Chapter 708 The enemy is in the National Assembly
Belloberg is under martial law.
Although the army and steam knights have begun to appear on the streets since the news that the Queen was critically ill, they did not enter a state of martial law before, but only implemented a curfew.
But with the news of the attack on the Northern Lords, the army and steam knights controlled by the royalists began martial law.
They blocked the road leading to the National Assembly and prohibited people from leaving their homes. The streets were filled with troops and steam riders rumbling as they walked.
Suddenly, the whole Belloberg was in turmoil, and various rumors were flying all over the sky.
Some people say that the Earl of the North launched a coup to purge the entire Belloberg. Some people say that the Queen died and the royalists wanted to support Princess Anne to ascend the throne. Others say that Perficott has already The insects who couldn't stand the cabinet wanted to take the opportunity to seize the supreme rule of the empire. Some even said that Prince Edward was back and he wanted to take back his throne...
In short, all kinds of outrageous remarks were spread everywhere. .
Although people cannot leave their homes, news spreads everywhere unknowingly.
However, just as the royalists blocked the entire Belloberg with troops loyal to the royal family, blocking other uncontrolled armies and knights in the barracks, they also controlled the National Assembly building and most of the members. , when I thought the overall situation was decided, a piece of bad news came like a bolt from the blue.
Purficott's airship arrived in the sky above Beloberg, and the established flying knights had already formed a formation in the sky.
But this is not the key to the bad news. What is really fatal is that although the Northern Lord's special train was attacked, it still drove to the outside of Belloberg City. It was parked outside the city at this time, and it seemed that Waiting for something.
"How is this possible? We sent an entire field infantry regiment to attack her. She should be dead!" The royalist officials couldn't believe it.
In their opinion, an entire field infantry regiment was dispatched to attack Purficott. Without her preparation, she should not be able to withstand an attack even if she had the Steam Knight with her!
They also specifically consulted the knights loyal to the royal family for advice. They all said that when the knights were not wearing armor, they would not be able to respond in time to a sudden attack, especially an attack from field infantry artillery. The knight who had not yet put on the steam armor tore into pieces.
According to their assumptions, the artillery bombardment of the infantry regiment should have blown up the special train on which Perfectcott was riding immediately, destroyed the steam armor carried by the knights around her, and even gone one step further and hit Perfectcott with the first shot. dead.
Even if not, they still have a second hand reserved. An entire knights regiment at their disposal is on standby with the infantry regiment.
Although not all knights are guard knights, and not all knights are so luxurious as to be equipped with steam knight armor, the entire knights can still put together dozens of steam knight armors.
In their opinion, even if Purficott did not die in the first attack, the subsequent second wave of bombardment and the attack of the steam knight would be enough to crush this little boy who was not yet 18 years old. The girl struggled all over.
Even if she has a steam knight with her, her own steam knight will win with a numerical advantage.
However, what they didn't expect was that Purficott's special train had not been stopped, and now it appeared outside the city where martial law had been declared, as if it would start attacking the city when additional troops arrived.
As for the airships and flying knights in the sky, they have moved over the city and do not seem to intend to act with the troops outside the city.
In the National Assembly Building, all members of the royalist party have gathered here after the completion of martial law. They are preparing to wait until the news that the Northern Lords have been resolved is confirmed, and then launch a new National Assembly vote, thus Enact new laws and take complete control of the situation. However, at this time, the news came that Purficott's special train had not been destroyed, which shocked all of them.
Someone was obviously shaken.
After all, since the Northern Territory has not been resolved, their current behavior can easily be characterized as a rebellion or coup.
"Now is not the time to care about why she is still alive. Order the troops to attack and kill her!" The radical royalist members shouted, obviously wanting to turn this matter into a fact.
"Are you crazy? Forget about attacking her, launching a direct attack now is equivalent to starting a war with the North!" Others were not so crazy and tried to persuade the other party not to go to extremes.
After all, they are no longer sure whether they can solve Perficott. If the northern lords retreat and mobilize the northern army to attack, they cannot afford a real war.
It might be reasonable to send troops to attack the northern lords, but at the worst it could be a coup, or it could be just any crime charged to Purficott.
As long as we can really deal with her, everything will not be a problem, whether we catch her alive or kill her directly.
But sending troops to attack the Northern Lords without solving Perficott is a sure sign of war.
When the army in the north and the army loyal to the royal family start fighting, the result will be something that no one wants to see.

"I'm not crazy! We have no retreat at this time! Once the Northern Lord enters the city or leaves, we will all be passive! We can only deal with her now and make this matter an established fact. Only then can we control the situation!" Radical royalist The party members explained to others, and at the same time said to them sincerely: "Think about this country! We have no retreat. Only by solving her here can we solve the threat posed by the Northern Faction and guide this country." Back on track!”
"But...we couldn't kill her even if we attacked her in the wild. Is it really feasible to attack her now?" Someone seemed to start to shrink back.
"Whether it's possible or not, we have no retreat. This is our only choice, understand? Unless you want to surrender to her, see if this bloody Earl will show mercy to you!" Radical The royalist members looked angry, as if they thought these guys were too weak.
However, in the end, under his persuasion, the royalists made the decision to attack Perficott.
The army and knights controlled by the royalists launched an attack on Perfectcourt's train, this time they invested more troops.
But in the face of the incoming army, the Northern Lord's special train just flew up with a steam knight.
"The enemy is in the National Assembly Building, deal with them." Purficott just gave the order indifferently, while Befa flying in the sky started killing.
