Chapter 47: All the way to the east
Catherine's man is called Roland, and he is the king of the Iron Fist dynasty on the continent of Enlos.
Catherine received the news this time to restore Erathia for her father's funeral, and King Roland naturally stayed in his hometown to wait for his wife's return and take care of Prince Nicholas.
Unexpectedly, after Catherine left, the king was captured in a battle with Kerrigan in Enroth, and was subsequently captured by Iorph.
"Is the message accurate?"
Xu Mochao always felt that the king of a dignified country would be captured, which was a little incredible.
"Can't be sure."
Catherine shook her head, her eyes resolute, "A few days ago, a messenger from Kerrigan came here and claimed that they had captured Roland and demanded a ransom of 1 million gold. ”
"Huh."
Xu Mochao smiled when he heard this, "1 million, it seems that the price of your man in their minds is not low." ”
"Whether it's true or not, I won't give in", Catherine looked at Xu Mochao, "We have interrogated the messenger, and he said that Roland was locked up in Cleves, so ......"
"So you want me to get your man out?"
Catherine nodded first, then shook her head again, "If Roland is really imprisoned there, it will naturally be to rescue him." But I don't think it's possible for the enemy to keep the hostages so close to the front line, and everything could be an elaborate trap. ”
There was a look of apology on her face, "The stakes are high, so I can only ask you to go, maybe you can rescue Roland, maybe you will find that this is just a trap." ”
As soon as she said this, Xu Mochao understood.
This thing is a pit, and it may be a hole where Roland is buried, or it may be a spiked trap coated with great poison.
But whether it was or not, someone had to try it to find out, so Catherine thought of herself.
But this woman is still kind, and she explained all this to herself before she went.
"If I'm not wrong, we'll be able to retake Standwick in no time", Catherine's eyes were full of confidence when the topic was raised, "and when that time comes, Aveli will be free to help us!" ”
Xu Mochao understood that this meant that Catherine also found reinforcements for her.
This woman is good.
"Okay, I'll do that."
Xu Mochao nodded, "When will you leave?" ”
"The sooner the better."
"Now then!"
After Xu Mochao left, Catherine breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, there were some things she didn't tell Xu Mochao.
The campaign to liberate Standwick did not go smoothly at first, and even General Kendall was captured in a battle.
Fortunately, Christine quickly rescued him.
Catherine believes that with the ability of Christine and Kendall, she will definitely be able to take Standwick soon and return the city to the embrace of her homeland.
After taking Standwick, Catherine's plan was to first go west and then south, first ending the war between Tethalia and Krurod in the western border of Erathia, driving them all back to their homeland, and re-establishing the borders of Erathia.
Then join forces with Avili and Bradaka to drive the underground lords of Nigon back to their homeland once and for all!
After these two things, go back and solve your father's affairs.
Thinking that her father was turned into an undead creature, and her husband's whereabouts were unknown, the two most important men in her life suffered so much for no reason, which made her both angry and sad.
Now that she asked Xu Mochao to help him find her husband, Catherine was honestly a bit of a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
……
……
When Xu Mochao embarked on his journey to Ioph, he was accompanied by a hero from Erathia.
Her name was Tarys, and she was a fine knight under Queen Catherine, who soon became a high-ranking officer after joining the Elasia cavalry.
This was not only due to her great horsemanship skills, but also due to her mastery of cavalry tactics.
In addition, she is also a good friend of another hero, Wilskai, and has heard a lot about Xu Mochao's deeds from Wilskai.
This time, Catherine asked her to lead a cavalry force to accompany Xu Mochao, and Tharis gladly went.
In addition to Taris and her knight troops, Catherine also specially arranged for a small group of angels to accompany Xu Mochao.
Because Xu Mochao himself carried the creatures of the dungeon, his morale would inevitably be affected after mixing with the human troops.
But it's different when there are angels in the ranks.
Due to the special abilities of the Angel Clan, the morale of the team they belong to will be greatly improved.
Moreover, the team arranged by Catherine is led by an archangel, knowing that the archangel can resurrect his own troops on the battlefield, this magical effect is needless to say.
Catherine was able to arrange for Angels to join the team under such tense circumstances, which can be said to be really quite kind.
But then again, although she herself thinks it's a trap, what if it's true?
This is to save her man, can you do it if you don't pay attention to it?
For Xu Mochao, having troops is naturally a good thing.
Although he felt that his current strength was enough to deal with those demons, who would dislike his men and horses?
But there are also unhappy ones.
For example, Basil Ray.
Ever since Tharis joined the team, Basiler has been keeping an eye on the heroic female knight with a wary eye.
Because she always felt that this female knight was a little too enthusiastic about Xu Mochao.
And then there's the winged angels.
She had never seen a female angel before, but this time she saw it.
I have to say that the face of the angel is so beautiful, even she has always been conceited and beautiful.
Especially the archangel who is responsible for leading the team, even as a woman, she can't find a single flaw.
People often use the face of an angel to describe people's beauty, but now it is a serious angel who is placed here, and it is needless to say that the appearance is naturally needless to say.
If it's just like this, the key is that this female archangel seems to be very interested in Xu Mochao.
Doesn't it say that angels are proud?
Are you an angel a little more reserved?
For Basiler's dissatisfaction, Eratom completely sees it.
She couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Basil Ray: It's already crazy.
Tharis was led to the war by Xu Mochao, and it was normal to say a few more words to his own general, right?
Not to mention that when listening to their conversations, they mentioned that they had mutual friends.
As for the female archangel, she was really interested in Xu Mochao, but it was not difficult to see from her conversation with Xu Mochao that she was just a little curious because she had never seen anyone who came here from the Kyushu Continent.
For Eratom's explanation, Basillei was dismissive.
"You know what, we just want to lick my general!"
