"Cough, cough, cough."

With the sound of coughing, marquis Twain opened his eyes. Gustav and Nord immediately came to him. He looked at the surrounding scene bleary, and finally focused on Nord and Gustav.

"Where is this?"

"Father, this is a small town in the middle."

Gustav was very happy when he saw his father wake up. His eyes were full of sadness when he looked at Marquis tween. During the period when Marquis tween was unconscious, he was very afraid. Suddenly one day, his father died suddenly.

"How's the war going now? Marquis Mellon, isn't he..."

"On the second day of your coma, there were pursuers behind us, and then the Marquis of Mellon... I didn't hear from him."

Marquis Twain closed his eyes and looked sad. Although his relationship with Marquis Mellon was not as close as that with grand duke Beth, as the two Marquis who had made great achievements in the war of the Principality of Beth, they looked down on each other more or less. Before, the Principality of Beth reconciled their relationship, and they were old friends of the grand duke than him, One is the Archduke's brother, and they are all the strong pillars of the Principality of Bethel.

However, in this special period, they are the last hope of the Principality of Bethel, and Marquis tween and Marquis Mellon have fought side by side for many years. Even if they despise each other, they have a certain position in each other's hearts. Now, marquis tween also has the feeling of rabbit death and fox sorrow when he hears the news that Marquis Mellon may have died.

When he broke through the siege before, marquis Twain still had a glimmer of vitality in his heart. Although Marquis Twain always thought Marquis Mellon was a reckless man, he had to say that Marquis Mellon's personal strength was very strong. He rushed to the front of the team every battle, regardless of how many enemies there were in front of him, With the Marquis of Mellon, they can lead the War Bear knights to disperse the enemy's formation.

However, the Marquis of Mellon failed to create miracles this time. In the case of being besieged, it would be very bad news if there was no news. According to Marquis Twain's own analysis, the Marquis of Mellon had almost no possibility of survival when the Ximan kingdom could free up its hands to pursue them.

After a long time, marquis Twain, who reopened his eyes, did not recover his spirit in the past, but became more confused. Nord just got the injury of marquis Twain from the mouth of the medical soldiers. In fact, it was not a big deal. It was just because of the war some time ago that Marquis Twain was too tired and a little old, That's why I've been unconscious since I was injured.

Moreover, Nord could see that the defeat of the battle had a great impact on the Marquis of Twain, which made him feel unacceptable. Now what Marquis of Twain needs is rest. He can't continue to work hard. Nord winked at Gustav. Then Nord said to the Marquis of twain with no God in his eyes:

"Uncle, you should go back to the north to recover from your injury. The north and Gustav are still inseparable from you. You must cheer up."

"Yes, father, I should go back to the north as soon as possible. Let's regroup first and then take revenge on those people in the Ximan kingdom."

Gustav comforted his father according to Nord's words. In fact, Gustav wanted to go back to the North immediately. The battle experience of coming to Bellon city hit him too hard this time. Gustav's first major battle ended in failure, which was a major blow to a fledgling young man.

After hearing the consolation of Nord and Gustav, marquis Twain's mood did not improve much. No one knows better than him what the form of the Duchy of Bethel is now. The complete combat effectiveness of such a large duchy of Bethel is only count Jonson in the south, but the South has been sealed off by the Ximan Kingdom.

Maybe it's easy to clean up the south when the Ximan kingdom is free. Marquis Twain's pessimism can't be comforted by Nord and Gustav in a few words. However, marquis Twain didn't refuse to hear Nord's proposal to let him return to the north. With a group of disabled soldiers and defeated generals, he can only return to the north to recover slowly.

"Back to the north, let's all go back to the north. Let's live a safe and stable life. What's the situation in the middle now? Can we pass safely?"

"Please rest assured that the central region has been cleared by me. Now it is unimpeded. Now it's not too late. You can start immediately. I'll stay in the central region and continue to block the army of the Ximan kingdom."

Hearing Nord's words, marquis tween flashed a flash of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that Nord could achieve such great achievements in the middle. Even if the Marquis Stilwell left in the middle was weakened by him and Marquis Mellon successively, the skinny camel was bigger than the horse, and even the remaining strength of Marquis Stilwell could not be dealt with by Nord.

Marquis Twain looked at Nord, and his nephew created another miracle. Maybe the ISAAC family could really reproduce the past glory in his hand. Marquis Twain struggled to get up, and Gustav hurried to his side and helped him.

"In that case, I won't advise you any more. As a defeated general, I have nothing to suggest you. It's still the previous sentence. You should be more careful and act according to your ability. Don't fight all your life like me and end up in disgrace."

Marquis Twain said as he walked out the door with Gustav's help. He came to the soldiers in the north and helped them restore their morale one by one.

After seeing the Marquis TEWIN, the soldiers in the North recovered their spirit on everyone's face, and Gustav, who supported the Marquis TEWIN, showed a thoughtful expression on his face. He seemed to understand how to lead the soldiers.

These soldiers are not the dead objects of every emotion. Each of them is a living life. During the period of escape, Gustav did not pay too much attention to the situation of these soldiers. Then the old Marquis Twain woke up and rushed to the soldiers to comfort them at the first time. This is the habit of leading the soldiers for many years.

Marquis Twain taught two young people a lesson with his own actions. Marquis Twain's face became more pale when he came out of the barracks. In this way, Gustav was very distressed and his face was also a little guilty.

Because these should have been his responsibilities. Obviously, he didn't do well, which made Marquis TEWIN so tired. At the thought of this, Gustav couldn't help but secretly make up his mind. Next, he must bear his own responsibilities.

"Please rest assured that I will stop the army of the Ximan Kingdom beyond the north. I am fully prepared, just as I promised you last time that I can help you guard a way back. I will do what I said."

The pale lipped Marquis of Twain was very pleased to look at the sworn Nord. He had looked away from Nord several times. The young man was always full of accidents and could always create miracles. Since Nord helped him out of the siege in twain City, the Marquis of Twain looked at the young man differently.
