I Will Be The Crowned King

Vol 3 Chapter 30: White Tower Rebellion

Half an hour later, An Sen with a complicated expression walked out of the cell slowly; Fabian, who was guarding outside the door, moved his eyes slightly, and immediately retracted the pocket watch in his palm into his jacket pocket.

"Let him go." An Sen looked at Chenxi Bingfeng under the clear sky, and said without turning his head:

"If he wants to bring anything or a 'companion', he promises not to disturb anyone, and try to keep a low profile."

Anson thought about it for a long time, and finally decided that it would be better to let the novelist go.

In addition to temporarily not wanting to have much involvement with the "Truth Society" behind him, more importantly, he did not consider that once the form of the war became clear, the Church of Order might intervene.

If the church is really determined to mediate, and even stand upright on the side of the Iser elf, then things will be complicated.

The only excuse for the entire "Isir Punishment War" is that Maurice Périgord, the master of Isir in Clovis, was an old-fashioned spellcaster - this kind of reason seems very reluctant to say that it is arrogant, but the actual purpose is to Clovis hopes to open up a second battlefield, use a surprise attack to kill Iser, a hidden danger supported by the empire, and make a blood transfusion for himself.

At present, the upper elves of Iser are still full of confidence, and they feel that Iser, who believes in the Ring of Order and has the bonus of imperial armed forces, has become "great again", and is not afraid of Clovis, who is pressed and beaten by the empire.

But once the form of the war is clear, the Elf King Iser, who is eager to stop the loss, will definitely do everything he can; if there is a church to mediate, or even take the initiative to endorse Iser, Clovis really can't even find an excuse.

The war will end in two months, with the support of the orderly church, and Clovis will not even think about getting much indemnity. Clovis's economy is now also controlled by Luther Franz's Clovis Cathedral. Loan backed.

As for whether the Iser Elf will be supported by the church, and will the Church of Order take the opportunity to participate in the secular disputes in the world of Order... These Ansen don't care, he only cares that if the war ends so soon, his "basic plan" "It will be over before it accumulates.

The recruited soldiers will be dismissed, the "Storm Division" designation they just obtained will be erased, and the covenant with Thun will be broken.

With the title of colonel, there is a high probability that he will also be driven back to Clovis City by the army because of his "Franz family" background and continue to be unemployed at home.

So this war must not end so soon!

Not only can it not end, it must continue. It is best if Iser can grit his teeth and sell his blood to the end, so that he has the opportunity to "brush enough experience points" and let the newly born storm division really grow up.

Only by holding a capable army and leading the entire "Isser Punishment War" can the army's top leaders not be able to obliterate their achievements in this war.

From this point of view, Draco Wilts is right, and this time he is really in line with the interests of the truth behind him.

Well, at least for now...

"Then I'll wait until the Stormmaster is about to leave before releasing Draco and leave with us—so it won't attract anyone's attention."

Fabian, who understands it, suggested.

"Can."

An Sen nodded absently: "You can arrange it."

"Yes."

Fabian, who was about to turn around and leave, suddenly stopped and looked at Anson carefully: "Then... do you still need to tell Adjutant Carl Bain about this?"

"He doesn't need to know that."

"……clear."

After dismissing a novelist who was likely to cause trouble for himself again, Anson returned to his room in the fortress - taking advantage of the time before the entire army assembled and set off, he had to write two letters to Clovis city.

The first letter was sent to Miss Sophia Franz-according to the agreement between the two, as long as the city of Eagle Point was captured, he must send her all the diaries during this period, and write a general outline by the way. .

Looking at his messy diary, An Sen, who was about to pick up the pen, was suddenly stunned, not even noticing the ink dripping onto the paper.

Because I write a diary every day, and I like to put the diary inside my shirt, and I have been fighting in the wild recently... The result is that the last few pictures are not only unrestrained and unrestrained, but they have been completely blurred to the point that no one can read them except myself. To the point of understanding.

After hesitating for a minute, Anson quietly stuffed Leon Francois's notes into the envelope - after all, this is the whole process recorded from the perspective of a bystander, which is more objective than what he wrote.

After writing, he folded the letterhead and put it away, Anson took out another piece of letterhead to write the second letter—this one was sent to the Rune family:

"Dear Miss Thalia August Rune:

I am honored to tell you that I have drawn the first cross-border order for the August Armoury Factory under the name of the Rune family; the buyer is the most powerful Grand Duchy of Thun in the Seven Cities Alliance; please gather at least as soon as possible. Can supply a full army of light weapons equipment, the specific situation is like this..."

"...At present, the army has captured Eaglehorn City and opened up the communication line from Clovis to the Grand Duchy of Thun. If all goes well, the order will arrive in the capital soon. I hope this 'little surprise' can make you happy. satisfy."

"In addition, during the battle with the Elf Elf, I inadvertently heard from a prisoner that an organization of the old gods called the 'Thirteen Council' seemed to be preparing to overthrow the current Elf King, and let Iser return to tradition.”

"I don't know much about this Old God organization, and I don't know whether to support or avoid contact with them. I hope you can give me an answer.

Your fiancé, Anson Bach. "

………………

When the southern legion that controls Eaglehorn City is stepping up its efforts to repair the city's fortifications, build positions, and prepare to face the Iser Guards, the Grand Duke of Thun of Golden Rock, Claude Francois, is staring at Aisne. The urgent report sent by Reis, the gloomy expression is hard to see the extreme.

His biggest vassal, the Earl of White Tower City, Thern Brand, rebelled with his army and territory!

The whole incident can be traced back to a few days ago. The visiting Iser elf messenger came to contact the lords of the Seven Cities Alliance with the order of the elf king to fulfill the covenant between the two parties.

Claude Francois detained the messenger Mathias, and asked the other party to hand over the work of contacting the Seven Cities Alliance to himself, promising the other party that "Thun and Iser will always be an unbreakable alliance." .

The abacus of the Archduke Thun played very well.

In the battle of Eagle Point Pass, although Eagle Point City had not yet fallen, the stubborn nature of Iser's elf had begun to be exposed; the army built according to the improvement of the imperial system did not seem to be an opponent of the Clovis.

Of course, even if the Iser elf is really defeated, the Grand Duke Thun is not in a hurry to fall to Clovis immediately; he is very clear that relying on Thun's capital alone is not enough to negotiate with Clovis on an equal footing, and he must With the help of the power of the entire Seven Cities Alliance.

So while he appeased Iser's messenger and made the other party believe that "the whole of the land is rapidly uniting", he kept in contact with several allies who had the best relationship with Thun, and told him that "Isel is losing the war". The intelligence was privately disclosed to the other party, and he said that Thun was willing to "equally negotiate" with Clovis on behalf of the Seven Cities Alliance, hoping to get their support.

In this way, relying on the threat of Clovis and the unity of the Seven Cities Alliance, Grand Duke Claude Francois, sandwiched between the two, can gradually become the nominal leader of the Seven Cities Alliance.

However, there was a "slight" deviation from this particularly perfect plan.

The messenger of the Elf King Ysir, ran away.

At first, the ambassador believed Archduke Thun's words, and entrusted the work of contacting the Seven Cities Alliance to the other party. He relaxed a little in Jinshi City and waited for the upcoming meeting.

But soon he felt something was wrong.

At first, the Grand Duke Thun also allowed him and his delegation to come and go freely around the Golden Stone City. It didn't take long for his scope of activities to be limited to the Golden Stone City; later, without the consent of the Grand Duke, he was not even allowed to leave. palace.

Finally... During a chat with a certain maid, I saw that the other party was wearing an elf-style bracelet; the messenger asked casually, and the maid happily said that it was a gift from a relative living in Arkad Castle. Here, there is a group of Clovis people selling cheap Iser elf goods, everything from daily necessities to guns and ammunition...

So the elf messenger knows everything.

In the evening of the same day, Archduke Thun learned that the elf had made him disappear. The guard in charge of monitoring him became a fool who could only count from 1 to 1000 and then back again.

This elf ambassador surnamed Mathias is actually a dark mage who hides deeply!

It's not over yet... The elf ambassador who escaped didn't flee to Isir or another Seven Cities kingdom as he guessed—or maybe he found the way to either direction , have been blocked by the army of the archduke - but the vassal of the archduke Thun, the White Tower City of Earl Thern Brand.

The reason is very simple, because the Brand family of the ruler of White Tower City and three-quarters of the people in this territory are of Iser elf blood!

In the past few hundred years, the once prosperous Iser Elf Kingdom has tried to expand to the south of the Dawn Mountains more than once; after many failures, especially the establishment of Eagle Horn City, it has turned to infiltrate and emigrate through various means. Increases the influence of Ysir in the Fargod.

The White Tower City is the legacy left by several generations of Iser elf kings trying to conquer the vast land.

Although it is a vassal of Thun, but because of its own blood, the Brand family is closer to the Elf Kingdom of Iser; in the past few decades, the Grand Duke of Thun is also happy to use the Earl of Brand to befriend Iser , for the principality to gain more benefits from the alliance.

And now this former advantage has finally become the biggest trouble.

"At present, Earl Brand has controlled and blocked his territory. He has 4,000 troops to defend the White Tower City. At the same time, he constantly sends a small group of cavalry with letters from the elf messenger, trying to force through the border of the duchy."

In the empty hall, Henares looked at Archduke Thun worriedly: "My brother Count Arkad also received a letter from Count Brand at the first time, and immediately sent someone to send a letter. The urgent report rushed to the castle of Count Pascal and told him that the Count of Brand had betrayed the Francois family, and let him wait for the news calmly."

"Also one of Thun's three major vassals, although Count Pascal has a good relationship with the Brand family, since he and Arkad are both a collateral branch of the Francois family, he will never betray Thun. "Henares said solemnly:

"This way... it should be able to temporarily seal the turmoil within the territory of Baita City."

Claude Francois nodded slightly, and his expression finally eased a little:

"If we want to suppress the rebellion, how many troops can we mobilize now?"

"Counting the knights of the Arkad family, there are about 12,000 people." Henares hesitated:

"But my brother asked me to speak, and I hope you don't resort to force immediately - the subjects of Thun don't know what happened, only that it was Earl Brand's rebellion."

"But once you really make up your mind to mobilize the entire force of Thun to suppress the rebellion, the story of the elf messenger will spread to Thun immediately."

"what do you mean……"

"The vast majority of Thun people still think that Iser is our ally and Clovis is our enemy; if your private covenant with Clovis is suddenly exposed, not only will Thun be thrown into chaos, but you will also Will be regarded as a traitor by the Seven Cities Alliance!"

Henares' reminder instantly made Grand Duke Thun shudder.

"Messages must be blocked as soon as possible!"

The sobered Claude Francois's voice trembled slightly: "Tell your brother and Count Pascal, and let them bring the troops of their respective territories to block all roads around White Tower City, and no one can let them out. "

"It was said to the public that it was because I rejected the proposal of the eldest daughter of the Brand family to my son. Thern Brand was dissatisfied and wanted to force me to agree to him by rebelling~www.readwn.com~ Immediately assembled the Grand Duke Guards, I want to conquer Baita City in person!"

"Yes!" Henares respectfully rubbed his chest and saluted, turned and walked outside the palace.

In the next second, before he could leave the hall, a dusty knight rushed into the hall and slammed down on one knee before the steps of the Grand Duke's seat:

"Eagle Point Pass urgent report - the Clovis people have captured Eagle Point City, and the 40,000 Iser Janissaries are trapped east of the pass!"

"Anson Bach, the deputy commander of the Southern Legion, is leading two thousand people from the Storm Division to the Golden Rock City, and has now arrived at the Earl of Arkad!"

"what?!"

Henares and Grand Duke Thun were startled at the same time, and the two standing on the steps and in front of the gate looked at each other for a moment, and saw the indescribable surprise in each other's eyes.

The fire of war ignited under the ice peak of the morning light is attacking the vast land south of the mountain with an unstoppable momentum.

No one is spared.
