Proof of the Sun King

PS. Thank you for your suggestions. Many readers have given me a lot of opinions. Let me answer them here. Many readers feel that there is a problem with the rhythm of my recent writing. I admit that the plot of Marienburg is a little delayed. I will speed up the pace and advance the plot, but I will continue to write according to the line I want. ,.

PS2. I want to say that Warhammer itself is a small minority, and the main reason for writing this is to generate electricity through love. I wrote this book very carefully. To put it bluntly, if the writing method is not close to the popular, the people who read my book may really be very interested. There are very few, some readers feel that the recent plot is boring, this is understandable, because they are all familiar with the background knowledge, but I have to take care of those readers who do not understand Warhammer and background knowledge, so some procrastination is inevitable, I hope everyone Sorry.

PS3. Of course, I still welcome everyone's suggestions and opinions, but new writers are most afraid of being led by the rhythm. I hope everyone will be more tolerant of this novel.

Empire, the most powerful human kingdom in the old world, has gone through more than a thousand years since Charlemagne, after the great holy war, a new empire was re-established, in Ludwig and After that, under the leadership of the emperor, the human empire once again prospered.

The hometown of knights, the Kingdom of Brittany is located on the other side of the Gray Mountains, across the mountain from the Emperor's direct commander Rek, and the dividing line between the two countries is Marienburg and Gray. 'Mountains.

Hundreds of years ago, the first generation of knight king Arthur established the country with the help of the lake fairy 'girl'. For hundreds of years after that, Brittany has maintained a relatively good-neighborly and friendly relationship with the empire, and there is no historical difference between the two countries. There is no war, but restraint and tolerance have always been the mainstream in foreign 'diplomacy'. Whenever the other side encounters difficulties, the two countries will always abandon their former hatreds and support each other.

Because they are both human and have the same origin, the Empire and Brittany are basically the same in terms of race and three perspectives. The nobles also use the same language, and they are raging and surrounded by countless foreign enemies. Both human countries believe that internal strife Not advisable.

Although "Tiger" Richard had just fought a battle with the Empire on the outskirts of Marienburg more than a year ago, the alliance between the two countries was not affected. Case.

Richard Qiang read the letter engraved with the Imperial Emperor's seal in the spirit of "spirit", and the King of Knights sighed deeply.

Since the new emperor of the empire, he is more willing to deal with the previous old emperor Luit 'Polder', at least the old emperor is not so young and aggressive, Karl Franz Richard has also heard about the recent series of victories. The national power has been changing, and Richard has to play a twelve-point 'spirit'.

The Knight King thought about it for a while and felt that he should agree to this request. Whether it is to show the strength of the Knight Kingdom or strengthen the covenant between the two countries, participating in this war is beneficial and harmless, and the letter promises that in addition to military expenses, the Knight Kingdom will be Will also receive a large sum of gold as a thank you.

So with the help of the monastery of the 'Ladies', a new army of knights gradually took shape. The dukes chose to respond to the empire's request for help. The knights from the various principalities and the knights of the kingdom converged in Curona to form an army of knights. The reinforcements consisted of more than 300 knights and more than 1,000 cavalrymen, accompanied by more than 2,000 infantrymen composed of serfs.

and a stamped invitation letter.

Reinforcements from the Empire also gradually moved to Marienburg.

The time has come to early March.

The three companies of the Griffin Knights heading to Marienburg this time were all assembled outside the city on standby. Ivan, his son Anton, and his godson Ryan went outside the city together to wait for the arrival of the Brittanian reinforcements.

Looking at the countless manors and farms he saw along the way, Ryan rode on his warhorse pine cones and said to Ivan: "It makes sense for Marienburg to require field battles. If the greenskin army is allowed to attack the city, these manors and farms will be lost. will be reduced to ashes."

Ivan sighed: "Prosperity must also bring drawbacks. For the sake of commercialization, Marienburg has over-expanded the city and allowed the nobles to enclose land outside the city, which makes the city's overall defense capability very weak. Lane, Anton, count. Marienburg didn't ask for it, and I'd go out to the city to fight."

"The number of greenskins gathered in the Gint mine has reached 30,000." Ryan said to his godfather, holding the Griffon Warhammer, "This must be a difficult war, and our army is less than 12,000. people."

"Can the dwarves support us?" Anton asked while riding on his warhorse.

"We can expect the dwarves to lead the army to appear, but we can't have high hopes." Ivan frowned, he took out a map, and then pointed to the two roads on the surface: "There are two routes for Greenskin to attack Marienburg. choose."

"The first is to take the northern route and take the Randall's Way, which leads directly to the outskirts of Marienburg."

"The next day was to take the southern route, that is, attack Collerson first, then attack Fort Lehman, and then reach the suburbs of Marienburg."

"Anton, my son, tell me, do you think the green-skinned warlord Uglok will go that way?" Ivan waved to stop Ryan from speaking, and instead asked his son.

"If it were me, I would take the northern route." Anton spoke, and the young Earl Griffin thought for a moment and gave his answer: "The northern route is sparsely populated, and the greenskins don't need to think about supplies, they will definitely Faster to the outskirts of Marienburg."

"Lion, what about you?" Ivan was silent after listening to his son's thoughts, and then turned to ask Ryan's opinion.

"If I were a greenskin, I would take the southern route." Ryan raised his head and said calmly.

"What's the reason?"

"For the greenskin, the important thing is not the result, but the process. The greenskin is eager to fight, to win, and to destroy. This is the essence of a great waaagh! Only they can have fun." Ryan touched his chin with a serious expression on his face: "So the villages, manors and castles along the southern route are what they want."

Anton suddenly realized: "Ryan is right! This is what Greenskin wants!"

"So...why did I take you out, Anton, many times when you are locked in the castle, you don't even know what's going on outside. As Ryan said, I also think the greenskins will go south." Duke Eagle looked into the distance and continued: "I have ordered the evacuation of all the villagers in Collison, and we will have a showdown with the greenskin army there."

Is it Collerson? Ryan took the map and found that it was a small village with only a hundred people. Maybe it was indeed like what Ivan said, it would be this waaagh! appetizers.

"Also... Ryan, it's really not suitable for you to stay in Marienburg. You have only been in Marienburg for a year, and you are a little slack." Ivan said to Ryan: "That place is easy to relax. , this war is over, you go to Britannia as soon as possible!"

Thinking about the series of performances after coming to Marienburg, Ryan had to admit that his godfather was right. Life in Marienburg is indeed too good, and his whole person has indeed relaxed from 'spirit' to state. :"I am ashamed."

"Well." Ivan said no more.

More than half an hour later, the avenues in the distance were filled with smoke and dust, and the Griffin Knights all straightened their bodies, ready to welcome their allies.

"This time there are about 300 knights in Brittany. I really want to see how capable these knights are." Anton sorted out his helmet and armor and said to Ryan, Ryan Just nodded, and then looked into the distance.

First on the horizon was a knight on a pure-blooded 'elf' armored warhorse, clad in full plate armour, yellow 'color' and black 'color' robes and capes screeching in the air, gold and silver Jewelry hangs from his 'chest', shining brightly with the owner's movements.

In his left hand he holds a shield engraved with the family crest of Bastogne's "red 'fire dragon", and in his right hand a huge lance burning with white 'color' flame, he wears a great cross helmet, the top of which is There is a golden 'color' statue of a dragon.

This is a Holy Grail Knight.

Behind him, hundreds of Brittanian knights came slowly towards the crowd with lances and shields, followed by a squire of knights in similar clothes, and only in leather armor and helmets rangers, and then many infantrymen, who wore simple leather armor and round helmets, some used axes and spears, some used swords and shields, some used spears and long bows, but their uniform feature was their clothing Simple, with a malnourished look on the face, they are the 'elite' imperial infantry regiment. These infantrymen from the kingdom of knights are much worse in terms of equipment, 'mental' state and morale.

"Welcome! Noble knight allies, on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, I extend a warm welcome to you. I wish you good health and let us fight against evil side by side!" Ivan greeted the knights before riding the war horse: " Oh my God, I didn't expect a Holy Grail Knight to come in person and praise the gods!"

"Thanks, my friends! We have fought side by side many times since the founding of Brittany against evil! When we learned that our allies were threatened by the green 'green' evil 'wave' 'tide', we I think it's time, it's time to sound the horn of assembly again and fight side by side with our imperial friends!" The Holy Grail Knight also sent his sincere greetings to Duke Griffin: "I am the Holy Grail Knight Jules," The glory of the lady is, you must be the Lord Griffin, right?"

"Exactly! Your Excellency Jules, it's been a long journey, we have already arranged a banquet to cleanse our knight friends." Duke Griffin Ivan said with a big smile, and then signaled that he had arranged the banquet.

"Are you Ryan?" The Holy Grail Knight Jules looked around forty years old. He spotted Ryan standing beside Ivan, and after staring at him for a while, the Holy Grail Knight suddenly smiled and said, "Welcome, young warrior. , Champion of the 'Ladies', welcome to the ranks of the Knights of the Holy Grail."

"It's a great honor to meet you, Your Excellency!" Ryan shook hands with Jules, and he was a little moved. The Holy Grail Knight is like this. He can complete the Holy Grail Trial. Those who come to the end of the Holy Grail Road are real warriors and The strong with the eight virtues of knights, they will never have prejudice against others because of their personal 'self' interests and 'family' opinions. The Holy Grail Knight will treat every human being equally and fairly.

Except for serfs.

"This is a palace invitation signed by His Majesty Richard himself. Take it, the champion of the 'lady', this is the meaning of the 'lady', I welcome you on behalf of Britannia." Eulers took it out. There is a scroll with the seal of the lake **** 'sorceress' and the king of knights engraved on its face.

Britannia officially invited Ryan to join the Knights Kingdom as a lord noble.

"Thank you..." Ryan's hands trembled a little. Accepting this invitation officially meant that he would be promoted from a low-level noble to a high-level noble. After nine years of fighting, and the accumulation of countless fame, he finally got this result. Emotions could not help ups and downs, with deep feelings.

In this world, the pace of ascension is so difficult, the ladder of promotion is so narrow, of course he knows that as the end draws near, he must hurry, but some urgent matters are useless, and the meal must be eaten one bite at a time. , becoming a lord noble is only the first step.

Lane could feel the jealous and adoring gazes of the Brittanian Ranger Knights, who were jealous that they were favored by the Lake Fairy 'Daughter', who admired themselves so young to become Holy Grail Knights and have their own territory.

Not being envied is mediocrity, and Ryan just smiled lightly.

Sure enough, before the evening banquet started, many knights took the initiative to challenge Ryan.

"Hello Mr. Ryan, I'm Anatole of Berleon! I want to experience Mr. Ryan's riding!"

"I'm Kleiman of 'Montford' and I hope to have a fair duel with Mr. Lane!"

"Taubert of Angouran..."

"I am Gaspar, son of Maurice..."

Countless ranger knights pestered Ryan frantically, making him extremely annoying.

Every noble boy in Brittany has been on the road of knighthood while still in the arms of his mother. Their blood automatically led them to this path, but blood is only the key to this path, and the boys must go further to prove their loyalty, courage and virtue. There are various ways of earning them prestige and status on the road, but young knights are dedicated to the road of battle to show their status as knights, and when they reach adulthood, they are immediately made knights of the ranger.

According to Ryan, these ranger knights are still in the second stage, that is, they are reckless, courageous, and youthful. In order to prove their strength to the lake fairy 'girl', these young knights are full of energy and dream of being able to show their skills in the battle. , to gain the long-desired fame and glory.

Ryan's egg hurts a lot. He doesn't want to waste time on these knights. The strongest knights are only elites~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There are even a few 'hairy' boys It's just an ordinary rank. Seeing them laboriously wearing plate armor and holding swords and shields, Ryan thought that you should still be able to use weapons freely.

Calmly did not respond, because the Holy Grail Knight was supposed to be cold and inhuman, but his behavior 'inspired' the enthusiasm of the ranger knights, they chatted around Ryan, and the young knights hoped to be able to Challenge him, defeat him, and earn his glory and prestige.

There are even many ranger knights 'ran' calling Ryan to admit defeat if he does not duel.

Ryan still ignored it. If he did, it would be troublesome. This group of people was obviously here to get hot.

As Lane tried to slip out of the crowd, two people blocked his way.

This looks like a brother and sister, because they look alike, they both have golden hair and sea blue eyes, the man is tall and handsome, about the same height as Ryan, but his face is covered with thick cold, The freezing cold is almost inseparable.

The 'female' side has an almost perfect 'fine' face, her long golden hair is slightly curled at the ends of the hair, fixed by a black 'color' headband, and her body has a mithril knight plate. At first glance, it is tailor-made, but unlike her brother, this 'female' knight has a temperament as gentle as water. It is hard to imagine that there will be such a huge difference between brothers and sisters.

But they have the same coat of arms, blue and white shield pattern, a pure white 'color' Pegasus is soaring, this is the "pure white horse" coat of arms of the Duke of Winford Aintree family, this family is a knight One of the three noblest families in the kingdom.

Seeing these two people, Ryan stopped.

"You're here, Yuri."

"Also, you are welcome, Suria."
