402 Collision of Generals (3)
The night is desolate, and a lonely arc moon hangs in the air,
A silvery sheen wafted down from the sky, and the birch forests on the banks of the river were dyed with a hazy hue.
The refreshing night breeze with the roar of the river dispelled the heat of the day, like a lover's gentle hand, gently pushing open the half-hidden window of the Wisharik manor,
A bright light shot out from the window of the second-story pavilion of the manor, like a sharp sword piercing the faint night fog outside,
"Squeak!" a silver carriage, escorted by several black-armored cavalrymen, stopped at the quiet courtyard gate of the manor.
"Stop!" a stern-looking guard captain waved his hand, and after verifying the procedures for leading the guards, he commanded the soldiers behind him and pushed open the hollow iron door engraved with Su Mu Lali lattice.
The sound of the wheels of the carriage sounded again, and it continued to drive forward for more than thirty meters before turning a corner and coming to the front hall of a small two-story building
"You two have worked hard!" Lidarchus, dressed in a military uniform, looked at the stopped carriage, walked forward a few steps, and opened the door with his hand,
"Pop" a stunning beauty with a beautiful face got out of the carriage, and the light water-colored long skirt could not hide her arrogance like ice and snow
Lidarchus was stunned
Followed by
Behind the pure as snow Mao Mona Qing, another tall beauty wearing silver chain mail came down,
The slender and taut long legs, the straight and toned body, and the delicate and close-fitting soft iron chain mail make her look like an energetic female leopard
The noble blood of the royal family makes Scelis, sexy mixed with natural noble temperament, and the beautiful beauties around her reflect each other.
The dark night seemed to glow with a magnificent atmosphere in front of these two beauties,
Even Lidarchus, who had always restrained himself with aristocratic etiquette, couldn't help but look sideways, and it took a while for him to wake up
"Please come with me, the Grand Duke has been waiting for a long time," Lidarchus then bent down to hide his embarrassment
"Boom!!" the three of them made a slight dull squeezing sound as they stepped on the wooden staircase of the attic, and the three of them, led by a captain of the guard in black armor at the hall door, came to a room on the left side of the attic on the second floor
"The Grand Duke! Lidarchus and Kugit have arrived!"
"Let them in!"
Hearing the sound of the guard's report coming from the door, the fat man who was signing the revised text looked up from the pile of papers
July is the month of harvest, and it is also the most burdensome season of official documents.
Financial statements from all over the country are flying like snowflakes, and the next step of farming preparations, as well as the construction of the business network in the western and the kingdom of Made, which has just opened, are some very difficult problems
The door was pushed open by the guards standing guard, and the fat man saw Lidakus walking in with two stunning beauties, one of whom was Mao Monaqing, whom he had seen in the west.
The other one should be the secret envoy sent by the Kugit royal court this time,
"This woman. []......?" the fat man's deep gaze flickered on Scelis's pretty face full of wild temptation,
I feel that this secret envoy looks a little familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere,
Seeing the fat man's puzzled look, Scelis, who was following behind Mao Monaqing, chuckled at the corner of her mouth, and said with a bit of the unique boldness of a prairie woman
"The Grand Duke is really forgetful, have you forgotten the people of the secret covenant of the Samore Fortress 2 years ago?"
"Your Excellency remembers this!" Scelis knelt on one knee, and in her hands, a scimitar inlaid with countless blue shattered star gems was shining with a faint blue light,
"Prairie Blue Moon!" The fat man's eyes lit up when he saw the scimitar, and he suddenly realized that this was the Kuji envoy who secretly traded grain with him in Samore two years ago!
"Hehe, it's Miss Sellese! I haven't seen you for two years, and you're still so impressive!" the fat man smiled awkwardly at the corner of his mouth,
A look of memory flashed in his eyes, thinking of the life-and-death battle he had with Kujitte's Left Guard King two years ago.
Now it has become the only savior in the minds of the Kujiit people,
I can't help but feel a little booed in my heart
He rose because of the Kugit War 2 years ago, and it stands to reason that he should be the sworn enemy of the Kugit people, but the world has changed so quickly
The enemy became a friend, and he had to pull the Kugit people,
If the Kugit grassland falls into the hands of the Ruierdians, the first thing Ruidian's strength will be destroyed is definitely Vekia, which once made himself a wolf
"What's going on! When did he and Kugit become two grasshoppers tied to a rope!" the fat man looked at Celess below, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly
"The eagle soars over the grassland! The falcon spreads its wings in the hills, and Kugit and Vikia are mutual friends!" Celelis, seeing that the fat man recognized the scimitar, stood up and gave the fat man a deep salute before speaking slowly
"The master of the steppes, the great King of Kujit Khan, expresses his heartfelt gratitude to the Grand Duke for his generosity and kindness some time ago, and specially sent me to bring something to the Grand Duke"
"Oh, King Kugit Khan is so gracious!" the fat man heard that there was a gift, and came to his senses,
In order to support Kujit and Rui Erdian, the fat man did not hesitate to reduce the price and wholesale a large amount, and supported Kujit 30,000 catties of fine iron dedicated to building weapons.
Every time he thought of this, the fat man still felt a pain in his flesh, although they were all weapons captured in the recent Northern Campaign, but it was also a large amount, if converted into gold coins, it was worth at least 300,000 gold coins
"Grand Duke, you know this!" Scelis pulled out a scroll from her intimate soft armor and gently placed it on the fat man's table
"Huh?" The fat man didn't know what Scelis was doing, so he curiously picked up the scroll from the table, gasped, and blinked his eyes for a while before looking at Sheris again
"What is this?" the fat man deliberately pretended to be stupid, and put down the picture scroll in his heart.
That's right, when the fat man saw it for the first time, he already knew what it was, this is a treasure map, but it's a pity! The fat man has seen this picture a long time ago.
Two years ago, the fat man relied on the same treasure map to obtain a large amount of wealth looted by Kujit, and also gave Samore the funds to rise.
What does the Kugit mean when they give this to themselves as a gift? The fat man was unable to make a choice for a while, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face.
"Have you seen the same picture?" Celelisa knew the fat man's character of recognizing money, and when she saw the fat man's strange face, her heart was cold,
This time, the royal court let himself bring this picture, with the intention of rewarding Samor with a buried treasure.
From the attitude of the fat man who can't help but be hot, the astute Scelis suddenly realizes something!
The time and place of Samar's rise coincided with another extremely important treasure map, the time when contact was lost.
"Could it be that the treasure of the Son of the Eagle is in the hands of the fat man?" Thinking of this, Scelis's heart throbbed and decided to continue the test
"This is a treasure map! The three places on it are the places where the royal court buried their belongings when they withdrew from Vikia 2 years ago, the total amount is about 4.5 million gold coins, this time the Khan King asked me to bring it to the duke to thank the duke for his generosity to Kujit" Scelis's bright eyes stared at the fat man, as if she wanted to see something on the fat man's face,
But except for the abnormal situation just now, the fat man was indifferent, and it was difficult for Scelis to determine, so she could only withdraw her gaze
Seeing that Scelis retracted her suspicious gaze, the fat man secretly sneered while taking the treasure map into his arms, "Silly girl! play psychological warfare with the fat man!
"Bang bang!" Just as the room was in embarrassment, a guard knocked on the door of the study and walked in with a military letter stamped with expedited fire paint, "Grand Duke, Northern Emergency." []......“
The guard whispered in the fat man's ear, and the fat man nodded as he listened, but his eyes glanced at Scelis with deep meaning, and Scelis's heart beat uncontrollably,
Scelis knew that there was no war in the north of Vecchia, so this urgent report must be related to Kugit,
What will it be? Disaster or hope?
Scelis looked at the emergency report in the fat man's hand, felt a shortness of breath, and her fingers pinched the edge of the trouser legs, and found it slippery, only to feel that her palms were sweaty
During this time, Celelise felt as if a whole century had passed
Sure enough, after the fat man waved his hand to let the guards go down, he didn't look at the emergency report in his hand, but changed his indifferent look just now, and looked at Scelis again with complicated eyes.
"I don't know if this is good news or bad news," the fat man paused, and saw that Scelis's nervous face was flushed, and his voice was solemn
"We received an urgent report from the north, about fifteen days ago, the Kugit royal court gathered 200,000 troops, and launched a full-scale counteroffensive against the army of Ryordian in the three directions of Arak to the east of the city of Tulga, Viradis in the south, and Viktu in the northwest, and captured the important northern town of Achmore six days ago!"
"Ahh
"Yes, you have captured Achmore!" the fat man nodded slightly, and instead of being happy, he frowned, and handed the urgent report in his hand to Scelis
Scelis took it nervously, her eyes swept several pieces on the urgent report, her beautiful big eyes flashed with crystal tears, and the hand holding the urgent newspaper trembled slightly
The news was so sudden, the tribe that had been cornered had achieved such a brilliant record, which filled Scelis's heart with shock and pride, and the only thing she thought about now was "I want to go back!"
Scelis couldn't sit still any longer, and stood up excitedly and said goodbye to the fat man, "Grand Duke, please forgive me for my rudeness, I am not only a special envoy of Kugit, but also a royal family of Kugit, my blood and identity are urging me to rush back immediately! I want to fight! Fight like an eagle soaring over the grassland!"
"If only you could really soar like an eagle" The fat man looked at the excited Spices, and instead of being happy, he stood up with a gloomy expression, and a sentence of emotion popped out of his mouth
"What does the Grand Duke mean by this?" Celelis's face was stunned, she was an extremely shrewd person, otherwise she would not have served as the foreign affairs officer of the royal court, and after a burst of ecstasy just now, she also faintly felt that something was wrong!
The urgent report just now only mentioned that the Kugit army advanced all the way to the Achmore area, but did not mention the situation of encountering the Rui Erdian army, it seems that the Rui Erdian army, which forced Kugit to death some time ago, disappeared and evaporated overnight.
"Don't you see it yet? This is a bureau! a bureau dedicated to you Kujits!" The fat man stood by the window of the room with his hands behind his back, his eyes looked at the vast moonlight outside the window, and his voice was low, "Your Kugit cavalry is as fast as the wind, scattered and impermanent, and it is impossible to form a large-scale war of annihilation.
If you want to get you together, you have to have a big enough bait.
And Achmore is,
The commander of Rui Erdian is really generous" The fat man sighed, one Aiche Mohr, let the entire 200,000 Kugit troops, give up their high-speed mobility advantage to defend the city! (!)
