Chapter 152: The Evil Empress (12)

But Victoria didn't react in the slightest, just stared blankly in the direction of Twelve: "Salim, did you say that the mother received my painting?" Will she be happy? Will you come back safely? ”

Salim put away his handkerchief and said, "Yes, Her Royal Highness the Imperial Concubine has always loved you the most, and she will definitely return safely." ”

Zhao Jiaqi, who had not yet left the city tower, saw Victoria below, and said to Kyle, who had not yet gone far: "Your Majesty, is Princess Victoria a little inappropriate?" ”

Kyle smiled and pulled Zhao Jiaqi over: "What do you care about so much, isn't it tiring enough to be a saint and a queen?" Victoria is not your biological child, there is no need to care so much about her, we will have our own children in the future. ”

Zhao Jiaqi glanced at Victoria, who was embarrassed, and left with Kyle.

The army marched for two days, and in these two days, everyone slept in the open air, even the twelve themselves ate a big pot of rice, and did not ask for special treatment because of their status as imperial concubines.

In the eyes of the twelve, this is the most direct and effective way to improve efficiency and save materials during the march.

However, in the eyes of the soldiers under her, Twelve is like a general who is more powerful than her father, worthy of admiration.

This is different from the previous flattery or hypocrisy and grievances that hinder her identity, she saw the true feelings in the eyes of the soldiers.

Soso and the Knights and the elite squad also gradually got along.

Whenever the army stopped to rest, Suosuo would always go out to hunt some small animals by himself, and slowly some soldiers mastered the rules of Suosuo's hunting, and began to go out hunting with it, and each time he could recover a lot.

In addition, from time to time, he showed his hand and made some delicious roast rabbits and roasted wild boars to eat, and the army's food was also improved.

Everyone felt that these days didn't feel like they were marching, but like they were on a spring outing.

Just as they were approaching the Novino border, the army suddenly encountered a group of reconnaissance teams from the Cass Empire.

The first to spot the enemy was Soso.

On this day, everyone stopped and set up camp as always, but Suo Suo did not go hunting, but followed Twelve's side without leaving an inch, and she only thought that he was tired.

When it was nightfall, Soso, who was sleeping beside her, suddenly pricked up his ears, and Twelve looked up when he heard the movement, and looked at its reaction to know that he had made a discovery.

Twelve didn't dare to slack off, called Dean and dozens of other elite squads, and followed Suo Suo while the moonlight was gone.

When he reached a small hill, Twelve saw a faint fire not far away, and immediately signaled everyone to hide.

Hiding behind cover, Twelve saw the source of the fire, a small group of about twenty men, each carrying a backpack and no weapons on their bodies, but wearing armor with a lion's heart on their chests.

It's true that this is a soldier of the Kas Empire, but why is there such a pair of centaurs in this place?

Twelve felt strange, nodded at Dean, and he immediately led people to surround the group of teams of the Cass Empire.

The soldiers of the Cass Empire were originally walking well, but they were surrounded by Dean and others who suddenly appeared, and they were shocked for a while, and they took out the black and swarthy things in their backpacks and shouted: "Don't come here, we have gunpowder!" It's a big deal! ”

Twelve led Suo Suo to them: "I'll just say who is so bold, it turns out that he is carrying gunpowder." ”

A group of people looked at Twelve, and instantly understood that she was the leader of the team, but some didn't understand why she was a woman. Could it be that she is the legendary god of war, Heine?

Is Heine Campbell so young?

The Kas soldier at the head said with a straight face: "Heine of the Campbell family! We will not give you the gunpowder in our hands easily, or let us go, or we will all die and blow you up, and the iron hooves of the Cass Empire will trample every inch of Robert's Empire! ”

Twelve scoffed softly, "You think I'm Heine? You're really blind, but explosives are a good thing, Dean. ”

Dean stepped forward: "Your Highness, what do you command?" ”

"The explosives are confiscated, the people are tied up, and you can do it if you lose someone."

"Yes!"

The Kas soldier at the head wanted to threaten Twelve, but suddenly felt a cold in his neck, and a long sword came up, he shrunk his neck and lowered his eyes and said, "Don't mess around! ”

Dean smiled wickedly: "I don't mess around, I just want to see if my sword is fast or your dynamite is fast!" ”

Both horizontal and vertical are dead, and the Cass soldiers were frightened: "Don't be like this, don't be like this, can't I listen to you?" ”

"Then you won't let your people be caught obediently?" Dean increased the force on his hand, and a blood streak appeared on the neck of the Cass soldier.

He squeaked and screamed for his companions to put down the explosives in their hands.

Dean completed the task perfectly, and returned to Twelve with the man and gunpowder: "You see, Your Highness, these are the gunpowder we have captured. ”

Twelve nodded: "The Kas Empire sent such an inconspicuous team into the Novenor border, just to attack the fortress of the Marquis Heine. ”

Dean looked heavy: "Looks like we're lucky." ”

Twelve chuckled: "Luck is also a kind of strength, take them to my little niece Heine." ”

Early the next morning, Twelve set out with his men to prepare for the city.

Although Novino is the border of Robert's Empire, it is rich in supplies and close to the sea, so the towns here seem to be more prosperous than the Imperial Capital.

The Twelve had the army stationed outside the city, and they themselves entered the city with Dean, Soso, and two others.

In the city, the endless flow of carriages and crowds on the streets, lined with orderly vendors, gave Twelve Eleven the illusion of returning to the imperial capital in an instant.

After asking a few passers-by, the group found Heine's castle.

The castle in front of him looked a little old, Dean and the Twelve Science Popularized said: "This is the castle built by the previous lord of Novino, at that time Novino was not the territory of the Campbell family, let alone the Robert Empire, it was the Duke of Campbell at that time, that is, your great-grandfather laid Novino, and this castle was preserved." ”

Twelve nodded, walked into the castle, and as soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by two soldiers.

"Who? How dare you trespass on Marquis Campbell's castle? ”

Twelve raised his eyebrows, his tone was not small, and then he slowly took out the imperial decree given by Kyle: "I am Twelve Campbell, and I have come to assist Marquis Heine in conquering the Cass Empire by the will of His Majesty the Emperor Robert!" ”

The two soldiers looked at each other, and one of them saluted Twelve: "Your Highness, please hand me over the paperwork, and I will go and ask the Marquis of Heine to come and greet you personally." ”
