After breakfast in the morning, Princia left her lover and walked towards the centaur camp with Egil's letter, promises, various gifts filled with two wagons, and a fine self-portrait in oil. (Baidu Search.The fastest and most stable update, Novel Network):.

"Will she succeed?" Artoria asked silently behind Egil.

"Hmm...... Of course. Egil chuckled. But he looked confident. He turned around and wanted to express his intimacy with Artoria, but he saw that Her Majesty the Queen frowned lightly and was not very happy. Knowing that it was probably between him and Princia that made her know. It's just that it's not clear from what exactly Artoria knows about it, and I don't know how much it knows.

"You seem to be very close to that centaur girl. Artoria said as she opened Egil's outstretched arm.

"Almost. Egil shrugged: "After all, I am such a young and attractive man. Thus attracting the attention of the opposite sex. There shouldn't be anything wrong with that. ”

"That's what I said...... "Altoria is very entangled. Yesterday she trained the soldiers in the barracks, and then practiced swords alone until late at night. As I am excited, I do not want to sleep. I found some wine to drink alone. In the early morning, they staggered to their room (i.e., Egil's), intending to take a good bath in the bath there—and then they saw Egil take the hand of the real centaur lord, and the two of them came out of the room in a very affectionate manner, while Sonia followed them, looking unhappy.

This made Artoria feel that something was wrong. Although, in order to achieve the strategic goals of the Norman Empire. It was right to woo this centaur lord. And it's important. But that doesn't mean that Artoria can accept such a thing as Egil's initiative to dedicate himself - the centaur lord looked at Egil, Artoria is all too familiar. Because that's how she looked at Egil. It is the kind of girl in love looking at her lover, and the newlywed wife looking at her husband's eyes

- Although Egil is still mild-mannered and well-behaved. Looks like a gentleman. But Artoria, who knew Egil very well, knew what kind of beastly heart her husband hid beneath his well-dressed exterior - just after Egil had said a lot of nice things and lured her into trying to have sex with her......

"Although he looks very handsome, he is full of intelligence, ability and great ambition at the same time. But it's a complete pervert -- that's it. That's one of Artoria's things to say about Egil. Sounds interesting. Of course, this did not diminish Artoria's love for Egil.

"So, something bad happened between you and that centaur?" Artoria asked.

"Aha...... Do you think I'm like that, Hani?" Egir asked rhetorically, with a laugh.

Artoria frowned, and thought to herself, "Aren't you such a person?"

Of course, Her Royal Highness wants to save a little face for her husband. So he shook his head in good conscience.

"So something did happen. So Egil admitted.

Artoria thought to herself, I've given you face, what do you want, do you want to cut it?, and looked at Egil to see what he could say, though Artoria had grown a lot in other ways. But in this respect, it is still as naïve as ever - there is no such thing as a liar that cannot be communicated in words, and the correct response should be to punch him down and put 10,000 feet on his head. That's right. And the result of verbal communication with them can only be deceived by clever liars.

"Seriously, it's an adventure for love, justice and courage. And in fact, it doesn't feel very good. Egil's opening made Artoria feel that this guy had a bad brain. ...,

"Well, in fact, centaurs are the strongest soldiers in the world. I want an army of centaurs. It doesn't take much, about five thousand. Egil said, "So, take advantage of the Centaur Tribe's lord a little. Everything is for the Empire, everything is for our ambitions. Hani, don't you want such a powerful Centaur army?"

"I think that's right...... But how exactly did you win her over?" asked Artoria.

"Some women like small gifts, flowers, delicacies and diamonds and clothes. "And then there's a romantic evening in the company of the most handsome men in the whole of Norman," said Egil. It was a little candlelit dinner. Look at the moon. I wrote her another love poem. There is nothing else to do with it. Egil said. Makes Artoria feel that he is at best a half-legged cheating. Something really substantial was not made.

"Oh......" Artoria nodded incredulously, "That's all right - that is, the war with the centaurs is over?"

"Well, that's true. Egil nodded.

"Then next. It's time for the next plan?" Artoria asked.

"Definitely. Egil then nodded: "What about the so-called holy land...... Although I do not want to defeat Saladin completely, recover the Holy Land, or even occupy the whole of the Near East and Egypt. But there are some necessary benefits that I really want. ”

"The island of Cyprus?"

"That's right, Hani, you're really a roundworm in my stomach......"

"Hate ......"

In this way, Egil appeased his wife and the number one general of the Norman Empire. At the same time, envoys were sent to Joan of Arc in Krakow, to the naval commander of the Baltic Fleet, to Apraksin, and to the Eastern Roman Empire, as well as letters.

The content given to Joan of Arc was to reorganize her army, enter the territory of the Zaporozhye Khanate, ask the Norman Empire to rent a port there, that is, Kherson, collect ships, and speed up the construction of the Black Sea Fleet, which has not yet been reorganized. Before Egil turns around and returns to the Norman Empire, gather ships capable of transporting at least 50,000 soldiers.

And the order given to the commander-in-chief of the Baltic detachment, Admiral, Viscount Apraksin was to concentrate all the transport ships in the Baltic Sea and enter the territory of the Black Sea through the waterways of the Vistula and Dnieper. Gear up. At the same time, ten large cannon warships built by the Scandinavian shipyard were brought with them - Egil had already made a decision, and this expedition was the first appearance of artillery warships. It is necessary to show the enemies, the pagan pirates, what an epoch-making superweapon is.

The Baltic Fleet, on the other hand, has a large number of transport ships under its command because most of its functions are used for transportation. Enough to carry more than 50,000 soldiers. This, coupled with the ships that Joan of Arc was concentrating. The Norman Empire was able to transport 100,000 troops south to Jerusalem at a time. Conquer the Holy Land.

The letter to the Eastern Roman Empire was to follow the agreement and open the Dardanelles Strait when the Norman fleet headed south, allowing the Norman fleet to pass through. At the same time, Egil also "kindly" inquired about the Eastern Roman Emperor Basil II, inviting him to join the Crusades.

"The empire of the uncle (does anyone remember this unfortunate title) is inherited from ancient Rome and is the lord of the Mediterranean. It should control the Near East and North Africa. The ambition of the pagan wolf of Islam, lacking in gluttony, has gained the land of the Near East and North Africa without being satisfied, and attacks Asia Minor day and night. Now there are more Moors of Córdoba, intent on encroaching on Iberia. It is indeed the great enemy of your country. I have heard that wise men are far-sighted and should take precautions. Prependious. Now the nations of Europe are working together to fight against Arab heresy. This is officially a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If the uncle is not sure, he will definitely regret it.

- Norman Egir Honors"

Egil believed that a man like the Eastern Roman Emperor Basil II, who was not willing to be lonely, would not have missed this opportunity - either Turkey or Egypt. In short, the other side will definitely take this opportunity to send troops. Share a portion of the pressure of the Norman Empire. Of course, Egil also has to beware of the other side gaining too much in this war. It is even more necessary to guard against the other side swallowing Egil's long-coveted Cyprus first.

"If the other party really doesn't know each other, he will kill Ya Ting. Egil was secretly ruthless as he wrote.

In addition to these three emissaries, there was another, the Norman Offshore Fleet, Marshal Carter's army. Because the road is long and crosses mountains and seas. Therefore, the book can only be passed on by flying pigeons. Egil also mobilized him. He was to be asked to do the best possible to occupy the island of Cyprus in the name of the Crusaders, without affecting the defence of the island of Malta. If the nobles of the island of Cyprus knew each other, forget it. If they didn't know each other, they were hanged for sabotaging the Eastern Crusade. No need to save face.

That's it. In Egil's eyes, war with centaurs is no longer the same thing. His focus now is on this, the Fourth Crusade. However, that's not what the centaurs think. At the same time that Egil was writing letters to his subordinates and the Eastern Roman Empire, he was in the camp of the centaurs. Centaur Ke also looked at his daughter who knelt in front of him with a stubborn face. Thoughts were in turmoil like never before......
