Chapter 59: Thor's Whip
"Have you read His Majesty's orders?" Nicole sighed.
Just last night, Gordon, the commander of the Imperial Palace's Guards, arrived overnight and announced the latest order of His Majesty the Emperor -- "Duke Seth of Tulip, Rudolph, is the commander of the Central Cavalry Corps, and serves as the special envoy of the Northwest Military Affairs, and has the right to arbitrarily lead 20,000 Central Cavalry Corps to reinforce the Northwest!"
Luo Di sighed: "I know, but I was suddenly promoted to this high position, isn't the emperor afraid of someone objecting?"
Nicole smiled coldly: "Why is there no objection?" Gordon told me that last night in the palace hall, there was almost a lot of noise. The Minister of War is the one who has the most fierce opposition, and he wants his nephew Miro to bring reinforcements from the Northern Legion! Who doesn't know that the Northern Legion is the most elite army in the Empire, and he wants to take this opportunity to make their family make a contribution. It's just that our tulip family also has its own influence in the army, so naturally there are people who support us!"
Roddy was silent, although he hadn't been able to witness the brawl in the palace last night, but he could imagine it. Although he has now obtained the inheritance title, after all, he is still a young man without any qualifications, and it is inevitable that some people will be unhappy to get such a high official position so rashly.
But after all, the halo on his head is too dazzling now.
Flame Tulip - Since the family established the empire with the founding emperor, each heir has been an invincible commander, an invincible general who has never been defeated. This is already a myth! With such an aura, for hundreds of years, whenever the empire is at war, it is a natural thing for the Tulip family to lead troops to fight!
This time was no exception - not to mention that His Majesty the Emperor would definitely support him, because he was still bent on killing himself with the sword of the Great Moon Kingdom......
"What are you thinking?" Nicole asked softly, seeing that Roddy was silent.
"Nothing. Roddy looked at Nicole's delicate face, smiled lightly, slowly walked to the window, pushed open the window, he looked at the morning glow in the sky, and suddenly looked back at Nicole: "Look, the morning glow in the sky is bright red, and many people must have shed a lot of blood last night." ”
"What?" Nicole didn't understand for a moment.
Roddy sighed: "Nicole, although I am not from your tulip family, but I am a citizen of the empire! I am still a samurai! As a warrior, my faith is to be able to use my own strength to protect my loved ones and our homeland!" Roddy paused, looked back at Nicole, his eyes stared at Nicole, and said slowly: "You are the person I love! And the empire is my homeland!"
Nicole's face was crimson, but she still had the courage not to avoid Roddy's gaze, and said softly, "So you're ready to go to the Northwest to guard our home?"
Luo Di didn't answer her, and said in a deep voice: "I heard about the situation in the northwest, everywhere the army of the Great Moon Kingdom goes, whether it is a civilian village, town, or military camp, there is not a single grass! Every time they fight, they never leave prisoners, and the only fate of defeat is death, regardless of men, women, and children! I can't be indifferent! Nicole! I can't imagine if it were my relatives, if it was you...... How will I survive when something so tragic happens! So, I must not let that happen!"
Nicole looked at Roddy intently, and at this moment Roddy was no longer the big boy of Muna in her eyes! He was full of the momentum of a man! The angular face and resolute eyes all showed incomparable conviction. In fact, since these days, she has fully felt the transformation of this big boy, and it seems that every day she can feel that he is growing, becoming mature, and becoming stronger......
"Roddy......" Nicole's voice was delicate and beautiful: "You go, whatever you want to do, you go!"
Roddy sighed and said, "Nicole, I recently learned a sentence. ”
"What?"
"Destroy the enemy!" Luo Di's voice was not loud, but his tone was extremely firm: "Only by destroying the enemy to the greatest extent can we save ourselves to the greatest extent!"
"So I'm going to the Northwest!" he said, "I hope to change something! I believe I can do it!"
At this time, out of time, a cynicism came from his head: "I don't know how thick the sky is......! Alas......"
Roddy's face remained unchanged, but he smiled secretly in his heart: "Andy, don't think you can stay out of the matter, remember that you promised to help me? In order not to give you a chance to be lazy, I will take your skeleton on the road together, if I am finished in the northwest, you can't run!!"
"Damn!" Andy's voice seemed to be excited, "Who did you learn this from! When did you become so ...... So ......"
Roddy sneered, "With you, dear Andy, you are my teacher!"
Ignoring the thunderous skeleton, Roddy stepped forward and gently hugged Nicole. He didn't dare to push too hard, because when the warm nephrite was held in his arms, the sense of reality made him feel scared! He was afraid that all this was just an illusory dream, for fear that if he used his strength, he would break the illusion.
In the afternoon, Roddy had already led Gordon to the barracks of the Central Cavalry Corps. But when Roddy had just ridden to the barracks with Gordon, he almost didn't believe his eyes!
This is the most elite "Thor's Whip" in the empire???The invincible iron army that once dominated the world??
The sentries in the barracks stood listlessly at the door, and there was not a single soldier practicing on the school ground! What made Luo Di's eyes even more stark was that there were strings of clothes hanging around the school field!! two of which were women's underwear!! In the barracks of the most elite army of the dignified empire, how could there be women inside!
"What the is going on?" Roddy scolded! He only felt that his heart was full of heartache, frustration, anger and other complicated emotions. For a while, he was not worried that he would bring such an army to the battlefield. What's more, he had seen all kinds of great feats about the "Thor's Whip" in history since he was in the Imperial Academy, and this Imperial Iron Legion occupied a sacred place in Roddy's heart!
In the distance, several officers had already stumbled and crawled towards here, and the one headed by him was still wearing his military uniform while running!!
"Lord Duke, I'm Sander, the commander of the Central Cavalry Regiment!" the guy said as he ran up to Roddy, panting.
Roddy looked at the Commander, and saw that he had a scruffy beard, his face was flushed, and he smelled a strong smell of wine a few steps away.
Luo Di held back the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "I am Setrudolph, the Duke of Tulip of the Empire, on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, and I am currently the commander of the Central Cavalry Regiment. Please lead me to the Legion Commander!"
The Sander Commander's face was a little embarrassed, and he said, "Please go to the big tent and wait, I'll report it immediately!"
Without saying a word, Luo Di handed over the order personally signed by His Majesty the Emperor to the commander, and then went to the big tent with a few officers.
"Gordon Commander!" Rodi couldn't help but be angry, "Is this the Empire's most elite cavalry legion?"
Gordon let out a long sigh and said with a wry smile: "Young Seth...... Oh, Lord Duke, you see this, too...... A lot of things that I can't say. ”
Roddy smiled: "Commander Gordon, you are my father's subordinate back then, you don't need to be polite to me, when no one is around, just call me Seth." Naturally, this was taught to him by Nicole, who knew the identity of the Gordon Commander and had told Roddy to get closer to him.
Gordon also smiled and said, "Yes, Master Seth. Come to remember, when you were young, I hugged you. ”
Roddy's face was silent, but he said in his heart: "Yes? I don't know about this." It's only been two months since I became this young master. ”
"Young Master Seth, don't you know, the Central Cavalry Regiment is said to be the most elite army in the empire to the outside world, but in my opinion, it is better than them to pull a border guard back!"
"Why? Why is this happening? They are the famous 'Thor's Whip'!"
"Why!" a sneer appeared on Gordon's face, "Just because it's not two hundred years ago!, and the commander of the Central Cavalry Corps is not from the Tulip family!";
