Chapter 492: Cowardly

Victor and Hamilton immediately discussed the countermeasures, but what they never expected was that when Victor summoned the generals to assign tasks, something happened!

"Marshal, last time due to my negligence, not only did Marcas, Maher, and Edlaide escape, but also inflicted heavy losses on our army!

"This time I am willing to make a 'military order', if I can't defeat the blocking force led by Diarra on time, capture their main force, and give my army a chance to completely annihilate them, I am willing to 'engage in military law'!" After Victor announced the pursuit plan, before Hamilton could say anything, Aubrey was the first to stand up to their surprise.

Aubrey's seniority was much higher than that of the generals in the account, and most importantly, it was because of his and Hamilton's strong support that Victor took over the command of this Fengqi army relatively smoothly.

At this time, in the face of Aubrey's request, Victor really couldn't find a reason to refuse, and in desperation, he turned his attention to Hamilton.

Although Hamilton did not avoid Victor's gaze, he was also helpless about it, so he could only shake his head at Victor secretly.

With a long sigh in his heart, Victor agreed to Aubrey's request:

"I'm still having a headache about who to choose to take on this heavy responsibility, and since the deputy marshal is willing to share the country's worries, I naturally can't ask for it!"

"I wish the deputy marshal a victorious start and success!" Although Victor was reluctant in his heart, on the surface, he not only did not show the slightest displeasure. Instead, he showed Aubrey a jubilant expression.

"Thank you Marshal for your success, the last general will live up to the Marshal's high expectations!" Aubrey got up. A military salute was given respectfully to Victor.

Seeing that Aubrey was so respectful to him, the dissatisfaction with him in Victor's heart gradually dissipated. He secretly gave Hamilton a look. Signaling him to inform Ed of the possibility of replacing Diarra, and then relay it to Aubrey after the meeting.

Hamilton quickly understood Victor's intentions, and he understood that this was the only way to do it for now, and he nodded slightly.

"Hamilton, you're not kidding me, are you?, how could Edlaide take such a big risk to break off the Proud King?!" Aubrey asked, his eyes wide, looking at Hamilton with a smile on his face.

After the meeting, Hamilton invited Aubrey to his tent in order to explain the situation more clearly. Told his guess with Victor. Of course, in his narration, Victor's name was withheld.

"Brother Aubrey, I'm not joking with you! With my knowledge of Edlaide and the analysis of the information I have at hand, I am ninety percent sure that he will replace Diarra and become the queen of Marcus!" Hamilton and Aubrey are world friends, so when no one is around, the two are always brothers.

"Edlaide is notoriously cunning and changeable, and you play against him. But don't be careless!"

"Brother, brother understands your kindness. It's just that I'm not stupid, brother! The reason why I fell for him last time was because I didn't know who my opponent was!"

"It's better if he doesn't come to replace Diarra this time, if he really dares to come. I promise to let him come and go, and help the marshal eliminate his henchmen in one fell swoop!"

"Big brother!" Hamilton didn't expect that his reminder would have the exact opposite effect on Aubrey, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious.

"Brother, don't say any more. Brother knows your hard work! Don't worry. My brother must be extra careful on this expedition, and never give anyone a chance to take advantage of it!" Aubrey raised his hand to stop Hamilton from continuing. It's just that his assurances finally made Hamilton breathe a sigh of relief.

Aubrey left Hamilton's tent seemingly with ease. But as soon as he returned to his station, his face sank.

"Grandma's, why is this Edred's ghost still lingering? Just made Lao Tzu lose a big face, and now he ran in front of me to show off his might, is he really determined to not go with Lao Tzu?" After entering the camp, Aubrey kicked the Maza next to the bed away, and said angrily.

"Young Master, what happened?" Seeing this scene, Aubrey's old family member, who was also his chief of guard at the moment, Yarlin took two steps forward and said with concern.

Aubrey and Yarlin grew up together, and their relationship was not much different from that of brothers. Hearing Arrin ask, Aubrey sighed and recounted Hamilton's reminder of him.

"Hamilton said it was his own speculation, but I think there must be something about Vic Duo in it! I wanted to solve his problems this time, but after listening to Hamilton's analysis, I am very likely to 'draw a snake to add to the problem'!" O'Briy said this, shaking his head helplessly.

"Young Master, since Marshal Victos and Lord Hamilton have already anticipated this situation, they will naturally set up corresponding countermeasures for this, why don't you?" Arrin pondered for a while before whispering in Aubrey's ear.

"With my friendship with Hamilton, if there was a way, he would never have seen my jokes. Even if he had the heart to do so, Vick would not allow him to do so. There's only one reason why they didn't tell me anything: they couldn't think of a foolproof way to deal with Edlaide!"

"You can't blame them for this! You also saw what happened last time, I originally thought that something was wrong with Charlotte's stinky girl, but later I learned that it was that kid who didn't know what means to know, and actually learned the contact information between me and Charlotte, and took advantage of this, he buried my five thousand elite cavalry! Jerome also lost his life in a daze. ”

"Now every time I think about it, I feel chills! Imagine that in that situation, if I had divided my forces and pursued Edlaide and I was the one who pursued Edlaide, I was afraid that the end might not be better than Jerome!" At this, Aubrey couldn't help but shudder.

"Young Master, since Edlaide is so difficult to deal with, can you find an excuse to return this task to Lord Victor? After all, the Lord did not force you to make a 'military order', maybe there is still room for negotiation!"

"Hey!" Aubrey was thrilled at first when he heard Yarlin's words, but then he sighed deeply and waved his hand helplessly.

"It's not as simple as you think!"

"If I do ask Victor to resign, I don't think he will refuse me, even if I can't give me any reason. It's just that my image in his mind is completely ruined! I must not do this!"

"Young Master, although Lord Victor has a deep background and can have your foundation, why do you care too much about his opinion? This time, you took the initiative to give way and gave him the post of commander of the army, which has already given him a lot of face, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't thank you, he won't make it difficult for you because you don't want to be the vanguard, right?!"

"That's a mistake! Yarlin, you don't understand! Don't think that this marshal is really given to him by me, it's just Victor's statement to save face for me!"

"As for the background, it's even harder for me to compare! There's one thing I just got the news about, and I haven't had time to tell you yet, that Victor has been chosen as the dual heir of the Dark Moon God Cult and the Fengqi Empire!"

"In the future, you must also remember: you must not show the slightest disrespect to Lord Victor in front of anyone!"

"You understand this time, why should I try my best in front of him, right?! I can defeat the battle, but I must not give him the impression that I am timid, once this impression is formed in his heart, my future will be completely ruined!"

"Yes!

"But this battle is not, not a war is not!Young Master, what should we do next?"

"Let's take one step at a time! No matter how powerful Edlaide is, he is a man after all, not a god! I am going to apply to Lord Victor for more troops, and since he knows that my opponent is Dongwoo's Edlaide Lee, he should support my request. ”

"In this way, I have at least twice as many troops as Edlaide, let's be more careful, I don't believe he can do anything to me?"

"No matter what, strength is the key to determining the victory or defeat of both sides!"

"If something happens to him, I can use this opportunity to teach him a good lesson and avenge Jerome!" Aubrey seemed to regain his confidence, his fists clenched and his eyes became more determined.

It's just that Yarlin, who knows Aubrey very well, became more and more worried after seeing his expression. He knew that Aubrey had no confidence in this fight!

"Did Aubrey believe you?" asked Victor as soon as he saw Hamilton.

"He doesn't care about it, but from what I know of him, he's fully convinced that Edlaide will replace Diarra. Hamilton frowned and replied to Victor.

"Isn't that great! He knows who his enemy is, so he won't make a wrong judgment as he did last time, which is a good thing! But why do I think you seem to be worried?" Victor said with some puzzlement when he saw Hamilton's expression.

"It's because I know so much about Aubrey that I'm so worried, because I know that the more he doesn't care, the more he doesn't have faith!"

"And I feel worse about him this time: I think he's been cowardly! It's more terrible than making judgments!" Hamilton hesitated to Victor's question, but he finally gave the specific reason for his concern.

"It seems that we can't put all our hopes on Aubrey this time!" Victor suddenly said thoughtfully and inexplicably to Hamilton. (To be continued......)
