldiers.

After most of the palace guards who sent the order dispersed, there were only two teams left who looked at each other and smiled wryly. In the end, one team headed south towards the Northern Army's garrison, and the other team headed east towards Cress. away from the city.

Nancheng

Northern Army Garrison

The army built a huge army camp around the portal connected to the abyss.

A city within a city was completely built in the royal capital.

The mansion that had been reduced to ruins during the battle was now covered with spikes.

The outer wall of the military stronghold made of wood and stone is full of mechanical crossbows.

Even Beidi brought several yohei steam war crossbows.

After these iron bumps have been improved many times, their stability has been guaranteed, and the power driven by steam is several times stronger than that of the Shenwei crossbow.

If several planes lock at the same time, the dragon can be smashed into a sieve.

Unfortunately, the shortcomings are also obvious, it is still too heavy, and the shooting direction is not easy to adjust, most of the time it can only be used on city walls and large warships.

However, once the crossbow is placed there, the densely packed shooting ports and arrows alone are enough to make the enemy terrified.

Inside and outside the military camp, soldiers of the Northern Army wearing blue and white cloth masks patrolled back and forth, maintaining a high degree of vigilance even in the capital.

From time to time, there are giant dragons patrolling past in the sky, full of murderous aura.

A group of golden armored palace guards appeared on the outskirts of the military stronghold.

Originally, the palace guards flying the royal banner should be able to run rampant in the capital. Even the blood nobles who were dissatisfied with the Charlemagne family before did not dare to blatantly block the actions of the palace guards.

However, the Northland Army only knew the three-arrow banner of the Hunter family, but not the royal banner of the Charlemagne family.

The team of palace guards who sent the order was ordered to stop by the Northern Army on the tower before they approached the military stronghold for more than 200 meters.

"Forbidden ahead, no matter how close you are, you will be killed!"

These words were not a verbal threat. The moment the soldiers on the observation tower spoke, several Shenwei crossbows around them began to adjust their angles.

The soldiers in charge of the operation even took out the special arrows for the Shenwei crossbow and put them on the arrow slots, looking eager to try.

If the palace guards below with the king's flag dare to continue to rush forward, they will shoot the opponent into a sieve.

"Stop, stop!"

The captain of the palace guard army headed by him was very tactful, and instead of continuing to move forward firmly, he immediately reined in the horse and stretched out his hand to signal the men behind to stop.

The captain of the palace guard was named Balaklevi, and he was born in the royal capital.

For hundreds of years, his ancestors also followed Aragorn to fight orcs, but in his generation, the title has long since had nothing to do with him, and he just has a surname.

To join the Palace Guard Army, one must rely on talent and hard work to accumulate step by step from the King's Capital Knight Academy, plus a little bit of luck to get to this point.

With the strength of the knight rank and the status of a palace guard officer, Barak will be given some face no matter where he is.

It was the first time he was out of the palace to do business for being so abruptly humiliated by the Northern Army.

The faces of the young palace guards behind them clearly showed expressions of resentment, but they were honest and did not dare to move in the face of the Northern Army with a murderous look on their faces.

After appeasing his subordinates, Barack calmed down his mood a little and replied:

"We are the palace guards of the messenger, bringing the order of the new king!"

"The new king?"

The intelligence capabilities of the Northern Army in the capital are not strong, and the disturbance in the palace came very suddenly. At this time, the Northern Army stationed near the portal did not know the specific news.

However, since it was someone from the palace, there was no need to stop him.

"Put the hanging basket! Let people come in!"

On the military camp, several hanging baskets were lowered, and the corners of Barak's eyes twitched a few times.

After revealing his identity, the opposite party didn't even want to open the door, and even put a hanging basket down.

Hearing this tone, it was not intentional embarrassment, but that he really didn't take the royal family seriously.

"Go, get off the horse!"

The Northern Army, within the big tent.

Taize sat high on the main seat. As a savage, Taize had an outstanding physique. He was more than two meters tall and covered in sinews.

Taize is the most defensive existence among system heroes, with strong command ability, but his personal strength is not outstanding.

The combat power of the sky level is not weak when entering the abyss battlefield, but it is only an elite unit, which has little impact on the battle situation. In the end, Li Cha stayed in the camp to guard the portal connecting the two planes .

There was no need for Taize to disappoint Li Cha, and he built the entire camp like an iron bucket in a short period of time.

Even ordinary saint-level powerhouses can't get around the giant dragons patrolling the sky and the pile of giant crossbows that have no shooting dead ends.

"Will you repeat the new king's order?"

"The Northern Army is a foreign army. According to the rules, it should not be stationed in the capital. It should be withdrawn as soon as possible!"

"Clang!"

"It's against you!"

When Barak repeated the order again, Tazer just looked weird.

He really couldn't figure out what kind of trick this new king, who had a good relationship with Lord Li Cha, got the Northern Army to withdraw from the capital.

However, Quill, who was a little irritable, directly attacked the case, pulled out his knight sword with a "clang", and pointed it at Barack and his party.

I don't think there's anything wrong with him saying that Paley reversed the wording.

Quill is a representative of the local generals under Richard's command, and his combat power is much worse than that of a bunch of system heroes.

But with the accumulation of resources in the Northland, Quill, who was originally talented, also had the high-level strength of the earth. Before the magic power recovered, he had almost touched the ceiling of knight practice.

Coupled with the fact that he led troops to kill in the wilderness all the year round, the bloody smell on his body couldn't be removed no matter what.

Ordinary people might be scared to the ground by Quill's yelling.

After being pointed at by Quill, coupled with the unkind eyes in the big tent, Barak was also heartbroken, and he didn't kneel down immediately, which was to maintain the royal family's last bit of dignity in front of the Northern Army.

"Yes, my lord, this is His Majesty Paley's order."

"Well, I see."

Taize stroked his hand and signaled Quill to be calm and calm. Quill knew he had lost his composure, so he pleaded guilty and sat back in his seat.

Barack below was at a loss.

What does you know mean?

He had sent the order so many times, and this was the first time he heard such an answer.

"Then, my lord, when will the Northern Army..."

"How the Northern Army will act depends on Lord Richard's order."

"Please go back!"

Although Taize looked very rough, but his character was not domineering. Although the order sounded too outrageous, he did not embarrass Barack who delivered the order.

When Barak heard that Taize was planning to see off the guests, he withdrew from the big tent with a sense of relief.

Anyway, the order has been conveyed, whether the Northern Army listens or not is none of his business, and if he stays to be an eyesore, he is really afraid that if any of the arrogant soldiers of the Northern Army can't hold back, they will directly kill them all. Chopped...

"This royal capital has undergone major changes."

"Order the army, strengthen your guard during this time, without my order, not a single bird is allowed to come in!"

"Yes, my lord!"

royal palace

Paley sat in an extremely inconspicuous room, thinking about something. After becoming the new king, there was no smile on his face that got what he wanted.

"Your Majesty, the main nobles in the capital and the two prime ministers have all expressed their support for your ascension to the throne as the new king."

"It's just that the Northern Army has no plans to leave Jinlongdu. The palace guard who sent the order said that they must wait for Lord Richard's order."

"Hey, no one can command this Northern Army except our brother-in-law."

Paley had expected the reaction of the Northern Army, and he didn't show any anger.

He waved his hand and let his men exit the room.

"You heard it too, it's not that I don't want to send the Northern Army away, but that I can't command them at all."

At some point, a figure in a white robe appeared in the room.

"It's okay, I just want to give them a chance to survive."

"Perhaps, the coming of a great era always requires some blood."

"hey-hey"

"Should I call you General Mixiu, His Majesty the Pope, or something else?"

Paley smiled noncommittally, stared at the familiar face and asked abruptly.
