In Bradley's tent, Avi and Eggsy both stood straight, all of them looking at the Grand Prince in silence, waiting for his decision. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Since the queen is hosting a banquet herself, I still need to make a trip," Bradley's poison had healed, but the palm of his left hand was still bandaged with gauze, and he had lost two fingers forever, "but we must also be prepared for anything, this may be an opportunity." ”

In addition to the three subordinates that Avi knew, there were three other people standing in the tent that Avi was not very familiar with. One of the three came from the west with reinforcements, his name was Marcelo, and he was a middle-aged man with enthusiasm and heroism. One was a logistics officer at Bradley Barracks, his name was William, and he was a short young man, but he acted steadily, nodding his head every time he met Avi, but never talking about things in depth. There is also a female knight named Lola, who seems to have a close relationship with Gadia, and is a close subordinate of Princess Winlith, who is responsible for commanding and controlling the armies that are delivered to the eldest prince.

"The eldest prince, with all due respect, we should make a decision and be ready to seize the queen faction and the third prince faction before the banquet, this is a rare opportunity, and success can solve everything in one fell swoop. "The knight Lola was dressed in crimson plate armor, her light yellow hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked a bit like Miranda from behind, but her appearance was much worse than Miranda's, especially her big mouth that could speak with a big grin.

Laura's words were nodded in agreement by most of the generals, only William shook his head, but William did not say his opinion, this tight-mouthed logistics officer is also responsible for handling the affairs of the mercenary group, and is busier than most of his subordinates.

Eggsy said: "Prince Amsoil has been safely delivered to Salt Harbor, we have no worries, as long as we strike first, then we can seize the initiative!"

Seeing that Bradley didn't say anything, Fenrir immediately chimed in: "Maybe Rosemande, Gronos and the others have already set up a trap, just wait for us to attend the banquet and wipe us out!

Avi is a new subordinate, he feels that he has no right to speak, and several other generals who have expressed their position have spoken out of Avi's heart - taking advantage of the opportunity of the other party's banquet to preemptively seize all those who are threatened.

"Fame and morality are not things I care about, and I will not be blinded by the temporary peace of the present. I'm not hesitant to strike first, because the queen has already made a preemptive strike, and the invitation she sent to the banquet has already doomed her to the initiative," Bradley's words made Fenrir and the others feel happy in their hearts, "If I don't go, I will only be caught by them, and if I participate in the banquet, I will also be in danger of being ambushed." ”

All the generals fell into deep thought, Bradley obviously thought more deeply, perhaps he had already thought of a preemptive strike before the banquet invitation was delivered, or perhaps because the time had not come, Bradley did not act. Avi remembered the "Blood Banquet Incident" that happened in Evon City before, and that kind of thing would definitely make everyone at the banquet wary of each other, even if no one said anything, everyone would think that this banquet was fraudulent.

"I propose to divide the army into two places, one side to monitor Walter's army of sixty thousand, and the other to watch over Mallot. And we will select the best soldiers to follow His Royal Highness the Prince to the banquet, and then contact the funeral mercenary group..."

Hearing the name of the funeral mercenary group, Bradley shook his head, "Owen has already left the barracks and taken a large amount of money with him, if we hire them again, we will not have enough funds, and besides, I don't think they will be needed for this time." "Avi didn't know how much the funeral mercenary group was paid, but it must have been a lot of money. Avi also wanted to ask a little more about the funeral mercenary group, but everyone else was secretive about this mercenary group.

"Indeed, we don't need any funeral mercenary groups, those guys should be our enemies!" Fenrir shook his head with his eyes closed, "When we calm the current chaos, they will be our first target." ”

Bradley did not respond to Fenrir's words, he continued: "Just according to Gadia's proposal to divide the army into two places, Laura you command 30,000 soldiers to monitor Walter's army, and if they make any changes, find a way to contain them. ”

"Understood. ”

"Fenrir, you command the remaining soldiers and mercenaries to keep them close to the Black and White River, and be sure to take care of concealment and not act rashly. If it goes well, neither of you needs to do anything. ”

Fenrir frowned and said, "Your Royal Highness, I want to follow you!"

"It's okay, the new Knights of the Iron Wall will follow me into Mallot, and even if Walter and Rosemand think I'm sending sheep to the tiger's mouth, I'll still have the confidence to take them down in one fell swoop. ”

Eggsy patted his chest, "Rest assured that the new Knights of the Iron Wall will be handed it over, the greater the risk, the greater the reward, and my sword will be enough to cut through their trap!"

Bradley looked at Avi, "Avi, what do you think?"

Avi was startled, and the other subordinates also looked at Avi, "I... I think the Queen's faction would have guessed that we were prepared, and so did Prince Walter. I heard that those border nobles also came with two of them, and if they want to join forces..."

Marcelo: "According to our intelligence, the border nobles and the queen's faction do not have any friendship, and they have come alone, without bringing an army, so it is not a problem. ”

"Walter and Rosemand are not united, they have different positions, but they have the same goal, and we need to beware of Walter more than Queen Rosemund, who is a hypocrite. "Winlith's knightess, Lola, clearly has a prejudice against Walter.

Although the rest of Bradley's subordinates were very optimistic about this plan, and they were not afraid of the possible pitfalls, Avi was still very worried, and Avi always felt that the people on the Prince's side had become the most obvious targets, and as long as the queen's faction had the intention to plot against them, they would suffer a big loss.

Bradley stood up and walked up to Avi with a smile, "Avi, you have to understand, I don't want the Kingdom of Sallins to continue to lose its future due to the struggle for power, even if Queen Rosemand does not propose this banquet, I will find a way to change the status quo as soon as possible, instead of waiting for my father's condition to improve." Walter and the ambitious frontier nobles aside, the Queen's faction must be my enemies, they control everything around my father, and I must find an opportunity to eradicate them. ”

"Even if you know it's dangerous... Do you have to do it in this banquet?" Avi was the only one who was still hesitating, and the eyes of the other subordinates had already shown their determination, and no one chose to retreat.

"This may not be the best chance, but it is the quickest opportunity," the queen set up the feast three days later in the evening, "and it is impossible for our army and Walter's army to face each other for too long, which will only increase the chances of victory for the queen's faction, so I trust you, and I trust you to help me with my plan." ”

Bradley's earnest words finally convinced Avi that all those in the tent were determined to put an end to the strife in the capital three nights later, and to put an end to the confusion of power caused by the king's serious illness.

Everyone received their own tasks, and Avi had only one mission, which was to be by Bradley's side. Avi was joined by the Knights of the New Iron Wall and Gadia, who had never been to Mallot, and the unknown Marcelo, disguised as a merchant and tasked with sneaking into the city first. Since no spies have been placed in the capital, all information about the city can only be collected in the next few days. Avi was also allowed to enter the city, but Avi decided to stay in the barracks for the rest of the day, not to tell the innocent Fan and the red-haired girl who had done so much for herself.

"Actually, I don't have a bottom in my heart," Fenrir said after blowing out the candle, "As His Royal Highness the Prince said, we are sending sheep into the tiger's mouth, Rosemund, Gronos and others are ready to ambush us, we are in the light, they are in the dark, no matter how heroic the new Knights of the Iron Wall are, we have little chance." ”

Fenrir, who seemed to be the most determined, would say such a thing, and Avi, who had been feeling a little sleepy, immediately woke up.

"In that case, why did His Royal Highness the Prince and we insist on betting on this one after three days?"

"There's a lot of things you don't know, Avi, and that's Bradley's ambitions. ”

"I..."

"Yes, you're just a new recruit to our faction. Let me tell you directly, Bradley has only one ideal, and that is to revive the kingdom of Sahlins. As for whether he is a prince or not, it doesn't matter to him whether he is a king or not, as long as the person in power can lead the kingdom of Salins. I can say with certainty that Bradley has never been a selfish person, including everything. ”

Only then did Avi realize his narrow-mindedness. I only hope that Prince Bradley can ascend to the throne, but the eldest prince himself has a more lofty ideal - in front of the individual and the country, everyone will say that the interests of the country are above all else, but there are very few people who can really do this, and those who can do it often do not talk about such things.

"It's like tonight, Bradley did something else. "Fenrir addresses his Highness as if he were a friend.

"Tonight, isn't His Royal Highness already asleep?"

"No, he went to meet Walter, and he went to the other party's barracks unsuspectingly, without any escort, and only by himself. ”

Avi was completely stunned, cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and a feeling of suffocation appeared in his chest.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, he..."

"He made it a condition to give up the throne in the hope of getting the opportunity to join forces with Walter. ”
