"My Majesty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info" The Tasha princess thought for a moment and turned her gaze to Charlie again, "I took a look at the detailed battle report yesterday and found that the reason why we lost was because of the fact that the number of people was greatly disadvantaged, it was because of that kind of magic cannon, all of our large weapons, whether it was trebuchets or ballistas, could not compete with this weapon, so it caused our soldiers to suffer heavy losses, and the place that should be defended was completely unbearable!" β
Charlemagne stopped growling, turned his head to look at his fiancΓ©e, and said angrily: "That's right! β
"We may not be able to solve the disadvantage in the number of soldiers, because the way the Immortal Kingdom replenishes its troops is too evil and outrageous! But weapons can be thought of! The eyes of the Tasha princess lit up.
"Your Highness is saying?" Charlemagne asked tentatively.
The Tasha princess nodded, "Doesn't that guy Henry have a weapon in his hand that can resist the magic cannon?" Wouldn't it be nice to let him sell us some of that artillery? β
Charlemagne shook his head a little bitterly: "Your Highness, do you think I didn't ask Henry for ~ to buy artillery?" In fact, before we formed an alliance with him, my envoy had already begged for ~ a combination of hard and soft, but Henry's bastard didn't miss the old love at all and refused to sell this weapon to us! β
The face of the Taxia princess turned cold: "Your Majesty, send him the detailed battle situation this time, and let him look at it!" If he can accept the outcome of the Western Continent being ruled by the Undead Kingdom, he can not sell us artillery! β
Charlemagne frowned and pondered: "This is tantamount to blackmail. β
"It's to blackmail him! When has this been, how can he still hide it like this?! The Taxia princess said with a frosty face, she didn't kill her father, she didn't have an account with Buchen, and at this time she heard that this broom was self-cherished, and she suddenly couldn't bear it!
Charlemagne and his teacher, Shangguan Zhige, glanced at each other, and the latter nodded.
"Then do it! Secretary! Charlemagne shouted.
"Your Majesty." The secretary immediately responded.
"Write a letter to Henry in my name, not only to make him aware of the details of the battle, but also to tell him that if he doesn't sell the cannon to me, this brother won't have to do !!." Charlemagne commanded angrily.
"Understood." The secretary nodded, and stepped back to draft the letter.
Charlemagne turned to Logan Trancy in the tent: "Duke of Trancy, you will personally deliver this letter to Henry's bastard!" β
Hearing this order, Logan Tracy's expression was a little strange, and he couldn't help but glance at Sean Sterling, who was sitting on top of him, but the latter closed his eyes and ignored him.
"Sean!" Logan exclaimed softly.
"Duke of Tranci!!" Charlemagne saw Logan's small movements and said angrily.
"Uh, Your Majesty the Emperor." Logan was stunned, so he reluctantly stood up, "Actually...... Actually, the Duke of Stirling is more familiar with Henry's guy, so why don't you send him on this trip? β
Charlemagne also glanced at Sterling, smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid he will fight with that guy Henry!" β
Logan wiped the sweat from his head and said with a bitter face: "But I also had a holiday with Henry!" β
It's just that Charlemagne shook his head: "Duke of Trancy, you are different, you are not so impulsive. β
"Your Majesty, are you praising me or am you hurting me?" Logan asked with a smile in his eyes.
Charlemagne was a little impatient with this conversation, and he wrinkled his brows and said, "Whatever you want!" Sir Tracy, I ask you, will you make this trip?! β
Logan hesitated, but finally nodded: "Your Majesty, I'll deliver this letter!" β
"That's pretty much it!" Charlemagne pursed his lips, returned to his throne and sat down, and said to his teacher, Shangguan Zhige: "Teacher, the Duke of Trancy is not at ease on this trip alone, you can follow him." In addition, I have heard that Henry has carried out some perverse reforms on his own territory, you can also see what is going on, and if it is really too bad, you can persuade him! After all, he is my biggest arms provider, and if he is finished, I will not be able to continue this battle! β
"Yes!" Shangguan Zhige hurriedly got up and answered.
β¦β¦
Charles, like Buchen, was a very efficient monarch and could not afford to delay in his orders, so after the letter was drafted, Logan Trancy and Shangguan Zhige prepared to leave for the four towns of Osan that afternoon.
Before leaving to say goodbye, Sean Sterling, who had been pretending to be dumb in the military discussion, finally spoke, he took Logan's arm and said: "Rogan, Your Majesty doesn't know, but you know very well that I won't go to Henry's guy for revenge." He said I'm impulsive, but I should be more worried about your impulsiveness! β
Logan rolled his eyes when he heard this: "Since you know, why didn't you stand up and oppose it at that time and take this errand yourself?!" β
Sterling smiled a little slyly, "Because I don't want you to miss a chance to settle your old suspicions with Henry!" β
"Phew! Who will settle the suspicion with him? He killed my king, and Princess Natalia's life and death are unknown, and if I see him, I will have to cut him with a sword! Logan Trancy gritted his teeth and said - because of the lack of communication, after Natalia went to the Eastern Continent, there was no news back to the Western Continent, and everyone in the Western Continent thought that the reason why she had not been heard from was because she had died in the war in the Eastern Continent.
"Logan, listen to me! Restrained! Even if it's for His Majesty's great plan, you have to refrain from it! Sean said with a straight face.
"I know, I know!" Logan stomped his foot in resentment.
Sean sighed inexplicably and cast his gaze to the eastern sky: "Logan, you know what? I always have a feeling that Henry's ambition is not limited to the Eastern Continent, and the ambition of His Majesty is not limited to the Western Continent. β
"Okay, what are you talking about?" Rogan looked puzzled.
"I mean......" Sterling's face darkened, "we might have a fight with that guy Henry!" And this battle will be about the dominance of this world! β
Logan's face couldn't help but become solemn: "Anyway, what do you let me do." β
"It's simple." Sterling nodded, "Repair the relationship with that guy Henry first, and then use this to find out his secrets!" β
"You mean the gunpowder formula?" Rogan asked, somewhat uncertain.
Stirling nodded, then shook his head again: "The gunpowder formula does need to be explored, but it's not just that!" Including his army formation, tactical thinking should be explored, and it is best to see with your own eyes how his army fights! This is of great reference significance to us! β
"I see." Logan Trancy nodded solemnly.
"That's it, take care." Sterling lifted Tracy onto his horse.
"Done?" At this time, Shangguan Zhi Gozema came to the two of them.
Sterling nodded: "Master Shangguan, Logan is a rough man, please call him from time to time." β
"It's like you're not a rough person!" Logan Trancy said unpleasantly.
Sterling smiled faintly and didn't return the favor.
"Don't worry! The old man will definitely cooperate with the Duke of Trancy to find out the secrets of the world for the empire and the emperor! β
"Hmm." Sterling didn't say anything more, ducking to the side.
"Master Shangguan, let's go!" Logan asked Shangguan Zhige.
Shangguan Zhige nodded slightly.
Logan didn't hesitate any longer, slammed his heel into the horse's belly, raised his horsewhip and walked away! Shangguan Zhige hurriedly urged the war horse to follow, followed by the entourage of the two and the other members of the mission, just like that, a total of hundreds of horsemen rushed out of the company camp!
The central part of the Western Continent is almost thousands of miles away from the four towns of Oshan, and even if you rush day and night, it will take several months to arrive, so at this time, let's not mention Logan Trancy and Shangguan Zhige, but refocus our attention back to the cloudy Wushan Pass!
After nearly a month of rapid marching, the 20,000 main forces of Weiyuan Wangfu finally arrived at Wushan Pass, because Wushan Pass was not big enough, except for Qu Yongchen and some of the main generals of the Qu family, other ordinary soldiers set up a company camp outside the Guancheng!
At this time, the two divisions of the army's vanguard led by Buchen also secretly sneaked to Kuzhou City on the border of Tongdong Town.
Kutuzov, formerly known as Kutuzov City, is an ancient city left over from the period of the Osan Empire, except that this city is relatively old, there is nothing surprising about this city, the only thing worth noting is that it is only a hundred miles away from the Osan Xiongguan!
