Chapter 657: Camp on the other side

[Lord of the People: My talent is 100 million points strong] []

The evening wind is steep, and the night is deep.

The long forest belt under the Baibu Mountains is quiet and serene.

Next to the small lake near the forest, along with the patrols of soldiers passing by occasionally, the magic ball of light suspended in mid-air moved, reflecting the outline of a huge camp.

This is where the Second Prince's Vanguard Legion resides.

This temporary barracks, tightly enclosed by a sharpened solid wood fence, is located in the corner between the forest and the lake.

This position can undoubtedly rely on the terrain to the maximum extent to ensure the safety of the camp.

On the periphery of the camp, there are also a large number of deer villages and horse-rejecting horses. Judging from the sometimes faintly flickering magic streamers, it is obvious that they are all coated with a strong anti-magic coating.

It was different from the cavalry corps of the previous prince's forces, which were converted from villages to barracks.

In this temporary military camp built by the lake, a large number of animal skin tents are neatly arranged, and there are also more arrow towers.

Because of the hasty stationing, most of these arrow towers were built relatively low, but they were able to accommodate more archers to deploy them, which just corresponded to this infantry regiment mainly composed of longbowmen and light and heavy infantry.

However, compared with the heavily defended rival cavalry corps, the vigilance force in this Second Prince Corps is undoubtedly much lazier.

Under the quiet moonlit night, whether it was in the watchtower, the entrance of the camp, or the soldiers patrolling inside and outside the camp, they all looked listless, and many of them kept yawning.

Because the station is far from Kongqing Town, the soldiers of the Second Prince's Pioneer Corps are all rushing to march in the starry night.

Compared with the vanguard of the older prince, although the marching speed was slower, in order to prevent the opponent's cavalry from attacking in the middle, there was almost no rest in the middle, and they had to keep their nerves tense at all times.

In addition, when I first arrived at the place, it was non-stop, so I started logging trees nearby to build a camp.

As a result, even though almost all of these soldiers have condensed energy vortex, most of them are still exhausted, resulting in the current state of malaise.

Not far from the central army tent, in an extremely ordinary-looking tent, a sturdy middle-aged man dressed in high-level noble clothes was pacing slowly with a straight face and frowning.

Around him, there are also a group of strong men exuding a good momentum.

Half of these strong men are dressed in fine leather armor, while the other half are dressed in plate armor or heavy armor, and there are sporadic magicians in robes.

Needless to say, this is the core of the Second Prince's Vanguard Legion, the real tent of the Chinese army.

And that sturdy middle-aged man dressed in high-level noble clothes is the commander of this vanguard army, Marquis Eliton.

This person also has another identity, that is, the current city lord of Limestone City and another city.

"Lord Eliton, everything is settled now, I just need to watch the fire from the other side and wait for the main army to arrive."

I saw a middle-aged staff officer in a blue robe stepped forward and bowed to report.

"It's a good job, even if you lend the courage to Vince, forgive him and don't dare to take the initiative to provoke me, these pampered traditional nobles are just a group of useless guys who are strong from outside and work in the middle."

Eliton nodded first, then snorted coldly: "In the past two or three hundred years, if there is no rise of new nobles such as me, I am afraid that the Cold Flame Kingdom would have been destroyed long ago."

"Lord Elidon said very much, those weak and old-fashioned traditional nobles are just a group of moths of the kingdom. I will wait for the new nobles one day, and they will be completely wiped out."

The middle-aged staff officer Sensen smiled and echoed: "At that time, I will wait for their fiefs and their wealth."

Hearing the sound, the other commanders also showed stern smiles.

"Lord Elliton, then why are you still frowning?"

Looking at Eliton's eyebrows that were almost twisted together, the middle-aged staff officer asked with concern: "Are you worried about the Knights of Broken Blades who are stationed in Limestone City?"

"There's nothing to worry about that guy Laen, but it's just a dog at my feet."

Elliton waved his hand disdainfully, and said sternly, "Even if he lends that guy a hundred courage, he wouldn't dare to take advantage of the emptiness in the limestone city to do something outrageous."

"Lord Elidon is right. The Broken Blade Knights can't count to 3,000 people. Even if they were given a city of the same size as Limestone City, they wouldn't have the ability to defend it!"

Another thin commander with a longbow on his back joked: "That guy is also a descendant of a traditional nobleman. I didn't expect to degenerate to such a degree that he has become a dog on the side of adults!"

After speaking, the others in the room all laughed along with him.

"Lord Elidon, since it's not the Knights of the Broken Blade, are you worried about the remaining sons?"

The middle-aged staff officer lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked again.

"Those troublesome boys are indeed a problem."

Eliton's mouth twitched and he stopped.

Ever since he was about to hand over another city belonging to Limestone City to one of his sons, those ignorant boys began to fight openly and secretly.

In particular, the youngest son, Cliff, specially hired an old barbarian animal trainer to train some disgusting third-order monsters in the woods every day, and even played the game of hunting and killing mercenaries.

"Killing some insignificant mercenaries, it doesn't matter, but raising such vicious beasts outside the city, once it spreads, I am afraid it will damage the family's reputation and the development of Greystone City."

Elliton frowned, thinking in his heart: "And that kid Cleaver hasn't appeared for a while, isn't he where he is doing some small tricks? Well, let's wait until the dust of this war is settled. ."

After making up his mind, Elliton's frown furrowed immediately.

Then he said to the rather witty staff officer: "These are small problems. The problem I am really worried about is actually the next war."

"The next battle?"

The middle-aged staff officer pondered for a moment again, and said puzzledly: "Lord Eliton, the situation on our side is very good at present, we just need to watch the fire from the other side to see how the traditional nobles who serve the eldest prince are fighting against the fifth princess and the master of Kongqingcheng. It's enough to open a deal, so why worry about it?"

"The staff officer is right. When the First Prince's Vanguard Corps suddenly attacked the city today, his subordinates thought that Kongqing Town was about to be destroyed. I didn't expect it to annihilate that Vanguard Corps!"

The thin commander with a longbow on his back talked with great interest: "Those traditional nobles have lost the battle, and they will definitely not let it go. Now it's a good show!"

"When the two fight to the death, it will naturally be time for me to wait."

The middle-aged staff officer straightened the folds of his robe, and said with a smile.

"You idiots are so naive."

Elliton cast a glance at everyone, and said sternly: "Although I don't know who the commanders of the traditional nobles are, the other party will not really let me wait and watch the tiger fight, and there must be other plans. And that's where the risk I'm going to face."

After Eliton finished speaking, the leather tent, which was full of cheerful atmosphere, suddenly became quiet.

There was a thoughtful look on every commander's face, thinking carefully about the words of this high-ranking noble.

"As expected of Lord Eriton, he really thought deeply and woke up the dreamer with one sentence."

The middle-aged staff officer caressed the staff on his waist and said in a deep voice, "Furthermore, being able to annihilate the vanguard of the traditional nobles in such a short period of time shows that the new city lord Kongqing and the fifth princess are by no means the same. Ordinary things in a pool."

"The analysis is correct. When the news of the offensive and defensive battle of the fortress came out, I felt that there must be a lot of water in it. The purpose is to deter me and so on, so as to ensure the safety of Kongqing Town."

Eridon first sat down on the animal skin throne behind him, and his turbid eyeballs were quite sharp, and then a touch of sensuality appeared, and he continued: "But now it seems that the new Kongqing City Lord and the fifth princess are indeed The second prince's obstruction to the throne."

"It's very true what the lord said."

While rubbing his chin, the middle-aged staff officer said in puzzlement: "The villain has one more thing to understand, why did the city master Kongqing and the fifth princess take the risk to intervene in the border war? Even if the mountain fortress was captured, there would still be The cities with the power of the great prince are blocking it.”

"It's really puzzling."

The thin and thin commander carrying a longbow, Ningmei followed and said: "In this way, the previously unknown Kong Qing City Lord and the fifth princess have undoubtedly become the most eye-catching objects of the whole Leng Yan after the three princes. , what are they thinking?"

"That's something I've been thinking about as well."

Eridon, who was leaning on the animal skin throne, stared at the light spar lamp beside him, and pondered: "As the saying goes, there must be an extremely complicated reason for this, and there is more than one."

After a pause, Eliton frowned again, and slowly said to the thin commander with a longbow: "If it's not what I expected, one of the reasons is exactly what you doubted. Like that."

"Oh?"

The thin commander was stunned for a moment, and the puzzled expression on his face became a little richer. After he thought about it for a while, he suddenly realized: "Lord Elidon, you mean that the new city master of Kongqing and the fifth princess have a relationship. What is the pursuit of fame after the three princes?"

[Lord of the People: My talent is 100 million points strong] []

"That's right."

Eliton nodded slowly and affirmed: "Help the defenders who are at an absolute disadvantage, repel the incoming Holy Night Army, and avoid a life ignited by the fire of war, which will definitely be extremely rewarding. vulgar fame."

"For the sake of this good reputation, let yourself be lost? Isn't this self-destruction?"

The middle-aged staff officer was still confused, and he quickly asked: "Judging from the actions of those traditional nobles, it is clear that the city lord Kong Qing and the fifth princess are also regarded as thorns in the eyes, and even if the traditional nobles do not take action, we will naturally wait. Choose the opportunity to destroy it, why do they want to face the disaster of extinction for that illusory fame?"

"It's really puzzling."

A piercing chill appeared in Elliton's eyes again, and he said coldly: "But the possible explanations are not completely absent, such as... The fifth princess and the city lord of Kongqing, who calls herself a princess guest, are also ready to win the cold. Flame Throne!"

"what?!"

Hearing this unexpected answer, the commanders present were shocked beyond words.

But immediately, the shock on everyone's faces turned into disdain, as if they had heard a big joke.

"My lord, with all due respect, are you overthinking it?"

The middle-aged staff officer first bowed and saluted Eliton, and then a sneer came to his face, and snorted: "The fifth princess and the new city master of Kongqing are also ready to compete with the resourceful second prince, His Royal Highness. Throne? It makes me laugh out loud!"

After the staff officer finished speaking, the other commanders also looked contemptuous and snorted.

"That's right, this is the stupidest thing this subordinate has ever heard in his life!"

The thin commander clutched his stomach and laughed with tears in his eyes: "Why are they? Just relying on a small empty green town, if the fifth princess had the ability, she wouldn't have escaped from the capital! Besides! The new city lord Kongqing is said to be an alien lord like an ant!"

"You group of blind and arrogant idiots are just like those arrogant and stupid traditional aristocrats. At the beginning, if they didn't look down on me and wait for these new nobles, and then let down their guard, how could I wait with those guys today? have equal shares?"

Elliton looked coldly at the subordinate in front of him, and continued: "Furthermore, whether it is Kongqing Town or the fortress offensive and defensive battle, there are rumors of fifth-order powerhouses appearing and appearing, which must be guarded against. "

"My lord taught me that it was me who was superficial."

I saw that the commanders immediately bowed and saluted, and said in unison.

However, despite what they said on the surface, at this moment, the hearts of everyone were still filled with disdain and contempt.

"Forget it, I hope I'm overthinking it."

Keenly aware of what his subordinates were thinking, Eliton pondered for a while, and then continued: "Currently, the vigilance of our camp is too loose~www.readwn.com~ Immediately increase the number of manpower for each post by three times, and increase Three times the number of sentries and patrols in case something unexpected happens."

"Sir, is this necessary? Those traditional nobles have just suffered setbacks and will not be able to come to attack, and Kong Qing City Lord is even less likely to provoke us at will. He will never want to face me and those traditional nobles at the same time. Let's attack together?"

The middle-aged staff officer's face was full of puzzled words: "Our army is extremely tired now, which is a good opportunity to recharge."

Hearing the sound, the other commanders also nodded.

"It's better to be cautious in everything. How do I usually teach you?"

Elliton looked cold and said coldly: "Go and prepare, if it's too late, it may be too late."

"Yes, my lord!"

Although I felt that this matter was superfluous, it was after all an order from Lord Eliton.

While walking out of the tent, a look of disdain appeared on the face of the middle-aged staff officer.

Then he muttered to himself: "If those traditional nobles really attack, it is very likely that the city lord Kong Qing is interfering with it. Only by letting us fight can he get the chance to relieve himself, but because he has this opportunity Is it a big deal?"

However, the middle-aged staff officer just thought of this.

A burst of high-pitched screams of killing from the sky came from all directions of the camp.
