This banquet was a small-scale Christmas Eve party, and the number of participants was no more than ten people in total, all of whom were familiar with Eugen.

In the midst of wartime, it was not appropriate to hold a large banquet, so Maria and her sisters presided over such a small gathering.

When Eugen arrived at the banquet venue, Alan and Parma had already arrived, and they were standing at the door of the banquet hall saying this.

Behind Parma stood a clever young man, who looked about the same age as Parma, in his early twenties, and the relationship between the two was not as stiff as that of a normal master and servant.

Behind Alan stood a man too, the third woman tonight after Margaret and Maria, dressed gracefully and luxuriously, with a look between a girl and a mature noblewoman, with an indescribable charm in her gestures.

Allen's right hand was gently placed on the young woman's waist, with a warm smile on her face, and the young woman was also very close to Allen, and the two of them had a great relationship at first glance.

Simon had already arrived, he was the first to arrive, but he didn't take part in the conversation of the people at the door, just sitting alone in the banquet hall with a bottle of Château Latour wine beside him, and a goblet drinking alone.

This descendant of the declining aristocracy was very silent most of the time, standing quietly by the side like an old oak tree, looking a little stupid, but also a little wise and foolish.

Perhaps because of his age, he rarely participated in Eugen's conversations, and he did not marry a wife himself, so he always seemed a little out of place at banquets.

When Maria invited him, she thought about it for a while, Simon was eligible to participate in terms of identity, but Maria always felt that inviting him to participate would make the atmosphere a little gloomy.

In the end, Margaret made a decision and personally made the invitation, after all, this banquet is not all fun, and some war and other matters will also be discussed during the banquet, Simon, as the commander of the strongest legion in Lebor City, will definitely be invited.

A few people chatting at the door noticed Eugen's arrival and walked up to greet them.

Allen walked at the front, and said with a smile halfway through: "Haha, Lord Eugen, this victory is really amazing, it can be written in the annals of history and regarded as a classic example. ”

"Oh, hey, it's too good, it's too good, it's just a small victory, and the battle isn't over yet." Eugen smiled a little embarrassedly, the victory during the day today was really a fluke, and Eugen was embarrassed to boast.

Hearing Eugen's words, Allen's face was a little strange, he looked back at Parma, and then turned around and asked suspiciously, "What?" Eugen, don't you know anything about the Tariq army? ”

"Huh?" Eugen looked at Alan with a confused expression, and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?" I slept all day, and just woke up to see what had happened to Tariq's army. ”

"Oh, no wonder." Alan answered, and he didn't sell it, so he said directly: "Haha, that's right, after the big battle during the day, those Saxon soldiers retreated about ten kilometers backwards and stopped at the outermost outerpart of Lebor City, according to our spies, now that army has become a mess, there is no commander, and a group of captains are making a lot of noise in the barracks, just like a wave of bandits." ”

Parma, who was beside Allen, continued: "Based on this situation, we speculate that it is impossible for the Tariq army to attack us again in the short term, and in that sense, it should be prepared to besiege the city for a long time, and they will not make further moves until the new commander arrives." ”

Hearing this, Eugen also had a smile on his face, what Lebor City lacked most at the moment was time, and it was indeed great news for them that the opponent stopped attacking.

Just talking about this topic, Eugen thought of the betrayal Corleone, and he asked himself if he had treated Corleone badly, but he really couldn't figure out why Corleone betrayed him.

The two people who set off with Eugen at the beginning, Rambo was trapped in the Black Death-stricken area, and Corleone betrayed his enemy, as soon as he thought of this, Eugen felt depressed, and the expression on his face was lowered.

When Parma was a waitress in the hotel, he developed a pair of discerning eyes, and when he saw Eugen in a depressed mood at this moment, he immediately thought about the key point, and hurriedly said haha: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, there is another news, after the Tariq soldiers retreated, we also resumed information exchanges with the outside world, and learned that the situation in the country has also undergone some new changes." ”

"Huh? What changes. Eugen was immediately interested, and he turned his attention to Parma.

However, it was Margaret beside Eugen who stood up, only to hear Margaret speak: "That's right, the letter was sent by my father from Vienna, and he mentioned that there have been some rumors recently that the Hohenzollern family seems to be going to make some moves after Christmas, but they don't elaborate. ”

"The Hohenzollern family ......," Eugen muttered, this is a behemoth, far from being comparable to the Tariq DC, and even if Eugen equips all the 1,200 soldiers in his city with new muskets, it is nothing to Hohenzollern, it can only be said to be a small trouble.

Before Margaret could finish her sentence, she paused, turned her gaze to Eugen, and continued, "There is also news about the medical competition hosted by Eugen. ”

The medical competition was an important part of Eugen's fight against the Black Death, and when he heard that something was wrong, Eugen hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with the medical competition?" It's just an ordinary academic exchange meeting, and what can go wrong? ”

Margaret shook her head, sighed lightly, and then said, "Alas, there is nothing wrong with the medical competition itself, but because of this competition, doctors from many surrounding countries have been attracted to our country. However, after the beginning of winter, people everywhere got sick, and many people were killed by some common minor diseases because they could not be treated by doctors......"

Speaking of this, Margaret's expression was a little strange, she looked at the expression on Eugen's face, and then continued: "So there are rumors that you held a medical competition to weaken the power of other countries, and many people attribute the cause of the dead to you, if this statement spreads for a long time, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to you." ”

Eugen is about to cry now, what is this called, he was kind enough to hold a medical competition, and the result can lead to such rumors, which is really good intentions.
