Tassa has maintained contact with His Royal Highness once a day in recent days.
Although he had seen many incredible things during his year as His Highness's personal guard, the new order still made him feel incredible and... confused.
The incident of the attack on the Royal Palace was exaggerated as Roland Wimbledon's punishment for Tifeco Wimbledon?
When the militia attacking the Western Frontier was defeated and returned to the capital, he had heard of the warnings carried by this group. Tassa thought it was just his bluff, or a strategy to attack the west while Tifeko focused his attention on alert and defense, he sent troops to attack other cities, just as Kassia did, robbed his opponent before winter came.
However, the subsequent orders from Bianping Town made him feel something was wrong. His Highness seemed to be really planning to attack the capital and asked him to prepare for publicity.
The latest order clearly informs that the attack will be launched on the first day of mid-autumn, which is exactly the same as the time of notification in the warning.
Look at this sentence, exaggerating the incident of the attack on the royal capital palace as a punishment, that is, His Highness will directly attack the inner city of the royal capital, but how is this possible?
The royal capital has the strongest city walls of the gray castle, which can accommodate two houses side by side with thickness, and even His Highness's artillery is difficult to destroy.
With the Royal Capital Knights, the Protective Guards, and the recruited militias, it is difficult for an army of more than 10,000 people to attack the city.
It is also a daytime talk to launch a raid with a witch. There are many divine punishment stones in the palace, and giant divine punishment stones are set up in the main hall, bedroom and other parts. The witch will be taken away by one step into the room.
This is also the reason why Tifeko hunted and killed witches but no one took revenge. It was impossible to assassinate a royal noble in the palace.
Moreover, this method has a hidden danger. If Tifeko Wimbledon really dies at the hands of a witch, the church will probably benefit the most... With a little guidance, the four princes can be confirmed to unite with the devil's minions to seize the throne, and the nobles will also unite to resist his power.
But with His Highness Roland's intelligence, Tassa believed that he would definitely see this.
So how can Your Highness attack the inner city?
Sir, what instructions do you have to ask me for?Pushing open the half-closed door, Hilforks walked into the living room.
Waiting for a new order, Tassa spread his hands and said, "You sit first."
……yes.
Seeing the former member of the acrobatic troupe with a surprised expression, he could only smile helplessly. Usually he received the exact order and notified these people, but this time he was not convenient to inform the tasks assigned by His Highness in advance. If the palace of the Royal Capital was not attacked, such seemingly absurd instructions would easily reduce the other party's trust.
But on the contrary, if Your Highness really does this, it will inevitably be an unprecedented shock for them, and it will greatly enhance the confidence of this group of people, especially if you witness your Highness being thousands of miles away, you can pose a real threat to Tifeko's throne. Such propaganda effect is more effective than his exhausting words.
So Tassa chose a compromise method, calling Hill to the inner city first, waiting for His Highness to fulfill his warning.
If it succeeds, everyone will naturally be happy. If it fails, he just needs to lie that the messenger may have been delayed on the road.
Have some tea, Tassa smiled, don't put doubts on your face all the time. As an intelligence officer, the most important thing is
Hide yourself, sir.He took the teacup, by the way, there have been many patrol teams on the streets recently, and even the garrison guards on the city wall have doubled.Could it be... these transfers are related to Your Highness's order?
That's true, Tifeco
Just as Tassa was halfway through his words, a dry thunder suddenly rolled over the mansion, and the loudness made the window glass tremble.
At the same time, the ground swayed slightly, and the vibration was brief and clear.
Hill was caught off guard and the teacup in his hand fell straight to the ground and fell into several pieces.
Sorry, sir... But Hill said dumbfounded, what's going on?
Come with me, Tassa said with a serious expression.
The two of them ran out of the garden residence and were immediately attracted by a black smoke pillar in the direction of the palace. Obviously, the thunder sound just now came from there.
He had seen His Highness's artillery and muskets, and naturally he knew that only alchemy powder could produce a roar like heaven. Moreover, such a violent tremor was not like a shelling, but more like the explosive pack originally used to deal with the thick armored evil beast.
Hill opened his mouth wide and could hardly believe his eyes. Is His Highness’s declaration in the warning true?
That's right, Tassa finally felt relieved. He turned around and pretended to be profound. This is also the new order His Highness wants to give you.
*******************
Tifeko looked at the falling chandelier in front of him, unable to speak for a long time.
Your Majesty, cough cough... Your Majesty, are you okay?The imperial prime minister coughed in the dust flying all over the sky, saying, "Hell, what's going on outside?"
Tifeco didn't answer, but felt that his throat was dry.
A silver armored knight was pressing under the chandelier. He was reporting to himself about the recruitment of refugees, but now his neck was broken by the falling chandelier.
If I take another step forward, I'm afraid I'll...
When he thought of this, he felt his hair stand up.
Is this an earthquake?The Finance Minister was still in shock and said, "We have to leave the castle quickly and go to the empty place."
That’s right, your majesty, it’s not safe here!
Shut up all of them!Tifeco shouted loudly, and until he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was hoarse, as if he was being pinched in his throat. Sir Weimas, take me to the basement immediately!
Yes, Your Majesty.Although the Knight of the Gangxin seemed a little nervous, he was already very calm compared to the performance of the other important officials. He came over and helped Tifeike up and walked downstairs.
Along the way, the new king saw the aisle full of broken glass, and through the broken windows, the sky palace on the side of the castle no longer existed.
Amid the rising smoke and dust, this magnificent building now has only a few lonely stone pillars.
This is by no means caused by an earthquake, but the effect only if a large amount of snow powder explodes!
Leaving the castle now is undoubtedly a suicide. God knows whether Roland Wimbledon has buried snow powder in other places. Only the basement made of thick stone walls is safe enough.
Damn it, Tifeko thought hatefully, why did the fourth brother have this kind of alchemy weapon?
Could it be that when Jiasia left Bishui Port, he also gave him the recipe and asked him to use snow powder to fight with him to lose both sides!
But even so, how did he bury the snow powder in the palace?Even a witch with extraordinary abilities can't do this!
Take the Knights and thoroughly search the entire palace area, especially the sewers, gardens and warehouses, where snow powder is easily hiding!As soon as he stepped into the basement, Tifeko immediately ordered the Knight of Gangxin, and found suspicious figures, whether they were nobles or not, they would be arrested first. All attendants and servants entering and leaving the palace must be searched thoroughly, and no one should be let go!
Obey your order, Your Majesty.
After Sir Weimas left, the new king realized that he had been wet with cold sweat.
Roland actually did this!
No matter how he did it, this time he could hide the snow powder in the palace, would it be easier to put it in the castle next time?
You are far from as safe as you think, and everyone will see that your throne is shaking.
Thinking of this warning, Tifeco couldn't help but shivered.
As the anger faded, he felt fear rising from the bottom of his feet, holding his heart bit by bit.
Although he had seen many incredible things during his year as His Highness's personal guard, the new order still made him feel incredible and... confused.
