"The key to doing business is to make money. ”

-- The wealthy Earl Gilson

The retreating party of Eternal Night City trampled the snowy Northridge road once more, and the restless crowd moved slowly. Rodok looked worriedly at the camp left yesterday, such obvious traces If the other party catches up with the speed of his own and others, it is simply easier than chasing an elk with a broken leg while hunting.

Pikes took the cup and poured water into his mouth, then sprayed it into the hooded car. Rhodok rode to the huge carriage and poked his head in, looked at Pikes amusedly, and asked, "What would Alan think if he knew you spit on the whole of Northridge several times a day?"

"I just want it to be sturdy and frozen, sir. Pikes said with an awkward smile. Before leaving, he asked the soldiers to move the sand table outside, and kept spraying water on it so that the whole sand table was soaked in water and frozen, which was easier to transport. Along the way, because he was worried that the sand table would be bumped and damaged, he kept doing it himself, this sand table was made from scratch a few years ago, and the previous one was no longer usable.

"Relax. Rodok smiled and said, "I'm kidding you." How is Your Majesty? So saying, he looked at another huge carriage beside the sandbox, in which the king was lying.

"He had a high fever, and when he woke up a few times and drank some water, he immediately fell asleep again, and the maid fed him some soup every day. Pikes looked at the king's carriage gloomily, "The old bachelor said that it was caused by the burst of the wound last time, and that he still needed to recuperate, and that it was not good for His Majesty to travel in such a hurry, but there was no way. ”

Rodok nodded, listening to the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, looking up to see Domt and several lords coming over, looking at the unhappy expressions of Domt and several lords, Rodok sighed slightly in his heart.

"Huh~" Several people who stopped the war looked at Rodok and didn't speak, Rodok shook his eyebrows, stretched out his hands and asked, "What's wrong?"

Domt rolled his eyes and looked back at the several lords, gently kicked the horse's belly and took a few steps forward, and came to Rhodok's side with an unkind look and whispered, "They said they were going to go back and gather people to come again." ”

"Oh. Rodok pretended to be suddenly enlightened, nodded and looked at a few people and said, "That's good, go ahead." ”

This time it was the turn of several lords who were at a loss, looking at each other a little inexplicable, they were ready to be scolded or even threatened, but they didn't expect Rhodok to let them go back without saying a word. Domt was also a little confused, looking at Rodok and several lords who were leaving.

"Your Excellency. One of the lords spoke, his head looking a little funny, his angular hairstyle and beard making his face look like an octagonal jewel......

"Call me Rhodok, Anderson. Rhodok stretched out his hand and waved it and said, "Cooper, James, Evan." We are friends and I support you. As he spoke, Rhodok raised an eyebrow and nodded at a few people.

A few people were a little embarrassed and looked at each other, and Anderson continued: "We're just a little worried about home, Rhodok. ”

"Go back and make arrangements, we will definitely lead someone over immediately." Another lord named Cooper said, bald and bearded, and if his nose was a little bigger, he would look a bit like a Kakaman.

"Okay, go ahead. Rodok put one hand on the saddle with a relaxed face, and stretched out the other.

Several people looked at Rodok, and then looked at each other and still felt that their hearts were beating, but this thing would not make Rodok pretend, if he was really dissatisfied, he would definitely say it, and several people were indeed quite familiar with Roddock.

"Do we need to tell Your Majesty?" Anderson asked cautiously, still a little uneasy, after all, Rhodok's reaction was a little strange. In their opinion, Rhodok, who had been promoted to wartime marshal, should be furious because of the departure of himself and others.

"No, no, no. Rodok waved his hand and said in a loud voice, sighed and looked at a few people: "The king is still unconscious, and what I said is true, you can go, it's okay." Bring me more soldiers back. ”

Seeing that Rodok did not look like a fake, several people looked at each other, promised Rodok to bring more soldiers, and then rode away.

"Brother-in-law, you're not mistaken, did you really let them go like this?" asked Domt, who had been holding back for a long time, after the lords had walked away. Rodok had already opened his mouth to let the two of them leave, and Domt felt that it would be a bit too offending if he asked himself.

"Or else?" Rodok looked at Domt: "People want to go home and settle their wives and children, what can I say?"

"They took with them about a hundred people and bought a lot of civilian horses, so not only did our combat strength decline a lot, but the speed of our actions also slowed down. Domt said with some excitement.

"Then pray that they bring more soldiers back. Rodok sighed and said, then raised his chin at Domt, who was walking slowly, and motioned for Domt to take a look, and continued: "Look, if the other party really chases us away, you can also send someone to let your people come to meet us as soon as possible, Grave and they miss, I'm afraid we will have to run away." ”

Domt looked at the squirming flow of people, and helplessly found that it was indeed the same as what Rodok said, if the other party really chased after him, I am afraid that he and others would indeed not be able to protect so many people.

"Don't worry too much. Rodok hammered Domt's shoulder: "As long as Grave succeeds in sneaking up on the other party once, slow down the pace of the Kakamans a little, and when they send troops to pursue, their cavalry will definitely be killed by Griver on the road, and the Kakaman cavalry is already small, and the combat effectiveness is not very good." If they had sent infantry, Grave would have had an easier time holding them down. ”

Looking at Domtrodok, who slowly figured out this truth, he smiled, Domt had never experienced such a big formation, and in the end, he still ignored a lot of things. Leaving Eternal Night City so far, Rhodok was actually basically relieved, and he didn't look at the combat power of the Kakamans.

"It's you, kid. Rodock hammered Domut's shoulder again and said with a smile, "What did you do last night, you have been busy in Eternal Night City and you don't have time to relax now, right?"

Domt thought about it for a while, and the girl who was still feeling refreshed last night, smiled and said, "I have to say that these girls are really dedicated, and they don't forget to do business when they retreat." ”

"It's not that you guys have big and warm tents, and people still have money to sleep in them for a night, and when I was young, I would fool around with Eren every time I went to Eternal Night City, but now I can't, I'm old, I have too many things to worry about, and I don't have the energy. Rhodok recalls the absurd years when he and the king were teenagers.

Domt couldn't help but laugh, and Rodok looked at Domt strangely and asked, "What's wrong?"

Domt looked at Rodo with a smile, and casually said to a woman with a big waist in the crowd: "Maybe this is the girl you two slept with back then, and then found a baker or something." ”

After saying that, Domt laughed and slapped his horse and ran, Rodok's beard was cocked, and Pikes, who overheard it on the side, wanted to hold back, but unfortunately he didn't. Rodok glared at Pikes, but Pikes didn't look at Rodok at all, and looked at the fat woman that Dommut was referring to, and Rodok himself laughed.
