Chapter 1130: The Five Dukes
If the Governor of Grenada's capital was here at this moment, he might have found that this internal banquet held by the enemy leader actually contained more than a dozen of his own noble domains. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
And if other players see this scene, they will know better that except for the five native lords, most of the others here are players like themselves, including golden-eyed foreigners, black-scaled and yellow-skinned Asians, and even two dark-skinned Africans.
Although they belong to different countries and belong to different legions and enterprises, they are now all nobles of Grenada, among which the highest title is Ken of the English Gentleman's Legion and another native earl, and at this moment the former leads the most personnel, in addition to Ken himself, who is the commander of the legion, including, Isidore and Lance are all here.
Unlike the others who only had secret contact with Li Ran, hoping to get some benefits from him, because of the matter of Duke Nizabeth, Ken and they have now been recognized as treason by the Grenada Empire, so after letting the others leave the campaign map temporarily, several of their main characters stayed here.
"I really want to thank you all this time, otherwise my wounded soldiers, including those prisoners of supplies, would not have been able to cross the border with a loss of only two percent," Li Ran raised his glass to everyone and said to everyone at this time.
Even if they are already on this boat, these people don't care, in fact, except for players like Li Ran, including the five local city lords, and this kind of wartime defection to the enemy has often happened in the past and will not be less in the future, not only players.
So after hearing Li Ran say this, among the people present, the earl with the highest title among the local players also said boldly: "Lord Territh is polite, I will make it clear with my human nature, we are not like those guys who were imprisoned by you, there is either this duke behind them or the backer of that prince, even if you raze their territory, they can go back and find someone to rebuild in a different place, and if you razed our city in the first place, Even if we people have a knighthood, we are not, not to mention that you didn't let us do things in vain, just rushing at you is much more generous than those guys in the capital."
Hearing what the earl said, several other local nobles or envoys also nodded their heads again and again, and spoke out about what happened before, if they were only forced to cooperate with them because they were afraid that their territory would be occupied by them, and they wanted to make some benefits, but at this time, with the rout of the coalition army, their lives were still in the hands of this person.
After seeing this scene, several players present also sighed secretly, although their identities were different from these local players, but the situation was the same as what the earl said.
But even if it is to share the fruits of victory, when Li Ran was drinking and laughing with everyone, he also let Zhang Debiao and others take out a lot of good things in one go, including equipment treasures and all kinds of military talismans, and more of them were the most direct gold coins distributed to everyone.
And after getting these benefits, plus drinking some wine, at this time, a local viscount also smiled and said to Li Ran: "My lord, in fact, to tell the truth, when I saw the materials and wounded people you asked me to transport, I was really moved for a moment, and now I think about it, fortunately, I didn't swallow it privately at that time, otherwise I would have been able to get such a generous gift from you now."
Hearing his words, everyone present, including Li Ran, also laughed, and the local earl even said jokingly: "Fortunately, your kid didn't have the guts, otherwise I wouldn't have known where I was lying now, but I know that every time I transport, the prince sends someone to follow, although I can't find anyone, but my motorcycle hounds are the most famous for their sense of smell, and I can feel it from their reactions."
Li Ran also smiled and didn't explain, he knew that the motorcycle hounds were famous for their sense of smell, but those were just middle-level creatures, and there was no threat to the female warriors at all.
And after getting their respective benefits, these people also took advantage of the night to leave here, but they were still gathering and laughing just now, but the moment they walked out of the door, everyone seemed to know each other at all, and they left here without even saying hello.
Although they were forced, they dared to do this kind of thing, except that this was the border and far away from the capital, they were not afraid that the other party would expose their old bottoms, because to do so would be impossible to get along with themselves, but from the moment they left here, they had to keep their distance, in case the eyes and scouts of the imperial capital would find out.
As for whether someone will secretly poison the other party in the future to prevent future troubles, it depends on their respective development opportunities, but one thing they believe is that after this battle, the capital will definitely not be able to recover within a few years, so they don't dare to cause civil strife casually, so no matter what, they have been stable in the past few years or even decades, and as long as they develop well, with a long time and no substantial evidence, I believe that the capital side will not be able to do anything with them even if it is found out.
And after sending these people away, including those few player lords, only Li Ran and his party and Ken and others from the Gentleman Legion were left here at this time, but the latter's expression at this time was somewhat embarrassed and helpless.
Although they also found out afterwards that they were still in the hands of this guy at that time, without them, at the critical time when the two sides were preparing for a war, they suddenly rebelled and attacked the rear of Duke Nizabeth, causing so much chaos, these Chinese could not defeat the joint forces of the military chief Sodros and Duke Nizabeth alone.
And even if they can finally rely on the rank advantage of their forces to break through successfully, at most they will only retreat to the Erosion Land, and they will be considered a great achievement to stand on the side of the Duke of Nizabeth there, and maybe they will get another chance to advance.
But at this moment, even if they know this, not only can they not go to the other party to ask and argue, but they even have to help them in the later stage, including transporting the wounded and materials and inquiring about the situation, etc., in the hope that after the victory, their side can get a place to stay.
Once upon a time, how could their famous gentry army fall to such a point of looking at people's eyes, but this is war, and its cruelty is sometimes not only reflected in the bloody battlefield, so at this time, they will not let the grumpy Leopold come, but stand here to endure the strange eyes of those people just now, quietly waiting for the attitude of these Chinese.
At this time, Li Ran also looked at them and asked, "Head Ken, there is something I want to ask, why didn't I see those people from the Lotte Group this time?" ”
Although the other party still did not mention how to arrange their affairs, but at this time Ken had to answer: "They did develop in this area before, but then for some reason, suddenly there are many more high-level troops If their strength has increased greatly, so the development is very fast, but since here two years ago, they went to the north to develop, and now the head of the park is also an earl, but it is rumored that he is one of the two marquis and seven earls attached to the Duke of De Ravis, and his strength is far above us."
"I didn't expect them to develop well" Hearing this, Li Ran couldn't help but say curiously: "As for Duke De Levis?" Is it the strongest of the five dukes of Grenada? ”
In this regard, Ken nodded and said: "It is this person, the five major dukes of the empire, Bandak, Bezanis, Toldi, Brynchev and De Levis, the first two of which you have already seen, the other three, Duke Toldi has been guarding the most dangerous area of the Erosion Land in the west, about two thousand kilometers away, and is also the next most likely opponent to be summoned by the empire, while Brinchev and Duke Delevis are stationed in the north, the purpose of which is not only to guard the northern barbarians, but also to guard against the Naotian Empire"
Speaking of this, the man paused for a moment, and after looking at Li Ran, he continued: "And among these two, Bryenchov, as a mage, stays in his own Fata all the year round and rarely goes out, while the Acropolis of Delevis is the most powerful in perennial combat because it is closest to the barbarian region in the north, and some people even say that his troops are not under the capital, but he is very loyal to the empire, because after several generations of union, his family has long been connected with the royal family, including the current queen is also from their family, So the current king and this Duke of Deleves are still uncles and nephews."
Obviously, these things have been investigated before this, but it can be regarded as a confirmation from Ken's mouth, and at this time, Li Ran thought about it and said with a smile: "We may have to be here for a while, if you don't mind, then please help me mind the situation here, including the deeds of these three dukes and some other city lords."
Ken naturally has no problem with Li Ran's request, but they have been here for a while, and they originally wanted to show their skills here, so they also put a lot of effort into intelligence collection, and they didn't hide it at this time.
After more than an hour like this, as Li Ran learned more about this Grenada, he also looked at Ken after a glance at them and said, "I can guess some of your thoughts now, but isn't war like this?" I hope you don't mind, and thank you for your help during this time, the reason why I didn't talk about you like everyone else just now, I am also thinking about how to make you have a better development, now I give you two choices, as for how to choose, I hope you will give me an answer tomorrow morning"
"Please say" Hearing this Chinese suddenly say this, Kenn was shocked in his heart, and after looking at and the others, he turned to look at Li Ran and said solemnly.
