(Today's Second Update ~)
The 156th chapter "each has their own thoughts" (part two)
At this moment, the Crown Prince's face is gloomy. Watching Jean Claude lead his men to charge forward, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shrines of the Holy Order? Humph … …
Gritting his teeth, the Crown Prince curses these frauds in his heart. His 1000 elite cavalry is already ready, but he still hasn't given the order to charge. Watching the fierce battle between Jean Claude and the Holy Order, the Crown Prince has another plan in mind … …
What is the biggest bargaining chip for a coup? It's the power in his hands! The 1000 cavalry in his hands is something he spent many years quietly building up. These 1000 cavalry are his true subordinates!
As for Earl Raymond and General Jean Claude, although they are on his side … … but, people's hearts are hard to predict! If he doesn't have these 1000 cavalry by his side, then wouldn't he be a general without an army? After the coup is successful, Jean Claude and Raymond will both be generals in the military. There will be thousands of troops in the capital. What if they decide to rebel?
Humph, in history, there are many examples of generals who have the upper hand in military power and started a coup! These 1000 cavalry are meant to intimidate Jean Claude and Earl Raymond after the coup is over! They must not be lost!
Fight! Fight! Knight of the Holy Order, fight with Jean Claude's men! It's best if both sides suffer heavy losses!
"Your Highness … … General Jean Claude's men seem to be unable to hold on." A knight sitting on a horse beside him looked at the battle in the distance and suddenly whispered, "Do you want us to go up …"
"Wait a little longer!" The Crown Prince sneers: "Rest assured, General Jean Claude is an experienced general, he can still hold on for a little longer."
Seeing the Crown Prince's cold smile, the people next to him can't help but shudder and shut their mouths.
Earl Raymond has already pulled Alpha onto his horse. Riding on the same warhorse, the two turned around and galloped towards the Crown Prince's formation. Behind them are less than 50 Rollin's elite guards. Seeing the Crown Prince still sitting on his horse and watching Jean Claude and the Knight fight to the death, Earl Raymond almost vomits blood in anger.
With his experience in politics, how could he not know what the First Prince was planning? When he saw the look in the First Prince's eyes, he knew what His Highness was thinking … Preserving his strength? Damn it! Even if you want to preserve your strength, you have to become the emperor first! If you really let the Holy Order enter the square, you won't even be able to sit as the Emperor anymore. What's the point of keeping a thousand cavalrymen? Fleeing for his life?
When Earl Raymond returned to the Crown Prince's side, his face was naturally unsightly. The Crown Prince also knew that he had gone too far, but he didn't want to let his military ally be too cold-hearted, so he casually comforted him: "Earl Raymond, you have worked hard … Just now, your men pledged their lives to kill the enemy for me. After I ascend the throne, I will bestow upon all the fallen warriors a prominent title!"
Earl Raymond really wanted to snort loudly, but when the words reached his throat, he forcibly held them back. In his heart, he secretly thought: What's the use of a title when he's already dead? He whispered: "Your Highness, General Jean Claude won't be able to hold on for long …"
"Don't worry, Raymond." The Crown Prince slowly said: "The Light Shrines are in the capital, how many people can they have? The capital's Shrines are only allowed to keep five hundred people to guard the Knight. At most, they will only have five hundred people, so they won't be able to set off much of a storm. You see, General Jean Claude is already suppressing the situation … "
With that, he raised his hand and pointed.
Sure enough, the valiant general Jean Claude is indeed worthy of being called a valiant general of the military. To be entrusted with the heavy responsibility of the defense of the capital, he naturally has the ability to lead troops into battle. Although his personal guards are not as good as the Holy Knights in terms of individual combat strength, they are still veterans. Coupled with Jean Claude's keen observation of the battlefield, during the melee, his personal guards would wave their banners and issue orders from time to time. Quickly, the city guards behind the palace walls were able to stop the advance of the Holy Knights.
The two groups of people were fighting at the corner of the square. The Holy Order wanted to rush into the square, while Jean Claude was defending the corner of the square. Seeing the heavy casualties of the city guards, the Paladin also suffered heavy losses. Now, only half of them are left.
In this battle, at least two thousand corpses were left on the square.
Marquis Solomon was the angriest person. At this moment, he hated the Shrines to the core. The direction where the Holy Order rushed in was where his Solomon family's archers were located. The first wave of attack was his Solomon family's private soldiers, so his losses were the heaviest. Originally, the private soldiers that were secretly transported into the capital by the merchant fleet were now less than half.

"It seems this brother of mine is still too stingy … …" Prince Son stood on top of the city wall and looked down at the distant battlefield. Seeing the Crown Prince's thousand cavalry not moving, he immediately guessed his brother's intention and sighed: "Doesn't he know … … His personality will get him killed … … Humph, if he wasn't hiding his strength and guessing the intentions of General Jean Claude and Earl Raymond, then the Holy Order wouldn't have made it here … … Humph … …" Speaking up to here, Prince Son turned to look at Du Wei and smiled: "Du Wei, do you know? This brother of mine has always felt that he's inferior to me in every aspect, so he especially hates me. But there's one thing he's very proud of, and that is that he thinks he's better than me in war … … Humph, wasn't it just 20 years ago when I went to the northwest as a representative of Father … … Does he really think he's better than me? Ridiculous … … With his personality, it will get him killed sooner or later. "
At this moment, Du Wei's heart was already a little cold. This Prince Son has one trick up his sleeve after another. During this coup d 'état, he's always been calm and composed. Aside from the appearance of the fake Gandorf, he seems to have full control of the situation … … The Shrines and the Magician's Guild were all dragged down by him … … How did this guy do it?
And looking at his eyes right now … … It seems? He still has another trick up his sleeve??
Du Wei calculated in his mind. Looking at the stalemate below, he suddenly felt a trace of palpitation in his heart!
No!
This can't be!
Du Wei's original intention was to see the Crown Prince succeed in his coup. Although he has a good impression of Prince Son, at most, he would take advantage of the chaos to save the Crown Prince's life and take him away. That way, he would be able to repay the Crown Prince. But now … … If the Crown Prince fails, then the Rowling family is finished … … Mother, brother, all of them … …
The Crown Prince can't lose!
Looking at Prince Son so close to him, Du Wei suddenly came up with a shocking idea!
Prince Son is standing less than two steps away from me. And because of his trust in me, the Crown Prince ordered me to stand beside him … … This prince doesn't know any martial arts, only magic. At such a close distance, if I pull out my dagger and slit the Crown Prince's throat … … Then the whole situation will be … … The Crown Prince will succeed and the family will be saved … …
Once this idea was born, Du Wei couldn't suppress it no matter how hard he tried. Lowering his head, Du Wei's eyes couldn't help but quietly wander around Prince Son's exposed throat … …
"Du Wei." Prince Son suddenly turned his head to look at Du Wei and frowned: "Your complexion doesn't look so good … … Could it be your magic hasn't recovered yet?"
With a trace of warmth in his voice, Prince Son suddenly turned around with his back facing Du Wei as if pulling out something from his chest. This action completely exposed his back to Du Wei. From Du Wei's point of view, the nearest guard is at least five steps away. As long as he pulls out his dagger … …
Du Wei's heart was beating so fast that it felt like all the blood in his body was rushing to his head. For a moment, his mouth was dry and his tongue was dry. Secretly, one of his hands was already holding onto the mithril dagger gifted to him by the Lister Family!
"Ah, found it!" Just when Du Wei was hesitating, Prince Son turned around with a smile on his face and a small bottle in his hand. With a trace of warmth in his eyes, Prince Son reached out and handed the bottle to Du Wei: "Take it, drink it quickly!"
This bottle was actually polished out of top quality crystal. Small and exquisite, one can tell at a glance that it's not an ordinary item. Needless to say, the thing inside must be incomparably precious.
"Drink it." Prince Son faintly smiled and said: "This is a good thing. It's called the 'Mana Pool' potion. Its effect of replenishing magic is more than ten times better than ordinary potions! Don't look at how powerful your magic is compared to a magus. Even if this bottle can't completely replenish your magic, it's almost enough. This thing is very precious. There are only five or six bottles left in the palace and the recipe is already gone. Drinking one bottle means one less bottle! "
With that, the bottle was already stuffed into Du Wei's left hand.
Looking at Prince Son's gentle face and the bottle in his hand, Du Wei's heart was suddenly filled with complex thoughts. His right hand that was hidden in his chest pocket was touching the dagger … ….
At this moment, under the warm gaze of Prince Son, Du Wei only felt that the dagger in his hand weighed a thousand pounds. How could he possibly pull it out?!
