The military strength Pendragon has assembled so far is similar to what they expected.
2,000 garrison soldiers from other surrounding cities, plus the last 1,000 soldiers of the Royal Guards currently remaining in the Baiyang Palace, and the 200 members of the Delan Undead Team.
These 3,000 soldiers have been equipped with the most sophisticated equipment stored in the central treasury.
The originally bustling center of Pendragon has been transformed into a military defense zone full of murderous atmosphere.
This military defense zone is supported by three important buildings.
These three important buildings are Baiyang Palace, Central Coach Station Bell Tower, and Central Treasury Building.
These 3 buildings are the tallest and strongest 3 buildings in Pendragon.
These three vital buildings can be said to influence the entire defense line.
The loss of any one of these buildings will lead to the collapse of the entire defense line.
Therefore, these three buildings must not be lost.
Therefore, the 3,000 soldiers currently assembled in Pendragon and the 200 members of the Delan Undead Team were divided into three equal parts, led by Alyssa, Enli, and Jacob.
Alyssa, Enli, and Jacob also led their assigned troops and were responsible for guarding these three buildings.
Alyssa is responsible for guarding Baiyang Palace.
Enley is responsible for guarding the clock tower of the Central Coach Station.
Jacob guarded the central treasury building.
The three people perform their respective duties and guard different buildings and areas.
It was almost dusk when Allen's rebels arrived at Pendragon City. It was too late to launch an attack. Therefore, Allen did not immediately launch an attack on Pendragon when they arrived at Pendragon City. Instead, they spread out their troops unhurriedly and surrounded Pendragon, leaving only a gap for the defenders in Pendragon City to flee.
Alan is waiting.
He was waiting for tomorrow. When the sun rose tomorrow, he could launch an attack on the capital of the Britannia Empire.
And Ilsa and the others are also waiting.
They are also waiting for tomorrow. When the sun rises tomorrow, they will be able to attack Allen's rebels head-on on the carefully prepared battlefield.
Tick tock, tick tock...
Just then, raindrops fell.
The originally clear night sky suddenly became filled with dark clouds.
It's summer now, and summer is already a rainy season.
It was a sunny day just now and turned into rainy day in the blink of an eye - this kind of thing happens everywhere in summer.
The raindrops that were originally pouring gradually became denser, and the original drizzle turned into light rain.
According to the trend of the rain, it seems that the rain is getting heavier and heavier.
"Your Majesty." Jacob turned away and said to Ilsa aside, "It's raining. Let's avoid it first."
Ilsa, who seemed to be tired of seeing the lights of the rebels outside the city, did not refuse Jacob's proposal. After nodding, she said softly:
"Well, let's go."
Speaking of this, Ilsa paused.
Then added:
"Everyone, please go to bed early tonight. Tomorrow should be very hard."
After saying that, Ilsa turned around first and walked towards the city wall.
The rest of the people followed closely behind Ilsa and left Pendragon's east wall...
…
…
at the same time--
Britannia Empire, somewhere within the country.
It's just started drizzling on Pendragon's side, but it's already raining heavily here.
A heavy downpour fell from the dark sky. Both the density and the force of the rain made people marvel.
A dozen people from the envoy group hid under the shade of the trees to avoid the downpour.
This envoy group of more than ten people was sent to the Duke of Connaught to negotiate with the Duke of Connaught.
This envoy group is relatively small, with only a dozen people, consisting of one envoy and 13 guards.
The sudden heavy rain forced the group of 14 people to take shelter under the shade of a tree.
Because of the heavy rain, we couldn't even light a fire under the shade of the trees.
According to the exaggerated rain intensity, we should not be able to leave tonight and have to wait until tomorrow.
Therefore, the guards took off their armor and rested against the big trees.
Or chatting casually and relaxing, or tilting your head and falling asleep directly.
The envoy sent by the central government to negotiate with the Duke of Connaught was an official from the Foreign Affairs Office under Bancro.
After working in the General Administration of Foreign Affairs for more than 20 years, he is now a middle-aged man with half-grey hair. He is Bancro's capable general and has considerable diplomatic experience and record.
Negotiating with the Duke of Connaught - this is not a simple task, and it is not a task that can be easily fooled.
Whether the Duke of Connaught is willing to send troops to rescue Pendragon - this directly affects Pendragon's survival or death.
After all, the Duke of Connaught has a 2,000-man troop that is quite top-notch in terms of equipment and training levels.
With the help of these 2,000 people, Pendragon can survive for a long time.
Therefore, the Duke of Connaught must be asked for reinforcements no matter what.
Therefore, the envoy was under unprecedented pressure at this time...
He had never performed such a stressful mission...
The carefree guards were chatting and sleeping at this time, while the envoy was alone leaning against a big tree.
Thinking about how he should negotiate with the Duke of Connaught.
It is not an easy task to persuade the Duke of Connaught to agree to send troops to rescue Pendragon.
Although the Duke of Connaught is a vassal of the Britannia Empire and has the obligation to send troops to assist the central government when the central government needs it.
But——there is no guarantee that the current Duke of Connaught will remain loyal after facing the current tragic situation of the empire.
The Britannia Empire is currently facing the crisis of national extinction. Hundreds of thousands of troops are entrenched in the eastern Rhineland Plain, and more than 100,000 rebels led by Allen are approaching the city of Pendragon.
Su Cheng's Knights of Michael have become the last hope of the Britannia Empire.
The Britannia Empire was now in the greatest danger since its founding, on the verge of extinction.
The current Duke of Connaught, Ron MacRudiel, felt that there was no future for him to follow the Britannia Empire, and decided that it was not impossible for him to betray his country and turn to the Frankish Empire like Allen.
In the history of the continent, there have been many such incidents where the central government was about to collapse and the vassals in the country turned to the enemy.
In addition, the relationship between the central government of the Britannia Empire and the vassals was also very ordinary.
The Britannia Empire was a highly centralized country, and the vassals were very weak.
The successive emperors of the Britannia Empire did not like these vassals very much, and always oppressed and exploited them in various ways.
At the round table meeting five years ago, the central government once again increased the "tribute rate" of the vassals, increasing the tribute that the vassals had to pay to the central government of the Britannia Empire every year.
At present, this situation is very easy to make people rebellious, and the relationship between the central government and the vassal is originally very ordinary... Therefore, the envoy is most worried about whether the Duke of Connaught will betray the country and collaborate with the enemy...
