When Upton led the army south, the original vigorous orc riot suddenly subsided, but this made him not have the slightest joy in his heart, and even more scared, feeling that his every move was in the calculation of people, every step was led by an invisible rope step by step, there was a trace of bitterness and helplessness in his heart, if King Calais could listen to his letter and send troops in time, he would not end up in the current predicament.

Seeing a group of men and horses in the distance driving into the battlefield, the old patriarch of the Golden Wolf Clan waved the steel totem in his hand and withdrew to the Confession Swamp with the army, "We don't need to fight hard with these Calais, since we have attracted most of their army in the swamp, I believe that they should also be able to deal with it, now I only hope that they can find the totem as soon as possible and escort the totem to the place where it should go." ”

As he spoke, the old man suddenly sighed, and his eldest son Xiaotian next to him hurriedly asked, "Father, what's wrong with you?" the old man looked at him and couldn't help but say meaningfully, "More than a thousand years ago, our ancestors were ashamed of the trust of the royal family and led the whole clan to take refuge in this big swamp, do you know why this swamp is called the Confessional Swamp?" It is because of the mistakes made by our ancestors, I didn't expect to be able to get this opportunity in my lifetime, so that we can snow the humiliation of our ancestors, so this time, no matter how much it costs, we must send the totem safely to the station of the royal family, which can be regarded as atonement for our golden wolf clan. ”

"It's been so many years since my father, you don't have to mind, this time Copperhead and Steel Claw carry 100,000 golden wolf warriors, including our most elite wolf riders and 3,000 totem warriors, and our side has attracted a large number of Calais troops, I believe they should not go wrong in completing this mission. ”

"That's what I said, but I'm worried about the girl of Xingtong, she didn't listen if she didn't let her go, and she dared to follow secretly without permission, fortunately, there was your fourth uncle by your side to watch, but I'm still worried, this girl makes me used to not being good, although your fourth uncle is old and serious, but it's too honest, I'm afraid he won't be able to control this girl at that time, in case she plays the temper of the eldest lady, but it's going to be a big deal, and the copper head and steel claw are the two things that can't be done, I already know that the two of them are interesting to the little girl of the star pupil, so 、、、、 Hey、、、 I hope nothing happens!"

Xiao Tian couldn't help but nod when he heard his father's words, he knew the temper of his little sister, although the fourth uncle watched them grow up, but after all, he was not the fourth uncle, just an elder in the clan, and found that Xingtong secretly followed the team to set off, so he left a letter and followed, obviously worried about the danger of this girl, but with his honest character, he really couldn't subdue this rude little girl, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.

But he still has to comfort him, "Father, don't worry too much, after all, Sister Xingtong is not too young, so she should have a sense of proportion." "Hmph! If she is measured, do I need to worry so much? If everything goes well this time out, it will be fine, in case she makes trouble and delays a big thing, see if I don't 、、、 I don't 、、、 discount her legs!"

Upton looked at the white and chubby messenger, walked over with staggering steps, and couldn't help but hurriedly greet him, "Your Majesty Upton greets your envoy!" "That's it, Lord Upton, we don't have to be polite as officials in the same court, I still have important things to do here, so let's hurry up and deal with the important things." ”

Hearing this, Upton hurriedly welcomed the envoy into the big tent, and the envoy sat on the upper seat, and then took out a secret order from his bosom, "This is written by His Majesty himself, and I hope that your Excellency will read it carefully." ”

Saying that, he handed it over with both hands, and Upton hurriedly took it respectfully, and then retreated left and right, only then did he open the fire paint very carefully, only to see that the format on it was a letter from home, which couldn't help but warm his heart slightly, it seems that His Majesty has not forgotten his old minister, so he hurriedly looked at it.

This could not help but make his face change drastically, his hands trembled, and in the end, he even burst into tears, which could not help but surprise the messenger, "My lord, what's the matter? Is it because of His Majesty's concern and tears?"

But he didn't think that this sentence would arouse Upton's shout, "Oh my God, open your eyes and bestow wisdom on your noble majesty!" When the envoy heard this, his face immediately sank, and he said sharply, "Lord Upton, please pay attention to your words and deeds, Your Majesty actually said it casually?"

If others are afraid that they will be frightened at this moment, they don't want Upton to suddenly laugh wildly, "This noble envoy, I don't know what you think about this war, why don't you take a look at Your Majesty's letter!" As he spoke, he threw it fiercely, and then raised his head and wept, "Great God of Honor, why did you give me Calais such a mediocre monarch, he behaved like this, this is to open the treasure box that seals the demon, and sooner or later he will taste the bitter fruit!"

"Hmph!" the messenger couldn't help but slap the table angrily, but he didn't expect this blow to be too violent, making his hand ache for a while, he hurriedly withdrew his hand and hid it in his sleeve, raised his other hand and pointed at Upton fiercely and said, "Bold Upton, you dare to slander the Holy Oracle like this, Your Majesty remembers that your loyalty is commendable, so let me inform you, I didn't expect you to be so ignorant, you dare to openly insult the Holy One, you 、、、 you 、、、、 are really too bold and reckless!

Upton didn't pay any attention to his departure, still weeping somewhere, Fred and the other generals hurriedly walked in and asked, "My lord, what happened?" Upton then shook his hand and brought the letter on the table, "You can see for yourself." ”

Everyone came forward to take a look, only to see that the letter said that in order to quell the rebellion of the Great Swamp and not affect the war with the Omar, the King of Calais had entrusted the matter to the Yellow Ape Clan, and when the day of success, he would give the Yellow Ape Clan a province of land, and oversee all matters in the Swamp.

After reading this letter, all the generals were also shocked, "How can this 、、、 be?" Fred was already pale, even he knew that this yellow ape clan was by no means a puppet pulling the strings, once it was released, I was afraid that it would be Calais who would suffer in the end, and this matter would be better without the participation of the orc tribe, and now that this matter is handed over to the yellow ape clan to deal with it with full authority, it is equivalent to setting up a target in the swamp, although all the orc tribes hate Calais, but Calais is their frontal enemy, and that kind of hatred will come to the battlefield to ask for it, but for the traitors like the yellow ape clan, it is an unforgettable hatred, if there was no betrayal from them back then, I am afraid there would not be the miserable end of the orcs today, so this is equivalent to uniting the orcs of the entire swamp, I'm afraid that when the time comes, it will not be as simple as a rebellion in one place.

In this letter, there is another meaning, which shows that the king of Calais has completely lost patience with Upton, and does not want to see his recitals every day or two, so it is clearly written below that he only needs to quell the rebellion in the south.

These generals were surprised and delighted by this sentence, and they were surprised that the king would make such an irrational decision, although they also looked down on Upton as a civil official in their hearts, but they still respected his loyalty and diligence very much, and they were happy that they could not obey the command of this nagging lord, and their ears could be purer.

Fred looked at the complicated expressions on the faces of the generals, and didn't know what it was like, and then looked at Upton's dull gaze at the moment, he couldn't help but feel like frying oil, and hurriedly comforted him, "My lord, don't care too much, your loyalty to the empire can be seen in the sky, I think His Majesty the King is just being blinded by the people around him for a while, sooner or later he will understand all this." ”

Upton sat on the ground and muttered, "It's late, it's too late, the demon is not so easy to seal back when it is released, on the surface, the yellow ape clan obeys my Calais, and looks deferential with low eyebrows, but they have a rebellious heart in their bones, and in the end, we Calais have to bear this bitter fruit." ”

Suddenly, his eyes shone again, and he got up and dragged his weak body to the back of the table and sat down, spread out a piece of paper casually, picked up the pen and wrote quickly, "No, I still have to write to His Majesty, I must persuade him to cancel his previous life!" Fred wanted to stop it, but he didn't know how to dissuade him, and the generals in the tent also looked at each other, not knowing what to do, just when Upton was struggling to write, his face suddenly turned red, and then he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body fell down softly.

Upton, a loyal courtier, finally fell ill, but fortunately, the rebellion in the south had subsided on the surface, and the army was stationed here, and although these generals were all brave, they were able to live in the sunshine without war, and it seemed very comfortable, but Fred was more and more worried, because his esteemed Lord Upton's spirit was getting worse and worse day by day, although he persuaded from time to time, but all the persuasion seemed too pale, and I am afraid that if this continued, Upton's life would come to an end.

Although Fred was extremely reluctant to say this, he finally couldn't help but say it, "My lord, don't torture yourself like this anymore, even if you really die in this swamp, there is still no way to persuade Your Majesty to take back your life, it is better for you to keep this useful body and come up with some remedy." ”

This sentence seemed to be upgraded with Upton, making his already dead eyes glow with a hint of life, and slowly turned his head to look at Fred, who was very uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to avoid it, so he could only stand respectfully there.

After a long time, Upton finally spoke, "You're right, it's not too late to figure out a way!" As he spoke, he struggled to sit up, but his body was too weak, and he couldn't help but raise his hand tremblingly, "Help me up, I'm going to write a letter to them, one for each of them!"
