Chapter 249 Whether to pursue or not
All night, Malone has been performing the resurrection technique, and since he has already done it, he will try to get it all at once.
Until dawn, although everyone could not be resurrected, there was not much left, and the paladins under him were able to solve it.
Since these paladins have been cultivated, they have experienced many battles, and their strength has improved a lot, and their specialized resurrection techniques have been used many times, and they have also gained a lot of comprehension, which has greatly improved their efficiency.
If the battle scene is not big, it doesn't even need to be done by Ma Long, and they can handle it.
Now I am also learning other related skills, and I want to make up for the missing homework and try to make up for my own shortcomings.
The sun is high in the sky, and it is not too early.
Everyone stood guard on the city wall for a short time, but they couldn't wait for the orcs to attack.
This is true not only of the southern city, but also of several other walls.
"What's going on?"
Marlon walked up to the city wall and looked with all his eyes, only to see that the orc camp in the distance was empty, and there was no one.
"It's ......" he had something in mind, but it needed to be confirmed.
"Send two scouts to take a look!" Turning his head, he gave orders to the knights who were guarding him.
"Ride the ......" two knights out of the city on horseback and go straight to the orc camp.
After a short time, the scout returned, reporting, "The orcs have retreated overnight. ”
"Retreated?"
Ma Long secretly said in his heart: "That's really the case! ”
He had already thought that the orcs were acting strangely.
Combined with the current situation, I'm afraid that the elves have hit their rear.
"Go, pass on the news, and make everyone happy!" Marlon commanded with a smile. Either way, it's always a good thing!
"Yes!" The knight said yes loudly, and with a smile on his face, he ran down merrily.
"The orcs retreated......"
"We won!"
In a short period of time, the voice spread all over the south of the city, and then the whole city was lively.
The whole city was filled with cheers!
The feeling of relief that everyone had finally won.
Thinking of how many people have died and how much land has been lost since the orc invasion, the enemy army once invaded the royal city, resulting in the almost annihilation of the country and the clan!
And now it's finally gone!
Many people don't know why, but it's good to be happy now.
In the palace, several big people listened to the report below, the outside world faintly cheered, and there were smiles on their faces that they hadn't seen for many days.
The queen immediately ordered everyone to be exempted from taxes for two years as a celebration!
The whole city celebrates, the whole country rejoices, and we finally beat the orcs back!
Although the real insiders understand that the orcs retreat, I am afraid that the reason for the elves is most, but they will not tell the people below.
Doesn't that make you seem incompetent? Naturally, you can't say that!
"With the cooperation of our allies, we managed to repel the enemy." That's a lot better......
It will take a little time for the news to reach other places, but the royal city has begun to take stock after the battle, and discuss whether to pursue the orcs.
In the main hall of the royal palace, the queen sits on a high position.
There are ministers and nobles from all over the world, and Ma Longzi is also among them.
"The main force of the orcs is still there, and pursuing it now is just to increase the loss." A minister spoke.
"That's true, the war has just ended, and now it's time to resume production, and it's not appropriate to use the sword again." Another nobleman spoke, apparently thinking the same thing as the previous one.
"But what about our allies, we have to give an explanation to the elves." It was Wood who spoke, and the real soldier was more innocent.
"Allies...... Elves also have their own interests, and helping us is also helping themselves, so it's not a big deal......"
"You are shameless, how can you say such a thing......"
Before the minister could finish speaking, he was interrupted, and the general pointed at his nose and cursed.
For a while, the chaos in the hall was even better, and Ma Long pouted in the corner of the side, watching this farce boredly.
"Enough!" The queen slapped the armrest and stopped the quarrel below!
Rubbing her forehead with a headache, she hadn't been able to sleep well for many days, and said very tiredly: "The southward support is definitely going to go, and we can't make our allies chill, but how to support, there must be an explanation." ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" General Wood saluted the queen, opened his mouth to praise, and said, "No matter what, the elves have solved a big problem for us after all, and this is beyond doubt.
"You can't do anything that is not repaid, if so, if there is any situation in the future, you may not even be able to find allies."
"But this matter of support, but it can't be decided arbitrarily like this, I think we should take an elite knight, the number should not be too much, we must transfer flexibly, what is the situation at that time, there is also a choice between fighting or withdrawing."
"Aiqing's words are very reasonable." The queen nodded in response, "There are ideal candidates and troops." ”
Wood looked at Marlon and said, "The knights under the command of Marquis Marquis Marlon are powerful and have outstanding achievements, so they are the best choice!" ”
In the main hall, everyone's eyes fell on Ma Long.
It was supposed to be time for him to speak, but he just didn't realize that the old god was standing there.
Ma Long can see it, and these people have discussed it to calculate themselves.
As soon as the orc retreated, he began to do something to his own people, so he would not be fooled.
If it was a few years ago, he naturally couldn't see the calculations in this, but people will grow, and after seeing more, he can see it clearly now!
The alliance with the elves was his personal participation, and he should have gone to this support because of reason, but he was not forced to go in such a daze.
In the main hall, a group of people had piercing eyes, but they couldn't let Ma Long lose any hair.
Just looking up at the top of the temple, it seems to be distracted!
Seeing that she was speechless for a long time, as if she hadn't heard, the queen couldn't help asking, "What does Marquis Marlon think?" ”
"Heh......" he replied, "Well said! It's just that my Black Stone led the army in a series of battles, and now the wounded are dying, even if they are still alive, they are tired, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as before, and they are indeed powerless! ”
"This ......" The queen looked at the courtiers below with some embarrassment, hoping that someone would come up with an idea.
"The Marquis is not right to say that." It was the minister who stood up and said: "Who doesn't know that your Black Stone Leader army is not only strong in combat, but also has a lot of paladins, and the combat effectiveness must be intact, and this is the time for the kingdom to employ people......
"I said, I'm tired!" Ma Long said coldly, directly interrupting the other party's speech, and at the same time turned his head to look at this guy who didn't know whether to live or die.
With his current strength and position, even the royal family does not dare to be too persecuted and say anything ugly.
This guy doesn't know who he has received, so he has to go against himself.
"That's the Chancellor of the Exchequer." Beside him, the Archbishop of Nottington, who was the representative of the temple, whispered to Marlon: "An Lek's people. ”
Marlon nodded to the archbishop vaguely to express his gratitude. 2k reading web
