372 No more cover-up
When Duke said this, it was not too much to describe it as shocking the four seats, because everyone did not expect that Duke would say such a thing as the Ice Demon himself.
You must know that when the Ice Demon was at its worst, not only did it conquer Storm Castle, but it also relied on the help of the Holy See Army that the French Empire repelled the attack of the Ice Demon. You must know that this is only to repel the attack of the Ice Demon, and what Duke said is to take the initiative to attack Storm Castle so that they cannot survive, this news is really shocking.
Sure enough, at this time, Teucer said with a disdainful face: "The style of our Otto family is pragmatic, Duke, you are bragging too much." ”
As soon as Teucer said this, although the generals of the Lion Army in the camp did not directly agree with Tocke's words, it could be seen from their expressions and demeanors that they agreed with what Teucer said. Because this matter is too tortuous and bizarre, no matter how strong the storm army is, it is impossible to defeat the ice demon, according to the combat effectiveness of the army of the average small lord, don't think about fighting a positional battle with the ice demon without an army of 50,000, the entire storm castle does not even have 50,000 people, can there still be a storm army of 50,000?
"Second brother, I don't know if you have ever heard of the word frog at the bottom of the well, if you have never walked out of the bottom of the well, the sky he sees is only as big as the mouth of the well. ”
"What did you say?"
Although Teucer had not heard of the idiom of the frog at the bottom of the well, he could understand from Duke's explanation that it was definitely not a good word. In front of so many fierce generals, being ridiculed like Duke like this, Tork naturally felt unbearable, and even couldn't restrain his emotions a little.
Jealousy is really easy to overwhelm people's reason, in fact, according to Teucer's character, this kind of meaningless ridicule is definitely not something his style will do. It was because he saw that the Five Thousand Storm Army was actually well-equipped and well-disciplined, which made him feel very unbalanced in his heart. You must know that after several years of development, there are only 8,000 people in your Maple Leaf Army, and if you don't count any retinue and servant army, the people who can really go to the battlefield are 5,000 people!
Of course, the equipment of the Maple Leaf Army is not lagging behind the five thousand Storm Army, because Teucer took advantage of his identity to get a lot of timely equipment from the military depot in the northern camp, and he can even support the Crazy Shark Sea Clan, so naturally his own Maple Leaf Army cannot lack equipment.
In addition to these, more important is Duke Otto's attitude towards Duke, which is the fuse that triggers Tocke's jealousy. He already had an ominous premonition in his heart, if Duke really stayed in the northern defense line for a long time, then his father would definitely pay attention to him, and even restore some relations with Duke, so that he could also get a piece of the pie in the Duchy of Berry.
That's why Teucer made sarcastic remarks, hoping to use the pressure of the Ice Demon to get Duke to roll back to his Storm Castle sooner, so that his father's eyes would not be on this guy.
It's just that he didn't expect that Duke was completely less low-key than when he saw him before, and even the current he could be described as arrogant. directly refuted and satirized his second brother, and he didn't put himself in his eyes at all!
"I said, Second Brother, you know too little about Storm Castle, do you think if I don't have enough strength, I will send five thousand Storm Army? ”
After Duke said this, he even sneered twice, from the moment he decided to send the Storm Force on an expedition, he understood that the strength of the Storm Fortress could not be concealed in the future. Since it can't be concealed, then don't hide it, and simply let the entire Fran Empire see the strength of Stormcastle.
In many cases, although the lion flag of the Otto family is easy to use, others see more of Duke Otto's face than Duke's strength. From now on, Duke wants others to know that even without his father, Duke Otto, Storm Castle is still a formidable existence in the French Empire, even a formidable existence!
Duke's words directly choked Tok and didn't know what to say, he couldn't be stupid enough to think that Duke was lying at this time, which would only be laughed at. It's just that he really can't figure out how Storm Castle has developed so quickly, and how powerful it has become.
Teucer didn't speak, but Duke Otto asked, "Duke, you said earlier that Storm Castle has begun to attack the Ice Demon Territory, what the hell is going on?"
This is not only the question of Duke Otto, but also the question of all the Lion Army generals here, because for public and private, if Duke can suppress the ice demons in the Valley of Monsters, it will be a matter of excitement and pride for the Fran Empire and the Otto family.
In today's crisis-ridden situation, the French Empire no longer has the ability to deal with the attack of the Southern Ice Demon with its troops. And if the Ice Demon, a creature that can be called the mortal enemy of mankind, can be suppressed or eliminated, it will be a blessing for all humans.
"That's right, Father, Storm Castle now has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and there are also dwarf legions and fish-man legions, since last winter, Storm Fort has been reactionary in the winter counterattack, changing its previous defense, and directly attacking the Monster Valley in the Ice Demon Territory. And successfully repelled the main force of the Ice Demon. ”
"Now Storm Castle has built a series of sentry towers in the Monster Valley, and if it is feasible in the future, I even plan to build a fortress in the Monster Valley, so that I can completely control the Monster Valley, and also ensure the safety of Storm Castle forever. The plague of the Ice Demon that has been in the Storm Castle for a hundred years will be completely solved in the coming time!"
Duke said this in a very proud tone, it is definitely a proud thing to be able to solve the attack of the ice demon that has been a disaster for a hundred years.
Of course, Storm Castle has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, this is the ingredient of Duke's boasting, anyway, now they can't verify it, don't brag or blow it, today Duke has made up his mind to make these people who once looked down on Storm Castle impressed!
There is also the fact that Duke specially changed his name to his father, and Duke had already made a decision to come to the Duchy of Berry and only call him Lord Duke, not his father. Because Duke felt from the bottom of his heart that Duke Otto was not worthy of being called a slap father!
But now for the sake of Qi Tok, Duke has changed his previous mind, anyway, it won't be a big loss to shout a few times, maybe there will be unexpected benefits, and this kind of thing is no longer suitable for people with the status of a lord, what should be done.
