Chapter 258: On the eve of the Libo War

Swish!

The silver light flashed, and a dagger appeared in the hand of the black-clothed cloaked man, a very luxurious dagger, with a gold-encrusted diamond handle and an alloy steel blade, of course, this was all Copperfield's guess, after all, he was some distance away from the black-clothed cloaked man, and he could only vaguely see a rough idea.

"Is the famous magician Copperfield a coward who only knows how to hide in the shadows and sneak attack?"

The man in the black cloak finally spoke, but his voice was unpleasant, like that of a crow. Copperfield somewhat understood why he didn't speak, such a voice was indeed a little inconsistent with the image of the aristocratic tulip family in the killer, and Copperfield couldn't help but chuckle when he thought of this.

It was also Copperfield's own carelessness, his chuckle did not deliberately conceal his position, the black-cloaked man smiled gloomily and then disappeared in an instant, and when he reappeared, he had already appeared on Copperfield's side, it was obvious that Copperfield was startled by the appearance of the black-cloaked man, he was not a melee figure, and several playing cards were thrown out quickly while quickly pulling away the distance.

Ding Ding Ding!

The black-cloaked man was very fast, but there was still a playing card across the side of his face, and the cloak was cut open by a five-centimeter cut. Although he couldn't see the look, Copperfield knew that the other party didn't care about the passing death, because everything was under the control of the other party.

"You're good!"

Copperfield had to praise him, knowing that he was a veteran powerhouse in Europe, who had also been a killer and had contact with the Tulip family. But he had never seen this one in front of him. It can only be said that he is a newcomer. How could a newcomer not appreciate being able to do this?

It's a pity that Copperfield's words were echoed by the rapid approach of the black-cloaked man, who is the real killer, because he has only one purpose, that is, to deal with the enemy, and never talk nonsense to the enemy!

"Relax, relax, I'm not hostile to you!"

Saying that there was no hostility, Copperfield, who was quickly retreating, quickly threw out one playing card after another, and those playing cards were undoubtedly towards the key point of the black-cloaked man. No one said that Copperfield was hypocritical, after all, this is your life-and-death business, who will really take what he says at this time? Of course. Maybe there are some people who take it seriously, but those people have already died in such scenes.

The old liar appeared by the window on the second floor, and he also saw the wonderful duel below, one after another playing cards turned into white light and flashed to the side of the black-cloaked man, and the black-clothed cloaked man quickly waved the dagger in his hand, although the speed of the playing cards was extremely fast, but so far it has not really hurt the black-cloaked man.

"Haha, it's really good, I hope you can avoid my big and small king."

A deck of 54 cards was quickly thrown out by Copperfield, and now he has only the big and small kings left in his hands. And these two are also a small trick of Copperfield, if the man in the black cloak can dodge it again. Then Copperfield will really have to fight each other, and it will not be easy for the black-cloaked man to want or leave here at that time.

Woohoo!

Two white rays of light arced left and right towards the black-cloaked man, which was much slower than the previous cards, but the black-cloaked man didn't mean to be relaxed at all, because he knew that since Copperfield said that this was a small skill of his, then these two cards would definitely not be as simple as he saw.

The dagger swept towards one of the Xiao Wangs, but unexpectedly the dagger obviously hit Xiao Wang, but there was no sense of contact, and he looked at it with wide eyes, one Xiao Wang had turned into two Xiao Wang at this time, and they shot at the black-clothed cloaked man in an arc again, in fact, it was not only Xiao Wang, but the other big king was also the same.

A roll, the man in the black cloak dodged the four cards in embarrassment, his ability is not bad, the four cards dodge three, but it is meaningless, because the last card cuts through his chest, although it is not fatal, but it is enough to make the man in black cloaked lose most of his combat effectiveness.

At this time, Copperfield had lost interest, after all, the other party couldn't even hide his playing cards, what else could he talk about? You must know that Copperfield's best thing is to change the life and psychological suggestion, compared to those things, what playing cards in front of him are small paths.

Shaking his magic robe, when the guards looked at him again, he had disappeared cleanly, and several onlookers in the distance ran over to take away the black-cloaked man who had basically lost his combat effectiveness, they needed to interrogate each other, it would be best if they could find the nest of the Tulip family, after all, the Security Bureau did not want to be passive all the time.

The result of the matter was quickly handed over to Ernst, and he was not surprised that the Tulip family's killer was detained in the hands of the Security Bureau, and if the other party could really kill the target at Copperfield's hands, it would be something that surprised Ernst, and of course Copperfield would lose his role.

The benefits of the Royal Guard Service of the Czech Principality are very high, but the competition is also fierce, and if you don't show the corresponding ability, you have to go one way. Of course, those who were wounded in battle were more or less able to receive the allowance from the Czech Duchy, which never neglected the meritorious people.

While the Royal Intelligence Service of the Czech Principality was still struggling to find the tulip family's nest, territorial disputes began to arise in North Africa, and the northern part of the Kingdom of Morocco was formed, and a new republic was formed. Ernst, who was also a member of the International Royal Council, could not sit idly by and ignore such a matter, although his own problems had not yet been resolved.

Direct military support is too influential, and now Ernst can't easily use his military power, after all, Britain, France and the Soviet Union are still eyeing the enemy, but in this world, it is not only military power that can hit the enemy, but also the economy.

In response to the new republic, several economic experts began to look for the economic loopholes of the new country, and at the same time, hundreds of excellent spies went to that country, their purpose was simple, sabotage, assassination, as long as the means that could make the new country chaotic can be used at will. Of course, none of this can be exposed, so the spies who went to the New Republic are no longer members of the intelligence service of the Czech principality, and they are responsible for all their actions.

Obvious cover-up? But so what, as long as you don't admit it, then others know that they can't do anything to you, after all, this is still a world where strength speaks, and powerful countries can do anything wrong, and if you don't have strength, you can't refuse even if you don't have a black cauldron.

At the beginning of October, Ernst went to the border, and the 50,000 Lithuanian army was ready to go, and they were opposite the 150,000 Polish army, but the strength was completely different from the strength on the surface, the Royal Lithuanian Army did not have the slightest fear, and the Polish army was very weak-minded.

Friedrich accompanied Ernst to a very advantageous position, through the telescope Ernst could already see the Polish border town, the periphery of the town was the Polish garrison, and the garrison in the town directly opposite Ernst was about a regiment, of course, this data was Friedrich said that Ernst was not able to see the details of the other party at a glance.

"We are preparing for a full-scale attack on Poland on the 8th, Your Majesty the King ......"

"I'm right here, you won't make me the first emperor to be captured in a hundred years!"

Ernst was just a joke, but it was undoubtedly a shame in Friedrich's ears, but he did not say anything, he was ready to show everything with his actions. Ernst naturally saw Friedrich's seriousness, but he wouldn't explain anything, after all, it was a good thing.

Although Ernst was half a soldier, he was not familiar with military affairs, and in addition to casually strolling around the camp, he met with some junior officers and asked them for their opinions and reassurance on the welfare of the current soldiers, not to mention, such an act made Ernst's status in the hearts of the soldiers skyrocket.

The Polish side did not know that Ernst had reached the border, but they also understood from the recent actions of the military of the Kingdom of Lithuania that war was imminent, and that Britain and France were vague about Poland's request for help, and the Soviet side could not count on it at all, and the only thing Poland could rely on was itself.

Conscription, go to the front, on the night of the 7th, 200,000 troops have gathered on the Polish border, which is also the entire military strength of Poland, once the 200,000 army is defeated, then Poland will no longer exist.

Poland is naturally worried about its other neighbor, the Czech principality, but now that the Soviet Union is containing, the Czech principality does not have to worry about making too big a move, of course, the Soviet Union is containing the Czech principality at the same time as the Czech principality is also containing the Soviet Union, otherwise the Soviet Union would have already taken action against Latvia and Estonia.

"That's the cruelty of politics, Bert."

Shaking his glass, as if he couldn't see the tension outside, it was more appropriate for Ernst to accompany Bert to gossip or sigh. Ernst naturally spoke not of the war that was now coming, but of the attitude of Britain and France, who, in the face of their own interests, completely abandoned Poland.

In fact, Poland's status and position show that it is a chicken rib for Britain and France, and the purpose of supporting Poland at the beginning was only to balance the Soviet Union and the Czech principality, but with the rise of the Soviet Union, the Czech principality was eager to obtain more territory, and Britain and France could only compromise in the face of such a situation.

Although Britain and France control the current League of Nations, the position of the hegemon of the European continent is not Britain and France, and they are not as good as the Czech principality, after all, the current Czech principality is a well-deserved hegemon in Eastern Europe, if it were not for the joint containment of Britain and France, Austria, the Soviet Union, and Romania at this time were swept away one by one.
