"Hello Marquis, I am Yasor Kent, and I bring you the goodwill and greetings of the head of the Free Council in the Duchy of Luxon, and our Councilor Pomosen is happy to establish a good friendship with you........."

"Lord Marquis, as we Lord Pomoson said, we are brothers in the Free Camp, so we should provide important help for your victory........"

Charles looked at the "free brothers" dressed as turtle farmers in front of him and talked eloquently, and his heart was tired and disgusted.

Who is with you as a "brother in the camp of freedom"? What is the position of head of the Free Council in the Duchy of Luxemble, and is he qualified to enter the gates of my marquis's palace?

And give me help, I'm afraid you didn't come to me for help, right?

Charles turned his head in disgust to look at Bourne and Little Dewar next to him, and Bourne shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know the Pomosen Councilor who had crossed the line.

At the beginning of the crossing, Charles made a little deal with Bourne and others in order to survive in a strange world, which can be regarded as a little unclear relationship with the "Freedom Council", but it is not compatible with the "brothers in the free camp", and the two are not the same at all.

"Lord Marquis, we Councilor Pomoson said that now you are in a difficult situation, Lord Marquis......."

"Wait a minute!"

Charles interrupted Yasol, whose lips were foaming at the water, and asked coldly, "What kind of help can you provide, and what help do you need from me?"

Yasol: "........."

He had expected the Charles to be as stubborn as the nobles, but he didn't expect the Charles to be so direct.

"Lord Marquis, in the Duchy of Lucerne, we can mobilize hundreds of thousands of free brothers, and we can provide any kind of help you need. ”

Charles: "........."

Byrne: ".........."

"You have hundreds of thousands of free brothers?"

"It's true, Lord Marquis!"

"Huh!"

Charles smiled, he now suspected that Congressman Pomosen didn't know how to count.

What is the concept of more than 100,000 people?

This world is not the Great Celestial Empire, and a small city can easily have a population of hundreds of thousands. The land on the continent is vast, but the population is sparse, and the entire Marquis of Lorraine in the Shire is already a very rich place, with a total population of less than 500,000, not to mention the county of Bayonne, which belongs to the natives of the Shire only tens of thousands.

According to the information provided by Cousin Linal, the entire Duchy of Lucerne has only a population of five or six hundred thousand, but the Free Council claims that it can mobilize more than 100,000 people.

"I'm really in a little bit of trouble now!" Charles said with a smile: "The Blue Mountain Pass was captured by the Lucnesians, and I'm now worried about how to take it back, since you have more than 100,000 people, how about retaking the Blue Mountain Pass for me?"

Yasuol was overjoyed in his heart, and said excitedly: "Lord Marquis, we are here for this matter, we can agree on a time to attack, we will create large-scale chaos in the Blue Mountain Pass, and then help you defeat the Blue Mountain Pass........."

"No, no, no, you're mistaken, it's you who laid the Blue Mountain Pass by yourself, not to help us!"

“........”

Yasol looked at Charles in surprise, and secretly scolded in his heart: "If we can defeat the Blue Mountain Pass by ourselves, what do we need to fool you for?

"Lord Marquis, this ....... It can be a little difficult. ”

"Oh, why is that? I know that there are less than 10,000 troops in the Blue Mountain Pass, and you have more than 100,000 troops, so it should be easy to do that, right?"

Yasol's face was suffocated, and he said curtly: "Those are the troops of the Black Oak Legion, the strongest army on the continent, and our free brothers in the Blue Mountain Pass are less than ....... 10,000 ......."

"10,000 people are bullshit, and thousands of people can reach the sky!"

Charles was already a mid-rank hunter, and his observation acumen had been greatly improved, and it was clear from the subtle performance of Yasol's eye movements that he was lying.

"Tell me about your conditions, what do you want?" said Charles, twisting his neck, "I'm tired, I'm impatient, I want to rest."

"We need the Marquis's friendship!"

"Speak human words!"

Yasol: "........."

Little Dewar twisted his head to the side, not wanting Yasol to see the embarrassment on his face, it was really humiliating to be a fool in front of a person like Charles, and at the same time to lose the face of a freelancer. After all, they are all in the name of the Liberal Council, and they themselves are also affected.

Yasol took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, gritted his teeth and said: "We can help the Marquis to win this war, and the Marquis is claiming a piece of land no less than the county as the victor and giving it to our council in return!"

"It's not less than the land of the county, but the county is big and small! how big do you want it to be?" said Charles, who continued to move his neck, and spoke very lightly with an "aristocratic temperament".

"Borin, Enze, Lazier, any of these three places will do. Yasol looked at Charles with some apprehension, hoping to get the answer he expected.

"Hehe! These three places are really good, but they are all north of the Blue Mountain Pass, and now the Blue Mountain Pass has not been broken! It's too unrealistic to talk about this, let's talk about the Blue Mountain Pass!"

Charles smiled playfully and raised a finger, "I'll give you a thousand louis, show me your true strength, and then we'll talk about cooperation." ”

“.........”

Yasol was stunned, his face suddenly swollen red, "A thousand gold Louis, Lord Marquis, this is an insult to us, this is an insult to the millions of soldiers of our Free Council!"

The smile on Charles's face retracted, and he said lightly, "If you really have millions of warriors, do you still need to ask for my help?" Put away your ridiculous lies and do something real to win the respect of others." ”

Yasol's face turned bloody, only this time not out of anger, but out of shame.

"What kind of strength does the Marquis want to see?" Yasol felt that when he said this, he had lost the initiative to cooperate with Shire.

"Two hours!"

Charles stretched out two fingers and said indifferently: "You can get my initial trust and a thousand gold louis by creating a total chaos in the Blue Mountain Pass for two hours, remember, it is a total chaos, such as arson, we must be able to see it here, if you make trouble, you must mobilize all the people, don't deceive me with false lies, we nobles have been intriguing with each other for thousands of years, and we are scheming, please dig your grave for yourself first." ”

"Two hours, yes! Tonight!"

Yasol's eyes lit up and he nodded affirmatively in agreement.

"Dewar, give this Mr. Yasol a deposit of one hundred louis first!"

Little Dewar hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth to say something, but finally went out and got a money bag and handed it to Yasol.

"Dewar, are you trying to say something?"

After Azor left, Charles smiled and asked Dewar if he really wanted to raise the hard-working boy and corrupt him from an illusory "freelancer" into his loyal lackey.

"My lord, a thousand gold Louis can buy a lot of food, and that Yasol only needs to set a fire to get that large sum of money......."

"You're wrong Dewar," Charles said with satisfaction, looking at little Dewar with some pain, "If they can keep the fire on for two hours, I should really consider working with them." ”

...........

...........

"My lord, we should gather our troops, if there is really a total chaos in the Blue Mountain Pass tonight, we must be prepared enough to take the Blue Mountain Pass. After dinner, Byrne and Dewar came to Charles and asked if they were ready to attack.

Although Byrne and Dewar are the guards under Charles, they belong to the establishment of the Marquis of Lorraine, and they do not hold key military positions in the Lorraine Legion, so they cannot directly mobilize the soldiers of the Lorraine Legion to prepare for battle.

"Dewar, you go and inform the commanders and counselors of the 1st to 5th Battalions to come to the meeting, don't alarm the rest of the people, the Lucers must have scouts and spies nearby, too large a military operation will alarm the defenders of the Blue Mountain Pass, and make your free brothers' actions more dangerous tonight. ”

Byrne said solemnly: "My lord, the strength of five battalions is not enough to capture the Blue Mountain Pass......."

"You're right, but five battalions of men are enough to attack under the walls of the Blue Mountain Pass, and if the Blue Mountain Pass can really be chaotic for two hours, our next ten battalions can also complete the battle preparations. ”

Byrne pondered for a moment and nodded silently.

He had served in the army, and later served as a mercenary, and had participated in countless wars, large and small, and had a wealth of combat experience, so he couldn't find fault with Charles' tactical analysis at this time, but he always felt that Charles didn't seem to pay much attention to tonight's operation.

An hour later, Charles had five infantry battalions ready for a quick march to wait in the camp, and he took two hundred cavalry to make a circle to a position five or six miles away from the Blue Mountain Pass.

This is already the edge of the Luxon Black Oak Legion's cordon, and if you get any closer, the two sides will be fired.

The Blue Mountain Pass was originally established to defend against the barbarian peoples in the north, and the main direction of various fortifications was the north, and the city wall of Lorraine facing the south was not as high as the north wall, and there was no protruding fortress fortification, so the Black Oak Legion immediately repaired the simple fortifications under the pass after occupying the Blue Mountain Pass, and stationed at least a thousand elite Lucerne warriors, just to prevent the Lorraine Legion from quickly breaking through to the bottom of the city wall, and also had the duty of expelling the Lorraine scouts.

Seeing that the young officers following him were all stiff-faced, Charles smiled lightly: "Don't be nervous, tonight's main thing is to let you come out to feel the atmosphere of the war, look at the military camp of these Lucnes in front, and think about how to fight to the top of the Blue Mountain Pass if you lead the troops yourself, don't be restrained! ”

The commander of the first battalion of the Lorraine Legion, the humble young man Neo Grifett, straightened his broad chest and said confidently: "Legion Commander, as long as you give me two hundred more pairs, no, one hundred pairs of precision forging armor from the royal workshop, I can attack under the gate of the Blue Mountain Pass, plant explosives and open the gate for him." ”

"Two hundred pairs of precision-forged armor from the royal family's workshop, why don't you say that you will be given a hundred cannons to flatten the Lucerne military camp in front?"

The commander of the third battalion of the Lorraine Legion, Passel Dannet, who has always regarded himself as a smart scholar, muttered a sentence beside him, and his voice was not loud or small enough for a few colleagues to hear, everyone was a young knight who had changed his military uniform and was promoted, and he looked kind on weekdays, but in private he was actually competing with each other.

But unexpectedly, the young man really did his homework this time, he pointed to the vague shadow of the Blue Mountain Pass in the dark night and said: "The artillery is not easy to use here, I came out at noon today to see it, there are at least six fortress guns on the Blue Mountain Pass, they have the advantage of gun position, the firing range can reach three or four thousand meters away, it is difficult for our artillery to deploy positions under their threat." ”

"Why don't we gather the heavily armored men in our respective battalions and quickly make contact with the Lucers in the dark night, so that the fortress cannons on the Blue Mountain Pass are useless?"

"That's a good idea, if there are dozens of new grenades of that type, it shouldn't be difficult to attack under the city walls, but the difficult thing is how to break through the defense at the city gate and plant explosives, the Black Oak Legion has participated in the siege of Huasha City on the Eastern Front, and it will not be unguarded against this. ”

"How about we pick elite fighters to travel lightly.........?

A few young battalion commanders began to discuss one by one, and all kinds of plans that sounded ridiculous and made sense were put forward one by one, and one by one they were overthrown, causing Byrne, Lund, and others next to them to roll their eyes for a while.

"What a bunch of good boys! I can be the commander of five hundred elite soldiers, if it were me, ........"

"Sir, there's a fire up there!"

Brut suddenly shouted, and everyone's eyes were focused on the Blue Mountain Pass in the distance, and sure enough, they found an obvious firelight.

The flames spread quickly, and there were multiple ignition points, accompanied by fierce shouting, and it was clear that Yasuor had really started to cause chaos, not a fire at the pass.

"Dewar, start the clock!"

Dewar immediately took out a delicate pocket watch from his arms, opened the dial and began to time seriously, although he hated the lying Yasol, but in his heart he also hoped that they could last two hours.

Every freelancer has his or her own experience of suffering, and they have all burst out of enthusiasm for their ideals, but most of them have only gained disappointment, and eventually become numb or greedy.

"Bell"

The loud bells rang throughout the Blue Mountain Pass area, and countless torches lit up on the city walls, converging into more than a dozen fire dragons to clash back and forth within the pass, each conflict causing a large number of screams.

The defensive position south of the Blue Mountain Pass was also lit up with a large amount of fire, the infantry soldiers quickly rushed up the wooden fence, and the cavalry also began to prepare for armor piercing, obviously a well-trained elite force.

The shouts of killing on the Blue Mountain Pass gradually subsided, and the firelight slowly began to weaken, all phenomena showed that the actions of Yasuol and the others had failed.

"Dewar, how long have they held out?"

"II...... Twenty-three minutes!" Dewar counted three times in a row before he couldn't bear to say it.

"Twenty-three minutes?"

Charles said coldly: "You remember, a war-soaked main battle legion is by no means something that can be shaken by unorganized and undisciplined farmers, if they can create chaos for two hours tonight, then either they really have tens of thousands of people, or the Black Oak Legion is an empty shell. ”
