132 Wave after wave
The New Sixth Army, as an army representing Kaman in other countries within the Shang Alliance, was greatly praised for their achievements in Kaman. After achieving great results at a very small cost, Xiao Mu, the current regent of the Duchy of Kaman, sent his sister, the princess of Duke Carman's family (Note 1), Monica, to the front line to comfort the soldiers.
In fact, Xiao Mu's approach is understandable, for the Principality of Kaman, its army may not be able to win a battle in hundreds of years, and Cha Kist won.
This can first bring great reputation to the Duchy of Kaman, and at the same time, the aid to the Duke of Mossart is not free of charge, General Calvin went to the city of Mozart as soon as possible, and it is conceivable how much oil and water he will scrape from the Grand Duke of Mossart. Xiao Mu estimated that he was already smiling when he hid in the castle, and it was also a bit of a effort to let his sister come to the front line.
Of course, Koster certainly didn't think so, in his heart, Princess Monica was almost equal to the "terrifying monster", and how could she agree to this errand with her character, Kester wondered.
However, when he saw Princess Monica and Lolita behind her, Vester reacted instantly, it should be Lolita who is not worried about Feida and herself, plus the news of her injury spread to the royal capital, it just so happened that Xiao Mu also had this idea, and Monica probably agreed.
"Caster, come on, let me see, what's your situation now?" Monica has completely changed since she didn't care about state affairs, and the quiet and elegant princess in the past seemed to disappear all at once, so that Chester thought that this was the princess's original face.
After Monica entered the house, she looked around Nicker with great interest for a long time, "Well, I've grown into a man, come, let me see how the injury is!"
Monica doesn't care so much, "I'm a princess, I order you now, Knight Lord Koster, let go of your hands!"
The two were entangled, which made Rika, who was still in a heavy mood next to her, a little unbearable, Kerst did not fight with Princess Monica in the end, and was stripped of her shirt. Monica lifted the bandage and took a closer look at the wound, "Well, a small problem, a skin wound." Then he took a step back and chanted the spell in a loud voice. The holy light emitted from Princess Monica's hand, pouring into the wound on Koster's chest, under the effect of the mysterious spell, the wound on Koster's chest was visibly closing, and a tickling and numb feeling came from the wound, and Koster couldn't help but sigh comfortably.
"Wow!" Rika covered her mouth in shock, this was the second time she had seen magic, the last time she used magic in front of her was the dark mage Turs, even though the magic of the Carman princess did not seem to smell evil at all, Rika was still a little uneasy.
"Rika, don't be nervous, Monica uses healing, not dark magic. As if sensing Rika's uneasiness, Kerst shouted for comfort.
Monica's healing was soon over, there was only a faint red line left on Caster's chest, the scar was miraculously healed completely, and after taking a closer look at her "masterpiece", Monica proudly said to Princess Lolita, "How is it, my healing." ”
Lolita covered her mouth and smiled, "I know you're the best, Monica." ”
Monica turned her head again, looking at Rica behind Kerst with interest, just now when Kerst comforted Ricca, Monica noticed that this was standing in the position that should have belonged to Feida, "This girl is so beautiful, who is it?"
Rika said, "Venerable Princess Monica, my name is Rika, and the wound on Kerster's body is what I stabbed. ”
"Ahh
The group sat down, and Kerst explained what had happened to Monica and Lolita. Knowing Rika's identity and why she did this, Monica just glared at her fiercely, "Protect Cunster in the future, and if he gets hurt again, see how I punish you." "Monica's aura is so powerful, and the few people present seem to feel the arrival of ice and snow. Fortunately, Monica's anger disappeared quickly, and she soon talked and laughed with everyone again.
Monica came this time, in addition to visiting the soldiers of the New Sixth Army on the front line and helping Chester to treat his injuries, he also had another mission. It turned out that although General Calvin rushed to the city of Mozart as soon as possible, he found that Duke Mosat seemed to have suffered a lot of losses in this civil war. The main people who now demand remuneration from the Duke of Mosatt are the headquarters of the Merchant Alliance, the Duchy of Kaman, and the Duchy of Tra.
Needless to say, in order to counterbalance the rebellion, they lost a new Ninth Army and provided a large amount of weapons and equipment. Kaman and Tra were sent directly to fight with their armies. There is a proverb on the mainland, "when the army moves, the gold coins roll", and the two countries that have mobilized thousands of troops cannot suffer losses in vain, so the Duke of Mozart naturally had to bleed.
However, Duke Mozart lost almost all his territory in the rebellion, and all the farms and fields of the Duke were destroyed by the rebels. In order to motivate the citizens of the city to help defend the city, Duke Mozart took out the gold coins he had saved for many years and distributed them to the warriors who defended the city.
So much so that when the merchants, Kaman, and Terra came to ask for payment, Duke Mosat opened the empty castle treasury with a scoundrel look, "Look, we have these things left in Mosat, if you want to take them all." "The financial officer of the ** group of the business alliance took only five minutes to complete the count, a total of 238 gold coins, 26 silver coins, 92 copper coins, plus 2 East Pearls and 3 pieces of jewelry.
The heads of the three families looked at this account dumbfoundedly, as well as Duke Mosart, who was playing a scoundrel next to him, and laughed. Duke Calvin of Carman said gloomily, "It's okay, there's no gold, and you can use something else to compensate for it." ”
Therefore, in this case, Princess Monica will represent Duke Carman and come to accept the payment, as for what this reward is, Monica decided to sell it, but Vester didn't appreciate it, he only thought about it a little, "What else can it be, the most famous specialty of the Duchy of Mossat is ore, and we, Kaman, are now short of ore." Tell me, how many people have you knocked on. ”
Monica didn't speak, she began to laugh, laughed wildly, and stopped for a long time, "A total of four hundred tons of concentrate, one hundred tons of Tra, one hundred tons of Shangmeng, two hundred tons of us, half of copper and half of iron." Pay in two years, and we, the Principality of Kaman, will not have to import ore from Mozart for the next ten years. As soon as she finished speaking, Monica laughed again, provoking several other people, and shook her head helplessly.
Caster thought to himself, how hard Princess Monica had to endure when she was still regent, and still remember how dignified she was when I first met her.
However, it backfired, and Monica finally failed to go to the city of Mossart, because early the next morning, a flamingo fell in the military camp of Kester, and on the body of the flamingo, there was only an urgent letter signed by the Regent of Carman himself, and Kist opened the letter, and there was only one line on it: "The old duke is critically ill, Kester, Monica return quickly, please hand over the military affairs as soon as possible, there is another task." ”
The shorter the message, the greater the trouble. The old duke, who was not very good before he came, finally failed to survive the year, and the word "critically ill" made Monica very anxious, and she gave up her plan to go to Mozart City on the spot.
Kerst called Jon, a simple young man, who had proven his abilities in this Mossat counterinsurgency, he was a little more alert than Rober, and a little more steady than Ricken, and Kerst almost didn't think much about it, and decided to let Jon lead the Thirteenth Regiment. Hearing that Caster was going to leave the barracks and rush back to the royal capital as soon as possible, Jon nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Commander, I will take the thirteenth regiment with you on the day you leave." Actually, there is no more mission, and when General Calvin is done talking, we will return to Kaman. Goodbye to the barracks, Commander Koster. With that, Jon gave another military salute to Kester.
After a simple cleanup, Kester took Princess Monica, Lolita, Feida and Rika, as well as some of the princess's personal guards, and left the barracks on the banks of the Red Water River.
"Is it her? "Elder Hodgson, whisper to the Stone Hunter behind him.
"Yes, that's right, the Commander of Mosatt's Christet confirmed that Rika was taken away by Lord Koster, and I also asked two of Mosat's soldiers to confirm it. Stone replied.
Hodgson wiped his nose, "It's a little weird. It stands to reason that Rika colluded with the dark mage to assassinate Lord Koster, who not only did not pursue her, but also took her by his side. There are two reasons, either this Lord Kester is lustful enough, or this Lord Kester and Rika are in collusion with each other. ”
Stone shook his head from the side, "I'd rather believe that it's the former reason, as far as I know, this Lord Kester is a very good friend with our Captain Green, and I believe in the Captain's vision." Moreover, Lord Koster's injuries are genuine. ”
Hearing Stone say this, Elder Hodgson laughed instead, "Young man now, do you see, that Lord Koster, all around him are girls." ”
Neither Koster nor Rika, who had left the barracks, realized that they had luckily escaped a catastrophe.
Note 1: The original origin of the countries of the continent was the reward of meritorious deeds after the First Continental War. Meritorious officials were made nobles, ranging from royalty, kings, dukes, and knightly lords.
Later, most of the small kingdoms went through many years of war, and the Duchy of Kaman, although still a grand duke, was actually an independent kingdom, no different from a king.
Therefore, Monica is honored as a princess, and no one finds it strange.
