Chapter 40: Post-War Verdicts
Princess Jessica's face turned grim and she said with a serious face: "Count Rose, how can you treat war as a business? I have to tell you that as a nobleman of the Ryan Kingdom and the leader of a legion, it is your duty to kill enemies for the country. ”
Fuck your obligation, Lao Tzu is here to wipe your ass, okay, the four legions let the two legions of the orcs fight like a dog, are you embarrassed to say?
Derek did a little calculation when he bombed just now, the number of people is too small, obviously not right, at most it is the appearance of two legions, I really don't know how to fight, so I am embarrassed to call myself the main legion? I feel that the dragon tooth legion rebuilt by Princess Wei'er is not so inferior.
"Oh, yes?" Derek began to quibble in his usual grinning tone: "However, just now I didn't come to talk to Merlin as a corps leader, but as a mercenary group leader, yes, that's right, there is another identity, that is, the head of the mercenary group's 'independent regiment', so may I ask Her Royal Highness the princess, is there a problem with me talking to Merlin as a mercenary?"
"No problem, but I have to remind you that according to the laws of the Lane Kingdom, the Legion Commander must keep the troops together all the time during his tenure, Count Rose, what about your Legion? Believe it or not, I can arrest you for the crime of desertion!" Hearing Derek's quibble, Princess Jessica's silver teeth were secretly bitten, and she was angry, how could there be such a dead person asking for money.
"Arrest me, I'm so scared~," Derek made a small scared look, causing the knights in the magic costume to laugh in the sky, and his young master began to play treasure again.
"The Dragon's Tooth Legion is led by my deputy commander, Her Royal Highness Princess Wei'er, and as for your accusations, I invoke Article 11 of the Special Regulations in Wartime, which states that when other troops are attacked, the Legion Commander may choose to lead a small number of troops to support. Do you have any questions, Your Highness Princess?"
"No!" Princess Jessica stomped her foot angrily, then turned to leave.
"Her Royal Highness...... Princess," called Captain Merlin.
"Captain Merlin, if you make a mercenary agreement with the mercenary group, then act according to the agreement!" Princess Jessica suddenly had a flash of inspiration, a hint of smugness appeared on her face, and she turned back: "So Mr. Derek, do you have a mercenary combat agreement?"
"Why didn't you?!! What Captain Merlin said just now!" As soon as Derek heard that the other party wanted to play tricks, he immediately jumped up, swept through the crowd, and pulled a familiar soldier's face casually: "I remember you, you were there just now, come, you come to tell Her Royal Highness the princess what Captain Merlin said just now?"
"I'm ......" The soldier looked innocently at his knight commander, was glared at by the latter, and instantly understood: "Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, I didn't say anything just now, it was Count Rose who took the initiative to help, and there was no mention of money at all~"
"You!" Derek was speechless, pointing at the soldier who had just finished his manipulation.
Princess Jessica proudly raised her proud chin and pronounced the verdict: "Okay, Princess Ben, as the temporary judge, is now pronouncing the verdict, and the Earl of Rose, who claims to have made a verbal agreement with the head of Merlin, has been ruled invalid because he has not been able to produce strong evidence. Count Rose, will you obey the verdict?"
"I*(¥#" Derek had just spoken half of the Zuan dialect, and the radio in the helmet suddenly sounded, and under the cover of the huge helmet, no one saw a strange smile on Derek's face, and said in a weird manner:
"Obey, of course I obey, Princess Jessica is wise and martial, a little self-respecting, may I take my troops to rest, I just traveled a long way to support, and after the battle just now, I am already exhausted. ”
"Go ahead. "Princess Jessica thought that Count Rose would entangle him a little more, and even decided in her heart to give him some monetary compensation, such as a thousand gold coins?
After all, no matter what the reason, this long-distance journey is worth treating, but when the words came to his mouth, he was swallowed again, probably because the other party reached out and asked for money was too annoying, right?
However, as soon as Derek's side left, two flies on his hind feet came up again.
"Your Royal Highness, it was so dangerous just now! You don't know how worried I am about you, and the thought that you may be injured makes my heart break~" said Luther Vichy, the treasurer, who was shivering among the guards.
"Hmph~ You know that you are hiding under a woman's skirt, can't you be like me, bravely fighting with the orcs! Even if you are injured, what can you do? Fighting for Princess Jessica is worth it even if you die in battle!"
When he got off the horse, he tripped and fell, and he broke his scalp and fainted until now, and the chief of the military department, Gongzi, said unashamedly.
Princess Jessica, who was surrounded by two humanoid flies, began to have a big head again, and she actually remembered Derek's appearance in her mind, although his mouth was a little cheaper, and he asked for money, but at least it wasn't so annoying, like a man, after all, the performance of these two straw bales just now fell into her eyes, compared to them, Derek is pretty good, right?
......
Just as Princess Jessica was buzzed by the flies and was about to attack, a handsome horse galloped over, and it was the probe horse who had just been scattered.
Seeing that he was about to rush to him, the speed of the horse did not decrease, and the soldier on horseback rolled directly from the galloping horse.
"Report to the commander! Outside the forest ahead, a large number of orc troops have been gathered! Visually inspect no less than ten legions! What should we do now?!"
"What did you say? Did you see clearly!?" Princess Jessica was instantly shocked, and the other two flies also opened their mouths in surprise, but they couldn't make a sound, didn't the orc troops just be beaten away?
"See clearly, please give the princess an order. The soldier knelt on one knee and clasped his hands into fists.
Princess Jessica whispered to the two flies beside her, who had just been chattering incessantly, as if they could kill the Kipchak Khan of the orcs with a knife, but now they were shrinking their necks like castrated roosters, and shouted: "What? Didn't you just say it? Why are they all dumb now, come on, don't you want to please me? Go, if any of you kill the beasts in front of you, how about I marry whom?"
And the two flies still only lowered their heads, as if they had never heard of it, who would not want to marry a princess? His Majesty the King has no children under his knees, and in the future, the chair that symbolizes the supreme will have a chance to sit, but he must also live to that time.
At this time, a voice came.
"Yes A, I can't afford it~"
