"This ...... It's a private recommendation!" Presnafa was a bead of sweat on the young man's head at a glance, and said with some embarrassment, "If it is recommended by the family, then it will not be my turn at all, and the family is not to the point of speaking for a barbarian! It's just a personal relationship" "Oh, is Your Excellency connected with the Falcon Kingdom?" The young man's eyes lit up, and he asked in a calm tone, "To be honest, the Falcon Kingdom is my big customer, and two-thirds of the overseas trade in the entire Northwest Sea comes from the Falcon Kingdom." Presnafa raised his eyebrows, and said noncommittally, "In just the first two months, the trade quota of the Northwest Sea has reached 400,000 gold coins," This was a one-year trade quota in the past, and you also know that if a person like us wants to have a chance to return to Kyoto, he must show enough ability, and if the Falcon Kingdom becomes the consul of the New Lordon region, then the trade quota will inevitably expand,

"Seven months later is the time for the family's annual assessment, and if I have a qiēshun lì, I should be able to transfer back to Kyoto! Otherwise, I will have to wait until another three years later, and who knows what will happen at that time?"

"That's what you say!" The young man nodded with emotion, he is also a wealthy family in Kyoto, who doesn't know whose details, don't look at Prescott is the younger brother of Finance Minister Prescott, but as a child of a wealthy family with fierce competition, unless you are lucky enough to be the heir of the family, after the age of 24, you will be sent to the family's foreign fiefdoms,

After three years of assessment, only those who can beat other fiefdoms are eligible to be transferred back, and there are countless people who die of old age in other fiefdoms, of course, there are also examples of returning and then transferring to the locality, just like Fort Juliel, who was in charge of the northwest raider, when he left Kyoto again and was transferred to the region, he was already the deputy commander of the Fifth Army of the Empire, representing the interests of the family in the empire, and becoming a powerful figure who actually controlled the party. However, in 2 years, he took over from his predecessor and became the commander of the Fifth Army, which was naturally the result of the family's support.

"Returning to Kyoto is the dream of many of the children of a wealthy family like us, and next year, I will also be transferred to the outer fiefdom!" the young man sighed deeply, his gaze swept across the sky in the distance, and said, "But what you do is only afraid that there are some problems, according to the rules of the empire." In addition to the recommendation of the Kyoto family, the regional consul must also have enough prestige in the region, the Falcon Kingdom, as a new force in the region, has no prestige at all, once recommended, I am afraid that the entire northwest coast will express a strong voice of dissatisfaction! This will also affect the prestige of the family in the northwest region, so I can't promise you this mention!"

"The northwest coast is now in a storm, and the big war is about to break out, and I believe there will be a result soon!" Presnaffa smiled disapprovingly. Said to himself in a sly manner

"Soon, how fast, you are very confident that the Falcon Kingdom will win in the end!" the young man glanced at Presnarfa in surprise, not knowing where the other party's strong confidence came from, "It's nothing, it's just a gut feeling!"

Presnaffa turned from the window and said, "Judging by the speed of the defeat of the Normans. The Falcon Army's combat effectiveness is very extraordinary, and what interests me the most is that the opponent's combat weapons are also something we have never encountered before, so there should be a surprise!"

Sunlight has just come down from the clouds. A milky white mist enveloped the land, and the breeze slowly dissipated. It gradually rose from the ground, and finally disappeared, and the world suddenly became much more refreshing and clear.

On the flat ground in the north-west of Normandy, you can see the rolling hills almost a few kilometers away, and on the edge of the connection between heaven and earth, you can faintly see the rolling clouds, which is in sharp contrast to the calm and comfortable look here.

Marquis Ushuaia, Marshal of the Duchy of Dunkil, rode on his horse, with obvious arrogance on his smug face, his eyes observed the flat area ahead, cloudless, and the visibility was very good, even with the naked eye, he could see the lonely Sher Sand Castle in the distance, since entering the Normandy border, he had not seen any living people, and it was the same now, near Sher Scar Castle, the Marquis of Ushuaia did not see any signs of living people

"Didn't you say that there are people here who are the Falcon Army?" the Marquis of Ushuaia turned his head and asked dissatisfiedly to one of the generals leading the team behind him, "It should be in the castle in front." The general who led the army said with an ugly face, his name is Benisaf, he looks burly and powerful, five big and eight thick, a heavy armor is like a steel, in the Duchy of Dunkiel is a brave general known for his bravery, this time he is fully responsible for the war against the Normandy region, under the pressure of the marshal of the principality, he can only say that the Falcon Army is naturally timid, and several times it was immediately withdrawn as soon as it was met, the army out of caution, adopted the strategy of slowly advancing, and crossed the border for 4 days, and I don't know what the Falcon Army looks like until now,

"The enemy didn't see it, you're still grinding here!" For the general's explanation, the Marquis of the Duchy Ushuaia's face turned pale angrily, and he said angrily, "You should know that the troops sent by the Duchy this time account for a quarter of the Duchy's troops, and the Grand Duke hopes to be able to rely on this battle to establish the hegemon of the northwest coast in one fell swoop, and you have only advanced 10 miles in one day, and now you have only occupied 8 border villages." Is this what you gave to the Grand Duke?"

However, the two did not know that at this moment, in the distance that they could not see, there was also a pair of eyes, carefully looking at the road in the distance from the telescope, and unlike the Marquis of Ushuaia's angry mood, this person's eyes were full of coldness,

This person is Cleveland, the commander of the Fifth Banner of the Southern Army, who is responsible for the defense of this area.

The Duchy of Dunkir and the Duchy of Romana jointly attacked the northwest of Normandy, and Statunko ordered the main force of the Southern Army to shrink the front, and with the core of the Irru Fortress, the battle line was divided into three areas along the outside of the Irru Fortress, Shersand Castle, Ferrolhao, and Poolburg, and the three main battle flag regiments were lined up along the line, and the cavalry flag regiment remained in Irru for use as a mobile force, of which the fifth flag commander Cleveland was responsible for the Sher Shar Castle in front of the Dunkel people,

The strength of the Fifth Banner Regiment in Cleveland was about 8,000 men, and the main force of the Dunkil people was 20,000.

But the Dunkels were advancing so slowly that it was not until the fourth day that Cleveland saw the belated arrival of the Dunkel army through the lookout glass.

"Order everyone to prepare!" Cleveland put down the lookout in his hand and gave an order in a low voice,

In the distance, a group of heavy cavalry of the Dunkirk army stopped 200 meters in front of the Scheer Castle, and 20,000 Dunkirk soldiers began to line up, with spears like a forest, and infantry shields densely lined up along the outside of the fort

With a long trumpet, the two infantry formations broke away from the large army and began to move forward, the speed of the advance was very slow, until they entered the range of 50 meters, and then began to speed up in great strides, and finally began to rush like crazy to the barrier where there was no one, and the army outside the castle began to move forward, apparently having confirmed the completion of the Shersha Castle, and the last to enter was the first to arrive armored cavalry "What a bunch of fools!"

Cleveland, who saw this scene from a distance, showed a sneer on the corner of his mouth,

His arms were slowly raised, and the cavalry behind him dragged a large number of branches to run on the wilderness, and the branches dragged up the dust in the high-speed running, covering the sky and rolling with the wind, like a sand storm at the end of the horizon "There is a situation!"

The Dunkil army, which had just entered the Sharsha Castle, quickly filled the castle and put on a posture of being ready for battle.

In the smoke and dust rising into the sky in the distance, a group of black-armored infantry slowly emerged from the dust and sand, heavy shields and spears, especially under the dust, the black armor of these mysterious armies brought people a cold and piercing solemnity, "This is the falcon army that defeated the Normans?"

At the critical moment, the Marquis of Ushuaia, the Marquis of the Duchy, simply gave an order directly, and the other party's pretense was mysterious, making him feel that something was wrong, but his words had not yet fallen, and countless red points of light had risen from behind the dust in the distance like meteors, "Mom." What's that?"

In the stunned eyes of everyone, a huge catapult burning with raging flames, in the sight of everyone, suddenly broke through the barrier of smoke and dust like a beast, with a whistling and long black smoke, and smashed violently on the wall of the castle, touch! The fire splashed everywhere, and the huge explosion that shook everyone's ears roared, and it became a ring of impact that collapsed a battlement that had been dry and cracked for many years, forming a ring of impact, so that the dozen or so Dunkel soldiers who were caught off guard turned into flame-burning people, and the terrible screams resounded through the city, that kind of tragedy, which made the Marquis of Ushuaia, the marshal of the principality from a high nobleman, sit on the ground in fright, "Attention, stone throwing!"

Before the frightened sound fell, countless red dots had turned into meteor-like falling catapults, boom, a fireball smashed on the arrow tower of the castle, an even more huge explosion resounded through the castle, the huge vibration made the foundation of the castle shake, a section of the city wall up to a hundred meters, there was a huge crack, and then collapsed, and the countless Dunkel soldiers on it were like submerged small black dots,

Hundreds of crude oil bombs buried in the arrow tower of the castle were ignited by the burst flames almost at the same time, and the huge power of the explosion made the stones inside the castle fly in all directions, and the stones of the solid city were also broken into several pieces by this huge power.

The soft plains were cracked by the explosion of the distance from the bottom of the castle wall, and then quickly gave rise to the great collapse of the city wall,

The walls were torn down like piles of building blocks, and the 20,000 Dunker troops ran wildly inside.

Countless soldiers jumped from the collapsed area, only to be smashed into pieces by huge stones, and even those who did not die were buried alive in the dust. "The whole army advances!"

Cleveland gave the order with a blank face, and in the dust, the black military formation showed hideous teeth, and countless clusters of arrows burst out of the dust like locusts! )
