Chapter 518: Leo's Premonition
State Guesthouse. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
An inexplicable sense of anxiety took over Leo's heart, and even though Bella was right in front of him, Leo didn't have any urge to continue to laugh with his sweetheart, and even seemed a little restless, looking at the door from time to time, anxiously waiting for a response.
Bella saw Leo's concern and comforted, "You don't have to worry so much, things don't have to be as bad as you think." ”
"Is that so?" Leo couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm afraid things will only get worse than I thought." ”
As a pessimist, Leo approaches everything with the idea that the worst can happen.
And most of the time, Leo's idea proved to be quite useful.
Not to mention that this time Leo always had an unprecedented sense of crisis in his heart, as if a giant beast in the darkness was approaching him step by step with its fierce mouth open, but he still didn't know anything about it.
Fortunately, at this time, Daisy finally returned.
The blonde appears in the room, bringing back the news that Leo desperately wants to know.
"My lord, your judgment is likely to be correct, I didn't see Lord Li'an, so I sent the other two letters."
Leo's heart pounded violently at this moment.
Since Duke Leanne is not in the mansion, this can only prove one thing, and that is that the Duke must have begun to implement one of his plans!
Leo had no doubt that once Duke Lean's plan was implemented, the victorious Imperial Marshal would definitely wipe out the entire city of Ridmar in one fell swoop, leaving all enemies completely unable to resist, and could only make a helpless choice between surrender and death.
Moreover, since the Duke did not give any prior notice to Leo's side, it means that the eldest princess's persuasion of Duke Lean has failed.
Therefore, at this moment, Leo, the eldest princess and the Marquis of Habs are also enemies for Duke Lean, and they belong to the nails that need to be pulled out!
Something must be done, or else you will have to sit back and watch the defeat come!
Leo took a deep breath, and his brain kicked off like never before.
Obviously, Duke Leanne wants to crush the enemy in one fell swoop, and it is not above the Electoral, so he obviously has only one means, and that is - army!
Since the Duke did not choose the eldest princess, it means that Emmanuel has become the object of Duke Lean's support.
And Emmanuel is the deputy head of the Scarlet Knights, so the Scarlet Knights are obviously the easiest target to be targeted by Duke Lean, with the wisdom and strategy of this duke, it is very likely that the current Scarlet Knights have fallen into the hands of Duke Lean.
Leo suddenly asked, "How many troops does the Empire have near Ridmar City now?" ”
The one who answered him was Daisy: "There were twenty-five thousand men in the east and west camps, and twenty-five thousand men in the city guards." ”
Leo asked, "Where is Emmanuel's Scarlet Knights stationed?" ”
Daisy was obviously well aware of this, and immediately replied, "The West Battalion, stationed in the East Camp are General Isaac's Silver Wing Knights and an infantry regiment attached to the Silver Wing Knights. ”
"General Isaac? How come I haven't heard of such a person? ”
"General Isaac's elder brother is now the emperor's deputy minister, the number two person in the military - General Herman."
"I see." Leo suddenly realized: "In other words, this Silver Wing Order is actually in the hands of General Herman. ”
Leo no longer hesitated, and quickly wrote several letters, and at the same time issued a series of orders.
"I need two of the best teams to monitor the movements of the two large battalions in the east and west, and if there is any sign of troops in these two large battalions, then I will be rewarded as soon as possible."
"Withdraw all our assassins and killers, and let those who are still in the Grace House come to the State Guesthouse at once to join the main force; Immediately send someone to recall the No. 1 Adjudicator, so that she no longer has to continue to monitor the Prime Minister's Mansion, but immediately go to the eldest princess's side and bring Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to me. ”
"Let our men immediately spread the word in the city, that the Duke of Leanne has mastered the entire Scarlet Knights, and now he has led troops into the city to prepare to bloodied the political enemies in the entire city of Ridmar."
"Also, Sister Daisy, you send them according to the names and addresses on these letters, and by the way, remember to send the one to General Herman first. This time you don't have to see the recipient himself, just let the guards in the mansion find the letters. ”
"After delivering the letter, Sister Daisy, you go and fetch the Marquis Habs, and tie him up if he wants it or not. By the way, he must be kept safe on the road, understand? ”
One order after another came from Leo's mouth, and the small building of the State Guesthouse became lively again, and from time to time a figure could be seen flashing in and out, as if there was a gathering of some cultivators.
When everything was arranged, the room fell silent again, but that didn't reassure Leo.
Although he had used the information available to him to make what he felt was the most accurate judgment and reaction, he would not know whether he was right or wrong until he received feedback and produced results, so he could only sit in his room and wait.
Waiting, especially at a time like this, is always an ordeal, because you can never be sure whether the good news that is coming will make you cool up in the sky or the bad news that will make you fall into the abyss.
What's even more frustrating is that whether it's good news or bad news, you don't know if it's the right or wrong decision until the dust settles down.
Later, Leo even felt that his breath was so hot that he couldn't even sit in his chair peacefully, so he simply stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
At this moment when Leo was anxiously waiting for information, 10,000 Scarlet Knights and 15,000 Scarlet Knights' subordinate infantry had already completed the assembly in the western camp.
Duke Leanne, dressed in full uniform, mounted his horse surrounded by the generals and officers of the Scarlet Knights, glanced at Emmanuel, who had long been unable to contain his excitement, and nodded to the countless expectant glances around him.
"All the troops are attacking!"
The heavy barracks gate slowly opened, the sound of heavy horses' hooves resounded throughout the land, and a group of knights galloped out of the gate in an orderly manner with horses under their crotches, merging into a surging torrent of steel under the light of the blazing torches, all the way to the vast basin to the east.
In the basin, it is the power center of the Spany Empire for 300 years, known as the "first heroic city on the mainland" - Ridmar City.
