Chapter 103: Rushing to the Prairie
"Okay, I promise, this is to get over the crisis this time, and I can not blame you for the troublemakers behind your Quinn Chamber of Commerce, but only if this task is not too difficult, and you must provide the necessary help in case I need it, right?"
"This is natural. William said busily.
Seeing this, Gu Feicang nodded, looked at Linus and Old John, who were still fighting, and immediately shouted, "Okay, Linus, come back." “
Hearing this, Linus pushed with both hands, and the spiritual energy turned into a ring around it, vibrating towards the surroundings, Old John threw a punch when he saw this, and turned over in the air, and the two of them scattered, standing behind Gu Feicang and William.
As William said, with his maneuvering, the Empire soon issued a new edict, in which it was clearly stated that as long as he could destroy the orc food carriers, this time the matter would be the same, and he would be canonized as the mayor of St. Yorktown, and he would be canonized as the Imperial Earl as a reward.
"Earl, when has the empire been so generous?" When he heard the news of the edict, Gu Feicang was taken aback, in his estimation, it was not bad to be able to retreat this time and become the real mayor of St. York Town, how could he not have thought that there would be a chance to upgrade the title, and it was also an earldom, which was not a rotten title in the Cross Empire.
"It's our good luck, this decision was proposed by the eldest princess. William said.
"Celestia?"
"Yes, originally, my plan was to let you survive this difficult time safely, but I didn't expect the eldest princess to propose that if you can destroy the food and grass of the orcs, it will also be a great help to the imperial war, and you can repel the orcs twice, and you have also made a lot of contributions. William nodded.
"It's that simple?" Hearing this, Gu Feicang looked at William in disbelief.
William smiled when he heard this: "Of course it won't be so simple, the eldest princess proposed this, naturally to win you over." ”
"Now that the king is old, because of the attack of the orcs, maybe outsiders don't know yet, but for us big families, there is already news, and the king's body is afraid that it won't last long, so the princes and princesses below are also a little unable to sit still. “
Among them, there are three people who are most likely to ascend the throne, the first is the eldest princess, she is the king's first child, and the queen's only daughter, the most noble among all the princes and princesses, and it stands to reason that she is also the king's first heir, so there is a great possibility of succession. “
"The second is the second prince, his mother, Archduchess Lily, is the king's favorite female duke after the queen's death, Aiwu and Wu, the status of the second prince in the palace is also rising, plus the Archduke Lily has a strong imperial army under her hands, according to the comprehensive strength, the strength of the second prince should be the strongest one, so the possibility of him ascending the throne is not low. “
"The third is the Six Princes, although among the several princes and princesses, he is the youngest, now only fourteen years old, but his master is the legendary Dharma Saint Aldrich, and the Six Princes are also known as the last person who may become a legendary mage, and now he is already a junior magician, and it is said that he is about to reach an intermediate magician, so out of the consideration of the strong man behind him and his own possible achievements, there are not a few people in the empire who are in favor of making him a king. “
"Among the three people, although the eldest princess has the highest status, the oldest, and the strongest in line, because the queen died too early, there is no time to pave the way for the eldest princess, therefore, in the comprehensive strength, the eldest princess's strength is the worst, and even weaker than other princes and princesses, if it is not for her identity, I am afraid she is not qualified to compete for the throne. “
"Now, the eldest princess is intervening in this matter, I am afraid that she is also optimistic about the development of St. Yorktown, and may be able to help her compete for the throne in the future, so she will make a move and make an investment in advance, after all, with the current situation of the empire, she can not win much power. William said clearly.
Hearing this, Gu Feicang knew why things would go so smoothly this time, it turned out that the eldest princess was intervening in it, and the Quinn Chamber of Commerce couldn't do anything about this matter because of William, a small Cassidy family, if it wasn't for grabbing Gu Feicang's sore feet, in the current situation of disparity in strength, it wouldn't be able to turn over the storm at all.
However, although things are going well, but really speaking, it is not an easy thing to destroy the orc's grain and grass convoy, the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first, such a thing is an iron law no matter where it is, not to mention that during the war, the grain transport officers are often the strongest among the various races.
In order to prevent the grain and grass from being destroyed by the enemy, the orcs escorted the grain and grass are all elite troops, each team has at least a fifth-level powerhouse, and warriors, sacrifices, scouts and archers are all available, although the number is not much, but the comprehensive strength will definitely not be less than the last attack on the town of St. York, and it will be even more terrifying.
In addition to the strength, Gu Feicang needs to destroy not only one team, but needs to destroy a full sixteen teams, the orc clan is not a fool, even if Gu Feicang's strength can destroy several teams, when they are all vigilant, they will definitely strengthen their forces, when the time comes, it will be too difficult for Gu Feicang to complete the task, it can be seen that although this task is richly rewarded, the difficulty of the task is definitely not low, with the strength of St. York's face, it is impossible to succeed.
However, because of the difficulty of the task, under the mediation of the forces of William and the eldest princess, Gu Feicang was given a year, as long as he could successfully destroy the sixteen grain transportation teams in this year, even if he succeeded, that is to say, at least in this year, Gu Feicang could sit back and relax.
Of course, in order to prevent him from being passive and slacking off, although he was given a year, he was also required to destroy at least one team every month, so as not to use this year as a shield and perfunctory, which forced Gu Feicang to act quickly and go to the north to snipe the orc food transport team.
Therefore, early the next morning, Gu Feicang integrated the team, rode a griffin, and crossed the deciduous mountains all the way to the northern prairie.
