Rise In Calradia - Chapter 436: :pessimistic

“Citizens of Palavin, the king needs you!”

Early in the morning, the sergeants of Palavin knocked on the doors of the city people from house to house according to the list, woke up the drunk-eyed male master, and asked him and a certain son of his family to fulfill their obligations to His Majesty the King, as a The volunteer militia participated in the city defense after the troops left the city.

The large-scale conscription operation still started, and as time passed day by day, Mrs. Aisona’s army was not delayed by the obstacles in the original plan, but advanced unstoppably.

Those local nobles who had been clamoring to present their swords to the king, like frightened chickens, watched tremblingly as the false queen’s army swaggered past their small castles and manors. Purchase or expropriate large quantities of supplies on land.

The young Harauu King angrily dropped half of the furniture in the room. This kind of fatal accident caused the time they originally set aside for themselves to be cut in half. Considering that the news of reinforcements has not yet arrived, their situation is not optimistic. .

When Earl Dispin, the son of Earl Glenward, and the lord of Yerigal Town led the army, he went to the castle to pay homage to the new king, but found that the servants in the castle were all gathered downstairs and looked at the stairs anxiously, while Ben The king who was supposed to sit on a throne in the hall to greet him was gone, only roaring and cursing could be heard from upstairs.

So Earl Dispin waited downstairs for a while, until the sound faded away, and when the servants looked at each other and dared not go up, he pushed them away and went up, and even tidied up his appearance when he went upstairs.

He walked through the stairs and corridors, but he couldn’t find the new king. At last, after a whispered reminder from a royal steward, he finally found the monarch he would swear allegiance to in a room used to store royal treasures.

At this time, King Harauu was sitting on a high-grade mahogany table that had been chopped up by an axe, leaning on his chin in deep thought. On the floor of the room, there were smashed statues and fragments of expensive oriental china, and clothes racks hung with torn pieces of cloth.

“Your Majesty the King, I, Count Dispin, the lord of Yerrige, swear my loyalty to you. May you and your family rule Swadia together and protect your vassals and people.”

Although it was a bit embarrassing and the situation was not suitable, Dispin still took the oath simply according to the etiquette, and Harauu also sighed lightly at this time, stood up unsteadily, apparently drank a full bottle of red wine .

“I accept your oath, brother, hiccup—you don’t have to be so polite, we’ve known each other since we were kids. Well now, kings and lords, come on, who the **** knows how many days I’ll be on the throne.”

King Harauu was full of complaints, kicked over the ax on the table, and immediately retracted his foot, bared his teeth in pain, spat at the ax, and walked out of the room shaking.

“Come with me, go to my room, let’s have a good chat.”

Earl Dispin shook his head helplessly, and followed behind the king. They had known each other since childhood, Earl Dispin was only three years older than King Harauu, and they had indeed been playmates. It has been several years since Earl Dispin obtained the territory from his family. Now that his friend has become the king, he came to congratulate him with gifts and troops to support him, but he did not want his old friend to become like this now. The enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, just wearing the crown is like being thirty years older.

“Has Byron come?” On the way, His Majesty the King asked a little deliriously.

“When I led the troops here, I heard that he and Lord Crags defeated the two armies of Rhodoks and wounded Graves. Now they are repairing in the south. If we can wait a little longer, they must Come to support us.”

“This is the best news I’ve heard in a while!”

The king’s eyes lit up, and the smell of alcohol dissipated a lot.

“I’m very glad to bring you this news, but with all due respect, Your Majesty, you can’t expect too much from their arrival. The two lords may have suffered heavy losses in the southern war, and the strength that can be spared to support us must be very limited. .and the Rhodoks are short of horses, and their infantry is expected to be a long time late.”

“At least we know they’ll be there, and that’s good enough.”

The king nodded, looking satisfied. Earl Dispin didn’t know why the news made His Majesty the new king so happy, after all, they didn’t think the same thing.

What Earl Dispin thought was that the battle was imminent, and the reinforcements would not be able to reach the battlefield in time. And what the king really thought was that once the battle was lost, at least there would be another army to rely on.

“How many people did you bring this time? Dispin.”

“300 warriors, half of them are infantry and half are crossbowmen, Your Majesty. There are also 40 cavalry, and all 11 of my knights.” Dispin replied truthfully.

“It sounds like Ye Ruige doesn’t have a lot of manpower.”

Hearing this number, which is better than nothing, the king couldn’t help shaking his head.

“Yeringge is very rich, but we rely on southern merchants more than farmland. Merchants are unwilling to accept conscripts. Most of them replace their obligations with money. We usually rely on mercenaries to defend our homes. But now the Rhodoks war has attracted Most of the mercenary teams we know, we don’t have many soldiers available. But don’t worry, what I bring are all elite soldiers. The number of chain armor exceeds the total number of soldiers, and horses are three times more than cavalry. You can rely on them .”

“I hope so. After all, we will set off with the whole army in two days. Let your soldiers be ready. We can’t fight under the city of Palaven. It will be the biggest shame of Swadia for two hundred years. , not to mention that when we hide behind the city wall, that witch will bewitch all my people outside the city!”

At this moment, Harau truly understood his situation and what he should pay for his throne. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

His army is no longer immersed in the belief of victory and optimistic joy, but seriously prepares for battle, polishes its weapons, maintains its armor, and prays to the Father for victory.

“So Madam Isona is almost at Palavin!”

In a village to the south, after hearing the messenger’s reply, Earl Crags began to wonder if there was something wrong with his ears.

“Our communication with Pravin was cut off for half a month, and she obviously had a lot of work during this time.” On the other hand, Byron was also shocked by the news.

Since they started marching northward, their communication with Palavin has been cut off, which is really incredible, after all, this is not an enemy’s dangerous place along the way, but the hinterland of their own country.

It now appears that Madame Isona must have intercepted their letters to the King in several ways.

“Let the army march quickly, don’t waste time, His Majesty the King needs us!”
