Chapter 68: The Expedition
"You said you caught umur!" The older strong man on the side was dressed in crimson robes, burly and strong, and his mouth was full of great momentum, and he was the famous Duke of Brenus in the kingdom!
"Back to the Duke, last night Umr hid in the guards of the Marquis of Ike, and wanted to forcibly break through, but was intercepted by the elite of the city guards, so he exposed his strength and wanted to forcibly break through, and was finally caught by the deputy head of the Lion Knights. Leo replied respectfully.
Lion Knights!
This remark once again made many nobles slightly shocked, and they did not expect that King Ulrik would hand over such an important force to the new Wind Patrol, and it seems that this new Wind Patrol is indeed as rumored to have won the trust of His Majesty the King.
And a small number of big lords were also shocked, they had long known that King Ulrik had lent the lion order to Leo, but they didn't expect that even the existence of the level of deputy head of the Lion Knights, Leo could command it, it was an absolute high-level Lion Knights, even in the kingdom, they all had a good status, and it was unrealistic to want to command each other with a single lion leader.
"Okay, Marquis Ike's matter, please keep the news and don't spread it," King Ulrik said in a deep voice, of course, with so many people present, it is difficult to completely keep the news, but it is somewhat useful, at least it has to delay the time, and many nobles have the same face as usual, but it is because King Ulrique's next sentence changed color.
"This time, the Raven Realm Kingdom dares to provoke the kingdom, and this king has decided to personally form a legion to deal with the provocation of the Raven Realm Kingdom!" King Ulrik said in a high-spirited manner, and the whole person seemed to exude awe-inspiring battle intent!
King Ulrique himself on the expedition?
Many nobles changed color, and the king's decision was really unexpected by many people, and some big nobles opened their mouths and seemed to want to advise.
"Needless to say, since I decided to go on an expedition, I naturally thought it through," King Ulrik said with a faint wave of his hand, and his tone was irrefutable, "Ten years ago, the raid of the Raven Kingdom made me remember it very well.
And not long ago, there was also an accident in Eagle Claw Fort, in order not to have an accident, I had to go out in person, the logistics officer was already preparing food and grass, all the lords near Lion Lake City had to accept the summons, if the Crow Realm Kingdom was because of other things, if they really had ideas about Eagle Claw Castle or even other territories of the kingdom, I would definitely not let them have the slightest chance of success!"
Ulrik's voice echoed in the main hall, and many of the great nobles saw this scene, and they didn't say much, the kingdom of the Lion Realm gave the lords a lot of power, and the king could not govern many places, but their influence on the king was also limited, and King Ulrik was determined to go out in person, and they gave advice, and that's it.
......
The central content of the Kingdom Council, from Leo's speculation about the Marquis of Ike, was transformed into King Ulrique's formation of a legion to go on an expedition, which was really unexpected by Leo, so that he had prepared for a long time, and he did not use much of it.
However, it is not a complete waste of time, at least the meeting still has a short time for him to sort out the events of Marquis Ike, and his performance can also be described as excellent, many nobles have a fairly intuitive impression of this patrol envoy who has shown his talents and held great power.
In this way, at least in the future, seeing these big nobles again, it will not be like the Marquis of Ike last night, and it will even take a few seconds to confirm Leo's identity in an uncertain tone, it will be too shameless, not only Marquis Ike, but also himself.
"Doesn't the Lion Knight need to go on an expedition with the kingdom?" Leo asked Frank beside him, he was also a little surprised to see that the other party didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, as we all know, the Lion Knights are called the thugs of His Majesty King Ulrique, not to mention this, even if it is the Kingdom of the Raven Realm, if Gregory IV leads the army to the battle, the Dragon Knights will inevitably accompany him.
Why did this Frank, as well as a few lion knights around him, not perform half a point, and even passed by the lion knight auditorium, he was still very calm.
"My lord doesn't know," Frank was stunned for a moment when he heard Leo say, and immediately realized something, and said with a wry smile, "Unlike the Dragon Knights, the Dragon Knights will form an independent army and follow the lord's side, but they will not be integrated into the lord's army.
When they see the armies of those lords encountering battles, they will choose to help or not depending on the situation, and the Lion Knights are directly integrated into the army of several nobles recognized by the Lion Knights, and the Lion Knights who stay in the Lion Knights are only part of the strength, these people will only stay in the Lion Knights unless they plan to serve which nobles, of course, the war is naturally not involved. ”
When Leo heard this, he also knew something, this was something he didn't know before, there was such a big difference between the two knights, but for a young man like Leo from the new era, it seemed that the lion knights had a better approach.
After all, forming an army alone must lack a lot of cooperation with the lords, and it is also a rather unstable factor, but being incorporated into the army will greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the entire legion, which is a reasonable approach.
Of course, there was no need to think so much about him as a patrol envoy, Leo shook his head slightly, and then he didn't think about it anymore.
"My lord, there's a guy from the Ike family who has recruited you," said Brown in a hurry, with a little joy.
Recruited?
Leo was slightly happy, but that was it, but Brown's next words made him even more happy, "That person is a member of the Elders' Council of the Ike family, but he is responsible for helping the Griffin Knights enter the city.
However, he has provided us with some information that seems to be helpful in finding the rebels of the Serpent Cult. ”
Hearing this, Leo was naturally surprised, and now he had cracked most of the strongholds of the Griffin Knights, but he still hadn't made much progress in the snake cult, and he never thought that this Brown would bring him such a big piece of good news.
"Okay, let's ...... it" Leo was overjoyed, and also subconsciously said, but at this time, another voice came, "Count Leo, Count Leo go slowly." ”
Leo frowned slightly, a familiar voice, and immediately realized the owner of the voice, with a little smile on his face, he turned around and smiled, "Mr. Hut, why are you?"
