Chapter 132 Returning to the Royal Capital
Twenty days later, 20 Willenburg soldiers led by Julian camped near the capital. These soldiers were already more than half of Willenburg's forces.

After the Battle of Willenburg, nearly half of the original 2 regular army was lost, leaving less than 2000 soldiers, and there were still a large number of disabled soldiers. The fortress itself needed to defend against the barbarian remnants. The maximum power that can be mobilized.

The capital of the king, Saint-Dantier City, is located in the plain area in the middle of the mainland. This area has been a wealthy area since ancient times, and it is the "land flowing with honey and milk" coveted by the barbarians.

The river network here is dense, and there are many cities and villages dotted around the river. The army is stationed in the village closest to the royal capital upstream. Because the barbarian army is pressing down on the border, the entire village has been wiped out, and everyone can only see the deserted farmland. and empty houses.

This is the scene I saw along the way, full of scenes of war, plague and fleeing from famine. In contrast, the village with golden wheat fields when I first entered the dungeon was unbelievably beautiful, which is enough to see the impact of war on this How much the idyllic beauty of the world has been destroyed.

It is impossible for an army of 5000 people to march in secret, so it is easy to be discovered by the scouts sent by the king's capital. However, Mu Lan does not intend to let Julian play in a low-key manner. They are all helping refugees along the way. It can be exchanged for their followers. At the beginning, there were only 5000 people in the team, and now it has expanded to tens of thousands, marching towards the king's capital.

The army of His Royal Highness the Second Prince was stationed ten kilometers outside the capital. He declared that he would protect everyone in Northwar, no matter noble or manor owner, carpenter or slave labor. Get his shelter.

Both inside and outside the city were boiling, and almost all the refugees stranded outside the city gathered in Julian's team, while the taverns, hotels, casinos and red-light districts in the city were all spreading the glorious deeds of His Royal Highness, telling how this heroic prince was witty. Seeing through the tricks of the barbarians, he single-handedly went straight into the enemy camp and beheaded the barbarian chief under his horse.
After all, the regent was not in the right position. Before the old king died, he started a show of fighting against dissidents. Now that the orthodox heir is back, he also made a good gesture, expressing his respect for His Highness the second prince to return to the capital to report on his duties. In recognition of the outstanding meritorious service of Willenburg soldiers, a grand award ceremony will be held in the royal capital, and the whole city will celebrate and provide food.

Julian was naturally willing to take the soldiers to participate in the award ceremony, but he also got a condition that [-] soldiers had to be stationed in place, and only a few hundred representatives could be sent to participate in the ceremony.

This is what the regent means. Five thousand soldiers are not too many, but once they enter the city, they will pose a great threat to the capital. If only a few hundred people enter the city, no matter what the second prince thinks, it doesn't matter if they form an alliance or seize power. , is not up to him.

But what the regent did not expect was that Julian simply agreed, and the messenger reported that he did not hesitate. His Royal Highness agreed to the request, and a 300-member honorary team will enter the capital in two days.

"Is this prince having a bad brain?"

The thick and bearded man scratched his forehead, wondering: "He rushed back to the capital with great fanfare, and he only brought such a small force, isn't he looking for death!"

Qiao Yi was also thinking hard at the side. To be honest, he couldn't figure out what Rock Solid was doing. These people didn't accumulate strength in Willenburg, and rushed to the capital directly after the battle. Moreover, the difference in strength was so disparate, so they didn't want to die. what is it.

You must know that the second prince's uncle, Drahi, was the murderer who killed his brothers and sisters. He has been chasing him for several years. The old king's serious illness is also related to the regent. Being intercepted, how could such a conspirator allow the survival of a more orthodox heir than him. If he were the regent, he would definitely send people to surround the second prince's team immediately, directly eliminating future troubles forever.

"Do you want to directly attack the city, take down the capital and take back the throne?" The thick man said, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong. A reckless man like him would not do this. How did people conquer a thousand-year-old capital with 5000 troops and nearly a million inhabitants?Moreover, Silver Valley is not far away, and it is not impossible to send an army of tens of thousands of people to support it. No matter how he thinks it is wrong, he can only understand that it is as solid as a rock and the second prince's head is not working well.

"Don't you understand?" Song Yu smiled half-smile, and looked at the thick man mockingly, "Cheng Xun, your plus points really hit the muscles, squeezing out your walnut-sized brain."

Cheng Xun, a stout man, is used to such irony. He laughed at himself, "I don't understand you people who are twisting and turning, and Qiao Yi must not understand either. Don't just talk about me."

Qiao Yi looked at Cheng Xun, but didn't say anything, and continued to remain silent.

Song Yu waved his hand, "Forget it, I have to be straightforward with you rocks, what do you think the second prince came back with great fanfare for? Combined with the barbarian cavalry outside the city and the rumors in the city, it is as solid as a rock, and this is building momentum! "

"Building momentum?" Cheng Xun still couldn't understand.

"This is a conspiracy!" Song Yu's voice turned cold, "Everything they did was to let the second prince return to the capital in a fair and honest manner."

"But." Qiao Yi hesitated: "Even if the second prince can return to the capital, the regent only allows 300 people to follow him. Such an insignificant team can't stir up trouble in the capital."

"They've already stirred up a storm. Look at the image of the second prince among the people? He's a hero, a hero who stood up when the country was in crisis!" Song Yu's expression gradually became gloomy: "Only 2 people defeated hundreds of thousands The leader of the barbarian army, compared to the incompetent regent who is bound to be defeated in every battle, the image of the second prince is much more positive, not to mention that he is the orthodox heir."

"An orthodox, heroic, and benevolent prince returns to the war-torn capital. He will gain the support of the people, and even the regent will be a little bit afraid." Song Yu's voice gradually became softer, and finally he seemed to be talking to himself Said: "The rock-solid wise man is beyond my expectation, and such a conspiracy has made me unable to crack it"

"Things are getting interesting, I haven't met such an opponent for a long time."

Song Yu pondered for a moment, and said to Qiao Yi: "It's up to you, the second prince must die! I don't know if he has a magic weapon for protection, this time you have to be more cautious, use your trump card, and be sure to hit it Fatal, and the second prince will die outside the city."

Qiao Yi nodded, and then his figure gradually disappeared into the air.

Song Yu smiled: "I was actually disturbed by other people's thinking. In fact, the solution to this conspiracy is very simple. No matter how much he is supported by the people, as long as he becomes a dead person and dies at the hands of the barbarians, everything will be over."
