Chapter 379: The Remaining Strength Next

"Because Count Endrida has a good personal relationship with me, when I first came to the Duchy of Mageni, I was entrusted with the task of mercenaries in Dulum City, and the tasks assigned to me by Count Endrida were properly completed. "Feder had already figured out how to deal with it, and now that Endrida was in his hands, no matter who asked, he couldn't tell the truth.www.biquge.info

The corners of Jados's mouth twitched, and he said under the gaze of the other three nobles: "I thought that you and Count Endrida would leave Dumu City because of a stiff relationship, but I didn't expect him to come to support you with tens of thousands of troops this time." ”

"It's to support Duke Yanis," Fidel dealt with the other party under the hint of Vittorio's eyes, "Now we need to gather the remaining forces to deal with the East Oguna Empire, and Governor Ludwig of the Kingdom of Cosse has promised to flank the Emperor with us." ”

The other three nobles all exchanged a look, and a nobleman with a sallow face asked in a low voice, "Captain Fidel, when will the Black Marsh City that Ludwig took will be returned to us?"

Vittorio explained, "That cooperation with the Winterlanders was based on the relinquishment of Black Swamp City. ”

"yes... I thought that those Winter Nationals were trying to humiliate us and avenge the attack on them and ask for a temporary 'loan' of our capital, but I didn't expect that our Duchy of Magini had really lost its capital..."

Everyone was silent for a while, and Vittorio thought for a moment before responding: "It will take some pay and price to turn enemies into friends, and without the allies, we will not be able to reverse the previous disadvantage." Although Black Marsh City has temporarily fallen into the hands of the Winter Nation, as long as we can repel the invaders of the Eastern Oguna Empire, then..."

Jados turned to the side, and he looked the least serious about Vittorio's words, "This Captain Fidel's subordinates must not be adults! I see that you are a child! A naïve and naïve child who doesn't understand anything! What you just said is just a fool's dream! Have you forgotten the Duchy of Noo, the Papal States, and the Duchy of Dlamain? Giving the capital to the Winter Nation in exchange for the other party's non-attack is as stupid as giving your daughter to a robber so that the other party will not rob your family of valuables! You have given away our most important and most worthy of protection, and your dignity has long been trampled on, and you still want to fight back? If you really have the ability to fight back, you will not be beaten and retreated, what kind of person would accept such conditions, is it the timid and fearful fellow of Endrida or the dry and smelly boy of Duke Yannis?"

Jados's words stunned everyone, his extreme outspokenness actually has a lot to refute, but the emotional sentence shows Viscount Jados's disappointment with the current state of the country, his anger may be turned into motivation, but those who plan to secede from the Duchy of Mageni when they see that the momentum is not right will not help the status quo.

Vittorio, who was personally attacked, did not feel angry because of the other party's words, but said calmly: "No matter what the previous decision was, we still have a glimmer of life now, and it is far from the time to give up." ”dudu1;

Another small-mouthed nobleman sighed for a while, "Captain Feide, I can't hide it... I'm here to inform the head of the regiment of your decision that I'm going to take my territory to join the Independence League... But before I join, I'll provide some of the military expenses for the Mercenary Guard and Duke Yanis, which is a little bit of my heart..."

When the fat nobleman saw that someone was the first to take the lead, he immediately said, "I, too, am willing to provide food... It just so happens that this autumn is a bumper harvest, and the granaries in my city are full of grain, and I will ask my son to send you enough food for 20,000 people to eat for three months! That's what I want to do..."

Vittorio had just told Fid the "good news" of the arrival of the fat nobleman with three thousand men, and now the nobleman had told him what he could do to help. If there is no accident, his choice will definitely be the same as that small-mouthed nobleman, with his wife and son, as well as territory or something, to join the independent alliance.

"If there is sufficient food and military expenses, then the victory over Emperor Oguna of East is just around the corner, and our regimental commander will thank you on behalf of Duke Yanis. Vittorio gently elbowed Fidel to get him to answer.

Fide also immediately said: "Yes, I am very grateful for the assistance of several people. ”

Only then did the small-mouthed aristocrat and the fat aristocrat calm down, while the nobleman with a sallow-faced face stopped speaking, and he didn't seem to even intend to express his "intentions". However, judging from the reaction of these three people when Jados blamed Endrida and Duke Yannis just now, they did not respect the young new duke from the bottom of their hearts. During the reign of the old duke, the politics of the Duchy of Magini were very loose, with the local nobility in their own affairs, and now the disintegrating principality has nothing to be nostalgic for these distracting nobles.

Only Viscount Jados of Blue Indigo Castle was still there with his arms crossed.

"I'm going to meet Duke Yannis and Count Endrida in person," said Viscount Jados when the three nobles were no longer talking, "even if I join any independent alliance, I'll see what the last duke of this duchy has to say!

The presumptuous words shouted out from the mouth of Viscount Jados, and the small-mouthed nobleman lowered his head slightly, "Lord Jados, why are you so troubled..." dudu2;

"Don't you have to give an account to the people of the Duchy of Mageni in your territory?" said Jados so loudly that the whole hall could hear it, "You can do it with a cheeky face, but I can't! I have to stand in front of the people and tell me why I made the choice to leave the Duchy of Mageni!"

Vittorio had a "not mistaken person" expression, and Fide was also deeply relieved - he did not expect that after the death of Count Canchen, there would be nobles like Viscount Jados, who were dedicated to the Duchy of Magini. The three landless nobles did not respond to Viscount Jados, they wanted to divert the topic, but Fei also knew that these people were willing to come here to meet him, which also reflected that they actually had a glimmer of hope for the Duchy of Magini. It's just that the last reason made them choose to only provide military expenses and rations, which is actually the safest thing for themselves and their own territory.

Feder did not leave the town with regrets, and the Viscount, who had been his opponent, became the biggest gain. Jados claimed that although his men were less than 4,000, the soldiers of Blue Indigo Castle were the best and most elite. The viscount, who had admired force since childhood, was reluctant to talk more about Fidel, but he mentioned his "achievements".

Jados learned knighthood when he was a teenager, and he defeated countless bands of thieves, and he destroyed several strongholds of the rebel army. Every prisoner who needed to be executed was killed by the hands of Viscount Jados, a nobleman with slender eyebrows and eyes, who hated the rebels who had been making trouble, and of course the Emperor of Eastern Oguna**. However, because he was not good at dealing with other nobles, his relationship with the other nobles in the southern region was very average, and even Lady Eli did not invite them to join the previous Southern Army.

Before entering the barracks, Jados and Fidd, who had only brought a dozen or so retinues, spoke a few words alone.

"Captain Fidel, before meeting Duke Yannis, I would like to confirm one thing. ”

"Sir, excuse me. ”

"Who did the old duke's death?"

"It was done by a college teacher named Zebuba, and according to the investigation, he was rebelled by the rebel army, so he attacked the old duke. ”dudu3;

"Where is the murderer now?"

"I don't know. Fed thought of Revere, who was also in the barracks.

"Although I hate Emperor East Augusta**, the rebel organization is the main culprit of our country's ruin," Jados put his hand on the hilt of his sword, his five fingers open and closed, "I know that they are still lurking in various parts of the principality, if I know what other conspiracy the rebel organization has, I will send troops to fight it as soon as possible." ”

Jados unsuspectingly followed Fidel into the barracks, which had been controlled by the Potato Mercenaries, he thought he would meet Count Endrida first, but the first person to meet him was Duke Yannis.

When meeting with Duke Yannis, Jados put away his previous frenzy in the castle, and he was respectful to the duke, and of course Fidel didn't say anything. Jados asked Duke Yannis about something, and the latter was able to answer them fluently, and even about the Count Endrida being placed under house arrest, Duke Yannis directly said it. Jados wasn't too surprised when he heard it, he just glanced sideways at Fed, and his eyes were intriguing.

After Jados left the duke's tent, he immediately said to Fidel: "In other words, now the last bit of power in the Duchy of Mageni is in the hands of a mercenary, am I wrong to say this?"

Feder glanced at Levier, who appeared in the distance, "No, the rest of the power belongs to Duke Yannis, who is the rightful ruler of this principality. Whether it is me or Count Endrida, we serve the Duke of Yanis, but Count Endrida has misbehaved and his nephew Sir Herman has also reported him, otherwise we would not have been able to take command of the army of the Dulum City. ”

Jados raised his head, breathed a long sigh of relief, and kept nodding his head and said: "Okay, anyway, there is only a little bit left in the Duchy of Magini, and it doesn't make much difference who commands the army, even if the old duke is alive, he can't do anything." ”

"Will Lord Sir fight alongside us?"

Li Wei, who approached, also chimed in: "Please join us, we need all the remaining strength, and a little more strength will have a better chance of winning!"

Jados laughed twice, he drew his sword and immediately withdrew it, "Since I chose to appear here, I have already made up my mind to fight those enemies to the death! I and my men will not listen to you mercenaries! But we are already on the same side. ”
