Things from Another World - Chapter 1088
[1088. Chapter 1086: Her Highness the Princess Attacks]
The war has never been closer to the city than now.
In previous years, Grace’s plundering was limited to surrounding villages and towns, but this year, they actually attacked the royal capital directly.
For a moment, the despair of annihilating the country hung over Sila. The atmosphere in the crowded streets filled with refugees was very depressing. Everyone had a gloomy face, like a powder keg ready to explode.
The streets are already crowded with refugees. Most of these refugees are women and children. Young and middle-aged people have been forcibly recruited at this moment and are ready to fight at the city walls and outer city areas.
A devout mother knelt on the ground and prayed to God: “…my father died in the war last year. This year my husband went to the battlefield again. What about next year? Will even my children have to sacrifice on the battlefield? Go up? Merciful and great Father God, why don’t you send down your messenger to save us?”
Others nearby heard the mother’s prayers, glanced at her indifferently, then lowered their heads and crouched in the corner to continue waiting. With the coming of despair.
“We can’t win… We can’t win…”
“Shut up! You idiot! Do you want to die!?”
“I don’t want to die, but we can’t win…”
A desperate woman cried. Said: “The Kingdom of Grace is so powerful, how can we win?”
A girl passing by heard this and said indignantly: “Why is it impossible! I heard from the palace guard that His Majesty has sent a messenger to ask for help, and soon Illu The Illus Empire will come to support us!”
“Give up, how could the Illus Empire come to support us…”
“Yes! It will definitely happen! If it is His Majesty!”
The one named Beatrice The girl’s eyes were filled with the light of hope. His Majesty Tang En of the Illus Empire is such a kind and powerful king. He will definitely come!
“Everyone must hold on! His Majesty Tang En will definitely come to save us!”
“It’s impossible… This place is too far away from Alinks…”
“Yes… What’s more, we are just a small town. The principality, and strictly speaking, our country is still a traitor to the Illrus Empire. How could His Majesty Tang En come to save us…” “I’m
afraid he wants us all to die.”
“Stop talking nonsense!”
Bi Tris was anxious: “His Majesty Tang En is very kind! After he was crowned, he has always cared for the people, never increased the tax burden, and continued to implement some policies that are beneficial to the common people. This shows that he must be a very powerful person. A visionary and ambitious emperor! And now we in the Principality of Silla have always wanted to return to the Illus Empire. If it is him, if it is him… he will definitely… he will definitely come…”
Beatrice said As she looked, tears came out uncontrollably. She wiped her tears, bit her lip and said, “…at least, I won’t give up!”
She pulled out the slender sword on her waist and rushed out.
“Where are you going!?”
“I want to fight too! Even if I die, I don’t want to stay here and wait to die! Even if I die, I still want to kill a hateful Grisian – ah!”
The girl After running only two steps, he suddenly bumped into someone and fell to the ground.
Beatrice subconsciously said: “–Yeah, right… Humph!”
When Beatrice raised her head and found a young man, her expression suddenly became very bad, she snorted coldly, and stopped apologizing. He got up, patted his butt, and planned to continue running towards the city wall.
The man suddenly held down Beatrice’s head and asked in a low voice: “Little girl, with your little strength, you still have to fight?” “
So what?”
Beatrice bit her lower lip, her eyes full of tears. Angry: “Everyone has gone to the battlefield to protect this country, but only you, only you businessmen who are only interested in profit, can not go to the battlefield! Why? Why should I – we use our lives to protect you? Man!?”
Beatrice saw that the man blocking her had fair skin, no smell of fireworks on his body, and Wenwen didn’t look like a mercenary or warrior. He was clearly a businessman, and she immediately became furious.
A mercenary businessman?
The man was stunned and couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Well, from a certain point of view, he is indeed a businessman, but the word “profit-seeking” does not go with him…
“Get out of the way!”
Beatrice He screamed: “If you don’t go to the battlefield yourself, don’t block my way!”
The man sighed, snatched the slender sword from the girl’s hand, and pushed her back: “At least, I’m not desperate yet. When you girls go to the battlefield…”
“Damn it! You damn guy! Give me the sword back!”
The man glanced at the slender sword in his hand and shook his head: “This sword is used for The decoration is okay. It is clearly a ceremonial sword. Do you plan to use this kind of sword to kill enemies? And having said that… someone who is worthy of such a sword… shouldn’t be here, right?”
Beatrice’s face turned slightly. He changed, holding his neck and took back his long sword: “You care so much about me!? I have to fight too! I have to protect our home!” “
The battlefield is not a place for little girls like you to play house… “
The man shook his head. Just as he was about to persuade him to leave, he saw several maids running from a distance. After they saw Beatrice, they ran over in surprise: “Mr…. Beatrice, why are you doing this at this time? He ran out! Come back with us! It’s too dangerous outside!”
“Why go back? It’s dangerous outside, but not dangerous inside!? When did this happen!”
Beatrice simply no longer concealed it, and casually pulled off the hairband that fixed her hair. Her blond hair was spread behind her back. She pulled off the linen robe, revealing a leather armor uniform underneath, and the royal emblem of Sira on the chest. Shining brightly, she raised her sword high and shouted loudly: “I am Beatrice Cecil, the princess of the Principality of Silla! Now I swear here that I will never betray my people. I will live and die with Silla.” ! Even if every drop of blood of our Cecil family is exhausted, we will fight to protect this country! If there is no hope, we will create hope! If there is no chance of victory, we will create opportunities!” “
Ilrus Empire The reinforcements are coming! The longer we can delay, the greater our hope of survival!”
“Everyone, take action! Don’t sit here and wait to die!”
“Your husbands and children are fighting hard on the front line! Do we really just have to wait here to die!?”
“If we don’t have weapons, we will make them ourselves!”
“Even if we don’t go to the battlefield, we can still play our role!”
“Who said women can only be obedient in war? Waiting to die! We must use our own power to let those despicable Gris people know that they have angered us!”
Beatrice tried her best to incite the emotions of the refugees. The refugees, who were originally very negative, unexpectedly Unconsciously, he was infected by her, and the light of hope glowed again in his desperate eyes.
“It’s Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice!”
“Even Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice is going to fight, what qualifications do we have to wait here to die…” “
Yes! We may not be able to lift weapons to fight, but we are at the rear We can also use it for our own purposes!”
“Stand up! Everyone stand up! If you want to survive, let’s work together!”
“Those demons come to bully us every year, are we just going to endure it like this?”
See Everyone finally had the fighting spirit. Beatrice immediately became excited and shouted loudly: “That’s right! That’s it! Maybe we can’t defeat them, but at least we can bite them hard before we die. This is also our resistance. Will!”
“Now, please gather together quickly, notify the neighbors, count the number of people, and the number of empty rooms!” “
In order to prevent bow and arrow shooting, immediately move the elderly and children into the room. Don’t waste the house in the cellar! Make sure there is no one on the street as much as possible!” “
In order to prevent the rocket from igniting the house, please inform us now to get water to wet the roof of the house immediately!” “
Those who can knit are now starting to knit dummies. , we put the dummy on the city wall. Even if we can’t kill the enemy, we can increase our momentum. Maybe we can also get some arrows to use!” “Let’s
take action! Everyone take action!”
Under Beatrice’s command , those refugees who were numbly waiting for death actually started to take action. Maybe they were very hungry at the moment, maybe they were very tired, but for the lives of themselves and their children, and for the future of this country, these refugees still insisted on standing. Got up and started to get busy.
At the beginning, their cooperation was still very unfamiliar, but as they began to have a clear division of labor, their cooperation immediately became very smooth.
The man stood nearby and witnessed all this. He looked at the girl who seemed to be only sixteen or seventeen years old in great surprise.
Talent!
Although this is a special period, it is remarkable that she can organize people to resist under such adversity, not to mention that she is just a pampered princess living in a castle.
“And you!”
After Beatrice finished giving her instructions, she glared at him, pointed at him and cursed angrily: “You are a man with hands and feet, if you don’t want to die in this city, just take up arms. Fight on the front line!”
After hearing this, the man turned around and walked towards the castle.
When Beatrice saw this, she stamped her foot in annoyance: “What a useless coward!” After turning around, the man had a faint smile on his face.
This is Sila…
I didn’t expect that surprises can be found in this city-state.
At least this trip was not in vain, it was worth it.
Yes, of course this man is Tang En.
After Alleria received the letter asking for help, she began to make arrangements for support, and Tang En also quickly finished the matters at hand, and then rushed to Silla first.
He didn’t expect that he would meet such a talented person when he first arrived here. What about a princess who has a delicate body and is easy to push down?
This made Tang En feel a little bit dumbfounded. None of the princesses he met seemed to be serious.
