In the Hilton family mansion, according to Anthony's request, only an ordinary table of wine and food was placed, and in addition to Anthony, the guest, there were only three people sitting around, including the patriarch of Silvio, the former patriarch of Andres, and Anthony's old acquaintance Owen.

It happens to be a representative of the three generations of old, middle and young people.

With Anthony's current status, even the senior and core members of the family are not qualified to accompany him. Although the boy didn't mind this, the patriarch of Silvio was a human being, and he always had to be careful and proper in all aspects, and he couldn't ignore it.

When Anthony first debuted, he used to serve as an enshriner in the Hilton family. Since I arrived in Edinburgh, I also stopped by to visit my old club. Of course, let's talk about things by the way.

"General, I toast you."

Silvio stood up, raised his glass, and didn't wait for Anthony to answer.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Silvio couldn't help but be greatly moved.

When he first met Anthony, the patriarch knew that he was not a thing in the pool, and that he would soar to the sky sooner or later, and never thought that he would stay in the small pond of the Hilton family all the time.

But in any case, I could not have guessed that Anthony's rise was so violent. In just over a year, he has become a general above 10,000 people under one person in the empire. The achievements he has made, or the miracles he has created, are countless, and have long become the best talking point for people in the streets and alleys.

The three words "Anthony" represent victory and miracle. Not only is it known to everyone in the glorious empire, but even in the entire continent of Oss, it has begun to become famous.

"The patriarch is polite, I, Anthony, can have today, and the help of the Hilton family is indispensable, I should give the patriarch a cup."

Anthony also stood up, picked up his glass and drank it down.

Owen and the other three people saw it, and they were all grateful.

Anthony said politely, in fact, everyone knows that even when he was serving as an offering, it was Anthony who helped the Hilton family far more than the family gave back to him.

The young man's words are enough to show that he is nostalgic and does not forget his roots. After a round of toasting, the strangeness and barrier brought by time and status are gradually dissolving.

The former patriarch of Andres said, "Little one, I'm not surprised that you can step into the ranks of the top masters of the fourth realm. But in addition to martial arts cultivation, you are actually so good at leading troops to fight, which is really amazing! ”

After three rounds of drinking, the two sides became acquainted again. Anthony was gentle and close, and always told them not to be restrained, so that they could treat him the same way as he had been. The former patriarch was originally a temper that was not afraid of heaven and earth, and he was no longer polite at the moment, and he was once again commensurate with the little guy.

Anthony really didn't think it was wrong, and said with a smile: "It's over, I'm just lucky." ”

Owen also interjected: "The general is too modest, although I have never led an army, but I also know that marching and fighting involves a wide range of battles, and the slightest carelessness in all aspects may lead to a great defeat." Besides, once is a fluke, and twice is also a fluke, but the general has repeatedly created miracles, how can it be all luck. ”

After a period of experience, Owen's personality has also calmed down a lot, and he is not like Andres, who is neither big nor small, and calls indiscriminately.

"Okay, I'm just going to be polite and modest, it's all right!" Anthony touched his nose and said with a wry smile.

"Then again, in the time since I left, the Hilton family has grown very fast. Now in any province or county of the glorious empire, who does not know the name of a patriotic merchant? ”

Anthony smiled and turned to look at Owen.

"And the name of the young owner is even louder, I don't know how many young girls in the flower season have secretly promised that they have been put on the young owner."

Owen blushed in embarrassment and hurriedly raised his glass to hide his embarrassment.

Patriarch Silvio said to Anthony with gratitude: "This is all the guidance and support of the great general. ”

"Okay, okay!"

Anthony couldn't resist his enthusiasm a little, saying that he didn't come here to thank him for the gratitude of the Hilton family.

"Let's get down to business."

The three members of the Hilton family all sat up straight and waited for the next step. Even the former patriarch of Andres had a serious face and a good attitude.

Anthony is now in a high position and has a busy schedule, so that's not just talking. The war outside Huaishui Pass is in full swing, if he came to the Ann Hilton family just to catch up, no one will believe it.

Anthony glanced at the three of them and only asked.

"I don't know, the Hilton family is interested in going abroad?"

"Abroad?" Puzzled, Silvio asked, "Which country?" ”

Anthony had a smile on his face, but there was a faint chill in his eyes.

"Of course it's the Riga Empire."

The three generations of the Hilton family looked at each other and looked at each other.

If they're not mistaken, the Empire of Glory and the Empire of Riga are now in full swing. Anthony even wiped out the 20,000-mile army with his own hands, and incidentally added Frankie and Schindler, two important generals of the Riga Empire.

In this case, Anthony actually said that he was going to do business in the Riga Empire? The meaning of these words is very intriguing!

Anthony looked at the expressions of the three people, and just waved his hand slightly.

"Of course, I'm not talking about now. If the Hilton family is interested, they should start preparing for it as soon as possible. ”

Speaking of this, the young man suddenly straightened his face and said in a deep voice.

"But no matter what the Hilton family chooses, I just hope you don't spread out today's words."

Feeling the endless power that Anthony inadvertently exuded, the three of them all nodded heavily in their hearts.

……

After a day's rest, the army continued on its way.

Huaishui Pass is located on the east side of Edinburgh City, which is not too far away. After a period of intensified marching, when the sun was in the west, the last military force led by the Imperial General finally reached the forefront of the resistance against foreign invasion and joined the army here victoriously.

On the west side of Huaishui Pass, soldiers with bright armor lined up in two columns, standing on both sides of the official road, concentrating solemnly.

At the front of the queue were the high-ranking generals of the army guarding the pass. Standing in the middle like a moon of stars is the controller of the province of Edinburgh, the supreme commander of Huaishui Pass, Grand Duke Mattesias.

It was just a little over a year since he saw him, and Anthony felt as if the Grand Duke was ten years old. But the only thing that has not changed is the Duke's enthusiasm and childlike simplicity and straightforwardness.

"My general, the old man has waited for you!" Grand Duke Mattosias opened his arms and gave Anthony a big hug without saying a word.

"Boy, this is a good opportunity to show that you and I have a good relationship. Give some face, so many people are watching. ”

Listening to the Grand Duke's whisper, Anthony couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and also reached out to hold the Grand Duke Mattesias and patted him on the back twice.

Anthony is not used to such an enthusiastic and outward expression, but he does not resist it either. It is said that although the two of them have not met a few times, they both appreciate each other very much, and they really feel a little forgetful. Antony persuaded King Beckenbauer to give up his forbearance and fight against the Riga Empire with all his might, which was an important factor in the full support of the Grand Duke.

Otherwise, with Anthony's reputation at that time, which onion did His Majesty dump him?

The two smiled and parted, and the Marquis Marco on one side rushed out and shouted loudly.

"General, you're finally here, now let's see how long Dino can jump outside the gate. You've already slaughtered one of the famous Riga generals, and I'm sure there will be a second one soon. ”

As soon as the words fell, Anthony keenly noticed that the faces of some generals in the army opposite changed slightly, and then returned to normal.

If he didn't admit his mistake, he hadn't seen these generals before, and they weren't the commanders of the troops who had arranged for him to come over to reinforce Huaishui Pass in advance.

That is the original officer of Huaishui Pass, the subordinate of Grand Duke Mattesias?

Thinking of the Grand Duke's whisper just now, Anthony understood a little in his heart.

"Since the general led the army, although he did win a few battles, it was also the result of the soldiers' courage to fight for the first place, plus a little luck. Where are the generals like the Duke and Huaishui Pass have been in battle for a long time, have rich experience, and are as solid as a rock in defense, and they are not leaky. This is a real skill, a real kung fu, and it can't tolerate a little bit of water. If we want to defeat the Riga army outside the border, we still need all of us to unite and cooperate sincerely, and this is by no means a single general can make a contribution. But the Marquis's words were inappropriate. ”

As soon as Anthony said this, coupled with his status and status, the generals in Huaishui Pass all looked a little soothed and smiled.

Grand Duke Mattosias saw it in his eyes and nodded secretly in approval.

This kid is really smart, and he is still the same as when he used to quarrel with himself. Just by relying on his own hint and the slight change in the expressions of the generals under his command, he guessed what the problem was, and in a few words, he dissolved the impact of Marco Marco's unintentional words into nothing.

Marquis Marco is also old and sophisticated, and he still doesn't understand that he has inadvertently promoted Anthony, but he is a demeaning officer of the Huaishui family.

"Yes, yes, yes! The general was right, it was up to everyone to unite in order to drive away the vicious jackals outside. ”

After a small interlude, the Grand Duke took Anthony by the hand and walked side by side into the most important defensive fortress of the glorious empire.

Behind them, the high-ranking generals followed closely and rushed in.

As for the army brought by Anthony, it was naturally led by local officers and went to the camp tents that had already been arranged, and there was no need for the generals to worry about it.

I don't know if the Riga army knew that Anthony was coming with a large army, and it was very interesting that they did not attack.

Grand Duke Mattesias took Anthony and the two of them to the command center of Huaishui Pass. As soon as everyone was seated, a general came out and explained the details of the current battle situation to Anthony and the others.

Anthony listened quietly to the general's story, his brow furrowing slowly.
