Macho Wars

The three princes, who were attacking the main train station, didn't care much at first after learning that an enemy of a division had suddenly appeared on their right, and directly ordered the 85th Division in this direction to block the enemy's reinforcements.As a result, after a wave of fights, I found that this idea was almost pierced!

Seeing the enemy's aggressive approach, the self-proclaimed elite frontier army has a tendency to be overwhelmed. The third prince Rao is brave and fearless, and he is afraid that he will fight too hard and expose his flanks.In desperation, he could only postpone his attack on the main train station and mobilize troops to turn around and reinforce the left wing.

Seeing the enemy's strength rapidly increasing, Dragon also stopped the attack and began to stabilize the front.The location they attacked is exactly on the east bank of the Dujuan River, where the Imperial Army crossed the river.

This position is comparable to the opponent’s waist and eyes. It is possible to cut the opponent in the middle with a single stab. The troops on both sides of the strait are difficult to support each other effectively. The First Marine Division put its knife on this place, and the faces of the three princes suddenly seemed to be lost A kidney is so ugly!

Chapter 420

With the first shot of the prince group, no matter how unwilling Howard and other rationalists in the central government are, they must admit at this moment that the Sidney Empire has once again fallen into a terrible vortex called "civil war" after a few hundred years. .

With the support of the aristocratic Senate, the royal family immediately issued a statement condemning it, officially defining the prince group as a "rebel armed", and warned the opposing soldiers to immediately lay down their weapons and surrender, not to go further and further on the road of no return of treason. !

It's a pity that although the words of this impassioned battle in the Senate were screaming loudly, the princes did not kill them at all.Even many local nobles sit on the wall with an ambiguous attitude, and have no intention of responding to the call of the central government.

The current Central Military Region still has 17 divisions and 220,000 armies. The paper data is more than twice that of the rebels, and the equipment level is on the same line.

However, after the actual fight, everyone discovered that the seemingly well-equipped and well-trained Central Army Corps is not the opponent of the Border Army Corps in actual combat effectiveness.On the contrary, the few former colonial divisions who were looked down upon by others were able to fight one by one.

Among them, the 92nd Infantry Division was the first to fight. Their station was not the closest to the main train station, but they were the first to arrive among all aided troops. They successfully rushed to the infantry regiment stationed at the main station before being defeated.

During the colonial period, the first division commander of this unit was Major General Oduin. In the confrontation exercises, they lost three times their strength and lost to the independent Marine Corps trained by Dragon.

Although the exercise caused the 92nd Division to lose a big face, it also benefited them a lot.Afterwards, although Alduin didn't say anything, he secretly referred to Dragon's training program to rebuild his own troops.

Unfortunately, Auduin later had a car accident and failed to catch up with the first batch of Imperial Expeditionary Forces, so the 92nd Division was cheaper than others, and he later took over the 95th Infantry Division and arrived in the Far East in the second batch.

After the 92nd Division rushed to the main train station, under the onslaught of two rebel divisions, it independently supported it for three hours, until the arrival of other reinforcements.When the soldiers on both sides got angry, a hand-to-hand fight broke out.

Howard looked at these brave and well-fought imperial soldiers, but now they were killing each other, and his heart was mixed for a time.

The fierce fighting lasted for a day and a night, and the two sides had to temporarily silence.The main train station changed hands several times, and finally it was firmly controlled by the Central Army.However, the actual losses of the rebels who seem to have not taken advantage are far less than their opponents, and intelligence shows that their follow-up reinforcements are on their way at the moment.

Taking advantage of this brief ceasefire period, the three princes also handed in their letter to Howard. The conditions were similar to what they had discussed before, except that the object of the throne was replaced by himself.

In the palace at this time, Alicia was sitting by the window, staring at the blood-red sunset outside, thinking of her fiance on the battlefield.

Since that night three days ago, Alicia has been worried about Dragon all the time.Fortunately, they received news shortly after returning to the palace along the secret road. The reinforcements rushed to the Central Military Headquarters building in time. The Dragon was fine, but he immediately rushed to the front.Yunlong also left the city to return to the airport after entrusting his daughter Irene to her and Fu Mi.

Although Alicia didn't have to step on the battlefield, the waiting time in the palace was extremely difficult.

She found that her mother and queen had lost all the majesty and calmness of the past, her already mean character became more irritable and surly, and she took blame for the maids at every turn. Once she became angry, she even persuaded her as a daughter. Can't help.

In desperation, Alicia could only take her relatives and friends to hide in the relatively quiet and deserted corner of Nangong, and only waited for the situation outside to settle down before leaving this increasingly strange family home.

However, after Alicia hid, she discovered that there was still an acquaintance here, her good friend and "little mother" Karen.

Since that day witnessing the fall of the old emperor Sidney XIV at the wedding banquet, Karen has become a transparent person without any care.Because everyone's eyes have followed the crown that rolled down from the old emperor's head.

Susan, who was promoted to the Queen Mother, once wanted to give this woman a cup of "wine of eternal sleep" like she did to Princess Lin Ji, but she finally gave up under the persuasion of her third brother Levins. This thought, in the name of "resting", sent Karen into Nangong, planning to throw her there to fend for herself.

Karen didn't care at all about it. After all the misfortunes in her life, she had long been accustomed to being friendly with pain and despair. The cold palace that was isolated from the world was a quiet and good place for her.

It's just that she didn't expect that the empire was also in turmoil because of the throne dispute, and she and Alicia unexpectedly reunited in Nangong, and the other party also brought her news about the man.

Karen, who had expressed her heart through drunken madness and failed to get any clear response from the other party, became discouraged even though she knew it would be such a result, determined to forget this piece of her own wishful thinking.

However, when she stepped into the wedding hall with the old emperor as a martyr, destiny made a joke with her.

The moment the old emperor fell, Karen's heart was extremely complicated.After all, the old emperor was really kind to her, and Karen was not hard-hearted, and did not move at all.

Therefore, when she saw that the other party had passed away, her sadness made tears flow across her eyes.What was completely different from this grief was a kind of gratitude...and hope that made her feel ashamed.

It is this complicated and contradictory mentality that has kept Karen in a state of anxiety these days, and Alicia’s appearance is undoubtedly like dropping a big rock into her already closed heart like a well, and immediately aroused the layer. Layers of ripples.

Alicia couldn't help but sighed at the thought of the two being speechless that day.She sympathized with the misfortunes that Karen had experienced, and because of some "coincidences", she unexpectedly learned that the other party really wanted it.

However, Karen's identity is after all the wife of Queen Tarrance and her father Sidney XIV.As long as this ethical identity is still there, secular power is the biggest obstacle, even if she doesn't mind Alicia...

Don't mind yourself?Gosh!What am I thinking?

Thinking of this, Alicia was suddenly startled, and she was startled by a certain thought that came to her mind.She shook her head hurriedly, and patted both her cheeks fiercely, as if she wanted to forget all the rebellious thoughts.

At this moment, the knock on the door came from the door, and Alicia, who was taken aback, jumped up reflexively, making her emotionally nervous and even speaking unfavorably.

"Who, who, who!?"

"His Royal Highness, it's me, Sylvie. Toffee Karen just sent someone to spread the word, and she would like to invite you to dinner tonight. What do you think?"

Chapter 421

At dinner, Alicia came to the restaurant in Nangong as scheduled.

In a huge room, only Karen sat alone, quietly flipping through a book of poems, until Alicia walked to the front, she put down the book, and raised her head with a quiet smile.

"You're here."

"Well, just the two of us?"

"I didn't invite anyone, and besides you, I don't think anyone in this palace would be willing to accept an invitation from an ominous person like me."

After the death of the old emperor, although Karen was not involved in any way, various rumors about her flew inside and outside the palace.Many people secretly referred to Karen as the "ominous person", thinking that she had brought continuous bad luck to the empire and deliberately stayed away from her.

After all, Karen's life experience is indeed evil enough in addition to misery. It is really bad luck!Regarding these slanderous slanders, Karen didn't bother to explain anything.

After the two of them were seated, the maid quickly brought them a meal, and at this moment, there were a few rumbling cannons outside the window.Alicia and Karen were both people who had been in close contact with the war, so the sound of the guns was not very loud, and they just glanced out the window slightly without paying attention.

But several court maids were taken aback. The girl who was putting the tableware accidentally knocked over an empty wine glass, her face turned pale, and she knelt down in front of Alicia with a plop.

"Your Highness! I'm sorry! I, I'm not..."

"Get up, I won't blame you."

Looking at the young maid who was creeping on the ground with fear and sincerity, Alicia gently stretched out her hand to pull the other party up, comforting her with a few words.

Because the empress dowager saw that the heavens were coming crazy, the people in the palace had already tortured her nervously, trembling every day, for fear that she would be punished for making a small mistake.

Alicia tried to persuade her mother, hoping that she could be more tolerant to the waiters, but instead received a training.The old lady even ridiculed her, saying that she had forgotten the etiquette in the palace after marrying a rural talent for a few days.

This made Alicia deeply aware of how difficult it is to reason with an old woman in menopause!

Soon, the maids prepared a meal for the two, and then retired respectfully.Alicia and Karen had a small chat while eating. Karen pretended to inadvertently asked about the war outside the city, and brought the topic directly to the current situation.

Alicia couldn't help but let out a long sigh, obviously not optimistic.

As the situation in the imperial capital became increasingly tense and eventually evolved into a direct armed conflict between the Central Army and the local rebels, this metropolis that was longing for countless people in the past is now losing a large number of residents.

The nobles are running, the common people are at large!
