Chapter Seventy Five
At this moment, the whole Watt Fortress was full of joy, but the two leaders of Ferrara and Fedo were sad. The battle in the northwest revealed all their daily corruption of military supplies by Rick. A few days ago, because of the siege of Rayantal's army, Ruben didn't dare to do anything to them in order to stabilize the army, but now the enemy was beaten away. The two really didn't know whether they should be happy or unhappy.
Once Luoyantal broke through the city, they were all finished. I heard that the murderer never left prisoners. I have accumulated so many properties, all of which belonged to the prairie demon, I am afraid that the wife and concubine in the family will be cheaper for others.
At this moment the siege was lifted, I'm afraid it will be time to settle the account after Autumn.
That defensive fee is mostly a rough character, but Ferrara is a powerful character. When the subordinates reported that Lord Duke agreed to go to the banquet, the two men felt a little settled.
Reuben was not afraid. He was defeated in the Northwest. He was not a corps leader for a few days. It was not his turn to settle accounts after Autumn, but the new Duke Tulip made them a little uneasy. Ferrara is a Viscount after all, he has a little background, and he knows a little bit about the situation of the Lord Tulip. I heard that this young duke was also a well-known when he was in the imperial capital, and he liked the enjoyment of beautiful wine, singing and dancing, so he was considered a fellow man. If you want to do what you like, you might not really kill yourself selflessly, right?
Ferrara thought a bit more in his heart. Since the Lord Duke is a special envoy appointed by his Majesty, he can basically be regarded as the first person in the Northwest. As long as he is drawn in, the charge of defeat will be pushed on. Ruben's reckless man, no matter how the imperial capital is pressed, things can't turn things around.
Besides, the imperial capital would never sit back and watch his death. After all, millions of gold coins are earned every year! The one in the imperial capital alone took half of it! The problem now is the young Duke. Unexpectedly, he would have overwhelmed Royantal when he came, Ferrara was still worried that he might be a powerful character at first. But when he heard that he agreed to go to the banquet, the heart that was originally suspended was finally let go. People from the Tulip family are naturally not surprised to win the battle. As long as he likes those tunes, he is not afraid of no breakthrough!
The two had a discussion, but they didn't know what to use to impress the Lord Duke. There is no shortage of money. Lord Duke has his own territory. I just heard that this one was a wind liu seed when he was in the imperial capital, and he seemed to be working on women. Ferrara immediately said something to Fedo, Fedo felt a pain on his face, but then Ferrara's eyes widened, and there was an irritation in his eyes, and Fedo immediately softened. If I can't pass this level, my life is gone, what good is there in keeping that baby tight? And depending on the situation, if the matter reaches the point of irreversibility, the imperial capital will naturally not sacrifice when he loses his to protect his commander. Ferrara is a viscount noble and has a certain background behind him, so he will be sacrificed at that time. Most of his pawns are himself.
At this time, he couldn't help but refuse to agree.
In the evening, in a noble manor in Watt Fortress, a grand banquet to celebrate the victory was held.
After the fall of the Northwest and the escape of the nobles from various places, many people finally fled to the Watt Fortress with their family belongings. Some people ran to the hinterland of the empire from here, some people ran slowly, and they were trapped here. At this moment The danger is lifted, and such a dinner party is naturally indispensable for these decent people to attend.
Ferrara also spent a lot of thought in preparing for this dinner. Although it was in wartime, when he fled, the people of Trierburg were naturally ignored, but his family's belongings were loaded with more than a dozen carriages. Most of the other nobles were like this, some even brought along any band chef in the fleeing of their families. After some preparation, everything will be available.
On the lawn of this manor, among the wonderful serenades, people with big faces dressed in pink and ink shuttled among them, and many women are even more gorgeous. I heard that the young Duke is coming to participate, and I heard that the Duke has not yet married Where's my wife! This is definitely good news! Among those wealthy northwestern families, anyone who has a beautiful daughter in the family can't wait to dress up as a princess. If there is no daughter in the family, a niece who is far away will immediately recognize her as a daughter and bring her. As for those who didn't even have a niece, they had no choice but to sigh.
For a while, the lawn was colorful, but the young aristocrats around who were interested in hunting were secretly upset. Such a grand gathering tonight has never been seen since the war in the northwest. These long-suffering young Huahua students are waiting to have a good time tonight. They just saw the beautiful women in the garden and went up to have a conversation, but they didn’t. A person who is willing to care about himself, craned his neck and looked at the door. Even the secret lovers who had some relationship with him on weekdays all regarded themselves as flies, and the expression on his face wished to shoot himself to the city with a palm. Go outside.
Ferrara and Fedo stood at the gate of the garden, also feeling uneasy, holding a wine glass in their hands and smiling bitterly at each other. Success or failure will be the result tonight. Ferrara also took a special look at the woods behind, there was a secret weapon they prepared!
Suddenly, the waiter in the distance said loudly: "The Lord Duke is here!"
The garden was immediately panicked, everyone lined up to greet at the door, and the young girls also quarreled a few words about some more advantageous position.
He only heard the sound of neat "Owl" leather boots, and then a group of soldiers in the uniforms of the Central Cavalry Regiment walked into the garden with a murderous look on the head of the officer, and his cold eyes swept inadvertently. , Then stood on one side, ignoring everyone's surprised eyes, and whispered: "Lined up!"
A team of soldiers immediately stood on both sides, and a few rude soldiers pushed them aside, regardless of the screams of the noble ladies. After hearing the sound of leather boots, the referendum master walked in slowly.
Everyone was immediately dumbfounded. The Lord Duke was dressed in a uniform, and even carried a huge saber under his waist. The leather armor on his body didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and there was still a faint blood stain on it.
At this moment, everyone in the audience is dressed in aristocratic dresses. How can he dress up for the banquet? Ferrara can only bite the bullet and step forward to some politeness.
Roddy didn't say much, just deal with a few words at will, as they slowly walked into the court. Behind him, the guard captain took four soldiers like tigers and wolves without leaving. When the nobles who saw Lord Duke attend a banquet, they were all surrounded like flies. They thought about the flattery for a long time. Without saying anything, he was pushed a metre away by those soldiers. Those soldiers, no matter what the rich and wealthy businessman or the baron of the viscount, are the cowardly noble ladies, they are also merciless.
Everyone had no choice but to stand far away and talk. For a moment, "The adults are wise and martial, the pillar of the empire!" "The adults are well-deserved, and they are the role models of the empire's army." "The adults are triumphant, and the future will surely be a great success!" These words and phrases that have been brewing for a long time were all exported. It's just that flattery is often mixed with the screams of "Oh, oh," when they were driven away by those soldiers, which is a bit nondescript.
Everyone had learned to behave and didn't dare to rush to Roddy again, but those who were prepared to pretend to be a sincere and sincere speech in front of the Lord Duke, at this moment, shouted out a few meters away, which is a bit more realistic. It's not a taste, even the few tears of excitement that had been brewed, I don't know whether they should be squeezed out at this moment-so far apart, can adults see them?
Ferrara's complexion was stiff, and she could only bite the bullet and lead Roddy to a seat next to the yard and sit down.
I have to admire the skill of these nobles. At this moment, there is a lack of supplies in the Watt Fortress, but they have made this banquet very impressive. Although the exquisite food is not available for a while, they still ingeniously set up a huge oven in the middle of the yard with an iron fork on it. Strung a golden lamb that has been handcuffed.
Under the fire, the sound of the barbecue floated over.
Several subordinates swiftly handed over a few pieces of meat from the leg of lamb. Ferrara immediately pushed up a smile and said, "Master Duke, this is the specialty roasted lamb of the Great Moon Kingdom. It is managed by a famous chef in the Northwest, but it is a wonderful feature here. Presumably the adults have never tried it in the Imperial Capital..."
Roddy nodded, took a small sterling silver table knife handed by a waiter next to him, cut a few times on the lamb, showing an impatient look on his face, and deliberately loudly angrily said: "Damn! This knife is unhappy. !" Hula pulled out the one-meter-long saber under his waist, swiped a few times and chopped the lamb leg and mutton in front of him into several pieces. Only then did he smile on his face and slapped a bright saber. Put it on the high-grade wood table worth twenty gold coins...
Everyone didn't cry or laugh, they just looked at the young Duke dumbfounded. After a while, a clever fellow suddenly yelled: "My lord is happy and does not lose his general style!" As soon as this sentence came out, it immediately reminded everyone, and for a while, there was a wave of flattery. In his heart, he hates himself for being slow to see the opportunity, and being preempted by others, is particularly hard to please.
Only then did Rody smile slightly, slowly raising his wine glass to toast frequently, and after winking, the soldiers next to him also pushed aside.
The atmosphere finally became harmonious. Several nobles courageously stepped forward, and did not see those soldiers coming up to stop them, and the people behind immediately surrounded them. Shake hands, hug, and salute for a while. Roddy dealt with it lukewarmly, just saying some polite words, and someone toasting was always there, but he didn't mention the war in the Northwest. Ferrara breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally from a nobleman and had also been in the imperial capital. He talked with Roddy about some scenic anecdotes in the imperial capital, as well as the romance among the nobles. When talking about the brutality and ferocity of the Great Moon Kingdom, the surrounding nobles all responded, and immediately praised the Lord Duke for using his soldiers like a god, and defeated the demon king of the grassland in the first battle. Speaking of Royantal's burning, killing and looting in the northwest. Many nobles were even more excited with tears, and they were grateful to Roddy for saving them in the fire and water. When it comes to the cholera brought by the Great Moon Kingdom to the Northwest, these nobles all swear and complain about their property losses during the war.
Roddy smiled slightly, and comforted everyone. Everyone protects the northwest for the empire. The more you lose, the more loyal to the empire. Everyone immediately complied, wishing to exaggerate their losses tenfold to show their loyalty to the empire.
When a nobleman said loudly that he was defeated, how did he bravely organize the servants of the family to take up swords and fight the enemy to the death. If he fought desperately to the last person, if he was unyielding in the face of a strong enemy, Roddy sneered. , Slowly said: "Very good, very good."
As soon as this word came out, the whole audience was overwhelmed, and they all complained about how they fought battles against powerful enemies, how strong and unyielding after being defeated, and how battles and empires co-existed and died after "retreating" to Watt Fortress, just a few times. Asking to go out of the city to meet a powerful enemy was restricted by Ruben's order to stick to it. If there was no order to stick to, he would have rushed out with his men long ago to serve the country with death.
Roddy listened one by one, but from time to time he smiled and said, "Very good. After everyone finally couldn't make up new words, and the voice gradually faded, Roddy slowly said: "Your loyalty, I have enough. To understanding. Everyone is dedicated to serving the country, and I admire this heart greatly! However, although the enemy is retreating now, there is still room for your heart to serve the country! Today I will lead the army to counterattack Luoyan Thar! Since you have the heart to kill the enemy, I will definitely give you a chance! Well, for this counterattack, it's better to select from among you to join the vanguard team. Those who just wanted to fight can sign up for the banquet at the defense mansion tomorrow! I am sure to satisfy your determination to kill the enemy! "
As soon as this was said, the whole audience was silent. Roddy glanced coldly, and said displeased: "What's the matter? Is your loyalty only in your mouth?"
Ferrara was sweating profusely, winked at Fedo, and then smiled bitterly: "My lord, today is a celebration dinner. As for the killing of the enemy, it is better to talk about it another day. I believe you are all faithful. People, as long as the adults give an order at that time, we will die!"
Everyone responded one after another, but this voice sounded compared with the passionate sentiment in front of it, but it was a bit lacking in confidence.
Roddy didn't say anything anymore, and then switched off the topic, and only asked about the customs of the Northwest at will. This eased the atmosphere.
At this time, Fei Duo smiled like a flower, snatched it in front of Roddy, and whispered: "My lord, in this courtyard, the forest behind is quite beautiful. The trees in the garden are The high-quality red-leaf maple trees brought from the south wind are rare in this northwest! Adults may wish to go and watch them."
"Oh?" Roddy frowned, and then followed Fedo to the woods behind.
As soon as he walked to the edge of the woods, a figure suddenly came out of the woods, and in a hurry he ran into Roddy's arms. Only smelling a fragrant breeze, Roddy subconsciously stretched out his hand, his hand was soft, and a soft voice was heard in his ears: "Oh"
There was obviously a bit of pain in the voice, and looking again, a young woman had fallen into Roddy's arms. A pair of autumn eyes looked at Roddy, a delicate arm hooked Roddy's neck naturally. Her mouth was breathless, and her face was a little bit shy and panic.
"My lord, I accidentally smashed my lord... I..." At this point, a neat row of jade-like teeth was lightly exposed, and he bit his lip lightly. There was a panic on his face, just a pair of eyes. There was a somewhat intriguing look.
"Who are you?" Roddy let go of her immediately.
"My lord, I am...oh..." The woman just stood up, but her feet were soft, and fell into Roddy's arms. Roddy flushed: "What's the matter?"
"Foot... the foot seems to be twisted." The woman gently leaned on Roddy's chest, her voice extremely charming.
Roddy frowned, and then looked back and winked at the captain behind him: "This lady has twisted her ankle, you can help her down!"
With an order, two sturdy soldiers strode up, showing no mercy, and pulled the woman out of Roddy's arms one by one, and then pulled the left hand and the right hand, regardless of the woman’s Yelled, and dragged on.
"What else do you have prepared?" Roddy gave Ferrara and Fedo a cold look. They were already sweating profusely and their faces were pale.
Roddy suddenly smiled and lowered his voice: "I understand the hospitality of both of you! But do you know why I am unhappy?"
"Hmph." Roddy didn't wait for them to answer, and smiled: "At this moment, the war is just around the corner, so... what will it look like! If I take the lead in having fun, how can I lead soldiers? How to fight? The kindness of the two, I understand , It’s just that the next time you do this, you have to look at the time and occasion. Some things should not be so obvious that so many people can see them. Do you understand?"
Ferrara breathed a sigh of relief immediately, and the soul that had frightened away finally possessed her body. She wiped her sweat quickly and smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, the subordinates did it too recklessly! Your lord, please forgive me!"
Roddy smiled slightly, then said seriously: "I'm here to see you tonight, because I have other things to do."
"My lord, please!" Seeing that things turned around, Ferrara nodded and bowed.
"Okay." Roddy pretended to indulge, and said lightly: "Let's find a place to speak slowly!"
`
Just as the Watt Fortress was celebrating the victory in the whole city, Luo Yantar, who retreated to the important town of Mudan, acted in front of the generals and personally cut the six captains of the scouts into seven or eight pieces.
Luo Yantar was really sad. He had lost nearly 40,000 infantry in the first battle without considering the loss of the siege. For him, the infantry was much more important than the cavalry. The prairie has never lacked cavalry, as long as he orders, 100,000 men of the prairie can immediately get on their horses and become brave knights. These alien races who grow on horsebacks are born to be excellent riders and have used machetes since childhood. But they all have a fatal weakness-leaving the horse, these warriors in the grassland seem to be unable to fight!
Luo Yantal spent a year, with the help of Roland's secret envoy, barely trained so many tens of thousands of infantry. As a result, seeing victory is in sight, suddenly an enemy brigade of cavalry emerged from behind! And afterwards, according to the return, it turned out to be the Central Cavalry Corps, the elite of the imperial crime! What's more amazing is that the opponent's commander is actually the Duke of Tulip!
On the mainland, who doesn't know the three words "tulip"? It was the "Thunder God's Whip" under the Tulip banner that conquered their nation with iron and blood! For the aliens on the grassland, the three words "tulip" are not only a shame, but also a nightmare!
In this battle, Luo Yantar lost 40,000 people! Twenty thousand of them were lost during the siege, that's all. But when the empire's tulip banner arrived, his army was defeated. After being smashed all the way to the front by the opponent, the infantry lost tens of thousands of people in the battle, of which only a few thousand were directly killed by the charge of Thor's Whip, and most of the rest were trampled to death in the defeat! How can this make Luo Yantar not angry?
Even more annoying is the special envoy of Roland mainland! Seeing his defeat, he left without saying a word. The knights he brought with him close to ten thousand, unexpectedly ran away silently! Seeing that they were defeated like a mountain, they looked like they had nothing to do with them!
But Luo Yantal didn't dare to turn his face with the other party. He deeply knew the strength of that Roland mainland envoy. If he drew a sword against him, then he would probably die! Although that guy has never seen anyone do it since he came, he often inadvertently exudes a breath, but Luo Yantar, who has been accustomed to dealing with wolves on the grassland since childhood, is deeply jealous!
Rayantal has fought a battle with the empire for so long, and has seen many so-called high-ranking warriors in the empire, but no one has ever brought this kind of deep vigilance to Rayantal.
When he retreated back to the town of Mudan, Luo Yantal was furious and once drew his sword against the opponent, but the special envoy of the Roland mainland just gave himself a cold look. That indifferent look made Luo Yan unexpectedly. Taer felt a chill...
It was an absolutely contemptuous look. From that look, it was full of ridicule and disdain at him. That kind of look is like a lion watching an ant with its teeth and claws...
In the dark night, in a barracks in the important town of Mudan, he put down his pen in one hand and rolled up a small creed in front of him. Then he grabbed the eagle on an iron frame in the window, and gently stuffed the scroll into the eagle. In a small metal ring tied to his leg, and then let go of it lightly, Lao Ying flapped his wings and flew out of the window.
"The tulip banner reappears... things have really become more complicated..." The man sighed slightly, his eyes flashed with meaningful eyes on his veiled face-
