Macho Wars

Under the flash of reporters, Howard stepped aside and gave way to Sidney XV Andy behind him.The little boy looked a little nervous, and when Dragon saw the gorgeous scepter held tightly in his hand, he immediately knelt down on one knee in a knightly manner.

Upon seeing this, Andy stretched out his hand to place the scepter on Dragon's shoulder, tried to use a less calm tone, and announced loudly in public.

"In the name of the Sidney Royal Family, I... I hereby grant General Dragon Lee the title of First Marquis of the Empire in recognition of his outstanding contribution to defending the dignity of the Empire. Sir, you are willing to be loyal I!"

"Follow your will, Your Majesty."

Chapter 454: Rude Man

After the emperor completed the canonization, put away the scepter, Alicia walked up, followed by her personal maid Sylvie, the little maid was holding a brocade box, inside was a beautifully crafted finger, engraved with Li The family crest of the family, this is a token specially bestowed by the imperial royal family to the nobles above the marquis.

Alicia picked up the finger, first transferred it to the young emperor, and then transferred it to Dragon by the young emperor's hands. This was the completion of the entire canonization ceremony.

And hearing the young emperor canonize Dragon as a first-class marquis, most of the civil and military officials present showed a very surprised expression.Because this means that Dragon has set another new record after the title of "the youngest general in the empire".

Many people who have inquired about Dragon know that the origin of this Eastern Qin mixed blood can be said to be very low. It is more appropriate to say that it is a poor man rather than a commoner.

People of similar origin are unknown in the Empire’s army, but only one Dragon can rise rapidly in just a few years at an astonishing speed, just like a "civilian myth", so fast that many people Feel unreal.

First-class marquis, prince horse, ace army general, and brother-in-law of the young emperor, this series of titles are worn on the head, even in the aristocratic sequence, it is enough to be included in the top popular list, a new family of powerful officials, It seems to be rising.

of course!This has a major premise, that is, the young emperor must never fall.In case Filawie wins in the end, one of these people in front of him is counted as one, and all of them will die!

Speaking of it, the Central Group can still maintain its unity at present, and it has not become a mob of scattered sand. This is all thanks to Philawi's massacre in the imperial capital.

When the old emperor was still there, no one would have thought that the seemingly gentle Philavier would be such a cruel person, hundreds of nobles, who would kill if he said to kill, even without blinking his eyes, broken There is a feeling of collapse of a human setting.

But there are also smart people who understand that Firavi is just playing the role he should play when needed.When the old emperor was alive, he naturally wanted to be a virtuous and filial son, doing his best to please the emperor and win the appreciation of the other party.

In fact, he did very well. If Sidney XIV had not died suddenly at the wedding, giving the Senate a chance, the throne of the empire would have been steadily passed on to him. .

The result is now all right. The Senate successfully abolished the elders and fostered the young with a single operation.And Philavier, who has always been decisive in his work, is even more conscious of "Killing" from the beginning. He wants to solve all opponents once and for all, even if he has to bear a lot of notoriety for this.

Today’s central faction has been completely driven out of the imperial capital. Only a few provinces in the eastern coastal region and the colonies of the New World are still under their control, while Firavi succeeded in making the inland more inland by seizing the power of the imperial capital. A province has fallen, and most of the empire has fallen into his hands.

The situation is already quite unfavorable for the young emperor.

After the welcoming ceremony, Dragon followed Howard to the headquarters, and the young emperor and empress dowager also accompanied them for inspection.

As soon as the crowd arrived at the gate of the headquarters, an officer greeted him immediately, then lowered his head and whispered a few words in Howard's ear.Howard, who had a smile on his face, suddenly became cold.

"Dare he come back?"

"Just over the hall, the old marquis is here."

"Huh! I thought I could hide by calling a parent? Dreaming!"

Surrounded by Howard, a group of people came to the hall. As soon as Dragon entered the door, he saw a man standing not far away who made him and many Marines "remember".

Commander of the 71st Division, Banning Roswell!

In the Battle of Mount Doro, the 71st Division was easily defeated by the Rattlesnake Division, and the commander Banning escaped, leaving his troops behind, and fled back to Horn Harbor overnight.

After Banning came back, he found the family who had transferred with the Central Group as soon as possible, begging his elderly father to save his life.

Banning's father, the old Marquis of Roswell, was an old friend who had been on the battlefield with the first Emperor Sidney XIV, and was also a brother of Howard.

However, it was such a tiger father, but unfortunately, a dog came out of his family.

Banning became a general by relying on his family background and the drill camp he was quite good at. When he was not in war, he was indeed a great success, but as a result, a real battle was missed.

Banning, who knew he had committed a serious crime, could only cry to his old father in order to save his dog's life, hoping that he could come forward to help him intercede.Although the poor old marquis was so angry, he was his own son after all, and finally agreed softly.

The people on both sides met in the hall, and Benning saw that Dragon was there, and he stood side by side with Princess Alicia very affectionately, suddenly embarrassed.

When Dragoon saw the opponent, his expression suddenly changed, and then strode towards the opponent.

"General Li, it is true to see that you are safe and sound..."

"Fuck you!"

Before Banning could finish speaking, Dragon hit the opponent's face with a punch, followed by a kick, and then hit him on the ground.

"I'm fighting for thousands of brothers who died in battle!"

Since everything came too suddenly, until Dragon beat Banning and howled like a pig, everyone present was able to recover, but I don’t know if everyone was stupid, or Della. Gong Yi's evil spirit was too terrifying, and no one stepped forward to stop him.A few people have seen Banning upset for a long time, and even light a cigarette silently.

The empress dowager Susan had never seen such a brutal and violent unilateral beating. She looked at Dragon dumbfounded, and then turned to look at Howard, where the old god was.

"You, you just look at that?"

"Otherwise? If I couldn't stand up, I would have followed along."

"you……"

Howard didn't say a word, and none of the people present dared to step forward. Even Benning's old father just watched silently, as if it was not his son who was beaten up.

Under Dragoon's old punch, Banning was quickly beaten into a pig's head, and his entire face swelled in a circle, almost out of shape.

Howard saw that the fight was almost enough to make Dragon calm down, so he pushed the wheelchair forward and patted Dragon on the shoulder.

"Well, brat, it's almost done, not worth it."

Hearing Howard called himself, Dragon stopped and stood up. Alicia hurried up, holding up Dragon’s hitting hand, blowing painfully on the broken skin wound on the knuckles, and then using it carefully Bandage the handkerchief.

She cares more about her lover's hand than Banning's non-human face.

Chapter 455

Benning, who was beaten by a fat meal, lay on the ground and groaned. It wasn't until then that the old Marquis Roswell stepped forward, but when he opened his mouth he did not plead for his son.

"The dog is incompetent, I have listened to everything."

Hearing the words of the old Marquis of Roswell, Howard looked up at his old senior who had always respected him.The majestic and stalwart figure back then has now become dry and thin, and the old face reveals the hero's twilight, which made Howard could not help but sigh in his heart.

"Banning Roswell, in view of your major dereliction of duty in combat, I will remove all your duties and ranks from today in the name of the Supreme Command of the War, and you will be taken into prison by the military police, and the military court will decide how to deal with it. You punish. Now, quickly disappear from us."

In the face of the old senior, Howard eventually saved Banning's life, but apart from this bad life, nothing was left to him.

The Roswell family's title was downgraded to three successive ranks, and even the honorary fief was deprived of, and Banning was thrown into a military prison.Since Howard had greeted him in advance, no one dared to intercede with him. What awaited him may be more than ten years of hard work.

As for Dragon and the First Marine Division, thanks to their outstanding performance in the fight against the Northwestern Rebels, the whole army is a great reward for life and death.

Dragon was promoted to major general, and the position of deputy commander was transferred to the regular position. The former commander Kane Mountbatten was transferred to the Central Command and served as the Chief of Staff of the Army to assist Howard's work.Most of the remaining middle and lower-level officers have also been promoted to fill the vacancies of officers who sacrificed in the battle.

However, due to the greater losses of the First Marine Division in this battle, the total number of soldiers was more than 60% casualties, and all the heavy weapons were lost. Therefore, Howard decided to let the remaining troops of the First Marine Division with the royal family to withdraw to the New World. Rest.

As for the rebels, after the Northwest Army’s attempt to block the central army’s main corps failed in its combat plan, Firavi suspended the offensive and prioritized the forces at hand to consolidate the stability of the imperial capital and surrounding areas. This made both sides a rare opportunity. Respite.
