The halberdier and several cavalrymen set out first, and they were going to carry out the task assigned by the lord.

As far as the lord is concerned, those who make it into the list of teams in his system are basically reliable.

It's a pity that Vendatil and Wentilve, and even the other two girl rangers, didn't join their team......

So, the lord came to Vendatil and Wentilf.

"Vendatier, your unique swordsmanship relies on ear power to determine the location of the enemy, right?"

The lord covered his eyes with his hands and gestured to Vendatil.

"Yes, Lord Leon, but anthropology won't......"

Vendatier nodded: "Humans can't hear those subtle sounds, it's innate and can't be exercised. But we can hear where the enemy is, and even how they are going to strike, just as we see with our eyes - ears are not ornaments to us! ”

The implication is that the human ear can only be regarded as an ornament, right?

The elves have long, pointed ears that are indeed visible from their appearance alone, and they must have a much wider vocal range than humans, at least more subtle sounds. It's just that they also encounter more noisy distractions.

"Of course I can't learn...... Wendy, you're a student of Vendatier, you should know, right? ”

Lord Wentliff turned to ask Wenttilph.

"Absolutely! I'm a good ranger! Lord Leon, do you want to assign me any combat mission? ”

Wenttilve's eyes lit up at once, and she seemed to be looking forward to an adventure—it seemed that she had indeed seen quite a few knights.

"yes, I'm thinking about who to do the most important tasks...... Wendy, what else would you do besides Vendatier's swordsmanship? ”

The lord seemed to be thinking about something.

"My lord, I can have a lot of them......"

Wentilv was now more energetic, and she was aroused with great curiosity: "What is the most important task?" Can you tell me about it? ”

……

There was indeed a large army gathered near the Qicha Fortress.

Duke Brenus arrived with the Lion Knights to take over the defense, while Lehman was leading his troops around the Lion Realm - Lehman's mission was now to guard the flanks and try to find the "force that had lurked into the Lion after killing the bridgehead garrison".

The reason for this situation is that the garrison of the Sava Fort of the Bacchus Empire has also seen the beacon fire, and they have found that the large army of the Lion Kingdom is on the border of the Chen army - in this case, General Titus, who is in charge of the defense of the Savoie Fort, naturally has to gather a large army to take precautions.

Then General Titus discovered that the hills south of the Sava River, which had been occupied by the Lion Kingdom, did not have any troops......

This was due to Lehman's judgment that "the enemy had probably crossed the bridge and infiltrated the territory of the Lion", so Duke Brennus thought that it was not necessary to divide his forces to defend the uninhabited territory to the south, so as not to lose the enemy's back.

So he abandoned the fortifications Lehman had built on the south bank of the Sava River, gathered his troops and set up defenses around the Seven Forks Fortress, intending to be safe enough to prevent the "lurking enemy" from attacking the Lion City perimeter......

If an enemy does infiltrate the hinterland, this is actually reasonable, at least to ensure that the capital area is not attacked by surprise.

Moreover, the main force of Duke Brenus's current army is the Lion Knights with outstanding field combat ability in the plains, and in the fortification or mountain environment, these Lion Knights who do not have long-range abilities cannot be used, so it is more appropriate to arrange the defense area to the plains around the Seven Forks Fortress.

But in this way, General Titus of the Bacchus Empire naturally unceremoniously took over the abandoned fortifications and advanced the front to the south bank of the Sava River.

So the armies of the two countries began to confront each other across the bridge......

Because of this, the Lion Kingdom also decided that the attack on the defenders on the bridge was mostly done by the Bacchus Empire - such a provocation must be reciprocated, so the Duke of Brenus launched a tentative attack directly on General Titus's troops.

The battle between the Lion Kingdom and the Bacchus Empire started again because of this accident and misunderstanding......

But fortunately, both countries have a lot of trouble at home, and neither side is very willing to start a large-scale all-out war.

There are only constant skirmishes between the two sides over the ownership of the bridge.

"Lord Duke, we have rescued an infantry captain across the river, a subordinate of Sir Lehman, who has important military information to report to you!"

Inside the Seven Forks Fortress, a lion knight prayed to Brenus.

"Bring it in!"

A halberdier was brought to Brenus.

"Gong ...... Lord Duke...... I am the captain of the infantry loyal to Sir Lehman......"

The halberd soldier looked quite nervous, probably not seeing a big man like the duke.

"To the point, I'm not interested in your job!"

Brennus's temper seemed rather short-tempered.

"Big ...... My lord, my defense zone was attacked by a group of mercenaries, and they killed all my team members......"

The halberd stammered about the situation.

"Mercenaries?"

Brenus frowned, "What do those mercenaries look like?" ”

"They look like slave hunters. I said that this area was a military-controlled area, and told them to lay down their arms, and then they suddenly did it! There are a lot of them, and they are all very good, so we are not opponents...... Before I was knocked into the river, I heard them say what His Royal Highness was told! ”

The halberd gritted his teeth and said - except for the last sentence, what he said was basically all the truth, so he was indeed true in his heart.

"Your Royal Highness? …… Where did those mercenaries go? ”

Brennus's face changed.

"They went south, and I heard them say that they had to do a full show, and I heard them say that Baron Elderfried was waiting for them! My lord, I don't understand...... What is the mission of His Royal Highness the Prince? I'm not sure if I heard it wrong......"

Brennus's cheeks twitched a few times, and he squeezed out a dangerous smile: "That's the enemy's conspiracy...... You don't have to understand. ”

Then he said to the lion knight next to him, "Give this captain a hundred dinars for his loyalty." ”

The halberdiers were sent away - it was because they 'didn't understand' that they could live, and there was a bounty to be given......

In the eyes of Duke Brenus, what the halberdier said was very credible, he was only a small character, and he would not lie about such a thing.

Because killing a team of bridge guards looked like they were deliberately provoking a war - if the Bacchus Empire hadn't let the troops into the Lion Realm, then they wouldn't have to.

It was originally a coincidence without logic, but now Brenus has found a logic - this is probably a conflict created by Aranrik who wants to seize military power?

Indeed, it is only logical to think so......

For the vast majority of people, there is always a logic to everything.

But reality is often less logical, and history is often more absurd than legend......

But people will always consciously make up a situation that they think is logical according to some so-called clues-even if the truth of the matter is only because the leader of the slave hunting group who does not want to waste time has been knocked out......

Soon after, Brenus withdrew his forces to the Seven Forks Fortress and sent an emissary to General Titus across the river.

Afterwards, Brenus returned to the Lion City with a group of Lion Knights.

General Titus's troops also withdrew to the Sava River Fort, but the fortifications south of the Sava River that originally belonged to the Lion Kingdom had all been replaced by Titus's Phoenix Banner.

The initiative that Count Auden and Leon had won here was returned to the Bacchus Empire by Brenus.

Leon hadn't forgotten that Prince Aranrik was planning to buy the murder of him, so he used the halberdier to detain Aranrik with a.

At the very least, this would have made everyone suspicious and suspicious of Aranrik, and they wouldn't have been able to verify it anyway......

Of course, this is primarily for a temporary truce between the two countries, and in fact peacekeeping is good for all.

Ramon had said before that Baron Alderfred was looking for the Noldor noble maiden - which meant that Alderfred must have known a lot about it, so the lord told the baron about it.

To those who knew that the king was 'sick', the situation looked like Aranrik was taking advantage of his father's illness to start a war, Ulrique was unable to lead the army, and the prince was likely to seek military power through this, and the executor appeared to be Aldefried's men.

Ald Fried, is the Knight Captain of the Lion Order.

And Brenus and Lehman are both administrators of the Lion Knights, a captain, a well-known knightly deputy commander, and they also know that the king is sick.

But whether it is Brenus or Lehman, if the prince actually 'did not tell them' and let Aldfried do it, it naturally means to them - the prince does not trust them, but wants to use them as cannon fodder.

In this way, everyone will think about the issue of control of the Lion Knights...... It will also be believed that Prince Aranrik intends to stir up disputes......

In fact, no matter who is in charge of military affairs, as long as it is not Aranrik himself, then he will never go to war with Bacchus because of the 'prince's mission', and even if there is a fight, he must force peace - because no one wants to be cannon fodder.

Therefore, those who preside over military affairs would rather suffer losses than definitely cease fighting.

This is what the lord thought of when he saw the halberd, in fact, Leon just wanted to return to White Deer Fort safely - only when there was no war here, the lord could get by.

At the same time, all the things that the lord did were to seize the time to develop, and during this period of accumulating strength, he did not want the two countries to continue to fight.

It stands to reason that in the case of a temporary truce between the two countries, Leon can easily return to White Deer Fort.

But who knows, the lord will actually meet a person he didn't expect at all at the bridge.

Bachelor of Ageor University.

And he also brought with him at least three hundred men, all lion knights and lion servants, and acquaintances - these were Lehman's men.

"Lord Leon? Why are you here......"

Yin Geor looked extremely surprised.

"Your Excellency Yin Gor, why are you here?"

The lord was even more surprised, originally thought that when he arrived here, he would meet Lehman at most - this is Lehman's territory, how could it be guarded by Yin Geor?

"I was ordered to make peace with the Bacchus Empire...... Lord Leon, it seems that you should explain why you came from the territory of Bacchus? ”

Yin Geer looks right, and it is estimated that he is really in charge of the peace talks......

His position is indeed suitable for the job.

"I'm a businessman...... And, as you know, I have to raise money for Your Majesty......"

The lord gritted his teeth and laughed.

Yin Geer stood up slowly: "Since this is the case, then it is better to go and see Your Majesty first, anyway, the Lion City is not far away...... Lord Leon? ”

After speaking, he waved his hand directly, and let the lion knights step forward to surround Leon's men.

"What do you mean? Are you going to attack me in this place? ”

Li Ang directly drew his sword and stared at Yin Geer with an unkind look.

Yin Geor took a few steps back and retreated behind the lion knights: "Catch him!" This is a traitor! ”

The lion knights did not move.

"Catch him! Otherwise, not only Lehman will die, but you will also die! ”

Yin Geor shouted.

The lion knight in the front row whispered to Leon, "I'm sorry, Lord Leon. ”

Afterwards, all the lion knights drew their weapons.

……

In the few days that Leon led the team to leave White Deer Castle, a storm broke out in Lion Lake City.

Grandlon, the flag bearer of the First Flag Guard in Lake City, is accused of ravaging and murdering Nerda's handmaiden, accused of his wife, Nerda......

In fact, many of the maids in the families of the great nobles are the daughters of the knights in the family, and they are nobles.

Therefore, the murder of a maid is not a trivial matter, and the crime is equivalent to killing a nobleman for no reason.

Although this accusation was not established in the end, and the 'real murderer' was sent to the gallows just one day later, the two divorced justifiably - the wife charged her husband with capital crimes, and if the divorce was not made, neither family would be happy.

And on the day of their divorce, Alma's death was publicly announced, and the Duke of Lion Lake City was succeeded by Nerda.

Obviously, this divorce was made by the Holden family, in order to prevent the power of the duke from falling into the hands of Grandlon, who already held the power of the army.

But Grandon was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he fanned the Lion Lake City Flag Guard to stage a demonstration - a heavy cavalry team of more than 500 people went on a rampage to hunt down 'traitors' in the streets of Lion Lake City, causing panic among the people......

Of course, this traitor did not exist, but everyone saw how much he had in charge of the Flag Guards.

Of course, Nerda panicked, she was just a little clever woman, and she couldn't go to war if she really wanted to fight.

At this time, her lover Milgan openly appeared in the hall of the lords of Lion Lake City.

Just one day later, Nerda announced her marriage to Mirgan and placed the duke's authority in Mirgan......

Of course, this was only a private authorization, and without the recognition of the king and nobles, it was impossible for Mirgan to become a duke.

But he became the military officer of Lion Lake City, and within a day, as a knight, he was given the village of Payne as a domain - but it was originally the domain of the Grandon family.

Grandlon, of course, was not convinced, and went to the door to theorize, and as a result, a duel broke out on the spot.

Milgan challenges Granlon, in the name of a love dispute, to a duel – barely a valid reason......

Although Grandon is divorced and is already an ex-husband, in the face of a duel launched by the person who cuckolded him, this is definitely acceptable to a man as long as he is a man......

As a result, Grandlon, who had fought with Ralph before, went into battle with an injury, and was easily defeated by Milgan, and was humiliated - Milgan slapped Granlon's lower body with his sword, and said in public that people were useless.

When Mirgan was in power, he probably got a little carried away and went a little too far.

It's understandable to kill someone in a duel, but this humiliation is a bit redundant - as a result, the Lion Lake City Flag Guards rioted as a result!

They refused to obey Milgan and Nerda's orders, and openly declared that they wanted Forcette to return to Lion Lake City to take charge of the situation......

A day later, Forsette did return to Lion Lake City, and he did have the support of the Lion Lake City Flag Guard.

In fact, he even had the support of Baron Kedren at Talon Fort, who brought him back.

Fawsette then went into the hall alone to meet his sister Nerda, and came out with a bloody face and a cold, cold look in her eyes.

He announced that the Holden family would be taken over by him, as would Lion Lake City, and that the murderer Milgan was immediately wanted.

There was no one in the Horton family to refute it.

Because Narda is dead.

At the same time died, all the other sons and daughters of the Duke of Alma—the other four minor sons and daughters, who also died.

Fawsett became the first heir to the family, whether from Alma or Nerda.

And Grandlon also explicitly supported Forsette.

In fact, it is obvious who the murderer is, but no one will fight against Forsette at this time, and a person who dares to kill his own brothers and sisters is completely no different from his father back then.

In fact, the people of the Horton family identify with Forsette more, because such a character is like Alma's child.

After being wanted by Forsette, Mirgan, who had only been in power for two days in Lion Lake City, had to flee again......

He finally remembered the Griffon's Sword mercenary group that had accompanied him for many years, but he didn't know where his troops were now, and it was the First Banner Guard of Lion Lake City, which was back in the hands of Grandlon, who was chasing him - there was already a feud between the two sides, and they were chasing him very closely.

As a result, Mirgan fled all the way south and disappeared.

However, the most unexpected thing was that the Lion Lake City Banner Guard, who were originally chasing Mirgan, suddenly launched an attack on Changhe Town!

Moreover, the town of Changhe was actually captured in one day!

This is not because of how powerful the First Banner Guard of Lion Lake City is, but because Grandon actually holds the golden seal of the king of the Lion Kingdom in his hand! And claim that it is the will of the Lion King!

There were only more than 500 people in the Shihu City Banner Guard, and all of them were heavy cavalry without any baggage, so it was impossible to capture Changhe Town, and it was even impossible to organize a decent siege.

But Godric and Eric still left the town by boat from the docks, and did not hold on to the city, and it can even be said that they did not intend to stay here at all, but gave up the town of River.

Because they both knew that no matter where the King's Seal in Grandlon's hand came from, they couldn't fight the person who held the King's Seal anyway - it didn't end well if they won or lost!

If you win, you are flouting the king's authority, and if you lose, you will naturally lose your troops and become a prisoner......

Moreover, they knew that the golden seal was real—in the room where Alma was stabbed to death, there was a royal decree that transferred the town of Long River to Alma! The seal and handwriting on it are real!
