Riding and Slashing

Chapter 415 I also plan to surrender
"Wendy, Alina, don't get me wrong, I'm not sacrificing myself..."

Li Ang pointed to his forehead: "But I shouldn't be in danger, Kavala is still with me, as long as the leader of Malitin is not controlled by Kavala, I will be fine- anyway - they don't Know me. Instead, you two must leave, or if you are captured, it will be really troublesome."

"Then what if you are captured?"

Although she knew what Li Ang said was reasonable, Wendy pouted.

"Then you can bring soldiers back to save me even if you run out..."

Li Ang spread his hands, as if it was a matter of course: "Okay, that's the decision. Don't waste any more time, let's get rid of those idiots blocking the door first."

Wendy sighed, she would definitely obey Li Ang's order, and since it was decided, she would not say anything more.

Alina didn't have a mother-in-law - she opened the door without saying a word.

Those who attacked the Governor's Palace were all members of the Viper Force.

The combat power of these secret agents is indeed not strong, but the Snake Worshipers are not afraid of death, so they can temporarily block the Governor's Mansion.

There is a battle in the courtyard outside the door, and the corpses on the ground are basically poisonous snakes and spies. It seems that the Silver Hand has already gained the upper hand.

But Klose still led his brothers to defend cautiously - Li Ang was injured, Klose didn't dare to be careless, he laid out several rows of defensive arrays in the courtyard.

And the Viper Squad seems to be divided into two halves - one half is desperately attacking the formation of the Silver Hand, while the other half is retreating timidly.

"It seems that not everyone is under control... Alina, hurry up and order those who are retreating to get out."

Li Ang pointed to the courtyard, and then shouted loudly: "Silver Hand! Don't worry about those who retreat, just kill those who are not afraid of death!"

In the middle of the courtyard lay Cassian's body on his side, with a sword stuck in his back - obviously, he was killed by a sudden attack by his "subordinates".

This should have been killed by Kavala when he let the poisonous snake troops attack the governor's mansion. It is estimated that Kavala did this for a short period of time when he did not control Malbert.

Since Cassian, the leader, needs to be killed, it means that a large part of the poisonous snake troops are not soul-controlled—for example, the half that is retreating.

"Scatter the attack!"

Klose raised his sword.

"what!"

The Silver Hands no longer maintained the defensive array, and started a counterattack.

"Yes... a real poisonous snake will not fight desperately..."

Alina also understood, looked at the highly polarized spies outside, and ordered loudly: "If you think you are still an imperial soldier, stand on the side of the courtyard!"

The half of secret agents who were retreating seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and obediently retreated to the side corridor.

There was enough space in the courtyard for the great sword to fully exert its power.

"Klose, I'll give you 5 minutes to get rid of the enemies here!"

Li Ang turned his head to look, and then asked Alina: "Do you know the flag of that fleet? It's actually purple. Could it be the Emperor Maritim?"

There is no wall on the south side of the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion, because the south side is a coastal cliff, under the cliff is a reef beach, and a little farther away is the sea. Now the fleet getting closer and closer to the sea can be clearly seen.

The flag of the fleet is purple, and the coat of arms on it is a burning sword and shield. Only the edges of the sword and shield are outlined, and only the flame pattern is orange.

In Maritín, purple is the only color used by emperors, because purple is very difficult to dye these days and the cost is very high - pure purple dye can only be extracted from one kind of conch, and the price of purple robes is usually the same as that of white clothes More than twenty times that of the gown.

However, Li Ang didn't know much about Maritin. He only knew the general situation of each country, and he knew very little about the characters in Maritin.

"Not the Emperor...that would be Kaspers."

Arina didn't answer, and it was Arles who spoke: "Kaspers is the leading nobleman in the Maritine Empire. Because of his outstanding military exploits, he was granted the title of 'Your Majesty' by the Maritign Emperor, and he was allowed to use purple flags and clothes. robe, so he was privately called the 'Deputy Emperor' by the Malitians."

It seems that this intelligence distributor has a lot of knowledge.

"Not a king but has the title of His Majesty? Vice Emperor?"

Li Ang raised his eyebrows, with a feeling of 'nine thousand years old': "Is he very powerful or has an extraordinary background?"

"...His Majesty Caspers was born in a prominent family, and his bloodline can be traced back to the emperor of the First Bacchus Empire. He controls half of the land and military power of the Maritine Empire, and he is still very young. He is only 30 years old now... Oh, it should be now 31 years old."

Alos seemed to be reciting some intelligence letter, speaking very fast, but always in the same tone...

"What did you memorize it from?"

Li Ang was almost laughing. Now he found out that Arles should have a particularly good memory. No wonder Justus asked him to distribute information.

"From a secret letter trying to recruit my father...it was written by that Kaspers last year, and he also tried to marry Alina, and his tone was a bit...arrogant."

Arles looked at Li Ang, then at Alina: "I only gave the letter to His Majesty Mario, sorry, father won't let me tell you about this."

"A foreign enemy came to poach the wall. This is the state information of the empire. I was not in the territory of the empire at the time. I shouldn't have told me about this...Why do you want to apologize?"

Alina shook her head indifferently.

Arles sighed: "This is not state intelligence. It was Kaspers' own intention to recruit his father, because there is no mention of Emperor Amoryan VII in his letter."

"Young, well-born, powerful, and even dared to go beyond the emperor and directly 'surrender' Justus... And the letter of surrender is all in an arrogant and domineering tone, which shows that he has a rather arrogant personality..."

Li Ang frowned and thought for a while: "Wouldn't the emperor of Maritim be afraid of him?"

"He has brought his fleet to Pendor Continent, how could he not be afraid... There seems to be a reason for Kavala to follow him."

Alina looked at Li Ang, then at Wendy: "Wendy, can you do me a favor?"

"Okay, what do you want me to do?"

Wendy agreed without thinking.

"Help me take Ales to Siyuan City, and let General Kryon come to support Di Lingang——I don't want to run away now."

Alina took off the Orator's Sword from her waist and handed it to Wendy: "There is also a garrison in Marasburg along the way. You can use this sword to mobilize them."

"what?"

Wendy was dumbfounded, and looked at Li Ang: "This..."

Just as he was talking, Klose ran over: "Your Majesty, the enemy has been eliminated!"

"Go Wendy, Lisa Dilan doesn't need to ask for help, he will come to pick me up after he has dealt with the Snake Cult's troops."

Li Ang looked at Alina, nodded and signaled Wendy to go quickly.

……

After half an hour.

Wendy had already left Emperor Lingang with Arles, and Li Ang let her ride Alice away.

Alina was on the south wall of Emperor's Port, watching the Malitin fleet that was about to approach the port.

Troops have been manned in the port - still guys from the Silver Hand.

Klose probably has a good relationship with the port of Emperor Lingang. This is the second time he has fought a port defense battle in Emperor Lingang, and the last time it was also to help the Bacchus Empire resist the Snake Worship Cult.

"Besides the port, where else can we stop and land?"

Li Ang also observed the surrounding situation on the city wall.

"There's also the shallow bay to the east, which has a lot of sandy beaches. But we don't have enough manpower to defend there."

Alina pointed in the direction of the Governor's Mansion.

The Governor's Mansion is located to the southeast of Emperor Lingang, which is actually the place where they first saw the fleet.

There are a lot of sandy beaches to the southeast of Dilingang, but there are cliffs on top of the sandy beaches—the sandy beaches will be completely submerged when the sea tide rises, and the waves will hit the cliffs very smooth.

At the same time, the west side of the beach is the reef area, which is the reef area under the cliff to the south of the courtyard of the Governor's Mansion.

This is because the cliff has been impacted by waves for a long time, and huge stones have fallen and deposited.

The Governor's Mansion itself is actually a part of the city defense, the wall is directly connected to the city wall, and the wide atrium can be used as a military station - the Bacchus are very good at building according to local conditions.

If there were more manpower, and the port in the south and the beach in the east could be controlled, then Emperor Lingang would be able to hold on.

But now there is a shortage of manpower, and Malitin's fleet seems to have at least 5000 people, and the city defense facilities of Emperor Lingang were completely destroyed when they were occupied by the Snake Worship Cult.

There is no trebuchet, no wood, and no kerosene. Except that the city wall is basically intact, it can be said that there is nothing missing——Emperor Marius worked hard to drive the Snake Cult army out of Emperor Lingang. Naturally, it can be used. Already used.

There are not even a few ships in the port, and it is impossible to block the port with a sunken ship.

There are some crossbows and crossbow bolts, but the Silver Hands are not good at using them...

In other words, both the port and the beach may not be able to defend.

"Alina, you don't plan to run, do you plan to surrender?"

Li Ang asked suddenly.

"Ah...you guessed it? As expected of my teacher..."

Alina looked at Li Ang in surprise: "I'm thinking about saying something...I want to feign surrender."

"Cough...Actually, when I asked you to leave together, I planned to feign surrender...At that time, I didn't expect that Kaspers would have your idea."

Li Ang also smiled.

"Haha, then what identity are you planning to use to surrender?"

Alina smiled too.

"Of course I use the identity of Ales, the governor's son. He doesn't have much fighting power, but his status is enough to save his life. It's just right..."

Li Ang shook the robe on his body - this is a blue off-the-shoulder robe often worn by young Bacchus nobles, summer clothes, just suitable for the wounds on his left shoulder and left chest to breathe.

"Then you are my brother now."

Arina took out an armband made of pure gold from her bosom, and clasped it on Li Ang's right arm: "This is my father's, representing the family inheritance."

The armband representing the inheritance of the Justus family is in Alina's hands. It seems that Justus really prefers his daughter.

"Then set up a banquet at the Governor's Mansion to entertain the distinguished guests... Klose, work!"

Li Ang clutched his wound and slowly moved down the city.

……

Emperor Lingang port.

Dozens of warships sailed in slowly and anchored in the deserted port.

"Your Majesty Kaspers, there is no one here..."

Several soldiers got off the boat, looked around, and reported loudly.

"Sure enough, there is no defense... It seems that my dreams are real! I am actually the inheritor of His Majesty Kavala..."

On the bow of the flagship, a man in black armor took off the strange Malitin helmet on his head, revealing a sturdy face.

This is His Majesty Kaspers.

Kaspers came from a prominent family, and his lineage can be traced back to the emperor of the First Empire of Guacos—in terms of lineage alone, his family is more noble than the emperor Amorian of Maritim...

Since he was a child, Kaspers received strict military education. He was skilled in martial arts, and became a general of the Maritine Empire when he was young. For Si, this is just his starting point.

However, in addition to how to use weapons and dispatch soldiers, Kaspers is most interested in the immortal legends of those conquerors.

How the "Magician" Claudius the Great lured the barbarian troops to come to the open battlefield selected by the empire to fight the imperial army head-on and win a big victory, so that the barbarian tribes surrendered to him and became vassals of the empire.

How did the "Jatu Butcher" Augustus the Great withstand the huge conservative forces to carry out military reforms, learn Jatu's clothing and combat methods, and then launch the legendary Jatu Punishment Expedition, using Jatu on the prairie? The Tu people's proud cavalry shot defeated the Jiatu tribal coalition forces;

Especially the invincible legend hundreds of years ago - "Pandor Supreme King" Kavala... It is said that the Supreme King is courageous and resourceful, upright and tolerant but cruel and violent, and has won countless brilliant victories. Defeated, and all his life on the journey.

The Supreme King was even able to defeat the old Bacchus Empire, which was in full swing at that time, with a weak force, and even caused the empire to split...

Speaking of which, the establishment of the Maritine Empire was all thanks to the expedition of Supreme King Kavala.

Kaspers was certainly one of many people in Malitin who worshiped the High King.

But unlike most of the Malitine nobles, Kaspers not only worshiped those ancient legendary conquerors, but also took actions to emulate the legends—he would take the lead, fight side by side with the soldiers, and build meritorious deeds with his own actions, so He was universally loved by soldiers.

As an adult, Kaspers was skilled in bow and horse, and was good at the art of war. As a senior general of the empire, he led the army to fight everywhere and gained full experience in countless wars.

He won many border conflicts with Jatu and crushed the rebellions of the Malitian usurpers many times. Many people called this famous young general "Augustus reborn".

Kaspers' feats and strengths were culminated in a few years - he became Marshal of the Empire and controlled half of the Empire's army, but he was still doing...

After Kaspers once again repelled the Jatus on the frontier, in response to Kaspers' loyalty and military exploits, Emperor Maritim granted Kaspers the title of 'His Majesty' for the first time, making him a man of the empire The honor of being above all people...

At the same time, the emperor entrusted the newly appointed His Majesty Caspers with a glorious mission - to conquer the chaotic Pendor Continent and fulfill the "great ideal" of the Maritine Empire for generations!
The Emperor even allowed Kaspers to own all the lands he captured in Pendor.

Is this the suspicion that inevitably arises after rewarding nothing?Or was the Emperor really planning to give Kaspers a chance to rule another continent?

Maybe both.

But Kaspers took up the task without hesitation.

Perhaps, this is the dream career for him - because his ability to lead the army not only comes from learning and training since he was a child, but also from the victorious Supreme King in his dream!

One who can often get help from the Supreme King in his dreams, of course he is the successor of the Supreme King... It is the rebirth of the Supreme King Kavala!

At least Kaspers thought so.
