vs 12 A brief lull

Yes, Your Majesty has already made an attitude. ”

A hint of mockery flashed across Zerodin-Marne's aged face, "But... Do you know your majesty's true attitude?"

"What do you want to say?" asked Quinna in a low voice, "I'm not your minister, and there is no one else here, so if you want to say anything to me, you can just say it." ”

"I'm just afraid you won't understand..."

"I'm not a child!"

"Well..."The old lord deliberately dragged out his tone very long, stared at the eldest daughter for several seconds, and asked, "Have you seen anyone you compromise with since His Majesty took charge of the Cruli Domain?"

Without waiting for his daughter to answer, the old man smiled quietly and continued, "The white bones on that old mulberry tree outside Crewe speak for themselves. He took two puffs of his cigarette gently, the familiar comfort in his lungs slowly relieved his tired feeling, "Your Majesty's choice of Baron Aemond as the supreme officer of the Harrence Territory is very revealing, the hidden secret guards of the Castle of Caval have been preparing to move in the last few days, the Chief of the Police Don Wright seems to have been transferred back to Crewe City, but more agents of the Police Department are secretly stationed in the Harrence Territory. ”

Kunna looked at her father's appearance and subconsciously asked, "You seem to be afraid?"

"Because I don't know what His Majesty wants to do, I can't understand him. The old lord did not answer the question directly, "I know one thing, and I know it very clearly, and that is... Now within the entire Kingdom of Kruria, there is no one who can challenge the kingship of His Majesty the King... Before, the kingdom had four major dominions, but now we are only Covind, and now we are like the ancient tree at the top of the Wellman Mountains, and one can see it clearly as soon as one looks up. ”

"Now that you know this, why did you authorize them to do things they shouldn't have done, to think about things they shouldn't have thought about?" Quinna's expression slowly became serious, and her tone was much more indifferent.

"No one can refuse royal power, and I want to give it a try. ”

"Is there a result now?"

"It was a good experience, and it wasn't without our chances. Zerodin Marne looked at Benedict, "Don't you want to see your child reign over the entire continent of Alan?"

"It's enough for me to see you like this, and I don't want him to be you. Quinna shook her head.

"But there are things you can't control, can they?"

"I can do that!" Quinna said in an affirmative tone.

The old man was stunned by his daughter's affirmative words, he looked at the other party's cheek seriously, and then chuckled, "You can do what you want, if you insist." ”

Kunna nodded and asked, "So, are you going to agree to Your Majesty's request?"

"Do we have the right to refuse?"

...

Fifty miles north of the Grises, there was a grassland crossroads, and in the middle of the intersection was a market town that had developed because of commercial trade, and before the undead army ravaged the Eluk Territory, the caravans from the south to the north of the market town could fill the camps outside the town.

Most of the bustling city is now in ruins, and the surviving townsfolk have either taken refuge in the military port of Yekjar or fled to the eastern part of Iruk's territory ruled by the Kingdom of Kruria.

The remnants of the town have now become a coalition garrison, and the navy and heavy cavalry corps withdrawn from the 'Adiri Line', the werewolf corps supported by the Misha Kingdom, and the magic warriors of a legion of the Mage Tower are all concentrated here.

In the original square of the town, hundreds of military laborers were in ruins. After a morning, the huge plaza was cleared, and the half-standing marble administrative building was once again visible.

The laborers and soldiers who accompanied the army looked at the outline of the town that was gradually becoming clear, and they all sighed at the original wealth of the town. And the commanders of this army have no time to care about the former prosperity of this town, they are troubled by the situation of the Elok Leader in front of them, which seems to be obscured by the fog.

On the flank of the garrison, in a wide undulating area, a team of men and horses were galloping wildly.

Buck found himself slowly beginning to enjoy the feeling of riding a horse, as the wind from the galloping horses always reminded him of life on the sea.

Especially after the 'Adiri Line' tried to fail, he was almost obsessed with such feelings.

On a high ground with the best view, Buckla stopped galloping with the reins of his horse, and the group that followed him also stopped in the nearby area, and quickly hit his horse and approached.

"General Barker, our warriors are here to fight, not to enjoy the scenery. Henmeth, the commander of the Werewolf Legion, rode a two-legged velociraptor and looked around at the withered yellow earth, "Besides, the scenery here is not very good. ”

"The bloody battle of the 'Adiri Line' before was a good battlefield, but it's a pity that you didn't catch up. Ernest couldn't help but sarcastically say, "I really like to see the bravery of your werewolf warriors!" he said with a clear smile on the corner of his mouth, and bit the word 'heroic' very hard.

"Human, there is a price to be paid for satirizing a true warrior. Henmez's dark eyes turned into a line, and the moment his sharp teeth opened, the killing intent on his body poured out.

"I'm just telling the truth. Ernest was not afraid at all, and as he spoke, he put his hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, making it look like he could draw the knife at any moment.

"If this is in the kingdom of Misha, I must throw you into the gladiatorial arena and use a real battle to make you understand the bravery of a werewolf warrior. ”

"It's a pity that this is not the Kingdom of Misha. ”

"You..."

"Enough is enough, Henmez, you have lost the faces of your ancestors. Nemero scolded softly, "Have you forgotten all about the civilization that took you two hundred years to learn?"

Henmeth heard Nemero's scolding, the blood in his eyes flashed, and he explained with a pout, "It was the Yekjel military port that cut off our logistical supplies, and I can't let our people go hungry to fight for you. ”

"This is our common war, Lord Henmez. Elven General Nemero said in a serious tone, "Don't use your battles to describe this battle... No living person is immune to the erosion of evil powers. ”

Henmax raised his eyebrows slightly, and a pair of terrifying wolf eyes slowly returned to their original appearance, and the killing intent emanating from his body disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Buck ignored their dispute, he controlled his horse to the highest part of the high ground and looked at the vast land in the distance, stared at the endless sky for a long time, and then turned his head to a middle-aged general in leather armor next to him and asked, "Count Anse, when will the follow-up reinforcements from the Mage Tower arrive?" ”

Anse Zora, after fighting the orcs in the Harrens Heights after the fall of the Clan, left everything behind to join his eldest son in the Mage Tower after the Highland War under the command of Pedi.

This time, he represents the Mage Tower, joining the Allies as the Supreme Commander of the Mage Tower Dispatch Army. As for the two councillors at the Yekjar military port, it was impossible for them to enter the barracks and accept the leadership of Buck until the Kingdom of Kruria had not relinquished command.

"Don't call me Count, I've long since abandoned the Imperial title. Ans-Zora emphasized very seriously, and then said: "Our follow-up army will arrive with the two corps behind you. ”

"That is, ten days later?"

"Yes!"

"But I have a feeling that the decisive battle in Iruk City could break out at any moment. Buck stared into Anse Zora's eyes, "You should tell your council everything about this." ”

"The Council knows better than anyone the current state of the Battle of Elok Territory. Werewolf Commander Henmeth pursed his lips and looked to the other side, "But they still choose to stand by and watch. ”

"The Mage Tower doesn't have a lot of power in the main battlefield, and I'm bringing a full army of magical warriors with me now, so... The Mage Tower did not choose to sit idly by. Anse Zora responded to the werewolf commander's questions in a calm but unmistakable tone.

"What does Sir Bowenright think now?, is he really going to use Elok City as bait?" Ernest continued on the subject, "but we've been told that our main forces are already fighting the undead outside the 'Death Fortress'... If I were the commander of the face team, I would definitely find a way to bite the main force of the coalition army, and then send the heavy troops assembled by the Northern Silver Forest to raid Iruk City. ”

"I'm sure Sir Bowenright would have understood it, and he must have had some other idea," Nemero pointed to the large camp at the foot of the high slope, "aren't we gathering here now?

"It's nice to look at the scenery here. Buck chuckled.

"Not bad... Looking at such a desolate land will help you understand who your real enemies are. Nemero followed indifferently.

The elven general's digression made everyone present a little embarrassed except for himself.

"According to the scout's reportβ€”" Ans-Zola's deep voice relieved the crowd from their embarrassment, and he pointed to the northwest and said:

"I believe there are more than 100,000 undead legions assembled near the Northern Silver Forest, but this legion has been quiet so far, and it has been excessively quiet, they have neither sent a heavy force to encircle us, nor have they marched north to attack Elok City... Bowenwright may want to use El Luk as a bait to lure the main force of the Undead into the Southern Plains, but it is also possible that the Undead Legion is using the 'Death Fortress' as a bait to lure our main force out of El Ruk City. ”

"It was clear that both sides threw the bait at the same time. Anse Zorla analyzed in a low voice: "Bowenwright's plan is good, but our opponent is not stupid... Sir Bowenright had bitten the bait, but our opponent had not moved, and it was clear that he would not be so easily fooled, that is... The current chaos in Iruk City was not enough for him to make up his mind to enter the Southern Plains. ”

"You mean there's going to be more chaos in Elok City next?" Ernest said in a low voice, as if talking to himself.

Anse Zora did not answer the question, but continued the conversation he had just said, "Sir Bowenright is now not only trying to fool the undead army, but also himself and everyone in Elok City, and only when we ourselves think that Elok City is about to end, will our enemies be fooled. ”

"But what if the city of Elok really falls?" it was evident that General Nemero didn't like the plan very much.

"Even if the city of Elok does fall, I believe that with the wisdom of Sir Bowenwright, he must have thought of a way to deal with it. Anse Zora didn't ignore the elven general's question, or rather question.

"A crazy plan, but now it's up to our enemies to choose. Buck smiled brightly, his eyes motionless in the direction of Elok City to the north.

"It seemsβ€”" Ernest was about to say something, but when he saw the rider coming from the camp on horseback, he pointed to the rider and said, "There must be some news coming." ”

"Hope is good news. Wren, who always likes to be silent, subconsciously said a word.

The crowd was not far from the camp, and while they were talking, the rider stopped beside him, and quickly turned over and dismounted, and ran to Buck with a letter wrapped in iron bark, "My lord, it's a secret report from the Military Intelligence Service, from Iruk City. ”

"MIU?" Buck didn't like dealing with MI people.

Ernest turned over and dismounted, took the secret report from the rider's hand, and handed it to Buck as fast as he could. At this moment, the eyes of everyone present fell on this secret report, and they all maintained their due silence.

"Click" Buck unwrapped the iron bark envelope.

As soon as the envelope was opened, the commander of the Werewolf Legion, Henmeth, couldn't help but ask, "What's the news? When can we go north and stab the Immortal Legion in the ass?"

Buck ignored the werewolf's urging and opened the letter at his own pace...

"How's it going?" asked even Ernest this time.

The report was written very shortly, and after reading it, Buck met everyone's eyes and said, "I don't know if it's good news or bad news... An hour ago, a large-scale clash broke out in Iruk City as left-behind residents and returning citizens fought for the only jobs in the city, and before the news was sent, many people had already begun to storm the city's administrative offices and parliament building!"

"If that's Sir Bowenwright's plan, then that's good news. The indifference in Anse Zora's language made everyone look sideways, and he watched Buck hand over the information to Nemero and said, "But if it's not planned, it's hard to say..."

"Why did MI tell us this?" Buck asked the question that was on his mind, and his question stunned everyone present.

At this time, the barracks was galloping towards everyone's location on a fast horse...
