Chapter 253: The Battle of the Covenant

When Anthony finally finished reading the letter in his hand, he saw him casually placing the letter paper on the table in front of him, and he was silent.

General Muller on the side couldn't bear it, and took his eyes to look at the letter paper on the table, but after all, it was not good to take it and look at it directly, so he just asked in a low voice: "General, what is the thing sent by the people here?" ”

Anthony seemed to come back to his senses, and replied lightly: "It's a war letter, a war letter given to me by General Banks of the Riga Empire." ”

After speaking, he picked up the letter on the table and handed it to General Mueller.

General Mueller reached out and took it, opened it and looked at it. While watching, he asked, "Is that the Banksy who is the number one among the six famous players in Riga?" ”

He was relaxed and spoke in a casual tone, without much respect for Banksy, who had been famous for a long time.

If it had changed before, the three words Banksy would have been absolutely thunderous to Mueller. Knowing that I had to fight him, either excited, or afraid, Mueller's reaction would never have been as calm as it is now.

But now, that's it.

Count carefully, in recent times, the Brilliant Empire has dealt with, or defeated many Riga Empire generals, including Frankie, Dino and Kevin.

If you see a lot of things, you won't be surprised or rare.

Although Banks is the first of the six famous generals in Riga, he has been famous for a long time, and he should be more powerful than Frankie and the other three. But Mueller followed Anthony and saw Anthony's methods, and he really didn't think Banksy could win him.

General Müller said this as a matter of course, and did not think there was anything wrong with it. But his casual tone angered the envoys of the Riga Empire who came to deliver the war letter.

"General Banks is the ** god of my Riga Emperor, no one in the entire Oss continent knows about it, and who dares to be disrespectful! When the old general led the army to fight and hunted for feats, you still don't know where to play with mud and sand in open crotch pants. How dare you talk about the old General Banksy in such a tone, hum! ”

The messenger had a goatee and vaguely resembled the messenger who had proposed peace talks at Huaishuiguan. Of course, it's not the same person. On the night of the man's departure, Anthony launched a lightning attack on the camp, and even the commander, General Dino, had to flee alone, and the goatee did not know which soldier had his head cut off. Naturally, no one reported such a trivial matter to Anthony.

I don't know if it's because of a coincidence, or if it's a set of standards for employing people in the Riga Empire, the envoys have to have goatees.

General Müller was impulsive by nature, and if someone had been so sneering at him, he would have already confronted him or swung his fist at him. But this time, when the messenger said it, he didn't react at the first time.

What did you just say?

Anthony's eyes swept coldly towards the goatee, sending a chill down the heart of the already angry messenger.

"Although the two countries are at war and do not come to war, if you are not willing to keep your own points and make a lot of nonsense, it will not hurt me to cut off your ears and nose."

His eyes scanned back and forth over the goatee's head and face, as if looking for a suitable place to take the knife.

"Whether the old general Banks is a famous general of your Riga Empire or a god of war, that's your own business. We are soldiers of the glorious Empire, and there is no need or reason to worship him as a god. Not to mention, the relationship between you and me is now hostile. What you sent was a war letter, and according to the old general's meaning, our two sides were going to divide the victory and defeat on the battlefield, and even life and death. ”

The goatee's blood froze, and reason returned to his head, and he couldn't help but shiver.

He had almost forgotten that the glorious empire of today was no longer the weak and bully country it had been. He also looked at the Brilliant Emperor ** team with old eyes, and almost didn't put all the parts on his face into it.

Frightened by Anthony, Goatee didn't dare to say anything more.

Anthony didn't wait for General Mueller to read the letter, waved his hand lightly, and said, "Okay, you go back and reply to Old General Banks, his proposal is good, I accept it." Let's end the war between our two countries with a large-scale battle! ”

The goatee bowed and saluted, then turned to leave. For the sake of his nose and ears, he no longer dares to have any superfluous words and actions.

After reading the war book, General Müller looked up and saw that the messenger had gone away, and he couldn't help muttering, "Go slower, see that I don't beat you hard." ”

Anthony ignored his complaints, only gently patted the soft leaf that was pulling his arm tight, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Princess Arlina beside him was delicate and weak, but she couldn't hide the deep sadness on her face.

In this regard, Anthony could only smile helplessly in his heart.

It cannot be denied that although he was interrupted by Yalina's shouting at the critical moment of crossing the ninth thunderstorm, he did not succeed in crossing the tribulation and ascension in the end. But Anthony's state of mind is very different from before. The feeling of "heaven and earth are unkind and all things are dogs" will suddenly appear from time to time and disturb his state of mind.

Sometimes, he really felt that he had become cold and unforgiving, and he had become less concerned about what was going on around him. Even the level cities that led the army to attack the Riga Empire were like children's games, and they didn't arouse much interest.

If it weren't for Arlena, and according to Anthony's current nature, maybe he would have left alone and found a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live in seclusion.

Princess Arina put all her heart on her beloved, and naturally she could feel the change in Anthony. The heart palpitations and pain that he experienced not long ago and almost lost Anthony forever, and any change in his movement would make the girl's heart even more uneasy.

Marquis Marco also approached and asked hesitantly, "General, will there be any fraud in this?" ”

The Marquis is not a soldier and does not have much experience in the military, so this question is purely a reminder.

Anthony was helpless about Yalina's worries, but he couldn't explain them to her, so Marco asked, but changed the subject.

"It's okay, the army is numbering tens of thousands, and it is boundless. Now the two countries are fighting with a national army, and the number of people has reached 200,000. With such a scale, the battlefield alone stretches for dozens of miles, how can it be deceitful? Even if there is a bit of an ambush trap, it is a small fight and cannot affect the overall situation. In such a big war, intrigue is not justified. If you want to win, you still rely on strength, real absolute strength! ”

Anthony's tone was indifferent, without the air of a king or anything.

But in the flat tone, everyone could hear the confidence of the young general in victory. It's as if an adult is playing a child's game, and before it officially starts, you can already see the final result.
