I Will Be The Crowned King

As a personal experience of this war, and the person who knew Ansen Bach best in the entire empire—or so he thought—Bernard Molwes was deeply aware that such a sensation might even be possible. The war that will determine the fate of the empire is probably coming to an end soon.

The reason is none other than Anson Bach, who acted too quickly!

In five days, we are approaching the border of Xiaolong Principality. The empire's powerful war machine has not even had time to start, and it will be forced to face this army of 150,000 people... This approach completely breaks the common sense of past wars, and it can be said that it directly hits the empire's largest army. The gate of life: efficiency.

Yes, the empire has the most extensive territory, the largest population, and the most powerful and largest armed forces in the entire world of order—theoretically—but it takes a lot of time to mobilize all this wealth, population, and armed forces.

Most wars do not require the mobilization of the entire empire, even the most difficult Clovis; of course, neither the emperor nor the archdukes will admit that half of the empire's power is spent just to maintain order in the empire.

Once the emperor who hastily organized an army is defeated at the Halberd River, it is really possible to completely determine the outcome of this war in just a few hours.

Of course, not everyone holds the same views as him, or rather... the vast majority.

For example, the Queen Mother of Clovis and the eldest princess of the empire, Anne Herred, in her eyes, the Battle of the Halcyon was normal for a month or even half a year without a winner, let alone a day or two - that was How could the battle between hundreds of thousands of troops, Clovis and the Empire, the two hegemons of the Order World, end so easily?

As a member of the Hered royal family, she would naturally seize this opportunity to win over new allies with unclear attitudes, suppress and intimidate important partners with suspicious behavior, and contribute to the final victory.

"...But mother, wouldn't it be too showy for you to do this?"

Seeing the Queen Mother enjoying herself at the banquet, the young King Nicholas, who was always highly vigilant, said worriedly: "We are guests after all, so much fanfare..."

"No, my child, we are not guests, but the owners here." Anne Herred said with a smile:

"I understand, you are the king of Clovis after all. If you have been with those savage and rude country people for a long time, you will inevitably forget how noble you are."

"But now you have returned to the empire, where civilians and nobles are two completely different worlds. Clovis's set of disrespectful rules will no longer be a shackles that bind you. The only thing you need to contact is Those nobles."

"Dear Nicholas, you have the most noble blood in the world of order. In this world that truly belongs to you, there is nothing you need to be afraid of or be wary of."

"Maybe you are right, mother, but the battle on the Halcyon is not over yet, so I still think it's better not to make too much of a fuss." Nicholas was still worried:

"His Majesty Joseph has no clear outcome. At this time, shouldn't we try our best to win over those nobles instead of..."

"No, no, no, my dear child, you still have not mastered the rules of the game in this world; precisely because the outcome has not yet been decided, we cannot act too weak, otherwise it will make those nobles think that the emperor really has lost. possible?"

Anne shook her head. At this moment, she changed her past embarrassment in Clovis and looked so calm, elegant and at ease: "Besides, this war will never end easily. We must take this opportunity to find out what the Dukes are carrying behind their backs." What ulterior secrets is the emperor planning?"

"Find their plot and thwart them... Dear Nicholas, we have plenty of time to teach you how to live like a noble."

Looking at his smiling mother, the little king couldn't help but shake his head. He really couldn't understand all this.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from the distant banquet scene... The guests who were enjoying the banquet just now suddenly stopped and gathered around someone, exclaiming and sighing in surprise from time to time.

"what happens?!"

Nicholas, who vaguely felt something was wrong, stood up abruptly, but before he could take a step forward, Anne Herid raised her hand to stop him.

"Wait, you can't go there now." The Queen Mother looked at her child seriously: "As a king, you must remain calm and calm at all times, and you must maintain your majesty at all times - no matter what happens, Let the people below come forward for you."

While speaking, Anne turned to look at the maid next to her. The latter understood the situation clearly, picked up the tray filled with wine glasses and walked towards the most crowded place at the banquet.

A moment later, the maid with braided hair came back with her head lowered. Two orange-red braids fell on her shoulders, reflecting her pale and bloodless face.

Seeing this scene, Anne Herred and Nicholas' hearts "thumped!" at the same time:

"What happened?"

……………………

"Mount bayonets—attack!"

On the noisy and chaotic battlefield, the unkempt cavalry colonel Charles Sanders had completely lost his former dignity. He covered his bleeding right arm and continued to lead the charge of the few hussars behind him: "Commander Schlieffen, please. Lead the command headquarters to retreat one kilometer immediately, the forward position is not where you should be."

"You fart!"

Faced with the attention of his subordinate colleagues, the old count also expressed his politeness very politely: "The battle situation is so critical now, it has almost reached the point of all-or-nothing. At this time, you want me to retreat?!"

"I'm not asking you to retreat, I'm telling you..."

"Shut up!"

After directly intercepting the latter's words, the old man with a ferocious expression gasped heavily. The huge physical exertion and the smoke floating around made his breathing comparable to the sound of a broken bellows.

The cavalrymen following the two men were also very different. They were almost all dishonored. The sabers in their hands had curled blades. The carbines on their saddles had long since disappeared. Many of them were holding revolvers, and even some were holding revolvers. Rifles snatched from the enemy are used in battle.

It’s messy, it’s too messy.

In a normal battle, the cavalry should retreat after opening a gap and gaining opportunities for the infantry, or turn their guns around and wander around the edge of the battlefield to look for opportunities to break in again - but this battle is far from "normal". Not related to anything!

The battlefield was too narrow, the cavalry who had little experience in frontal battles were pushed aside, and a once-in-a-lifetime fighter plane... As the top commanders of the front line, the two men were completely crazy. After successfully tearing apart the outer positions, they did not retreat, but He continued to lead the cavalry to attack in all directions, and cooperated with the infantry columns to rush left and right among the imperial troops landing ashore, and repeatedly harassed them.

Thanks to their efforts, the imperial army on the east coast was still unable to reorganize a decent offensive. As soon as the follow-up reinforcements landed, they first had to face the impact of their own defeated troops. Before they could figure out the situation, dozens of Hundreds of Clovis cavalrymen on horseback, covered in blood, rushed towards them with knives in hand.

This not only caused the imperial army's position to be in chaos and its organization to the verge of collapse, but the two legions of Signal Flag and Rising Sun were also plunged into huge chaos - junior officers could not find where the legion commander's headquarters was, and they did not even know the legion commander. Are you still alive?

If it weren't for Commander-in-Chief Anson Bach still sitting at the headquarters, constantly issuing orders one after another from the rear, mobilizing artillery positions to provide reinforcements as much as possible, the organization of the Western Front Army on the east coast would have collapsed.

Of course, compared with the rewards obtained, the effort is worth it: after paying a lot of sacrifices, the left and right wings of the imperial army have shown a clear trend of collapse, and the dawn of victory is close at hand.

But often the more it feels like victory is in sight, the more misfortune will happen...

"What did you say? The armies of Roland and the Levent family have arrived at the crossing of the Halberd River?!"

Count Schlieffen, who was ready to continue charging just a second ago, felt as if he had been poured cold water on him: "When did this happen?"

"Uh... it must have happened an hour and a half ago." Charles Sanders sighed and tried his best to wipe the blood on his face: "The two legions have arrived at the ferry, and the storm legions upstream and downstream are crossing the river. An alert is coming, asking if you want to be ready for a fight.”

"This..." Count Schlieffen was stunned, and then became furious: "Why are you telling me such important information now?!"

"Because the herald has just found your headquarters—or where you are!"

The cavalry colonel couldn't help but growl: "Your Excellency, Legion Commander, everyone has a mission on the battlefield. I understand your original intention of personally leading the charge and setting an example for the soldiers, but such a risky behavior is detrimental to the war situation." Very disadvantageous.”

"We are officers, not soldiers. We cannot act as we please. You should also understand that at your age, if something happens to you! Then..."

"What did the Lord Consul say?"

Seeing that Charles Sanders was talking more and more, the old man changed the topic directly: "Should we give up crossing the river and the two legions should stay in place to prepare for the retreating Storm Legion, or..."

"I don't know. The headquarters has not sent anyone to inform us yet... Without notification, we will continue to execute the current order." The cavalry colonel sighed again:

"This is also the main reason why I did not organize you... If my judgment is not wrong, this may be because the two legions did not continue to move forward after arriving at the ferry..."

………………

"Why, why do they remain indifferent even though their army has arrived on the battlefield?!"

The furious Joseph III stared at the chaotic battlefield, clutching the sword at his waist in his right hand: "Send people! Send people to the two archduke's armies immediately. In the name of the emperor, I want them to immediately cooperate with the army to attack the ferry. Clovis thugs!"

"As you command!"

The equally angry knights immediately got on their horses and picked up the golden fleur-de-lis battle flag - they could not wait to rush to the big shots and ask them why they did not remain loyal to the emperor and fulfill their due obligations to the empire.

Looking at the retreating figures of the knights, the emperor, who was still furious, sat down calmly, as if what he had just done was just a performance.

Of course Joseph III understood that the grand dukes were waiting and watching when they were late before, and they were still waiting and watching now.

Are Roland and the Levent family the only ones to watch?

No...of course not. The nobles of Xiaolong City...or the entire empire are waiting to see the outcome of the battle of the Halberd River at this moment.

As for Roland and Archduke Levent...the only difference between them is that they are also the ones being watched.

They... want to steal the crown from their hands... to become the next emperor!

At this point, Joseph III finally understood... From beginning to end, this sudden "Clovis invasion" without warning was a rebellion against him. They... the loyal princes of the empire, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Prepare to use the Clovis people on the opposite side to oust yourself and the Herred royal family from the throne.

"But... do you think you can really succeed?" The emperor with a distorted expression showed a ferocious smile:

"Do you really think...without the support of traitors like you, I would lose to a bunch of Clovis thugs?"

…………

"My Lord Commander-in-Chief, you can't really make those two imperial armies indifferent by doing nothing, can you?!"

At the headquarters of the Clovis army on the east coast, Carl Bain was almost going crazy: "This is already the fifth piece of information sent back by the Storm Legion. The leading troops on the opposite side are almost in sight. We still have nothing to do. Do."

"That's right, don't do anything!" Anson's tone was extremely firm: "Whether it's Roland or the Levent family's army, tell the Storm Legion to treat them as if they don't exist, and do their best to deal with the emperor's army in front of them, and let the downstream people also grab it as soon as possible. When we cross the Halcyon River, we must at least completely suppress the defenders' arrogance and not give them any chance to breathe!"

"But that's 60,000...I really don't understand where your confidence comes from." Karl scratched his head hard. His hair, which had not been washed for several days, was almost no different from a chicken coop:

"Leon Francois's Hantu Army will not arrive in three hours at the fastest. If Roland or Archduke Levent launches an attack on us, the Storm Army alone will definitely..."

"Believe me, they will never attack." Anson emphasized again: "Unless the victory begins to be determined on the main battlefield of the Halberd River, they will never launch an attack."

"In addition... I have given an order to the Storm Legion upstream and downstream. If Roland and Levent's army makes any unusual movements, or approaches our army's position, do not hesitate and fire warning shots immediately!"
