Lord of War

  The huge sudden movement broke the silence of Void City.

  A group of city defense forces pulled out from the city defense camp in the void city, and these forces flocked to the four city gates of the void city and the vicinity of the city center. The horse-rejecting fence carried by the army quickly blocked all the entrance and exit streets of the entire city center. At the same time, other teams flocked to other important neighborhoods to lay down lines of defense. In just about half an hour, the entire Void City was transformed into a tightly controlled military city under the arrangement of the city defense army.

   But even more surprising, but this is not the end.

  About half an hour later, two armies stepped in from outside the West City Gate.

  The residents of Void City know that there is a large-scale military camp outside the west gate of Void City. After several expansions and improvements, this barracks has now become another training barracks in Void City. It’s just that this barracks used to be garrisoned by steel-winged troops, but after the original Panda Town was converted into a military training base, the camp began to be guarded by the Thunder Lions, but recently I heard that a new army has arrived. , Called Jet Black Wing.

  At this moment, the two armies have a total of 6,000 people, and they lined up in a long dragon and entered the Void City.

  In an instant, there were as many as 11,000 people in the city defense army in Void City.

  For a huge city that can accommodate 100,000 people, the number of troops is just enough to defend the entire city.

  It’s just that the residents of Void City didn’t know why this happened suddenly, and some people were panicked for a while.

  But soon, news began to come from the other side of the city, and the entire Void City residents immediately became excited again after hearing the news.

  Because their most respected lord, Sean Connery was assassinated by an assassin tonight!

  Everyone is angry.

  At this moment, Domingo Hastings is standing in front of a window on the second floor of the embassy. Quietly looking at the suddenly brightly lit Void City, his face looked extremely yin and heavy. And standing beside him were the deputy head of Tyler and his illegitimate son, Thain Holm, but at this time the two seemed to feel Domingo’s strange mood, and the two looked at each other, both. Don't dare to speak to break the silence at this moment.

  I don’t know how long it took, Domingo finally let out a suffocating breath and snorted heavily, "Did you see it? Taylor."

   "I saw it." Taylor nodded.

   "Let’s not talk about the two armies that entered the city only later, are they just this city defense army, or a mob?".

  Taylor shook his head. Shen Sheng said: "Within half an hour, all the main roads of a city were guarded, and the defense and monitoring were completed. Even if they are very familiar with the city, the speed of action still shows that the quality of this army is very high. . For this alone, they cannot be regarded as a mob."

   "How does the Second Cavalry Regiment compare with this city defense army?"

   "Under your wise leadership, you are better than this city defense army." Taylor thought for a while. Opened his mouth and said.

at this point. Tyler is indeed not wrong.

There are a total of six regiments composed of pure cavalry in the Kingdom of Darbion. Except for the Royal Cavalry Regiment, which belongs to the cavalry regiment directly under King Darbion, the other five cavalry regiments are named one, two, three, four, and five. Number. However, the First Cavalry Regiment has been given a duli designation, which is the Red Se Cross Cavalry Regiment, which is now well-known in the Southern Continent. This is a true Jing sharp unit whose combat effectiveness far exceeds the other four cavalry regiments.

  But in the remaining four cavalry regiments. The Second Cavalry Regiment also maintained a considerable distance from the other three cavalry regiments, at least the level of the quasi-fourth army.

  In this regard, if the 2nd Cavalry Regiment and the Void City Defense Force start a battle, then the 2nd Cavalry Regiment must be victorious. And all this changed. It was after Domingo Hastings became the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment that there was such a significant change, so what Taylor said at this time was not flattering.

  "So, how does my private army compare with this city defense army?" However, Domingo was obviously not happy at all, and he asked another question.

  This time, Taylor was a little surprised.

  The Hastings family has a private army of up to 30,000. This is something that many nobles know. Although the Hastings family is only an earl's family, it is very rare that the resources of the Tingqi are relatively rich, and it is also one of the few trade transit stations on the southern side of the Darbyang Kingdom, and the transportation extends in all directions. It was the prosperity of the territory to a large extent that it was precisely because of this that Domingo could afford such a private army of 30,000 infantry.

  Of course, the annual expenditure of this army accounts for three-quarters of the annual income of the entire territory.

  So don't look at the Hastings family often can afford various banquets, but in fact, the Hastings family is not a very wealthy nobleman.

  Slightly silent for a moment, Taylor still said, "Slightly insufficient."

  This evaluation is very pertinent.

  Domingo sighed softly.

  In fact, as an excellent general, how could Domingo fail to see the gap between the private army in his territory and the Nether City defense army? Although this gap is indeed small enough to be ignored, for Domingo, who is extremely competitive, this gap has become a flaw that cannot be ignored. Why can a unit that I have seen before, which is still very lazy, become so sharp in a critical moment?

  Domingo can’t understand.

  It’s just that, if he knew that the predecessor of the city defense army in Void City was a mercenary group, then it would not be difficult for him to understand.

   "I finally understand why Master Gerson is so hostile to this lord." Domingo said softly.

  Hearing this, both Taylor and Thain were taken aback.

   Domingo’s evaluation of Sean is tantamount to admitting that he is inferior to Sean. If they were ordinary people, then Tyler and Thain would certainly not be surprised, but they are the closest people around Domingo. Of course, they know very well what kind of person Domingo is, so I heard The arrogant Domingo admits that he is inferior to Sean. This is something that shocked the two of them.

  You must know that even in the Kingdom of Darbion, you can make Domingo admit that he is inferior. No more than ten people!

   "However, after tonight, there will be no more Sean Connery."

Domingo obviously has great confidence in the assassin he sent out. In fact, since contacting him, the mission entrusted to the other party has not failed once, even if he was once asked to assassinate a half-footed man who stepped into the sanctuary. The strong. With such a case reference analysis, Domingo does not believe that there is a possibility of failure in the face of Sean, who is less than the golden realm.

  Almost when Domingo’s words fell, the door of the room was opened by a young man.

  Domingo turned to face the young man, smiled and said, "The remaining part..."

   Before Domingo finished speaking, the young man he had sent to assassinate Sean took out a purse from his body and threw it in front of Domingo. This scene made Domingo slightly startled. It took a moment to react, and Domingo's face already showed a touch of shock: "How could it be possible to fail!?"

The young man, that is, the Creed Assassin from the Assassin Alliance immediately snorted, but his eyes were a little bit more dissatisfied: "The target is seriously inconsistent with the information you gave.... This time there is nothing but me. The other six Yin Shadow Assassins also tried to assassinate the target. As a result, the six Yin Shadow Assassins killed five people on the spot. The remaining one was also injured and fled. I took advantage of the chaos and made a move. It was also unsuccessful."

   "This..." Domingo's face showed unbelievable se. "How can this be?"

  "Are you suspicious of me?" The young man stared at Domingo with yin in his eyes.

   "Your Excellency has misunderstood." At this time, it was Thain who interrupted, "My lord only meant to express surprise at the result, not to doubt you."

The young man snorted coldly, but still opened his mouth and said: "For the sake of our good cooperation in the past, I will tell you an extra piece of news. Although I don't know who sent the six Yin Shadow Assassins. But. The other party must have already figured out a way out, because I saw the other party sneak into this embassy, ​​and there are clues left along the way, as long as someone who wants to track it down, I will find it here soon."

  Hearing this young man's words, the faces of Domingo, Thain and Taylor changed drastically.

They really want to assassinate Sean, but as long as there is no evidence, they will definitely not be the first suspect. After all, Domingo used reverse thinking at the beginning. Under the eyes of the Peace Association, they have absolutely enough reasons. It can prove that he has no motive to kill. But the situation is different now. If the Yin Shadow Assassin who failed to assassinate Shaun really hides in this lord's mansion, then even if there is no evidence, it will be difficult to escape the relationship.

   "You guys do it for yourself." The young man said in a deep voice, then turned around and was about to leave.

   "Wait, you can't go now." Domingo said suddenly, "If you go now, there will be one less **** accompanying me, and it will be harder for me to clear the suspicion by then."

"I don't leave, you die faster." The young man sneered. "I had seen the lord, if I had killed him at that time, it would be nice to say, but the problem is that I failed the assassination. If I were to be killed here. If you find out, then you will really get the money and you will not even have the chance to get rid of the suspicion."

   Hearing the young man’s words, Domingo was a little surprised: "How... could it become like this..."

  Originally according to the plan, Sean should be a dead man, so even if someone suspects them, there will never be any evidence. But now, not only is Sean not dead, but a third party has also gotten in. Of course, Domingo also knows that, in fact, regardless of whether the plan is finally implemented, he will become a scapegoat for the third party. Those six yin shadows The assassin can prove this very well.

  At this moment, Domingo really has a painful illusion of shooting himself in the foot.

   "Father, they have surrounded us here."

After the young man left, Thain immediately walked to the window. Sure enough, he saw a group of heavy infantry wearing black heavy armor, obviously different from the city defense army, beginning to surround the embassy. Archers with long bows are constantly climbing to nearby roofs. At this time, I am afraid that even a bird can't fly out. (To be continued...)

  Ps: Oh oh oh, I love you guys! ! The Great God's Light suddenly recovered two more!
