213 Fake drama and real tragedy
"I knew that if I wanted to kill Karl and the old boy, I couldn't rely on the defenders of Reims's territory who were rotten from the beginning to the end. It seems that I www.biquge.info better deal with him until I get rid of Zigra IX, and as for the current unresolved Eastern Route Army, I am afraid that the fat pig king wants to favor Karl, but he is afraid that Valente will rebound! ”
With such a slander in his heart, Xirui was also expressionless on the surface.
"Your Majesty, I'm just a little baron, and it's not appropriate to adjudicate a matter between a viscount and an earl, right?"
"What's out of place? In addition to being the same as Karl, you are the vanguard I appointed, does it have anything to do with their contribution this time? Zigra IX, screaming strangely, made Ciri see it, but he really didn't want Karl to do it. But the problem is that he can pretend not to understand the eyes of Zigra IX, but he can't stop Carl and Valente from understanding!
As I said before, Valente is an ally on his side of Ciri, although he will not fight against the king, but this situation obviously falls within the scope of their negotiations, and in order to get the territory of Reims, Valente can't care so much.
"Lord Ciri, you're here to judge. Obviously, I am the vanguard of the Eastern Route Army, and I also killed the former Earl of Reims, but the Count of Valente said that the first credit of the Eastern Route Army is his, isn't this unreasonable? ”
How can that be? I'm still wronged! Then I ask you, who broke the gates of Reims first, and who was the first to capture the Count's Castle! ”
"Hah! If it weren't for the fact that my subordinates had suffered too many casualties, when would it be your turn to take these credits? ”
"Dare to say casualties, Your Majesty handed you 10,000 people, but you were left with more than 100 people, Lao Tzu's subordinates had to have a waste like you, and they would have been cut down with a knife!"
"Alright, stop arguing! Didn't you say that it would be better for Baron Seeri to decide? Why, you don't even listen to me? ”
The distraught Zigra IX broke off, and the two obediently shut up. On Carl's side, he knew that Ciri was not from his side, so he didn't dare to be careless. On Valente's side, it was naturally discussed a long time ago.
Helpless, Ciri had to rush the ducks to the shelves. "Lord Karl, you said that you attacked Reims City first, but you were robbed by Count Valente?"
Eyed Karl, quietly gave Valentt another look, and Ciri asked in a deep voice. He finally understood that the reason why Carl, the bastard, was not killed by his own plan was completely because he didn't look down on the soldiers under him! Although he can not want this guy's life for the time being, he can't stand his 10,000 people, which are part of the 30,000 recruits he trained before! Even for the sake of those soldiers who forgot to die, he didn't plan to let this guy get his way!
Karl nodded: "Yes." Lady Cieri, does it matter? Although I only have one hundred left, I have also completed the task given to me by my majesty, have I? ”
Ciri's face sank, thinking that he would take the lives of soldiers trained by others to earn war merits for himself, you are really calm enough!
"Lord Valente, you said that Lord Karl was exhausted at that time, and you ordered the siege of the city, right?"
Valen nodded yes, but muttered in his heart, this kid obviously sent a signal, why does he seem to think of Carl talking? The plan that was said before was not implemented? Regardless of what he thought, Ciric listened to the opinions of all the participating Eastern Route Army before coming to Zigra IX.
"Your Majesty, I'm done."
"And what about your conclusions?"
"The conclusion is that the Count of Valente should take the lead in the capture of Reims."
"Huh? Why? "Zigra IX, my eyes almost didn't pop out! I've done so much together, and you've smoothed it out with a word.
"Your Majesty, I ask you, Viscount Karl's soldiers, did he recruit them himself from the realm? Did he spend a copper plate on those people? ”
Two questions in one sentence. On Karl's side, his face was like a red cloth, and on the side of Zigra IX, his face was inevitably embarrassed. That's right, the reason why he promoted Carl was because he had no foundation and let him do whatever he wanted. Originally, Ciri was also such a person, the difference was that Carl was poor and couldn't even take out a hundred gold coins, while Ciri rewarded a few guards casually, and took out more than this amount of gold coins.
"Okay, so why don't you make your decision for me?"
After a long time, Zigra IX finally held back a sentence. I didn't expect Ciri to be really obedient!
"Lord Viscount Karl, although he has no head, he has also made quite a lot of achievements, and it is still okay to go to Wise City to be an acting city lord......"
Zigra IX's eyes lit up! Acting City Lord, great idea! This will not only allow Carl to continue to be obedient, but also fulfill his private promise to him!
"Well, what Siri said is exactly what I want. Lord Viscount Karl, I will now appoint you as the acting lord of Wise City, Lord Valente, didn't you say that Lant City was taken by you? Then I'll give you this territory, Gray Gold Mine, you still let it out. Take the seal letter of the city lord and the acting city lord, and quickly kneel down and give thanks! ”
What a twist of gods! For other nobles, it's completely out of business! The king wants to promote Karl, everyone can see this, but depriving Valente of his territory is not a sign at all!
"Your Majesty! You can't do that! Gray Gold Mine, but it's my lifeline! Count Valente couldn't help but weep! Of course, with his acting skills, he can't fool the people present, but he has a good director! Whenever he thinks that the gold mine he has carefully managed no longer belongs to him, Valente feels cool in his heart!
Valente was crying sadly here, and Karl was about to cry over there. You know, even if his son died at the hands of Ciri, he didn't shed a single tear!
"Your Majesty! You give me Wise City, how can I recruit troops! ”
Wise City was taken by him, but it was His Majesty Zigra IX in front of him who emptied the treasure house of the city! For the position of acting city lord of Wise City. He also understood that with that little credit, this was already the greatest benefit that the king could give himself. The problem is that he is not sick and has no money, and this benefit has become a burden! Every time he thinks of the tragic situation of being isolated in Wise City, Carl feels bitter!
"How do you recruit troops? Don't you still have more than a hundred? Let them help you collect your taxes! The aristocracy levies taxes and recruits soldiers, and you still want me to teach you by hand? ”
Zigra IX roared at ease, but Karl deserved to roll his eyes and accept it silently. Did he know that Wise City is the second largest city after Kanter City, with a population of one million! More than 100 people, can manage tens of thousands of people, can they manage a whole million people?
Thinking of this, Carl couldn't help but glare at Ciri fiercely, he was thinking that as long as he eased up, he would hire a group of assassins to make Siri look good, but he forgot that Siri was never the kind of character who would swallow his anger. (To be continued.) )
