Chapter 598: The Northern Legion is here
At three o'clock in the morning, the soldiers, who had worked hard for several days and nights, could finally sit down and have a peaceful meal, they ate very slowly, and they seemed to enjoy this moment of tranquility to the fullest!
"Let them all eat quickly, this is a battlefield after all, and there is not so much time for them to waste on eating!" "I don't know what happened today, Blanche always suspected that there was a large army hidden around them. This feeling not only tormented her own restlessness, but also made her soldiers suffer a lot. If it weren't for the persuasion of her maids, Blanche would have made them hungry to build fortifications!
"Miss, look at it, you are forcing them to stand up now, how much combat power can they have?"
"Anyway, there is no movement around, so the slave advises you to let them rest a little longer! ”
"While you're ready, miss, would you like to have some dinner?" said the maid as she handed a plate to Blanche.
"You eat first, I can't eat it!"
"Then how can you do it?! People are iron, rice is steel, you can't eat without eating!"
"What's the situation?" Just as the maid was trying to persuade Blanche to dine, a flag suddenly sounded at the top of the city, and Blanche immediately jumped on his horse.
"Don't eat, don't eat! Get up and get ready for battle!" Blanche ordered his soldiers to put down their utensils as she looked in the direction pointed out by the sentry at the head of the city.
"Why are there only these few people?" Blanche expected an army to appear in front of her, but what she didn't expect was that she tried her best. She hadn't been able to count enough of the ten people in her sight, and all ten of them were wearing the same uniforms as them.
"Why do you seem to be our people?"
"Of course it's our people! Don't you see that the guy in the lead is Greg?!" Blanche had already seen the appearance of the person who was coming, and she couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"You bring someone over. Bring this waste to me!" and then thought of the fact that this guy had lied about the military and made her misjudged, thus causing her to lose face with the eldest prince, Blanche instantly became angry and suddenly had the urge to kill.
"Miss!"
"Go!"
"Yes!" the maid called out to the two men, turning away, and in a moment's time, bringing the wolf-stricken Greg and his men to Blanche.
"Greg, how did you have a good night?" Blanche said coldly, glancing at Greg coldly.
"Returning to the princess: After a night of hard fighting, the last general finally broke out of the siege, and he should have come to report to you a long time ago, but I met some of our scattered soldiers on the way here. It took some more time to put them away, and please don't be surprised, Your Royal Highness the Princess!"
"You fart! Do you think I don't know, I just led the team to leave, and you gave me a 'smear on the soles of your feet' and abandoned the army! You lied to me about the military situation before, and finally caused more than 10,000 of my army to be innocently buried!"
"Greg, I really didn't expect that you, a rat generation, would dare to come back to me again!"
"Bright and bright" Blanche pulled out his sword under his side and put his backhand on Greg's neck:
"Remembering that you have followed His Highness for many years, and this time you finally did not surrender to the enemy, I will leave you a whole corpse. Do you have anything else to say?"
"Wait!" Greg felt Blanche's sword go sideways and wipe inward. He hurriedly let out a snort.
"Your Royal Highness, in that situation last night, it was normal for a misjudgment to occur, not to mention. I was not the only one who had misjudged at that time, didn't you also think that I could not do anything, so I was left behind?
"And you said, 'As soon as you left, I fled. This is a complete slander. Whoever reported the matter to you, the Admiral is willing to confront him to the end!"
"After you leave. The last general led all the soldiers and horses to fight a bloody battle with the locality, and we fought for more than three hours. It's been more than three hours!"
"In those three hours. Countless of our soldiers have paid with their precious lives! But not a single one of them flinched or surrendered in fear of the enemy, they were all true warriors!"
"After three hours, I judged that you and the army had withdrawn to safety, and I led the army to break out of the encirclement. As he spoke, Greg knelt down in front of Blanche with a "poof":
"Your Royal Highness, it is no problem for you to punish me, even if it is to cut off my head!, but you must not listen to slander and wronged our soldiers who died in battle!"
In the face of Greg's 'classic' performance, not only Blanche, who is not fully aware of the truth, but even Catherine, who is standing aside and disguised as a soldier, can't help but feel a little dazed. She even began to wonder if the qiē she had seen last night was real.
This guy's strength of 'talking nonsense with his eyes open' is really too strong! Not only did he say everything that Li Zijun handed over to him, but the cooperation in emotion and action reached an extreme peak!
Catherine was still a little skeptical when Li Zijun said that he would definitely be able to fool Blanche, but now, she completely believed it!
"Did you really fight for another three hours later?"
Hearing Blanche's question, Greg secretly let out a sigh of relief, his life was finally saved temporarily! Although Greg was laughing wildly in his heart, the expression on his face became more and more serious:
"Your Highness, you may not believe me, but you must not trust our warriors, and you can ask them for information, including the three thousand brothers who are rushing here. If I have half a lie, I will kill myself in front of you without you doing it yourself!"
"General, I'm wrong about you!" Although Blanche still can't fully believe Greg in her heart, but at this time, it is the time to employ people, especially after hearing that Greg has gathered three thousand people, she decided to let Greg go for the time being, in order to see the aftermath! Since she has such an idea, Blanche can't continue to let Greg kneel on the ground, she gestured to the people around her to help Greg up.
"Doctor, doctor, come and treat the general's wounds!"
"No, no, I have skin wounds on my body, and there is no need for those medics to waste their time on me. ”
"Our three thousand brothers are coming soon, and many of them are seriously injured, so please ask the military doctors to heal them!" Greg waved his hand, and resolutely declined Blanche's offer.
"In that case, I'd better send some people over to pick them up!" Blanche felt that Greg's appearance today seemed a little different from usual, and she couldn't help but add a little doubt to her heart, and she tried to test Greg's reaction in this way.
"That's great!Your Highness, you'd better send more medics, there are too many wounded among them!" Greg not only immediately agreed to Blanche's offer, but was also very pleased. And this is exactly the attitude that Blanche wants to see, and she gradually relaxes her vigilance against Greg.
"Where are they now?"
"They're not far behind the general, and lo and behold, they're already here!"
Following Greg's fingers, Blanche unconsciously turned her head to look into the distance, but at this moment, she suddenly felt as if someone had gently tapped her back with her fingers.
An irrepressible drowsiness immediately took over Blanche's brain, and if Greg hadn't noticed her condition and grabbed her arm in time, she would have fallen to the ground at this moment.
"Princess!"
"Miss!"
Blanche could clearly hear the calls of those around her, but she couldn't respond to anyone.
"What's wrong with you, Miss?" Blanche's state completely frightened her maid, she only knew how to cry incessantly, and couldn't think of what she should do next.
"Has Her Royal Highness been injured before?" asked Greg after pretending to look at Blanche's face, and then looked at the maid very solemnly.
"Yes, yes, Miss has been assassinated and wounded before!" At this moment, the maid was completely panicked, and she had forgotten that Greg also knew the fact that Blanche had been assassinated.
Her Royal Highness the Princess, this is a disease caused by overwork, and it coincides with fainting caused by excessive blood loss. This is not sloppy, it must be treated quickly!"
"So, that, what do we do now?"
"In this case, I will first send Her Royal Highness the princess back to the carriage with you, and you can pour some honey water on her. When her condition is a little better, we will immediately contact His Royal Highness the eldest prince and find a suitable place for the princess to recuperate!"
The maid didn't have time to think about it, and with the help of Greg, she sent Blanche back to the carriage.
While everyone was 'healing' Blanche, Greg's 'team' had already marched less than 100 meters away from the fortifications.
Strangely, the wounded soldiers, who had just languished, seemed to have changed their appearance all at once, and they jumped on their horses and rushed straight to Blanche's defensive position.
Due to the absence of Blanche's supervision, most of the soldiers in the position were still continuing their interrupted breakfast, and the few soldiers who had already eaten did not enter the defensive position, they either snuggled up in a corner, or just lay on the ground, enjoying the long-lost 'dreamland'!
"Dude, why are you running so fast, there is no one chasing you anymore!" Someone in the position of thousands of people finally noticed the anomaly, but just as he was about to open his mouth to question the approaching cavalry, a strong man's wanton joke interrupted his train of thought and made him pause.
It was by taking advantage of this inadvertent pause that the cavalry had already rushed to the front of the formation, and the grim smiles on the faces of the cavalrymen almost instantly ignited the painful memories of everyone in the position:
"The Northern Legion is here!" (to be continued......
