At the time of the turmoil in Beijung, the Nila Empire on the south side seemed very calm, and the defeat of Bedoria dampened Nila's spirit, and Nicholas XXV did not say a word about the attack on the Tubis, but only told Bedoria to seriously garrison the territory of Seoul.

For the Knight of Dragon City, they spent the year sitting and watching the three empires act, gloating over the cannibalism between them.

However, not everyone was happy about this, except for Dimis who often meditated alone and felt very disturbed by it.

That night Carter came to visit Dimis again, and he came to Dimis house alone, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, saying, "Master Dimis, have you slept?" ”

Dimis, who was sitting in front of the desk, immediately got up and opened the door, and respectfully greeted Carter and said, "The chief of affairs hasn't slept so late, please come in and take a seat." ”

Carter glanced at Dimis's room and saw that Xiao Daocheng was also sitting here, so he asked curiously: "Hey, why is Xiao Daocheng here today, what are you talking about?" ”

Xiao Daocheng got up and replied, "Oh, it's nothing. When I had nothing to do, I came over to chat with Captain Dimis, and I just happened to talk about Cerdan in Beijung. ”

"Hmm!" Carter slowly sat down and said with interest: "I have also heard the legend about this Cheldan, who is known as a fierce tiger and is full of guts. ”

Dimiss grinned lightly, sat down nonchalantly and said, "All of our knights are gone, and how many of our knights are really afraid of death?" ”

Carter turned his head to Dimis and asked, "What?" Lord Dimis doesn't seem to value this Childan very much, is his ability blown? Isn't it actually that great? ”

Dimis shook his head and replied: "That's not to say, it's really rare to have such a powerful character in Beirong, and the Adanghan next to him is probably not an ordinary person." It's just that the two of them are now being trusted and promoted by the king of Beirong, and the form of Beirong is estimated to be much better, which is what we should worry about the most. ”

Carter frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, if their king of Beirong reuses these two people and uses the power of the whole empire to build a new army of their knights in Beirong, it will become very troublesome, and the second Tubis Empire will start to appear again." ”

Dimis nodded and replied, "yes." They have a lot of land in Beirong, a lot of pasture areas, and the horse resources in the empire are not bad. Their conditions for forming the Order are much better than our Knights, and if they continue to develop, they can indeed be greatly improved. ”

Carter asked again, "Isn't it possible for us in Alto's territory to sell some horses from the sea trade one after another?" ”

Dimiss smiled and said, "Yes, this can be regarded as our Knight has found a way out, but this way is not very safe." Who can say that the things of trade are good, and if there is no none, it depends entirely on the old trader Fei Lieduo, who knows how long he can live? ”

Carter smiled after hearing this and said, "How can we still be qualified to think so far, just take care of us in the present first, and talk about the future later, there are still many things to be busy with now." I've heard that the Tubis Warrior Tournament is about to begin, and it won't be long before Warkas gets supplies from the new army, so what might he do in the future? Will you directly send a large army to attack our Dragon City? ”

Dimis nodded slightly, then slowly thought about it.

Xiao Daocheng opened his mouth and said: "I'm afraid it's not so fast, this new army supplies must first be trained, and after training, we can only be sent to Knight." ”

Dimisi turned his head to look at Xiao Daocheng and said, "That's right, it will take a lot of time to come and go, and it should be next year." ”

Carter nodded, and he continued: "I guess that after Warkas gets supplies from the new army, he will definitely attack Haocheng and Hancheng as soon as possible, rather than targeting our Dragon City first. ”

The two looked up together and asked, "Why?" ”

Carter replied slowly, "Because the Tubis need a stable line of defense, it is not safe to just stay in Cobilon, because the Nila and Pejungs can bypass Cobilon at any time to attack the royal capital of Widun or the royal capital, and even make a surprise attack on the fortress of Yuguan on a long journey. Only by capturing the Handong Fortress and the Haodong Fortress, the Tubisi only need to station a small number of troops in the two fortresses to completely resist the Nila and Beirong people from the fortress. In this way, after eliminating the threat of the two empires on the east side, the Tubis can concentrate on dealing with our Knights, and completely turn all the Nete territories into their Tubi lands. ”

Xiao Daocheng said: "The elder is right, I have always forgotten this factor. With Wakas's brilliant mind, I think he'd definitely choose to do it. ”

Dimis nodded slightly, he didn't say anything, because Carter's analysis was very good, and he didn't have any objection to it.

Soon Dimiss mentioned something else, reminding Carter, "Let's talk about our own business." The Alto Territory was a barren place a year ago, and since the Duke of Caldis took the refugees there, the Alto Territory has changed by the day. Now they have not only built an outlet to the sea in the mountains to the south, but also further expanded the port of Miller, and the territory of Alto is no longer what it used to be. ”

After listening to this, Xiao Daocheng then elaborated: "This Miller does have two hits, and he has made a set of skills in sales. In order to meet the needs of the other side of the ocean, the chariots and horses of Huiyuan frequently rushed to Alto, and the territory of Huiyuan was also prosperous. ”

Carter was stunned for a moment after hearing this, he frowned and asked, "When did this Duke Quit have such a close relationship with Duke Caldis, could it be that they have already discussed this to join forces to expand this trade route?" ”

Xiao Daocheng obviously didn't know, and shook his head again and again.

Dimis seemed to know something, and he added: "Last winter, I heard that after the knights' tournament, Quarter took his daughter Marcello with him to Alto, as if to learn the experience of territorial governance. But at that time, they hadn't found an outlet to the sea, and maybe at that time they had already formed a tacit understanding to tie up together to make a living. ”

Carter smiled and said, "That's okay, these two most barren lands must be done well, and our Dragon City will have more strength to fight against the barbarians in the future." ”

Dimis said worriedly: "But Lord Affair, this Caldis has made the territory of Alto very impressive, and the people who have migrated from all over the country are still moving in with them one after another, so the prestige of the Duke of Caldis will soon overshadow you." In addition, Caldis is now the Duke of the Kingdom, and if his status and reputation are better than those of the Elder Minister, it will be very disadvantageous to you in the future. ”

"What is this, what can be disadvantaged." , Carter didn't take this matter to heart at all, for him, everyone works for His Royal Highness the Prince, and if others can do better, it is also a great thing.

But Dimiss didn't think so, he calmly analyzed: "Master Affairs, what will become of us Knight in the future, no one knows now. But our goal now is to assist the Elder to become the new First Duke of our Knights, and if he continues to be so lucky, we will find it difficult to achieve. ”

Carter smiled and said, "Why do you have to fight for this first duke, I will be the second, third and fourth duke, isn't it the same." Even if you can't be a duke, wouldn't it be good to be the current viscount? ”

Dimis's face changed slightly, and he said slightly unhappily: "Master Affairs, what is the status of this viscount, our newly promoted knight captains are all viscounts, and this does not represent your unique identity at all." To do great things, we have to go up, look forward, and the goal must be set more ambitious, otherwise we will soon become an obscure ordinary person. ”

Carter smiled and nodded, he patted Dimis on the shoulder and said, "Yes, Lord Dimis." No matter how well the territory is governed, the real prestige of our Knight depends on the performance on the battlefield. What can I fight with Lord Caldis now, I don't have a decent territory, and even if I have great skills, I can't find a place to show my strength, right? ”

Dimis, who was stunned for a moment, hurriedly asked, "Oh." The Lord of Affairs means that the battle with the Tubis in the future will be our chance to show our ambitions, so you have put your hopes on the battlefield? ”

"That's not it!" , Xiao Daocheng opened his mouth and said: "In our Knight, coming back from the battlefield in triumph is more majestic than you being the first duke of the kingdom." ”

Dimis smiled, but he sighed again and said, "But it's also hard." If you think about it, he Caldis is the commander-in-chief of the First Legion, with ruthless characters like Robitt, Cook, and Annie, as well as a brilliant Viscount Miller. The others like Mompot, Xsodo, and the Desk, Roshabal, and Delan were all very good. They also found their long-lost brother Jombus from the bandits, and this person is also quite powerful. Carefully calculated, they have much more effective men than us, and they will obviously have a much greater advantage than us on the battlefield in the future. ”

Carter nodded, and he replied with more distress, "What I said is that no matter what, this is a good thing for our Dragon City and Kingdom, and they are not our enemies, so why worry so much?" I, Carter, was originally a village man's child, and I am very satisfied to have such an opportunity today, maybe these things are just the beginning for me, who can say what will happen in the future? ”

After saying that, Carter reminded Dimis: "Dimis, there is one thing I want to explain to you. We came together for the sake of allegiance to the kingdom and to Knight, not to engage in infighting like Cologne. We Knight people are now at a critical juncture of life and death, and the only way out for us Knight is to unite our allegiance to His Royal Highness the Prince and work together to deal with the barbarians. ”

After saying this, Carter got up to take his leave.

Dimis hurriedly explained: "Don't be angry, Lord Affairs, of course I'm not here to deal with Caldis, don't get me wrong. I don't want to be assigned to someone else's side one day, so that your grand wishes may not have the opportunity to be fulfilled. This was the case when I had been loyal to the Duke of Illit in the Territory of Lysburg, and I did not want to follow in my footsteps. ”

Carter listened very carefully, he reached out and patted Dimis on the shoulder and said, "I know exactly what you mean, I'm not angry." Don't worry, His Royal Highness the Prince and Duke Thatcher both trust me, and since I am the commander-in-chief of the Second Army, I will definitely not let my brothers down, and I will never take everyone to the second person other than His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

After saying that, Carter waved goodbye, and Dimis and Xiao Daocheng accompanied him to the door.

After Carter's figure disappeared around the corner of the dark street, Xiao Daocheng turned to Dimis and said, "Lord Dimis, don't think about it, Lord Carter has his own arrangements in mind." There are many things that you think about too early, which may not be a good thing, and the future will be discussed later. I'm going back to rest, so I'm going to leave it at that. ”

Dimis nodded and replied, "Understood, then you can go back and rest early, and we'll see you tomorrow." ”

Xiao Daocheng saluted slightly, turned around and slipped into the night.
