Movie World I Am A King

Chapter 1220 Tragic John V

Golden autumn and October is the harvest season. In this season, you can see smiles on the faces of almost everyone in the village you pass by.

God bless, this year is a harvest year...Of course, this only refers to the people of the Duchy of Brittany...

Of course they have reason to be happy. Because the Duchy of Brienita is independent from France, it was not harassed by the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France... Therefore, people here can praise the blessing of the Harvest Goddess to their heart's content...

As for those refugees who came to Brittany? They will be stopped by guards at the border area...

No lord would like the displaced refugees during the war... These refugees not only represent the chaos of law and order and the robbing of the living space of the locals, but also the breeding of bandits and the spread of plague and disease...

And today, outside the castle of the Dukes of Brittany, the flags are unfurling — the ribbons are flying...  

Almost all the knights of the Duchy of Brittany have received an invitation from the Duke of Brittany, John V...

Here, today there will be the Harvest Knights, one to celebrate the harvest, and the other, perhaps John V, to flex his muscles to England and France, trying to stay away from the war of these two 927 behemoths...

The forty-three-year-old John V inherited his father's dukedom at the age of seventeen. As the second heir to the Monfort dynasty, he managed the entire kingdom conscientiously during his reign—however, the two It's hard to be small among big people. This sentence is not too much for John V.

Before he inherited the title, the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France had already begun. His father, John IV, did his best to maintain neutrality between Britain and France. In the prime of life, die forever...

John V still remembers now - when his father left, he held his hand tightly and said every word. "Long live Brittany..."

John V knew what his father meant...don't be merged into France but also don't be merged into the Kingdom of Ying...to maintain the independence of Brittany...

It's easy to say, but really hard to do...

The Duchy of Brittany itself is between the two, although Lord Victor, who has the title of the Iron Army of the Night, exists in the territory, and he also declared that he is willing to obey the orders of the Duke of Brittany...

However, a claim is a claim after all... At least, John V knew very well that he could not mobilize Victor...

But fortunately, Lord Victor's territory is located near the best natural port in Brittany, which imperceptibly hindered the British army's offensive, but-French pressure continued...

The Hundred Years' War has progressed to the present, and the two countries have signed the Treaty of Troyes, entering a brief truce...

In the Treaty of Troyes, France ceded the Brittany Peninsula without hesitation... However, the British army did not occupy it, because Victor occupied an excellent deep-water port and virtually resisted the The landing of the British was due to the raging werewolves in the north of the Duchy of Brittany...

At least Henry V is unwilling to use his precious soldiers to feed those inhuman things... Therefore, the Duchy of Brittany, at least in fact, still maintains its independence.

It's just that the current independence is a bit difficult to maintain...Because the French King Charles VI specially sent his special envoy after hearing that the Brittany Peninsula was not ravaged by those British troops...wanted to recruit from here Soldiers, and food...

That's why this time, the Autumn Harvest Knights Conference.

I just don’t know how much surprise this Autumn Harvest Knights Conference can bring me... The current Duke of Brittany, John V, is sitting on his throne, gently tapping the armrest of the throne with his fingers, quietly Quietly thinking about gains and losses...

"Your Highness, the knights are all ready...just waiting for you to announce the start of the match..." A waiter dressed in fancy clothes who looked like a clown approached John V lightly and whispered.

"Oh!" John V nodded, stood up... and walked towards the castle wall with his guards...

The whole knight competition was actually held outside the castle. As a military important place for nobles, the castle would not easily allow unknown people to enter, especially this kind of competition with mixed fish and dragons... It is absolutely impossible to hold it in the castle If the castle is captured by spies who sneak in, the owner of the castle will have no place to cry when the time comes.

As soon as John V stepped onto the top of the city, he saw his eldest daughter, Beatrice, standing on the top of the city, following his wife Belino and his youngest son, François, pointing to the knights below. Point...and a few comments from time to time.

"His Royal Highness is here—!" With the sharp and powerful shout of the clown-like waiter, the maids and guards standing on the top of the city and watching the scenery below lowered their heads facing John V.

"Father, you are here..." Beatrice bowed her head to her father, then straightened up, rushed to John V's side like a deer, grabbed her father's arm, and said happily: "Those guys down there are so interesting...some don't even have a pair of armor, they dare to call themselves knights, and even say they want to be my guardian knights..."

Little Francois also rushed over, ran to the other side of his father, and said: "There is another ridiculous guy who was so fascinated by what my sister saw, and fell headlong into the river, it's so funny... ..."

"Hehe..." Hearing his son's words, King John V couldn't help but smile and look at his eldest daughter. Beatrice, who is now fifteen years old, has inherited everything from him and his noble wife. The advantages are already blooming like a budding rose... "My Beatrice is the most beautiful rose in Brittany, and it won't be cheap for those low-born guys..."

"Father..." Beatrice lowered her head shyly, her face was blushing from her father's ridicule...

"Okay, Belle...Fran...Come to mother, your father still has something to do..." Duchess Belleno knew that her husband would announce the start of the knight contest, so she hurriedly summoned her children Come to your side and don't make trouble for your husband.

"Yes, mother..."

"Okay, mom..."

Beatrice and little Francois returned to their mother here obediently...

John V smiled slightly at his wife, and then walked quickly to the observation deck raised on the city wall...

Following his appearance, a loud and melodious trombone sounded, and all the knights gathered in front of the castle and their attendants, including those merchants who set up stalls here, and those peasants who came here to watch the excitement, all turned towards the city wall. The organizer of the knight competition and the owner of the Duchy of Brittany, Duke John V, bent his waist.

John V looked at the respectful attitude of these knights and the citizens outside the city, nodded in satisfaction, and then... said loudly: "I announce that the Autumn Harvest Knight Contest has officially started!!!"
