The next day.

Carter took the six thousand troops of Blackwater City, and the remaining two thousand, leaving behind to maintain order in Blackwater City.

However, the leaders of the 2,000 soldiers were replaced by Carter's own men.

An army of more than 20,000 people, led by Carter, slaughtered the next city.

But before they could get near, the city was empty.

The city lord had already rushed to the capital with thousands of soldiers, and he didn't know if he had sealed the king's order or colluded with Rosny.

Carter, with his army, did not stop at this empty city, passed through the empty city, and continued to advance.

When he came to the next city, Domino, the young lord of the city, Kamodo, came out directly with 5,000 troops to greet him.

The Danotta family still has many loyal vassals.

The young Kamodo is one of them.

"Your Highness Princess, I have been waiting for a long time. A few days ago, I received news that the Rosny family has gathered troops in the capital and is preparing to make a rebellion, and we must rush to the capital as soon as possible to help Your Majesty. ”

Kamodo is a burly man, about two meters tall, with a horn on his forehead, and a resolute face with a dignified appearance.

Carter sat on his horse, looked at him condescendingly, and then glanced at the five thousand soldiers behind him who were ready to go, and then said with a blank face: "Kamodo, now, I am Your Majesty." ”

Kamodo was stunned for a moment, seemed to be a little suspicious of his ears, and said, "Princess, ...... you?"

Carter looked at him with a cold gaze and said, "Please call me Your Majesty, Kamodo." ”

Kamodo stared at her in shock, and after dozens of seconds, he suddenly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, took a few steps back, and said in a deep voice: "Princess, I have sworn allegiance to the Danotta family, and sworn allegiance to Your Majesty. I led the army out of the city this time to go to the capital to aid Your Majesty. If the princess has other plans, then I can't accept it. ”

An orc general behind him sneered: "My lord, I said it a long time ago, that news is true, Princess Carter has already established herself as king." But you don't believe it. ”

Carter held the reins, looked at him with a twinkle in his eyes, and said, "It's all the Danota family anyway, isn't it?" ”

The orc general sneered with a sneer on his face, "Of course not. Now His Majesty is still alive, even if he encounters an accident and unfortunately dies, Prince Fern will ascend the throne, Princess Carter is a girl, no matter how good she is, even if she has made great contributions on the border, it will not be your turn to take the throne. ”

Carter suddenly laughed and said, "So, do you want to be loyal to me?" ”

Kamodo held the hilt of his sword, looked at her with a firm gaze and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess, my allegiance is to Your Majesty, and my city is also a gift from Your Majesty, and I must not betray Your Majesty." ”

Carter narrowed his eyes, nodded, and said, "Okay, then ......"

She raised her hand and said with a cold gaze: "Kill them all!" ”

"Kill—"

The orcs behind him immediately rushed forward with a roar.

Chu Xiaoye hurriedly said, "Carter, no!" ”

Carter didn't stop ordering, and turned to him and asked, "Why not?" If you can't be loyal to me, why do you keep it? Do you want to keep them and wait for them to suddenly fight back? ”

Seeing that the two sides had already fought each other, Chu Xiaoye hurriedly said: "This team is loyal to your Dannota family, you can use them to march all the way back to the capital." Moreover, there will be many troops loyal to your Danotta family along the way, and if you kill them now, we won't be able to help us at all! ”

Carter shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "As long as it's not loyal to me, I don't need it at all." I need my own army, not someone else's, you know? ”

Chu Xiaoye looked at the young city lord who had fallen in a pool of blood with several knives in his body, and sighed softly: "Carter, you shouldn't be so anxious and ruthless. These soldiers are likely to be your way forward. ”

Carter laughed, "Night, you don't understand orcs. Orcs only respect the strong, only fear the strong, and are loyal only to the strong. Your soft-heartedness and kindness will not work here. ”

"Look, they've all surrendered."

Carter suddenly pointed to the soldiers who were just about to resist, and said with a smug expression.

After the death of Kamodo and several generals, and seeing that the rebels were going to die, the five thousand soldiers immediately dropped their weapons, knelt on the ground, and announced their surrender.

"If I hadn't done it just now, these five thousand soldiers wouldn't have been mine."

With a smile on his face, Carter kicked the horse in his crotch, took a few steps forward, and said loudly, "Swear allegiance to me, honor me as king, and you will be forgiven!" ”

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty!"

First her own soldiers raised their arms and shouted, and then the soldiers kneeling on the ground immediately shouted.

Chu Xiaoye looked at the corpse on the ground, and then looked at the high-spirited girl riding on horseback, and his heart was a little blocked inexplicably.

They rested in the city for a day and then moved on.

By the time we arrived at the next city, it was already five days later.

There are probably less than three days to go from the capital.

The city in front of you is majestic and tall, especially magnificent, there are many castles inside, the people are boiling, it is quite prosperous, it is the second largest city in the Custer Empire, Bingluo City.

There are 20,000 defenders in Bingluo City, but most of them are used to maintain order, and even in times of war, they rarely participate in battles.

The lord of the city, Mormont, is a respected old man in his seventies.

He had issued a notice that anyone was welcome in Ice City, but that war would never be welcome, and that he would not fight for any war.

He only hoped that under his jurisdiction his inhabitants would live and work in peace and contentment, free from the intrusion of war.

The soldiers and civilians of Bingluo City loved him, respected him, and honored him as the most merciful and greatest city lord.

When Carter arrived with an army of 30,000, the city was still bustling with people, vendors, gates, and soldiers unguarded, and it seemed that no one was paying attention to them.

Two huge shadows swept across the sky, and they were two fiery dragons.

The rich and stable Bingluo City seems to lack nothing.

Carter led the army to the field that was only more than a hundred meters away from the city of Bingluo City, and looked at this ancient and rich city with flickering eyes.

Chu Xiaoye pointed to the road next to the city and said, "We don't need to pass through this city, just go over from the side, there is a road there." ”

Carter turned a deaf ear, still looking at this majestic and tall city with burning eyes, and after a while, Fang turned his head, looked at him and said, "Twenty thousand troops, countless wealth." Night, you know, I'm just starting out now, and I'm going to face a lot of enemies, and I need not only troops, but also money. Otherwise, no amount of loyalty will eventually become a phantom. ”

Chu Xiaoye frowned and said: "However, you also said before that this city has always been indisputable, even in the most war-torn times, there is no force to come and disturb it, because the other party has already sworn that he will not participate in any battle, whether it is righteous or evil." Moreover, this city is the largest financial income of your Karst Empire, and its business is spread all over the country, even abroad. Almost every force will need it. Are you sure you want to go in with an army, occupy it, or destroy it? ”

Carter laughed, "I didn't say that. I just want to borrow their army and some wealth. My demands are not high, and I think the old man Mormont will definitely agree. ”

With that, she raised her hand and ordered the army to move on.

At this time, the two pterosaurs hovering over the city suddenly let out a piercing cry.

When Carter led the army to the foot of the city, an old man with snow-white hair, with seven or eight young orcs, rode out quickly.

"Princess Carter, is there a place for Mormont to serve you?"

The old man was the lord of this city, he was thin, with two severed horns in his ears, his face was wrinkled, but his eyes looked bright and his spirit was quite strong.

His smile is very kind, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Chu Xiaoye was secretly anxious for him, this old man was so bold, he didn't even bring a guard, he didn't even send out an alarm, he just came out with seven or eight young people, didn't he know how important he was to this city?

Or maybe he thinks that every faction of Custer will keep their promises and will not harbor any dissent towards the city?

Or, he knew this Carter princess, and simply thought that the former Carter princess, or the current Carter Queen, was still the Carter Dannotta he once knew?

"It's been a long time, Lord Mormont."

Carter said lightly, but did not dismount.

Mormont, who was full of silver hair, climbed off his horse, looking trembling, and was supported by a young girl who quickly jumped off the horse.

"Princess Carter, Mormont is there for you if you need it."

The old man still said with enthusiasm on his face.

However, Carter said with a smile: "I'm glad to hear Lord Mormont say this, I led the army back to the capital this time, and I need nothing more than two things, army and money, I believe Lord Mormont has both of them, don't you?" ”

The smile on Mormont's face was still kind, and he said, "Of course." The things in Bingluo City are still very rich, and it can't be said that there are everything, most of the things are still there. I have prepared these two things for you, which the princess wants. ”

As soon as these words came out, Carter was stunned for a moment and said, "Already ready?" ”

Mormont smiled and nodded, and said, "Yes, the gold coins of five thousand troops and five carriages have long been prepared for the princess, and the princess can take them today if it is convenient." ”

Carter frowned and stared at him for a moment, then Fang suddenly smiled: "Lord Mormont is really generous, but I need more troops and gold than that." ”

Mormont raised his head, glanced at the dense army behind her, spread his hands, and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess, I can only give this." If you give too much, the others will not have a share, and when the time comes, they will definitely not give up. I also ask for your pardon from Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

Carter looked at the eight young men behind him and said, "Mormont, these shouldn't be your guards, right?" ”

Mormont smiled: "I'm here to see Her Royal Highness, why bring a guard." These are my grandchildren, they have admired the princess for a long time, always want to see the princess's demeanor, this is called Doya next to me, she has always wanted to go to the border, join the princess, fight side by side with the princess. ”

The girl who was holding him hurriedly bowed her head and said, "Your Highness, I hope I can get your permission." ”

Carter looked at her with flickering eyes, and the killing intent in his heart seemed to be a little shaken, but this was only a temporary wavering.

She suddenly raised her hand and said, "Then, Lord Mormont, you and these grandchildren of yours will join me in your allegiance and service to me. ”

Immediately, the orc soldiers behind her suddenly rushed over, surrounding the old man and the young people in front of her.

Chu Xiaoye looked at the orc girl fixedly, and the scene that she had once been on the grassland suddenly appeared in her mind.

Doya ...... Doya ......

It's just the same name and surname, how can it be the poor little lioness.

Mormont was a little surprised, and said, "Princess Carter, you ......"

Carter stopped talking nonsense with him and said, "Lord Mormont, I need your 20,000 troops, and all the wealth here. If you wish, you can be my subordinate, swear allegiance to me, and remain the lord of this city in the future. ”

Mormont shook his head directly and said, "No, Your Highness Princess, twenty thousand troops is too much. Bingluo City is not another city, there are people everywhere in it, and the army must be needed to maintain law and order. Moreover, all the riches you are talking about, it is even more outrageous. The wealth of the city of Ice is not that of me, Mormont, nor of the House of Danotta or the rest of the family, but of all the people of the country of Caster. Your Highness, you can't do that. ”

Carter pulled out the sword at his waist, looked at him coldly, and said, "I want this, so what?" ”

"Your Highness."

The girl named Doya looked at her weakly and said, "Please don't hurt my father, okay?" ”

Carter narrowed his eyes, pointed the sword in his hand directly at her, and coldly ordered the orc general next to her: "Kill this girl first!" Let's see if our Lord Mormont is willing to do it or not! ”

The orc general was about to make a move, when Chu Xiaoye suddenly shouted, "Stop!" ”

He looked at the girl beside him, as if he didn't know him, and said coldly, "Carter, you can't do this. ”

Carter smiled: "Night, you are my military advisor, what you say, I will naturally consider it." However, there are some things that you can't be a part of. You're an elf, and you don't know much about my orcs. There are some things that I have to be ruthless and have to use blood to solve. I need the army and the riches of this city, I have already said it. ”

"But you can't use this method!"

Chu Xiaoye said angrily: "The city lord has already come out, and he has also come out with his relatives, all of whom are children who admire you." They trust you and respect you, and the city lord has already offered to give you five thousand troops and five carriages of gold, Carter, you should feel satisfied and grateful, instead of such bottomless greed and cold-bloodedness! ”

Carter stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly looked at the girl next to Mormont, and suddenly smiled: "Night, you can't be the one who has a crush on this delicate and weak girl, right?" If you like it, you just say, you're welcome, I won't kill her, just leave her for you to enjoy. You can enjoy it tonight, I mean it. ”

"Alyssa!"

Chu Xiaoye suddenly shouted out this name, looking really angry.

"I repeat, you can't do that!"

Carter suddenly jumped off the horse and walked directly in front of the girl, with a cold flash in his hand, and directly cut her throat!

"Night, I will say again, this is not the grassland, this is the Custer Empire! And I, Carter, am now the king here! The only queen! I'm talking about orders! ”

She turned her head and looked at the elf boy on the horse, her eyes cold.

The girl clutched her neck and fell to the ground, looking at her with wide eyes, at Her Royal Highness, the princess she had admired for many years.

She didn't know why that was happening.

Chu Xiaoye trembled all over, anger filled his chest, and anger burned in his eyes.

He didn't know why Alyssa, whom he knew, had become like this?

Perhaps, this orc girl is no longer the little lioness she once was.

He was a little saddened.
