Chapter 545: Cecil retreats

King Rex looked at Clifford Archpriest suspiciously, he knew that Clifford Archpriest and Cecil had done the right thing more than once, and if he could have a trick to kill Cecil, he would have used it a long time ago, but now he has been beaten by Cecil all over the ground and embarrassed, it is hard to imagine that he will have any unused tricks.

"Don't worry, it's not just me this time, Count Cecil's strength has caused dissatisfaction among many people, and many people are willing to join forces with me to suppress him, the crystal ball is not only for you to show King Rex, I will also show people on this continent who can have the ability to suppress him, these strong people should all feel the strong threat of Cecil, I think as long as there is one person left, then our strength is enough to make him disappear." I'm going to keep in touch about this until Cecil, the bastard, falls," Archpriest Clifford's tone was calm, but there was a hint of resentment in his words.

King Rex is not surprised by this, if he wants to deal with Cecil just because he is afraid of his strength, then Clifford Archpriest is a naked hatred, this Clifford Archpriest is now in the biggest crisis of his life, and this crisis is officially created by Cecil's growth step by step, these two people can be described as a deep hatred, compared to himself Clifford Archpriest is indeed more eager to kill Cecil, whether it is interests, dignity or his own hatred, Archpriest Clifford was afraid that he wanted to kill Cecil a hundred times more than he did. So King Rex doesn't need to worry about whether he needs to worry about it or not. It's just that there are still doubts about whether he can do it.

Compared to these two people, Cecil can now be said to be proud of the spring breeze, the resources of Mancini Province are really rich, especially the population, although the people here used to live under the rule of the Iruk Empire, but those small lords were all beaten away by Cecil, Cecil easily won the support of the people, the method is very simple, is to reduce the land rent by 50%, this trick is very useful no matter what era, but only Cecil can use it like a rich man, The fortune he made in Dicko Morgan's castle was enough for Cecil to buy hearts and minds without thinking about money.

But Cecil didn't intend to stay here, now that he had passed the recent battle, Cecil was very confident in his strength, and now that he had gone deep into the hinterland of the Arrow Empire, with spies to report, there were no forces around him that could pose a threat to him. Cecil thought that it was very likely that the Iruk Empire had gathered a large number of troops to defend the imperial capital, but Cecil did not want to attack the imperial capital at all, but wanted to send troops and horses to attack from all sides and capture as much territory as possible, so that the war could also end as soon as possible.

Yes, ending the war as soon as possible is what Cecil wants most, Cecil does not have as much ambition as King Rex or Clifford High Priest discussed, and his ambition does not even have that much room to grow, because he also has a big problem - Sandru. Now the shadow of Sandru's death always weighs on his heart like a boulder. All Cecil did was to end the war as quickly as possible so that he could have more room to deal with Sandru.

Just as Cecil was about to send troops around to sweep the territory of the El Luk Empire, a huge dragon eagle flew over from the south, and Cecil knew at a glance that it was sent by the royal capital Ishara City, and now only the Kingdom of Thororan has such a huge dragon eagle. Cecil hurriedly greeted him, and at this time, the dragon eagle knight above the dragon eagle also spotted Cecil and quickly landed. Cecil and the other generals hurriedly surrounded him. The Dragon Eagle Knight stopped and hurriedly got off the Dragon Eagle and handed the king's letter to Cecil.

This was, of course, an order from King Rex to Cecil to stop the march, saying that the Elder Empire had entered into a truce with the Thorolan Empire, and that the Elder Empire had lost the war, and not only returned Prince Lux, whom they had provided refuge, but also ceded the territory of the three provinces. King Rex ordered all the generals on the front line to halt their marches, withdraw their troops to their positions at the outbreak of the war, and stand by in place.

Cecil's subordinates blew up at that time, and they all scolded King Rex, the current war situation is very good, since the defeat of the El Luk Empire, it is equivalent to the middle door wide open, Cecil's mistake can almost sweep most of the El Luk Empire, and now everyone is extremely confident in Cecil's combat effectiveness, almost all the personnel are full of confidence, and they are determined to make immortal achievements, and it is not impossible to destroy the El Luk Empire in a direct war, Those ambitious people among the generals were already thinking about whether they could let Cecil break away from the kingdom and occupy a large part of the territory of the Elok Empire and then stand on their own, but they didn't expect to wait for such a result, the three provinces obtained by the Elok Empire through the contract are all barren areas, and the three provinces together are not as large as the territory of the Mancini Province. Obvious loss-making trade.

The soldiers were all of a sudden, and they asked Cecil to ignore His Majesty's peace treaty, continue to march into the army, and fully occupy the Iruk Empire, because they couldn't figure out what Cecil meant, they didn't dare to directly say the words that let Cecil rebel and stand on his own, but they just kept repeating and repeatedly emphasizing to Cecil that it was a pity to withdraw the troops now, and now it should be appropriate to chase after the poor and continue to fight against the Elok Empire, as long as they have the results of the war, then His Majesty the King will definitely not blame them, and even reward them, It would be a shame to continue marching.

But Cecil didn't pay attention to these voices, and immediately gave up all the occupied territory and ordered the whole army to start withdrawing, he himself is not an ambitious person, if it was in peacetime, he would also feel very sorry that he was forcibly ordered to withdraw for the good situation, but now he has this big thing in his heart to deal with Sandru, for these emperors between the world, Cecil really didn't take it to heart, and now when he is competing for time with Sandru, The sooner the war was over, and he would have had a little more time to inquire about the whereabouts of the other components of the Dawn Light. Now Cecil only has one enemy in his eyes, and he doesn't pay too much attention to the rest, dealing with Sandru is a big deal for the headlights, and the rest can't pose any threat to himself at all, this is how much danger you are attributed to strength. determines your horizons and ceilings.
