The Norman Palace in the city of St. Lawrence.

The majestic Norman Palace is still extremely luxurious, the cold wind of early winter blows over the gray-white marble columns, and the lavender veil, which symbolizes the authority of the royal family, flutters with the wind.

On both sides of the Avenue of King Power, the statues of the ancestors of the Norman Empire’s generations of heroes are arranged on both sides. Those statues based on the founding generals of the country all show unparalleled perseverance and pride.

As the winter is approaching, the green plants in the courtyard are already a bit yellowish, but under the meticulous pruning of the gardener, they still show a different kind of dignity, some square, some twists, and all kinds of The shape makes the garden of the palace unique.

Whether it is inside or outside the palace, the ground under your feet is spotless, and the fountain in the pool is still gushing out, but...

In the sound of the running water, the palace staff and attendants couldn't help showing their melancholy and perplexity about the future.

At this moment, although the grand and luxurious palace in front of you is still magnificent, but under the appearance of this grandeur, it is vaguely revealing a trace of depression.

Although Pitzman ordered the news to be blocked at the first time, news of the imperial guards' defeat in the central plains and the besieged St. Lawrence has spread all over the streets and alleys, and the Norman Palace in the city of St. Lawrence , Naturally is no exception.

First the city gates were blocked, and then the whole city was under martial law.

Under such circumstances, even a fool can see the grim situation Pitzman is facing now.

so……

These palace servants who lived in the Norman Palace and served His Majesty Pitzman were all very anxious about their future.

not to mention,

As the army outside the city began to attack the city, the stone bullets that fell from the sky also destroyed more and more houses. Everyone was worried whether their own would become another dead soul who lost their lives in this war.

And can their family members who are outside the palace escape this catastrophe?

To know,

Forcibly attacking the city means extremely tragic damage, which means that the soldiers who attacked the city are facing a life-long test, once the city gate is broken...

So in order to let the soldiers' emotions vent, even if this is the imperial capital, the capital of the entire Norman Empire, a plunder and massacre is still inevitable!

The soldiers may not dare to intrude on the nobles, but the unarmed civilians are bound to suffer.

It is precisely because of this that even if Pitzman repeatedly suppressed, the hearts of the people in the palace were still floating, and the panic continued to spread among the palace staff and attendants.

...

The main hall of the palace.

The nobles and ministers who used to surround Pitzmann have long since disappeared, and the magnificent main hall is particularly empty.

The pure gold candlestick on the side of the stone pillar exudes bright light. Under the sway of the candlelight, the emblem of the Alexander family of the Norman royal family hung in the middle of the main hall flickering and dimming.

Pitzman was sitting on the wide throne. He was originally arrogant, but his expression at this time seemed quite lonely.

There is an attendant on each side of the throne, but in such a depressed atmosphere, the attendants can only lower their heads and dare not make any noise.

When the news that the South City Gate was breached entered the palace, even His Majesty Pitzman, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, couldn't breathe for a while.

Originally... In Pitzman's expectation, he could hold on for at least a few months. As long as the winter was approaching and the army was inconvenient to supply, he would regain the opportunity to counterattack.

But what he didn't expect was...

Ryze even made up his mind to attack the city with all his strength regardless of casualties.

This is undoubtedly a blow to those civilian soldiers who have never been on the battlefield and have undergone training!

At the same time, it also brought an unprecedented sense of crisis to Pitzman himself.

"Where is the Chancellor of the Exchequer? Where is the Minister of Military Affairs? Where is the Secretary of the Seal? Where did they all die?!"

Looking at the empty hall in front of him, Pitzman gripped the handrail of the throne tightly, with strange anger in his heart.

"Return to your Majesty, the Minister of Finance said that he was unwell, and then... Then the Minister of Seal said that he... himself..."

While speaking, the attendant on the side suddenly knelt to the ground, stammering and tearing.

"Where is the Duke of Dorne? I haven't seen Yersin Perris for a few days..."

Pittsman paused, then forced to endure the anger in his heart, and asked coldly.

"The Duke of Dorn..."

The attendant clearly knew where the Duke of Dorne was going.

He hesitated for a while, and then cautiously said softly: "The Duke of Dorne is probably going... to meet Prince Ryze..."

"Damn! They are all **** traitors!"

"Before, they had always been pushing me to seek the throne, but at this critical moment, they are running faster than anyone else!"

Pitzman abruptly got up and directly overturned the heavy table in front of him, his anger almost uncontrollable.

At this moment,

Those aristocratic subjects who had previously regarded themselves as emperors and flattered them had disappeared when Ryze formed an encirclement.

Only the few attendants who have been following him are always cautiously waiting by their side.

"His Majesty……"

The attendant at his side was pulling at the corner of Pitzman's clothes, crying.

"At this time... in the palace, I'm afraid there is already a mess, right?"

Pitzman was a little lost and sat back on the throne under him again.

As the emperor and the creator of the entire defense plan, he knew better than anyone what the fall of the South City Gate meant.

Most of the elite of the Royal Guards were arranged there, and the commander of the Royal Guards, Ion Padilla, was personally seated. Once the south gate was lost... then the entire Saint Lawrence was already in danger, and he The short-term reign is about to disappear.

finally,

The attendant on the side could not help reminding:

"Your Majesty! Can't delay any longer, there are still nearly a thousand absolutely loyal elites in the palace. They can still delay for a while. We should leave here as soon as possible..."

"Leave? Where to go?"

Hearing this, Pitzman couldn't help smiling bitterly:

"Nobles, who still wants to stand with us? They all stood behind Ryze against us!"

The imperial capital was besieged, and the city gate was broken.

The elite soldiers have long been lost.

And besides his side, apart from a few attendants, he has long lost the support of any nobles, what else can he use to contend with Ryze? !

"Do not!"

At this moment,

A voice of vicissitudes came.

Under the candlelight, Bishop Fleming walked slowly out of the shadow of the marble pillar.

In Pitzman's slightly startled gaze, Bishop Fleming said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty Pitzman, wherever you go, the church will always be your strongest supporter."

Looking at the bishop who suddenly appeared in the main hall, Pitzman couldn't help but said in a cold voice: "Have all the soldiers outside the hall escaped?!"

"This is not the point!"

Facing Pitzman's gaze, Bishop Fleming said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty Pitzman, in the eyes of the church, Ryze, who killed his father and killed the king, is not worthy of becoming the emperor of the Norman Empire! The church is willing to provide you with shelter, and the gates of the holy city of Bethlehem are open for you! If you want, one day, The Crusades will help you return to St. Lawrence!"

"Bishop Fleming..."

Gradually,

Pitzman's eyes began to shine.

It doesn't make any sense to entangle how Bishop Fleming got in at this time.

As the German emperor of the Norman Empire, Pitzmann was naturally impressed by the bishop in front of him.

Bishop Fleming was personally appointed by Red Bishop Camus Blanchard, and was the archbishop responsible for all matters concerning the Church of the Beginning of Brightness in the capital, St. Lawrence.

The words of Bishop Fleming undoubtedly clearly clarified the church's position on this war.

church……

Turned out to support yourself? !

Thinking of this, Pitzman couldn't help but fall into contemplation.

If what Bishop Fleming is in is true...

The holy city of Bethlehem is located among the mountains in the southern part of the empire.

As long as he can leave St. Lawrence alive, then with the support of the church, he can regain a new life in the southern part of the empire, and the Holy See's control of the Holy See and the fierce public opinion will also make Ryze fall in love with him!

Naturally, Pitzman had also heard those from the eastern part of the empire about collusion between the church and the Odin Empire, and he also heard rumors about the Church of Light.

But……

At this moment, the olive branch that the church threw at him almost made Pitzman unable to refuse!

Although Pitzman is arrogant, he also has a normal way of thinking. He clearly realizes...If he falls into the hands of his younger brother Rez, then his head is definitely unavoidable.

after all……

The battle for the throne in the empire is not the first, and there are precedents to follow.

so,

Pitzman stared at Bishop Fleming in front of him, and asked hoarsely:

"The church... will it really support my rule over the empire?"

Upon hearing this, Bishop Fleming nodded affirmatively:

"That is natural. In the eyes of the Bright Church, you are the only legal heir to this land."

...

The battle in the city continued.

But the original deafening shouts of killing have become weaker and weaker.

it's easy to see……

The resistance of the defenders has come to an end.

The fall of the south gate of St. Lawrence was like a fuse, destroying the fighting will of the defenders in the city with a prairie fire.

Most of them were originally civilian soldiers who had been forcibly recruited. Now that the situation has gone, they are facing a siege army like a wolf and a tiger. Where can they remember the military rules and regulations?

Naturally, they all threw away their weapons and fled in all directions.

But St. Lawrence is after all the largest city in the middle of the empire. Even on the afternoon of the fourth day, the southern gate was captured, but when the army under Leyz basically controlled the situation, they killed and guarded several other gates. After the defenders, it was already the morning of the fifth day.

Except for a handful of soldiers loyal to Pitzman, they still fought around the palace. In the entire city of St. Lawrence, except for the palace, all of them were controlled by Leyz.

When Leizi finally stepped into the city at noon on the fifth day, under the guard of the soldiers, the many nobles who lived in the capital of St. Lawrence had already been in the Duke of Dorn, Yersin Perris. Under the leadership of the city, they knelt in a row from the gate of the city.

Looking around,

There were thirty or forty nobles kneeling at the door, and even the lowest rank among them was an earl.

As for the viscounts and barons under the earl...

Pooh!

Those low-ranking nobles, are they worthy to welcome His Majesty Rez? !

If you want to welcome His Majesty Rez into the city in front of the city gate, at least he must be an earl?

"His Majesty Rez, the true emperor of the great Norman Empire, the Peris family is willing to swear allegiance to you."

The Duke of Donne knelt at the front of the noble line and spoke first.

Prior to this, Duke of Dorn Yersin Peris had always been Pittsmann’s most steadfast supporter, for no other reason, that is, Ryze “ceded” his family fiefdom to the barbarians of the Odin Empire. .

But now...

Who cares about the fief! Being able to keep one's life and title, that is already an exceptional gift!

Looking at these nobles and nobles who knelt on the ground in front of him, Rez felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Although at least half of the people were forcibly left behind by Pitzman after the defeat of the Central Plains.

But Leizi knew very well...

Most of the nobles who were able to stay in St. Lawrence at that time were more inclined to Pitzman in their hearts.

but now……

After seeing that the general situation was over, the nobles in front of them all abandoned Pitzman without hesitation, hoping to surrender to themselves.

Seeing that Ryze had never spoken, the old Duke of Dorne trembled all over, and continued to speak:

"The reason why Zai Xia failed to loyal to His Majesty in advance was because of the rebellious and closed gate of Pitzman. He not only humiliated us at every turn, but also rancorously and aggressively, provoking anger and resentment throughout the entire empire."

"And today, His Majesty Rez has finally restored the imperial capital, and everyone present feels heartfelt joy and encouragement!"

At this time, Leizi didn't bother to pay attention to the nobles in front of the nobles himself, but he still said in a deep voice:

"Get up all!"

After that, he walked towards the city under the guard of the soldiers.

Returning to the city where he had lived for a long time, Rez felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

He was very grateful for the victory, but he was not dazzled by the victory.

If he is not the ultimate victor, I am afraid that today's situation will be completely reversed. At that time, I am afraid that those nobles standing behind him, like the Duke of Dorne, will bow down in front of Pittman.

but……

Time will not reverse, you are the ultimate winner!

With a long sigh, Ryze crossed the city gate and rode his horse towards the city.

The streets in the city are very cold, and there are still a lot of blood and corpses on the streets.

Due to the large-scale use of trebuchets by the siege army, many houses on the roadside have been turned into ruins, with a lot of broken walls and blood stains.

no doubt,

After the army invaded the city, it still went through an extremely fierce battle~www.novelbuddy.com~ before finally completely taking the giant city in front of us.

The gates of the Norman Palace have been damaged a lot, and the soldiers under Retz, under the leadership of Marshal Teodoro, are searching for the surviving enemy forces among the broken walls.

However……

The moment Marshal Teodoro saw Rez, he hurriedly walked towards him, his expression revealing a little anxiety.

"Your Majesty Rez..."

Teodoro Lawton seemed hesitant.

Seeing the look of Marshal Teodoro, Rez, who had originally felt that he had a chance to win, couldn't help but feel tight, and quickly asked:

"What's wrong?!"

Upon seeing this, Teodoro replied with difficulty:

"It's Pittsman... Your Majesty Rez, we didn't find Pittsman in the palace, he seems to... escaped..."
