327 was surprised

Seeing the shocked expression on Duke Otto's face, Count Fleck asked curiously, "Lord Duke, is there something wrong with the defense line?"

Hearing Count Fleck's words, Duke Otto woke up from his shock, shook his head and replied: "It's not a matter of the defense line, it's my youngest son Duke, and the storm army under his command intends to accept refugees from the territory of the principality. ”

"Duke wants to accept refugees?"

Fleck was also full of surprise at this time, you must know that Storm Castle is in the southern part of the Andorran Princely Kingdom, and almost the entire Andorran Princely Kingdom with the Principality of Berry, he actually ordered the Storm Army to accept refugees in the Principality of Berry?

Not to mention what the intention of accepting refugees is, Duke can do this, which means that the Storm Army has enough expeditionary strength and can also afford the logistics of refugees, which is definitely something that a strong army can do!

Did Duke really have such a formidable storm army, and did he pay such a price to come to the territory of the Duchy to receive refugees in order to prove his strength to his father, that is, Duke Otto?

Not only Count Fleck was so surprised, but the lion army and imperial army generals present were basically extremely surprised. After the attendance, one person did not show a look of surprise, and this person was Duke's genius big brother Baker.

With Duke Otto's astonishing insight, he naturally saw the flatness on Baker's face, and remembered that Baker's Silver Moon Army seemed to have been in contact with Teucer's Storm Army before, so at this time, Duke Otto looked at Baker and asked, "Baker, you seem to have been in contact with Duke before, what is your evaluation of the Storm Army?"

"Slightly immature, but with all the foundations to be a strong army, and unbelievably luxuriously equipped. ”

Baker's words shocked others even more, because with Baker's arrogant temperament, if he can make him admit that the army is strong, it will definitely not be weak.

Hearing his eldest son say this, Duke Otto completely believed the contents of this letter, but he still couldn't understand how this uneducated son did all this in Storm Castle?

"Lord Duke, I guess Duke knows the difficulties of the northern defense line, so I will help you share the pressure of the refugees. It can be seen that Duke Gongzi is also sincere, Lord Duke, you really have three good sons. ”

Count Fleck complimented at this time, but he didn't know the real situation between Duke Otto and Duke, and he didn't know that Otto even planned to give up and sacrifice Duke to prove his loyalty and protect his family's ideas.

So hearing Fleck's flattering words, Duke Otto was expressionless, and even had a trace of embarrassment in his heart, he really didn't know much about Duke's son, and he didn't think that Duke would be as filial as Fleck said.

At this time, another general of the Imperial Army, after hearing Count Fleck's compliment, also began to pat his ass and said: "Lord Duke, I was fortunate to have seen Duke Gongzi at the princess's dinner before, it is definitely a talent, but it is flourishing in the imperial capital, even Lord Dumbledore, the president of the Royal Academy of Magic, and Lord Leonard, the cardinal of the Holy See, have made a lot of deals with Duke Gongzi, and they also took the initiative to pull him to sit beside him." ”

"And it is said that the head of the Templar sub-division, Knight Andrew, was very fond of Duke and wanted to make an exception to recruit him as a disciple. As a result, I don't know what happened that Duke Gongzi did not succeed in entering the Imperial Martial Arts Academy, and I have to say that this is also a very regrettable thing. But Duke Gongzi's talent and intelligence are beyond doubt, and he is indeed a tiger father without a dog!"

In the face of the praise of the generals of the Imperial Army, Duke Otto, who had always been moody, opened his mouth wide and was surprised, he really didn't expect that there would be such a scene at the princess's dinner, and Duke actually had such a strong network in the imperial capital.

When Teucer came back, he did not report to him the specific content of the princess's banquet, but only said that His Majesty the Emperor did not want His Royal Highness the princess to marry early, and did not choose any horses.

Just as Teucer said, the news that the imperial capital did not choose a colt came, plus the war on the northern defense line, so Duke Otto didn't ask much, after all, as a man who makes a living in the military, it is impossible to pay too much attention to this kind of thing. So he didn't know what happened at the wedding banquet, and it was impossible for him to know that Duke could have something to do with these powerful people.

When the imperial generals said this, some of the veterans of the Lion Army gasped, because they all knew what kind of situation Duke was like, that is, a son who was placed in the imperial capital as a proton, and even in a sense, the son of Duke Otto who gave up.

As a result, I didn't expect that in just over a year, Duke actually had such an exaggerated change, what happened in Storm Castle?

"Okay, I know all this, I'll talk about Duke later, let's move on to the defense. ”

Duke Otto saw that the generals below were beginning to talk about it, so he put an end to this topic, because he felt a very conflicted feeling about Duke, and as a father, he was of course happy with his son's achievement. But he is not a responsible father, and it can even be said that he is a negative textbook, so he doesn't know whether he should be happy, and he is more of an embarrassment of strangeness and ignorance to Duke.

It looks like we're going to have to keep an eye on Duke in the future to see what really happens to him. Duke Otto said a silent sentence in his heart, and he also began to have a curiosity about this strange young son.

The generals sitting below, hearing Duke Otto say this, naturally stopped the discussion and focused on the northern defense line. Because no matter how good Duke is, this is after all Duke Otto's family matter, and they don't have much to say except compliments and envy.

But there is one person who is more exceptional, he has not participated in the discussion from beginning to end, and has always sat in his position with a blank face, and this person is Baker.

As the recognized heir of Duke Otto and a gifted martial arts student of the French Empire, Duke's excellence had begun to touch his proud heart. Because apart from him, no one has really felt the combat power of the Storm Army!

Although the storm army at that time looked very young, whether it was combat effectiveness or discipline, it was far beyond the ordinary lord army, as long as it experienced more actual combat training, there would definitely be a kind of reborn change!
