Chapter 603: White-eyed wolf
"Blanche, why are you here, outside the city?" Vorster had heard too much bad news today, and he habitually felt his heart sink when he saw Blanche.
"Not long after you entered the city, Edlaide attacked us. As a result of our negligence, and the cooperation of a traitor, Greg, we were all soon captured by Edlaide!" Blanche sighed. He pulled a chair and sat across from Vorster.
"Greg, this bastard, I have always trusted him so much, and he actually did such a thing that is not as good as a pig and a dog?!Don't worry, when we leave here, I will definitely send someone to kill his whole family and avenge you!"
"You guys?" Vorster seemed to think of something suddenly, and he looked at Blanche with a few more questions.
"That's right, I'm among the 'we'!"
"I used 10,000 purple gold coins and the promise of 'let Greg go' for myself in exchange for freedom!" Blanche did not hide it, and truthfully stated the reason why Li Zijun let her go.
"It's as simple as that?"
"Could it be that His Highness even suspects me?"
"No, no, I just think Edredder is scheming, would he want to let you go?"
"I think he might be 'trying to get caught'!"
"What do you mean?" Vorster frowned at Blanche's words.
"When Edlaide let me go, I overheard White and Stutta mention a place that seemed to be about to be transferred there. ”
"Where?"
"Princess Ridge!" Blanche kept his eyes on Vorster as she said the name of the place. I saw the panic in Vorster's eyes. Blanche couldn't help but shake her head secretly: Edlaide guessed right again!
"Edlaide is really going to lead the army to move there?" 'Princess Ridge' was the retreat path that Vorster was preparing to choose, and when he heard that Li Zijun intended to transfer there, he couldn't sit still anymore.
"It's not an 'army'. As far as I've observed, Edlaide doesn't have more than 3,000 soldiers and horses!"
"Only 3,000 soldiers and horses?"
"Indeed, 'there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses'!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the team I led had been fighting for several days in a row, and the other side was covered by a traitor, Greg, I firmly believe that we would never have been captured lightly!" Seeing Vorster's inadvertent 'disdainful' look, Blanche was a little angry. Although she is reviewing herself on the surface at the moment, in fact, she is complaining that Vorster is misdirecting and not knowing people!
"The defeat was entirely due to my miscalculation of the form, and I have nothing to do with you!" Vorster naturally understood what Blanche meant. He was more aware of Blanche's role in his future development, and thinking of this, he hurriedly took the initiative to take responsibility for Blanche's defeat.
"If Edlaide really only has 3,000 soldiers and horses. This is not an opportunity for us!"
"Your Highness, do you want to?"
"Most of our disrespects this time are because of Edlaide and Fred! And without Edlaide's recommendation, the old man would not have been able to reuse Fred's cripple! Edlaide was the culprit who sabotaged our operation!"
"He hid aside at this time, so that I could not find him. He actually dared to ambush me with 3,000 people at 'Princess Ridge'?! This is really a godsend, I will get rid of him quickly!"
"Your Highness, by all means!" Blanche wanted to persuade Vorster to bypass the 'Princess Ridge', but she never expected that after listening to her words, Vorster would have such an idea, and she couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"What, do you want to repay Edred's kindness to you for not killing you?"
"Your Highness. If you think about it: Edlaide has always been cautious, for so many years. Have you ever heard from him a secret that worked for you?!"
"Don't forget that Edlaide is badly wounded, and he can only rely on others to help him carry out his plan. Some omissions are inevitable!"
"But White and Stutta aren't the kind of negligent people, so why did they discuss 'Princess Ridge' when I was about to get closer? Don't you think it's a bit of a coincidence?"
"I guess Edlaide should have known that the real commander of the city was Fred at this point, and he did this to sabotage Fred's plan and get revenge on Fred for not saving him, so as not to let Fred take the most credit for this battle!" Blanche hesitated and told Vorster his judgment.
"You mean that Fred has guessed which way I'm going to retreat, and he's ready to besiege me there?"
"Am I a 'transparent person' in the eyes of the two of them?" Vorster looked at Blanche and sneered, his face instantly extremely palpable.
"Your Highness, that's not what I meant!" Blanche had been hesitating, just worried that Vorster would have such a misunderstanding, so she hurriedly waved her hand to explain.
"That's not what I mean! Mr. Monroe's letter I believe you should have seen it too, since Sir promised to do his best to hold off Higgins and the cavalry of the Northern Legion, then with what I know about him, he will definitely be able to do it!"
"Without the cavalry, even if he Fred really expected which way I would go, he wouldn't have time to stop us!"
"Your Highness!"
"Say no more! I've made up my mind, and I'll withdraw south from Princess Ridge!" Vorster waved his hand at Blanche, announcing his decision beyond any doubt.
Putting aside how Blanche tried to persuade Vorster to change his mind for the time being, he turned his head and said that Li Zijun, who had returned to the Church of the Illuminati.
After watching White and Stutta arrange the wounded, Li Zijun and the others came to Alec's room and reported to him about the trip.
"Ed, add to the snake!" Alec couldn't help but shake his head after hearing Li Zijun signal to White and Stutta, secretly mentioning Blanche's matter.
"It's bad!" Seeing that Alec was slightly stunned, Li Zijun immediately understood what his father-in-law meant, and couldn't help but gently pat his thigh.
"What do you mean, did we put Blanche wrong?" White voiced the question on behalf of the others in the room who didn't understand Aggre's riddle.
"With Blanche's shrewdness, she will soon be able to detect that we are not really going to 'Princess Ridge' to set up an ambush, and the reason why we are doing this is only so that she can remind the Grand Prince not to go down that dead end!"
"You're worried that Blanche won't tell the Prince?"
"On the contrary, what we are afraid of is that Blanche will tell the truth to the eldest prince!" Speaking of this, Li Zijun paused slightly, and he turned his gaze to Alec's face.
"The eldest prince is arrogant, and the only one he cares about is Ed!"
"Blanche didn't say that Fred's fortification at 'Princess Ridge' was fine, once she said this situation, the eldest prince who had just suffered at Fred's hands would be more likely to embark on this path!" Li Zijun was not good at 'boasting', and Alec explained to everyone instead of him.
"Didn't he kill himself?!"
"Some people are so obsessed sometimes!" Li Zijun shook his head solemnly, at this moment, he seemed to have seen the final outcome of the eldest prince.
"Will Fred secretly magnify the prince?"
"Never!" Alec and Li Zijun exchanged a look, and then shook their heads at White in unison.
"Because of his physical relationship, Fred is a very sensitive person, and he is extremely demanding in his life! With his personality, as long as the eldest prince enters the 'Princess Ridge', it is equivalent to entering the road of no return and there is no possibility of survival!"
"That's why you and Ed don't die, right?"
"Ed, you shouldn't have recommended this 'white-eyed wolf' in the first place! Not only did you hurt yourself, but you almost hurt your father!"
"White, don't talk nonsense!"
"With Fred's talents, even if Ed doesn't recommend him, Virgin can't ignore his existence all the time. It's a matter of time before he is activated!"
"Besides, if he hadn't been in charge of the capital and commanded Ruoding this time, I don't know when the eldest prince's nonsense would be over!"
"He's just in the right place!"
"What if it's you?" Alec's question made White completely silent, and he turned his head to the side angrily.
"Father-in-law, with what you know about the eldest prince, is it possible for us to make him change his mind?" Li Zijun saw that Alec was about to reprimand White, and he hurriedly diverted the topic.
"'Suspicious', 'unruly', and 'no one in sight' are the most prominent characteristics of the eldest prince!
"Unless His Majesty Virgil asks Fred to open the net, it's just a very small possibility!"
Could His Majesty Virgil really be so ruthless? Moving at will, Li Zijun unconsciously turned his gaze to the direction of Firano City.
"Report to Your Majesty: The traitors Monroe and Bloom Jr. have been successfully trapped at the South Gate. I believe that it won't be long before they run out of ammunition and have nowhere to escape, they will raise their hands and surrender!" Almost at the same time as Li Zijun was looking at Filano City, Fred also began to report to His Majesty Fergil.
"How's it going over there?" Frigil, who was lying on the bed, coughed lightly twice and asked Fred in a low voice.
"The Great Prince's army has never been able to enter within a hundred meters of the Imperial Palace! With the cooperation of the Royal Guard, the city defense army is constantly compressing the living space of the rebels' two wings, and if there is no miracle, the Great Prince will soon give the order to retreat!"
"Where's Karen, the woman in black?"
"This woman is very alert, she seems to have noticed our ambush as soon as she entered the palace, and she immediately led her men to escape from the palace......!
