Chapter 567: The Empire's Sun
The supervising team just had great power. Under the long sword like a wolf and a tiger, they all became dead souls under the sword.
"Field, your crime of betrayal will definitely be punished with the cruelest punishment, and you will go to hell."
Im screamed tremblingly, but before he could finish his words, the guard beside him suddenly jumped up and stabbed him to death. He also vomited blood and died.
"What's going on!" Field was shocked, something happened so quickly.
"Sir, these guards seem to have poison in their mouths. It's really strange. They are not the queen's people. Why would they bring these things?"
Asheena was confused.
"Maybe it's because he's afraid that some secrets will be known by others." Field shrugged, "It's probably because it's about harming the noble coalition. They need to supervise the battle, but they're also afraid that the supervising team won't be able to keep their mouths shut."

After killing the supervising team, Field felt inexplicably uneasy and irritable, and immediately urged the army to take action: "We are ready to take action."
"This place is about to become a battlefield, and we can't stay here any longer. The chaos of the war is the best time to escape."
The reason why I didn't run around before was because I didn't know the enemy's situation, and all major passes and roads were under the supervision of both parties. There was no difference between running around and dying.
In this battle, the rebels have a sixth-level divine choice, and they are likely to die suddenly if they run around.
But it will be different after the official war. Both sides will become a mess.
Field opened the small map, and a large number of markers appeared on the edge of the map, including red markers for the rebels and green markers for his own army.
"Sir, where should we go?"
"Go west. As for the specific direction, it depends on the situation of the war. It is best not to run into a large-scale enemy force."
Field pondered for a moment: "Let's go to the periphery of the main battlefield first and observe the situation. Only when the main force starts a decisive battle will we have a chance to operate."
The army raised its camp and marched toward the west in a mighty manner.
"How do you think the outcome will be?" Field turned to ask his chosen one.
"I think the empire has a good chance of winning."
Ashina pondered for a moment: "The Imperial Legion is extremely powerful. Even if the Queen's command is messed up, the combat power is still unmatched. What's more, the noble coalition was completely wiped out by the enemy, and it had no impact on the Queen's headquarters."
"You can even wait for work in leisure." Gheros also thought so. "The rebels defeated more than 30,000 noble coalition forces, so how much physical strength can they have to fight."
"That makes sense."
Although Field agreed with their views, he instinctively felt uneasy: "I always feel that something will go wrong. What kind of trump card does the empire have that it dares to murder its own nobles on the battlefield?"
"At best, there will be a stalemate. The Imperial Army may be pushed back into the fortress." Asuna scratched her ears. "Just like the previous wars between humans and demi-humans, it will eventually turn into a stalemate and an offensive and defensive war, which can even last for half a year. ”
After marching for half a day, Field found a hidden mountainous area. Standing on the top of the mountain, he could see several main roads in the distance.
The next day, at a quarter past ten in the morning, the legions of the Griffin Empire finished their lunch early.
"Woo~" I heard the dull sound of the horn.
Several city gates of the Fortress of Immortality were opened simultaneously, and thousands of soldiers poured out. In a short time, the noble legions and the imperial legions stretched for more than ten miles. Officers and nobles at all levels continued to issue orders, and a large number of messengers and magicians came and went to deliver orders to the soldiers.
Similarly, a continuous line of Juma, sentry towers, bunkers, and earthen walls stretches all the way.
"There are at least 80,000 regular troops. Counting engineers, cannon fodder and logistics, there are 170,000 to 80,000 on the battlefield, let alone the rear area."
Field stood on the mountain and looked out, and couldn't help but be shocked: "This is the true strength of the empire."
What’s even more frightening is that the Fortress of Immortality is only one of the three major directions of attack.
A large number of troops were also retained to guard against the elves and demi-humans.
The several armies at the front are the noble coalition forces. Led by the highly respected Marquis Jarvan, one of the seven electors in the empire, it is theoretically possible to become emperor.
"Elector" is different from "marquis". It is a unique title, mainly related to etiquette. A powerful elector may be stronger than a grand duke, while a weak elector may not even be as good as a count.
It would be more intuitive to understand the "elector" as the earliest founder of the company, and the nobles as shareholders. The founder can be a shareholder, but the shareholder does not have to be the founder.
The imperial aristocratic structure consists of one emperor, three princes, and seven electors. Except for the death of the Golden Lion Grand Duke, the rest are all fine.
Through the forest of tiers of spears and halberds, Elector Jarvan majestically scanned the military formation ahead. With a flick of his red armor, he burst out with powerful fighting spirit. Although he was already eighty years old, he was still as powerful as a tiger descending from the mountain.
A girl holding a ferocious red bow and wearing a white-red long skirt-like military uniform with a long ponytail and a heroic appearance was shrouded by divine power like a red glow. She was actually standing in the void, and she felt unprecedented oppression at a glance.
"Level 6... is the Elector's Divine Chosen One, Xilios. He is known as the Imperial Sun. He is an out-and-out genius." As a nobleman, Gherroth knows a lot. "I remember her correctly. At just over forty, he is the youngest sixth-level person in the empire."
"It's really scary."
Field nodded heavily: "I remember that Marquis Jiawen's territory is not rich. It is a miracle that the sixth level can appear."
Under Jiawen's tent, there were sixteen or seven outstanding fifth-level divine choices, wearing different family emblems and coming from different big families. They were only temporarily dispatched by the elector.
The five thousand elite heavy cavalry of the left army are all knights, and everyone has fighting spirit. The various family flags and personal flags are like a vast ocean, which is dazzling.
The right army is composed entirely of divinely chosen guards, all fighting knights or magicians.
The coalition of nobles is just like this, colorful. They seem loose, but they are related to each other.
At ten o'clock at noon, the noble coalition troops, under the command of Elector Jiawen, completed their formation. The formation is strict, and the cavalry on both wings is like the talons of an eagle, ready to attack at any time.
Field praised: "It's not the pig-headed governor who is commanding us. As expected, even the momentum is different."
"Xilios, march on! I will conquer the Canghai Province." Jiawen waved his sword domineeringly and roared.
"Yes, Grandpa."
"How many times have I told you, it's just a job outside the home." Jiawen glared at his granddaughter.
"As you wish, Commander."
Xilios nodded slightly and looked up at the sky, his orange eyes reflecting the goddess' mark and the laws of the world. He raised the sacred bow in his hand and shot an arrow into the sky.
"Buzz~"
The sky was instantly dyed into a sea of magnificent red flowers, and countless illusory flowers were composed of divine power and swayed in the wind according to some strange rules. Every rhythm will evolve into a mysterious law inscription.
The divine power compressed to the extreme surged out like a flood, covering everyone around him, even Field, who was wandering on the edge.
