The sound of snoring disrupted Darick Danny's thoughts, and he gave up looking at the map and looked at the two front-line commanders who had fallen asleep, and there was a little pity in his eyes.

Wretched?

He suddenly remembered a conversation two hours ago.

"I'm so much more pitiful than them!"

Yes!

I'm so much pitiful than they are!

Derick Danny, who had been proud for most of his life, lowered his proud head and began to admit his defeat! He had already accepted his fate and waited quietly for the end of his life.

But two hours ago, the word from the Kingdom of Crulia suddenly became hot in his already silent heart.

At that moment, Derick Danny completely abandoned his dignity and paid tribute to the young ruler of Crewe in the most humble way possible, and offered his loyalty.

"Dignity... It's a piece of!" Derrick remembered the conversation, and couldn't help but whisper.

"General, what did you just say?" the adjutant next to him subconsciously asked,

"Nothing. ”

"General!" a slightly anxious or nervous shout sounded as Derrick Danny shook his head slightly, making Derrick Danny's heart, which had finally calmed down, beat suddenly.

The voice came out of the mouth of Derick Danny's personal officer, a very young servant, who was at the door of the command post at the moment, and his very pure eyes were exceptionally bright under the light of the fire of the headquarters, and in that bright gaze was all the figure of Derick Danny.

"General—" Hu Cong called out again as he walked into the command post, but this time he suppressed the tension in his heart and subconsciously lowered his voice, because he saw the dissatisfaction and warning in his master's eyes.

"Stampede" but the light footsteps of the young servant still showed his anxious mood, he staggered with the retreating adjutant figure and walked up to Derrick Danny, shouted 'General' again, looked around, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a look of desire to stop talking.

The surrounding staff officers and officers immediately flashed to the other side, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no one around, the young man whispered in Derick Danny's ear: "My lord, Sir Bowenright invites you to the command headquarters on the Western Front. ”

Derick Danny looked at Hu Cong's non-self-defeating appearance, and almost couldn't help but whip him directly in the face. However, when he heard Hu Cong's words, he immediately extinguished his careful thoughts just now, and subconsciously took a step back towards the dark place next to him, and lowered his head very casually and pretended to think.

Under the dim light, Darick Danny's face is a surprise and joy that cannot be concealed.

For a man who has completely lost faith in the future, there is no better news than this.

However, the news reached his ears two hours earlier, and it may only bring him endless fear, but after the conversation two hours ago, he was only excited at the moment!

...

Half past two in the morning,

In the corner of the side of the garrison behind the dark and relatively quiet guard tower, next to the headquarters of the Krulian Kingdom army on the western front of Elok City, Darek Danny saw his uncle, who had been the least favorable.

"Come to me at this time, you must have a particularly troublesome time. The smile on Darick Danny's face looked terrifying in the faint light, and he raised his head slightly to look at the dark night sky as he spoke, and then he looked at Bowenwright and said, "This is really a ghost weather, a ghost weather where you can't find even a trace of moonlight and starlight." ”

"Evil power has put an end to everything. After hearing each other's words, Bowenright and his nephew looked at each other's words, and subconsciously raised their heads to look at the dark night sky, and twitched their noses to sniff the fishy smell in the air, and said, "However, we will soon be able to sweep away the evil energy that obscures the sky and clear the impurities in the air." ”

"I'm convinced of that. Derrick nodded earnestly.

Bowenwright withdrew his gaze and continued to look at Darek Danny, and after a long silence, he walked out of the dark corner, revealing a general's leather armor, opened a letter in his hand and said calmly: "Please come, I want you to see a letter." He didn't want to continue to be polite with a hypocritical mask, and he didn't have time to be polite, so he directly stated the purpose of the trip.

Darick Danny stared at the letter looming in the darkness under the light of the light in the gray environment, suppressed his restless heart and slowly leaned forward, pretending to be very calm to take the translated letter from his uncle's hand, took a deep breath and flicked the letter open with his fingers, lowered his head slightly and read it carefully with the help of the faint firelight.

The contents of the letter were both unexpected by Darick Danny, but at the same time he understood them. As he read deeper, he buried his head lower. After a long while, when he adjusted his thoughts, he immediately raised his head, and put on a very surprised and humble expression.

"I think it's ridiculous to see you now... How proud you used to be. Bowenwright looked at his nephew at this moment and couldn't hold back this sentence in his heart.

"Pride requires capital, no matter how noble the bloodline of the Danny family is, if there is no strength to accompany it, even your groom can scold me at will. Derick Danny didn't change his expression at the moment, "Even the noble Danediv family was not slaughtered to the point that only one baby was left in the end. ”

"Tell me about the letter in your hand..."Bowenwright frowned and decisively ended this not so good topic, pointing to the letter in his nephew's hand and said, "I need someone to help me smooth out the complicated relations within the principality... And the best person I can think of is that if you can help me, I can guarantee your life. ”

"My life?" said Derick Danny, smirking self-deprecatingly, and looking at his uncle, who was a relative stranger to him, "Don't you know that two hours ago, your Majesty sent someone to tell me that he has no interest in my life now!"

"Your Majesty will care about you?" Bowenwright frowned, "I have the impression that His Majesty will not care about the people he is determined to put to death. ”

"Are you surprised?" said Derick Danny as he looked at Bowenlet with a very smirk, "It seems that your Majesty the King doesn't tell you everything... If I were you, I'd send someone to find out what's going on in Crewe City right now, instead of being stupid here waiting for orders. ”

"Your Majesty's thoughts are not for me to speculate. Bowenwright immediately gave up on the question he had just thought about, "You haven't told you the answer yet... Do you want to live on?"

"No one doesn't want to live. Derrick Danny shrugged his shoulders and instantly retracted the cynical smile on his face, and said with a serious expression, "I'm a normal person. ”

"Now, then, may we talk about the letter you have in your hand. ”

"Of course. Derick Danny nodded and raised the letter in his hand, rustling the paper, "I just want to say that this Major General Buck is really bold enough to dare to directly seize control of the Yekjar military port in such a complicated situation as the Iruk Command. ”

Bowenwright may have been surprised by Derrick's topic, or perhaps he was not interested in paying attention to it, and he did not answer in the first place. Derick Danny had to continue: "But he does have the confidence to do it, let's see... Werewolves, elves, and mage towers have all gathered in the Yekjar military harbor, and now even if Covey Rambo and Fiport-Bob get the only thing to do in the port city, they can only pretend that they don't know anything. ”

"Your Majesty has given Major General Barker full authority to deal with the affairs of the military port of Yekjar, and even I can only give him advice, not give him orders directly. Bowenwright said something that was very surprising to lead Derrick, but the old knight ignored Derrick's surprise and waved his hand, "Major General Buck has done everything he has to do, and now it's up to me to make a decision." ”

"The conditions you gave your majesty have already given me in advance... What more can you give?" Derick Danny's eyes lit up like two oil lamps in the gloom, "You're so confident that I'll be on your side?"

"Whatever you want, everything you gave me before, I can give you back. Bowenright was not as aggressive as Derrick, he showed the patience of an old man, and there was no coercion in his words.

"Do you mean everything about the Danny family? Do you think I can accept it all now?" Derick Danny shook his head with a wry smile, "If I accept all this, I'll die on the front lines tomorrow morning, believe it or not?" he smiled, "The reason why Pedy Reagan kept me was definitely to let me do something for him, but he has a lot of options, and I may be the best candidate, but certainly not the only one." ”

"It's rare for you to be so lacking in self-confidence. Bowenlet pressed his hands on the belt around his waist, a slight sneer appeared on his indifferent face, and he raised his hand to point to Derick's nose, "You should not call Your Majesty by name, from now on you will also be a subject of the kingdom." ”

"Yes, sir. Darik Danny's eyes narrowed into slits, and an innocent childlike smile appeared on his face, "Now... You can give me orders, any order!"

"Don't you want to put forward conditions?"

"Do your soldiers and subordinates make conditions for you when they listen to your orders?"

Bowenwright was stunned for a moment, then walked two steps towards Darek Danny's side, and after seriously looking at his nephew, a very innocent smile appeared on his face, "Welcome back, Darik." ”

"Let's talk about the letter. Derick Danny didn't seem to know how to face his uncle's smile like this, so he raised the letter in his hand again and said: "Although I don't have direct evidence, I'm sure that what Belém Val confessed can basically be believed, and I believe that he still has a lot to say, but... He won't say any more. ”

"I'm not interested in the internal struggles of the Principality of Suluk, I just want to know if Fipott-Bob and Cove-Rambo will connect to the Undead Legion..."The smile on Bowenwright's face narrowed in an instant, and the bright eyes between the dense wrinkles stared at Derrick Danny and said seriously: "Remember, you can't presuppose any position in your next words." ”

"I am now the general of the kingdom, and my position is on His Majesty's side. The struggle in Derick Danny's eyes flashed, "I don't think you would mind such a position, right?"

"Put away your little cleverness, Darek, what you need to show now is your wit. ”

"Well," Derrick smiled, "your words remind me of my father, who always said that about me. He smiled self-deprecatingly after saying this, "I never thought I would be so emotional... Lately I've been thinking about something because of some words, something..."

His words stopped abruptly, and then he took two breaths suddenly, "Let's talk about this letter... This letter does not say anything at all, the only thing it can confirm is that Belém Val forged letters and warrants from the military department and His Majesty, although Belém Val mentions that this matter is an order of Fipert Bob, but we have no evidence that these things are directly related to Fipert Bob, in other words, Belém Val's accusation is equivalent to nonsense, but... Belén Val is smart, smarter than I thought he would. ”

"He was really cunning, he put us in a dilemma and also made me lose trust in Fippert-Bob. Bowenright squinted his eyes, crossed his back to meet Darick Denny's, and said as low as his breathing, "What do you think would happen if I arrested Fippold Bob now with this letter?"

He said this with a serious attitude, as if such an order would be given in the next moment.

Darek Danny didn't dare to take Bowenlet's words as a joke, he suppressed his suddenly beating heart, quickly organized the words in his mind, and was silent for a while before he said: "Fipert Bob's influence is top-down in the entire Duchy, and if you arrest him, the whole Duchy will be in turmoil within half a day, because all the high-level government of the Duchy, including Corway-Rambo, will think that you are trying to use the matter of Belen-Val to eradicate the influence of the Duchy's high-level on Elok Territory!"

"What if it is forcibly suppressed?"

"Maybe you can give it a try. Darek Danny blinked to ease the discomfort of his eyelids, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and whispered, "The citizens of Iruk City who are now on guard are basically the staunchest supporters of the Suluk authorities in the last two years of propaganda offensives. ”

"So, what about your advice?" Bowenright frowned.

"Fipert Bob is a complicated man, he didn't have an aristocratic upbringing, his father raised him as a businessman, but—" Derick paused for thought in the middle of his speech, and then continued:

However, he was a man who longed for an aristocratic sense of honor, and when he was young, he longed to be a knight who guarded the country... Later, he began to pursue the honor of nobility until his father was stabbed to death in the street. ”
