In the not very spacious tent, the knights of Dorne in armor walked in one after another, making the place a little crowded.

As dusk approached, and the light dimmed, Princess Arleon asked the soldiers to light candles.

By the time the unique smell of desert lizard grease spread, there were already hundreds of knights in the camp.

Princess Aleen's gaze slowly swept over these people, remembering their surnames, their powers, and their habits.

This is a skill that must be mastered by those in a higher position.

Standing first on her left was a man with a huge hooked nose, silver and black hair, and lilac eyes, which Alene knew was Geralt Dane, the "Dark Star" from High Hidden City.

As the most powerful branch of the Dain family in Starfall City, Dayne of High Hidden City obviously has the ambition to enter Starfall City when the bloodline of the main branch is withering.

Therefore, among the reinforcements recruited this time, the army of Gao Yin City was the largest, with three thousand people, which can be said to have poured out.

It's just that Geralt Dayne, the eldest son of the High Hidden City, doesn't seem to have a good reputation, and Aliane doesn't like the way this person looks at him.

But she didn't let that alienate her, on the contrary, she felt that Geralt Dayne was indeed a suitable person to inherit Starfall.

At least it's better than that Natalie Dane who came out of nowhere.

So, she met the other party's hot gaze and returned a charming smile.

Sure enough, Geralt Dane's breathing instantly accelerated, and his waist straightened even straighter.

"Sir Geralt, your surname is Dane, and now that the Riverbend people are standing on the territory of the Dane family, what do you think should be done?"

"Drive them out into the sea!" Geralt slapped his chest hard and yelled.

"Excellent! This is the real Dane! Alene said meaningfully.

Then she turned her gaze to another young knight next to her, who had a black vulture painted on his chest armor and a pink baby on his paws—the coat of arms of the Brammon family.

Alenne recognized the young knight as Penrose Bremont, the eldest son of the House of Bremont. She remembered that this man had served as an attendant to her uncle, who had made him a knight.

Seeing the princess's gaze, Penrose hurriedly bowed her head and saluted.

This is a knight you can trust.

Arlene nodded secretly and asked:

"Sir Penrose, what is your opinion?"

"The Bremen family will always follow in the footsteps of the Sun Halberd!" The young knight's face was slightly red, as if he did not dare to meet Alene's gaze.

"Excellent! The Bremen family is always as reliable as a mountain! Arrene complimented, and her gaze continued to scroll.

Next to the team of the Brammon family, there were five knights with the golden crown and skull crest on their armor, but Alen didn't know any of them, and could only identify them from the coat of arms.

The city of the royal mound is located at the Prince's Pass, guarding the gate to the north of Dorne, the location is very important, the Martell family has always been close to them, but this time, none of the descendants of their family came, which made Arlene's heart sink slightly.

But she still spoke: "The Manwudi family has always been at the forefront of the fight against the river, and if I remember correctly, the golden crown on your family's coat of arms was obtained after killing an ancient riverbend king." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." A knight of the Manwudi family stepped forward and said, "We have a deep enmity with the people of the river, and we will never give in to compromise!" ”

Alen nodded in satisfaction and turned her gaze to her right, where a dozen or so knights with red and yellow interlaced flame crests on their chests stood out, all of whom were from the Ulle family of Hellgate.

The illegitimate daughter of Count Haman Ulle was the lover of Uncle Arlene, and he bore him four illegitimate daughters.

These "sand snakes" were all Arlene's childhood playmates, so she looked at the knight of the Urle family with a very kind gaze.

Earl Haman Ulle also responded positively to Princess Arlene's call, and this time sent his younger brother Sir Ulrik Ulle to lead 2,000 family troops to support.

Before Arlene could speak, Ser Ulric took the initiative to step forward and saluted:

"Your Highness, the longsword of the Uller family will always be wielded for you!"

"The loyalty of the Uller family will never be questioned either!" Arryne replied with a smile.

Her gaze continued to roll, greeting each of the families who came to support.

The Coggle family in Sandstone City, the Fowler family in Celestial Pole City, and the Ellenwood family......

It wasn't until she saw the blue-eyed, blonde knight standing at the door of the tent at the end that Arlene's pupils shrank slightly.

The coat of arms on the man's chest was a black gate in the sand—the coat of arms of the Ellenwood family.

The Ellenwood family has many titles, such as "Earl of Ellenwood City", "Noble of Blood", "Guardian of the Bone Road", and "Lord of the Green Hills......

But they once had an even more prestigious title - "The High King of Dorne".

As one of the most powerful families in Dorne, the House of Ellenwood was once the biggest obstacle to the Martells' conquest of all of Dorne, and although they have now bowed to the Solar Halberd, there has always been an undercurrent between the two families.

Arlene's uncle was suspected of poisoning an Earl of Ellenwood, and in order to appease the anger of the Ellenwood family, Prince Doran gave his eldest son, Quentin Martell, to the Ellenwood family as an adopted son.

It is said that it is an adopted son, but it is actually a proton.

This time to gather reinforcements, Alianwood did not expect the Ellenwood family to send people, after all, the relationship between the two families is not good, and Ellenwood City is located in the middle of Dorne, far away from Starfall City, and there is enough reason not to send troops.

But unexpectedly, the other party actually sent troops.

But he only sent one knight, plus more than thirty cavalrymen.

It's said to be support, but it's more like you're here to watch the battle.

But Arlene still treated him the same way: "I'm grateful that Ellenwood City has come thousands of miles to help. ”

The blue-eyed and blonde-haired knight bowed and saluted, "Your Highness, you don't have to be polite, this is our obligation. ”

"Is my brother okay now?" Alen asked suddenly.

"Everything is fine with His Highness Quentin. The Earl was also ready to marry Miss Guannese to him. ”

"Yes. Thank you to the Ellenwood family for taking care of my brother. Ariane suppressed the churning thoughts in her heart and asked in a deep voice, "I wonder if you are still willing to follow in Martell's footsteps?" ”

"Of course. The Ellenwood family will always be the Martell's most loyal men. ”

"Good!" Aliane smiled and clapped her hands.

The tent curtain was lifted, and a camel was brought in.

Alen drew her sword and walked over to the camel as the crowd looked at her in confusion.

Phew!

The sword stabbed out and plunged into the camel's abdomen, leaving only the hilt out.

Blood spurted out, drenching Arlene.

But she did not dodge, and waited until the camel fell to the ground with a wail, and then drew her long sword, took a few steps back, and stood still, looking at the crowd quietly.

Daemon Shad was the first to react, and he also drew his long sword and stabbed the fallen camel.

When the rest of the knights saw this, they immediately understood, and they did the same.

It wasn't until everyone's swords were stained with blood that Aliane smiled with satisfaction.

I saw her raise her long sword above the top, and her voice was as hard as iron:

"Before the invading enemy is completely destroyed, if anyone dares to disturb the morale of the army and retreat lightly, he will die like a camel under the sword! May the Seven Gods bear witness to us! ”

The knights also raised their blood-stained swords and shouted:

"Witness of the Seven Gods!"
