Chapter 1690: The Army Departs

"Be careful, Dozo. Can't you save me a child?" A woman wearing an apron said helplessly. She raised her head and saw that her eldest son, Dozo, was leading his younger siblings to the roof. climb.

The boy named Dozo was only ** years old, with vivid eyes, and he quickly climbed to the roof of his house so that he could see the street below. The boy turned around and shouted, "Hurry up, you guys are so slow, you won't be able to see them after a while."

His younger siblings quickly climbed up and came to the eldest brother with hands and feet. Several children sat on the edge of the roof and looked at the street below. Numerous triangular flags were hung on both sides of the street, and the royal double lion golden flag hung from the lampposts on both sides. Knights in fresh clothes and angry horses stood on both sides of the street, and guards in silver armor maintained order in the street.

Both sides of the street are full of people from the imperial capital. Today is the day of the empire's expedition. The imperial army will join the army of the Grand Duke of the South and head to the Shadow Plain together to fight to the death with the Shadow Principality and that monster army.

So all the people in the imperial capital came to see them off, and there were their fathers, husbands, sons or brothers in the army going out. Everyone hopes that they can return safely, even if this is just a luxury.

Of course, not all troops will pass through the city. Strictly speaking, today's march in the city is more of a ceremony for Julian to send off Allen.

When the two Zanner horns in front of Fort Dawn blew the deep and distant sound, people let go of the white doves they held in their hands, hoping that these little guys who flew into the sky could bring peace to the country. Standing on the buildings on both sides of the street, Christian believers sprinkled flowers on the street, heralding the blessing of the gods. In the distance, the singing of the choir came from the recently completed cathedral, amidst the flying pigeons, flowers falling, and melodious singing. The knights on both sides of the King's Road raised their horns and blew their horns to welcome the team that came down from Dawn Mountain and was about to leave the city via the King's Road.

The little boy Duo Zuo said excitedly: "Here we come, look over there."

He pointed to the end of the street, where there was nothing to see yet, but his younger siblings were still looking forward with excitement. A moment later, a magnificent white horse leaped into people's sight. The tall horse sitting on that tall horse was the young emperor of the current Balegon Empire. The emperor was dressed in military uniform, even though he didn't intend to drive himself to conquer, but the majestic armor still made the emperor look extraordinary.

People shouted "Your Majesty" and knelt down and bowed one by one. So from a distance, the crowd fell one by one like straw blown by the wind.

Dozo's small hands trembled excitedly, just behind the young emperor, a black horse came into the boy's sight. On the war horse wearing a gold-patterned armor on a black background, was riding a man in a black-gold full-body helmet. The man was very young, holding a black and gold helmet in his hand, with a bright red feather adorning it. The man holding the helmet has silvery white hair,

In sharp contrast to the armor on the body. Holding the rein with one hand, he exuded an indescribable nobility and majesty.

The little boy even felt that this man was more like the king of a country than their emperor.

He knew that that was the Grand Duke of the South, a legend of the empire. He is also the only big man who is qualified to walk beside the emperor in the whole country. It's just that the little boy didn't know that the grand duke was so young. Originally, he thought the other party was an old man with a big white beard.

Behind the young emperor and the Grand Duke of the Southern Territory, there were several tall war horses, and a woman sat on each of the two horses in front. One with noble long golden hair, she was wearing a silver-white robe with golden armor protecting important parts of her body. There seemed to be infinite beauty in those green eyes, and when she stared at her, everyone felt calm; beside that goddess-like figure, another woman was flamboyant. She was wearing light armor with black stripes on a red background, and her light red skin exposed in the air showed a full exotic style. Her long black hair was tied up high, forming a ponytail hanging behind her head. On her waist, hung a gorgeous bright red long sword, holding the hilt of her mighty like a Valkyrie.

Behind these two women with very different styles are the soldiers and horses of the brigade, the knights in fresh clothes and angry horses, the infantry in bright armor, the musketeers in unison, the powerful heavy axemen, and the soldiers walking on a frame. Heavy gunner next to the artillery.

The team marched mightily along the King's Road towards the city gate, and flowers kept falling on them, staying on their helmets or shoulders.

Allen smiled and looked at the crowd along the way, when Lucy trotted to his side and said: "I don't know how many people will not be able to return home this time. In fact, it might be better if we were allowed to act alone." Faster and more efficient."

"Of course I know, if it's just us acting on our own. I will directly call the starship on standby outside the planet, so that the army can be transported to the Shadow Plain in one day. But this war cannot be fought by us, Heaven Star More people also need to experience war for themselves, so that they will know that peace is hard to come by."

Allen paused and said: "And after this war, within ten years, the empire must take the route of recuperation. This is the best thing for Edward and the others."

At this time, there was a whisper from the crowd. It turned out that a boy fell from a small three-story building. Without thinking about it, Allen raised his hand towards the boy. The boy was suspended in mid-air, gently supported by the force field released by Allen. Allen put him down slowly, nodded with a smile, and then focused on the front.

It was Dozo who fell down the stairs, and the little boy was so excited that he accidentally fell. Seeing that Alan saved himself, he shouted excitedly to his brothers and sisters upstairs: "Look, the Grand Duke saved me."

His mother quickly squeezed out of the crowd, and hugged the boy back amidst people's good-natured laughter.

The team drove out of the imperial capital, and drove out of the new Great Wall. Behind the Great Wall, one by one phalanxes could be seen far away. That is the 100,000 soldiers assembled by the empire, led by Rodke, who will join Allen's army on the way and go to the Shadow Plain together.

"I'll send it here." Julian said, pulling the rein.

Allen came to his side and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, just wait for our good news."

Julian firmly held Alan's shoulder: "Although we are not real brothers, I already regard you as my brother in my heart. Grand Duke Alan, you must come back."

He said this very forcefully and loudly, so that the people around could hear him, so all the ministers who saw him off had different expressions. Allen nodded heavily, glanced at Lucy's second daughter, passed Julian, and led the army towards the front phalanx.

The army passed like a tide on both sides of Julian, and at last merged into the great army. The horn is raised again, and the army marches out!
