Chapter 282: At the border (1/2)
Cecil’s collar was again attacked by monsters from the ruined land, and the enemy who successfully annihilated the enemy on that day became the fastest and most widely spread news in this cold winter, and the spread of the news was not only the way. The credits of the spies, traders, and mercenaries have a great influence on the acquiescence and even the secret promotion of the high-text people.
In Gao Wen’s statement, it is “must let the amiable Southern aristocrats and kings know the existence of threats”.
In this cold winter, many people are destined to sit down.
On the eastern border of Ansu, the Changfeng Fortress.
As the general guardian of the East, the Duke of Silas Loren personally stationed the fortress. At this moment, he stood on the top terrace of the castle in the center of the fortress, overlooking the layers of the wall in the distance, and Outside the wall, the vast expanse of snow covered snow.
This fortress, which was completed ten years ago, is the pride of the Loren family in the East. It has gone through the pains of three generations. The East family has paid huge financial resources, material resources, manpower, and even the blood of family members. The sturdy fortress was erected on the tit-for-tat land of the Titan empire. It is a barrier and a deterrent to the Winter Wolf Fort and its affiliated fortresses set up on the border with the Titan Empire.
The establishment of the Changfeng Fortress stems from the rapid deterioration of the relationship between Ansu and Tifeng.
In the foggy month of a hundred years ago, the Loren family in the East was the best preserved of the Dukes of the Four Kingdoms. From the beginning, the family realized that the Tifeng empire, which is always commensurate with the Ansu brothers, is actually a huge The threat, so during the entire foggy month, the family did not let their core forces participate in the chaotic and cruel kingship struggle. The Loren family’s limited actions during the Civil War were just to keep themselves The status and influence within the kingdom, and most of their energy has been placed on this border line in the east. Later, the facts proved that the dignity and responsibility of the Duke of Loren guarded the entire kingdom.
At the end of the civil strife, the situation in Ansu was quickly settled by the establishment of the Second Dynasty and the thunder of the Northern Wilde family. The Loren family began to build a series of defense facilities on the border, and the Windward Fortress was all defenses. One of the most energetic, time-consuming, and defensive forces in the facility.
It is not so much a military fortress, but rather a “fortress city” with both fortress and city functions. It has all the facilities to maintain the operation of the fortress and ensure self-sufficiency. The soldiers of the Loren family are the soldiers of the city. It is also a resident of the city, and the purpose of this fortress city is to stand on the border of the land under any circumstances and never fall.
When Ansu suffered a major recession due to civil strife, the Tifeng empire was born out of its own strength, and it was because of the establishment of the barrier of the Loren family that it was on the national border. The heart can only be a bad heart.
In fact, the four major families of Ansu in the midst of the foggy month can be said to have taken on several distinct historical roles: the Franklin family in the West has always maintained diplomatic and trade relations with the Ogure tribe and saved the kingdom. The economic lifeline laid the foundation for the reconstruction of the post-war kingdom; the Wilder family in the northern border used an illegitimate child as a banner, and it thundered and settled the civil strife of the entire country, forcibly stabilized the kingdom before the situation was completely irreparable; The Loren family, as a barrier, held the border of Ansu and blocked the unscrupulous enemies outside the country during the civil strife.
Although each of them can be said to be selfish, and they are almost divided during the civil war, but in any case, they still hold the kingdom at the last moment.
In stark contrast, the Cecil family, which was originally established by the heads of the four founding dukes in the south, has been a glorious Cecil family for six hundred years... No one has done anything.
Now that the ancestors of the Cecil family have lived, no one dares to directly accuse the Cecil family of honors. They can only say that their homes are unfortunate, and they have encountered one of the worst heirs, ancestors, at the most critical point in time. The foundation is almost destroyed.
Historians have never lacked enthusiasm in this regard, they always talked about what caused the four families to have such a very different performance during the foggy month, but in the eyes of the Duke of Loren, all The discussion about that period of history is meaningless. He thinks that the main reason for the situation in that year is that Govin Cecil died too early. The Duke of Cecil, who died at the age of 35, left the field too early. The world, so I did not pass his glory and glory to the children in time, so the inheritance of the Cecil family was a big problem in the Grumman Cecil generation.
The resurrection of the Duke of Cecil may be to educate future generations.
Silas Loren stood on the terrace and quietly thought about these issues concerning the history and glory of the kingdom. Many people think that this legendary Duke is just a martial artist, but he thinks that those are just ignorant. Nothing is foolish. He never lacks deep thinking, but his talent on the battlefield is far higher than his thinking, so people only notice his power.
A familiar atmosphere approached, and Silas Loren regained his gaze into the distance. He turned and saw a young man with short brown hair and armor walking on the terrace. This old-fashioned, imposing young knight was He bent slightly in front of him: "Father, intelligence is coming."
"The Knights!" said Silas Loren, "Berke, you are reporting the military!"
"Yes!" The young man quickly got up and took a very standard knight ceremony, "General, the latest information."
