Chapter 230 Heading To The Imperial Capital, The Church Of War Joins The War
The decision of Emperor Kukarn caused a huge uproar within the Kukarn Empire.
After all, this was the first time since the establishment of the Kukarn Empire that the emperor personally took to the battlefield.
This action undoubtedly indicated that the Kukarn Empire had truly reached a life-or-death crisis.
Upon receiving this news, the nobles who received the mandatory conscription order felt less resentment in their hearts.
If the supreme emperor himself was going to the battlefield, what reason did they have to refuse?
Therefore, all the nobles set off and gathered in the imperial capital as quickly as possible.
Inside the Habs Manor,
"That Emperor Kukarn is truly despicable!"
"He blamed you for the previous defeat in the war, and now he wants to conscript you to the battlefield..."
Janice and the others said angrily.
In their opinion, Rennes should not go this time.
Otherwise, it might end up like last time, where they worked hard in the war but received no rewards and ended up taking the blame.
"I will definitely go."
Rennes did not act impulsively.
He was well aware that unless he and the Habs family no longer wanted to have a place in the Kukarn Empire, he absolutely could not openly defy the emperor's order.
The current Emperor Kukarn was like a ferocious beast forced to the edge of a cliff.
The level of danger was off the charts.
Anyone who dared to go against him would undoubtedly face the emperor's thunderous strike.
Although the military strength of the Kukarn Empire had greatly weakened,
the Kukarn royal family, with a heritage of nearly ten thousand years, still held many powerful forces and hidden cards.
Not long ago.
The powerful knight order that suddenly appeared and reversed the situation on the border battlefield is the clear evidence.
Moreover, let's take a step back.
Even though he is confident in his own strength and unafraid of the threat of the hidden cards of the Kukarn Empire.
But he still has a big family to take care of.
Rennes himself may be able to withstand the Emperor of the Kukarn Empire's assassination head-on.
But the Habsburg family will definitely suffer heavy casualties.
Of course.
He still has another option.
Take his wife and children and escape directly on a star whale.
Run away to a place far from the Kukarn Empire and start anew.
However.
Unless absolutely necessary.
He will definitely not choose this path.
The losses would be too great.
Without a prosperous and vast territory to support them.
The development speed of the Habsburg family will sharply decline.
There may even soon be a situation where they have nothing left to eat and insufficient resources for cultivation.
"Darling, you must be careful!"
Understanding her husband's considerations, Jenny and the others no longer persuade Rennes, but instead express their worries with concerned faces.
They understand very well.
Everything he does is for the family.
"Don't worry!"
"I'll be fine!"
"You take care of the family, and I'll be back."
Rennes says with a smile.
With his strength.
Unless he deliberately seeks death, it is almost impossible for anyone to harm him.
After all.
If he can't win, can't he just run away?
Taking care of family affairs.
Under the worried gaze of his wives.
Rennes leads thirty thousand Habsburg family knights towards the imperial capital.
The reason for bringing such a large family army is also because of the Emperor of Kukarn's order.
According to the conscription order.
Apart from the imperial nobility, who require support on the front lines, each noble family is required to contribute a certain number of troops to replenish the frontline personnel, based on the size of their title.
The higher the title, the more troops are required.
Rennes was demoted recently, but Emperor Ku Kaen restored it later.
As an imperial grand duke.
Rennes naturally requires a considerable number of troops.
Thirty thousand mid-level knights are the minimum deployment standard for a duke.
However.
For the Habsburg family, this is already quite a lot.
Compared to other ducal families.
The Habsburg family rose too late.
They lack a solid foundation.
Up to this day, the Habsburg family's knight order has only a little over sixty thousand people.
It can be said that this wave of war conscription directly depleted half of the Habsburg family's knight order.
If they were completely wiped out on the battlefield.
The Habsburg family's knight order would definitely suffer a major blow.
Due to the urgent military situation,
In order to quickly gather all the troops, the emperor spared no expense and used billions of magic crystals from the national treasury reserves.
Opening the large military teleportation gates sealed in various provinces of the empire.
After arriving at the Governor's Mansion in the Province of Lancelot,
Governor Losca led Rennes and others to the front of the teleportation gate.
It was a gigantic space gate, fifty meters long and six hundred meters wide.
Overall, it appeared in a deep blue color.
Emitting an extremely intense magical aura.
It was obvious.
This was an extremely powerful magical creation.
Without wasting any time,
Under Rennes' command,
The Habsburg family knights lined up and entered this gigantic teleportation gate.
Soon,
The figures of Rennes and his group disappeared into this teleportation gate.
The world spun, space shifted.
In the blink of an eye.
Rennes and the others arrived at the barracks in the imperial capital, Zidela City.
After going through identity checks.
Led by a respectful legion commander.
Rennes and the others arrived at a new independent barracks.
This would be their temporary residence.
0
In fact.
Rennes's status was high enough to receive such treatment.
During this time.
There were a terrifying number of nobles and noble armies gathering in the empire.
In this situation.
The availability of independent barracks for residence was naturally scarce.
Ordinary nobles could only have their family soldiers set up camp on open ground.
They might even have to resort to seizing land due to the lack of nearby open spaces.
Rennes had the Habus family knights settle in the barracks for rest and recovery.
Rennes turned around and went to find other familiar nobles to exchange information.
This war was of great importance.
He needed more information to avoid making mistakes in judgment.
After a conversation.
Rennes gained quite a bit.
For example.
Emperor Kukaen promised to establish the War Church as the state religion and successfully obtained the full support of the War Church;
The four empires each dispatched a high-ranking demigod to enhance the strength of the allied forces...
"Next, it will be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers!"
Rennes judged in his heart based on this information.
The War Church should not be underestimated.
Although they suffered losses in the Orc War, the War Church's strength remained very powerful, with many experts.
With this strong support, the Kukaen Empire's strength greatly increased.
And the determination of the four empires to divide the Kukaen Empire was very resolute.
They jointly sent four high-ranking demigods and millions of Qi warriors.
Both sides were in a deadlock.
They had put all their chips on the table.
It could be foreseen.
How intense this war would be.
...to be continued...
