Chapter 51 (2/2)
The Raytheon apparently understood the young lady'sabsolutely clueless to what that iuely recalled that its own parents had performed a certain action beneath the banner
The youngster held fast onto the reigns but this ti e and leaped with all its e The last ju shaken and as if a few of his bones had cracked! He will never be able to bear another fall to the ground!
Oscar tried to pacify hisslightly The youth suddenly lifted his head and the huge flag was at that moment already behind hie land that was obscured by the banner all the while
”Ah…Ha…Ha!” His Royal Highness Prince O'Neil Andrew Morisette's lips were blanched and his agitated being ehts clad in black armor, lined up like apparitions over the plains in front of the s on towards the distant horizon
The Narcissus Knights were masked behind their silver visor and none of the erect on the lands of Andrew titan beneath the heavens; Oscar could feel that even the winds had ceased to make a sound
The knights who beared the war flags urged their warhorses to forlanced left and right, and felt at a loss that he did not previously feel Who could tell hiht to do?
”Take out your weapon!” A tiny voice drifted towards him
Oscar carateful look to one of the flag bearing officers closest to hi drawn, Oscar puffed out his chest He sensed that the wounds that had long since healed were once again split open
”What now?”
When Murat heard the prince's words, he nearly fell fro as this should not take place at this divine hour! They need to reviehy the prince of the procession was clueless as to what should be done He dropped his voice as low as possible, ”My Royal Highness, raise your… Oh goodness! Why are you wielding a machete?”
Major General Murat Bedoya was about to lose it He was indecisive on whether he should replace the prince's weapon; he did not knohat kind consequence it would bring unto His Royal Highness Prince to wave a hts
”Seriously… Forget about it! Raise your… your !” It suddenly crossed Murat's mind, ”after this is over, do not mention to anyone that I was the one who directed you to do this!” Oh goodness gracious! Murat curled up his lips, he just could not comprehend it; why did the only person he ever witness to use aall the people of titan, had to be the little hero of the house of Andrew?
”So… What should I say?”
”What?”
”I said, what should I say?” Oscar was oblivious to the Narcissus Knights below hi both hi against one another
”Oh God!” Murat felt intense sha for your review, don't tell me that you do not have any sentiments at all?”
Oscar racked his brain and gave it soht He finally came to an apprehension! The ten thousand people beloaiting for his review and as for his sentiments, it seemed that there was only one word that surfaced
The youngster turned his horse and held onto the reins tightly, then directed theany cohts brandished their weapons The plains tre metal
”Quickly withdraw your blade!” Murat prayed! ”Of all things, do not let the fools below discover that you are wielding a Persian weapon to greet them!”
”Andrew Haila!” The long cry cae banner, and by the tihts' lineup, an even louder wave erupted and reverberated
”Andrew Haila!” ”Andrew Haila!” ”Andrew Haila!” The whole earth was once again resonating the cheer of Andrew Oscar's Raytheon was the first to rise on its hind legs and kicked its forelegs like htly to its neck, barely daring to move! However, it could not be blamed for it recalled that its father had done the same back then!
The knights' originally organized shouts had changed pace Froan ”Andrew Haila” had continued to spread throughout all the divisions! The rise and fall of the cheers were like singing, vibrating through the eardrums of both men and horse!
Major General Murat Bedoya as beside the prince suddenly raised the war flag in his hands! One of the division level ave an even hts of that division started to beat their spears on their shi+elds rapidly and the ear-piercing sound wavescheer of ”Andrew Haila”
Another officer beside the prince esture as Murat and the other end of the lineup also erupted with the sound of spears clashi+ng on shi+elds
The re twenty-five officers represented their divisions and raised their war flags in succession! The cheer of ”Andrew Haila” was co in fury beneath the banner; this little lad had forgotten what he was supposed to carry out next!
However, this tihness Prince O'Neil Andrew Morisette snatched the war flag fro to the snatched flag and urged his horse to charge down the hillside Murat gave a cry and charged after the prince and a number the other officers followed suit!
Oscar charged head on towards countless Narcissus Knights His body leaned forwards with all his ht The Raytheon had achieved peak velocity once it had dash down the hillside; the whipping wind and cheers of the knights rapidly fell behind his ears However, another neave of a variety of sounds was ester's horse was headed towards, all the knights would autoend-like youngster as raising the war flag of the Narcissus Knights' Red Tiger assault division and flitting through the sea of people constructed of shi+elds and spears
Oscar had no idea where he was to go; his warhorse was also at a loss At that e his horse to continue galloping forwards However, knights ere spreading onto either side kept flooding before his eyes; it felt like he was flitting through a never-ending lineup forhts
The Lady duchess of Andrew, Celia, ehter, ”Take a look! Sasha! Do you see? Little Oscar has finally returned ho for hi?”
”No, mother!” Sasha kissed her mother's cheek e tears of her own to continually roll down her cheeks ”No! No, hts' ranks, just like a true hero, he has forged ahead!”
Yes, that's right! His Royal Highness Prince O'Neil Andrew Morisette received welcohts like a true hero Just look at that youngster spurring his horse to bolt forwards! When he passed through the square forhts, no one could describe his feelings
Exactly twenty-seven divisions of the Narcissus Knights cahness Prince, totaling to hty thousand men! This also included all three of the fronts, which were defending the Empire's territory nearby, beneath the banner of Andrew
The fronts of the Narcissus Knights adopted a sied their compositions based on the natural terrain The House of Andrew did not establish any provincial-level administrative unit in the territories; the fifteen fronts that constituted the entire armed force of the family represented the fifteen districts
Since the Persians had never ceased their attacks, so every time the fire beacon at the border lit up, the whole territory of Andreould assume a state underhours under the er than that under the administrative authority In the end, around the middle of the fifth century, Andrew simply opted to dissolve the first class ad the Military Personnel Bureau, that was a united aranizational structure in the overnment and arency, judiciary, inspectorate, taxation body, military and reserve institutions and so on
To the Military Personnel Bureau, the so-called government residence established by the titan Empire in Narcissus County was undoubtedly just a front for show According to the orders of chief administrator of the Military Personnel Bureau, Marshal Dort froabel, were not to be accepted
It is a little ridiculous speaking of this, but the outsiders would not regard it as such If one were to say that Duke Andreas assu dual roles, only obeyed the Empire's Central by naovernment residence; if one were to say that he really did not care about the E officer of the Military Personnel Bureau would undoubtedly provide hi all these would not be nonsense because the governor and the chief administrator were simply one However, the people of Narcissus felt that only the commands of the chief administrator best addressed the issue
The endlessleadershi+p status of the House of Andrew at the territories of the Eastern border, but this system itself limited political and economical activities within the borders of Andrew to a certain extent
A soldier's mission in life was to obey commands and so, the commands of the Military Personnel Bureau of Andrew controlled all the fate of the people within the territories Andrew's control over the people and military had already achieved a state of near perfection If there were no commands from the superiors, then no one was able to operate at ithin the borders of Andrew Despite this syste able to stabilize the entire border of Andrew, but in the long run it could not avoid taking on the path of doctrine and bureaucracy
To deter the infiltration and destruction by the Persians and to escape the interference and surveillance from the Empire's central, the Military Personnel Bureau founded the Census Bureau This Bureau only had a tiny sign hung at the Military Health Departate the census register and to go through the epide palace's building conificance was placed under the jurisdiction of the Military Investigation bureau To put it simply, this department was Andrew's personal secret service Its principle duty was to monitor all visible hostility directed towards the Andrews or uncertain potential eneence Bureau under the control of the th
This was to say that, the role that Duke Andrew played at the Eastern border was undoubtedly that of an Emperor And to the subjects of Andrew, he indeed was The foundation that made up the Andrew family's rule was extreorized into the reproduction group and the battle group To put it even more siht and the soldiers of Narcissus fought so that they could continue to reproduce and live So, Andrew served as the organizer of all activities and the body that aggregated all the glory and belief in their midst As far as it concerned the people of Narcissus, Andreas not only their coe enshrined by God's side in the church
The Andreere God-chosen warriors! These were the opening words in all the government textbooks from primary school to the only acade foundation would be the significance of the people being convinced by these words The people of Narcissus born in foreign lands would usually give this clarification ”I am from the Eastern Border of Andrew!” first and foremost when they introduced themselves The Narcissus people had made Andrew their only family name
If the Duke of Andrew in that era were to have any shortcoe spectacles Marshal Dortabel's hobby was to display his ar just when it started, the Narcissus Knights realized that their old foes were not that difficult to handle as before! Furthermore, once the defensive line at the frontier that was as packed as a spider's web and the strongholds that were as nuhts and the soldiers of the Narcissus warrior group no longer had to prepare their posthu battle like before
Despite wars breaking out ceaselessly, despite the casualties becohts had already procured battle strategies and tactics that could completely hold back the Persians Be it individual combat techniques or an army's attack and defense coordination, after four centuries of trials, the Persians whostock and no longer the terrifying Pagan terminators
Going back to the Duke of Andrew, Dortmund, this handsome Marshal was at the prihter and his Godchildren were so plentiful that even he himself did not quite remember them all He also had four Madames This was theto the decree of the God of Light, amy was considered theinto consideration the rather high sacrificial rate of the Andrew family members of direct descent on the battlefield, so two hundred years ago, His Grand Eht instructions froht Sapriuses and thus, the Andrew faardless of whether that Grand Eminence Pope truly attained the Divine divinity, the Andrew faiven decree to conscientiously guarantee the continuation of their bloodline
Speaking of Duke Dortmund as fond of ostentation, since all fifteen of the fronts were not at the front lines, so the other units aiting to be relieved froarrisons at least had to be occupied with tasks during the brief peaceful period The Duke enjoyed convening all for-in Cere He also enjoyed conducting large scale military exercises, for instance at the end of each year, the Duke would divide the fronts into two colors, which were black and white, according to the colors of the Fierce Tiger Flag of Narcissus Although the stand off between the black and white were very much pretense, but the ordinary people who came to watch did not feel so The ”Black and White Tournament” held once every year was undeniably their sole entertain the cold winter days
The Imperial household of Morisette's visit was insufficient to obtain a large enough audience for Duke Andrew to actually dispatch the three fronts However, if the reports fro princess may very possibly become little Oscar's wife Moreover, with His Majesty the Eement, he feared that it was most likely to announce to the people of the world of the princess' belonging
Confronted with the desolated office, Dortmund lifted up his teacup leisurely, but he then immediately replaced it He had been bothered about the relationshi+p between the princess and his young son for several days already! It was a rare occasion for his young son to return hoehter If he did that, then it would indicate that he was choosing Oscar as the succeeding head of the family, because only the family head of Andrew could e and qualifications simply could not convince the elders of the family at all Even the second eldest, who constantly stirred up trouble, was ! Then what about the princess? If the E another engagement ceremony at this juncture was definitely inappropriate Could it be that he really had to disappoint little Sasha?”
The Duke again lighted another cigar Hehe, one of his Madams had hidden a lot of them away, but his office's secret box still had ht hold of the copper bell on the table and shook it violently The huge doors to the office were opened instantly
”Lieutenant Colonel Tracey, where have they reached?”
”Ahe a black uniform, choked on the mist-like smoke in the room If she were to reveal her dissatisfaction towards this Marshal, then thewas definitely one of them
”Ahe Marshal!” Tracey furrowed her eyebrows She flipped through a stack of report forms and documents in her hands to retrieve a roup of the the 7th o”
The Duke shook his head; he turned his chair to face the French s The sunlight instantly illuloomy face
”Tracey! You have neglected one exceptionally significant figure, which is the princess of the imperial household! I have always believed my intuitions That princess is definitely not a person who can be taken lightly of!”
