In its most glorious years, the Asta Empire's army was once divided into the ten largest armies, which once approached a total of five million, each commanded by the empire's ten marshals.
However, as the days of stability gradually increased, , and gradually disbanded many armies.
The original marshals of the empire have also died one after another, leaving only the two oldest marshals, who almost never appear in public view because of their old age.
The ten remaining marshals are those who were canonized later, and they are all capable people in various fields.
"Do you still remember the war between the Asta Empire and the Atulan Empire more than ten years ago?"
Ain suddenly asked.
"Well, my father died in that war."
Another empire located in the southeast of the Asta Empire, named Atulan, has been a hostile country to the Asta Empire for many years.
Wang Chu has heard of this before, almost every time he attended class at Hajar City Academy.
Instructors will emphasize this name many times in order to plant such a thorn in the hearts of young people.
It seems that the Ashtar Empire did not take advantage in that war.
"Not just your father, but countless families were destroyed in that war.
It was a history that we need to remember.
In that war, several marshals were also seriously injured.
Although they still had titles, they were almost I no longer participate in national affairs."
Ain looked at Rias and his eyes became serious.
Wang Chu knew that the next words were what he wanted to say.
"Now there are four armies in total near the Imperial Capital.
The Royal Guard is under the control of Marshal Duke Eragon and is responsible for the security of the palace.
The other is the official military force, which is under the control of Marshal Mansoor.
The two of them control the largest military force in the Imperial Capital.
Regarding military power, it is worth mentioning that both marshals were born as dragon knights," Ain said.
Duke of Eragon Wang Chu thought of the dragon knight he saw in the palace the day before yesterday.
It turned out that he was also a man with heavy troops.
"Then there are two more armies."
The other party only said there were four, and so far he had only mentioned two.
"The other two are in the hands of the King of the Rhine.
What I know is that one team is temporarily led by the king's personal guard, Marshal Nat, and the other team should be led by the king himself."
There is no mention of the first two in the words.
So sure.
In other words, he was not sure.
It was certainly important for the king to have heavy troops in his own hands, but judging from the other party's tone, these troops were still hidden.
"Are they not in the military headquarters anymore?"
Rias seemed to have the same doubt as herself.
Ain shook his head.
"No, I have seen their names and affiliations, but I have never found them in the army."
"How could this happen?"
Rias asked curiously.
Is it necessary to hide people?
This is the imperial capital, perhaps the safest land under the king's feet, and they actually disperse the troops and hide them.
Wang Chu wondered what the other party's purpose was.
"This is exactly what I want to say now.
Maybe I can't say it if I leave this area."
He pointed to the place in front.
Going out from the front was the streets of the Imperial Capital, which was the direction he followed Rias yesterday. .

Rias nodded and didn't ask any more questions, just listened quietly.
"The reason may also start with the war with the Atulan Empire.
Originally we were in sight of victory, but Atulan incited some local armed forces to rebel, which led to subsequent defeats."
"I know about this.
Grandpa told me about it."
Rias replied.
Well, when did you say it?
I don’t know why.
Wang Chu looked at Rias over the other person’s shoulder.
She rarely lied, but she would never lie at a time like this.
"It was this incident that planted the seeds of trouble in the heart of the King of Rhine.
The king was only in his twenties that year, just when he had just ascended the throne, and the Atulan Empire also took this opportunity to launch a war.
The young king In any case, he never imagined that the people who accepted his favor would unite to subvert him for a little benefit.
From then on, the King of the Rhine was wary of all the city princes.
However, if this confrontation lasted for a long time, it would evolve into something else.
A contradiction."
Ain suddenly looked at Rias with an indescribable look.
Wang Chu suddenly instinctively felt a chill running down his spine, which was a sign that animals were sensitive to danger.
He was testing Rias' thoughts.
Logically speaking, Rias was also from Hajar City, so he was testing her side.
"What happened after that, Uncle Ain?"
He still looked like a curious baby.
For a moment, Wang Chu couldn't tell whether Rias did this on purpose or if she originally wanted to ask this question.
Seeing that Ain's eyes softened, he put down his guard just now.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
If a fight broke out at this time, he didn't know how to fight.
Maybe there would be a chance for the Werewolf King to attack directly.
So far, I have never fought against someone who can already use Qi Jin.
This level should have reached the corresponding level above the Great Sword Master and above the Great Mage.
Of course, this was just a test.
Wang Chu believed that he would not take action right now.
If Rias had answered wrongly or hesitated just now, it would have just added one more political enemy.
After listening to Ain's words, Wang Chu finally understood Edmund's previous worries, as well as the imperial capital's attitude towards Hajar City for more than a year.
Even though it was discovered that the imperial general had been killed, no other troops were sent to help.
Ever since he saw the Dragon Knight, Wang Chu no longer believed that the little bit of wind and snow could stop Yalong from flying.
The Western Desert is the closest to Hajar City.
The imperial capital just wants Hajar City to do it on its own, and in order to win the hearts and minds of the people, they have to do this.
Wang Chu is now very lucky to be in that team, otherwise he would not be able to see through this country at all.
's true face.
Eventually they won the hearts and minds of the people and eventually they lost their fangs.
According to the next development, perhaps what Hajar City will face is internal fighting with the generals of the Imperial City.
Ain was silent for a while and didn't speak.
Seeing that he was about to leave the noble area, he finally couldn't help but speak.
"Child, you are still young and have to go through a lot of things.
You will gradually understand how difficult it is to maintain the balance of a huge country.

However, it is also very difficult for an individual to choose a suitable camp."
He said this.
Very sincere, maybe it was the advice of an elder with the same surname.
Or maybe it's a way to win over people who want to promote before suppressing.
In short, Wang Chu is wary of people in the imperial capital today.
"Remember, if a child believes it, he is stupid."
He praised the horse at his feet for running slightly ahead of Rias.
Yes, it would be foolish to believe it.
I have to return these words to you.
Winter is coming
