Imperial Crown

Chapter 314 The Woman Behind the Man

Just like the news Anthony received.

After just a few days of rest, Raven's troops have now left the Wall of Sigh and marched deeper into the Principality of Eivor.

Simon walked in the procession on his horse.

With the air force as a scout, Simon also temporarily rested and moved with the large force.

It is now mid-June, the sun is clear and scorching the earth, and the road is filled with scorched air.

Looking up, 10,000 eagle troops, 10,000 auxiliary soldiers, and nearly 20,000 serfs filled the road so much that there was no end in sight.

Marching has always been a hard job, standing against the sun and stepping on the hard road. Everyone's face is dusty, showing a dark texture.

Some auxiliary soldiers who lacked training in daily life would even get sunburned on their faces, leaving shocking patches of dead skin on their faces, so that wide-brimmed straw hats became the most popular equipment.

There are lush wheat fields on both sides of the road. The breeze blows and the wheat waves are like waves.

"Be careful!" Simon lightly whipped an auxiliary with his riding crop.

The napping guy almost pushed the car into the nearby farmland.

"Yes, Lord Simon!" The auxiliary soldier quickly cheered up and corrected his marching route.

There was no complaint against Simon in his words, but a bit of gratitude.

Because if Simon hadn't reminded him and pushed the car into the field, those civil servants who came out of the academy and were responsible for enforcing military discipline would probably have made his skin and flesh bruise.

Because Baron Raven ordered that no farmland be destroyed.

Now Simon has learned to look at the problem from the perspective of a lord and a military leader, and has a deeper understanding of Raven's orders.

Although Iron Birch County still belongs to the Principality of Eivor in name, it has actually fallen under the jurisdiction of the Eagle Army.

In two months, the autumn grain will mature, and a considerable part of the grain in this field will be used as Raven's army rations.

Compared to traveling thousands of miles to transport food from the Eagle, this is much more cost-effective.

Thinking of this, Simon's eyes began to wander again, and finally landed on a black carriage in front of the team.

The carriage was pulled by four horses and was as big as a mobile home.

Now Baron Raven is in this carriage.

This is also the most discussed topic in the military in recent days.

Because in the past, Baron Raven had always led by example and marched on horseback, but since he came out of the Wall of Sighs, he has never left the carriage.

Moreover, the people guarding the carriage said that they could always hear some strange noises, and sometimes the weapons on their bodies would float up while walking.

Everyone was discussing whether Raven was researching some novel magic.

Simon asked Eric and got only one answer:

"I don't know either."

Since there was no news from Eric, Simon knew that he would not be able to find the answer.

It's just that I can't help but think in my heart that the Baron never does anything meaningless.

What on earth was he studying in the carriage?

Shaking his head and burying this speculation in his heart, Simon took out the handkerchief in his arms and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

After dozens of washings, this handkerchief has lost the fragrance it had when it was first received, but it is still very soft.

This made Simon couldn't help but think of its owner and Jenny's smile.

"I don't know how she is doing."

Simon felt a little regretful. Maybe when he was sighing at the high wall, he should have written a letter to Jenny instead of just reporting that his family was safe.

"Speed ​​up the pace and go 3 kilometers further before you can set up camp and rest!" News came from the front.

Simon moved his body and looked at the setting sun.

What you can see are gorgeous flaming clouds.

At the same time, in Eagle City, Jenny was also staring at the red sun in the sky in a daze.

"Why, are you thinking about your Simon again?" Nancy's voice suddenly sounded.

Jenny jumped up all of a sudden and turned around quickly: "Miss, no, I..."

Seeing Jenny's blush turning into the sunset outside the window, Nancy couldn't help but smile:

"Think about what happened? I miss Raven too now."

Jenny nodded slightly, she knew that her young lady would never say anything against her will, and she would always practice it.

When Raven was still in Eagle City, Nancy always wore extremely gorgeous dresses that changed every day.

But since Raven led the army to the expedition, Nancy has changed her past style. She has never bought a new piece of clothing, and she usually wears simple clothes.

For example, right now, Nancy is wearing a light blue silk dress, her hair is tied back, and she is sipping her cherry.

Although she can't get rid of the innate delicate temperament in her every move, she also has a bit of the majesty of a matron.

Nancy said: "Okay, don't stand there in a daze, go get two cups, let's have a drink and celebrate."

During this period of time, Nancy heard a lot of rumors.

Some people said that Raven was leading the people from the five northwest counties to die, some said that Raven was bringing disaster to the Nord province, and some even cursed Raven to die outside!

But all of this disappeared with the collapse of the sighing wall, which made Nancy feel very proud.

"I already knew that Raven could take down the Wall of Sighs." Nancy clinked glasses with Jenny and sipped a sip of wine into her throat:

"My husband has always been a first-class hero on the mainland!"

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

Nancy's words were filled with pride that could not be concealed and did not need to be concealed.

With only 10,000 people, they achieved an achievement that no one in the entire empire could achieve in 400 years. This achievement is not too much to brag about!

But Jenny was a little absent-minded.

Seeing this, Nancy asked: "What's wrong? What's bothering you recently?"

Although the two were called master and servant, they got along almost like sisters in private. Jenny hesitated for a moment and said:

"Miss, I'm just a little worried. After all, Eivor is a principality..."

"You are just worrying about nothing. Simon will be fine." Nancy comforted Jenny, but she was also a little shaken.

She knew Raven and knew that her husband would never be satisfied with taking down the Wall of Sighs and would definitely march deep into Eivor.

Unlike the Nord Province, the Principality of Eivor has a more developed economy and many mages are active inside.

The most famous one is Quilly.

This third-level magician was not tolerated by the Mage Guild due to his radical experiments and defected from it five years ago.

During this period, he has been on the wanted list of the Mage Guild, with a head value of 5,000 gold coins.

But even with such a high reward, he can still live a high-profile and comfortable life, which is enough to show his ability.

Now Raven is the only magician in the Eagle Army.

Nancy has full confidence in Raven and will not lose to Quilly.

But after all, the opponent has more mages, the battlefield is so chaotic, and she is not with Raven. What if something happens...

Nancy put down the wine glass.

Jenny was a little panicked: "Sorry, Miss, I said the wrong thing."

"Isn't it normal to worry about your lover?" Nancy patted her hand generously: "Besides, you reminded me."

"Help me get the paper and pen."

Taking the paper and pen handed by Jenny, Nancy thought carefully and wrote on it.

Just like Nancy herself, her handwriting is beautiful and gorgeous, but with a stubborn and hard pen.

Soon, a letter was written.

This is for Earl Tyrone.

Nancy herself cannot leave Eagle City, and looking at the Nord Province, the only magician who has the ability and motivation to help Raven is Jon, a third-level magician supported by the Slater family.

As for the interests, Nancy is not good at analysis, so she did not add any conditions.

But Nancy believes that Earl Tyrone can seek his own share without harming the interests of the Griffith family.

Half an hour later, a hippogryph knight stationed in Eagle City flew into the sky.
