Chapter 489 The Princess' Encouragement

Ariel, who had just stepped onto the platform, immediately attracted the attention of all the soldiers present.

Under the reflection of many magic light spheres suspended in mid-air, Ariel was still wearing the neat red and gold outfit, and the ponytail that was tied high before was carefully coiled behind her head.

Such a neat yet a bit extravagant shape, combined with a calm but delicate face, makes Ariel look a bit sassy in her grace.

But the most eye-catching thing is the half-moon princess crown that Ariel is wearing again.

The small silver princess crown inlaid with precious stones is shining brightly, exuding a faint splendor and reflecting the magic light ball, which looks like a dream, which makes people feel amazed.

And the shield-shaped golden lion heraldry banner, which symbolized the Lengyan royal family, was also standing on the general platform, and it was hunting against the night wind.

For a moment, Ariel, who was standing under the royal coat of arms, had a slender and tall figure with a radiant heroic appearance. Coupled with her awe-inspiring fair face, it gave people a rather majestic feeling.

Looking at Ariel's exquisite face, every soldier was full of excitement and began to cheer.

"His Royal Highness, it really is Her Royal Highness!"

"I didn't expect Her Royal Highness to come to the front line of this dangerous battlefield in person. I'm flattered!"

"Your Highness Princess, who can see me Lengyan before the battle, I will die without regret!"

"Your Royal Highness, this subject is the son of Weber, Sotmasin! He is currently serving as the captain of the heavy cavalry squadron. This subject's father was once the king's bodyguard and has won the highest honor. This subject is willing to fight for Lengyan! Willing to fight for the princess! and fight!"

"Little Cass, the son of my servant, Cass, the family has been fighting to protect Leng Yan since the era of the King of Heroes, and it is still the same today!"

...

With the shouts one after another, the atmosphere of the entire school field began to become more and more heated.

I saw that the soldiers became more and more excited as they talked, and they looked enthusiastic, which could be said to boost their morale.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao, who was standing in the corner beside the stage, nodded slightly.

Before Ariel opened her mouth, she was able to achieve such an effect, and her popularity was indeed extremely impressive.

"Under the situation that the reinforcements have not arrived and the Holy Night's army is pressing down on the border, it is very normal for the morale in the fortress to be low. Some people even feel that they have become the outcasts of the Lengyan royal family."

Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, thinking to himself: "And now, the appearance of Ariel, who is a member of the royal family, undoubtedly shows that the royal family has not abandoned this place. Presumably this is the main reason for everyone's excitement."

"Furthermore, Ariel's reputation and popularity in Leng Yan are already very good. In addition, the three princes in the capital are desperately fighting for power and profit, and the reputation is declining day by day."

"The ups and downs of each other make judgments. This is another important reason why the soldiers are excited, or Ariel is welcomed."

"Finally, this fortress legion is one of the eight major legions directly belonging to the Lengyan royal family. It has a very high degree of loyalty. It is naturally expected that such an exciting situation will occur after seeing the royal princess. .”

Just when Lei Xiao looked at Ariel's slender figure and thought about it.

On the stage, Bai Lao in heavy armor first walked to Ariel's side, raised his hands and lowered them slightly, making a quiet gesture.

In the next second, the huge school field where nearly 10,000 people were standing suddenly became silent.

"Brave soldiers of the Fortress Legion, we have experienced too many bloody battles and endured too much pressure during this period of time."

Bai Lao nodded slightly to the soldiers in the audience, his old face was full of solemnity, and then there was a touch of contempt and disdain: "But, so what?"

"In the face of several times the enemy, we are still standing here so that the enemy can't move forward! They hate us, but they can't defeat us!"

Bai Lao's voice became more and more high-pitched, as if it contained great power: "All this is because we are far stronger 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 heated.

While feeling the fiery atmosphere, Lei Xiao's gaze moved upwards, and finally landed on the giant translucent magic barrier covering the entire school grounds.

According to Bai Lao's introduction, this is a special silent enchantment, which can completely block the sound from the school grounds, preventing the sound from being transmitted to the outside world, and then attracting the attention of the enemy.

"And today, our princess, Her Royal Highness, has seen our persistence 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 wants to say a few words, let us welcome Her Highness!"

After speaking, Elder Bai gave up his seat first, then knelt down on one knee, and lowered his head deeply to Ariel.

"Welcome Your Royal Highness Princess!"

The sound of neatly armor clashing sounded, and all the Leng Yan commanders and soldiers present also knelt on one knee and made the same movement.

For a time, the scene of thousands of people saluting can be described as extremely spectacular.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao, surrounded by the knotweed and the red night, slightly raised his eyebrows.

In the venue of tens of thousands of people, only the three of them still maintained their standing posture.

"Soldiers of Lengyan, please rise up."

Ariel raised her hand to everyone present, her fair face was full of awe and said: "Tonight, I am no different from everyone else, I will fight for Leng Yan."

Seeing that everyone had got up, Ariel looked serious, and continued: "I think everyone already knows that before dawn tomorrow, we will face a bloody battle."

"And this fortress is the kingdom's last line of defense. Once it falls here, the mountains and rivers will be broken, and the people will die, our homeland will cease to exist, and our descendants will be slaves forever."

Ariel took a deep breath of the chilly air, and said solemnly: "What this battle decides is not only the life and death of each of us, but also the future of our descendants and the kingdom!"

Speaking of this, Ariel looked at the commanders and soldiers who were also dignified in the audience, her eyes were sincere but full of firmness and said: "So, I will not make any promises to you to be promoted , and won’t talk about the glory of a warrior.”

"I just want everyone to know that we have no retreat in this battle! If we fall, the enemy will take everything without mercy!"

Hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao noticed.

The atmosphere of the soldiers was high just now, and it has gradually turned into a strong fighting spirit. I can even hear the faint sound of rubbing when the soldiers hold their weapons tightly.

"...It is true that the capital is indeed in a mess right now, which has caused the reinforcements to be unable to arrive. The enemy has also spotted this and is going to take advantage of our terminal illness to kill us."

Ariel's shrill voice became louder and louder: "But what they don't know is that when a warrior is unable to retreat, he is also the most heroic and the sharpest sword in his hand!"

"The road under our feet is paved with the bones of the martyrs. We must not let them down, and the place where we fell will be the road paved for the younger generations. They will not be disappointed with us either!"

Ariel's high-pitched and passionate voice was almost hoarse: "Let the enemy come. This is the place we grew up, the place we love deeply, and the place we hold on 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 these words, the slightly suppressed atmosphere in the audience just now was completely ignited.

Wave after wave of firm voices began to erupt in the soldiers' camp, almost deafening.

"Let the enemy come, we will turn this place into their grave! Let them never dare to come back!"

Ariel's agitated and crisp voice once again spread to every corner of the huge school grounds.

Looking at the Lengyan soldiers whose morale was at its peak, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

It has to be said that Ariel is indeed quite gifted as a leader, and even she was somewhat infected by this passionate scene.

Then, a lot of slogans such as "Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess", "Wish to live and die together with Her Royal Highness", "The Kingdom of Cold Flame Will Win" and other slogans rang out in the school grounds.

After Ariel finished speaking, Mr. Bai introduced Bert and Jubai respectively, which boosted the morale of the soldiers of the Lengyan Army a lot.

In the end, after Bai Lao's emphatic introduction, and under Lei Xiao's signal, Hong Ye, who was wearing a dark green loose hood, did not appear on the stage, but a vast aura erupted from his body, covering the entire venue , not to flow out.

This time, it can be said that the huge meeting place was directly pushed to the climax, and the morale of the soldiers also directly reached the peak.

"Fifth-rank powerhouse! In addition to the three kingdom generals sitting in command, we actually have the assistance of a fifth-rank powerhouse!"

"It seems that the royal family did not abandon us, and directly sent a powerful fifth-order expert! We are sure to win!"

"The bastards of Holy Night, let them come, we will take back everything we lost before!"

"Long live the Cold Flame Kingdom! Long live Your Royal Highness!"

...

"The fifth-order powerhouse at the Zhenguo level can indeed greatly improve morale."

Seeing the instant explosion of the atmosphere, Lei Xiao, who was also wearing a hood all the time, nodded in satisfaction again.

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, and under Bai Lao's guidance, escorted Ariel, Bert, and Jubai to the other two fortresses on the left and right mountainsides secretly, and continued Boost morale.

And Lei Xiao himself returned to the luxurious reception room of the castle with the knotweed, quietly waiting for everyone to return.

The battle will start before dawn tomorrow, so Lei Xiao naturally has no time to return to the territory.

During the rest, Lei Xiao first contacted Rogge, the commander-in-chief, Bai Zhi, the deputy commander, and Ward, the logistics commander, who were far away in the territory, and briefly informed them of 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 the new canteen in the territory, and the construction of the magician squadron's charging circle.

Afterwards, Lei Xiao contacted Su Ru, 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 the delivery of today's manufacturing results will be postponed, and that tomorrow morning's manufacturing will also be postponed, and they will be notified of the specific time.

After finishing all matters, Lei Xiao couldn't help but ponder again while sipping the freshly brewed fragrant tea.

At present, everything has been properly deployed, and the secret magic scroll used by Aogu to send signals has also been collected by Ye Cang into the storage ring, waiting to be activated.

In his mind, he went over the details of the strategy that he had agreed with Bai Lao just now, Lei Xiao seemed to have thought of something, opened his mind again, and made another important arrangement to be prepared.

As for the movements of the Holy Night Army, Lei Xiao had already ordered the sisters Nanxing and Nanyue, who were good at hiding, to go further to monitor.

According to Bai Lao, the camp of the Holy Night Army, especially in the area near the commander's tent, is extremely heavily guarded, not only heavily guarded, but also has a high-intensity detection and defense magic combination. The world exists and cannot be approached at all.

Therefore, Lei Xiao just asked the twin sisters to rest on the spot and take turns to monitor the movement of the entire camp.

As for Ye Cang, Chao Yan, Bai Wei, Lin, A Ling, and A Bing who were watching at the main crossings in the fortress, they came back to rest in batches to recharge their batteries for the battle before tomorrow.

It didn't take long, under the protection of Hong Ye, the three Ariel who returned safely returned to the living room.

"His Royal Highness has worked hard."

Elder Bai bowed slightly to Ariel, and said, "For the smooth progress of the battle before dawn, the old minister has ordered the soldiers in the fortress to rest in batches. Your Royal Highness, please rest too."

Speaking of this, Bai Lao nodded to Lei Xiao again and said: "Your Excellency, Ke Qing, has also worked hard. I have already arranged enough bedrooms, which are just on the other side of the castle floor."

"Old General Bai, you don't have to be polite, then we'd better obey orders than be respectful."

Lei Xiao nodded with a smile and replied.

Lei Xiao understood clearly, just like what he thought just now.

For now, everything I can do has been done.

Next, it was natural to wait for the Holy Night Army to come to your door.

After that, under the guidance of Bai Lao, Lei Xiao came to the bedroom, first deployed a team of earth guardians around the spacious room to guard, and then lay on the big bed in the middle of the room, taking the time to rest .

As for Hu Zhang and the others, they were arranged in the rooms on Lei Xiao's left and right respectively.

"The night is not yet deep, and the time to rest is quite sufficient..."

As Lei Xiao thought about it, he relaxed, and the sound of even breathing soon sounded.

...

After some time passed, when Lei Xiao opened his eyes again, the sound of prompting to read quickly rang in his ears.
