Episode 27: Wings of Dawn ③ Unrest

The nascent Assault Squad was superior in character, but there were many individualists, so there was one stuffiness, but they were finally starting to get on track.

I guess this was a good way for me to lead them all directly, without the Assault Squad appointing a troop leader in small numbers as compared to 30 other Squads.

It would have been easier later if we had subjugated a few people who were initially defiant in the name of training.

The Assault Squad had served to say that it would open a breakthrough in an important part of the enemy, and had become famous as a squad where the brave and distinctive gathered among the wings of dawn.

When the Assault Squad established its place in the regiment, it finally happened.

"The fall of His Majesty King Hubert II!!!

Messengers from the Wang capital jumped into a place where important members of the regiment, including myself and Eirich, were making a mockery while eating inside the tent of the camp.

All rise in unison.

"Finally!

"Everybody get back to your units and prepare for battle!

"Heavy Squad distributes arrows and bolts to each squad, no food needed!

Eirich's instructions fly. Bruno and each troop leader pop up simultaneously.

There are only thirty of my troops and a lot of equipment brought in on their own by individuals, so it won't take long compared to the other captains.

Eirich was also looking at the situation of the other troops as soon as he finished preparing for the first squad under his direct command.

After all, he seems to be one step better than the other commanders.

"What are you going to do now?

"Eigil or... we'll just be ready and waiting as we are now, and we'll have his orders in action"

You mean him, the Second Crown Prince.

"He's already on his way here. Exactly. The Chancellor's brother Wang is just old and not stupid, he'll be sensitive to this move. As a prince, I don't know what's going to happen until we get back together."

"When the prince arrives, are you going to beat him to the capital?

Eirich spread his hands out that he didn't know.

"If you beat him up for no reason, he's a rebel. How there is not a single Goldonian standing army if it deals properly with a few. It is only this time that the house disturbance of the governor's inheritance must be"

"Wait for the prince after all."

"You're right, we're his swords, we're not specialized in plotting."

"So you think it won't be like burning the whole capital?

There are also women in the king's capital, if things are going to be like a sea of fire, we will have to get them out of here first.

"If it works, it does. I guess it all depends on how he comes out."

I heard multiple horses running to block the conversation.

"Apparently you've arrived. You should hear the rest from him."

When I went outside, a large, six-headed carriage, disproportionate to the field, had just arrived escorted by several horsemen.

Everyone on the spot, including Eirich, kneels and drips his head.

As well as a carriage, one man gets off dressed to go to dinner.

The man raises his hand lightly as he runs around with a sharp eye that doesn't look good for a luxurious outfit.

Prince Eldio II, the founder of the Wings of Dawn, joined his own sword for the first time.

"Long time no see, Eirich."

"Long time no see, Your Highness"

Eirich answers with his face down with his knees on the ground.

"You don't need to thank me for what I did here. Face up, all of you."

When I looked at the Crown Prince again, I wondered if he was about thirty when he was old, and Rin's face was characterised by sharp eyes that felt royal pride and arrogance but still lived with ambition.

"Gentlemen! My beloved King, Your Majesty has been defeated!

The venue has already begun to gather other than those who know the true purpose of the regiment.

However, the King's fall did not see any particular upset or confusion in the information already conveyed.

"And you, my brother, First Prince Bertolius, have also left the world again!

This is the first time I've ever heard of it, and the whole thing is just so full of fathers and sons. Sometimes it's sick and dead.

Eirich looks at this one and closes his eyes gently.

I see. You mean a ruse from here?

"No matter, it's not a disease! The Duke Allens, the Chancellor who touched the King's defeat and drowned in ambition, laid down his hand! He tried so badly not to usurp his right to inherit the throne, to harm his nephew, his brother, and even more!

Soon around the Crown Prince, members of the crew make rings and listen to speeches.

Maybe I have a born charisma.

"But the rest escaped that hand with a brave knight. The demon hand of the despicable Chancellor was not fit to send the rest to the Underworld. This is inevitably the will of the gods and the Spirit to restore kingdom to its righteous path!

Further, the speech continues with fever.

"Even more! The Prime Minister, who does not hate the blasphemy of the dead, finds out that he has let the rest escape, sets up influential fighters to harm himself and deceive his brother's name, and tries to control the Kingsguard, and to cut the rest off as traitors. We need your help to fight this great evil that does not fear God!

Everyone seemed interested in the speech, but not as patriotic as the National Army for the mercenaries in question.

It is difficult to grasp the whole thing only with authenticity and outrage.

We need something critical to do that.

"Not only would it be a great honor if you had all the rest of the throne, and justice restored to Gordonia, but it would also give the title to the many hardware it deserves, and to the martial arts remarkable!

The wings of the dawn, where the key things were shown, were wrapped in great cheer and a cry in honour of the Second Crown Prince Eldio.

Long live the crown prince, to the capital of the Zawang, in the cry of, he enters the large tent for the conference with his hands up.

The only people here are me, the captain and the captain, and a couple of key figures in the HEAVY Squad and each division.

"... is there just something here to know?

It turns into a calm, pale tone that the Crown Prince changed from his earlier angrily and enthusiastically trembling voice.

"Ha! Everyone knows what it's all about."

"Right. I have already sent a messenger to the National Army to convey the same content as earlier. The late prime minister or brother will arrive sooner than to inform the rest of the rebellion, which he sent out at the same time as the news of the King's fall."

Indeed, if you try to be a commander of the National Army, you will hear from the Prime Minister that he harmed the First Crown Prince and set up a new ball, and then from the Prime Minister of Teng Himself, and possibly the First Crown Prince, jointly, that Prince Eldio rebelled.

I may not even believe in Eldio in general, but I can't move right away if I don't know which is the truth.

And while I'm checking the truth, this one will be done quickly.

I guess that's what was planned from the beginning.

"We're already ready to go. You can leave whenever you want."

"Mercenaries are banned from entering the King's Capital in groups."

"Good, it's an emergency. For the remainder of my life, I will allow you to march to the King's capital in order to eliminate traitors and restore order."

By order of Eldio, the wings of the dawn began their march to the king's capital, sounding the sound of iron and horseshoes.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Me and the Assault Squad marched at the head of the whole street, just down the road to the King's Capital, but were taken to the center by Eirihi, that is, where Eirihi and Eldio were.

Eldio is switching to a horse just because he wasn't willing to go to battle in that sparkling carriage.

"Is that Agil?

When you just respond to a sudden call for now.

"I hear about you. I hear you let the Iron Spear Cavalry of Arkland blow bubbles on one horse."

"It's just blocking the road, so I pushed it through."

Eldio laughed slightly.

"Come on, that's good. My country was made to lick bitter cups more than once."

The smile turns into a cold look I see.

"It was also my father's weak back that made me good for the small country when I was in Arkland. I wish I could have twisted my opponent to that extent... my brother is only interested in maintaining what is now Goldonia, a poor bird who envisions a divided courtyard as the sky of the world"

That was the end of the conversation. Silent enough, Eldio leaves silently in front of him, increasing his speed so that me and Eirich can protect both sides as well.

The walls of the king's capital were already looming in front of him.

"You guys! What the hell are you imitating! Don't you know mercenaries are forbidden from entering the King's capital!

A soldier guarding the gate screams, but the voice is trembling.

At any rate, the wings of the dawn are more than 1,000 men in all squads, and if it comes to battle, there won't be one.

Further afield, soldiers were seen assembling so that the gate could be closed immediately.

"Remainder allowed"

Eldio advances in and speaks to the soldiers, but most of them remain puzzled.

In many cases I have never seen a royal face in a soldier in general if I become a nation as good as Goldonia.

Not to mention the face of Eldio, who is not a king or heir to the throne, is not well known.

Eventually, the captain class figure, possibly noble, appeared and panicked to his knees.

"Holy shit, this is your highness! What the hell is going on!?

"All you have to do is hurt your brother and take the throne."

"But! We have a report that His Royal Highness is suddenly no longer there than the place of the king's defeat..."

Whose name is it?

"... in His Royal Highness Crown Prince Bertolius"

"My brother was already shot. That's nothing but a change of balls set up by the Chancellor! If you want to stop the rest of your legs, you won't see them as the prime minister's hands!

Captain and soldier face to face.

When it comes to accomplices and civilians, the great treason is the death of an entire clan, and when it comes to nobility and immediate family members, the house is destroyed, and there is a felony marked with dishonor in other houses connected with blood.

"I don't want to join those people. Just go through the rest of it. Encourage me to do my job as usual."

"Ha!"

The captain gives instructions to the soldiers and scatters them everywhere.

I guess you're telling the castle wall defense to ignore us.

Nevertheless, we march amongst soldiers who drop this one off like figurines admiring Eldio's charisma and clear ability is a big deal.

When he enters the city, he immediately screams and pulls into the house when he realizes that the first citizen to come out with something is not a regular army.

But what Eldio passes as he speaks seems confused with the fear and royal language that a mercenary regiment has appeared in the city.

"Your Highness, the citizens may be confused by us."

"Now we have to panic the people. That's fine. Which way to clean up the Chancellor and his brother, the royal family will have nothing left."

On the way, the third squad divides part of the way to the Prime Minister's private residence and the Crown Prince's private residence, and the first and two squads, including the assault squads, march straight to the Royal Palace.

"I spare one soldier now, but I have a private soldier with few brothers and prime ministers. It would be more inconvenient to be given a cross spear."

"Are there 500 Kingsguards in the Royal Palace, as assumed?

"That's right. Since the Royal Palace guards are made up of 200 Kingsguards and only those who serve from generation to generation, it is not easy to increase them."

"We split up half the third squad, so we thought we could fight each other about 1,000 times if we ambushed them and brought them into a riot."

"Mm-hmm. And we don't need to destroy the Kingsguard. We just need to take two necks... I said the Kingsguard will last from generation to generation, but it's just a bunch of stiff conservatives, something that could root for this opportunity."

"Either way, it would be very troublesome to have the Royal Palace as a castle. First we need to break through the gates and break into the interior quickly."

Both eyes concentrate on me.

I don't know what else to do, it's me and the assault squad for it.

"I'm going back to the squad. Signal me whenever you're ready."

"Agil, I remember your first name. Please."

In honor of Eldio, I went back to the squad and declared myself going into the royal palace.

"Are you serious?" "Are you going to do it with the Kingsguard..."

"What, Goldonia hasn't had a decent war in the last thirty years. I've never been afraid of knights but swordsmanship."

The young man who said Carl was the one who drank the crew on purpose... although he seems to be a few older than me.

"We have monsters that beat each other up with orcs and win. If you show them something, they'll pee and run into Mom's futon! Hey, Captain?"

I'll smash your head lightly wondering what a monster is about me.

"I was just a little confident in sword wrestling, too! I'll see how strong the Kingsguards who stayed high are in a real killing match!

Carl said he was from the poor in Goldonia, but the sword's arm was definitely expected there and assigned to the Assault Squad.

An assault squad of even more confident men in the arms, originally in a mercenary regiment that valued arms over authority, soon began to raise their voices to give them an arms test with the boy knight.

The voices also included Celia, who participated unconditionally in the squire frame, and Mac, who was duly credited with his powers.

A close guard was already waiting fully armed in the square in front of the royal palace, through the main street in downtown.

That number was roughly 300, all of the Kingsguard Knights they all rode.

"Probably the prime minister's inward wisdom. Perhaps he expected it when he heard the rest had left before his father's body."

Eldio groans bitterly that that grandfather is because his intuition is sharp in vain.

Whatever it is, now the complete ambush is gone.

After that, there's only one way to eat them and jump into the royal palace.

I call on the legitimacy that Eldio has led soldiers to the Kingsguard, but they don't break the fighting posture.

That would be true, if you try them, the Crown Prince, his immediate supervisor, gave you an order to go out, and you will soon know if the Crown Prince will change his face as he does every day.

"You can make ugly sense! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Chancellor have already given orders to capture His Highness Eldio for conspiracy. Evidence above all that you have brought a mercenary-inspired group, the earliest escape is inappropriate!

By the ultimatum of the Captain and the Bumpy Man, Eldio falls back and Eirich and I step forward.

The speech is over, it's time for battle next.

"Archers forward!

There are no archers in the Kingsguard.

In some respects, the need was weak because the Palace Guard and the Royal Guard were originally tasked, but above all because the bow was regarded as a lower weapon in the Kingsguard of most of the constituents of the nobility.

But when it comes to battle, such an oddity does not pass.

If you hit an arrow, people will die.

"Ugh!

More than a hundred arrows fall over the head of the Kingsguard simultaneously, a Kingsguard guarded by heavy armor and shields is not so easy to defeat, but still one unlucky soldier falls after another.

Did you have the numbness cut off by several simultaneous shots? The Kingsguard has stormed this archer to crush him.

This is where we come in.

"All units, assault! Break through the enemy and intrude straight into the royal palace. After that, cut off all those you suspect!

I don't know which way the Assault Squad faces, including mine, the Crown Prince and the Chancellor saw their faces.

Then I'm talking about cutting off all the suspicious stuff.

Eldio says it's easier to do without the hard-headed people who nest in the Royal Palace.

However, there are many women in the Royal Palace, such as female officers, samurai, etc., so I made it strict that I would not allow this to be cut.

Horse-riding assaults screaming at us are followed by horses that just fill the square with heavy and light cavalry.

It beats in number but inferior in uniform, with the exception of some soldiers, the arms of the sword would not be enemies either.

It is their place in the royal palace, if you go in, you will each move in and out in battle.

I hold the spear that it's going to be a long fight.

Follow Celia and Mac, cut to the head of all units and go in.

There's nothing wrong with that, there was no one next door or behind us when we met in Arkland.

We have allies in the back and allies next door, enemies only in front, a lot easier stuff.
