410 Young Shadow

People are often like this, Duke Otto himself can decide the life and death of Duke, but it is difficult to accept the persecution of one of his sons by another. But as Duke had expected, even if Teucer did do this, Duke Otto would make a choice at this moment.

Because the Duchy of Berry and the Lion Army need to open a situation, and now Teucer has given the key to open the situation. More importantly, Duke is insignificant compared to the Duchy of Berry and the Lion Army.

"Now that I know about this, I'll thoroughly investigate who is telling the truth, so don't argue at the meeting.

After saying this official routine, Duke Otto looked at Duke and said, "Duke, I know that your development in Storm Castle is difficult, and there may be some misunderstandings here. Soon it will be time to attack the barbarians, and if you lack anything for the Storm Army, I will provide it to you. ”

Duke Otto's words can be regarded as appeasing Duke, and it can be regarded as expressing the hidden apology in his heart, after all, it is his own son who is standing in front of him.

Although Duke never had the hope that Duke Otto would punish Teucer, he still felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart when he heard that Duke Otto really passed by like this.

So Duke looked at Duke Otto on the throne, and then said coldly: "No need, the Storm Army has always relied on itself, and so am I." ”

Hearing Duke's words, if it was him when he was young, it is estimated that he would have been slapped directly, maybe because of his age, Duke Otto actually chuckled in his heart, looking at Duke who was stubbornly standing in place, and there was an indescribable discomfort in his heart.

"Oh well. ”

Duke Otto sighed, then changed the subject and continued: "The offensive plan of the Northern Legion, Princess Jina has already told you, this is the offensive plan led by Marquis Patton, and it is also the way to break the deadlock under the current situation of the Empire, and you will be in charge of the defense line on the right flank at that time. ”

"However, I have been thinking about it for a long time during this time, although Marquis Patton has an agreement with the Hans Empire, and has also communicated with the high-level of the Holy See, but I am not at ease with the promise of the Hans Empire, if they betray the promise, the Storm Army will be attacked from both sides. ”

"If you accept, I will let your eldest brother lead the Silver Moon Army to support the right flank of the Storm Army, so that even if the Hans Empire wants to flank the Storm Army, you will have the strength to fight, at least enough troops to fight back to the Alakou Fortress. ”

Originally, Duke came to the lion army camp this time completely on behalf of revenge and disgust, but he never expected that Duke Otto would actually say such a sentence, he would be worried about the safety of the storm army, so he sent the Baker Silver Moon Army to help?

If it were to be replaced by other legions of the Lion Army, Duke would probably have the greatest malicious guess that Duke Otto was not acting like a show, doing superficial work. If there was a real attack, the Lion Army general would run away, so that Duke Otto could not only help the Storm Army, but also throw the blame for the escape to the so-called Lion Army general.

But he sent Baker's Silver Moon Army, which made Duke unable to find any problems. Because he also understands Baker's character, this guy is the pride in his bones, and it is impossible to do something like a deserter. And even if it is to carry the black cauldron, it is impossible to throw this black cauldron to the future Duke of the Duchy of Berry, which will be a huge blow to Baker's prestige.

"You asked the Silver Moon Army to come and help me?"

Duke asked a little uncertainly, from Duke Otto's words, he could probably hear that he should not know the real conspiracy of Marquis Barton, otherwise he would not have put Baker in danger. It's just that Duke still can't believe that this titular "father" will really worry about helping him.

"Is there any problem, the Storm Force is also part of the Empire, and I naturally have an obligation to protect the right flank line. ”

After Duke Otto said this, he opened his mouth again to say something, but in the end he did not say it, because the other thing he wanted to say was: "You are also my son, and it is my father's duty to ensure your safety." ”

It's just that he suddenly felt that he might not have that qualification to say this to Duke.

Hearing Duke Otto's words, Duke just smiled faintly and replied: "No need, the Storm Army has enough strength to ensure the safety of the right flank, thank you Lord Duke for your kindness." ”

In the face of Duke's polite refusal, Duke Otto's face also showed a rare wry smile. Just as he was about to say something, Baker, who had been standing aside and had not spoken, spoke.

"Duke, don't be too confident, the Storm Army is indeed good, but the Hans Empire is stronger. Once they have annihilated the Storm Army, the next step is to contract with the barbarians to force the main Imperial Army, and not to ignore the safety of the entire Northern Legion. ”

"Big brother, if we switch places, will you let the Storm Army help your Silver Moon Army?"

Duke asked rhetorically, in fact, in addition to Duke's own plan, there is also a point of dignity and competitiveness. In a sense, Duke and Baker are the same kind of people, both advocating absolute strength, so Duke will ignore some of Tocke's tricks.

So Duke won't admit that his Storm Army can't do it, and he won't ask for help from others. For this point, Duke thinks that Baker's psychology is actually the same as his own, so he asks such a rhetorical question.

"No, because my Silver Moon Army is stronger. ”

Baker didn't have the slightest muddy Chinese, and said this simply and rudely. To be honest, when Duke heard this, he couldn't help but have the urge to applaud, this kid deserves to carry out the title of genius boy to the end, and even the answer is so domineering and arrogant.

"I have the same reason as you, the Storm Army is strong, stronger than you think!"

After Duke said this, he turned to look at Duke Otto and said, "Lord Duke, if there is nothing to do, I will go back to the storm camp first." Soon the offensive will begin, and there are more things, so I will take my leave. ”

After all that is said. Duke didn't care what Duke Otto's answer was, and turned and left the tent.

Looking at Duke's back as he left, Duke Otto's mood was complicated, because he had a completely different feeling from Duke's last confident words. This feeling is completely different from the little son who was scared when he saw him in the imperial capital, and even resigned himself to it.

At that moment, he even saw a shadow of his own youth, a feeling that had only been seen in Baker before.
