On the north side of the Red Flame Fortress, inside the Bretan Army camp. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In a large tent in the center of the Bretan military camp, a man with tan hair sat at a wooden table, and a game of war chess was placed on the table (war chess, is a unique board game on the Qinglan continent, war chess is divided into black and white, in the war chess there are kings, queens, bishops, generals, knights, soldiers and other chess pieces of different ranks, and both sides kill each other's king as a way to win)

Across the table sat a yellow-haired man in a blue robe, "Brian, your bishop can eat my knight if he takes two steps forward." The tan-haired man reminded with a smile.

"Vonse, you guy is trying to trick me again, if I eat your knight, then your queen will not destroy my chariot. The yellow-haired man snorted and raised his hand to lift a chess piece, "I need to move the chariot out of the way." The yellow-haired man named Brian stepped back three squares from the chariot on the chessboard.

"The general crosses the river. According to the rules of war chess, once the chess piece representing the general crosses the river, then the soldiers who enter the opponent's position will be automatically promoted to knight, and the knight's combat ability is stronger than that of the soldier, which will put great pressure on the opponent.

It's over, I'm afraid that I'll lose again in this game, staring at the chessboard in front of him, Brian has an anxious look on his face, and grabs his hair hard, Brian wants to think of a good move.

"Hehe, Brian, don't worry, there's a lot of time. The tan-haired man sitting opposite him reached out and took a sip of the teacup on the table, and said, the brown-haired man sitting in the big tent was the commander of the Bretin army, known as the "invincible god of the army", Voncis Varouan.

And the yellow-haired man sitting opposite Vonsis is the commander of the magic unit of the Bretan Army, the earth magister Brian, who is not only a powerful magician, but also the best friend of the commander of the Bretan Army, Voncis.

"Report" a herald walked into the tent, "Marshal, Creed shot from inside the Red Flame Fortress. The herald walked up to the commander of the Bretan Army, Voncis, and handed over an arrow with a creed tied to it.

"Well, you go down. Taking the arrow, Voncis untied the creed tied to the arrow, and after reading the creed, Vonsis found Brian, who was sitting across from him, looking up at him.

"What am I doing? Brian, have you figured out what to do next? Vonseth asked with a smile, "There's information from the Red Flame Fortress?" Brian asked with a cautious expression.

"Brian, you guy, you don't pay attention to chess, no wonder you always lose. Vonseth shook his head and stood up, handily tossing the creed in his hand onto the chessboard.

Picking up the creed on the chessboard, Brian looked at it carefully, and it was written that tomorrow King Landry Pars of Gilgia would lead an army of 200,000 to storm out of the fortress and fight Brettan's army to the death.

"So, tomorrow is going to be the winner?" Bryan said, looking up, "Splitting the winner?" Voncis Varouan, the commander of the Bretan Army, slowly walked over to a large table where a map of Gilgia was placed.

"Brian, it's not that easy to tell the winner. Vonsis stared at the map in front of him and whispered, "Didn't we stay on the Red Flame Plains for so long just to wait for the fortress to run out of food and grass? Vonsis, aren't you sure you can capture King Gilgias?" Brian also stood up and walked to the large table where the map was placed.

"As long as Landry Pars dares to come out of the fortress, he won't be able to escape..." Vonseth glanced up at Brian. "That's it, just capture King Gilgias, this war..."

"Brian, will Landry really be caught by us? I heard that the king of Gilgias would like to eat my flesh and blood, and I believe that even if he kills himself, Landry will not want to be captured by me. Vonseth pressed his hands to the edge of the large table, "And even if we capture Landry, the Gilgidian royal family and the lords will not necessarily give in to us. ”

Brian noticed, and there was a hint of worry in Vonse's eyes, Brian knew that Vonse's concern was not about victory or defeat on the battlefield, and for this man known as the "undefeated god of war", there was nothing simpler than winning a war.

"Vonse, are you worried about that old fellow of Brun Sias?" Brian said, frowning at the yellow-haired man's words, "Brian, although there are only two of us here, you should also have respect for His Majesty. Vonseth admonished.

Brun Sias is the name of King Bretan, and Brian actually called King Brettan's name just now.

"Vonse, that old fellow of Bren is jealous of your talent and your prestige in the army, and he is afraid of you Valuan family, and he is afraid that you will threaten his rule..."

"Knock" The commander of the Bretin Army, Voncis Varuan, tapped the table with two fingers, "Brian, don't say any more. Feng Xisi looked at the yellow-haired man in front of him with a grim expression.

Brian's lips moved, and finally he didn't get the words out of his mouth.

The two men stood at the table for a moment, and Vonseis walked over to Brian and patted his old friend on the shoulder.

"Vonse, I know you will be upset, but I still have to advise you again, your talents are far superior to those of His Majesty Brun, and the Varunn family is also very prestigious in the Kingdom of Brettan, since His Majesty Brun is afraid and hates your family, then why not..."

"Brian, the throne of kings is indeed very tempting, many people have paid their hearts and even their lives to sit on this throne, my father taught me how to fight the enemy, how to win on the battlefield, I never thought of becoming a king, Brian, isn't it too boring to be a king? Every day I meet with ministers, lords, and envoys in the council chamber, and review the innumerable number of letters. ”

Vonseth looked at his old friend, "It's not like staying in the army, here I can use my talents to the fullest, I can go to the front line and watch the bloody battles of the soldiers on the battlefield, I can arrange my troops to fight the enemy generals in a strategic duel, if there is anything in this world that can satisfy me, it must be the battlefield, Brian, that golden throne is not for me, I don't want to stay in the palace like those kings to deal with the countless banquets, wine, and women." Vonse's face smiled.

Looking at the tan-haired man in front of him, Brian sighed softly, "But Vonse, if you win this war, His Majesty the King..."

"Brian, I know what you're trying to say, His Majesty Bren doesn't want me to win this war, it's a strange thing, as the king of the kingdom of Brettan, he doesn't want to see his army win on the battlefield. Vonseth clasped his hands and laughed.

"Perhaps, as a courtier of His Majesty Brun, losing this war is the right choice. Vonseth turned to stare at the spread map on the table, "But Brian, as the commander of the Bretan Army, as a member of the Valuan family, it is unacceptable for me to lose to the enemy on the battlefield. Vonse's eyes were like a torch in his eyes.

Brian stood behind the tan-haired man and was silent for a while, "Vonse, if you win the war with the Kingdom of Gilgias, the king may do it to you..."

"Wait until we win the war and then speculate on His Majesty's thoughts, Brian, as the commander of the Bretan Army, all I can think about now is victory in the war. Vonseth said firmly, staring at the map in front of him.
