Page 158 [National Crisis]
The sun rises to the sky.
The war began as expected.
Charge, break the formation, and the two armies intersect.
The men's bodies collided hard, the sword was unsheathed, and the gunpowder flew in the air filled with a strong hormonal smell.
Blood flows.
This is the spring morning in Ionia.
A morning when everything should have grown and the spring breeze blows all over the plains.
Such mornings lasted for many years in Ionia.
I don't know when the last one will be.
"Puchi--" Arella's sword flew, easily chopping down a Noxus soldier, and once again came to the front of the formation.
Opposite her was Dryus, who also cut over the Ionians.
Old opponent.
The two met again, and the scars from yesterday were still vivid in my mind.
The two men looked at each other, stepped on and attacked.
The battlefield also boiled with the pace of the two main generals in an instant.
The sword roared.
"It seems that your worries are unnecessary." Kalma was riding a horse behind the battlefield, staring at the northwest of the formation.
There, the latest two thousand people in the collection were arranged there to support the flanks.
So far, the battle has begun for a quarter of an hour, and they still have no abnormal movements. Except for being a little bit restrained as if they were seeing a big scene for the first time, their performance is also quite normal.
"I hope it's redundant." Balzac just answered like this, his eyes always focused on it, and he dared not be distracted at all.
He was afraid that this link would go wrong.
In fact, the people who are also afraid to take it lightly are also the ones who are being watched.
Jason.
Jason Fox.
This lucky guy or unlucky guy who was chosen by Planck to fight against Chen Senran.
Now he regrets why he acts without permission, why he bets, and why he has to take two thousand people alone and break into other people's territory.
No, he now regrets even more why he joined Planck's new army. If he hadn't joined the damn new army, he still didn't know which tavern was holding the sluts and drinking wine, instead of walking on thin ice here.
Go to his mother's success, go to his mother's wealthy beauty.
If he can survive this time, he must tell others that ordinary days are the happiest.
But he has to survive.
He may have a chance of falling to the ground at any time now. If he dares to read casually, he will say one more thing.
The two Noxus ruthless men who were arranged to monitor themselves would cut off their heads without mercy.
He could only sit on the horse like a puppet, waiting for the more than 2,000 Noxus people around him to start attacking at some point and then kill him.
Oh, although the damn Noxus said that as long as they helped them complete the task, they would spare him a life.
But...who believes it?
What's more, this is the territory of Jack, who knows how he will treat him.
But the blind man seemed to have seen something, but he was a blind man, right?
It would be better if he saw something. Then maybe he wouldn't have to die?
No one knows what's in the head of poor ghost Jason.
Including the blind Jack who might have seen something.
The blind Jack, Chen Senran, is now yawning boredly on the edge of the battlefield: "Let's go, old smoker, it's really boring."
"Don't you watch it? Maybe we will lose the next moment." Graves spat out a cigarette in surprise.
"I promise you that today will not end. Both sides have no belief in winning, and they are all short of breath." Chen Senran shook his head and started walking back, "Besides, I am a blind man, what do you think of a blind man?"
"That's right." Graves touched his head in even more shock. He also began to walk back, muttering as he walked, "Yes, what do you think of the blind man?"
——————————
Ji is now facing a difficult problem.
Just before noon, when he led his large troops to the western coast, ready to fight against the unknown invaders.
He received the second bad news.
Tianwang Mountain fell.
The one who delivered the letter was a balanced ninja who escaped from Tianwang Mountain.
Not. To be precise, it was released.
Jie did not kill him, Jie personally let the ninja go and told him, you must run to Lord Ji as soon as possible. Tell him about the bad news that Tianwang Mountain fell.
Otherwise, your sins will be great.
So he really ran very fast, and when he reached Ji, he was on the verge of death.
He said to Ji that Tianwang Mountain has fallen.
Then he died.
In fact, what is there any greater sin than the fall of Tianwang Mountain?
Jie means deliberately telling Ji that I have won you, but I have really won you.
Ji now knows that Ji defeated him.
As for how to win, what method to rely on, and whether Tianwangshan would have to vomit three mouthfuls of blood if he lost himself.
Because, Jie also posed a bigger problem for himself.
Where should he go?
Go back to Tianwang Mountain or to regain the coast.
To fight against foreign countries or to stabilize the country.
This is a difficult choice for thousands of years.
Although Ji is a hero in charge, he doesn't know how to choose for a while.
"Sir, let's go back to Tianwang Mountain." An older elder suggested.
"Sir, the coast is important. No matter how you say it, they are all outsiders." Another younger elder, who was considered a young sect in the sect, immediately retorted.
Of course, Ji didn't say anything about the fall of Tianwang Mountain. He only controlled the news at the top of the sect, otherwise, the morale of the army would be disrupted.
Ji Huan looked at the top leaders of the sect in the tent, and finally looked at Shen, who was sitting in the corner without saying a word, and said, "Shen, what about your thoughts?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was slightly uproared.
Shen had already taken the initiative to die last night, but after hearing about the fall of the coast, he took the initiative to demand the recovery of his home.
The top leaders of the sect originally distrust him.
But strangely, Ji actually agreed to him.
Shen was also slightly stunned. He had already had a desire to die. He heard that the coast had fallen, and he thought that it would be better to sacrifice his life for the country than to die like this.
Anyway, they are all dead.
He turned a blind eye to the matter outside the window and was only waiting to go into battle to kill the enemy until he died.
But I didn't expect Ji would ask him.
"...Sir, where is His Highness Louis?" Shen asked after pausing.
Although Ionia has been destroyed for a long time, the old kingdom has its own profound foundation for hundreds of years, and it is not really destroyed. Although the power of the old kingdom is weak, there are still nearly 10,000 royal guards.
"Your Highness... is naturally in the royal city." Ji's words were a pun.
First, Louis was in Precidian, and second, naturally, he always remained neutral in this war.
In fact, in the past decade, the Preshidian royal family has always implemented this concept, which is to defend the last piece of royal land that belongs to them without leaving the Preshidian royal city.
It is not difficult to see from this that they want to reap profits and take the opportunity to restore their country.
"But... it's a national crisis now." Shen said with some difficulty. He heard from Ji's words that Ji had already made the idea of Louis.
"Is the national crisis..." Ji was silent for a moment, and said in a voice that everyone in the tent could hear, "When has it been a national crisis in the past ten years?"
The whole tent is quiet. (To be continued...)
ps: First update.
Good feel.
