Chapter 894: Modrek Thoughts
Seeing that Mordrak's line was about to collapse, Barak personally joined the battle with his personal guards.
Seeing that the Lacatian army was about to be completely defeated, suddenly, another cavalry unit was killed in the west.
The cavalry came very suddenly, and with a swift thunder, it tore a gap in Barak's encirclement and joined the battle.
Under the powerful onslaught of this cavalry, Mordrak finally respited, and he immediately gathered his army, and under the cover of this cavalry, he withdrew from the siege.
Barak was depressed when he saw that the opportunity to encircle Mordrak was lost, as if the meat that had come to his mouth had suddenly been taken away.
Barak knew that he had no ability to eat the other party again, and there was only one chance, and it seemed that the heavens favored Modrak, and the goddess of fate voted for the lucky star to Lacasia, which made the Dogwood tribe lose everything.
He knew that Mordrak would definitely mobilize a large army to avenge this battle, and Barak knew that his army could not resist at all, and the only way was to retreat while Mordrak's army had not yet arrived, and take the looted supplies along the way, and cross the vast desert together to the farther east.
After Mordrak left the battlefield, he found that it was the commander of the cavalry division who came to rescue him.
Wren had already fought with Barak before, and he knew that Barak was sinister and cunning, and he was afraid that Modlek would fall into Barak's trap, so after a short rest, he immediately rushed to support with a thousand cavalry.
Unexpectedly, it was really as he thought, Mordrac fell into the siege of Barak because of the light enemy.
It's a good thing he arrived just in time, otherwise, Mordrake would have been in danger.
Wren rescued Mordrake at a critical moment and made a great contribution.
However, he did not say a word and did not allow his subordinates to discuss the battle.
Because he knew that as a commander-in-chief, majesty was the most important thing, and if it was known that Mordrak had suffered a defeat at the front, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the morale of the Lacacian army.
As a subordinate, you should share the worries and solve problems for the leader.
After suffering the defeat, Mordrak no longer rashly advanced with the enemy, and joined forces with Rennes's cavalry division, waiting for the arrival of a large army.
Three days later, the large army was assembled, and Mordrak also knew that in these three days, he had almost missed the last chance to catch Barak.
During these three days, Barak will not sit still, he will definitely be able to loot all the supplies that can be looted, and then flee to the vast Gobi Desert.
Even if he sends troops to attack now, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch Barak's shadow.
However, even though he knew that there would be no substantial results, Mordrake still had to give the order to march, mainly to make a gesture that my army of Lakasia was indomitable and would not back down at any time.
After half a month of sweeping, the Lacazian army completely wiped out the remnants of Barak in the central and eastern regions.
The entire Eagle Flying Steppe and dozens of vassal states in the eastern part of the steppe have all submitted to the jurisdiction of Lacasia.
Mordrac opened up trade routes to the east, extending Lacasia's sphere of influence all the way to the west of the Gobi Desert.
At this point, Lacasia has become the most powerful country in the entire West, and the most powerful country in history.
Mordrake's merits have completely surpassed that of his father, Pendereken.
When the good news from the front reached the rear, Pandraken was not only happy, but also thinking about the Zen position.
The Zen throne means handing over the royal power, and from now on, he will hand over all his strength regardless of political affairs.
This is really a bit cruel for an old king who is in the prime of life.
However, Pandreken is not nostalgic, because it is not someone else who wants to meditate, but his own son.
Isn't his son inheriting the throne exactly what he wants to see?
What's more, as a father, when he sees his son better than himself, that feeling is completely indescribable.
The son is stronger than himself, which means that the future of the family is more hopeful, and if the son is not as good as himself, it is the sorrow of life.
The news of Pendereken's request for a Zen position soon reached Mordrak's ears.
When Mordrak heard about it, he was very surprised and firmly disagreed, although he had achieved world-renowned achievements on the battlefield, but he did not want to snatch his father's rights.
He is just to protect the interests of Lacasia, now that Liguria in the east has been fully incorporated into the territory of Lacaxia, and the Eagle Flying Prairie no longer has the power to threaten Lacaxia, and even dozens of vassal states in the east to the desert have also surrendered to the eagle emblem of Lacaxia, it can be said that Lacazia no longer has to worry about survival, it has risen to become a superpower that has attracted the attention of the world.
Mordrake is not in a hurry to snatch power from his father, because the old king Pendraken only has one son, Mordrake, and in the future, after a hundred years of the old king, the whole of Lakasia will be his Modrake's, and he does not need to inherit the throne in such a hurry.
Secondly, compared to inheriting the throne, what worries Mordrake more is the marriage with the elf girl Ayi.
Modrec fell in love with Ji Ran at first sight, and since the night he first met Ji Ran in La Casia, Modrec couldn't help but fall in love with her.
Now that he has made so many efforts, in addition to safeguarding the interests of Lacasia, it is more important to prove to Ji Ran that he is a capable man, and at the same time, he also hopes to use his prestige to convince the nobles and commoners of Lacacia that he is fully capable of breaking the taboo of the race and marrying the elves like the ancient holy kings.
Although in history, there has always been a spread of red faces and troubles, especially for the various frames of elven beauties in ancient times, when people mention elf women, they will always be associated with evil, war and ruin.
In fact, in real history, not all human kings who married elven girls became the last monarchs, and there were also powerful monarchs.
The replacement of the country depends entirely on the monarch and ministers, what does it have to do with women?
It's just that in the patriarchal world, when a monarch commits an irreparable mistake, he often needs to find an innocent woman to take the blame for him.
This is not only a whitewash of the king of the fallen country, but also a kind of rebellious and justified propaganda for the rebels.
Since ancient times, rebels usually have two excuses, one is the side of the Qing monarch, the other is the red face of the country, the side of the Qing monarch, is to kill loyal ministers under the pretext of eliminating the villains around the king, and the red face of the country is to transfer the king's unreasonable way to the woman.
Every founding monarch has another identity, that is, a rebel, in order to rebel for his own reason, therefore, each generation of founding monarchs will spare no effort to exaggerate the theory of red face and disaster to the country, and over time, the naturally beautiful elf girl, as well as the delicate woman among the human beings, have become the existence of the fox spirit in the history books.
