Just as Duke was about to walk away, Baker suddenly shouted to Duke: "You just said that if you don't betray the Imperial Army and the Lion Army, then you will face the same fate, did someone give the route map of the Storm Army to the Barbarians or the Hans Empire?"

Hearing Baker's question behind him, Duke grabbed the reins, glanced back at Baker, and only replied faintly, "What do you think?"

There is no need to say this kind of thing at all, the reason is actually very simple, Duke has no evidence, the Hans Empire will not give him evidence, and the French Emperor Henry VII will not be stupid to leave any written evidence.

In other words, there is no way to prove this kind of thing, saying it is the same as not saying it, and more importantly, that the things that Duke said did not happen, and then the Marquis of Barton can completely say that this is slander, just don't admit it.

In fact, Duke leaked that the route map of the Lion Army and the Imperial Army is similar to that, after all, they don't have any evidence. But the status of the two sides is completely different, as long as the Marquis of Patton, and even Duke Otto insist that Duke's storm army is the betrayer, they can basically sit on Duke's charges, not to mention that it is, even if it is not done by Duke, they say yes must be.

Listening to Duke's slightly meaningful words, Baker's heart suddenly contradicted himself, according to his previous emotions, Duke was a traitor to the Otto family and a traitor to the French Empire. But for some reason, he suddenly felt that the subconscious in his heart was believing what Duke said, that is, someone had revealed the march route of the Storm Army, and Duke was only doing this to protect himself.

Where this trust came from, Baker himself couldn't tell. Baker himself didn't believe in this word, before he saw Duke again outside Andorra, Baker had forgotten that he had such a younger brother, even if he was studying at the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy, Baker never took the initiative to meet Duke, and even felt that this younger brother was a disgrace to the Otto family, and others did not dare to face Duke's name in front of Baker.

But it was this relationship that actually made him willing to believe what Duke said, perhaps because of Duke's performance with the Storm Army, which had made Baker have a kind of respect and trust, and the strong often disdained to tell some childish lies.

Duke returned to the Storm Army camp and gathered all the Storm Army leaders together, because he had something very important to announce.

"Allen, Carl, and Dore, we are going to return to the storm camp soon, and there will definitely be a big shock to the entire Imperial Northern Army after the war this time, and the incident of the siege of the Lion Army and the Imperial Army will definitely be investigated. This means that our previous plans do not stand up to scrutiny, and they will basically confirm them very quickly. ”

After Duke said this, Alan answered, "Lord Lord, do you mean that the Imperial Army or the Lion Army are likely to turn against us next?"

"That's right, it can even be said that it is not very possible, but it is a sure thing, this kind of scene of huge casualties, there must be someone to take responsibility, maybe I will be convicted on the spot. ”

After Duke finished speaking, he paused and continued: "That's why I called you together, if they make any moves to arrest me, the Storm Army will storm the Imperial Army camp as soon as possible, rescue me, and then break through to Storm Castle with the whole army." ”

As soon as Duke's words fell, Karl replied directly: "Lord Lord, since the meeting you are waiting for is so dangerous, then simply don't participate, I will immediately send someone to inform the 1,000 logistics troops of the Alakou Fortress, and we will rush back to Storm Castle directly!"

In the face of Carl's suggestion, Duke directly shook his head and replied: "Although we did it, but just go back like this, then I am afraid of the crime and absconded, isn't it to confirm our crimes?"

The Buddha fights for a stick of incense, and people fight for a breath, if he runs away like this, then any dirty water can be poured on the storm army at that time. Even if it is to turn the other cheek, Duke will expose the disgusting plan of Henry VII and Marquis Patton, as for the world to believe it or not, it is up to them, but if they don't say it, then it will definitely become a stain on the storm army, and the reputation of treason is really not good.

"My lord, as your personal bodyguard, I don't approve of such a risky move!"

Storm Guard Officer Dole also expressed his opinion, what he wanted to ensure was Duke's absolute safety, and it was too risky to do so.

"The risk is very high, but we are not completely sure, in the current state of the Imperial Army, even if there are many people, it is still difficult to stop our Storm Army. Moreover, the Lion Army also suffered heavy casualties, and it was impossible for Duke Otto to directly lead the Lion Army to the camp of the Imperial Army, and there were also contradictions between the Duchy of Berry and the French Empire. ”

"So as long as we are well prepared and take the Imperial Army by surprise, the biggest risk here is actually the Storm Guard, maybe you will encounter many masters of the Imperial Army in the process of guarding. ”

Hearing Duke's hesitation, Dole replied without hesitation: "The Storm Guardian is not afraid of any enemy, and your safety, Lord Lord, is the greatest duty of our Storm Guardian!"

In the face of Dole's answer, Duke was also very pleased, after all, the Storm Guardian was the most loyal escort team selected by the Storm Army, there was no doubt about it. At the same time, Duke is a little nostalgic for the little witches in Stormcastle at this time, and if Rose or Alice are here, it will be much easier to evacuate using spatial magic or illusion.

After everything was arranged, Duke led the army to the storm camp, because the situation was not very critical, the distance of forty kilometers, the storm army walked for two days, and it was a respite.

As soon as he returned to Camp Storm, Duke received a message from Princess Gina asking him to attend a military meeting in the Imperial Army camp to summarize the issue of the sortie. This was also expected by Duke, and at the same time as receiving the message, the entire Storm Army camp was in motion, and even the former Storm Logistics Army stationed at the Alakou Fortress was evacuated.

In this situation, the Hans Empire and the barbarians will not launch any more attacks, and take a step back and say that Duke himself is unable to protect himself, and he still cares about the Alakou Fortress. Therefore, the entire Storm Army is secretly best prepared for battle, and is on standby near the Imperial Army camp, ready to fight at any time!
