The King of Knights in a Different World

On Sanpenkou, they are saying their final goodbyes.

"Lucifer, this time, you really won't go back?"

Jeanne thought for a while, then continued to ask.

"Jeanne, forgive me this time, after all, your husband and I are a career man.

I will beat Rome as fast as I can, and come back to accompany you."

Lucifer smiled, and responded to Joan of Arc.

"Well... Actually, I know it too, but I really want to go together."

Joan of Arc hesitated for a while... before speaking.

She was actually not worried about Lucifer, but also about Lucifer's duty as king.

But it was because he wanted to stay with Lucifer, so he said subconsciously.

"Not this time.

It's not that Joan is lacking in your abilities, it's just that if you go with me.

What about Abigail and the others?"

Lucifer softly stated the reason.

After the previous events, Joan of Arc has grown.

Even if you join the battlefield, there is no problem.

But the problem is that Abigail and the others need Joan's arrangements to adapt to life in the royal city.

This, only she can do.

Even if it was Leah, she would not be able to give them a sense of security.

"I see."

In the end, Joan did not persevere.

"They leave it to you.

Well, especially Yu Ji, at the beginning, she may have a strong reaction to Al, so, I can only rely on you, Jeanne.

Otherwise, when I come back, the palace might be demolished by them."

"Well, leave it to me.

Be safe and come back early."

After listening to Lucifer's words, Joan of Arc instantly felt that she was also doing important things.

She wants to protect this home for Lucifer.

"Um!"

After finishing the last farewell, Lucifer rode on the horse and came to Tristan's team.

Taking a last look at the carriage where Joan of Arc was, Lucifer retracted his gaze and shouted loudly.

"Knights, march!"

"yes!"

Taking this as a boundary, most of the knights headed to the farther east under the leadership of Lucifer.

Until Lucifer's figure disappeared, Joan of Arc put down the curtains of the carriage, she sighed, with a disappointed expression.

"Since you're so lost, why not go with him.

Humans are troublesome."

After Yu Ji saw the expression of Joan of Arc, she was very puzzled.

In her opinion, love is... love, if you hate it, you like it and follow it, if you don't like it, you just explain it directly, what does it mean to sigh here while looking like you want to follow it.

"Sorry for letting you see my lost side..."

"There's nothing to apologize for! Why don't you leave with him? If you're worried about me, it's completely unnecessary.

I said I would stay here until I beat him, so I wouldn't break my promise."

Yu Ji promised Joan of Arc.

"No, no.

I believe in you, Yuji.

Just to better adapt to the new life in Wangcheng, Lucifer said that I was necessary, and I felt the same way.

So I think it would be better to stay than to go to him.

Besides, I don't know anything about war.

Leah should know better."

"Who is Leah?"

"Lucifer's immediate knight is also the head of the Knights of the Round Table, and finally his lover.

Leah is the commander of the Royal Guards, we will see you often in the future.

By the way, she has a very upright personality, so you don't have to worry."

Before long, the two teams finally lost sight of each other.

Under the protection of Joan of Arc Percival, he returned to the royal city. Afterwards, he had to organize the army, select troops, and decide whether to reinforce the East according to the situation.

If things don't go well, then Lucifer is only leading the vanguard.

If things go well, he won't need reinforcements.

Time passed quickly, along the way, Lucifer kept receiving battle reports about the frontline.

In fact, on the second day after I arrived in Salem, the eastern front had officially started fighting.

However, so far, except for... the initial raid was repelled by Rungomigniad, the subsequent battles have become thunderous and rainy.

The opponent's large legion did not attack with all their strength, but separated out a lot of small troops to continue guerrilla attacks around the fortress, attracting the soldiers on their side to go out, and annihilating them at the same time.

It is said that this is the strategy of Marco Anthony, the commander of the Tenth Army.

Currently there are three legion commanders on the opponent's front line, the tenth legion chief, the eleventh legion chief Lucius, and the seventh legion chief Arash.

But the real strength is not much..., only nearly 80,000, much less than those in the south.

Based on the opponent's legion configuration, plus the actions during this period of time, Lucifer had some speculations in his mind.

Interesting! Is this waiting for me to pass? Obviously, after they first... hit the steel plate, their actions became: cautious.

Now the opponent seems to have adjusted their strategy.

It's just that whether this strategic arrangement is as I speculated, we still need to look at the actual situation.

At noon, when the camp was resting, Lucifer stepped out of the tent and looked at the sky.

The clouds in the sky are changing.

"It's going to change."

Lucifer was mumbling at the moment.

This time Leah was not around, only Tristan was waiting by his side.

"Yes, king."

Tristan responded.

"It reminds me of our first battle, Sir Tristan."

Said, Lucifer sat down, he pushed away and gestured to Tristan.

Tristan nodded and sat down on the chair next to him.

"The king and I met on the day before a rainy day, when we were still confused about whether we could defeat the French invasion.

But the king already had the answer in his heart.

It is our luck to follow the king."

At this moment, Tristan spoke about their first meeting.

In fact, more than two years ago, although Lucifer integrated the army with great righteousness, most of the knights just instinctively wanted to attack foreign enemies.

They have no confidence in their ability to win.

Before that, they had never imagined that their victory would come so quickly and so thoroughly.

"It is also my luck to have subjects like you.

Having said that, according to the usual practice, after returning from Salem this time, they should have been given a vacation.

But there is no way now, so I can only make up for it later.”

In fact, after every battle or expedition, I would give those... knights who went to war a vacation, so that they could rest physically and mentally.

But this time, it can only be said that time waits for no one.

"The king didn't rest, how could I feel tired waiting.

Thank you king for your concern, but since we are knights, we have already realized something."

In this regard, Tristan did not feel any distress.

"In this case, let us recall two years ago again, and also experience the victory two years ago again."

"Follow your orders."

Speaking of this, they all laughed at the same time.

no.303 Situation comparison

The rain filled the sky, and the ground was filled with muddy water after footsteps.

In this rainy weather, Lucifer led the knights to the Victory Fortress.

This fortress named after Boudica is the gateway to the east of Britain, and it is also the most critical strategic location.

However, having said that, there is also part of the territory to the east of the fort that needs Britain.

However, it is in a plain area, and there is almost no danger to defend, so the main defensive location is still in the fortress.

Of course, the Roman side is similar, their Yellund Fortress is actually built according to the terrain.

Therefore, the boundary between the two countries is actually very vague, and in many cases, only a section of hillside can be used as the boundary.

In addition, here is a high-profile war zone, and there are almost no civilians to be seen.

Led by Buka, Lucifer came to the battle meeting room of the fortress, and there were already many generals waiting here.

After seeing Lucifer, they immediately saluted Lucifer under the leadership of Rungomigniad.

"No need to be polite."

Lucifer raised his hand to signal.

After speaking, he came to the side of the sand table that had been prepared, and carefully looked at the current battle comparison.

"How's the situation now?"

As he said that, Lucifer looked at the coach Rungomignard here, this was the first time they had officially worked together on the battlefield.

"I can't stand it.

The main force in front of the opponent has a total of three 3 regular legions staying near Joria, with a total strength of 80,000, and the other mixed legions have not appeared for the time being.

As for our side, what can be called the main force at present is only the more than 30,000 troops of the Northern Army that I brought along, and the 20,000 troops preserved by Marshal Boudica earlier.

The other 60,000 are recruits, and there are 10,000 reserve troops."

Rungomigniad pointed to the sand table and seriously stated the current strength comparison between the two sides.

On the surface, it seems that Britain still has the advantage.

But in many cases, the strength of troops in war cannot be measured by numbers at all.
