Chapter 560: Defusing the Turmoil?
Leo stood behind Duke Leanne and watched it all with interest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
General Bryan and Duke Lean glared at each other, and their men drew their swords one after another to confront each other, and if they disagreed, they would immediately start fighting.
This made Leo's heart stir a crooked thought: "Tut-tut, if I knew that this Duke's control over the Scarlet Knights was so weak, then what am I doing here?" As long as we let our people stand still and wait for them to fight in one fell swoop, these guys will definitely be defeated! ”
Thinking about it, Leo's eyes suddenly became playful.
It was at this time that Daisy, who was beside Leo, suddenly quietly glanced at Leo, and made two movements with her right hand extremely covertly.
The meaning of these two actions is very simple, representing two numbers, "one" and "two", respectively.
Leo perked up, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even richer.
Duke Lean looked at General Bryan not far in front of him, and the cold meaning in his tone was clear when he heard it: "Brian, do you want to disobey?" ”
The Duke's murderous intent has reached its peak at this moment, as the contemporary military god of the Spane Empire, the Duke who has never been defeated in hundreds of battles, large and small, has really never encountered a subordinate like Brian who repeatedly confronts his commander face to face and disobeys orders.
This wind must not last!
Like General Brian, Duke Lean would never allow himself to lose face by one subordinate in front of so many people.
General Brian snorted coldly and didn't speak, but he didn't mean to back down.
General Bryan also knew very well in his heart that the killing intent in Duke Lean's eyes was not a lie, not to mention that disobeying orders in the army was a super crime, if he openly admitted that he no longer obeyed Duke Lean's orders, the Duke would definitely use this as an excuse to draw his sword and kill himself, and then logically take over the command of the entire Scarlet Knights.
Of course, General Bryan would not be stupid enough to give up his life and the command of the troops, but this general has also made up his mind, as long as you don't send troops, I will spend it with you here! Anyway, the longer it drags on, the more prestige your Duke Li'an will lose because he can't suppress his subordinates!
So there was a stalemate between the two of them.
Leo frowned, and couldn't help but secretly cry out in his heart that it would be a pity, if the two of them fought directly.
But Leo thought about it - no, since they didn't fight, I could have fanned the flames and let them fight themselves!
Leo rolled his eyes, and was about to open his mouth with a cough, but was preempted by another person.
If Leo's purpose was to keep the world in turmoil, then this man wanted Duke Lean and General Brian to be in harmony more than anyone else.
This person, of course, is the Grand Prince Emmanuel.
For Emmanuel at this moment, whether it is his own uncle, Duke Lean, or General Brian, who has a heavy army, they are all his good helpers, and his throne is all on these two people.
At this moment, the external enemy has not been eliminated, but these two helpers have preemptively started infighting, how can this be done?
So Emmanuel had to come forward, and he had to resolve this dispute.
"Everyone!" Emmanuel came alone between the two sides, and deliberately raised his tone so that everyone could notice his presence: "Marshal Leanne, General Brian, the current situation of the great enemy is urgent, and I hope that the two of you will put aside your prejudices and cooperate sincerely." ”
At the moment when Emmanuel appeared, Leo's heart tightened, knowing that his plan to sow discord had failed before it could be implemented.
The reason is also very simple, Emmanuel is the only person who can resolve this tense situation at this moment, whether it is Duke Lean or General Brian, these two people support Emmanuel to ascend the throne at this moment, who dares not to sell the face of the future emperor?
"Wait!" Leo's heart suddenly moved, his eyes were firmly fixed on Emmanuel, who was still persuading both sides, and an extremely bold plan quietly came to his mind.
While everyone's eyes were on Emmanuel, Leo whispered a few words to Daisy beside him.
Daisy was obviously taken aback by Leo's plan, and looked at Leo with incredible eyes, even after receiving Leo's affirmative reply with his eyes, she was still a little unconvinced, and said softly, "Of course you can, but sir- do you really want to do this?" ”
Leo smiled confidently: "Then do it, wait for my signal." After saying that, he turned his gaze back to Emmanuel.
It must be said that if anyone thinks that Emmanuel is just a vain and brave prince, then this view is absolutely wrong.
Although Emanuel is known to be a hot-tempered and short-sighted fellow, the Grand Prince has his own merits, which are bravery, decisiveness, and a great pleasing ability.
And his way of pleasing people is not like those guys who are very good at reading words and things and then beating around the bush, but belongs to the type of straight to the point.
For example, now, the eldest prince walked directly in front of General Brian, first stretched out his hand and patted the dust on the armor on General Brian's body when he fell off the horse just now, and then held General Brian's hand, looked at the general's eyes and said very sincerely:
"Your Excellency, I know that you have always been loyal to your father and our royal family, and now is an eventful time, and the empire needs a loyal general like the general more than ever! I hope that the General will not focus on these misunderstandings, but will cooperate with Marshal Lean to achieve great things. I, Emmanuel, hereby promise that as long as I ascend the throne as emperor, I will never forget the merits of General Brian and the soldiers of the Scarlet Knights! ”
General Brian was immediately moved.
Think about it, for a guy with "swear to the emperor to the death" engraved in his head, now the future emperor is standing in front of him, holding his hand, and personally promising in front of everyone that he will definitely entrust himself with important tasks.
It's all here, what more could you ask for?
Even with the armor on his body, General Bryan still gave a heavy military salute to Emmanuel: "The last general will bow down for His Highness, and then die!" ”
After saying this, General Bryan glanced at Duke Lean who was not far away, and deliberately raised his tone: "The last general assures His Highness that in this battle, the soldiers of my Scarlet Knights will definitely defeat the enemy army under the command of the Marshal and help His Highness successfully ascend the throne!" ”
The meaning of this sentence is obvious, since His Royal Highness the Great Prince has said so, I will give His Royal Highness the Great Prince a face, this time I will still listen to the command of your Duke Li'an, and I will take my troops to resolutely carry out the order as much as you like.
As soon as General Bryan said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Regardless of whether the future is won or lost, at least the situation of discord between the generals will not occur for the time being.
At this moment, General Bryan suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Leo and said, "But I still have a question, why did this person from the church who supports Her Royal Highness the eldest princess come to meet with the marshal?" ”
