Lord of War

  The southern theater became the first theater of war to be quelled. Whether it was in the Kingdom of Darbion or the Principality of Lane, it was considered a blockbuster.

  It is reported that after hearing the news, it was not only the nobles of the Principality of Lane in the Northwestern War Zone who threw away the wine glass, but even the one in the Royal Palace of the Kingdom of Darbion broke a lot of things. Of course, the most angry and frightened are the nobles who survived in the southern region, such as the two dukes Ashan Nugus and Jen Howard. The reason for their anger is that they can think with their toes. I know that the reason why the Southern Theater was defeated so quickly must be because Hela betrayed them, because they both knew very well that Hela was not dead at all, but was taken away by Sean Connery. .

  As for the reason for their fear, it is almost the same as the reason for anger.

Hela must not be able to endure torture, so he revealed all the secrets to the other party. This time, all the layout of the entire southern battlefield was planned by Hela. The weight of the secrets she vomited is so much. This is simply acceptable. Something you want to know.

But when they really wanted to take over and re-modify, they found that they had no way of starting, because they didn't know what Hella's idea was in the beginning, and what the meaning or pitfalls of her arrangements were. . As a result, the two dukes began to have discord with each other, and in the end the two sides finally parted ways completely. This moment is also equivalent to officially announcing the demise of the Nugus family, which was once infinitely brilliant and even capable of clamoring with the Boulder family.

  After all, the main force on the front line fighting against Pandaling is almost all the active force of the Nugus family faction.

  However, on the southern side of the theater, there was one person who didn't panic at all.

  Prince Cazes Hodgedi.

  He also has 30,000 troops under his command, as well as a fierce army-level Scarlet Knights.

  Although the size of this knight group is only a thousand people, if it is used well, its combat power will not be weaker than a heavy cavalry group with a scale of 10,000 people.

Of course, the most important point is that in the entire southern theater defense line set up by Hella himself, the prince has not participated from the beginning to the end, so his army not only maintains a perfect scale, but even its combat effectiveness level is not at all. decline. Even because he did not participate in the layout of Hela, no one knows how the prince’s specific defense forces are arranged. If he just guards his own territory and wants to eliminate the prince, it will be a real thing. storm.

According to the general commander’s approach, he would definitely choose to avoid the territory commanded by the prince. At most, he would be on guard. At least he would not charge head-on. After all, the entire southern theater has been completely settled and ended the war. This point of resistance is already at a negligible level.

  But Sean really couldn’t ignore the prince.

  Like Ashan Nugus and Jerne Howard, two nobles of the southern faction, Sean may be able to ignore them for the time being. Because at present, the Duke of Jerne Howard, after knowing the near-occupied situation of the Southern Theater, this guy directly led people to the camp of the Southeast Theater, and now he is facing the Boulder family like a mad dog. People bite; As for the Duke of Asan Nugus, Sean wants to completely defeat or even live the Duke, which is a matter of minutes. He only needs to let Rina take the Scarlet Knights to run for a while. Just a trip.

  So it is not so much to ignore it, as it is no longer worthy of Sean's attention.

  Anyway, once he swung his army eastward, the confrontation with Jen Howard would be a matter of time. On the contrary, Sean hoped that this old guy would not be killed by Asuna first.

  Only Prince Kazes Hodgedi, Sean must solve it anyway.

  And still take the initiative to solve.

  If he doesn’t want to die.

  Sean squeezed the dead bones in his hand. This epic weapon brought him great benefits. The most important thing is that this weapon can become stronger as his strength increases. Although he is still limited to the upper silver and has not broken through, he believes that once he breaks through to the lower gold, the death bone should get a strong increase in genital xing. This is the point that Sean has been very fond of the death bone so far. s reason.

  Because at this stage, it is really difficult to have another weapon that can surpass the dead bone in xing ability.

   However, it is precisely because of the superiority of the dead bones that Sean will cause himself an annoyance.

  He must cut off the blood of Prince Kazes Hodgedi, this is an agreement between him and Romeo, otherwise his soul will be taken away by the demon lord Kanternus. After all, this is not a game, but a real world. All the rules and tasks can no longer be explained by just the words "mission failure". Once almost all tasks fail, the cost is death.

  So now that the war in the southern theater is basically settled, Sean held the first post-war plenary meeting after letting everyone rest for a while.

There were a lot of people participating in the meeting this time. It can almost be said that Sean’s current team is already present, and even the heads of the mercenary regiments are fortunate enough to be invited. This really makes them a little sincere, after all, the mercenary regiments. This name seems to be quite remarkable, but unless it is the first-class mercenary group on the mainland, it has never been regarded by the nobles.

  It’s just that, because the heads of these mercenary regiments were seated, the situation in the conference room was actually a bit subtle.

  In this large conference room that can accommodate more than thirty people, there are three distinct groups of people.

The group of people sitting on the left side of the long table in the conference room are the nobles from the Principality of Lane. They are mainly Nolien Sharon. Although the number is only a mere five, they are real nobles after all. They have been since childhood. They have developed an arrogant and domineering style, so even if they were shocked by Sean’s dismounting, but these guys who have forgotten their pain after the scars are all looking full of momentum at the moment, as if they were in this conference room. Just like the master.

  The group of people sitting on the right side of the long table, although one more person than the five-person group from the old noble family of the Principality of Lane, they are the weakest group in the entire room. These six people are naturally the six commanders from the mercenary regiment. Of course, not everyone will put those nobles in their eyes, like the head of the Red Scorpion Mercenary Corps Catalina and the head of the Fierce Bear Mercenary Corps. Caron, these two guys didn't put those nobles in their eyes, just because the aura of the other companions seemed weaker, so no matter how strong the two were, they couldn't hold up the scene.

  As for the other group, they are naturally Sean’s people.

   In addition to the two giants William and Neal, those who entered the table have now officially joined the third giant, second only to Sean and comparable to William and Neal.

  Hella Nugus.

  For Hela, a very ordinary-looking woman, no one among the people present has not suffered from her, and even everyone once felt the pain of almost leaving their hometown. Therefore, for Hella to become one of the Big Three next to Sean, none of these followers under Sean's objection, on the contrary, they feel quite safe.

  This is the highest expression of respect for the strength of the Miracle Continent.

In addition to these three giants, the others present include Alfred, Rena, Chefanio, Stalin, Aldolph, Knock, Clover, Anno, Thain, Tini, Cecily Twelve people including Ya and Rude. Except for the four of these people, Xuefanio, Tini, Cecilia, and Rudd, all the others are already at the legion commander level. Those who hold positions are also big shots.

  As for Xuefanio and Dini, the people present are no strangers at all.

  In the final battle between Berbice and Kiraf, Xuefanio led her priests to become the most magnificent scenery on the entire battlefield. It is precisely because of the existence of this priesthood that the Cecilia Guards and Iron Wings, which are responsible for blocking the enemy’s retreat, have gone through a **** battle before they can stop the charge of as many as 50,000 people. It provides the most favorable guarantee for the opening of the Thunder Lion.

  It is precisely because of this that Sean will order a **** battle without letting any enemy on this battlefield escape.

  Because he has this news about the priests, Sean does not want to disclose it yet.

   But for those present, this is no secret.

   And according to Rupi’s information, Sean also knew that since the end of the battle, the five nobles from the Principality of Lane had all inquired about the situation of Xuefanio and Dini and the **** they believed in. However, only Nolane is the only one who clicks to the end. The other four nobles have tried to get close to Xuefanio or Dini, but unfortunately they have not succeeded. However, there are also very clever nobles who have chosen to go back and change. To please other members of the priesthood.

  Sean certainly knew what these nobles were thinking, after all, if he could have a clergy, this would definitely be an extremely terrifying increase in combat power. But if these nobles simply think that this will be able to win a clergy, then they are quite wrong. After all, Xuefanio and Dini are willing to work for him, or is it because he and Eswinter have Contractually agreed. Therefore, the final behavior of these nobles can only attract one or two priests. In this way, it is not difficult to ensure the situation of the nobles themselves, but if they want to be used in war, it is absolutely impossible. thing.

  Sitting in the meeting room, Sean's eyes swept over everyone present.

  His face looked very solemn, with an unprecedented seriousness, which was very different from the impression of Sean by many people present. Only those who have gone through countless battles following Sean will know that once Sean shows such a face, it usually means that he has made a decision in his heart.

   "How are we now?" Sean said solemnly, sitting in the lobby of the conference room.

"If the southern area of ​​the Kingdom of Darbion is basically under our control, the remaining resistance will be negligible." It was not the Big Three under Sean who spoke, but one from the Principality of Lane. Viscount, his face looked a little excited.

  In fact, not only this viscount, but the other four nobles except Nolane, all looked excited at this time.

Originally, they just wanted to come here to make some merits, and did not think too much, but it turned out to be wrong because the Southern Theater was the first theater to settle the war, and the merits they could make would definitely not be based on this alone. few. Especially in that battle, all of them participated. In any case, they were considered to be the troops involved in the frontline combat. Even if Sean did not exaggerate their military merits by saying a few words to them, what was the great military merit? Indestructible.

   "So, what do you think we should do better at this time?" Xiao En glanced at the viscount. Of course he knew the reason for the excitement of the other party, but what about?

"I think we should now provide reinforcements to the Southeast Theater or the Northwest Theater." The viscount still said with a look of excitement. "Now the only units in the South Theater that still have a relatively complete combat power are Prince Hodgid's troops. Although we can’t do it if we want to completely wipe out the prince’s vitality, this is meaningless to us at the moment, so we only need to stay behind one or two troops to prevent any movement from the other side."

  Is it really meaningless to destroy Prince Hodgid’s troops?

Everyone at the scene knows that this is not the case. Only by truly defeating Prince Hodgdi’s troops, capturing or even killing the prince, can this be regarded as the real end of the war in the southern theater, otherwise it can only be regarded as Nominally ended the war in the southern theater. In order to maintain this apparent unity, this also means that Sean must stay here with a force sufficient to contain Prince Hodgety’s forces, otherwise, once he switches to the other two theaters to reinforce the other two theaters, then Hodge Prince Di launched a counterattack instead, so when Sean returned to help, it was estimated that most of the territory he had finally won would be lost, and even more serious, it would also affect the strategic plans of the other two theaters.

  Therefore, it is definitely a very important thing to eliminate the vital power of Prince Hochdi.

However, the military strength of a prince Darbion is not enough for the nobles present. Perhaps if a noble is allowed to deal with it, there is indeed a lot of merit, but there is really no one among the nobles present. People have the strength to deal with the prince's forces alone. So this is the reason why they don't want to face the prince, because no one wants to have less merit.

   "According to you, that means we should reinforce other theaters now?" Sean raised his eyebrows.

   "Yes." The viscount nodded.

   "Heh." Xiao En smiled slightly, but ignored the nobleman, "William, Hela, what do you think?"

"I think we should solve Hodgdi first." Hearing Sean's words, Hela and William wouldn't know Sean's thoughts. This guy is obviously going to trouble Prince Hodgdi, even though they I don't know the reason, but of course it won't be reversed at this time. This is the name of the Lord Lord.

  Only Rena knows why Sean is so anxious to deal with Prince Kazes Hodgedi, because she was also there because of the agreement with Romeo. It was precisely because of that time that she became a follower of Sean, and she has been fighting with Sean all the way to the present.

   "This is a complete waste of combat power!" Upon hearing William's words, the viscount immediately retorted, "A mere prince..."

"Quietly?" Hela sneered. Since the final battle, Hela completely secured her position as one of the Big Three. Although she hasn't put on that kind of aristocratic score, some of them can almost be said to be branded. The original xing in her bones can’t be changed anyway, so her sneer makes people feel like being in the ice cave, “If it’s just a prince, then trouble this adult to solve him. , We’re here to congratulate the lord’s victory in advance.”

   "You!" The viscount was also a little speechless when he was choked by Hela.

The other three nobles looked at each other, and roughly understood that Sean, their nominal commander now, was determined to fight Prince Kazes Hodgety, although this was almost nothing to them. What kind of military exploits can be made, but they can't make a fuss with this commander because of this. After all, with their combined forces, it is the same for this commander as to whether they are present or not. This can be seen from the fact that they were hardly dispatched during the last battle.

  In a sense, they are actually no different from the self-employed troops.

"In a purely strategic sense, if the prince of Darbion is not resolved, then we can only reinforce the southern theater, and at the same time, we must leave nearly half of our troops to prevent the prince's counterattack." If it was the previous sea. La, she didn’t need to explain to these people in such detail, but the current environment was different. She thought she was no longer the tall Hela Nugus. Here, she was just Sean’s subordinate, and even a knighthood. There is no chief of staff, and based on her understanding of the nobles, if those nobles want to trouble her, they can simply be squeezed at will. Therefore, whether it is because of herself or because of Sean’s face problems, there are some things that she It must still be explained, "Don’t forget, everyone, we just solved the main force in the southern theater of Darbion, but the Howard family’s large force did not suffer any losses due to this battle."

After hearing Hela's words, everyone chose to be silent.

They are not fools. Of course, they know what kind of threat the prince Kazes Hodges’ full force size is to them. Originally, this is a choice whether to fight or not. Since Sean insists on fighting. , Then of course they will not argue about anything uninterestingly.

  But at this moment, the door of the conference room was suddenly knocked open.

  Everyone at the meeting was taken aback. The expressions on their faces were suspicious, surprised, jealous and unhappy.

  But when seeing the costumes of the people who broke into the meeting room, the faces of the nobles from the Principality of Lane became somewhat respectful.

  Sean’s sight did not fall on these people, but over them to look at the downed guards outside the door.

  Those are soldiers with jet black wings, heavy armor guards trained by William, but at this moment all of these people have been knocked down. If it were not for the weak aura, Sean would feel that they had been killed. And Bannock, who was responsible for guarding outside the door, was easily suppressed by a middle-aged man at this moment. If he weren't for the special meat shield profession of Barrier Paladin, I am afraid he would not end up heavier than those few. Where is the guard guard?

  Of course the most important point is that the person who suppressed Bannock did not kill him, otherwise he would have been able to solve Bannock with the strength of his upper golden pinnacle.

"I'm the special envoy of the Ryan military department. Who is the Baron Bandar, Sean Connery?" A man with a mustache stood out, his eyes hanging upside down, and it looked a bit yin. Bird of prey, this makes Sean dislike it very much.

  However, after hearing his words, the five nobles including Nolane got up immediately, and then bowed slightly to show their respect.

  This tribute is naturally not for the envoy, but for the person standing behind the envoy.

  During the war, the appearance of military envoys usually also represents the presence of the commander-in-chief of the battlefield, so no matter how high or low the title is, he must be respected. Of course, this is partly because special envoys have relatively large military powers, so unless they are truly powerful families, they generally ignore military special envoys. Otherwise, no one dares to ignore the existence of such a powerful villain.

  Unfortunately, Sean is an exception.

  He just retracted the sight of those who had passed them, and then landed on the so-called Ryan military envoy again: "I am."

  Sean’s indifferent reaction naturally made the envoy feel dissatisfied, but he would certainly not be a fool if he could serve as a special envoy. He may look down on Sean’s baronial title, but Sean still has an identity as the commander-in-chief of the Southern Theater that is equal to his special identity. In addition, Sean has just won a battle that almost completely ends the war in the Southern Theater. At this time, it is obviously irrational to have a conflict with Sean.

"I'm here to pass on the command of the military commander." The special envoy snorted coldly. "Now I order you to immediately put all the troops in the southern theater into the northwest theater, under the jurisdiction of the commander of the northwest theater, and end the war in the northwest theater as soon as possible. ......This is an order transfer letter, so please apply for a visa."

   Put all the forces of the Southern Theater into the Northwest Theater! ?

  Sean suddenly raised his brows, and he couldn't help but feel angry.

  The pacification of the southern theater is only a nominal statement. Everyone knows that there is still a big hidden danger in the southern theater. If this hidden danger is not resolved, the entire southern theater cannot truly support other theaters. At this time, it is said that all the troops of the southern theater will be transferred to the northwest theater. This is equivalent to giving Prince Kazes Hodgedi a chance to counterattack, and as long as he succeeds in launching a counterattack, regaining the large area of ​​the southern theater. Part of the territory, then Sean's efforts during this period will be completely wasted.

  If all the troops of the southern theater are put into the northwest theater and only Sean’s military exploits are erased, then letting Sean be incorporated into the jurisdiction of the commander-in-chief of the Northwest theater is tantamount to Shaun’s life.

  Because of the announcement of this order, it is tantamount to saying that Sean’s command will be reduced by one level, and all his actions will have to obey the command of the Northwest Theater Commander. Therefore, if the southern theater is occupied by a counterattack and he dares to lead his troops back to aid, then the commander-in-chief of the northwest theater can definitely sue him for escaping in battle.

  Hearing this military order, let alone Sean, everyone under Sean's command is not unangered.

  As for the nobles, apart from Nolane, the other four were somewhat gloating.

In fact, when the General Assembly battle in the Southern Theater was over, Sean knew that this time his achievements were too great and too brilliant. The old nobles in the Principality of Ryan would certainly not want to watch him sit up. After all, those guys also participated in the war. It was too slow. In fact, many of the early benefits were swallowed and digested by him. So Xiao En originally thought that those guys would wipe out half of his military merits or weaken his rewards and title. However, he didn't expect to be such a merciless method, and he would still use military orders to mobilize such arrogance.

  Then everyone present heard a laugh from Sean.

   Anger is very anti-laughing!
