/lit/ I need your help

I am looking for an book I read in high school. I can't remember the author or the title. I've tried Google and I can't its so run of the mill that I can't find any references to it. It was a pleb-tier high fantasy novel that contained the following:

>Setting was a large kingdom in decline
>Kingdom is threatened by a old undead emperor
>Undead emperor is shown in a flashback attempting to "sink" the capital city via a powerful wizard
>wizard is offered crown jewels to sink the city, but refuses
>Main character is the son of a local noble
>His home province is ransacked by an undead army led by the undead emperor
>he journeys to capital city to get help
>capital sends a group of soldiers to help (the Black Wyvern Company)
>Soldiers basically ransack the provincial castle, kill the main character's father
>Main character kills the Black Wyvern leader in a struggle
>Main character now known as the "Traitor Duke"
>meets wizard
>wizard offers him a lizard army
>main character gets the "Sun Sword", some ancient magical sword
>gets lizard army
>marches on capital city
>takes over defenses and defeats undead army
>defeats undead emperor in single combat
>wizard confiscates Sun Sword and throws it into some random empty cave or something

I know I'm pretty sketchy on the details, but I can't remember any of the important things that normally help identify books. Anyone know what book I'm referring to?

I'm after it for more nostalgic reasons than any burning desire to read it again. I seem to remember it being part of a trilogy or a series, and I wanted to see if the other parts of the series were any good.

That series keeps coming up in my searches, but I can't find any similarities besides containing the phrase "Sun Sword". None of the entries in Broken Crown match what I remember.

I think I know the book you're talking about. The author's first name was Hugh if I recall correctly. Hugh M... Mu... Mung

I think you're referring to Sir Hugh Mungus
