"Who was that guy just now?"

Jonas crawled out from under the bed and asked in embarrassment.

"An attendant, and he also thinks of himself as a steward. Had it not been for my wretched husband who promoted him, he would have been a beggar by now. I don't know where I picked it up. ”

Anne walked over to the bed and said with a look of displeasure. She sat lazily on the mattress and began to stare at the poet's handsome face again.

Beneath her ass lay a comfortable velvet mattress, and she pressed the bard against the bed, one hand over his chest.

"Waste is waste after all. ”

Jonas laughed.

"That's, okay, leave him alone. Let's go on, where was our 'chat' just now?"

Anna said, smiling wickedly and reaching out to ***

Jonas could only echo gently......

......

Tallinnham sat at the table, scrutinizing the handful of hair left on the ledger, which was too short for Lady Anna. But for a male servant, it's too long. In Berto's estate, male servants were required to have their hair cut short, which was Berto's request. Tarlinham just wondered why Anna had all this hair on her clothes. Also, the smell on her body is not right, it is an indescribable perfume mixture, there is the frankincense cream she uses on a daily basis, and the smell of other perfumes, in the whole castle, the use of perfume can be said to be Anna's prerogative, so, there are other people around her?

Tarynham frowned and pondered, if it was an ordinary friend, why did Anna hide it and not tell herself, if it was an ordinary friend, why had she never met this person, or did Anna hide something from herself?

Tallinnam was just pondering, he wanted to ask Anna's servants, but he thought that these servants were all people who had followed Lady Anna for more than ten years, and if Anna wanted to hide it, she would never let them know or reveal anything. And if you ask recklessly, you may also expose yourself. So, after deliberation, Tallinnham chose to remain silent.

He just watched, observed, the mistress of the castle, what the hell she was doing. Is there some secret behind the door? Tallinnam knew that he couldn't knock on the door to investigate, and Berto had only given himself the authority to manage the castle, not to search Anna. Anna is the woman Berto loves, and Tallinnham knows that he must be ten thousand careful with her.

......

A gray place, the morning is foggy. As soon as the camp was over, the Kislev army heading north packed their bags and continued on their way under the orders of Grand Duke Landau. Their destination was Erengrad, and since Rhodes became king in the north, Caterina, the queen of ice, was undoubtedly worried about the safety of the northern city of Erengrad, where there was a strong naval fleet, but the army was very scarce, only a thousand men, which was not enough to defend the city of New Erengrad. Therefore, the real purpose of Catalina's Northern Expedition was to reinforce Erengrad, and the Northern Expedition was just a gimmick.

The Greylands is a mix of forests, swamps, and hills, and it is rumored that it was here that Rhodes ambushed the Greenskins and angered Ironskin. Randolph didn't know much about the terrain in the area, he was from the south of Kislev and was not familiar with the north in the first place.

However, he was not worried. Because before heading north, the lord of the north, Volkuv, had already taken the initiative to get in touch with him. Splitstone Castle was on the side of the noble alliance in the original Erengrad rebellion, which was brutally suppressed by the Ice Queen, and the new lord Volkuf was really Queen Katerina's person, so Rhodes became the queen in the north, and this person went directly south to inform, and as the queen's eyeliner and leader on the northern front, he adhered to Splitstone Castle. Now, the leader has his first mission, and the first friendly troops from the south.

When Volkuv emerged from the woods on a brown warhorse, the Confederates almost thought of him as an enemy, and when he was about to aim and shoot, Volkuv in the fog called out his name. The castle banner hung limply in the humid air and hung over the shoulders of the flag bearers, while Volkuv, dressed in fine armor, rode to the Duke of Landau.

They looked at each other and smiled.

"They are preparing to attack Erengrad. "Search

Riding on horseback, Volkuf said with great ambition. It was as if the rest of the world didn't know about this information except him.

Lan Dao just narrowed his eyes and glanced at it, that was what he had come here for. Why bother with this northern lord said.

"How many men have you gathered for the king of the North, and does he have siege weapons?"

Lan Dao asked in a mocking tone.

"Lord Duke, please don't associate me with such a traitor, I am the Lord of Crackstone Castle appointed by the Ice Queen, I am loyal to Her Majesty the Queen, loyal to this country, if I have the opportunity, I am willing to sacrifice everything to repay the Ice Queen's kindness to me and my country!"

Volkuv turned his head and returned with a serious and serious expression.

"Don't be so serious, I'm just kidding. ”

Lan Dao returned with a smile.

Volkuv bowed his head and said no more, and the rain fell on his fine armor with a tick-tock knocking sound. It's like pleasant music. However, this music does not bode well for soldiers from the south. The climate here is so cold that the freezing air their skin and bones like thousands of cold needles. It doesn't snow, but it's colder than when it does. The climate in the north is like this, once autumn comes, it is equivalent to entering the cold winter. In the area north of Crackstone Castle, the temperature is freezing for half of the year, which is equivalent to the cold winter season in the south.

"You haven't answered me yet, do they have siege weapons? I mean Rhodes them. ”

Lan Dao then asked.

"Yes...... As far as I know, there are. Moreover, it is not unusual that they have siege guns, catapults, battering rams, siege towers or something, not unusual. ”

"In this way, Erengrad is dangerous. ”

Lan Dao frowned.

"Hmm...... But isn't your legion already here, and by this road we will be as far as Erengrad in a week. As long as they joined up with the defenders, Rod's Northern Coalition would not be able to capture Erengrad for a while. As long as time drags on long enough, the greater our hopes of victory. ”

Volkuf said confidently.

"It's not about wanting to win, it's about having to win. No matter in terms of military strength, economy, and population, Rhodes has no chance of winning. ”

The Grand Duke corrected.

However, just as the two were talking with confidence, the sound of countless arrows flying rapidly was heard in the woods, and in an instant, hundreds of soldiers of the regular army of Kislev were killed by hidden arrows.

"There's an ambush!"

The guards shouted......
