Heroes of the Invincible Knight Chapter 655

city gate

The attackers are dead

The Northern Army is cleaning the battlefield, because Li Cha did not give the order to keep the prisoners, and the group of killers of the Northern Army were particularly ruthless. In addition, the attackers had a tenacious will to fight, and there were no people who took the initiative to surrender. Arrange hundreds of corpses in a row for identification.

"My lord, after identifying the attackers, most of the attackers were soldiers of the Praetorian Guards, and some were from the City Guards and the Security Army. The leader was a flag head of the Praetorian Guards."

Quill stood beside Richard's carriage and leaned over to report the battle to Richard.

Li Cha nodded, but there was no abnormality in his tone and expression, he just asked another question.

"How about the casualties?"

"Only two people in our army were killed and more than a dozen were injured."

The casualties of the Northland Army were almost negligible compared to the bodies of hundreds of attackers. The Northland Army itself was a few levels stronger in combat power, and there were high-end forces such as elite swordsmen to help out, which was completely crushed. .

Of course, Quill did not regard the Guards brought by Orang as his own, and only reported the casualties of the North Army.

"Go and call General Orang and the Left Chancellor."

"Yes, my lord!"

After the attack, the North Army was completely blocked around the carriage, and Zuo Xiang and General Orang never saw Richard for the first time.

After Richard's instructions, Zuo Xiang and Ao Lang were led by a small officer of the Northern Army through the blockade of the Northern Army, and hurried to the carriage.

"Lord Richard!"

The two came to the carriage and gave a salute. Li Cha was not polite and immediately asked:

"Two, what does the kingdom mean, why did I just get attacked by the Imperial Guard when I arrived in the capital."

"Lord Richard, this is definitely not what Your Majesty meant. Someone must have taken the opportunity to frame the blame. You can't be fooled by them."

"But so many people have heard it. Before the assassin died, he was still shouting long live His Majesty."

"What's more, someone has already identified them. These corpses wearing the armor of the Praetorian Guards are real sergeants of the Praetorian Guards, and the leader is the flag leader of the Second Banner Regiment of the Third Army of the Praetorian Guards. This is the old unit of the Praetorian Guard."

"Rain Si" has always paid attention to the layout in the Golden Dragon Capital. Although the intelligence network is not as deeply rooted as the black prison, but like the situation of the Praetorian Guards, this kind of information that is placed in the light is still well understood.

These Guardsmen who came to attack were not only serious troops, but also the ones with higher numbers.

The first number represents that this troop was not urgently expanded later, but an old troop left over from the Sol period. Normally, it should be the most loyal existence to Rennes.

"Lord Richard, His Majesty Ren will never have any thoughts of harming you. If it is His Majesty Ren's order, the Guards will not only dispatch this person, and at least more than a hundred divine crossbows will be arranged on the streets on both sides. "

"And Princess Messiah is also on the carriage. Who does not know in the kingdom, Princess Messiah is His Majesty Ren's favorite daughter, and His Majesty can't hurt His Royal Highness."

Aurang then tried his best to defend, for fear that Richard would misunderstand something.

"Oh, maybe it's because I'm afraid that the action is too big and I will notice it?"

In fact, Li Cha believed that this matter had nothing to do with Ren. After all, based on his understanding of Ren, he knew that the other party could not be so stupid.

"My dear, the father will not do such a thing, you have to believe the father."

"Well, I believe it will not be ordered by His Majesty Ren. It should be ordered by another group of people with ulterior motives."

Messiah listened to it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but defend Renn. Li Cha was habitually wanting to take care of Zuo Xiang and Aolang, but seeing an anxious expression, Messiah could only give up. , This silly girl was about to cry in a hurry.

Although the Charlman family is a group of ruthless people, the relationship between family members is weak.

But she is very friendly to female members. Messiah has never been treated too harshly by Ren since she was a child, and she has not started intrigue since she was sensible like several princes.

The relationship with the family members is not bad, and they have experienced family affection. If Richard and Ren turned their faces, it would definitely be the most uncomfortable for Messiah to be caught in the middle.

Richard kept patting the head of Messiah, soothing the anxious Messiah, and without thinking too long, he commanded:

"Continue to the palace, don't delay."

What was going on, he would know when he saw Ren. Even if it was the Dragon Pool and the Tiger's Den in the palace, Li Cha was confident enough to retreat.

He didn't believe that Ren would do anything to him, but he also didn't believe Ren's control over the capital would be so low.

This is Richard's confidence in an old Yin coin.

This is the old lair of the Black Prison. It is enough for a group of Guards to attack him. Two Divine Mighty Crossbows are a bit too much. This kind of military weapon level equipment should be strictly managed.

Moreover, this reinforced Shenwei crossbow is much larger in weight and size than the Northern Army's. It was placed in ambush on both sides of the street, and the rain was hidden. How could there be some news in the black prison?

"My lord, the capital is not safe, do you still want to enter the palace?"

"Should we exit the city first, and plan when the troops from Lady Catherine meet in the capital together?"

After Richard's order was issued, Gru and other system heroes didn't say anything. They thought about the problem a little more simply, and generally only acted according to Richard's order.

On the other hand, the local officers, such as Quill and several great knights of the Northern Army, were a little hesitant and put forward different suggestions.

"According to what you mean, should I still summon Sandro and the others, the army will converge in the Golden Dragon Capital, and let the kingdom explain it?"

After annihilating the main force of the orcs, the army did not go south together, but split up under Richard's order.

The biggest one was the local army of the Northern Army led by Richard, mixed with some system heroes and troops, and continued to travel south by boat to the capital.

Catherine brought Ser Murak, giants, and dragons with some high-end combat power, and cooperated with the undead army to clean up the scattered orc army all the way, and the goal was the city of Klais, the portal of the capital city, which was besieged by the orcs before.

Quill was silent when asked. In fact, according to their thoughts, if there were orcs, they would fight the orcs first. The orcs were no longer a big problem, and the threat was greatly reduced.

Taking this opportunity to lift the kingdom together is naturally the most in line with the interests of the Northland. Now that the site of the Northland and the River Valley, the entire group has swelled to the extreme.

These two sites are not the kind of large barren desert dominated by the Ross family in the Western Region.

Although there are many brave miners in the Western Frontier who can provide high-quality soldiers for the Western Frontier Army, a small amount of grassland has raised the best Western Frontier horses in the human kingdom.

However, the grain output in the western border is the biggest shortcoming. Not to mention the flow of population, most of the food must be purchased from the central plains. Although the western border army is strong, the foundation of the western border is simply not enough to support the western border. There are too many ideas.

But now the situation in the Northland Group and the Westland is completely different.

The river valley itself is extremely rich, densely populated, and very prosperous in business. After Moriel's iron-blooded suppression and Catherine's Huairou rule, it has reached a new level in a short period of time.

Although the northern land is a bitter and cold land, it is only relative to the plentiful land of the Central Plains. As long as it is adapted to the cold climate, the grain harvest on the large black land is not low.

Coupled with the expulsion of the ogres, the Northland controlled the pastoral areas of the Wilderness.

The Northland can not only feed a population of 70 to 80 million people with food, but also developed the wilderness originally occupied by ogres for grazing. After the introduction of western horses and red flame horses, they will soon be able to produce higher-quality war horses.

The quality of ordnance equipment is also first-class, and there is no shortcoming from food supply to armament.

Moreover, the Jinlong River flows from the north to the south, and the natural danger of Zhenbeiguan is controlled by Li Cha. Just like this time when the northern army went south to fight the orcs, starting from Piaoxuecheng, the army can go directly south to threaten the Jinlongjiang by water. To the Central Great Plains and the Golden Dragon Capital.

The initiative is completely in the hands of Beidi, and it is a thorn in the back of any ruler who lives in the Golden Dragon City. It is hard to imagine that such a monster-like group can live in peace with the central government of the kingdom.

Not to mention the kingdom's suspicions, even Quill, a group of generals in the north, couldn't trust them.

The time and place are right and the people are all in place. It is a great opportunity to replace it with hands.

Therefore, even if Richard gave the order, Quill and several great knights of the Northern Army actually planned to persuade him.

Richard's tone seemed to be a little dissatisfied. After hearing Richard's questioning, Quill only felt a lot of pressure, and was watched by Richard's eyes. This man killed ogres, kobolds and even some unruly humans in the wilderness. Slave hunting team, butcher-level figures with blood on their hands were sweating nervously on their foreheads.

Quill didn't dare to pick up Li Cha's words. The direction of the Army of the Undead's advance was set by Li Cha. He could only skip this question and knelt on one knee and said:

"My lord! Your safety is of the utmost importance."

"My order is to continue to the palace."

"Yes, my lord!"

After Richard's order was confirmed again, the knight in charge of driving started to drive the carriage.

Quill didn't dare to continue to persuade him, so he could only mount the horse again and follow closely beside the carriage.

"Quick, keep up!"

Quill spoke submissively in front of Richard, but turned around and ordered, but he was full of anger.

Under Quill's organization, the Northland Army regrouped in a short period of time, and soon surrounded the carriage according to the previous formation. Ten elite swordsmen also returned to the side of the carriage and opened the way.

It's just that the group of people that Aurang brought were completely chaotic after an attack. Under the organization of Aurang and the Left Prime Minister, a group of gorgeously dressed guards lined up in front of the carriage and followed behind the carriage.

Because of the attack, the crowd that had greeted them dispersed, and the doors and windows on both sides of the street were basically closed. Occasionally, a few daring people dared to sneak up to observe the movements of the carriage and the Northern Army.

The streets became very empty and more spacious. Walking on the full fifty-meter wide main street, the speed of the entire team became much faster.

The palace, in an unremarkable room in the apse.

Ren was wearing casual clothes, sitting on a reclining chair and closing his eyes.

Varys, the intelligence chief of the Black Prison, was standing respectfully beside Ren and reporting the situation.

"Your Majesty, the King of the North was attacked, and the attackers were basically soldiers and officers of the Praetorian Guard."

"Is Messiah not hurt?"

"His Royal Highness the Princess was not injured."

"That's good, what's the reaction of that kid Li Cha?"

Ren did not ask what the result of the attack was. He was completely certain that the attack would not pose any threat to Richard, so he directly asked him what his reaction was.

"I'm on my way to the palace, I should be there in two or three hours."

"Um."

Ren opened his eyes and hummed softly, not knowing what it meant.

Then he continued to ask:

"Any clues?"

"Yes, some suspected targets have been locked, and the Black Prison will collect further evidence."

"Does the black jail also need evidence to do things?"

Ren's words made Varys choked a little. After all, a secret agency like the Black Prison sometimes acts domineering, and they have done a lot of arresting people without evidence.

In any case, the thing that turned out to be a trick must have happened more than once in the black prison.

On weekdays, even Varys didn't bother to ask about such trivial matters, but after all, he couldn't be on the stage. Varys didn't know how to answer Ren's question.

Fortunately, Renne skipped the topic after knocking it out, and then ordered:

"Give me a list of all suspects."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Also, let the Imperial Guards open the gate of Miyagi to welcome the carriage of the King of the North."

"Also~www.mtlnovel.com~ allows the King of the North to enter the palace directly without being examined."

"Your Majesty, there are thousands of soldiers of the Northern Army behind the carriage of the King of the Northern Territory. In addition, there is already a legion of the Northern Territory Army entering the Golden Dragon Capital. It is not safe to open the palace gate directly."

"They've all entered the capital, and you're still worried about Miyagi."

"How about letting him bring the soldiers in?"

"It happens that the school grounds in Xiyuan are empty, so let the Beidi army go to Xiyuan after entering the palace."

"Can…"

"Come on, make sure the palace gate is wide open when Li Cha arrives, don't make me look stingy."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Just like Quill couldn't persuade Richard, although Varys was Ren's confidant, he couldn't persuade Ren as well and could only convey it according to Ren's orders.

A few hours later, the team arrived in front of the wide-open Miyagi...
