It never occurred to me that the Krewe would also unite with their enemies, these people are a disgrace to the Krewe... They are a bunch of mean, filthy, shameless, unworthy of being called 'human' two-legged animals, and 'they' have a good home in a barn!" said this through gritted teeth, and the anger and murderous intent that seemed to tear everything apart made Lundin-Reagan unconsciously withdraw his fire-burning hand.

"I will stand firmly by your side. Lundin-Reagan now has nothing to say except to express his position, "In my eyes, only you can lead the Kingdom of Kruria to rule the continent of Alan, and only you are willing to do so, and everyone else only thinks of their own interests." ”

"Don't bring me this high hat, my crown doesn't need such praise now. Pedi deliberately showed a hint of disgust as a warning, "I need real support to clear the shame of our Crewes." ”

"Even if the sky collapses, I will remain loyal to you, my majesty. Lundin-Reagan stood up and expressed his loyalty with a chivalric salute.

"Well—" Pedi accepted his knightly salute and smiled noncommittally.

"Do you remember a story that has been passed down in our family?" Pedy waved his hand to get his uncle to sit down again, "More than two hundred years ago, when Grand Duke Vernal had just conquered Crewe, the Reagan family was too poor to even afford a noble robe... The Grand Duke of Vernal and his vassals had to enter the city of Suk in leather armor to receive the emperor's canonization. ”

"At that time... The nobles of the imperial capital called Archduke Vernal 'Duke of Mercenary' because Archduke Vernal looked like a mercenary at that time. "Lundin-Reagan took the king's story," Fournal, who had been humiliated in the imperial capital, issued a proclamation to his descendants to make the nobles of Suk bow to the Kru. ”

"Not only do I want the nobles of Suker to bow down to me, but I also want them to respectfully address me as 'Your Majesty!'" Pedi leaned back in his chair as if he was joking, but neither he nor Lundin-Reagan laughed.

"I'm waiting for your order, Your Majesty!" Lundin-Reagan instinctively imagined himself riding a war horse galloping down the central streets of Suke City, and the blood of the soldiers involuntarily boiled.

"But right now, there are people within us who are thwarting our great cause, preventing the Reagan family from coming to Sukh City, so... What we're going to do now is... Get rid of these people first. Pedi then shifted the conversation from external wars to the internal struggles of the kingdom.

Unsurprising, Lundin-Reagan repeated what he had just said, "I await your orders, Your Majesty. ”

"Look at this intelligence. Pei Di took off his gloves and took out one of the stacks of documents that had been prepared beside him, "Information from the royal capital... After we left, the city of Crewe was not only not peaceful, but even more lively. ”

"Even Sir Zerodin-Marne, who is led by Covinde, is not willing to be lonely, and the man who is about to enter the earth even runs to Crewe City to join in the fun. Pedi picked up the cigar he had put down, took two puffs, got up and walked to the barrel in the corner, picked up the tall glass and filled it for himself.

"I'd love to have a welcome party for them in Fort Kaval!" Petdy seemed thirsty, he drank a whole glass of ale in one gulp, then took two more glasses of wine and walked up to Londin-Reagan, "The nobles are dissatisfied with my reforms and want to reopen the council of nobles, and the time is tomorrow, you say... Does this have anything to do with the assassination just now?"

"Your Majesty, all this information is—" Lundin-Reagan wanted to inquire about the authenticity of the information, but as soon as he said it, he felt stupid, so he immediately changed his words: "When did this information come from?" He searched the document for any institutions that might indicate the source of the information, but to his disappointment, the document did not indicate its source.

"Before dark, this information was sent to my desk through the police department's insider, and then my queen brought me information through the castle guards to prepare me for a possible assassination. Pei Di gently stirred the charcoal in the brazier, "The traitors in the royal capital are trying to find a way to seize power, what do you think I should do?"

"Who needs to be arrested, who needs to be executed?" said Rendin-Reagan in simple terms.

Pedi shook his head as if refusing to answer the question, staring at the bubbles in his glass and whispering, "Some people want their lives, then I will grant theirs... For the next seventy-two hours, this barracks is up to you, and if you don't announce my news, I won't appear in front of the soldiers. ”

Lundin Reagan immediately understood the king's intentions, but he did not immediately take the order, he thought carefully for more than ten seconds and said: "Your Majesty, we are at war with the undead legions, and if there is some kind of chaos in the camp, it will cause unimaginable and disastrous consequences for our war. ”

"Those rebels in the royal capital can be slaughtered with just one order from you, and I also believe that the police department has already had evidence of their treason, so why bother... Why do you want to be so troublesome?" Lundin Reagan was cautious in his words, and his tone was even more tactful.

"In the near future... I will enter the city of Sukh and lead the entire human world. Pedi described the ongoing war of unification as an established fact, "I am no longer a country nobleman in Crewe, so... My killing needs a good reason, and that reason must be seen not only by us, but by all the people of the Kingdom. ”

"What's more, if I don't finish my play, how can those mice in the shadows go to the light?" Pei Di leaned back in his chair, "If you're worried about the Undead Legion... Well, you can take a look at the letter. As he spoke, he took out a letter that he had with him, a letter written on fine parchment.

Lundin Reagan was visibly stunned when he saw the style of the letter, for few people in the kingdom now wrote on such formal parchment.

As soon as he opened the letter, Lundine Reagan subconsciously looked at the place where the letter was registered. His tense face could no longer hold back, and he showed an exaggerated expression of surprise, and suddenly looked up at the king, who was gulping his drink.

The letter was signed with the words... Your most humble servant: Muvet-Felle.

"Your Majesty, this—" Rendin-Reagan resisted the urge to read the contents of the letter, and he was in a dilemma when he reclosed it.

"If I let you see it, you can watch it with confidence. ”

Lundin-Reagan looked at the king's unquestioning expression, secretly bitter, and after a long silence, he had to take a deep breath and open the parchment roll that seemed to weigh a thousand pounds in his hand.

For the next few minutes, there was a very silent silence in the tent. Pedi quietly looked at the old orc's body and drank his wine, while Lundin-Reagan carefully read the letter written by Muvet Feller.

"Your Majesty...," the exuberant flames in the pot fire reflected Lendin Reagan's slightly shocked facial expression, "Are you going to accept Muvet Feller's surrender? He's the Undead Monarch, if this matter is known to the elves..."

"Then don't let them know. "Pedi behaved casually.

"I don't really understand. "Lundin-Reagan didn't dare to be clever in this matter, but he couldn't help but express his opinion, "I've carefully read all the information about the Undead Legion, and with the current state of Muvet-Feller, even if we destroy it, he can be resurrected through a sacrificial ritual, I really don't understand... Why should he surrender to us. ”

"It's like some of the nobles in Crewe who can grovel to the people of Suke Plain, but are unwilling to be loyal to me. Pedi shrugged, "Intelligent life is complex. ”

"But what if it's a trap for Muvet-Füller?"

"So... We'll have to see his sincerity first, and you'll need to find a way to let the other side know what's going on on our side, and I'd like to see how the undead monarch reacts. Pedi pointed to the letter in Lundin Reagan's hand, "Don't be idle for the next three days, I need a detailed plan for attacking the fortress, a battle plan that will not allow our allies to see our cooperation with Muvet-Filer, and at the same time be careful to fall into the trap of the other side." ”

As he spoke, Pedi stretched out his hand and motioned for his uncle to return the letter in his hand, and Lundin-Reagan returned the letter as he said, "Your Majesty, it is a very dangerous thing to walk with death, are you sure you want to do it?"

"Then I will use a large and solid fishing net and put him in the net so that he will not be able to escape. "Also, I don't want to waste too much time in this hellish place, because the internal contradictions and the forces opposing me on the Sukh Plains are compressing the time of our war with Muvet-Fil. ”

"Your Majesty, war requires patience, and I and other generals, as well as ministers of the kingdom, can wait... And we all believe that you can bring us a more brilliant victory, than—" said Lundin-Reagan, as the king watched, "instead of winning by such deceit." ”

"I didn't use deception, this is the most conventional war, we are on both sides of the war with Muvet-Filer, and now that Muvet-Fyler wants to surrender, I just agree to his request to surrender. Pedi was losing patience, and he repeated: "This is the most conventional war." ”

"But we are ordered beings, and Muvet-Phil is the scatterer of death, and there is only one path between the living and the dead. Lundin Reagan has his own insistence as a soldier, and his tone is full of military agitation, "The Kru people are not afraid of war, let alone the living dead in the fortress, and we can defeat the undead army in the fortress with dignity." ”

"My dear uncle, this is my decision. Although Pedi's language was cordial, his tone was full of indifference, "I need to carry out the war to unify the Suk Plain as soon as possible, and I need to show the nobles of the country that everything they fantasize about is simply not possible." ”

"These brutes, how dare they cooperate with the undead legion to murder their king!" Pedi slammed his fists on the table, "I will let them know how ridiculous their thoughts are, I will send all their dependence to hell, and my royal banner is destined to spread throughout the continent of Alan." ”

"So, you have to follow the example of those nobles... Working with the Undead Legion?" Rendin Reagan had an extraordinary persistence in this matter.

"There is no cooperation between me and Muvet Phil, he surrenders to me, and I promise to bless his soul until he leaves the continent of Alan. Pedy Reagan said very seriously, "My dear uncle, you should look a little further... The crux of our war is the war with the Souk Plain... I believe that at this point, we maintain the same idea... When we enter the Suke Plain, all the forces of the Alan Continent will gather under my royal banner!"

"At that time, even the Ferrora of Cullen will tremble under my royal flag, let alone Muvet Phil. Pedi looked at his uncle and re-emphasized, "This is my decision, my dear uncle, and I hope you will stop challenging my patience." ”

The king's blunt warning made it impossible for Lundin-Reagan to continue his persuasion, and now he did not have the courage to challenge the majesty of the crown.

"Everything... will be resolved in the next three days. Pedi stood up and walked over to his uncle and raised his glass, "Don't think so much, victory will be ours, even if there are some accidents, it will only be accidents, because... The kingdom now has the strength to claim this victory. ”

Lundin-Reagan did not speak again, he raised his glass and took a few sips as the king drank bitterly. He was tempted to remind the king that he should reject Muvet-Felleh in sharp language, as he had done not so long ago, but he remained silent until he left.

After Lundin-Reagan left the tent, Pedi did not see anyone again, and the king's bodyguards and attendants surrounded the entire tent.

Time passed slowly in the cold wind howling at the top of the tent.

Dawn soon dawned on the dark horizon, and the commander of the orc brigade, Wolf Ma, received the king's order early in the morning, and at dawn, he appeared outside the king's tent wearing a neat suit of kingdom officer's standard armor.

But what awaited Wolf Ma was not the new order he had dreamed of, but a bad news that he had never expected.

"Your father was a true warrior, the bravest hero of the kingdom, and his deeds will be compiled into the most legendary stories of the kingdom to be passed down forever, and your father's heroic figure will be featured on all theater stages. Pedi assured in the affirmative.

After a long silence, Wolf Ma asked, "What did Father say at the end?"

"He said... The future belongs to the Kingdom of Kruria. ”
