Chapter 1083 (1/2)

When Loren was still trying his best to bypass the battlefield from the gem River and enter the besieged imperial capital, the ”Golovin defense war” in West Saxony was in full swing.

But in fact, there is a ”small misunderstanding” in the middle; That is, when did the ”battle for the protection of the capital of Golovin” start? There are almost four to five answers.

The reason is that the time difference between them is different - whether it starts from Byrne's army going north and sticking to the imperial capital; Or did the Azores break through the line of defense, land and water, and invade West sakran; Or is it the complete collapse of the eboden defense line and the breakthrough of the Grand Duke of ellemans?

During this period, it was also mixed with a variety of minority opinions, such as ”Duke Byrne's Westward Movement”, ”Boye's Hussars crossing”, ”crown prince Brandon's southward movement”

All kinds of statements are mixed with unclear, mixed with the interest disputes of several forces, or the purpose of some scholars to establish schools and write books and theories; So that the official history of later generations had to include almost all statements at the same time, and the starting time was roughly set within one month.

As for why this happened... Apart from the chaos of the war and the time difference in transportation and communication, a reason rarely noticed is the letter of help from the imperial capital Golovin - more accurately, the heavenly palace.

For 13 generations since the founding of the Empire, the imperial capital Golovin has never encountered any war - the reason is very simple. It is eboden in the north, saklan in the East, lottel in the West and Bain in the South... The imperial capital protected by all sides can never be threatened by war.

After 13 generations of comfortable life, the nobles in the imperial capital have long forgotten what war is; The vault of heaven is the core of the world, so the end of the world is the wall of Golovin - as for what happens outside the wall, it's just the anecdotes and strange things of another world, just the talk at the banquet and reception.

Therefore, although the Empire entered a state of all-out war, and even the emperor personally went north to take the seat of duanjieshan fortress, the nobles in the imperial capital were still very calm, complaining about the increasingly scarce luxury goods and the recent excessive collection of Tianqiong palace.

This ”calmness” lasted until the eboden line was broken for the first time, and a small group of Azores attacked a manor near the imperial capital.

The first reaction of the emperors and nobles who heard the news was not panic, but excitement.

For these sudden ”long eared elves”, the nobles in the imperial capital did not regard them as immortal enemies, but some ”new thing” - their curiosity about different cultures and races made these nobles who had nothing to do suddenly find new fun in their boring life.

Therefore, under the ”excitement” of the aristocratic Council, a ”imperial capital Guard Corps” dominated by imperial patrols, mixed with fanatical Holy Cross believers and young Knights was established. It also specially submitted a declaration of war to the Azores opposite, and fought to the death in a flat grassland near the Baoshi river.

The Azores Elven warrior who received the challenge letter was very moved and specially asked the messenger to send a thank-you letter, saying that he must ”abide by the noble reputation of the warrior and fight a fair war with the Imperial Knights”;

Then he waited for the ”imperial capital Guard Corps” that day and found himself pigeoned all day. In the evening, he found that the Elven warriors who had only completed two-thirds of the journey of the Corps launched a raid in anger and killed them all.

In order to revenge ”the imperial people's dishonesty”, the Azores Elven warriors escorted all the captured prisoners alive under the imperial capital city wall and beheaded them in full view of the public.

The terrified city wall guards watched their heads cut off - including the heirs of more than a dozen rich families, radical imperial aristocrats, and more than 100 people who are related to the de saleon royal family.

These ”noble blood” were beheaded like hyenas in the clear spring breeze.

The imperial nobles finally panicked - after 300 years, they once again knew the difference between street riots and war.

They found it for the first time. War can be so close to itself; It seems that the eboden defense line far away may only be a few days away for the light cavalry.

If the eboden defense line collapses, the imperial capital as the rear will be directly exposed to the front of hundreds of thousands of Azores elves.

At the suggestion of some ”responsible” young nobles, the imperial parliament wrote a very severe reprimand letter to the front-line commander and Military Secretary Severin desallion, accusing him of ”disadvantageous supervision of the war, victimizing the imperial capital and humiliating the royal family”.

Then they received another terrible information - the thawing of the port of eboden, and the Azores reinforcements have arrived, with a force of no less than 100000.

The already shaky eboden defense line may collapse at any time.

In the sound of ”excitement”, metterne Leopold, the chief of the former cabinet and the seal minister, coldly refused the nobles' request to send the Legion stationed in the sky palace outside the city to defend the imperial capital, especially the nobles' private manor.

In order to appease the emotions of all parties, and after consulting his royal highness, the eldest princess fillonay, he agreed to let the imperial parliament send a letter of help to ”all parts of the Empire”.

However, on the issue of ”who to ask for help”, the emperors and nobles fell into great contradictions.

Because in terms of distance, there is no doubt that the nearest places must be lottel, El mans and East Saxony; However, lottel is playing an independent role in the Western battlefield and is still counting on the emperor to give them assistance; The hills of El mans are everywhere. I'm afraid it will be cold when the reinforcements arrive.

Of course, the best option is Brandon de saleon, who is fighting the rebellion in East Saxony - but the last thing the imperial nobles want to choose is Brandon de saleon!

His highness, the ”disgraced Prince”, has obtained the identity of Prince of East Saxony and the first successor in order in the last interest exchange. Once he has the great reputation of ”saving the imperial capital”, it is equivalent to making him the next generation of emperor.

For the imperial nobles, it may be really worse than letting them die.

After a brief quarrel, more accurately, after bad news came one after another from the front line, the imperial nobles had to turn their eyes to another force - Bain.

This is also an option that makes the imperial nobles very ”embarrassed”.

The Byrnes and the saxorians... More accurately, the imperial nobles of West Saxony have always been at odds with each other and are in a state where everyone looks down on everyone.
