Zheng Ming's timely appearance was tantamount to a shot in the arm, bringing hope to the people in the city. Upon hearing the news of the imminent reinforcements, the lifeless soldiers and civilians of the fortress rekindled their fighting spirit and actively launched a defense.

Players are also arriving. Zheng Ming relied on the advantage of being able to see the player's ID, and after eliminating several spies who were fishing in troubled waters, he led them into a defense battle.

In the next ten days, everyone held the city, and with the help of Zheng Ming's leadership and players, they wounded the golden dragon Menggard and blocked several attacks by Ronan Lane's coalition forces.

And it was at this moment that the battle report from the top of the snowy mountain finally reached the front line.

After Zheng Ming left, the three sides fought a fierce battle. In the end, the side of the Adler kingdom, led by Adam, was victorious.

On that day, the two strong men on the top of the snow-capped mountain, Ronan and Ryan, were all left behind by Adam. Even Cesar, the king of Ronan, was not spared.

After leading his troops to annihilate the two teams of Ronan Lane who were hiding in the territory of Dorne, near the snowy mountains, and used for support, Adam took advantage of the situation to raise troops and invaded the neighboring kingdom of Lane.

And on the side of the Celtic Kingdom, there are also commanders who have the same ideas as Zheng Ming. Jaylander, who had received the news many days ago, led the Red Dragon Legion and several armies that had come to support, abandoned the border of support, turned around and went straight to the territory of the Ronan Kingdom.

By the time the Boulder Castle received the battle report, Jayland had already teamed up with the red dragon Ralton and his lord Einzfil to capture several cities that were in fear of the king's death with lightning speed, and plunged into the depths of the Ronan Kingdom.

As Zheng Ming expected, after receiving news from the territory again, the front-line soldiers of Ronan and Lane's coalition army fell into a brief chaos, and then showed signs of withdrawal.

"My lord, the enemy army is about to evacuate, I suggest going out of the city to chase and kill."

"Are you crazy? Have you forgotten how we suffered an ambush last time and suffered heavy losses? ”

In the knights' meeting, Arthur, who was sitting on the main seat, heard the dispute among the knight generals below, remembered his previous fiasco, and his face became a little unnatural.

"No, you don't. We'll just stay here. ”

Zheng Ming's flat but confident voice interrupted their argument. However, unlike the conservatives who breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, those main battle factions who held their breath could not be persuaded by just one or two sentences.

"Shadow of the Throne, do you want to watch them flee back to the realm? Now is the best chance, and once they have recovered from the news of the loss of the King and the loss of the Dragon Knight, it will not be so easy for us to defeat them. ”

"That's right. Now is the best time to take advantage of their internal turmoil and unstable military morale, and we should fight back. ”

Obviously, most people saw the fighters at this time, so the main battle faction occupied the majority, and for a while, the voices of persuasion, suggestions, and invitations to fight were endless.

"Alright. I had expected that. What do you think my dragon and lion legion is doing now? ”

Zheng Ming shrugged helplessly and told the truth.

"What? Didn't you say before that reinforcements would arrive soon? ”

"Could it be that those reinforcements were sent by you to block their rear?"

"Or else? I told me that there will be no more reinforcements except for me and the dozens of people, and you can still defend the city well? ”

Zheng Ming's casual rhetorical question caused a brief silence in the meeting hall. Although it may seem like his decision was prescient now, what if?

What if the other party did not choose to evacuate, but instead attacked the city in a desperate way?

Your Shadow of the Throne is so powerful that you may be able to break through again with an equally powerful king, just like when the king was led into the trap before, but what about us generals?

Could it be that Lady Luck will visit us again and again so that we can be lucky to escape?

Thinking that the other party disregarded the safety of himself and others and commanded reinforcements to cut off without authorization, everyone present was secretly dissatisfied.

Seeing that almost instantly, the undercurrent in the council hall was turbulent, and the knights and generals below frequently intertwined their eyes, and Arthur, as the king, spoke up.

"I'm sure you've seen it from the war reports. Naruto had just escaped from the combined siege of the other three kingdoms when he was far away from the territory of the Dornes before he arrived to support us. So he knew the information on the side of the snow mountain for a long time, and his judgment was also formed based on this. The current situation fully shows that his judgment is the most accurate. ”

Zheng Ming knew that Arthur was playing a round for himself and eliminating his bad impression in the hearts of everyone. Although he felt that the final victory would be enough to erase all the resentment that was left behind, Arthur's actions still raised a sweet mood in him.

"To sum up, now we just need to recharge our energy in Boulder Fort and wait for good news. Then find the right opportunity to attack and win the war. ”

In the midst of chuckling, Zheng Ming left a sentence quite arrogantly, nodded at Arthur, and left his seat. The players who stood silently behind him also followed in his footsteps one after another.

"No one in sight! He was just too arrogant. ”

"yes. He doesn't have you in his eyes at all, King. ”

"Hmph, there is no aristocratic etiquette at all. It is worthy of the shadow of the throne mingling with the commoners. ”

In the midst of the dissatisfaction and slander that rang out one after another, an untimely voice sounded.

"But he does have the capital that no one can see. You must know that he escaped under the siege of the other three kingdoms. It's impossible to do it with any one person or Dragon, right? After this battle, it can be said that his identity as the strongest person in the continent can be regarded as solid. ”

The weak voice silenced everyone in the council hall for a moment again, and then a slightly weak voice sounded.

"That'...... So what? A reckless man who can only fight. Isn't it up to us to maintain the peace and stability of the Kingdom? Without us, the kingdom would have been littered with corpses. ”

"But without his several reigns, we'd have been covered with corpses under the butcher's knives of the Dorns."

Arthur, who was sitting on the main seat, heard the argument about Zheng Ming below, and pinched his eyebrows with a headache. He knew that these people below were deliberately speaking to himself.

"It seems that the growing power and strength of Ming have already made them feel terrified."

Listening to the words that were vaguely provoking the relationship between himself and Zheng Ming, Arthur looked out the window at a tender green leaf that was faintly visible.

On the other side, he cooperated with Zheng Ming to walk on the street "floating like a dream", looking at Zheng Ming's leisurely back, and couldn't help asking.

"My lord, won't this bury a hidden danger?"

Zheng Ming turned his head when he heard this, and looked at this player who obviously looked familiar, but he and Zax were like two people. Of course, he knew what the other party was trying to say.

"It's certain that you will leave a little bit of mustard. But when you win a big victory, these grievances and mustards will turn into deeper awe. Of course, there are ways to completely remove the mustard, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the return is not proportional to the effort at all. I'm not going to be the king, and I'm going to bother to buy them for what? It's better to keep yourself strong. The matter of buying people's hearts will give the king a headache. ”

Looking at Zheng Ming's back after waving his hand to signal that he didn't have to follow, he left alone, and stood for a long time.

"Hehe, interesting, interesting. That's the beauty of the world. ”

In the surprised eyes of the pedestrians, the laughter of "floating like a dream" became louder and louder, and a happy expression appeared on his face.
