With no one else, Huo Nan reached out and patted Marina, who was still arrogant, "Good daughter, you rest first, let me talk to this guest." ”

"What are you talking about? Father, you are also troublesome, this guy is a liar, you still don't order Royce and this liar to be arrested" Miss Marina was still angry, still pouting angrily. How could Huo Nan accompany her to mess around, smiled wryly, and finally set his eyes on the man with a blue nose and swollen face, "Who is Your Excellency, I have already arrived, so I don't have to hide it, right?" ”

Luo Weidenov just wanted to open his mouth and pull the wound, but he could only crook the corners of his mouth, "Now that the situation in Merlin City is delicate, I have to be careful, and I hope Lord Hornan will not blame." I am Lovednov, currently the Governor of Kiporos in the Great Song Empire. ”

The shadow of the famous tree of people, far away in the Kingdom of Lorraine, there are also many people who have heard of the name of Levednov, this is the first person under the command of Vyache, and then followed the Orientals, and the status has reached a higher level. Even Marina had heard of Luo Weide's name, the leader of the Hammer Gang, who turned out to be an old man who was weak enough to scum, "Are you really Luo Weidnov?" ”

"If it is fake" Luo Weidenov felt sad for a while, who said that commanding a war must be brave, the mind is the most important thing. But these words obviously can't be said to Miss Marina, and the eldest lady's brain can't understand it. Hornan frowned tightly, he was doubting Luo Weide's purpose, Royce hadn't left yet, Luo Weide ran over again, could it be that the Orientals are so desperate to marry?

"Lord Luo Weide, tell me your intentions, if it is a matter of marriage, I can't give you an answer for the time being" Huo Nan was very cunning, and when he came up, he blocked the conversation, Luo Weide was not annoyed, and after sitting down again, he said slowly, "Lord Duke is different, and now, marriage is no longer the most urgent thing." A few days ago, I got the news that the little prince Moore has formed an alliance with Rafford, and I think the Duke doesn't know about it yet. ”

Hornan looked shocked, he really didn't know about Moore and Rafford, and in his mind, the royal family wouldn't be stupid enough to get involved in Merlin. If the nobility of South Lorraine Red Grapes makes a fuss, it will not be suppressed by the power of the royal family. Huo Nan stared at Luo Weide's expression carefully, are these words true or false? Hornan suspected that these events had been concocted by Lovednov in order to induce the nobles of Southern Lorraine to turn to the Easterners. What was going on in Hornan's heart, Luo Weidenov could guess somewhat, "Lord Duke, what I said is true or false, you can find someone to confirm it?" Caron, Rafford, Moore, any one of these people will prove that what I say is true. I'm in Varro Manor with Master Royce, and you think we're lying to you, what's in it for us? Marriage? Lord Duke, to put it mildly, whether the marriage is successful or not does not affect the overall situation at all, the regent has already taken the Kingdom of Saxony, and without the Weiting family, there will still be other families. Da Song can come up with enough benefits, I don't think the Duke will have any doubts about this, right? ”

Driven by profits, anything can happen, and this is all too clear to Hornan. Luo Weidenov's words were soft and hard, and there was a knife hidden in the cotton, and Khornan's eyes quickly became sharp and solemn. In fact, Luo Weidenov is telling Hornan a truth, marriage is just a means, and in the end, whether to form an alliance or not is supported by interests, and now the situation of the Weiting family is a bit difficult to support. There is no doubt that the nobility of South Lorraine is strong, but the key is that it is not in Merlin City, and it will take time for the Weiting family to gather the nobility of South Lorraine. Marriage? Ally? Let's first understand a question, who is asking whom, in fact, it is the Wei Ting family that cannot do without the support of the empire. Without the support of the Great Song Empire, the Wei Ting family would not have survived this winter. Luo Weidenov is not to scare Hornan, the little prince Moore dares to come to Merlin City in person, if he doesn't have two brushes, wouldn't he be sent to death?

For a while, the atmosphere in the room was a little cold, Marina didn't understand what was going on at all, chatting and chatting, everyone's expressions were a little wrong? Marina was not interested in these family disputes, but the marriage was still listened to, Holnan was still thinking about the gains and losses, but Marina snorted coldly and scolded Luo Weidnov, "Luo Weide, what do you mean? Doesn't that old man in the East look down on Miss Ben? You said that if you don't get married, you won't get married, who do you think of Miss Ben? ”

Old man of the East? Royce and others were overwhelmed, the regent was in his prime, young and chic, how could he become an old man? This Marina is really unreasonable, saying that she is not happy about the marriage, and she is not happy if she does not get married, and she has the final say in the matter, and Luo Weidenov is not young, she is always scolded by a hairy girl pointing at her nose, if she is not igniting, she will become a dead person, "Miss Marina, please speak politely, the alliance is good for both parties." As for marriage, it is really dispensable, and His Royal Highness the Regent is not the kind of person who can't live without a woman. ”

Luo Weidenov said in his heart, the regent really has no shortage of women, not to mention those beautiful oriental women, even the blonde and blue-eyed Claire, will not lose to Marina. This Marina is simply a tigress. Luo Weidenov didn't speak politely at all, Marina has experienced this kind of blow since she was a child, and she was about to touch out a short sword with her neck, and Hornan's head was big, and she smiled bitterly, "Good daughter, don't make trouble, you have the final say whether you marry or not, the big thing is important at the moment." ”

No matter how Marina stared, Holnan was full of thoughts about the Luke family, thinking about it, he still felt that there was no need for Luo Weidenov to lie, and the only one who could help the Wei Ting family at the moment was the Kipros hero in front of him, "Lord Luo Weide, you have been offended a lot just now, since you have seen something, what should you do to deal with the current situation." I don't know how many soldiers and horses Lord Luo Weide brought here? ”

After asking these words, Huo Nan couldn't wait to slap himself in the face twice, and his head was in water, why did he ask such a stupid question? When Lovednov came to Merlin, he must have hidden his identity and came quietly, and besides, he was separated by a North Lorraine, how could he bring a large army here. When the eastern army entered the territory of South Lorraine, the Germanic nobles had to be frightened, and if they didn't do so, they would have to cause a bigger war. Luo Weidenov didn't blame Hornan, at this time, Hornan was full of thoughts about how to deal with the royal family, and the first thing that came to mind was definitely reinforcements, "Lord Duke is going to be disappointed, this time I came, I just brought a dozen followers." The situation of the Holy Empire is very clear to you, although the Germanic nobles are suppressed by the empire, their strength is still there, and if it is not necessary, the Great Song Empire does not want to expand the war. Therefore, even if South Lorraine was in danger, it was impossible for the Empire to send enough troops and horses. However, before coming to Varro Manor, he had already informed Lord de Colle that it was believed that in the near future, the North Lorraine side would send troops to help Merlin City. ”

Luo Weidenov will not watch the Weiting family be exterminated, the imperial army can't move, the only thing that can move is the Northern Lorraine Alliance, but unfortunately, Northern Lorraine is more inferior than Southern Lorraine, plus the Red-Capped Knights suffered heavy losses, it is estimated that there are only more than 3,000 cavalry who can come to Southern Lorraine in the end. As long as the Franks did not directly meddle in the affairs of the Kingdom of Lorraine, Lovednov still had enough confidence to control the situation. The Franks also have their own considerations, the fat Louis is not having a good time, although the royal Louis family is in a stable position, but the Frankish kingdom is not monolithic, the Franks have been fighting for the island of England for more than two years, and no practical progress has been made so far, the long war has cost countless people, and many noble lords have been war-weary. In this case, no matter how tough Louis is, it is impossible to directly send troops to get involved in the affairs of the Lorraine Kingdom, not to mention that behind the northern and southern nobles of Lorraine are still standing the Great Song Empire and the eastern Germanic nobles. The Franks were directly involved in the affairs of the Kingdom of Lorraine, and the Easterners and Germans had to join forces to drive the Franks out like frightened birds?

Since Lothair was mired in the war in the Istrian Heights, the situation of the Holy Roman Empire has become complicated, and the Franks have successively annexed several western principalities, and their power has always been to replace the Saxon dynasty, establish the Louis dynasty, and rule the Holy Empire, which the eastern nobles and Danube nobles are well aware of. In addition, there is an unfathomable Eastern Empire outside, and the major forces of the entire Holy Roman Empire have already tensed their nerves, and as long as they touch any string, a scuffle between the major forces may break out. The eastern nobles and the Danube nobles definitely did not want to start a chaotic war, and the Great Song Empire wanted to find a way to carry out the Baltic strategy and destroy the remnants of the Lothair army on the Istrian heights, and they would not ask for trouble, and the Franks also did not want to fight on two fronts. In this way, the Lorraine Kingdom, which was originally the weakest, did not have any forces to directly intervene, and this was the first time in hundreds of years that the Lorraine people decided their own fate. In the end, it will be up to the people of Lorraine to decide which way to go, whether it is Lovednov or Caron, all they can do is give advice.

Listening to Lovidnov's words, Hornan was somewhat disappointed, and also had some hopes, although the strength of North Lorraine was not very good, but the Red Top Knights were still very powerful. Next, Lovidnov gave Hornan a lot of suggestions, one of which was to strictly control the north and south city gates, and the centurions and centurions who patrolled the city must also be absolute henchmen. Hornan did not refuse, in strict accordance with Luo Weidenov's instructions, as the north and south city gate guards were replaced by the Wei Ting family's henchmen, Laford, who had been in peace, finally felt a little wrong, Moore, Fletcher and others all gathered in the castle of Nanlin Manor, Laford changed his old appearance, became radiant, and his eyes were sharp, "Huo Nan transferred the guards of the north and south city gates, it is estimated that he heard some rumors, from now on, we must act quickly, and we can't let the Wei Ting family react." The little prince sent someone to inform him, but if it wasn't good, the news was leaked from him, and he hoped that the royal soldiers and horses could approach Merlin City as soon as possible. ”

The blizzard has not stopped, and the march in this environment must be difficult, but Rafford can't wait. He knew better than anyone how much influence the Weiting family had on Merlin City, and in a short period of time, the Luke family could still rely on the prestige and connections they had accumulated before to exert influence on Merlin City, but with the passage of time, this influence would gradually decline. The longer the time drags on, the more beneficial it will be to the Wei Ting family, not to mention that there are so many red grape nobles helping the Wei Ting family. Raffle still has some confidence in his secret work, but it is the little prince Moore, who is young and arrogant, and will somewhat underestimate the Weiting family, hey, it is really too immature. Lafford personally ordered, the Weilan family and the Luke family immediately took action, after Moore got the news, his face became very ugly, and his heart burned with anger, so he slammed the things in the house, "Who leaked the plan?" ”

The plan was leaked in advance, and the arrangements made before could only be put on the agenda early, although some were disgusted with Rafford's domineering, but there was still not the slightest doubt about Lafford's wisdom. While the Luke family was secretly plotting, Moore also sent a letter out of the city. Forty miles north of Merlin, there was a town called Lennon, which was unusually quiet on days of wind and snow, and only the smoke and dust showed that there were still people alive. In this town, there are nearly 5,000 royal troops, of which more than 2,000 are cavalry. According to the previously agreed plan, as long as the heavy snow stops, it can directly hit Merlin City. The person in charge of the surprise attack on Merlin City this time was a noble commander from the Senate, whose birth name was Gao Red, also known as Count Gao De. Gao Red kept cursing the ghost weather above his head, and drank the liquor in the porcelain pot intermittently, "This kind of bird weather can freeze people into popsicles, if you don't drink some wine, you will feel uncomfortable." ”

"But it's not, we are freezing here, but the third prince is hiding in the city to enjoy the blessings, it seems that he is either a cronie or he can't do it" Another centurion also complained, and Gao Red pretended not to hear it, and did not comment on it. Towards evening, the cold wind was a little lesser, and the door of the house was pushed open, and gusts of cold wind mixed with snowflakes drifted into the room, and everyone shivered with cold. The person who came was Moore's cronies and guards, and when he saw Gao Red, he hurriedly took out the letter sealing the wax, "Lord Gao Red, this is a personal letter from the third prince. ”

After only two glances at the letter, Gao Red was shocked, how could the good plan be leaked? Gao Red had participated in the Eastern Crusade and knew the danger of marching in windy and snowy weather, especially cavalry, which was not suitable for marching in the wind and snow. But as soon as he thought of Moore's identity, he had to grit his teeth and act according to the order, that was the son of Matteire, if he didn't save him when he died, then he Gao Red would definitely not live, "Inform me, after tomorrow, after the end of tomorrow, regardless of whether the wind and snow have stopped, all the troops will march and target Merlin City." Be sure to arrive at the outskirts of Merlin City after the day, the third prince is in trouble. ”

"The third prince is in trouble?" Originally, there were still people who wanted to raise objections, but when they heard that Moore was in danger, many people swallowed the words back. No one who can sit in the room is a fool. It's really going to be miserable now, marching and fighting in a raging snowstorm, I really don't know how many people will die on the way. Dozens of miles of land, at first glance it doesn't sound far, but this distance is enough to freeze people to death. Time passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, it came to the first month of the sixth year of Taikang, and the snow in Suplin Castle finally stopped, but the ice and snow in Merlin City fell more and more. The originally overwhelming ice and snow provided a lot of convenience for the Luke family's actions, and in the ice and snow weather, the city patrols could not lift their spirits, and the soldiers of the Luke family quickly gathered quietly. Just wait for Rafford's order to launch the most fierce attack on all parts of the city. In the castle of Nanlin Manor, Lafford is still very quiet, sipping fine wine and squinting, like an ordinary rich old man. Moore also came to Nanlin Manor, and when he saw Lafford so calm, he really admired that his Royal Highness the prince still had a lot to learn compared to these old family lords. This qi cultivation kung fu alone is not something that can be learned in a while.

In the past, Moore never felt that there was anything terrible about the nobles of North and South Lorraine, and the reason why they were able to fight against the royal family was just that these nobles worked together, and if they really pulled out a single family, they were not the opponents of the royal family at all. After seeing Hornan and Rafford, this concept quickly changed, none of these nobles are easy to get along with, the strength of the Luke family is not strong, but Lafford is still so cunning, then the other families, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult. The soldiers and horses lying in ambush outside the city have already braved the ice and snow to act, Moore is very anxious, if he is not absolutely helpless, he will definitely not come to Nanlin Manor, "Lord Earl, the royal guards have already marched towards Merlin City, and our side must also act quickly." De Koller is not an old thing to bully, and the sooner we act, the better it will be for us to avoid long nights and dreams. ”

Moore focused on mentioning the word "we" to remind Lafford and others that now that the two sides are allies in the same boat, no one wants to leave a way back at this time, and those who jump off the boat by luck have only a dead end. During this time, Moore has done some knowledge about the Luke family and the Weilan family, these large and small families may not be as powerful as the royal family, but the bad things in the family are no less than the royal family. There are also many contradictions within the family, each fighting their own little ninety-nine, not a monolith, Moore doesn't want to ruin the big things that the royal family has planned for a long time because of other people's bad things. How smart Rafford was, of course he understood the warning in Moore's tone, and the corners of his mouth twitched, a little unhappy, "The matter is serious, and the people of the Luke family can still tell the difference." Your Highness, let's be more careful, those people in Hornan are not easy to get along with, and Merlin City may fall into turmoil at any time. ”

Jommy and the others were also somewhat dissatisfied with Moore, the third prince looked domineering, and he didn't put himself in the right position at all. The two sides are a cooperative relationship, not a family cheeky paste. There were some young family members who had already sneered at Moore, who was unaware of it, and discussed some things with Raffle, and walked out of Nanlin Manor under the eyes of many family children. The matter of Nanlin Manor naturally can't be hidden from the eyes of the Wei Ting family all over Meilin City, the Wei Ting family sits in Meilin City, and if they want to spy on someone, it can't be easier, not to mention that the two sides have already torn their faces, and Moore didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts. In the hall of the castle of Varro Manor, there were more than a dozen South Lorraine nobles, and at this time, everyone's faces were solemn and worried, the South Lorraine nobles were actually not monolithic, and many people still had a fluke mentality in dealing with the royal family. Take the Mullanr family as an example, they think that the royal family will not do such a crazy thing, although the nobles of South Lorraine have a tendency to fall to the Easterners, but after all, they have not fallen to the past, and if the royal family kills at this time, it will force the South Lorraine to make a choice. Whether the Orientals can be trusted or not, no one knows, for most of the Red Grape nobles, the Orientals are just a legendary existence, but the threat of the royal family and the Franks is real. Hornan did not persecute these nobles, and as the leader of the nobility of South Lorraine, he had to consider the interests of these nobles. Everyone is waiting, near the Varro Manor, there are hundreds of soldiers loyal to the Red Grape Nobles, they are patiently waiting for the news of the Luke family, only when they see the next move of the Luke family, the Red Grape nobles can make the final choice.

The two soldiers of the Weiting family stepped on the thick snow and ran in a hurry, their faces were full of anxiety, sweat on their foreheads continued to seep out, and seeing that most of the nobles in the hall looked at them with unkind faces, the two soldiers hurriedly saluted, "Lord Duke, just now His Royal Highness Moore went to Nanlin Manor, since Prince Moore left, the people of the Luke family have been busy, and the family soldiers have also gathered in the residence in the east. ”

After waiting for so long, and finally waiting for the news he wanted, Hornan nodded and motioned for the two soldiers to go down, he leaned on the edge of the table, and said with some cold arrogance, "Everyone, now it is very obvious that the royal family has colluded with the Luke family for the purpose of seizing the interests of South Lorraine. If we still don't do anything, not only Merlin City will be lost, but the South Lorraine family will also have to act according to the royal family's face in the future. ”

In the face of these nobles, Huo Nan did not tell the slightest lie, none of these people are old and sophisticated, and those who play with them can only ask for their own hardships. More than a dozen nobles exchanged heads and talked in low voices, and it didn't take long for these nobles who were still hesitating before all stood up and shouted, "The Duke is right, since the royal family wants to rob us of the interests in our hands, then we can't let anyone slaughter us." Your Excellency, give your orders, and we will spare no effort to support your Lordship in controlling the situation in Merlin City. ”

None of these nobles are stupid, they also have their own interests, but they are absolutely one-minded in the face of the royal family. If the royal family is in power, all the Lorraine nobles will be unlucky, for more than two hundred years, the Lorraine nobles have long been accustomed to autonomy, and now let them look at the royal family's face and act, where can they stand it. Huo Nan smiled and nodded, and then the next thing was simple, just need to concentrate the forces of the Merlin nobles and deal with the Luke family well. Of course, not every Merlin nobleman is as confident as Hornan. A nobleman couldn't help but ask with some concern, "Lord Duke, none of us know what means the royal family is hiding, will it be a little inappropriate to act rashly?" ”

Seeing that many people nodded in agreement, Huo Nan was secretly depressed in his heart, fortunately, he had long known that these nobles had looked forward and had a response. His expression remained unchanged, and he said confidently, "Actually, you don't have to worry, although the Luke family has the help of the royal family, we are not fighting alone. North Lorraine will soon come to our aid, and this time Merlin will seize power, and we will definitely win. ”

As soon as Huo Nan's words came out, many nobles immediately shook their heads with a wry smile, "Lord Duke, why are you so convinced?" The white-skinned grapes in the north will not lend a helping hand to us, and we will fight with the royal family, and it will be too late for them to sit and watch the excitement. ”

The struggle between the nobles of North and South Lorraine has been going on for a long time, and the two sides will inevitably collide on the way to open up trade interests, and over time, they will become a pair of enemies. It's just that there is a royal family in the middle, and considering the existence of the royal family, there has been no big fight. Will North Lorraine rush to the aid of Merlin City? Isn't this a joke, many people think that the Yankees are unreliable, not to mention that the losses of those Gangsters in the Istrian Highlands are not small. Huo Nan was not surprised, with the grievances of several generations of people in North and South Lorraine, it was really difficult for them to believe that the nobles of North Lorraine would rush to the aid of Merlin City, "Naturally, we can't let the northern white-skinned grapes help, but what if the Easterners help?" ”

A group of South Lorraine nobles all stared, Lord Holnan was joking, the Orientals were far away in the Kingdom of Saxony, where could they take care of the affairs of the Lorraine. But gradually, everyone's expressions became serious, because they found that Huo Nan had been calm and calm, and there was no meaning of joking at all. The Orientals sent someone? ”

Hornan did not rush to answer, but clapped his hands gently, and then a man slowly walked down the wooden steps, and the person who came walked to the long table and saluted the surrounding South Lorraine nobles, "I, Deacon Kipros, the envoy sent to Lorraine by the Empire, Lovidnov, have not been able to inform you because I came in a hurry. ”

Hey, the room was full of the sound of cold air, who didn't know the name of Luo Weidenov, this person was the imperial minister under the command of the Eastern Emperor, and he had unimaginable influence in Kipros, such an important person, he actually came to Merlin City. A South Lorraine nobleman stood up with some excitement, looked at Luo Weidnov and said in a trembling voice, "Are you really Lord Luo Weide?" ”

"Naturally, yes, if it is fake" Luo Weidenov smiled faintly, he didn't take these things too seriously, if you want to maintain the situation in Merlin City, you must unite these nobles, and self-confidence is also particularly important, "The regent takes a fancy to the Lorraine people, and since he has the heart of alliance, how can he watch the royal family and the Franks come to kill the people of South Lorraine?" ”

Lovednov spoke very skillfully, he only spoke of alliances, and never mentioned marriages. In fact, it is to tell Huo Nan and the Southern Lorraine nobles present that the Northern Lorraine nobles are cronies and allies under the command of the Great Song Empire, and it is also because of the alliance that they will help the Southern Lorraine, if the Southern Lorraine does not align, it will be a different situation. As for the marriage, it is just a means, but don't use the marriage to blackmail people, if you don't let everyone break up, that Miss Marina will be left to the nobles of South Lorraine to raise. The corners of Hornan's mouth twitched, and the other nobles also twitched, they really deserved to be the old fox of Kipros, it sounded soft, but in fact, he had a gun and a stick, and now if anyone dares to disgust the Orientals with the matter of marriage, Luo Weidenov estimated that he would go straight away. Grandma is a bear, hooked up with the Orientals, offended the Franks, Louis's dead fat man could not marry Marina again, the Orientals have this attitude, and now Miss Marina has become a princess that no one wants. It's not that it's unsightly, it's really Miss Marina's magical experience, and any man has to weigh his own pounds. What if Yi Yi Yi or the Eastern Emperor don't want others to get involved with Marina, then whoever marries Marina will be the old birthday star who hangs himself and dies.

Lack of virtue, really lack of virtue, Hornan had the urge to strangle Luo Weidenov to death, but due to the current situation, he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. With the backing of Levednov, the confidence of the nobles of South Lorraine is much stronger, and Lovednov stays in Merlin City, and the Orientals will definitely try their best to help the nobles of South Lorraine. But in fact, these nobles didn't know that Lovednov was just bluffing, and in fact there were only a dozen soldiers who were actually brought to Merlin City. Next, Hornan began to make concrete deployments, and for two hundred years, a battle for power in Merlin City, which decided the fate of the Kingdom of Lorraine, began.

On the fourth day of the first month of the sixth year of Taikang, the emerging nobles led by the Luke family suddenly dispatched more than 200 family soldiers to launch a fierce attack on Nuremberg, south of the Merlin Boulevard. Nuremberg was the material transit place of the nobles of South Lorraine in Merlin, there were too many materials hidden here, and the Luke family launched an attack here, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the city patrolmen, and a large number of city patrolmen began to approach in the direction of Nuremberg, whistles and shouts resounded throughout Merlin City, and the streets became chaotic. At this time, there were not many pedestrians on the street, the cold wind was blowing, the ice and snow were combined, and the advantages outside were so chaotic that many people in Meilin were so frightened that they hid at home and did not dare to go out. The struggle between the Luke family and the nobles of South Lorraine was not something that ordinary people could participate in.

Around Nuremberg, the two sides launched a fierce fight, the Luke family seemed to be determined to take Nuremberg, batch after batch of soldiers were sent here, the battle line was constantly pulled, in order to cope with the onslaught of the Luke family, the nobles of South Lorraine also continued to reinforce, an hour later, the entire Nuremberg has been concentrated around more than 2,000 soldiers and horses on both sides. More than 2,000 people, in the dark night, smashed the surrounding buildings to pieces.

The nobles of South Lorraine all sat in the Varro estate, and even if the situation in Nuremberg was in crisis, the Varro estate did not send any more reinforcements. Whether it is Hornan or Lovednov, they believe that the main direction of attack of the Luke family is definitely not Nuremberg. Nuremberg seems to be very important, but it can't decide the ownership of Merlin City in a short period of time, and the loss of Nuremberg is only material money, and its own strength is not fatal, at least not in a short time. The more this time, the more calm you have to be, the Luke family, under the leadership of Lafford, is definitely not easy to get along with, since you don't know what the opponent's specific goal is, you can only see the move.

"I hope you will continue to instruct that no matter what happens, the defenders of the north and south gates must guard the city walls, as long as there are no problems with the city gates, they will not be able to turn the sky" Hornan's decision was not wrong, and Lovednov thought the same way. At this time, in the Nanlin Manor, Laford also showed a trace of anxiety, it has been so long since Nuremberg was stormed, and the nobles of South Lorraine just didn't take the bait, "Jomi, hasn't there been any movement at the south gate?" ”

"Lord Duke, the patrol soldiers in the south are still guarding the south gate, and there is no sign of reinforcement Nuremberg, or we will increase the intensity of the attack" Jomi scratched his head very anxiously, daring to tear his face with the old forces led by the Weiting family, relying on the royal soldiers and horses, if the royal army could not be let into the city, then the ending would not be too good. Surge? It sounds good, but Raffle only thought about it for a moment and shook his head heavily, "No, if we draw more troops, we won't have enough troops to attack the South Gate." The south gate is the top priority, if you fight, you must maintain enough advantages to take the south gate in one fell swoop, and not give Hornan a chance to react and increase troops. ”

Lafford's side couldn't think of a good solution, and Hornan didn't have a good idea either, and the two sides ended up in a stalemate around Nuremberg. Luo Weidenov is very aware of the consequences of such a fight, if he does not induce the true strength of the Luke family, he will definitely suffer from it in the end, and he must find a way to break the deadlock, "Lord Duke, please also order half of the troops from the north and south gates to rush to Nuremberg." But don't really marry Nuremberg, make enough noise along the way, lurk in scattered formations, and see how Lappord's side reacts. ”

Lovednov's trick was not clever, it was a typical fishing strategy, but it worked, and Rafford and the Luke family did not have time to wait, they would bite the bait whenever they had the chance, because for the Luke family, the opportunity itself was not much. Hornan's eyes lit up, and he glanced deeply at Luo Weidenov, he really deserved to be Kipros's old fritters, and the tricks of the yin people were endless. The old fox of Raffle met Lovidnov, and it was like a salted fish meeting an old cat. How could Huo Nan not know the mystery, so he naturally hurried to order, as for how to only create momentum and how to deceive the other party, if these still have to be taught by Luo Weidenov, then the nobles of South Lorraine should buy a piece of tofu and die.

Merlin City is fighting inextricably, and in the Supulin Castle, thousands of miles away, Zhao Yougong is also facing a huge problem. News had just come from Wood Island that the Swedes near Lake Hylaren were beginning to be lonely due to the Danish reinforcement of Yellinburg. The Helaren aristocracy, led by the Chriss, began to unite with some Norwegians to form the Baltic Guard. One of the men in charge of this army is Prince Scotto, who is from the Swedish royal family, which is too common, you must know that the Swedes have been based on the development of fleets for many years, even in the era of Vikings, they were mainly warships, and never thought of forming a large land army. Now that a force of more than 30,000 people and three corps has been produced in one go, it is difficult to think about it. Sam felt that something was wrong and sent someone to Supulin Castle without stopping. From Wood Island to Suplin Castle, it took nearly half a month, and no one knows what the situation is near Hylaren now.

Xiao Zhiyun was also thinking about it, and gradually had some thoughts of her own, "Are we too worried, the Swedes are doing this just to increase their voice in future negotiations and compete for more interests." ”

"Whether it's or not, but this momentum is definitely not a good thing for us, ambitions are inflated little by little, if we let the Swedes taste the sweetness, there will definitely be more trouble in the future" Zhao Yougong knows the disadvantages of it, no one is a natural careerist, they all grow up step by step, once the Swedes' ambitions are inflated, the unlucky ones are not the Great Song Dynasty, and it is not good to control the Baltic Sea at all.

Xiao Zhiyun nodded secretly, she had to find a way to let the Swedes know that she was powerful, "I'm afraid I can't wait for the situation in Lorraine to have a result, and we need to deal with the remnants of the Germanic army active in the Istrian heights as soon as possible." In this way, the day after tomorrow, let Shao Lie and Gao Zhong lead the troops to Festak City, and cooperate with the officials to clear the remnants of Lothair. As long as the remnants of Lothair's army are wiped out, the Danes, even if they have the courage to fight us, may not dare to fight us in Kipros. ”

"Well, I can only do this at the moment, I really calculated it, I didn't calculate that something would happen to the Swedes" Zhao Yougong smiled bitterly, and the truth slapped this group of mercenary Swedes to death.

In the same way, the Danes did not expect that when the kingdom of Kipoula wanted to compete with the Orientals, the Swedes were uneasy and lonely, and quickly rose to the top of Lake Helalen. Fayunna got the military report from Lake Hylaren, his eyelids jumped wildly, to be honest, the kingdom has never taken the Swedes seriously, what else can this group of Swedes do except build ships and resell materials? It is this long-standing contempt psychology that has made the kingdom suffer a loss, no matter how much combat power the Swedes have, but standing up at this critical moment and inserting a lever is a variable after all. It is easy to wave troops to Lake Hylaren and kill the Chris family, the key is the Orientals. What if the Easterners take the opportunity to sneak attack? Fayunna hated the Swedes to death, and he was also very anxious, hoping that Lothair could hold on for a while, if he really wanted to talk about it, he still underestimated the Orientals, who would have thought that the Orientals would advance so fast and directly push Lothair's army into a desperate situation.

Fayunna is not a reckless person, he knows very well in his heart what the consequences will be if he fights with the Orientals, and he has to be cautious in order to launch a large-scale military operation against Kipros, he carefully calculates every step, for fear that there will be a loophole.
