"Marquis Charles?"
"The Marquis of Charles is the eldest son of the Duke of St. Hild, the first in line..."
"Nonsense! Of course I know who the Marquis Charles is, but why does his knight appear here? Why do we have to call us urgently?"
"Aren't the Marquis Charles fighting the trolls at the border? Are we going to the border?"
"How is it possible? It's so far from the border, even if it is urgently called up, it won't come here to enlist. And you see, the enlistment order clearly stated that we should go to Jinghu to gather in two days."
"Where is Jinghu?"
"It's not too far from here. Follow this small river for more than 50 kilometers north, and you will probably be there."
"Then shall we go?"
"I don't want to go to the battlefield!"
"But... but this is an emergency call for the Saint Hild family!"
"But it was not signed and issued by Lord Duke himself."
"Will the Marquis of Charles be the Duke of the North in the future?"
"That will have to wait until he really inherits the title in the future... And, I don't want to die!"
"It's not necessarily going to die, maybe this is a good opportunity to make contributions."
"Oh, idiot!"
"Who are you scolding!"
"How come I scold you!"
...
When Saru brought the emergency call-up order of the Marquis of Charles back to the camp, everyone immediately exploded the pot.
Someone agreed, some opposed, and the quarrel became a ball.
The reason for this situation is that this emergency call comes from the Marquis Charles, not his father, the Lord of the North, the Duke of St. Hild.
The title of Marquis of Charles St. Hilde is imaginary, and there is no actual fief, it is just a confirmation of his first succession right, which is a bit similar to the crown prince in ancient China.
But although the crown prince is noble, he is not the emperor after all.
Therefore, if the Duke of St. Hilde issued an emergency call-up order, then any northerners who received the order would not dare to resist.
But, if it is an emergency call-up issued by the Marquis of Charles...
Take a look at the Firefox mercenary group that is now clamoring together to see its effectiveness.
"Enough! Shut me up!" Saru yelled anxiously, stopping the quarrel of his subordinates.
Then he turned his head to look at Oliver and asked, "Does the Marquis Charles have the right to issue an emergency call?"
"I remember, Marquis Charles should have no such power..." Oliver was a little uncertain, turned his head and asked Colin for help, "Knight Kahn, am I right?"
"According to legal principles, the Marquis of Charles does not have this power." Colin searched the memory in his head, "However, there have been similar precedents in the history of the Northern Territory."
Oliver's face that had just improved, became gloomy again in an instant.
He absolutely does not want the Firefox mercenary group to be urgently called up at this time.
Without the **** of the mercenary group, his caravan has become a lamb to be slaughtered, and it is impossible to reach Fallen Eagle City safely.
"Then, Captain Saru..." Oliver's tone was a bit difficult, "Are you ready to accept this call-up order?"
Saru's brows were tightly furrowed together, obviously he was also very dissatisfied with this emergency call. After thinking about it for a while, he slowly shook his head and said, "No."
As soon as he finished saying this, Oliver immediately smiled, but the few mercenary leaders behind Saru immediately exploded.
"My lord, you can't refuse the enlistment order of the Marquis Charles like this!"
"Yes! The St. Hild family will not let us go!"
"And that team of cavalry...I think they really dare to kill!"
Saru suddenly turned his head and glanced viciously at the noisy mercenaries behind him.
The scene fell silent again in an instant.
"Do you know, if we go to Jinghu after receiving this call, what will we face?"
After hearing the question from the head of Saru, several mercenary leaders glanced at each other, and then replied: "It should be prepared for war. Although it is dangerous, it is better than defying the orders of the Saint Hild family."
"War?" Saru sneered, "We are going to die!"
"what?"
"Leader, why?"
"Fighting is not necessarily to die? And, if we win, maybe we also have some military exploits..."
"You are dreaming!" Saru relentlessly interrupted the delusion of his men, "Think again! Why did Marquis Charles' army appear in Jinghu?"
The mercenaries looked at each other.
Colin's eyes flickered, as if he understood what Saru meant.
and Oliver yelled directly: "Yes! I also suspect that the Marquis of Charles might have retreated all the way to the mirror lake!"
"what?"
"How can this be?"
"How could Lord Marquis lose?"
...
The mercenaries expressed their disbelief.
No blame for their blind trust in Marquis Charles.
Because, in recent decades, the trolls have been completely crushed and beaten by the Northern Army.
Five years ago, even the Troll King’s Court was forced to move north under the threat of northern soldiers. The large area in the southern part of the Icefield has almost become a game ground for the northern army.
If the climatic environment on the ice sheet is not too bad, it is not suitable for planting crops, nor for building manor castles, I am afraid that the territory of the north will extend further north.
Under such circumstances, no proud northerner would have thought that the Saint Hild family would be defeated.
But when you think about it, Saru and Oliver’s guesses make sense.
In recent months, there has been no good news on the frontline battlefields. Instead, several towns on the border have been breached one after another, and several families have lost their fiefdoms.
Everyone thought it was just a troll dog hurriedly jumping over the wall, and sent a small group of troops to bypass the front line and enter the northern border to harass.
Although the private armies of several families have been temporarily repelled, as long as the main northern army led by Marquis Charles returns, it will surely be able to clear these invading troll troops and regain lost ground.
But now it seems that it may not be the case.
Because the army of the Marquis of Charles has actually appeared in Jinghu...
There is no longer a border, but a hinterland.
In the memory of this generation of northerners, the troll has never had the ability to penetrate this place.
Most of the mercenaries fell silent, obviously they were scared.
But some people disagreed, and said, "Even so, then we can go to Jinghu Lake and help Marquis Charles defeat the invading trolls..."
"Idiot!" Saru snapped, "After the army is defeated, you still want to turn the tide? Just rely on us mercenaries who are urgently called up?"
"Not only us, the mercenary groups nearby must have received an emergency call..."
"A bunch of cannon fodder!" Saru knew exactly what his subordinates were.
These guys can kill their own people by mistake when fighting thieves. It is a bit of praise to say that they are mobs.
Still thinking about going to the battlefield to fight the regular army?
is really looking for death!
Saru finally made up his mind and ignored the voices of his opponents, turned around resolutely, and walked towards the cavalry of the Saint Hild family.
Looking at the back of Saru's departure, everyone looked at each other with different expressions.
Colin also suddenly realized that his father, Baron Anglia, had not written back for months. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
This is obviously a bit unusual.
It seems that someone is deliberately blocking the news from the front line...
Is the situation on the front line really bad?
...
"Do you dare to refuse the Marquis-sama's call-up order?" I don't know what Saru said over there, the St. Hild family knight headed by him suddenly shouted angrily.
"Sir Knight, I just want to know..."
"Enough! Refusing the emergency call is treason!" The knight arbitrarily interrupted Saru's defense, and said to the crowd of Firefox mercenary group gathered in front of him, "Whoever of you will kill this traitor and be promoted immediately Centurion!"
"Wow—"
There was an uproar among the mercenaries.
Some people are filled with righteous indignation, some people sneer, but some people have blinking eyes.
"My lord Knight!" Without turning his head, Saru confidently handed his back to the people behind him, and continued: "I respect the St. Hild family and respect the Marquis Charles, but we also have the right to know ourselves. What is going on where you are going..."
Saru’s words stopped abruptly after only half.
Because a long sword pierced his chest.
"Ho-Ho-" Saru vomited blood and tried to turn his head away.
After seeing the face of the young man behind him, the look on his face suddenly became extremely complicated.
"Boom!"
The body fell to the ground.
"Very good!" The knight on horseback nodded in satisfaction, looked at the young man holding a **** sword and said, "Tell me your name."
"Honored knight, my name is Thrall."
"Thar? What is your relationship with this Saru?"
"He is my father, respected knight."
