618 AH, March 9.

Lord's City, Hilltop Earl's Palace.

Council Hall.

Priscilla stood beside the sandbox, analyzing the chaotic situation step by step.

More than a dozen high-ranking officers and clerks are on the left and right, and chaos is the ladder, which is also an opportunity for the Ulovar Lord.

As for someone, he sat on the side with an amber drink, and due to the circumstances, Priscilla lost the conditions to capture Anna, and immediately turned her attention to the new prey.

“…… Now that the Dragon Kingdom is too busy to take care of itself, Yestij's national strength is withering, and we are in the position of the original bridgehead, and we are in an advantageous position in geography and state.

Take the northern city, so as to deter the royal capital, and then capture the border Great Wall, defend the holy kingdom from the outside, close the border territory and the hub city in the middle, and then take away the abyss valley, the only way for the sub-people to get out, and close the four directions with the lord city as the center, and after the matter is completed, reconcile with the kingdom, and the concubine is [Sun Gong]. ”

The Great Wall of the Border - the Northern City - the Hub City - the Abyss Valley, the four nodes can just set up a defensive line, and the only flaw is that there is no support to resist the Pro-Dragon Kingdom.

The deputy chief of the knights was a resolute middle-aged man, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but say:

"Lord Earl, judging from the current situation, if you want to become a duke, you have to start almost from scratch, and we have not occupied any key nodes."

Priscilla shook her fan and said unhurriedly: "The concubine knows, that's why you have a place to use, the hub city is in the hands of Marquis Raven, the concubine will negotiate with him to take it, under his leadership, the kingdom army has killed 50,000 people, if it fails to fully regain control of the Northland, the one who welcomes this great nobleman is to be given up by the royal family, so getting our assistance is an option that he can't refuse, and the concubine is responsible for this."

The second is the Northern City, which is handed over to the concubine's brother, Hudmel Delton, haven't you always been curious about the identity of the First Knight before, and now there is nothing to hide, take the Northern City, collect the rout troops scattered in the war zone, and your task is to advance into the buffer zone and establish a stronghold that threatens the Great Wall of the border, this is the initial strategy. ”

The officers all looked at the young man who was drinking alone not far away, the other party's sense of presence was quite weak, and he was wearing black armor at the moment, like a complete outsider.

I didn't expect the other party to be the earl's brother, no wonder he became the first knight when he first came, you must know that all along, but there are countless young talents staring at this position, the first knight belongs to the personal guard of the guard, and needs to protect the safety of the lord at all times.

When the meeting was over, the officers and clerks had dispersed, and the council hall was empty, Priscilla walked up to someone, reached for the other's bottle, swallowed a few sips to rehydrate, and said:

"The Ulovar Territory has not yet had the foundation to start a war with the Quartet, so after taking a large territory, it has to be temporarily reconciled with the kingdom, which requires a little sacrifice, the golden princess Lana is running around to contact, the concubine has sent a vicious man to lock the position, first seize it, when the time comes, you will marry her as the concubine's brother, and the royal family can also pinch your nose and recognize the concubine's dukedom, the king is sixty years old this year, the first prince proved that he is useless in the military field, as soon as the king dies, the golden princess is promoted, When the time is right, the concubine will be the new king. ”

Jiang Yuan was noncommittal about this usurpation plan, but said: "Now that you can't even see a shadow in your hands, you are already ready to become the new king?" ”

"The world is tailor-made for concubines, and it is also your food, as long as we join forces, there is nothing that cannot be done, concubines are so convinced." Priscilla said with rare sincerity that she sincerely trusted the ability of the guy in front of her who was superior to her in appearance and arrogance.

"I refuse to marry a hairless cat."

"It's a strange idea, but that's just in name, you don't even have to live in a room with her, and the concubine doesn't worry that you will have to choose the latter between your wife and the lord in the future."

"I'm sitting under one of them."

"If you're interested, you'll care."

After months of observation, Priscilla felt that even if the throne was in front of her, this guy would say throw it away.

"Northern City is the top priority, and the concubine will go to the Hub City to negotiate later, so I can only leave it to you."

"Isn't it good?" Jiang Yuan asked, although he can gain experience points by participating in the war, he never works for a day.

Priscilla untied one of the two emerald green gems on her white neck.

"This is something given by the concubine's mother, you destroyed one before, so I can only give you one, just use it as a reward for your work, don't die easily."

"Olive Leaf Held by a Dove", a world-class item white olive garland, has a total of 36 olive gems that can bring people back to life and keep them in perfect condition, and the effect is a one-time effect.

Jiang Yuan took the emerald gemstone, this thing can't be effective in the case of soul death, but it's not bad.

……

Early the next morning.

A hundred-man cavalry team set out from the city of the lords.

"My lord, the northern city should be under siege by the kingdom army now, and it is still the territory of the subhumans." The cavalry captain said that because Hudmeier was the earl's brother, he had a basic loyalty to him.

"Send thirty men out and look for small subhuman troops, bandits, and routs." Jiang Yuan said.

"Understood."

The captain of the knights picked up the command flag and waved it, and the three ten-man teams immediately dispersed.

The procession continued in the direction of the northern city, and at noon a sentry came back to report that a cavalry of about fifty goatmen had been found in the east.

Lunch ended in a hurry, as the supply could only last for seven days, and the soldiers tacitly packed up the leftover dry rations.

Jiang Yuan turned on his horse, and more than 70 people marched at full speed in the eastern direction.

Ten minutes later, a group of subhumans with goat-like lower bodies appeared on the edge of the woodland, and unlike human soldiers who needed specialized food, goat-people were able to maintain their physiological activity even if they ate leaves and green grass.

The moment before it was exposed, Jiang Yuan bent his bow and set up an arrow, the basic attributes of the high-level magic prop hunting bow were very good, after the arrow left the string, the sound of breaking the wind was sharp and piercing, and the wind element arrow spanned a distance of hundreds of meters, and hit the chest of the leader of the goat people, completely shattering his simple armor.

The cavalry team unfolded the encirclement, and one by one the wind elemental arrows fell down the goatmen who were about to flee, Jiang Yuan came to the side of the leader, and directly cut off his horse, blood splashed, the leader of the goats was unknown, but he still activated the racial talent [Rage Charge] skill, and charged forward with his hooves.

The golden-red coat appeared, like a bright flame rising, and Jiang Yuan knocked the goat leader to the ground with a punch.

"I'd like to see a few of you who would rather die than give in."
