The latest website: "I heard that Wind's Rest City has also fallen."
As the night darkened, Earl Schultz sat in front of the bonfire and said to Earl Uman beside him.
"Sooner or later." Earl Uman was not surprised by this.
The armies of the other realms have already withdrawn, and it is impossible for the people from the western realm to stop the army of orcs.
Not only Wind's Rest City, but the fall of the entire Western Region is already doomed.
Count Schultz trimmed his hair, and his beautiful face flickered in the light of the bonfire.
She hesitated for a moment, then asked softly:
"Has Wells Dawson contacted you?"
Earl Uman glanced at Earl Schultz and nodded.
Ever since Marquis Garcia led the army from the north to evacuate the Tianduan Mountains, although the lieutenant generals were afraid to reveal Marquis Garcia's prestige publicly, there were already undercurrents behind their backs.
With the influx of refugees from the Western Region into the Scarlet Flames, the tragic situation of the Western Region being ravaged by the orc army also began to spread.
And all of this has turned into a huge pressure of public opinion, shrouding the people in the north.
But how can the soldiers in the north be willing to bear such infamy?
They also just do what they are told.
The order to withdraw was given by Marquis Garcia.
If Marquis Garcia hadn't had a high prestige in the Northern Army, I'm afraid the soldiers in the Northern Territory would have mutinied long ago.
But even so, the prestige that Marquis Garcia had accumulated over the years was completely exhausted, and there was no longer the respect of the past when the soldiers looked at him.
Moreover, some northern lords have also begun to connect in secret...
After withdrawing from the western border, the rest of the army regrouped at the storm fortress, but the northern army, led by the Marquis Garcia, crossed the storm fortress and continued all the way east, until the Loire Valley stopped and set up camp.
Emperor Reinhardt was very angry about this, thinking that Marquis Garcia was avoiding war, and he had issued several orders, requesting the army from the north to go to Storm Fortress to prepare to block the orcs who were about to enter the Scarlet Flame Territory.
But Marquis Garcia has been ignoring it and doing nothing.
With the passage of time, the undercurrent surging in the northern army has become more and more intense, and even has a tendency to become a monstrous wave.
"It is said that Wells Dawson received the secret support of Emperor Reinhardt." Earl Schultz said again.
Earl Uman sneered and said disdainfully: "So what? Emperor Reinhardt can't order the lord of the North to serve Wills Dawson."
"It really can't. However, the support of Emperor Reinhardt can give him a very significant bargaining chip. Moreover, there are more and more people in the northern army who oppose Marquis Garcia. If this continues, I am afraid that Wells Dawson is sure of a public power grab."
Earl Uman's eyes were deep, and he reached out and fiddled with the bonfire in front of him.
Count Schultz saw that the other party fell into silence again, so he had to try again:
"I don't know if Earl Angelie will come..."
Earl Uman's hand visibly paused, but he still did not speak.
Although both of them are blood descendants of Colin, they do not know each other's identities, because Colin did not introduce them to each other.
However, both of the blood family, Earl Schultz and Earl Uman can indeed feel some vague connections between each other, so both of them doubt the relationship between the other party and Colin, but they haven't pierced that layer of window paper. .
After all, according to Colin, the identity of the "Blood Angel" cannot be made public yet.
Earl Schultz and Earl Uman still have some scruples.
"Count Angele should come." Earl Uman finally said.
"That's the best!" Earl Schultz smiled sweetly. "I don't want to fight with that idiot Wells Dawson."
Earl Uman gave Earl Schultz a deep look, and suddenly asked, "Count Schultz, you seem to be looking forward to Earl Angele's arrival."
"Of course. Are there any doubts about Earl Angele's military ability?" Earl Schultz asked, "Don't you also look forward to Earl Angele's arrival."
Earl Uman smiled and said as a matter of course: "Count Angele is my brother-in-law, of course I'm looking forward to it."
"I see." Earl Schultz smiled charmingly, approached Earl Uman, and said softly, "Then I'm still his lover!"
Earl Uman's face suffocated slightly, and then he shook his head with a smile, knowing that he probably couldn't test anything, so he didn't say any more.
Just as the atmosphere was getting awkward, there was a sudden commotion in the camp.
Earl Schultz squinted and said, "That's the direction of Marquis Garcia's camp."
Earl Uman immediately got up and walked over, and Earl Schultz followed.
When the two came to the camp, they found that Marquis Garcia had come out.
In front of him, four knights of the San Lorenzo family were standing.
The knight at the head was the captain of the Kings Guard, Erich San Lorenzo.
He was holding a fiery red long sword with a narrow body, but it was still densely engraved with complicated and mysterious patterns. Driven by the power of holy light, these patterns exuded a scorching aura, as if there were flames flowing.
Count Schultz recognized this sword at a glance, it was the sword of Emperor Reinhardt—
[Flame Messenger].
The Erich Knight held the [Flame Messenger] and said in a majestic and indifferent tone:
"Garcia St. Hilde, by His Majesty's order, please follow us to the Storm Fortress immediately, if you don't—"
Speaking of this, the holy light on Knight Erich erupted, the [Flame Messenger] in his hand leaned forward slightly, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Marquis Garcia:
"I will cut off your head with this sword and bring it back to Storm Fortress!"
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Everyone in the North knew that Emperor Reinhardt lost his patience and gave an ultimatum.
The most extreme method is used.
However, none of the northern nobles and soldiers present stood up to defend Marquis Garcia.
If Emperor Reinhardt dared to send someone to read such a decree in the northern army before the orcs invaded, the envoy of the royal family would be hacked to death by the angry northerners without Marquis Garcia's order.
But now, everyone in the north just bowed their heads in silence.
Marquis Garcia's expression was indifferent, and it seemed that UU reading didn't take the emperor's death threat seriously at all.
However, this time he did not turn a deaf ear to the emperor's order, but nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Knight Erich didn't seem to have expected to be able to complete the task so "easily", and he was quietly relieved, but he also secretly despised this Marquis of the North, and even more determined that this person was a cowardly person who was afraid of death.
"Lord Marquis, please!" Knight Erich put away the [Flame Messenger] and made a gesture of invitation, unexpectedly asking Marquis Garcia to go with them immediately.
Marquis Garcia did not resist, and immediately strode out.
Count Schultz's expression changed when she saw this, but then she seemed to realize something, so she didn't say anything.
And Earl Dawson couldn't hide the secret joy in his heart. Just when Knight Erich was leaving, he handed a look full of meaning, which made Earl Dawson ecstatic.
