……
What did you say!?
Lord of Eternal Night City, Calvin Kant, the Duke of Northland, stood up in disbelief and looked at the messenger in front of him.The water cup on the table fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Lord Duke, this is all I have seen with my own eyes!The latter's head was buried lower. The rebel king broke through the wall of the capital in just one day, and His Majesty the King could not escape. Now it is probably in danger!
How is this... possible?Calvin murmured, that's the capital Ah!
The bluestone city wall is five feet high, the guards of thousands of people, as well as stone throwers and snow powder. Without a team of 20,000 or 30,000 people, you can't even cross this line of defense.
And even if the fourth prince can gather so many people, he shouldn't have captured the capital Ah in one day!
They...their firearms are too powerful, and the voice of the messenger trembled slightly. I don't know if it was because of the weakness of physical strength caused by rushing overnight or being shocked by everything they witnessed. Not only can they fire continuously, but their power is also amazing. Not to mention the knights, even the King's Crazy Guard cannot stop them from moving forward. As long as they are next to each other, even if they are not dead, they will basically lose half their lives... In comparison, His Majesty's firearms are no different from fire sticks.
Calvin's mind was blank, and there was only one thought in his mind. It was over, everything was over.
More than a week ago, he received an order from the new king, asking him to send a force to support the capital. As the newly enthroned Duke of Northland, he naturally had to respond.
After some discussion, Calvin finally drew a team of 2,500 people from Matou Hoth, Snow Fox Lista and his family. After the snow melted, he set off for the king. Although it was expected that the arrival time was about half a month apart and the letter of help was requested, it was not too late to consider that the siege battles often lasted for several months.
Since spring plowing is about to begin, there are not many serfs in the team, and there are very few knights, most of them are mercenaries and free people. But no matter what, as long as the team is sent, it will inevitably be a crime of rebellion in the eyes of the rebel king. His good days will soon come to an end.
By the way, there is Itise!Calvin suddenly remembered his precious daughter. If it were her, maybe she could come up with some other way to save her.
Hurry up, go and call your eldest daughter to my room!He shouted to the guards beside him.
Soon, Itis, wearing a close-fitting casual outfit, walked into the study. She was wearing a training sword, her hair was tied up on the top of her head, and thin beads of sweat were secreted from the tip of her nose.
Obviously she was practicing sword skills as usual, with a hint of hesitation on her face. Didn’t I say that?Don't bother me when practicing swords.
This time it’s different, the family is about to encounter a disaster!Calvin eagerly retelled the message brought back by the messenger. What should we do now?
He looked at his daughter earnestly, hoping that she could give a solution. If pearls are abundant in the North, then Itis Kant is the brightest one.
She is not only beautiful but also has a very high talent, which makes other men look beautiful in politics and marching.
It can be said that Itis made an indelible contribution to the Kant family being able to climb from the throne of the earl to the current Duke of the North.
My daughter showed a little surprised when she heard that the Fourth Prince conquered the capital one day, and then quickly returned to peace. Now you know why I didn't agree to marry Tifeko at that time?
Calvin couldn't help but widen his eyes. Did you expect all this at that time?After Tifeco led his army to defeat Duke Ace, who was intending to rebel, he stayed in the North for a while.
Like most men, he also fell in love with the pearl of the North, but Itis did not immediately agree to the other party, but used an excuse to cleverly shirke the envoy sent by the other party.
At that time, I was quite puzzled and even blamed my daughter. You should know that marrying me will be the queen, which is something that many women dream of, and Kant's family can naturally sit more steadily in the Northland.
You said you would break the city in one day?That wasn't there, Itis untied his belt and let the long blue hair on his head tilt down. I just thought he wasn't the right person.
Not...suitable, Calvin couldn't help but moan in his heart. He was the ruler of Grayburg!
Even if it is short, it is a veritable king of a country!
Even such a person is not suitable. What kind of person do you want to marry?
However, the Duke did not say this. He had already made up his mind that if his daughter never married, he would pass the throne of Duke to Itis. He believed that compared to his two sons, the eldest daughter was the best heir to carry forward the family.
Back to this matter, Itis bent down and picked up the broken porcelain cup on the ground. The first thing you have to do is to recover the troops sent.
But they have been setting out for four days and don’t know which path they are taking, so it’s probably too late…
It's okay, she made the fragments into the shape of three cities. You send someone to Yougu Town first. If you set out now, you can arrive in the evening. You will take a boat to the capital tomorrow morning, so that you should arrive one day earlier than the army.No matter which way the army takes, it will eventually gather on this official road at the North Gate. As long as you search along it in the reverse direction, you can stop them outside the suburbs of the royal capital.
So that's it. Damn, I should have thought of this method. The Duke patted his head hard. It was all because the news came too suddenly. He couldn't come back to his senses for a moment. I'll write a letter now!No, just let the guards take the token!Come!
After the personal guard received the order and left, Itis continued to say slowly, Father, do you think we can block the attack of the Fourth Prince?
Calvin couldn't help but shivered. The outer wall of Eternal Night City was not as solid as that of the royal capital. I'm afraid it wouldn't last long in front of that kind of weapon like sky fire. I think... can't.
So it is far from enough to recall the army. She shrugged, don't forget that you became the duke by clinging to Tifeco. In Roland's eyes, I'm afraid there is no difference from the enemy. Even if he doesn't come now, he will always come in the future.Therefore, if we want the family to continue, we must do more and be more proactive.
What you mean is... Let me turn my head and be loyal to His Highness the Fourth Prince?Calvin hesitated, why should he believe me?
With sincerity, Itis whispered softly. After the result of this siege battle spread, most nobles would be timid. Since they could not join forces to resist, it would be better to admit defeat early.Of course, I probably have to show sincerity in my opinion, otherwise how could I stand out among the many nobles?
What kind of...sincerity?
Itis smiled, pulled out the training wooden sword with one hand, and before Calvin could react, he lightningly smashed two of the three pieces on the table into powder.
I think the Hoths and Lista are good gifts, what do you think, father?
