Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Duke Sandman is eighty-three this year, which is a rare longevity among warriors. And he is in a high position and is the mainstay of Amman, the country of giant shields. As a young man, Sandman, still a viscount, once accompanied the king on his expedition to resist the influx of orcs. At the critical moment when the main formation was attacked by the orc elite and was about to collapse, he led five hundred cavalry to break through from the flank, crushing the orc formation, and personally cutting off the head of the orc chieftain, making a great contribution.

After that, Sandman accumulated military exploits and was greatly appreciated by the king, and was made a marquis. Knowing that the orcs had always been a scourge to the kingdom, he prepared for war and trained 2,000 brave warriors. Finally, under the king's instructions, Sandman led the army deep into the territory of the orcs, with the warriors he brought out as the vanguard, broke the main force of the orc army, annihilated the enemy by 5,000, and made the orcs who had been in trouble for a long time collapse, and was finally named a duke.

In addition to his military exploits, Duke Sandman was also a personable knight. He was an upright man and had an excellent reputation among the aristocracy. After marrying Princess Christine, Sandman was even more powerful. But he was loyal and selfless in helping the king. He was never proud of his achievements, and he was very kind to other nobles.

Of course, no one is perfect. If you want to talk about the shortcomings of Duke Sandman, I'm afraid it's lustful. When he was fourteen years old, he had an affair with the maid, which enlarged the maid's belly, and then he was even more out of control, and he would have affairs almost everywhere he went. What's more, Duke Sandman has a wonderful appetite and is not a picky eater at all. The Huaichun girls who came to the door naturally laughed at them, and even the married ladies couldn't help but flirt and try their best to be a guest of the scene.

Now that Duke Sandman is in power. Again a hero of the country. Reputation. So if you do something unclear, you will naturally be invincible. He even has a special personal guard to help him search for beauty, as long as it is a beauty, it is not a problem whether it is high or low.

For a few years, everyone in Amman's aristocracy was in danger. As long as you have a beautiful wife and daughter, you have to keep a few eyes at home. For the people who are attached to the flames, it is certainly a shortcut to curry favor with the Duke. The nobles who were unwilling to use their wives and daughters as bargaining chips had their heads as big as a fight, and they had to prevent fire and theft and prevent the duke.

The most troublesome thing is. Among the aristocracy, it is difficult to put romantic affairs on the table. The story of knights and noble ladies is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and is a good story since ancient times. As long as you don't become the bitter master in the story, everyone is still willing to use it as gossip and talk about it. As for the unfortunate ...... who ran into the muzzle of the Duke's gun In addition to considering himself unlucky, can he still rebel and fight to the death with Duke Sandman, who is trusted by the king?

Fortunately, the nobles learned from the hard work and finally came up with a way to deal with it. After all, no matter how talented Duke Sandman is, he is fierce and fierce, that is, one person and one shot. So the unspoken rules quietly formed and became a good way for the nobles to protect themselves. Whenever Duke Sandman was on a business trip. Or when you admire the name of a noble lady and find an excuse to run to someone else's door. The nobles there would do everything they could to find a few beautiful women to send to Duke Sandman. After a few times, this matter became a rule.

Fortunately, Duke Sandman doesn't pay attention to his background, as long as he is a beauty, he is disrespectful. Therefore, the brothels in Amman have become strategic material reserves, and they have been searching for beautiful women everywhere at a political level. This is the result of the aristocracy's thinking, after all, there is no more concise and clear way.

As a result, over the decades, Duke Sandman's mansion was filled with all kinds of beautiful women. It is only by the continuous replacement of old age and decay that it can barely be maintained on a sustainable scale. He was energetic, almost singing every night. That kind of martial courage is probably better than when the orc army was broken.

It was only in the last decade that Duke Sandman relented. He's old and a little powerless. Even though he was a secret believer in the goddess of love and beauty, and had the blessing of the gods in some way, Duke Sandman still had to obey the old age.

However, with the arrival of a woman who can be called a stunner, Duke Sandman is majestic again. The woman was a newcomer who had been in the brothel's fashion lately, and all the courtiers under her skirt were convinced, so much so that in a short period of time, her value skyrocketed, and she finally fell into the eyes of Duke Sandman.

In terms of appearance alone, the prostitute named Garcia can only be regarded as the best choice, and there are still 108,000 miles away from Tianzi and the country. But her figure is almost perfect, and her words and deeds are so close to the bone that just a look can make people's blood surge. Duke Sandman, who had read countless women, only glanced at Garcia and knew that it was a masterpiece.

So Duke Sandman immediately spared no expense and sent someone to buy Garcia. For the first time in years, Amman's aristocracy has rebounded. Because there are several high-ranking nobles who know the taste of Garcia's marrow, they also have the meaning of Jinwu Zangjiao. But after a small twist and turn, everyone finally sold Duke Sandman's face.

For a whole week, Duke Sandman closed his doors, focusing on enjoying Garcia. Although Garcia is not good at words, her appearance in bed is really impeccable. Duke Sandman even took the holy medicine of the church several times in a row to survive his life. He lingered, and occasionally had trysts with her secret lover, only to feel like chewing wax.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and since Duke Sandman has been appetizing in some way lately, his vitality has been revived. And as a prince of the kingdom for decades, Duke Sandman has served two generations of kings. He does things clearly between public and private, and he will not abandon government affairs for the sake of the pleasure of bed.

At present, the most important job in the hands of Duke Sandman is to form an alliance with the Storm Country. As a powerful nation ruled by warriors and gods, Amman naturally did not turn a blind eye to the actions of the Thousand Laws City. It is only a matter of national interest and must not be taken lightly. Therefore, after making contact with the secret envoy sent by Senlan IV, the huge negotiations will officially begin.

According to Duke Sandman's estimates, this crusade led by the Stormland Nation and supported by the Holy See will be able to mobilize at least 30,000 soldiers. These people are far from the limit that the Central 6 can support, but the thousands of people who are used to deal with Aotlan and Qianfa City are already in a posture of killing chickens with knives.

If the war goes smoothly and Otlan can be wiped out in one fell swoop, most of the coalition forces will have the idea of crossing the sea to destroy the Thousand Law City once and for all. After all, it is now the world of warriors and priests, and after a hundred years of accumulation, the strength has far exceeded the Thousand Law City controlled by the mages.

Therefore, in the eyes of Duke Sandman, the alliance with the Storm Country Senlan is by no means as simple as countries putting together a large army. As expected, I'm afraid this will be the last declaration of war for the mage, and it will definitely be a good opportunity to go down in history. So Duke Sandman was so thoughtful that he began to negotiate without giving an inch. He wants to secure a prominent position for himself and go to the field as a knight. Duke Sandman knew in his heart that this would probably be his last expedition. Whether it can be truly famous in the world or not is all in one fell swoop.

Now Duke Sandman is sitting at the huge table, pondering the correspondence with Senlan of the Stormland Country. He stared at it, not thinking about Garcia in the secret room next door. In a man's life, the most important thing is fame after all. Duke Sandman, of course, likes women, but he is not the kind of waste who can't tell which is more important than the other, and can't climb out when he sinks into the gentle country.

Just as Duke Sandman was deliberating word by word, there was a knock on the door. He frowned and said unhappily:

"Come in. ”

Imran, the old butler, pushed the door in, his face filled with irrepressible worry. He was a confidant of Duke Sandman, and in his early years he accompanied Duke Sandman in his expeditions to the north and south as an attendant. After seeing Imran's face, Duke Sandman immediately dropped the pen in his hand and asked in a deep voice:

"What happened?"

"Yesterday Baron Thorpe was unwell and bedridden. Two hours ago he had died of blood all over his body, and an hour earlier his wife, his son, and the doctor had all died of blood. Five other royal knights died of the same symptoms, as well as the owner of an aquamarine brothel. ”

Imran replied with his head hanging down, his shoulders trembling slightly. Duke Sandman was surprised, rubbed his forehead and said:

"Could it be...... Assassins poisoned him?"

Such a far-fetched speculation is because incineration is rare in the world, and few people know about it. And the condition at the time of illness looks similar to that of a strong poison.

Without a clue, Duke Sandmann immediately informed the king of the situation. At the same time, he sent people to probe the water source to see if anyone had poisoned the well or river. After a lot of chaos, Duke Sandman found nothing, and more people began to fall ill and die. In a fit of rage, he mobilized his army to patrol and at least stop the Assassins from poisoning.

The situation was serious, and Duke Sandman was busy and stayed up all night, and it turned out to be a little burning. As a high-ranking warrior and blessed by the true gods, he would never have gotten sick. If you count it, you can only blame it on your old age. Duke Sandman lay on his hospital bed and sighed, nostalgic for himself when he was young and still alive in the snow.

The next day, Duke Sandman's condition deteriorated, rather than improving. He could only half-lie on the bed, giving orders to the officers who kept coming and going, making reports. Fortunately, his concubine Garcia sat on the edge of the bed and served, although she never took the initiative to speak, but she was gentle and considerate, and comforted Duke Sandman's heart.

"The king has arrived!"

There was a shout outside the door, it was the king who cared about the old ministers who had come to visit the sick himself. Duke Sandman was in a better mood, and he was about to order Garcia to retreat first, when suddenly his eyes widened again.

Under the gaze of Duke Sandman, Garcia spilled blood from the seven orifices with the same soft smile on her face as ever. She stared at Duke Sandman, and suddenly, she fell silently. A wound appeared from Garcia's skin, blood splattering. Duke Sandman was dumbfounded, and he didn't know that he was being sprinkled with blood all over his face. (To be continued......)
