Tighten your fists for the sake of punching. The gathering of troops and materials is to prepare for the dispatch of troops.

Longwang City, the border town of the Dragon Kingdom, is the last fortress connecting the Dragon Kingdom to the Peacock Kingdom. From here, cross the far-reaching savannah to reach the border of the Mauryan Nation.

Now the city is already overcrowded. A month ago, a large number of merchants and the people of the Celestial Dragon Kingdom who had previously lived in the Peacock Country had been driven here. Although many people have left here and returned to their hometowns in the Tenryu Kingdom, there are still many passers-by who are stranded here. Most of them don't look very good, they are in rags, and many of them are begging to get by.

Within a month, the army of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom also arrived here one after another, in order to maintain local order, the army began to collect those wandering Heavenly Dragon people, and at the same time strictly investigated, to prevent the spies of the Peacock Kingdom from mixing in it and spying on intelligence.

In just one month, four or five cases of enemy spies have been solved. Henry also attached great importance to these cases, personally interrogated them, and executed several so-called spies of the enemy country in front of the people.

Although he didn't get any valuable information from the mouths of those spies, the atmosphere in the entire Longwang City was already breathless. Everywhere there is military control, and everywhere you can see patrolling soldiers. Civilian rations are also limited by the army, with each person receiving only the minimum subsistence allowance per day.

At this time, Henry had already handed over the jurisdiction of the ordinary army to Sofya as the banner, but fortunately, this guy was more strict in governing the army, although there were more soldiers in the city now, but after dealing with some criminal soldiers, everyone was very disciplined and no longer harassed civilians.

The small city, after the initial chaos, has now returned to order.

And Henry can now say that he is not in a bad mood at all.

In the most luxurious mansion in Longwang City, at this moment, the five dragon knights were sitting together for a round table meeting.

"Henry, we don't mean to criticize you, but the situation is the way it is, and you must also take some responsibility. A dragon knight in yellow armor, who looked older than Henry, said very calmly.

"I feel that we need to change the focus of our next work, and put the military mission of the Peacock Nation on the back burner, and find Abel and Red as the top priority at the moment. A beautiful dragon knight in pink armor next to him looked worried, and took over the yellow dragon knight's words.

"I believe that Abel and Red are not so weak and cannot be eliminated so easily by their opponents. Henry still insisted on his point of view, suppressing the anger in his heart, and pressing his tongue hard when he spoke, and his voice did not respond loudly.

"The dragon patterns of the two of them are gone, which means that they are no longer in this world. Or maybe they're isolated in some kind of enchantment by a powerful enemy, but either way, the two of them must be in danger, or the two of them won't have their dragon tattoos disappearing from my dragon scepter. A white-haired old man said in a loud voice with a giant scepter in his hand.

"I understand your thoughts, you treat each of our dragon knights as your own children, but please also start from the overall situation, and don't ruin the overall plan of our Celestial Dragon Kingdom because of Abel and Red. "In the face of this dragon knight leader, Henry really wishes that this old guy would retire early. But it's a pity that the old guy's strength is too strong, although his status is as high as Henry's, he can't shake the old man in the slightest.

"Henry, you have your plan, I have my principles. My rule is that as long as they are part of the Dragon Knights, I will take them home. The old man paused and said very sadly, "If they have already died in battle, don't you plan to take them home?"

Listening to the old man's words, Henry's heart was very confused. But he knew that if the people of the Dragon Knights were scattered to find Abel and Red at this time, it would inevitably disperse the forces of the Dragon Knights, and it would probably be a fatal blow to the entire plan to enter the Peacock Kingdom.

"Commander, did you ever think that we might have a big rout?" said Henry, pulling his face down, and said with great seriousness.

"Old man, I haven't been defeated since I became a dragon knight. The white-haired old man was not modest at all, and replied very proudly.

"It is because of this that you cannot leave our camp. With you, we can at least guarantee that there will be no major rout. But if you get out of here, it's hard to say whether it's going to be a big rout. Henry said with a sly smile.

"Then I'll go with Bruce to find Abel and Red. The beautiful dragon knight in pink armor looked at the dragon knight in blue armor next to him, who had not spoken.

"Bruce, are you going to go with Britney to Abel and them?" Henry turned his face to the Blue Armored Dragon Knight.

"I feel like we all need to calm down first. The dragon knight in blue armor tried to ease the atmosphere among the crowd, and after saying this, he paused slightly and continued, "I feel that Henry's idea is good. We're not the time to go to Abel and Red yet. On the one hand, the regimental commander can't leave here, and on the other hand, if the enemy can trap Abel and Red, then the rest of us will probably have no return. ”

The words of the Blue Armor Dragon Knight summed up the current situation very well.

The beautiful dragon knight on the side suddenly became irritable. "Captain, I really can't rest assured that Abel and Red, if I can't do it, let me go by myself! I feel very uncomfortable when I can't see them. ”

"Britney, don't be in a hurry. I think about it, and I feel like none of you can go, only me. The old man said, smiling sly, too. "As long as we do a good job of secrecy and don't let the enemy know that I'm not in the city, then we are still invincible. ”

When Henry heard the old man's words, he felt that his head was getting bigger.

"Captain, do you know where to look for Abel and Red?" asked Henry, trying to salvage the situation.

"According to my feelings, they should have gone to the interior of the Peacock Country, and I have a dragon pattern scepter, so I should be able to find them. The old man was also very honest and said his own method.

Henry let out a long sigh. He took out his sword and placed it on the table.

"Commander, if you go, we can't guarantee that the opponent will not know that you are not here. It is very likely that the entire Celestial Dragon Kingdom will be in a dangerous situation because of this decision of yours. My saber is here, you can go if you want, kill me, and you can go. ”

The atmosphere was a little awkward in an instant, and the old man looked at Henry's expression carefully, feeling that Henry really didn't seem to be joking, and he suddenly laughed.

"Henry, you are truly the son of the old duke. It's very kingly, and it's a good thing to say. If someone else stops the old man like this, the old man may kill that person and go about his own business. But you can't, after all, you are the future heir of the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, and the country is indispensable to you. And I really can't fight with a junior of yours, but if you don't let me go, the old man won't be able to go, this can't be done. The old man has decided to set off tomorrow. is not engaged in latent warfare, but from the right road, into the peacock country in one go. The old man will fight wherever he wants to find Abel and Red, and I believe that the enemy will not be able to do anything to the old man. ”

As soon as Henry heard the head of the regiment, he knew that he was angry with himself now, and that he had already made a big concession. If you say no to it yourself, then it's really hard to clean up the situation, so hurry up and take over the conversation.

"Commander, although we are not fully prepared now, the situation may have reached the point where we have to take action immediately. In a moment I will give the order to prepare the army and march with you tomorrow. Then I will share with you the information on the enemy's side, which will also facilitate the advance of our army tomorrow. ”

Saying that, Henry took out a bunch of documents, cleared his throat, and began to say: "Recently, a lot of changes have taken place in the interior of the Peacock Country. One of the things, as you know, is that the two dragon knights we sent in have lost contact with us, and the two of them are probably isolated somewhere by the enemy......"

Hearing this, the people around him showed different expressions, and Henry noticed the change in everyone's expressions and began to change the topic.

"Of course, we all know this very well, so I won't say more. It is important for us to note that the people we sent to Charlie to spy on their royal intelligence have completely lost contact with us. We have reason to believe that our intelligence network around Charlie has been destroyed by the enemy. So now the situation with the new king is a complete black box for us. Then I'll tell you about the situation on the side of Walker, our nearest enemy. Some time ago, I don't know what the hell Walker did, and our intelligence network couldn't send news for a while. Recently, we have received a message from our people that they have risked their lives to send a puppet from a royal family to the back of nowhere, and he has raised the banner of opposing Charlie. Of course, Charlie's side was not idle, and sent Bill and Tiger to surround and suppress Walker. Dramatically, however, the army that Bill had initially sent out to encircle Walker was inexplicably wiped out by an unknown force. The situation on Prince Tiger's side is a bit odd. At first, this guy did march under the banner of destroying Walker, but just recently, he suddenly announced that he was going to ally with Walker, together against King Charlie. Therefore, the change in the enemy's sphere of influence now requires careful consideration. ”

After a slight pause, Henry continued: "I feel like we need to rethink the issue of partners, and now we need to consider whether we need to work with the new King Charlie. ”
