As a satellite city of the Royal Capital of Mattia, the city of Tours is very close to the Royal Capital.
After only two days of walking, the Life Knights arrived at the outskirts of the royal capital.
At this point, under the urging of the Western Province and in the expectation of the nobles of Bree County, the Life Knights finally advanced into the royal capital.
However, it was not the nobles of the royal capital who greeted the Life Knights, but the huge coalition forces of the royal capital.
The coalition forces include the Kingdom's most valiant and capable 46,000-strong Royal Capital Corps, more than 13,000 City Corps, and more than 20,000 temporary militiamen.
The coalition forces of nearly 80,000 people were divided into four combat groups. Except for one group that defended the royal capital, the remaining three combat groups built three lines of defense in sequence.
Since the Knights of Life forced back the Imperial Guard Corps, the nobles of the royal capital no longer regarded the Knights of Life as an arrogant local force.
Now in their eyes, the Knights of Life are the arbiters of political and military advantages.
Therefore, they temporarily put aside their factional disputes and formed a temporary military alliance to jointly resist the Life Knights, which only had more than 5,000 people.
The eldest prince Baze and the third prince Jos are like brothers with no conflicts, commanding their subordinates in the same room.
Because the prince's status is too noble, the nobles of the royal capital cannot restrict their right to self-defense, so they still wear gorgeous bayonet swords and exquisite flintlock pistols.
At this moment, they can even take out their firearms and kill each other instantly.
But they did not dare to do so, because the Knights of Life were not far away, and the consequence of killing each other would be to be judged and lose all honor and inheritance rights.
They were worried that the Knights of Life would imprison them in the castle under the slogan of loyalty and justice, and then elect a young king from a close branch of the royal family.
Therefore, the eldest prince Baze and the third prince Jos both know that no matter what the situation of the next war is, ensuring the survival of adult princes with strong legality is the royal family's top priority.
As long as the adult prince is still there, the Knights of Life who have been favored by the old king will not mess around.
Otherwise, the nobles and people of the entire kingdom will not recognize their legitimacy and reject the unrighteous god named the Lord of Life.
Strangely enough, most of the people in the Kingdom of Mattia turned out to be royalists, while scholars, businessmen, and nobles were parliamentarians.
Perhaps this is the limitation of insufficient productivity. Similar situations have also happened in Earth Star Europe.
"Jos, when the war breaks out, we will return to the palace as soon as possible and convene the noble council and the city council to witness the dignity of the royal power."
"Baze, the Knights of Life said Is it true, Father..."
"Joss, what's the use of saying this now?
They just need a partner.Excuses of law, truth or falsehood never matter, they have the power to modify the truth. ”
“I know, but I always feel like things can be better.
If the father is still alive, based on his prestige and favor, the Life Knights will heal his body and protect his royal authority.
Even if the father needs to pay more benefits to satisfy the appetite of the Life Knights, at least things will not be so bad. "
"Yes, if my father is still alive, there will be no military conflict between us, and the Knights of Life will not show their strength. ”
At this time, the eldest prince Baze and the third prince Jos couldn’t help but sigh that fate is really the most difficult factor to control. He can change the future of the entire kingdom by gently touching the thread.
"Maybe everything is not that bad, Lord Vader is still abiding by the rules of the kingdom.
It is difficult for the Life Knights under him to break through the defense of the 80,000 King's Capital Allied Forces. "
"I hope so. In fact, the Five Thousand Life Knights are not a big problem. The biggest problem is the Lord of Life who has been giving gifts.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
He has given far more gifts than his father. Lord Vader must resolutely implement the will of the gods, whether for faith or practical benefits. "
The two princes were having a friendly conversation, but their guards were extremely nervous.
The guards on both sides were worried that their princes would be attacked and lose their political support. In the end, their faction was just a mess.
"Your Highness, the time is almost up. The first combat group on the front line has met the Life Knights. We must evacuate to the palace as soon as possible.
Your safety will be guaranteed only in the presence of the Crown and noble groups, as well as citizen groups. "
"Your Highness, it's time for us to leave. The Life Knights' god-given artillery has a very long range, and they have a history of deliberately attacking the command room.
Please believe in the accuracy of the God-given weapons and the shamelessness of the Life Knights. For your safety, please do not stay on the front line. "
Prince Baze and Prince Jos looked at their respective guards officers and suddenly smiled at each other.
Ha, there is no absolute royal power. The crown is just to unite the group. symbol, royal power has always belonged to the group, not the individual.
If the nobles agree, they have a hundred ways to prevent the king from leaving the royal capital, and a hundred ways to send the king back to the palace.
Absolute royal power may only exist in the hands of the True God Church, and their Pope, who is connected to the gods, can dominate all believers.
"It's really time to go, I heard that they are commanding the Battle of Tours. General Sidney is still lying in bed groaning.
We cannot bet on the accidental damage rate of God-given artillery. ”
The two princes were at the GuardsUnder the escort of the regiment, he boarded the carriage and prepared to return to the safest palace in the entire royal capital.
But their convoy had not gone far when they heard a loud noise.
"What's wrong? Did the army mutiny? It shouldn't be. The Royal Army is the most loyal army. They can't be afraid of local armed forces."
Prince Baze opened the car window Looking back, his mind went blank for the next moment, and he subconsciously let out a meaningless lament.
He saw a majestic giant standing between heaven and earth. The giant was dressed in red robes and held high the Ring of Life, which symbolized the Church of Life.
The golden sun and the ring in His hand reflected each other, as if a being as great as the sun had appeared in the world.
The strange red flower blooms wildly, its petals are slender and dense, like bloody roads leading to the endless abyss.
The Life Knights cheered weird slogans and kept approaching the first combat group.
Endless murmurs continued to come from the red giant, and the overlapping words were like the cheers of the Life Knights.
"As you wish, as you wish, as I wish, as you wish..."
No matter how elite the army is at this moment, it cannot generate the will to fight. The so-called special lives are as insignificant as ordinary people.
The huge body did not limit the agility of the giant god. The land he walked on did not break even the smallest weeds.
Like a true god who came out of a myth, He came to this world unexpectedly.
He is like a phantom and does not affect all real life.
But his body was full of infinite power. Two red silk threads continued to extend forward, and with a slight flick, he pushed aside the soldiers blocking the way.
"He has come? He has come!"
