"You...... It's a general?"

Raven, the commander of the Guards standing beside Jarro, looked ridiculous. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes, Miss Raven. ”

Smiling, Cassius nodded.

"Aren't you a magician?"

Besides, generals don't have to go into battle to fight, I just need to protect myself from being assassinated, and I don't have to use a knife to do it. ”

Cassius smiled at Raven.

In the tone, it is full of confidence.

Sun Chenghuan, who was standing on the other side, nodded silently.

When he was in Onica before, he felt that something was wrong, Cassiu didn't look like a good negotiator.

Not even as good as the two young men, Lial and Jessica.

But if he were a general, it would be completely understandable.

Indeed, it is a bit difficult to get a person who is good at commanding the army on the battlefield to bargain with people at the negotiating table, although there is a saying that the negotiating table is the battlefield......

Just like Sun Chenghuan himself, he never felt that he was an opponent of Li Yaer or Jessica when he was negotiating.

But really on the battlefield......

"Let's talk about what we're going to do next. Jarro quickly regained his composure and continued to bring out the Queen's shelf.

"You've been on the boat for five days in a row, and it must have been hard work, so we'll rest here today, and set off tomorrow morning, first by land to the southeast, to Stormwind, then up along the Zhishui River, to Danmod, and then by land, south to Minehir. ”

Cassius took a map from his bosom, spread it on the table in the tent, and scratched it for Jarrobi.

"Why don't you just go southwest? it's a lot closer, right?" asked Jarro, pointing to the map.

His eyes were full of suspicion.

"What's the truth about this, right?" Sun Chenghuan took over the topic next to him.

Then, he glanced at Raven, who also had a wary look in her eyes.

In addition to Suowan, the half-man, the two of them may have some idea of marching.

"Of course. Cassius nodded earnestly. "But before I get to ...... point"

With that, Cassius beckoned to Captain Wan behind him.

The short, skinny captain took something out of his bosom and handed it into Cassiu's hand.

"I need to confirm if you are a descendant of Nioh. ”

Kaxiu looked respectful as he held the object handed over by the captain in both hands.

It was in the shape of a tiger coming down the mountain, bent into the shape of a half-moon, and it seemed to have a gap.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

"Your last name is Longbottom?"

"Yes. Kasiu looked serious.

"Who are you Keith Longbottom?"

"It's my uncle. A look of respect shot into Cassiu's eyes.

Jarro took a deep breath.

Then a long exhalation came out.

"I understand, and then my safety will be left to you. ”

After that, Jarro also took something out of his arms.

It's almost exactly the same as the one Cathew was holding.

Sun Chenghuan knows that this is the legendary "Tiger Fu".

Something that came from the distant era of the Penglai Kingdom.

It is said to have been used to command the army.

I saw that Jarro gently put the tiger talisman in his hand on top of the tiger talisman held by Kaxiu.

Sun Chenghuan saw it, and Cashew's two hands were shaking.

Superposition.

At least in Sun Chenghuan's opinion, things are exactly the same.

However, this is clearly not enough.

A green light shone out from the two tiger talismans at the same time.

Then, something wonderful happened.

The tiger talisman that Kaxiu was holding in his hand was gone.

Only the tiger talisman in Jarro's hand was still in her hand.

It looked like nothing had happened.

Cassiu, along with the two captains who followed him, knelt down on one knee.

Place one hand on your chest.

"Greetings to His Excellency. ”

It's not loud, but it's solemn.

Sun Chenghuan, who was watching from the side, understood that this greeting seemed to be sincere.

"Now, can you answer my question?" Jarro smiled slightly, nodded, and continued.

"Didn't you ask me when your ancestor's realm would be recovered?" Cassius said with a serious face, "You can go back directly to Minehir and declare your succession there. But in this case, your ancestors' lands will not return. ”

"I remember, Stormwind and Dammmod ......"

"Danmod doesn't matter. It was just a transshipment port for military supplies. Kasiu shook his head, "Although there are people in the Council of Elders who take it very seriously, they don't dare to touch the defenders of Danmod, the guards there have been placed there since your father was still in power, and as soon as your tiger talisman arrives, he will surely follow your orders." Your current problem is only in Stormwind. ”

"Stormwind...... Is it still the Duke of Vortagen?" Jarro's eyes suddenly became a little complicated.

"Yes. Cassius just replied.

And then he stopped talking.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

This time the silence lasted for a long time.

"I see. Jarro broke the silence.

"Your Excellency, rest first, and we will be on our way tomorrow morning. Cassius knew it was time for him to leave.

"Okay. Jarro nodded slightly.

Cassius withdrew from the tent, leaving only Sun Chenghuan and his peers who had followed Jarro to Astrana.

"Let's all go and rest first. I'm going to have a lot of energy starting tomorrow. Jarro smiled at Raven.

“...... Then you can rest, too. Raven nodded.

The expression was slightly strange.

Still, it's calm.

After speaking, he glanced at Sun Chenghuan and them beside him.

Several people withdrew from the camp together, except for ......

"Jessica, stay for a moment. ”

"Oh. ”

......

Soon, an afternoon passed, compared to the previous sabre-rattling, the peaceful atmosphere made Sun Chenghuan and his group feel a little awkward.

So, no one can really rest well.

It was evening, and night fell.

It's time for dinner.

By the campfire outside the camp shared with Suowan and the others, Sun Chenghuan was hot with the things that had just been sent by the Astrana army.

It's a little cold rice.

Suowan beside him, his face was very bad.

The two were quiet.

After a while, Raven and Joey also appeared.

The four of them sat by the campfire.

Quiet.

No one spoke, everyone stared blankly at the campfire.

"The rice is hot, let's eat first. Sun Chenghuan said to Suo Wan.

"Hmm. Suo Wan replied and took something from Sun Chenghuan's hand.

"What about yours?" Sun Chenghuan turned to look at Raven and the others.

"We've eaten. It was Joey who answered. "It's just to come out and sit, and it's a little stuffy in the tent. ”

"Hmm. Sun Chenghuan replied and picked up his share.

A few bites, finished eating.

Didn't eat enough.

Sovan, it seems, is the same.

Then, it was quiet again.

Only the crackling of the campfire.

Long.

"Do you regret it?"

Sun Chenghuan understood, here today, only he had to speak, otherwise, such silence could last all night.

"Hmm. ”

It was Joey who answered.

Originally, she was the shortest of the four, but now she was holding her legs like this, shrunk into a ball, and looked even smaller.

Sun Chenghuan glanced at Suo Wan, who was silent, and Ruiwen, who was in a daze with a wooden stick in his hand and carrying the firewood in the fire.

Laughed.

"It's too late to regret it. Sun Chenghuan let out a long sigh.

The smile on his face disappeared.

"Let's go, there's no place for us here. Suowan suddenly said next to him, "It's already obvious on the other side, it's going to drive us away." ”

"Surely they are going to drive us away!" Sun Chenghuan smiled, "Although we are nominally classmates of Jarro, everyone knows that we were sent by Merce to spy on and control her, and she knows it herself. Do you think you can be nice to a group of people who come to spy on you, and you can give us a bite to eat, because we saved her twice. ”

"I really didn't expect that her family would still have so many people here in Astrana......" Sovan shook his head, "If I had known, I don't think the Council of Elders would have made such a stupid decision." Let's do a bunch of people? What's the use! It's just to send us to death. It's better to learn from Grant......"

"Is Grant back to Mills?" asked Raven, who had been silent.

"Dead on the road. Sovan shook his head, "Ambushed, it is said that the rebels did it." ”

“...... Isn't he the Earl's first in line to the throne?"

"So what? Those who do not obey the orders of the Council of Presbyterians cannot be kept. It's not the first time they've done this kind of thing......" Sowan said this, unable to continue.

Now return to Merce, it's also the "disobedient" type......, right?

"Let's take one step at a time. Sun Chenghuan shook his head a little helplessly, which can be regarded as persuasion. "We don't have anywhere else to go now. ”

"Do you think Jarro has seen through this and dared to treat us like this?" Joey interjected a little angrily.

"Definitely!" Raven nodded, "Don't you see? only Jessica isn't here......"

"Jessica is her true friend!" Sun Chenghuan smiled and sighed, "Maybe this proposal to bring her classmates with her is Jessica's idea for her, right? ”

"And then we're a bunch of fronts?" Raven said, her face abrupt.

"It doesn't matter! at least it makes sure we're safe. Sun Chenghuan nodded, "If Jarro kills us, then Jessica will look very strange." At that time, her sister ...... Well. ”

"Hostage...... Suowan sighed, "I thought it was a stupid thing for the Elders to use hostages to control us, but now I think about it...... God knows what kind of mask people are hiding under! Like Jessica, everyone would be surprised when the mask was removed. ”

“...... What kind of mask are you wearing, aren't you?" Joey snorted, spitting at Sovan.

Sovan was silent.

"Moreover, I also think," Sun Chenghuan interrupted what Joey wanted to say, this girl is in a bad mood now, and her speech is prickly. Originally, a few people here didn't know how long they would depend on each other for the next time, and the relationship was stiffened, how would they live in the future!" Things are not so smooth. ”

"Why?" Raven's brow jumped.

"Escort, have you ever heard of an army of 20,000 men escorting you?" Sun Chenghuan asked Ruiwen with a smile, "When you first entered the barracks, did you notice the way they set up camp?"

"Camping? It's just a simple glaive array...... The best way to set up camp against stealing camps. Raven thought seriously and replied, "After all, this is the place where the border with Merce is fighting, isn't this the most reasonable?"

"Is the direction of the glaive's blade facing south or north?" asked Sun Chenghuan with a smile.

Be quiet.

"South. Raven's face turned strange.

"You two, can you say something we can understand!" Joey interjected with an irritated look on his face. "What does it mean that the blade is facing north and south?"

"The glaive is in the shape of a scimitar, and on the round side is the blade, facing the direction that is the object of defense. In general, the troops of Astrana were stationed in such battalions, which must have been oriented north. Because Merce is on the north side. Raven explained to her best friend.

"Isn't it obvious that they have enemies within themselves? It's just that I didn't expect that when I was in Onica, Cassiu didn't show any enthusiasm for Jarro, so why could I get her complete trust. Sovan interjected.

"The mechanics of the Tiger Talisman, probably. Sun Chenghuan shook his head, "This is not something we can know, at least not now." ”

"What are we going to do next?" Joey was still confused.

"It's very simple! 20,000 people should be the largest number of troops that this Kasho general can mobilize, as for whether it is enough...... We don't know that right now. Sun Chenghuan could only explain to Joey, the only one of the four people in the room who did not understand military theory at all, "If you look at it from this point of view, I think there is another reason why they decided to take a detour instead of going directly to Minahir. ”

"Go directly to Minethir, there will be ambushes on the way. Joey was stunned.

Ruiwen also nodded: "I didn't think in that direction before, so it makes sense." ”

"So, we're actually going to Stormwind to ask for help?" asked Joey.

"Yes and no. Sun Chenghuan shook his head, "It's not just as simple as asking for help, it's hard to say whether the other party is willing to help or not, so this line of work is gambling." ”

"Bet?"

"Yes, the Duke of Stormwind is willing to let their king return!"

"What if the Duke doesn't want to?"

"Then......" Sun Chenghuan smiled, "The division of the three kings will completely become a piece of history!"
