ps: Chapter 2, ask for tickets, ask for subscription

Very good, Mr. Dio, I hope you will not disappoint me!

Edward looked at Major Dio and said with a sigh.

To be honest, Edward didn't value this support operation at all, and the reason why he wanted to send troops there was to see the real highland fighters.

The second is to fulfill the responsibility of the King of Scotland, so that he will not follow the truth.

third! That is to see how capable this Frenchman is and whether he is worth appointing.

To be honest, Edward is still holding the title of King of France, but he knows very little about France, and he doesn't know the terrain!

Especially after Henry VIII personally conquered France for so many years, the generals of the expedition were either dead or old. It was tantamount to dreaming to expect them to conquer France again.

At this time, Dio Jean Coslander entered his eyes.

First of all, he betrayed King Henry II of France, which caused France to completely lose the ally of Scotland, and also allowed Edward to enter Edinburgh, directly giving him the crown of the King of Scotland.

Not to mention that he indirectly caused Henry II to lose the daughter-in-law of Queen Mary, and the dream of combining France and Scotland was ruined.

Therefore, the current Dio can still be trusted, but his ability is unknown.

Therefore, Edward will have to see how good he is this time.

If it’s okay, he will be the pioneer when the French Civil War comes; if the mud can’t support the wall, then let him be a baron and make a sign to reduce the resistance to marching into France in the future.

I thought about it in my heart, but Edward still had a smile on his face as always.

Mr. Dio, you will be the leader of the 1,500 reinforcements!

After hearing these words, Major Dio felt relieved, and promised with an excited face.

Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will not let you down!

Major Dio knew that leading the army this time was a fork in his destiny. If he did a good job, he might integrate into the England system and no longer be an idle baron.

Remember, you are here to support. If there is no danger in Glasgow this time, that is, if there is no danger of being breached, try not to contribute. You can station around it. If the people in Glasgow insist on you sending troops, remember Live, you must ask for military expenses and supplies, as much as you can! Anyway, you can't afford less!

Edward said without hesitation in front of Earl Wellington, without any sense of shame.

Yes, Your Majesty! Although Major Dio felt a little disgusted in his heart, he couldn't ignore the king's order.

Okay, let's go down quickly, time is running out, we will start tomorrow!

Edward waved his hand and drove away Major Dio directly.

Your Excellency, the French are coming. Before the navy is wiped out, the French army will not land on a large scale, but just in case, you still have to be prepared and conduct strict inspections!

Edward's voice became more and more cold, and his eyes were also full of anger.

Also, Scotland has been an ally of France for so many years. I think there must be many people, even nobles, who are plotting how to cooperate internally and externally, and even set off a riot directly to capture this big fish alive and give credit to their master!

And now you have to cooperate with Dark Blade and crack down on this disgusting behavior. After you catch it, you will be punished for murdering the king! All property will be confiscated!

Edward's tone was slow at first, as if he was talking about a trivial matter, but when it came to dealing with it, he was very decisive.

Yes, Your Majesty, it is my honor to serve you!

Although I felt a little bit about the king's cruelty in my heart, he was not the one who died, so there was no need to plead with the king for them.

Earl Wellington's expression changed, he closed his lips, and his eyes became more serious.

Edward was somewhat satisfied with the earl's sense of taste. For the upcoming naval battle, Edward had to stop the whole of Edinburgh for a while.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, the Earl stepped back consciously.

Edward couldn't help but cast his eyes out of the window. over there. Pedestrians coming and going and peddlers shouting and shouting together weave a picture scroll of ordinary life in the Middle Ages, which is plain and full of life.

However, Edward knew that this was only the surface, these were just the calm before the storm.

The sky gradually dimmed, and the heat that originally radiated from the air in Edinburgh also slowly dissipated. With the slow rise of the cold air, the pedestrians on the road became less and less, and Edinburgh officially entered the night.

Different from modern times, in the 16th century, candles were still a luxury item, and only nobles and limited wealthy merchants had the money to use them. In this ordinary period, ordinary civilians could only start the journey of making people.

A little bit of starlight shines in the big castle of Edinburgh, and there is a mansion in it, and the lights look brighter and brighter.

Your Excellency, currently thirty nobles have agreed to support us, and fifteen of them have agreed to send servants to join our crusade! A mellow voice sounded in the hall, and the joy could be heard Feelings.

Yes, in a few days, that little king will get out of England in disgrace! Hahaha! Another loud voice with some tinge came out, and his tone was full of joy.

Bob was used to these voices. Since a group of people came to the mansion a few days ago, his master, Baron Gordon, was happily discussing something with them. He didn't understand these things.

As a young servant who lived in the baron's mansion since he was a child, he has always regarded obedience as the standard for his master and never dared to resist.

However, ever since this group of people came to the mansion, they had a lot of fish and meat every day, held banquets almost every day, and seeing so much expenses every day, he couldn't help feeling sorry for his master.

And he also heard that there are as many as ten sheep being killed every day.

Guarding the door, Bob tilted his head, he couldn't help but worry about his master, his eyes began to drift away.

Suddenly, he noticed a soldier in armor appeared in front of him, holding a spear in his hand. The sharp tip of the spear was shining brightly in the dark night, with a murderous look.

You, who are you? This is Baron Edgar's mansion, leave quickly! Otherwise, I will make you look good!

Looking at the dozens of spears in front of him, Bob threatened sternly, stuttering a bit.

The leading officer didn't care about the gatekeeper, so he was dragged away, opened the brightly lit room, and forced his way in.

Who are you? Don't you know my mansion here? The young man standing in the middle shouted loudly.

Of course I know, you are Baron Edgar. The leading officer smiled without thinking at all, I'm looking for you!

Seeing the relaxed look on the faces of the rest of the people, the leading officer said again, Of course, there are all of you!

Congratulations, you will be arrested for murdering the king, see you on the guillotine!
