Borromeo's blood has seeped into the bones of the entire Orlanque Empire, and the empire is immortal, and Borromeo lives forever. - "The History of the Borromeo Family"

One car, two servants, three or five retinues, Richie and Monnie's travel can be described as very simple. It's just that these three or five followers are not simple, Grus Gawain and Foytek, plus the four Earth Bear Knights at the peak of the ninth order, looking at the entire world of truth, they are also the top match.

As for why he brought Monnie, this guy just wanted to travel.

The entire Great Plains of the Northland is shrouded in a large river, which is the Zhishui River. This river meanders through almost all parts of the Northland, and is the blood of the entire Northland, after hundreds of years of diversion and digging by the Swan family, it now bears the irrigation and drinking needs of tens of millions of people. It can be said to be the mother river of the entire Northland.

Richie could see that everyone in the team respected the river, and every time he crossed, Grus Gawain would put away his laziness and take his men with him to worship the river once and again.

From the first crossing of the Zhishui River outside the south gate of Stormwind Castle, he crossed all the way five times to the southernmost point of the Duke of Swan's County, the White Wolf's Mouth.

Because it is winter, the scenery along the way is very monotonous, and although the endless silver wrap is magnificent, it will always get tired of looking at it for a long time. When you arrive at the mouth of the white wolf, the scenery is completely different.

If it weren't for the wrong direction, Richie would have almost thought it was another Amos rampart. Because the terrain is so similar. The same high mountains, the same winding canyons, the same tall and majestic military fortresses.

"Young master, the imperial barrier has arrived. ”

Gruss was obviously a little excited, pointing to the fortress entrenched like a giant beast in the distance, and introduced: "The Amos Fortress was built based on this fortress, whether it is the terrain, the internal structure, or the defensive circle, there are many similarities between the two. ”

"That's where you fought in the first place?"

"Hmm. ”

Gawain obviously didn't want to talk about this topic, and it was right to think about it, stepping on the corpses of his comrades to forge his prestige might be an honor in the eyes of others, but in his own eyes, it was probably a shame.

The defender of the Imperial Fortress was not in the city, and Richie and his party rested in the fortress for the night, cleaned the dust for half a month, and continued on the road early the next morning.

The name White Wolf's Mouth refers to the area of the canyon between the Imperial Fortress and the Northern Fortress, describing the treacherous terrain here as if it were a wolf's mouth.

The border between the two forts is interesting, with the Northland and the Imperial side each setting up a checkpoint on the central line. Richie's convoy was escorted by the Earth Bear Knights, and the soldiers of the Northland saluted with reverence at the sight of the Gawain Five, while the Empire, on the contrary, nervously approached the enemy.

"Stop, get checked!"

The Imperial guard looked young, only in his twenties, and his expression was quite calm, and after scolding his flustered men, he stopped Ritchie's convoy.

Gawain's expression was completely different from when he was in the Northland, he raised his horsewhip and slapped it directly in the face of the guard, and then spat at the open wound: "Blind your dog's eyes?!The heir of the Swan family, His Excellency Rich Swan, was invited by the imperial family to be a guest, why don't you hurry up and let your city lord come to greet you?!"

"Wow, Uncle Gruss, you're so handsome as a villain!"

A domineering man with a girl, full of villain.

The four Earth Bear Knights even brutally swept all the horses at the checkpoint away, clearing a path for Richie's carriage and sailing away.

The young guard watched the convoy pass in front of him, and saw his fists clenched and his eyes cracked, but he waved his hand and asked his men to go and report.

Richie felt that if he was the guard just now, he would definitely draw his sword.

"Gruss, why did you do that?"

"That guy just now is very talented, and high-level warriors around twenty-five years old are not seen in our Northland. And being able to be sent to the front line shows that he has a bright future. I wanted to provoke him to do it first, and then use that as a reason to kill him to prevent future troubles. ”

"Eh~ Is this good? Is this a violation of chivalry?"

Rich now feels more and more like a villain in the entire Swan Duchy. From the perspective of the empire, a territory in the country has always refused to obey the orders of the royal family, never paid taxes, and the people who came out were all domineering, and from time to time they had to fight with the empire.

Originally, Richie thought that Gawain would at least be ashamed, but who knew that this guy actually said confidently: "Of course it doesn't violate chivalry." The core of chivalry is protection, honor, sacrifice, valor and mercy. I took pity on the women and children, fought bravely, dared to sacrifice, and vowed to spend my life keeping the Northland safe. That guy just now is a big threat to the Northlands in the future, what's the harm if you can take the opportunity to get rid of it?"

If you don't accept the wall, I'll accept you! I can still explain it like this, but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

Compared with the Amos Barrier, the terrain on this side of the White Wolf's Pass is more treacherous, the road is built on a cliff, one side is a cliff, the other side is a cliff, rugged and winding, and the narrowness is abnormal.

Richie 'enjoyed' the bumps and laughed at himself, "How did my ancestors get out of this ravine back then?

Fighting a war requires logistics, and although there are all kinds of space props in this world, Richie believes that all supplies cannot be completely loaded by space props. This broken road simply does not have the conditions to become the lifeline of a large legion.

"No, young master, the original white wolf's mouth is actually quite wide, but in recent years, our strength has been growing, and the south of the empire is very unstable, they are afraid that we will counterattack, and they have spent a lot of effort to transform it into this. ”

"Unstable in the South?"

Gawain had a smile on his face: "Yes, the royal family is too strict, it has provoked a popular rebellion, there has been a rebellion, and it is very strong, it has been fighting for seven years, it is said that the legion that the royal family went to suppress has lost 50,000 people, and it is still continuing to be consumed." ”

"This so-called 'very strong' is one of us, right?"

Richie doesn't believe that the so-called popular uprising will have much strength, and it is impossible that there is no catty behind it.

"Haha, the young master is wise. In fact, our family is not involved much, and it is mainly the Borromeo family who operates, after all, they are the head snakes of the south. ”

It's this Borromeo again!

Someone hated the family very much, because the "Borromeo Family History" was particularly thick. This is not to say how long the history of the Borromeo family is, but that this family is a rich family, with many branches, and the internal relations are quite complicated, and he still has not figured it out.
