Chapter 322: Take the initiative
Leo glanced at King Pique and the ministers in the palace hall, and suddenly said loudly: "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the Paris Empire, this is actually nothing more than a soldier coming to block the water and cover the earth." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoNo matter how much the Paris Empire struggles with the coalition forces, it may not be able to defeat the united Lorraine!"
Leo's words made King Pique's eyes flash, and when he heard Leo say this, he couldn't help but ask hopefully, "Duke Leo, do you have any good ways to deal with it?"
At this time, almost everyone in the hall looked at Leo with hopeful eyes, and he had almost become a lifesaver for everyone. Leo looked around and saw that he had become the center of attention of the main hall, and took a deep breath and said, "Actually, it's very simple, since the Paris Empire must kill us, then we can't just sit still. There is a saying that if you keep it for a long time, you will lose, so we must turn passive into active. This time, we took the initiative and caught the Parisians off guard!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the hope on the faces of everyone in the hall immediately disappeared, and one by one they turned into a depressed look with their heads bowed and drooping their armor. Jia Laman glanced at Leo, who was full of confidence, and said with a wry smile: "Duke Leo, if the magician group is still there, how can we be so embarrassed? Now that the Kingdom of Lorraine has no power to fight back, it is not easy to take the initiative to attack! Moreover, when the royal family first returned to the royal city, the people have just returned to their homes, the farmers need to hurry up to harvest the grain, the handicraft workshop needs to be restarted, everything has to start from scratch, and there is no power to resist, let alone fight back. ā
After Jaraman finished speaking, King Pique's breath on the throne was a little thicker, and he looked at Leo expectantly, hoping to hear the words he expected from his mouth. did not disappoint King Pique, in the face of Jalaman's bitter face, Leo patted his chest and said: "Since I am already the Duke of Lorraine, I will naturally share my worries for Lorraine, I don't need a single soldier from the royal city, I will take the initiative with my legion to attack first, take Pritz City first, and then I can hold the Dragon Mountain Range and directly threaten the border of Paris." ā
Sure enough, King Peake thought to himself, and he couldn't help but admire his dead father even more. The wise King Fairman had foreseen this situation for a long time, so he made Pritz City a fief of Leo's principality, and let Leo, who was able to attack and fight well, guard the country for Lorraine, so that the Kingdom of Lorraine had a respite under the pressure of the Paris Empire.
"Okay! Duke Leo who killed the three major knights of Paris, with Duke Leo here, the Kingdom of Lorraine does not have to fear any threat from the Paris Empire!" King Pique held Leo in his words, and at the same time knocked Leo's words to death, not giving him any chance to repent and change his words.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as I am here, I will never let the Parisians be arrogant!" Leo took on the task of dealing with the Paris Empire.
This is also what he thought about before he came to the palace to participate in the proceedings, anyway, his fate is now tied to the Kingdom of Lorraine, if the Parisians enter Lorraine, the first person to be killed is probably Leo, so instead of sitting back and waiting, it is better to take the initiative, anyway, Leo has a complete legion in his hand to rely on. Therefore, Leo simply boasted in front of King Pique, at least to let King Pique know his courage and strength, lest he have any crooked thoughts like Raymond.
Just as Leo was returning to his garrison outside the city and was about to gather his soldiers to prepare for the attack, he suddenly received news that Sidney had returned with the remnants of the Rose Knights.
Seeing Leo again, Sidney's eyes were extremely complicated, and in order to avoid a head-on confrontation with the Knights of Paris Thunder, she chose to go to Swan Castle to gather the old order. But he didn't expect that the Thunder Knights would once again fall into the hands of Leo, and the royal city of Lorraine would be decided in one day, such a record was almost unbelievable to Sidney.
Surprise, shame, and adoration all blended into Sidney's watery eyes, and seeing the man walking towards him, Sidney suddenly felt a little at a loss, not knowing what to do or what to say.
"Sidney, welcome back, is this the knight of your Rose Knights?" Leo greeted Sidney with a smile as he kept looking at the knights behind Sidney. The Rose Knights also looked at Leo, the man who defeated the three knights of Paris, with different eyes of curiosity, disgust, and resentment.
Hearing Leo's question, Sidney, who had just woken up from a dream, suddenly said: "Oh, yes, these knights are all rose knights stationed in Swan Castle at that time, and now they are all led by Captain Dicarus. ā
Leo greeted the Rose Knights very kindly, and was not unhappy by the Rose Knights' rudeness. Whether these rose knights want to or not, they will be Leo's subordinates in the future, and hundreds of knights who are skilled in martial arts and horsemanship are also a big help for Leo, at least they can be summoned by him a few times. With the addition of the Rose Knights, Leo is more certain about taking Pritz City.
Although the Goblin Legion did not use a single stitch of the Lorrainians in the Lorraine King City, just the baggage, weapons and equipment left by the Parisians made them earn a lot of money. The unceremonious goblins cleaned all the supplies of the Parisians, leaving not a single nail for the Lorraine. With the large amount of supplies that Captain Karl had painstakingly hoarded in the royal city to prepare for the defense of the city, Leo also had the capital to establish a principality of his own.
For this time to capture Plitz City, Leo plans to rely on the airdrop ability of the Royal Griffin to send a small number of Wei soldiers into Plitz City, and raid and open the city gate to capture the city. The massive Goblin Legion was reduced to a baggage force, responsible for transporting captured supplies.
Under Leo's orders, the Goblin Legion scattered all over the mountains set out on the journey to Pritz City with large bags and small bags on their shoulders. Leo led his human legions to Pritz City as fast as they could, to catch them off guard before Pritz City could get the news.
Although Captain Karl transferred all the Paris soldiers in Lorraine, the defenders of Pritz City, as an important city designated by His Majesty the Emperor Paris, did not pay attention to Captain Karl's transfer and still maintained their garrison.
Two thousand Paris soldiers were enough to defend a city that lived off the resources produced by the Dragon Mountains, but this time their opponent was Leo!
