Grasp the hearts of the people and conform to the general trend.

Roland has been pressed and beaten for several years, at this time, as long as someone stands up, takes the lead in meeting the enemy, and continues to win, then there is no possibility of power instability, Hoover, Howard and the knights under these bigwigs want to follow and participate in the war, saving the country is secondary, and proving that their honor is the main thing.

Unless they are willing to step up and open up another battlefield, they don't have to think about blocking it.

Hoover let his knights choose for themselves, and although many were still very loyal to him, preferring to bear the name of cowardice and stay behind to protect him, many more eagerly joined the expeditionary force.

After a little statistics, the number of knights under Di Liya at this time has doubled, reaching hundreds, to put it mildly, Ed has killed so many Ingill knights in the whole battle, but in normal times, these hundred knights alone can conquer the city, take several cities, and rise into a force that can be regarded as the number one in the country.

Of course, the overall number of knights in Roland is far more than this number, but most of them are unwilling to participate in the war, so when the crown prince is most difficult, the total number of knights in his hands is only about five hundred, and the number mobilized by Ingier's side is estimated to be at least five times more than this number according to Andrew's intelligence, and after being dispersed to the occupied area, the enemy still has a considerable advantage near the front line of Ovare.

"Big bad!"

Leaving the conference hall, Ed met the little girl Qili outside the door and greeted her in surprise.

"Well, it's good that there's not a piece missing. ”

Ed deliberately grabbed the other party, looking left and right for a while. One last word.

"Die!"

Qili punched Ed in the head, thinking that this guy had suddenly opened his mind, can't you see that this girl is dressed up carefully. It's really infuriating.

After going into battle last night, the soldiers were in a hurry, and Ed really didn't care about Qili's safety at all, but fortunately, the little girl herself is not a vegetarian, and when it comes to the way to survive and protect herself, she is probably a few points better than everyone, although her personal results are not good. But he didn't suffer any harm from the beginning to the end.

"Whew!"

Ed pretended to be, covered his head and fell down, so that the other party would not eat this set. After a fight, the two of them were in a much better mood and got down to business.

"Alas, I've got to go! I can't be with you. ”

"Ahh

"What's the matter? Got a new mission?"

"Not really. This year's task quota is almost completed, but I still have to go back to the headquarters at the end of the year, and it will take a lot of time to come and go. Qili played with her fingers and looked down.

"Oh, no, it's fine, you can't take on such a dangerous mission next time, it's okay to go back, there's nothing fun to follow us. It's too dangerous on the battlefield. Ed didn't know what to say, and was a little reluctant. But it is true that he has decided to help Delia embark on this dangerous path, and it is better for the people around him to stay away so that they will not be equally in danger.

"Stupid!"

The little girl suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed Ed's head, the young man thought that the other party was angry again and wanted to repair himself, and he did not resist, but enjoyed this rare intimacy very much, but he did not expect that his forehead suddenly felt cold, followed by a warm and slippery feeling.

When he looked up again, the figure of the other party had already drifted away, and there was no trace, leaving only a word.

"By the way, let's go see Mars!"

Ed raised his hand blankly and touched his forehead, put it in front of his nose and sniffed lightly, he remembered the smell, the fragrance of the corner of the little girl's mouth.

There was a chuckle from the side, and the boy looked up to see that it was the druid leader Malloy and the forest ranger leader Shirin walking together.

The latter covered his mouth and said to the male companion next to him, "It's really a stupid person, you say yes?"

Malone scratched her head, hesitated, gestured to Eddard to come back to him when she had time, and the two of them continued together into the conference hall.

Ed was still a little distracted, and slowly walked along the road for another distance, thinking about the people around him, is it right for him to be in danger every day, maybe he should leave this war whirlpool to accompany the people who care about him, but where can he really be considered safe now, the few companions he met, Qili, Charlotte and even Delia, are accompanied by constant fighting and killing.

"Let's end this war as soon as possible, only in the era of peace can there be such leisure and troubles and feelings!"

With a sigh of emotion, Ed remembered what Kiri had said before leaving, "What's wrong with Max's kid? I haven't seen him in a while. ”

Ed recalled that recently, this Di Liya's more trusted personal soldier did not show up, he was not surprised that the two would know each other, Qili, this girl likes to run to Di Lia's side the most, and Max is one of the more clever of Di Liya's personal guards, and it is normal to know each other.

With that in mind, Ed inquired about Max, and the news he heard shook his heart.

"Oh, Max boy, don't mention it, it's been too bad lately, his father was seriously injured in the city last night, and Commander Delia specially approved his leave, and he will accompany him at home, I don't know what the situation is. ”

"Impossible, didn't you see that his father was okay when he entered the city last night, and the battle was already in the second half of the battle, why was he suddenly seriously injured?"

Along the way, Ed came to his destination, and several warriors in armor were chatting at the door, and when they saw him, they all stood up for the first time and greeted the commander loudly.

"Lord Elder Knight!"

Ed recognized this as a soldier in the Deria Army, and if he couldn't remember, the Engraving could instantly provide a scan of everyone's face and a record of their words and actions for review.

Waving his hand, Ed casually asked a few words, confirming the news he had heard earlier.

The owner inside the door heard a voice from outside, and a young man in plain clothes pushed open the door and walked out, "Lord Eddard, why are you here!"

It was Max who heard the voice, but Ed was startled when he saw it, his face was withered, his eyes were gray, and he couldn't see his heroic appearance before.

"Don't call me Lord, call me Big Brother, Max, what the hell is going on!"

Ed stretched out his hand to support the other party, he still remembered the nervous appearance of the other party before going to the battlefield, frizzy, followed him all the way to Ovalé to report the news, and refused to go to see his father twice, but he didn't expect to fall to such a point at this time.

"Big, big brother, my father ......" Under the agitation of the mood, Max fainted to the ground after only half a sentence, and it seemed that the mental consumption in a short period of time was also very great.

Ed and several soldiers next to him hurriedly supported him and carried him into the house together, leaving behind him to watch the lively neighbors and make a discussion. (To be continued......)
