Chapter 58
"Neighbors hoard grain, I hoard guns; does the neighbor become my granary?" This statement itself is indeed unproblematic, but the main issue now is that the neighbor is not only hoarding grain, but they might also have more guns than you, and they are more advanced. So, tell me, who is whose granary?
January, Year 3: The Onik grand military drill. Morgan tells them that Camelot has countless grain and countless wealth; as long as they break Camelot, they can possess everything!
Same month: Camelot grand military parade. The populace cheers for the Camelot army.
June, Year 3: Camelot, under Lin Ye's proposal, implements the Twelve-Rank Military Merit System. Soldiers can become knights through military achievements; morale is as high as a rainbow!
July, Year 3: Morgan promulgates the Twenty-Four Military Peerage System. Not only can soldiers become knights through military achievements, but knights can also become enfeoffed noble lords through military achievements; the momentum is like a rainbow!
"Huh???"
Lin Ye looks at this scene with a head full of question marks. Good grief, Morgan has learned to be clever; she even knows how to follow my lead. Very well, those who imitate me live, those who resemble me die.
Lin Ye has been pursuing centralization, yet Morgan keeps enfeoffing. Admittedly, Morgan's method can allow her to quickly gain powerful strength, but in the long run, it will inevitably lead to a situation where the tail is too big to wag.
In the end, the Great Britain that King Arthur worked so hard to unify will once again become that chaotic zone where various nobles divide and rule.
"Everything, let the facts speak for themselves."
December, Year 3: The final decisive battle begins.
Outside the city of Carlisle, Morgan leads a massive army, charging over in a grand, sweeping manner. Every one of these soldiers looks red-eyed, giving off a fierce and menacing impression.
Outside Carlisle, Artoria is mounted on the back of Dongtalien, holding the Sword of Promised Victory in her hand, with Avalon tucked at her waist, standing opposite Morgan.
"Royal Sister, do not forget your promise."
Listening to Artoria's words, Morgan also nods confidently. "Rest assured, I will not forget. When you lose, don't go crying. But don't worry, once elder sister is crowned king, you can still be elder sister's right-hand woman."
"I return the same words to you, Royal Sister."
After Artoria finishes speaking, the sound of war drums thunders on the walls of Carlisle! Under the war drums, all the soldiers feel an infinite power surging from the depths of their hearts!
Morale! This is a very mysterious thing.
Facing this scene, Morgan is completely indifferent.
"Little sister, let me show you what it means to be the true master of Great Britain!"
The power of Great Britain!
Hum!
Unlike Lin Ye's side, where morale boosts combat effectiveness, Morgan is directly applying the true power of Great Britain to her soldiers!
This brings about a real, tangible increase in combat power!
Facing this scene, our King is completely fearless. She raises the Sword of Promised Victory in her hand high and shouts:
"Knights of the Round Table! Attack!"
"Battle-Axe Knights! Attack!"
Rumble!
The sound of warhorses' hooves rings out continuously; the Onik soldiers charge toward the Knights of the Round Table. However, they have only charged halfway!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground suddenly erupts with intense explosions!
Gunpowder! A Lin Ye original!
The force of the explosions sends warhorses flying. It isn't just the horses hit by the blasts; even those not hit are startled by the sound, scattering and fleeing in all directions, their formation falling into complete chaos!
Many knights even fall from their horses and die directly under the hooves!
"What!!!"
Morgan widens her eyes, looking at the scene before her. She hasn't even reacted to what happened!
"No! There is something underground!"
Morgan waves the magic staff in her hand. Immediately, the power of Great Britain churns, the soil of the battlefield begins to roll, and strange, misshapen things emerge from the ground!
"Damn! There's such a move?"
Lin Ye is stunned for a moment. Should I say it's worthy of the Age of Gods? Although it's just a tail end, these inferior thermal weapons really have no effect.
As for higher-end weapons... Lin Ye would have to know how to make them!
"It doesn't matter; if there are no landmines, aren't there still hand grenades?"
Lin Ye commands again. The soldiers in the front row suddenly pull out explosive packs from their bosoms, light them, and throw them toward the charging Onik soldiers.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Another series of roars, and another group of soldiers falls to the ground!
"What kind of ghost thing is this! There is clearly no magical fluctuation?"
Morgan looks at the explosive packs filling the sky. She waves her staff once more, and then, in front of all the charging soldiers, a massive magic shield appears.
Morgan's thought is very simple: as long as I can get my soldiers to charge together with these soldiers, they won't be able to throw those strange things anymore, right?
After all, those things don't have eyes; if they explode, they'll kill everyone!
Boom! Boom!
The barrier formed by the power of Great Britain is indestructible; even explosives cannot break through it. Facing this scene, Artoria also charges over directly!
"My turn!"
Hum!
Golden light surges from all directions. Boom! The golden light pours directly onto the barrier!
Boom!
In an instant, the barrier formed by the power of Great Britain shatters! At the same time, from the right side of this army, Gawain leads the Knights of the Round Table in a direct charge! The Knights of the Round Table are truly monstrous! In an instant, the right flank of Morgan's army begins to collapse.
"It is time."
Watching this scene, Lin Ye also leaps down from the city wall, riding the Little White Dragon. He circles around to the left flank of the opposing army, and in his hand, a strange red longsword appears!
The longsword begins to rotate continuously; the terrifying magical storm seems to want to swallow the entire city of Carlisle!
Enuma Elish!
Boom!
Under the red storm, the sky seems to collapse, the earth begins to crack, and all of Morgan's soldiers are either dead or injured.
After the red storm passes, the remaining remnants have only one thought left!
"No! It's broken! It's broken!?!"
"Stop charging! Charging again means death!"
"No more fighting! No more fighting! I want to go back! Back to my territory!"
"Why am I risking my life for these people!"
Flee! Flee as fast as you can!
These guys from Camelot! They really aren't human!
Watching this scene, Lin Ye sighs helplessly.
"Sure enough, in the Moon World's wars, one must ultimately rely on the sword in one's hand to speak."
