Madara multiplied

Not only that, but in just a month or two, Count Denel had gathered an army of 20,000 men in Pallas, including the Knight of Pallas, and the armies of the mountain people and barbarians, and this kind of extravagance seemed not only to suppress the rebellion, but to demonstrate to those who dared to ridicule him before.

This kind of mobilization ability shows that the Earl is far from being needed, and when he retires, he used to be like a tiger with squinting eyes, and once his eyes are angry, he can still make the entire mountain and forest shake as he did decades ago. Now that the whole of Tonigel is completely under the control of this tiger, most of the rest of the people have begun to gloat and wait to see what will happen to those who dare to whisker the tiger's whiskers.

Griffiin's Knight Captain, Viscount Axel immediately left his office as soon as he got the information, and walked towards the purpose of Her Royal Highness the Princess's study. Later, Sir Kopp saw this scene and followed: "Hey, Lord Knight, I heard the news from the south." ”

Kopp's status in the royal party is actually not high, but he is a person on the side of Master Lewoods, who is the princess's teacher and the chief court mage of Eruin, and his status in the royal party is respected, even the big people who are the leaders of the real power faction have to hang their heads when they see this old man. Axel refused to provoke the other party, so he had to nod his head: "Her Royal Highness the princess is very optimistic about those rebels, but unfortunately this time she will be disappointed, in fact, several adults above are not very supportive of contacting these rebels, it is too risky, so that Lord Denel will end up being a prince." ”

"The princess is actually unwilling to make peace with Archduke Anleke, hey, "she is still a child"

No matter how humble she is outside, but a woman is a woman, and it is inevitable to have some naïve wishes. "Popular science nodded his head" pretended to sigh 1.

Axel glanced at him and replied, "政zhì is 政zhì, the future of the kingdom is more important than anything else, I believe that Her Royal Highness the princess will finally see this." It was the best option for us to conclude the agreement with the Count of Denel, so that Her Royal Highness would have enough weight to negotiate terms with the old fellow of Anlek. ”

"Yes, but I'm worried that Her Royal Highness the princess is obsessed. "Master Axel, I've heard that she has secretly contacted those rebels, and if this evidence is in Denel's possession, we will be passive. ”

"Peace of mind, Master Lewoods, Grand Duke Lantony Lan does not agree with continuing to support those hillbillies in the dark, and the Knights have expressed the same will" Coupled with the current situation, Her Royal Highness will not insist on going her own way. The chief knight replied.

Kopp snickered when he heard this, thinking that Her Royal Highness the princess was much more stubborn than the rumors, not to mention that there was no one to support her. But he is a sleek man, and if he has something in his heart, he will not come out directly" but subtly asked, "What about Lord Overwell?" ”

"He'............" Axel was silent, but the guy he was called "Wolf" had always been rather vague and confused about his thoughts. What's even more troublesome is that Overwell is still the leader of the real power faction, and his mind is not inferior to that of Macaro, who is called a cunning fox. It was precisely because of this man's silence that the voices around the princess were not unanimous.

As long as the sound is not unanimous, there are clear variables. But Axel is not optimistic about the rebels, and in his opinion it is almost child's play to pin the fate of the country on betting on the same behavior, and Kopp also thinks the same way, in fact, most of the people in the royal party have similar ideas.

In their view, "Count Denel, who has real power, is much more reliable than a group of rootless rebels."

It's even a lot more kind.

As for the plans of Her Royal Highness Princess Griffithine, there is some feasibility. But it's a bit too risky. The so-called self-confidence, in the eyes of the aristocracy, is nothing more than the naïve idea of a girl pursuing the so-called "control of her own destiny". They have seen this kind of behavior a lot, and they no longer care about it, but have a look that borders on pity.

The fate of the princess is used for political marriage, since the girl wants to struggle, let her go, as long as it does not affect the overall situation, Yin Axel gave a gesture to Kopp, and after the latter left, he pushed open the wooden door of the princess's study. There were many people in the study, and when he looked up, Overwell, Lewoods, Macarro, and Baal, Count of Violet, almost all the core members of the royal party were all together. The knight was not surprised by this, in fact, since the situation in the south became tense, meetings had been held almost every day.

It's just that the atmosphere in the room is a little oppressive, so dull that it feels abnormal. In such an environment, Viscount Axel could only present the newly obtained information in front of everyone.

Thank you, Master Axel. The princess's crisp voice seemed calm, but for some reason, Axel felt a little guilty at the moment. In fact, Leo Woods is the teacher of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but he is also half of it, and Her Royal Highness's current excellent swordsmanship is derived from his teaching.

"This is the duty of the minister, Your Highness the Princess." Axel replied with his head bowed. When he saw that Princess Griffiin and the others had no intention of looking at the message, he knew in his heart that it seemed that everyone present already knew the news.

He couldn't help but quietly raise his head to look at the calm half-elf princess, today's princess Griffiin was as calm as ever, her beauty seemed to seep out of this temperament, making people feel palpitations. But the girl was rarely silent, her long silver hair reflected in the candlelight as if forming a hazy halo, and she put her hands on her slender knees, pursed her lips, and did not flinch to meet the gaze of someone on the occasion.

"I see, so I'll do as you say

Although it was a compromise, the voice was so decisive that there was no room for retreat. It seems that even if this is the case, it is a decision made by her personally. Seeing such a scene, even the Count of Baal on the side couldn't help but shake his head, how good would it be if this princess was a prince?

However, history has no ifs.

It was imperative to compromise with Count Jean Denel and marry Anlek, and in the minds of every member of the royal party, "those northerners are nothing more than chickens and dogs." Just wait for the ice and snow to melt, "a big war between the north and the south can determine their future status."

The revival of the kingdom seems unstoppable.

It's a perfect result.

"Ahh Hadesh sneezed, "He rubbed his face so that the cold air didn't freeze his face. Although the year has turned, the winter has not shown signs of quieting, but it is getting colder and colder. North of the Griese River, the wooden walls of these forest-like outposts are hung with ice edges, and the wood is frozen so hard that it is indistinguishable from the rocks.

Hadesh placed his gloves on the women's wall and stood on a high watchtower and looked out into the forest, where there had been a cleared wasteland, but it had not been sown since winter. The hired peasants who cultivated here crossed the Zihe River before the winter, and now only soldiers like him are left here. Soldiers, mercenaries, soldiers in castles, garrisons, and knights" are all the most professional soldiers from all places.

A little further away from Toniger, in fact, many people have already learned of the impending battle, but in their opinion, this battle of great disparity in strength has no suspense, so that although Count Denel has gradually entered old age, his exuberant energy has not yet subsided" His orders are still regarded as authority in the area under his rule, and in a short time he can gather an army of one or two thousand men. What's more, everyone knows that the Lord Earl at this moment still has barbarian and undead wings, and even the dukes in the north dare not face up to such a force.

However, Hadesh disagreed, and just before today, "for three days in a row soldiers from out-of-place places have entered this outpost." Four came three days, six the next morning, and yesterday the last group was seven" In just three days, the strength of the army in this outpost reached twenty.

These people "are all professional soldiers. This conclusion startled Hadesh himself: before he defected to the new lord, Hadesh had been a knightly retinue of Grudin, although not as good as the guards in the castle, but Grudin's skilled warriors like him did not exceed fifty at most. Others, Yaduo are the kind of aristocratic soldiers, or even militiamen, who are used to fill up the numbers.

Hadesh has experienced several battles between lords, and in this era, battles between lords are usually very bloody, although nobles often don't really get hurt, except for the kind of unfavorable ones, being hit by stray arrows, but the consumption of the soldiers and knights below is very powerful. Only those who survive one battle can be called skilled warriors, and people like him who have experienced several battles simply look down on those who can't even hold a sword. No matter how many of those guys come, it's useless.

However, a lord, the knights who are really reliable under his command are often only a hundred or ten, not more. First of all, you can't afford it, a professional soldier needs to take up a lot of resources, let alone a seasoned knight. Secondly, there are not so many excellent talents, and the attraction of lords is often not as good as those knight cities with a little strength and a little bit of strength to go to a big lord like Count Jean Denel. Claiming to have hundreds of armor soldiers, he can already be a very strong lord, such as the baron of Grudin's side, and the real reliability of his subordinates is only a hundred and ten people.

But Brando is an exception.

Because all the talents under him can be gathered by chance, from a,

Mercenaries in the people and even further afield, although these mercenaries have not experienced any real wars, but they have been fighting bloody battles all year round, and those who can survive are often more sensitive to battle than ordinary soldiers.

And the mercenaries under the three regimental commanders of Juta, Fern, and Clenthia are even more outstanding, especially most of Fern's men were originally from the Eruin cavalry of the Karen Su Plateau, and as pacesetters, they were originally elite, and after the baptism of blood and fire, their personal strength was a cut above that of other mercenaries.

However, this is not the strongest, because there is also the existence of the group of people of the red bronze dragon Leto. The strength of those people is actually not high, and the most outstanding ones are only hovering at the peak of the black iron, but the combat experience is beyond the imagination, and Brando has long suspected the identity of these guys. Especially with Leto's identity there, he wondered if these veterans were all veterans of the November War, and the conclusion was a bit scary, but it seemed to be the most plausible prediction. These sophisticated mercenaries alone make up nearly two-thirds of the human population under Brando's command, as well as members of the original garrisons and patrol cavalry from Butch and Reedenburg, who also fought against Mardara.

The last part is the knights of Sir Mintai who have taken refuge with Calglis, plus the recruits. Brando's current command of human soldiers numbered from more than 2,000 to 3,000, but more than eighty percent of the 2,000 were true veterans, the most experienced and experienced warriors on a par with the regular knights who had been training their combat skills all year round.

Outsiders thought that their group of Tonigal, the rebels, were just a rabble of two or three thousand, but Hadesh knew that the young lord could have more than two thousand knights under his command.

More than 2,000 knights, Martha is on top, more than 2,000 knights can lead an army of more than 100,000.

When the first king Ecka founded the kingdom, there were only two hundred knights around him.

"There's news in the forest." Suddenly, a voice said this behind him. Hadesh was startled and subconsciously turned around.
