Chapter 489 The Princess’s Encouragement
Ariel, who had just stepped onto the general stage, immediately attracted the attention of all the soldiers present.
Under the reflection of many magic light balls suspended in mid-air, Ariel was still wearing the neat red and gold outfit, and her previously tied high ponytail had been carefully tied behind her head.
Such a neat look that also reveals a bit of nobility, coupled with her indifferent yet delicate face, makes Ariel's graceful look a bit sassy.
But the most eye-catching thing is the half-moon-shaped princess crown that Ariel wears again.
I saw the shining silver princess crown studded with precious stones. It exuded a faint brilliance and the magic light ball complemented each other. It looked like a dream and made people feel astonished.
The shield-shaped golden lion heraldry banner that symbolizes the Leng Yan royal family is also standing on the general platform, and is flapping in the night wind.
For a moment, Ariel stood under the royal coat of arms, with a slender and tall figure, and a heroic appearance. Coupled with her awe-inspiring white face, she gave people a rather majestic feeling.
Looking at Ariel's delicate face, every soldier was filled with excitement and began to cheer.
"Her Royal Highness, indeed Her Royal Highness!"
"I didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess would actually come to this dangerous battlefield in person. We are so flattered!"
"Your Highness, the Princess, can see me, Leng Yan, before the battle. I will die without regrets!"
"Your Royal Highness, I am Weber's son, Sotmasin! Currently serving as the captain of the heavy cavalry squadron, your father was once the king's bodyguard and gained supreme honor. I am willing to fight for Leng Yan! I am willing to fight for the princess. And fight!”
"My lord, little Keith, son of Keith, our family has been fighting to protect Lengyan since the age of the King of Heroes, and it is the same today!"
……
Along with the shouts one after another, the atmosphere in the entire school grounds began to become more and more heated.
I saw that the soldiers became more and more excited as they talked. It seemed that the crowd was excited and their morale was greatly boosted.
After seeing this scene, Lei Xiao, who was standing in the corner next to the general station, nodded slightly.
Ariel was able to achieve such an effect before she even opened her mouth. Her popularity was indeed very impressive.
"With the reinforcements delayed in arriving and the Holy Night army pressing down on the territory, it is normal for the morale in the fortress to be low. Some may even feel that they have become the abandoned son of the Leng Yan royal family."
< br>
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, thinking to himself: "And now, the appearance of Ariel, a member of the royal family, undoubtedly shows that the royal family has not abandoned this place. This must be the main reason why everyone is excited."< br>
"Furthermore, Ariel's reputation and popularity in Leng Yan were already very good. Coupled with the desperate struggle for power in the royal capital and the jealousy of the three princes, Ariel's reputation is declining day by day."
< br>
"The situation is changing, and the superiors and superiors make judgments. This is another important reason why the soldiers are excited, or why Ariel is welcomed."
"Finally, this fortress legion is one of the eight legions directly affiliated with the Lengyan royal family. It has extremely high loyalty. It is naturally expected that such an exciting situation will occur when meeting the royal princess. .”
Just when Lei Xiao looked at Ariel's slender figure and thought about this.
On the general stage, Mr. Bai, who was wearing heavy armor, first walked to Ariel's side, raised his hands and pressed them down slightly, making a quiet gesture.
The next second, the huge campus with nearly ten thousand people standing suddenly became silent.
"Dear brave soldiers of the Fortress Corps, during this period of time, we have experienced too many bloody battles and endured too much pressure."
Bai Lao nodded slightly to the soldiers in the audience. His old face was full of solemnity, and then a touch of contempt and disdain emerged: "But, what can this do?"
"Facing several times the number of enemies, we still stand here to prevent the enemies from taking another step forward! They hate us, but they cannot defeat us!"
Bai Lao's voice became louder and louder, as if it contained a huge amount of power: "All this is just because we are far more powerful than what they fear! Just because we are the enemy's nightmare!"
"We are the enemy's nightmare, we are the enemy's nightmare!"
The atmosphere in the audience also began to become more and more exciting.
While feeling the hot atmosphere, Lei Xiao's eyes moved upward, and finally landed on the giant translucent magic barrier covering the entire school grounds.
According to Bai Lao, this is a special silent barrier that can completely block the sound emitted in the school grounds, preventing the sound from spreading to the outside world and attracting the enemy's attention.
"And today, our Princess has seen our perseverance and our strength! She is willing to advance and retreat with us and fight side by side!"
Bai Lao made a quiet gesture again, and said solemnly: "Next, Her Royal Highness has to say a few words, let us welcome Her Royal Highness!"
After finishing speaking, Mr. Bai first gave up his position, then knelt down on one knee and lowered his head deeply to Ariel.
"Welcome to Your Highness the Princess!"
The sound of armors clashing neatly sounded, and all the Lengyan commanders and soldiers present knelt down on one knee and made the same action.
For a time, the scene of thousands of people saluting was extremely spectacular.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao, surrounded by Polygonum Weed and Hongye, raised his eyebrows slightly.
Among the tens of thousands of people in the venue, only the three of them remained standing.
"All Lengyan soldiers, please rise."
Ariel raised her hand to everyone present, and said with awe on her fair face: "Tonight, I am no different from everyone else, we will all fight for Leng Yan."
Seeing that everyone had stood up, Ariel looked solemn and continued: "You must all know that before dawn tomorrow, we will face a bloody battle."
"And this fortress is the last line of defense of the kingdom. Once it is lost, the mountains and rivers will be broken, and all life will be in ruins. Our homeland will no longer exist, and our descendants will be slaves forever."
Ariel took a deep breath of the cold air and said solemnly: "What this battle will determine is not only the life and death of each of us, but also the future of our descendants and the kingdom!"
At this point, Ariel looked at the commanders and soldiers in the audience who were starting to look solemn, her eyes were sincere but full of determination and said: "So, I will not make any promises to you about promotions or promotions. , and won’t talk about the glory of the warrior.”
"I just want you to know that we have no retreat from this battle! If we fall, the enemy will take everything away without mercy!"
After hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao noticed.
The atmosphere of the soldiers just now was high, and it had gradually turned into a strong fighting spirit. I could even hear the faint friction sounds when the soldiers clenched their weapons.
"...It is true that the royal capital is in chaos now, resulting in the delay in the arrival of reinforcements. And the enemy has spotted this and is preparing to take our lives while we are terminally ill."
Ariel's crisp voice became louder and louder: "But what they don't know is that when a warrior has no retreat, it is also the time when he is the most heroic and the sword in his hand is the sharpest!" < br>
"The road under our feet is paved by the bones of the martyrs. We will never let them down, and the place where we fall will be the road paved for the future generations. They will not be disappointed in us either!"< br>
Ariel's high-pitched and passionate voice was almost hoarse: "Let the enemies come. This is the place where we grew up, the place we love deeply, and the place we stick to. Whoever dares to set foot on our land will be punished by us." Kill them all!”
"Kill them all! Kill them all!"
As soon as Ariel said this, the slightly depressed atmosphere in the audience was completely ignited.
Wave after wave of firm voices began to erupt continuously in the soldiers' camp, almost deafening.
"Let the enemies come, we will turn this place into their tomb! Let them never dare to come back again!"
Ariel's excited clear voice once again spread to every corner of the huge campus.
Looking at the Lengyan soldiers whose morale was at its peak, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
It has to be said that Ariel is indeed quite talented as a leader, and even she was a little infected by this passionate scene.
After that, a large number of slogans such as "Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess", "Wish to live and die together with Her Royal Highness", and "Leng Yan Kingdom will win" were heard in the school grounds.
After Ariel finished speaking, Mr. Bai introduced Bert and Jubai respectively, which greatly improved the morale of the soldiers of the Cold Flame Army.
Finally, after Bai Lao's emphatically introduced, and at Lei Xiao's signal, Hongye, who was wearing a dark green loose hood, did not go on stage, but a vast aura erupted from her body, covering the entire venue. , so as not to flow out.
At this moment, it can be said that the huge venue was directly pushed to its climax, and the morale of the soldiers was also directly reached its peak.
"Fifth-level strong men! In addition to the three kingdom generals, we actually have the assistance of fifth-level strong men!"
"It seems that the royal family did not abandon us and directly sent a powerful fifth-level expert! We will win for sure!"
"You holy night bitches, let them come. We will take back everything we lost before!"
"Long live the Kingdom of Cold Flame! Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
……
"A fifth-level powerhouse at the national level can indeed greatly improve morale."
Seeing the instantly explosive atmosphere, Lei Xiao, who was also wearing a hood, nodded again with satisfaction.
As for the knotweed, according to the previous deployment, Lei Xiao did not directly expose it, but kept a low profile by his side.
When everything came to an end, Lei Xiao sent Hong Ye to follow Ariel. Under the guidance of Bai Lao, he escorted Ariel, Burt, and Ju Bai, secretly heading to the other two fortresses on the left and right mountainside, and continued Boost morale.
Lei Xiao himself returned to the luxurious reception room of the castle with Hu Zhi, quietly waiting for everyone to return.
The battle will start before dawn tomorrow, so Lei Xiao naturally has no time to return to his territory.
During the rest, Lei Xiao first contacted the commander-in-chief Rogge, the deputy commander Bai Zhi, and the logistics commander old housekeeper Ward who were far away in the territory through chanting. He briefly informed the current situation and ordered everything in the territory to continue as usual. .
Within the territory, tomorrow will also be the expansion of the trenches outside the territory, the construction of a new canteen in the territory, and the construction of the magician squadron's charging array.
After that, Lei Xiao contacted Su Ru and Su Mo's brother and sister, Sun Qi, Zhao Lu, Zhang Shan, and Shen Banxia who was far away in the Forest of Two Moons through private messages.
Inform them that today's manufacturing results will be postponed, and tomorrow morning's manufacturing will also be postponed. They will be notified of the specific time.
After finishing all the matters, Lei Xiao could not help but think deeply while sipping the fragrant tea he had just brewed.
At present, everything has been arranged properly, and the secret magic scroll used by Ogu to send signals has been put into the storage ring by Ye Cang, waiting to be activated.
In his mind, he once again reviewed the details of the plan he had just agreed with Bai Lao. Lei Xiao seemed to have thought of something, and opened his mouth again, making another important arrangement to be prepared.
As for the movements of the Holy Night Army, Lei Xiao has also ordered the Nanxing and Nanyue sisters, who are good at hiding, to further monitor.
According to Bai Lao, the Holy Night Army's camp, especially the area near the commander's tent, is extremely heavily guarded. Not only is it heavily guarded, but it also has high-strength detection and defense magic combinations. The world exists and is simply inaccessible.
Therefore, Lei Xiao just let the twin sisters rest on the spot and take turns monitoring the dynamics of the entire camp, without getting too close to avoid alerting the enemy.
As for the six people, Ye Cang, Chao Yan, Bai Wei, Lin, A Ling, and A Bing, who were monitoring key crossings in various parts of the fortress, they came back to rest in batches and recharge their batteries for the battle before dawn tomorrow.
It didn't take long, and under the protection of Hong Ye, the three Ariels, who had returned successfully, returned to the living room.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work."
Bai Lao bowed slightly to Ariel and said: "In order for the battle before dawn to proceed smoothly, I have ordered the soldiers in the fortress to rest in batches. Please, Your Highness the Princess, also rest."
At this point, Bai Lao nodded to Lei Xiao again and said: "Your Excellency, guest minister, you have also worked hard. I have arranged enough bedrooms, just at the other end of this floor of the castle."
"There's no need to be polite, General Bai. Then we'd rather be respectful than obey your orders."
Lei Xiao smiled and nodded, responding.
Lei Xiao understood clearly, just like what he had just thought.
At present, everything I can do has been done.
Next, of course, we are waiting for the Holy Night Army to come to our door.
After that, under the guidance of Bai Lao, Lei Xiao came to the bedroom. First, he deployed a team of Earth Guardians to guard the spacious room. Then he lay down on the big bed in the center of the room and took the time to rest. .
As for Huzhang and others, they were arranged in the rooms around Lei Xiao.
"The night is not yet deep, so there is plenty of time to rest..."
Lei Xiao thought this as he relaxed, and his even breathing soon started to sound.
……
Some time passed, and when Lei Xiao opened his eyes again, the prompting sound of rapid words was already ringing in his ears. (End of chapter)
