A few days later, the menacing Duke Nuches finally officially withdrew his troops, and as one of the fortresses that many people thought was most likely to be captured in this war, Duke Griffiths, who successfully held it at this time, was also famous, praised by the people of the Holy Falcon Alliance, and some even believed that the battle that took place here may be the most outstanding front-line army in the battle between the alliance and the Saranca Empire.

And in this snowflake-like praise and congratulatory message, the veteran Duke Griffitz is also as modest as ever, in addition to saying in public many times that this battle is the credit of the entire fortress soldiers, but also to some noble lords' congratulatory letters in person, for fear of missing one or two, making people feel that they are arrogant.

However, on this day, when he was just halfway through his reply, he suddenly stood up, didn't care about the ink sliding on the table, glared at his adjutant and asked loudly: "You~ What did you just say?" Prince Terryth's legion is still fighting? ”

Although he was taken aback by the attitude of this duke, at this time, the adjutant also nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, my lord, I received a reply from Lord Li Ying's outpost in the morning, and I sent it after sorting it out, and from the current intelligence, this Prince of Territh was not only not annihilated, but also ten days ago, when the Duke of Nuches on our side was about to withdraw his troops, his side suddenly turned from fleeing to selective attack, and defeated several legions in one fell swoop, and he was still fighting in the territory of the Saranca Empire at this time."

"This~ What the hell is this guy going to do?" At this moment, the Duke of Griffiths suddenly turned from surprise to calm, and after a long time, he spoke slowly, but his voice was as soft as his own words.

As Griffith's adjutant for many years, this person is very aware of his lord's expression, and he usually only thinks about something very seriously, so at this time, he is also standing by silently, not daring to disturb in the slightest, as if he is afraid of disturbing the duke's train of thought.

"Eagle's sentinels, where was the last time Prince Terres' legion was discovered?" After a long time, the Duke suddenly looked at the lieutenant and said.

After thinking for a moment, and then taking out the notes from his bosom and looking at them, the adjutant also walked to the map located in the center of the room, and after carefully confirming it, pointed to a place, and said, "My lord! Judging by the last intelligence, the last time the army of this Prince of Terres was found was here"

Coming to the left back side of his adjutant, following his finger, Griffitz suddenly said after looking at it for a long time: "Give Li Ying an order, let him investigate Roaring Island for me as quickly as possible, I want to know if there is any change in the garrison there of this prince of the Khan Rock Empire?" ”

To be able to become an adjutant of a powerful duke, in addition to being clever and capable, this person is also a person who knows the war, at this time, after hearing Griffiths's words, he also asked with a little surprise in his eyes: "What do you mean, do you suspect that they want to attack Aimutu City?" ”

"This can't be, Aimutu City is a military city of the Saranka Empire in the shallow sea area" Seeing Duke Griffith's acquiescence, the adjutant asked a little puzzled: "Not to mention that it is heavily guarded, and what good is it for them to do so?" ”

Glancing at his lieutenant, Griffitz suddenly sighed and said: "If you can see this step, then you will not still be my lieutenant by now, it seems that I have calculated a lot, and finally underestimated the madness and ambition of this Duke of Terris."

Then he also took a step forward, and after taking the position of the adjutant, he stretched out his hand and said: "According to my order, if he only wants to complete, this person should be in this area, but at this time, he seems to have no choice to counterattack, but the army is unknowingly, close to the eastern coast, which is not conducive to hiding and counterattacking, why is this?" Is it really just random and coincidental? ”

"Do you know why I was able to control him so easily?" After a while, the duke suddenly asked, "Including letting them capture the stronghold of Lyon, which has more than 100,000 mad warriors, and finally asking them to hold on here before the army comes?" ”

Hearing his words at this time, the adjutant couldn't help but answer curiously: "Isn't that because he signed a cooperation contract with our subordinates?" ”

With a disdainful smile, the duke said, "In the face of war, any way of cooperation is just a piece of waste paper, even if we are in the Holy Falcon Alliance, what can we do?" How many people didn't contribute to the last war, haven't you counted it in your heart? And I told him to go there before because he was in a foreign country, except for the people who were all around us, the most important thing was that his baggage and supplies were provided by me, and once I stopped his supplies, he would have to sit and wait."

"And if he takes this Emmutu City, on the one hand, he is equivalent to taking the base of the Saranca Empire to Roaring Island, which can make his forces on Roaring Island safer" At this time, the Duke of Griffitz continued: "Second, if he takes this place, it is equivalent to mastering his own lifeline, and at that time, whether it is a retreat or an attack, including the supply and transfer of materials, he will no longer have to go through our hands, and have his own initiative!" ”

Hearing this, the adjutant also suddenly realized, but in the next moment, he asked with some doubts: "But does he have the strength to take this Aimutu City?" Although it is only a stronghold, it is a military stronghold in Saranka, and in addition to the basic defense, it has more than 400,000 troops stationed in it."

In this regard, this Griffitz shook his head and said: "That is the past, under the battle with our side on all fronts, they do not plan to go to Roaring Island in a short time, after the transfer of troops, there is only half of the troops left at most, if it is in peacetime, even if there are only these 200,000 people, it is impossible to capture here, after all, several military cities of the Saranka Empire are nearby, but at this time, the Saranka Empire is retreating and recuperating on all fronts, if this duke really wants to work hard, there is still a chance to take here"

Hearing Griffiths's analysis, the lieutenant also took a long breath in amazement, and at this time he even thought that if this was the case, then this Prince of Territh might be the only force they took the initiative to attack and occupy the city of the Saranca Empire after this battle.

From being forcibly assigned a mission that was almost sent to death, to becoming the only beneficiary of this war, at this time, the adjutant's heart couldn't help but turn upside down, but in order to save the face of this adult, he had to endure and pretend that he still had some disbelief.

However, as Duke Griffiths analyzed, including carefully checking the location of the army of Prince Territh several times before this, the matter gradually came to light.

But the frustrating thing is that even so, at this time, they clearly know this person's intentions but have no way to intervene, after all, on the other hand, this Prince of Terris is still a collaborator on his own side, and his task is also to help his side fight against the Saranca Empire, so they can't tell him when they are here, don't attack here.

On Li Ran's side, just as the Duke of Griffiths, who was conservative and modest on the outside but actually shrewd and ruthless, expected, in the case of relying on his small and precise troops, he first relied on the opportunity of the retreat of the opponent's army, defeated several legions in a row, and finally cooperated with the Shadow Blade and others who came to rendezvous, and after killing a Saranka legion, he suddenly accelerated and rushed towards this city of Aimutu.

In addition, when they arrived here, the defenders of Roaring Island over there also arrived under the leadership of Zhou Xun and Du Ruhui and others, a full thirty-five large ships, loaded with soldiers from their own side, expanding his siege force to more than 400,000 people.

There were no slogans, no compromises, no persuasion, and not even the slightest hesitation, just when Duke Griffitz was still hesitating to send someone to delay and dissuade him on the grounds of condolences after receiving this specific information, Li Ran's side had already launched a general attack directly with the soldiers, and took it after three days of fierce fighting.

When the news came, the entire Holy Falcon Alliance was a sensation, not to mention the stronghold commanded by Griffiths, and the original revenge of the Saranca Empire was because he was in the middle of a war at this time, for fear of being affected and the whole body was delayed, so that Li Ran temporarily had a stronghold of his own here.

However, at this moment, Li Ran did not stay here for a long time, and after handing over the matter here to Zhou Xun, he also rushed to the fortress with more than 200,000 elite soldiers to return to the commander of Griffiths.

Even if the city government is deep-skinned and thick-skinned, in the case that the place occupied is the stronghold of the Saranca Empire, this Griffiths is embarrassed to ask for it, and even after seeing Li Ran's arrival, this one, who has less than a million soldiers left in the fortress at this time, personally led a group of noble lords out of the city to greet him, and his attitude is not unkind.

And seeing Li Ran's return, especially after learning what he had done, all the noble lords in the fortress at this time no longer dared to despise him, and even some people who were still a little dissatisfied before were extremely respectful at this time.

At this time, these noble lords present finally abandoned the sense of superiority in their hearts and recognized the strength of this prince from Khan Luo, because they knew very well in their hearts that if it were themselves, it would be almost impossible to escape in that situation, not to mention that in the end, they would have taken down an enemy city, and even in the hearts of some people, at this time, they had already compared this Prince of Terres with several of the strongest people on their own side.

On the other hand, what made them so modest and polite was because they all knew that after the prince came back this time, he would definitely mention the reason why he had leaked their identities before and caused the Saranca side to attack on all fronts, and they didn't want to offend this guy with a strong army in his hands at this moment.
