Chapter 104: The Duke of Moulton

Bruce shook his head slowly, "Your Majesty...... The Helman Kingdom, I am afraid, is still resentful of the fact that we left Glitter and the First Legion in the first place, and did not help them to attack, so they only nominally took over the four provinces, but in fact, they did not send a single soldier......"

Ed snorted coldly: "Hold a grudge? I look at it as just an excuse, Herman wolf ambitions, they let Glitter and Antonio develop, with only one purpose, that is, the snipe and the clam compete and the fisherman profits! ”

Ed's words reverberated throughout the hall, and all the ministers couldn't help but feel shocked in their hearts. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Bruce sighed, how could he not understand this truth, before launching the mutiny, Ed and Bruce and the others discussed how to use the help of Herman's hungry wolf without luring the wolf into the house. And everyone thinks the best way is to be fast!

The mutiny must be so fast that the king does not have time to gather his forces! Sweep the tail quickly, so fast that Herman has no chance to covet himself! As long as the action is fast and the loss is small, then although the throne of the entire Custer has changed hands, the overall strength is still there, and no matter how arrogant Herman is, he can only take the four provinces given to him and leave Cust honestly.

But this seemingly flawless plan has dragged on to this day because of a Seoul, step by step, layer by layer! Antonio not only did not die, but also sat firmly in Moulton, gathered a large army, and had a counterattack back! In this case, can Herman not sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and give birth to the mind of a fisherman?

Ed sat on the chair a little decadently, looking at the princes and nobles who were silent below, and suddenly laughed a little, these guys who usually wait to speak well and speak cleverly, at the critical moment, they were so frightened that their necks couldn't wait to shrink into their chests, and there was no one available in the civil and military dynasties.

"The war must end as soon as possible, whether we die or Antonio dies, this war must end as soon as possible!" Ed stood up directly from his seat, "Bruce, close the battle line, the first, second, and fourth legions will all gather in Roque Province and rebuild Roque granary, as soon as the weather is warm, this king will lead the army to conquer in person!" ”

Province of Moulton, Palace of King Antonio. Antonio XIV sat on the throne, with the princes and nobles below seated in a row. "General Olier, is there any movement on Herman's side?"

"Back to Your Majesty, they stationed troops on the border, the barracks stretched for several miles, and at the border, a large number of brick and stone houses were built, obviously ready to be stationed for a long time, their thoughts are obvious!"

A cold light flickered in Antonio's eyes: "Herman, it's a wild wolf, they are waiting for us to fight to the death with Eddard's rebellious fight, and finally the army will go north and swallow my entire Karst Kingdom, hum!" Even if he dies, I must not let him succeed!! ”

Oliel's face tightened: "Your Majesty, we will defeat the Ed army as soon as possible and recover the kingdom!" ”

Antonio nodded: "Our grain and grass are enough to support the ...... for how long"

Olier looked unbearable, he was a lot older, but because of worry, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together: "Although we have received strong support from the people around us, the number of army conscriptions this time is too large, and the supply of three meals a day has been reduced to two, even so, it is difficult to last for two months!" And the crops in the farmland will not mature until April recently, and we will have to find another way in the middle of the month or two......

Antonio clenched his teeth, his face was cold, and he was silent for a few minutes, and finally asked: "Seoul has been developing here for a year, and they ...... over there"

Oliel smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, when my grandson led the First Legion to be betrayed by Bruce, and was besieged by Bruce in Seoul for a month, Liu Wan's army had already emptied the granary in Seoul, although I didn't ask Glitter about it, but they must not have much food in stock!" ”

A trace of indignation flashed on Antonio's face, "Could it be that my 100,000-strong army has not yet set out to fight, and it will fail because of the problem of food and grass?" ”

Olier sighed and reorganized his face: "Your Majesty, Roque, Tynas, and Annaba are all major food provinces in our country, and now Ed's thief is stationed in Roque, as long as we can win a big victory and recover any of the three provinces, even if the granary is scraped by Ed, collecting the people's food, we can also let our army tide over the difficulties!" ”

Antonio's face finally softened a little: "In this way, the upcoming battle will be the one that will affect the fate of my caster!" Olier, can you ...... confident?"

Olier suddenly smiled bitterly, he raised his head and looked at Antonio, he wanted to say that he was old, and his brain reaction had begun to be sluggish, but seeing the expectation in Antonio's eyes, he could only bite the bullet: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister is sure of victory!" ”

"Report!"

Antonio was about to praise this old general who had worked hard for the country all his life! Outside the hall, the guards suddenly reported it.

"What's the matter?"

"Report to Your Majesty, General Gretel asks to see you!"

"What is he doing now?" Antonio was stunned.

The guard hesitated for a moment and said, "General Gretel didn't come alone, he, he, he also brought a lot of grain and grass!" ”

Olier raised his eyebrows, his heart was hot, he didn't care about humility, and rushed in front of Antonio and said, "How much grain and grass?" ”

Antonio was preempted by Olier to speak, but instead of getting angry, he straightened his ears and looked at the guard expectantly.

The guard was startled by the shining eyes of the king and his ministers, and he immediately lowered his head and said, "The grain wagons stretch for miles, no less than 500 barns!" ”

"500 warehouse !!" Olier's excited beard almost cocked, and he looked at Antonio with a happy face: "Your Majesty, five hundred warehouses of grain are enough for 100,000 soldiers of our army to eat for hundreds of days!" ”

Antonio was not calm either, he walked directly to the guard: "Are you sure there are five hundred warehouses??" ”

When the guards faced the king so closely, the whole person immediately trembled: "Your Majesty, I, I dare not lie, at least five hundred cangs, at least ......"

"Good!" Antonio roared suddenly, his face was ruddy, as if he had just eaten Ejiao, eh, he had just taken a panacea, and the worries and hardships of the past few days seemed to be gone, "General Gretel, please!" ”

"General Gretel, please!"

"General Gretel, please!"

"General Gretel, please......"

One after another, the order gradually passed on. A minute later, Glitter arrived at the main hall of the palace.

"Gretel, I heard that you brought a great gift to this king this time!" As soon as Glitter entered the main hall, Otonio couldn't wait to ask.

Glitter smiled and said to himself, this old guy is still quite anxious. "Your Majesty, considering that Your Majesty has been continuously recruiting soldiers and horses in recent days, I am afraid that grain and grass will become a problem, so I borrowed some food from other provinces and specially sent it for Your Majesty!"

"Borrowed some food? There are lords in other provinces who are loyal to me! Antonio perked up and looked at Gretel expectantly.

Glitter smiled slightly: "I borrowed it from the granary of Roque Province......"

"Roque Province?" Everyone in the hall looked at Gretel in surprise.

Gretel struck everywhere, and the news of the robbery of the granary had obviously not yet reached here, and everyone was confused. However, even if they can't get the news, Antonio, Olier and others naturally know the information that a legion is stationed in Roque Province, and no matter what method Gretel uses to "borrow", since he can borrow it, the means are unimaginable.

After all, a legion, 65,000 soldiers and horses, from 65,000 soldiers and horses firmly guarded by a cartload of so much food, this is much more difficult than being surrounded by a legion!

Antonio sorted out his mood for a while, and his face gradually calmed down, "That, General Gretel, I don't know how much grain and grass you brought me this time?" ”

"Not much, not much, just a thousand warehouses!"

"A thousand warehouses!" Antonio's eyes widened!

"A thousand warehouses!" Olier was even more excited, and almost came to Greer to pick him up.

"A thousand warehouses! Oh my God, a thousand warehouses! The princes and nobles in the hall looked at Gretel's eyes and changed color again!

"Did you hollow out Roque's granary?" Antonio looked at Gretel in disbelief, and Glitter shrugged: "Since you want to rob it, do you still have to leave some points for the enemy!" ”

Antonio looked at Gretel blankly, and after a long time, he sat down slowly, "General Gretel, I have to say, this king, I underestimate you again!" You have such an amazing intellect, and you have the allegiance of a warrior at the pinnacle of silver, why should you commit yourself here to be a little general, according to me, your strength and your strength are enough to carry you and achieve a new kingdom in this troubled world! ”

As soon as Antonio's words came out, the entire hall was suddenly silent! Glitter understood the meaning of Antonio's words, Antonio is now just doubting Gret's loyalty, before the kingdom rebellion, Glitter had not seen the king side, and he couldn't talk about grace or anything, and it was precisely because of this that not only the king was not worried about him, but even the princes and nobles below were not worried about him, so there was the scene where the king wanted to marry the princess to him before, and the purpose was naturally to tie Glitter to his chariot completely.

"Your Majesty, Glitter fought with Herman before to repay Lord Steve's help, and now, naturally, it is for my brother Zhao Yun!"

Antonio's face was a little complicated: "Gretel, Gretel, you are the first person to make this king so in such a dilemma, okay, okay, Gretel obeys the order!" ”

"The last general!"

"This king now proclaims you the Duke of Moulton, leading an army of 100,000 people, after the beginning of spring, fight with Eddard's traitors, wave your troops north, and regain the lost territory! When you take Ed's head and give me my life, I will marry Princess Angelina to your brother, General Zhao Yun! ”

Gretel's heart was relieved, and the king finally relented, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" (To be continued.) )
