Chapter 035: (Conspiracy)
Inside a tent embroidered with a wild boar figure.
"Damn," Rutgers grumbled, pacing back and forth. "Your Majesty's hem is clearly for my soldiers to be cannon fodder!"
An army of less than 1,500 men attacked Estinina, which was defended by 2,000 Rhodok soldiers, and in his opinion, it was almost no different from sending him to death! Even with the Royal Navy working together on the northwest flank, his soldiers would have to pay a great deal of casualties.
The deaths and wounds of a few hundred soldiers may not have been worth much to the king, even in the eyes of the great nobles, but they were a wound for a barren and sparsely populated baronial lord whose fiefdom was located in the northern frontier.
In response to the king's southern expedition, the young lord had to draw 400 soldiers from his domain, as well as 80 cavalry. And the defenders he left in the [Gray Guard Fort] were only more than 600 people, and the remaining soldiers in [Gosmo] were even less, less than 200 soldiers.
"Isn't the purpose of the King's expedition to the south to weaken us?" said Griffin playfully. "Neither the Earl of Berlands nor the Earl of Sweden, the two loyal old dogs of the royal family, can escape this fate, let alone you and me?"
"Are we just at his mercy?" said Rutgers, gloomily. "What does he think of us? A pawn in his hand, or a lamb to the slaughter?"
"Do you have any other way?" said Griffin, sipping on his wine. "The nobles secretly call him the butcher behind their backs, because we are the lamb to the slaughter, at his mercy. ”
"My friend, you don't have to be so pessimistic," the fat man smiled at his companion. "Isn't there a thousand knights led by your brother Knight Edward Harongoth?
"Mags, don't mention this damn wild/species to me," Rutgers' face immediately darkened. "He's just a Rhodok bastard, what qualifications does he have to command the most elite knights of the pure-blooded Svadia Kingdom?
Rutgers, along with Gylrenwell, Barron Daygrana, and Rock Dalewilliam, were among the best of the Knights of Sanctions. This proud knight, like the dreams of most knights, aspires to a higher position of honor in the Order.
Every four years, the last knightly officer of the Order of Sanction is replaced, and a replacement is chosen from among the best knights of the younger generation. Some of the replaced knight officers will be reorganized into members of the Fourth Banner Battalion, which is also the most elite Banner Battalion in the entire Order.
Gylorrowell was unusually promoted to deputy commander of the Knights of Sanctions, Barron became the commander of the First Banner Battalion, and Locke was also appointed commander of the Second Banner Battalion.
In the year that Rutgers officially became a knight from a cadet knight, Edward was still serving as an attendant to Baron Parocus, the head of the Order of Sanctions. But what he didn't expect was that a few years later, his uncle would appoint his father's wild seed as the commander of the Third Banner Battalion.
"It doesn't matter if it's a wild or a Rhodoc hybrid," Ralph Maggs said with a slick smile. "He was planted by your father. There was an interesting sarcasm in this sentence, perhaps he was taunting and insulting him in the city of Hallengosburg before taking revenge on the other party.
Seeing that Rogers was about to have a seizure, Griffin, who was sitting next to him, said, "Maggs is right, he has the blood of the Harongos family in his veins," he reminded his companion in front of him. "For you, the wild/species is also a threat!"
"Then I'll get rid of this threat," Rutgers' tone was cold. "Anyone who stands in my way must disappear from this world!"
"It's not just your words," Maggs gave the other man a disdainful look. "The skill of the wild / species is no worse than yours, the most important thing is that the knights he brought are far superior to the soldiers under your command in terms of number and strength!"
During the years of his service to the Order of Sanctions, the proud Rutgers never fought his bastard brother, and he was not even willing to stay under the same roof as his father's wild. But he had heard from other knights that the wild seed had won one against six on the training ground.
Rutgers glanced coldly at the fat man in front of him, and replied calmly, "I don't need you to tell me this, I know this better than anyone else!"
"Let's get back to business!" Griffin interrupted the conversation. "I'm sure Rutgers will have a way to get rid of the wilds!"
"I hope so!" said Maggs, in an eeriely low tone. "Dear Griffin, you're not worried at all?"
Rutgers understood what was in the other man's words. "Maggs, maybe you should worry about yourself," he said, his tone gradually becoming a little more eerie. "If you were on the battlefield, you would probably be shot into a hedgehog by Rhodok's archers!"
"I'm more worried about anything else than that!" Griffin took the two of them with a sad face!
Rutgers blurted out, "What's the matter?" From the other party's tone, he had a vague premonition.
"Dear friend, I have bad news for you!" Griffin hid his disappointment.
Rutgers looked at each other in surprise. "Is there any worse news than this?"
Once again, the little girl escaped from the killer's hands. Baron Griffin Prais sneered with some self-deprecation.
When Rutgers heard this, the expression on his face began to become dissatisfied. "Didn't you promise me that you would get rid of that kid this time?" he asked sharply. "Why did you fail again?"
"Maybe Griffin underestimated the vassals of the old bastard," the fat man interjected with some schadenfreude. "As long as you send someone to keep an eye on the little guy, there will always be a chance to make a move. ”
Rutgers walked over and turned around and walked back with a gloomy look on his face. Annoyed, he said, "I think you're overestimating the ability of those hired killers!"
"There's no doubt about the Dark Knight's strength!" Griffin retorted to him. "Who else but them can threaten the life of the little one from the protection of the giant nemesis and the intrepid little giant?"
Griffin didn't want to tell these secrets to the stupid, fat pig in front of him, but paper couldn't contain the fire. The Dark Knight is already imprisoned in the dungeon of Nimeca, and rumors of the Dark Knight's comeback will be revealed sooner or later.
Mags's face suddenly filled with shock, and he said in disbelief, "What, the Dark Knights, haven't they disappeared in Calradia?"
"The Dark Force has never left the continent of Calradia," Griffin replied with a serious face. "Instead, they are hiding in the dwarven realm that belongs underground, and maybe in the near future, they will return to Calradia!"
"Dwarf, Griffin, are you joking?" the fat man looked incredulous. "Dwarves are just like giants, just legendary beings!
"That's because you're ignorant, and you don't know that there are too many secrets in this world!" Griffin retorted. "There are not only dwarves and giants in this world, but also griffons, giant hyenas, and half-orcs, as well as many evil unknown creatures that you have never seen before!"
"How did you find them?" asked Rutgers.
"Dwarves?" Griffin asked rhetorically, touching his beard. "Or is it the entrance to the Underworld?"
"I'm talking about the Dark Knights!" Rutgers didn't want to know about the dwarf race, let alone whether the world realm under the earth really existed, he only cared about whether he could inherit the title of the Harongoth family smoothly.
"They'll be there for you when you need them!" Griffin replied nonchalantly.
"Then ask them to complete this mission!" Rutgers's tone was gloomy again. "No matter what the cost, I can accept it!"
"The Dark Knight that I hired has been captured by Baron Royce," Griffin said. "I'm afraid this will be Lord Harlangoth, and the employer behind the scenes is us!"
"Oh, shit!" Maggs cursed. "Griffin, you hired these Dark Knights in your own name?"
"It's not that I told them who I am, but that they already know who I am!"
"It's over," Rutgers whispered anxiously as he walked back and forth in a panic. "The old thing will not let us go, he will do everything to get rid of us!"
"Don't panic, the old guy won't be moving for a while," Griffin reassured. "What's more, we are in Rhodok at the moment, and he can't do anything about us!"
"Can you guarantee that the bastards won't bring their troops here?" Margus objected. "For so many years, this old bastard has been unwilling to send troops to participate in the king's southern expedition to Rhodok, but this time he sent the Knights of Sanction to participate, don't you think something is strange?"
"I've received word that Lord Craggs has gathered most of the soldiers in the Suno region and headed south, and will be staying at Harongosburg for a few days!
"You mean, your lordship is ready to act?" Rutgers lowered his voice.
