Chapter 339 Although he has no crown, he is also a king!
"Then, Moriarty will lead the Olympus Legion to rescue the siege at Fort Arte in a week?" The Baron sighed again and stopped laughing.
"Yes. Windsor goes to the west, Olympus goes to the east, and we break the devil's siege on both fronts at the same time, and then completely regain the entire territory of Kent County." Hamilton also attended the new strategy meeting last night and recounted the specific details of the negotiation one by one.
clear.
"Well, it seems that the 'sky' in Kent is really going to change."
The Baron is such a smart person, and after a moment's thought, he already knew Viscount Salk's intentions. Although the Ensberg family has no intention of "competing" for the throne, they can't help but think of the series of changes and reorganizations after the original political balance was broken.
It gives me a huge headache.
"Hamilton, do you think it's possible that we can send troops to break the demonic siege outside the castle without waiting for Morty to come?" Suddenly, the baron turned to look at "Lionheart" and asked.
"Sir, although the morale of the demons is currently very low. But I have to say that if you are not completely sure, I do not recommend that you give up the solid city defense support and risk a field battle with the demon army." Some people do not understand why the lord suddenly made such a radical move.
Asked a question, but Hamilton still answered logically.
"Then what do you mean by absolute certainty?" the baron asked with some persistence.
"If we have the Yakuza on our side, or at least those from the realm, we can deal with attacks from possible strong ones among the demons."
Having just experienced the Battle of Windsor, Hamilton naturally has a deep understanding of it. Even now that he has joined the "Round Table", he is more cautious. Let alone a big demon. Even if he is attacked by two to three high-level demons at the same time in a field battle
Siege, then the military strength of Yatebao will only be defeated.
"Yes...the ultimate...realm..."
Hamilton's words were like a bucket of cold water that completely woke up the Baron, and he no longer had the luck and rashness he had just had.
To be honest, if he wasn't really helpless, deep down in his heart, the Baron would not want to wait for his eldest son's army to rescue him. After all, the man had a good reputation. He "kicked" Moriarty out of the house that day, but within a few years, he had to rely on him again.
"Survival" is really a shame. On the other hand, the Baron's situation is somewhat similar to that of Viscount McLellan. If he were rescued by Olympus alone today, he would owe a lot of favors. In addition, Moriarty
His sensitive identity may shake the existing priority structure of the Ensberg family.
But it's a pity that Ensberg, who has always been good at business, can't produce any Templar or Grand Arcanist. Even the current "Round Table" Hamilton just "dropped" on the Baron's head like pie in the sky. So.
, as soon as the "lion-hearted" opinion came out, the baron stopped inappropriate "greed".
"Well, I understand. You should go and take a look at the city defense first. Although Windsor Castle is victorious, we cannot relax here to prevent the devil from jumping over the wall." After gathering his mood, the baron said.
"Yes, sir."
Hamilton then resigned and left the study.
"Go and fetch the madam."
Another person pondered for a long time, and then Baron Ensberg gave instructions to the steward waiting outside the door.
After a while, the Baroness walked in.
"Dear, I heard that Hamilton has returned. How is the situation?"
Several years have passed, and the Baroness is still beautiful. But perhaps due to the impact of the brutal war in the past year, there are a few faint lines under the corners of her originally charming eyes. When she saw the Baron sitting at the desk, she smiled
She came up behind him and gently rubbed his shoulders.
"we won."
There was no longer any excitement. The baron sighed softly and informed his lady about the battle report of the Battle of Windsor Castle.
"My dear, do you think Moti...will use the power of victory to make some inappropriate demands?"
As soon as the Baroness heard the news, her face suddenly became ugly, and then she looked at her husband with some suspicion. After all, the Baron had simply revoked the inheritance rights of his eldest son because of the heavy dowry.
.Now, if we face greater temptation or pressure, there is no guarantee that we will not do the same thing.
"No, Morty... doesn't like this position."
There was no need to turn around, the baron had already heard the lady's thoughts from her slightly trembling voice, and the reason why he called her here was to calm her down first and avoid unnecessary complications.
"You should know that Morty has already taken possession of Rheinburg, and if for no other reason, once the war is over, Viscount Salk, Viscount McLellan and I will jointly elect him as Baron of the Kingdom. And based on what he has said so far,
With all the merits he has received, I can’t think of any reason why the royal family would reject this recommendation. Therefore, Morty is already a de facto baron, just like me.”
Speaking of this, Baron Ensberg paused again, seeming to taste something both astringent and sweet.
The Baroness could only remain silent.
"And Morty has always been obsessed with the magical world, and he doesn't care too much about things in the secular world. Therefore, there are two baron families standing side by side in Kent County, which is good for both Ensberg and Joseph."
The baron said finally.
"Yes, my lord."
When she heard that her husband had clearly guaranteed that her son's inheritance rights would not be shaken, the Baroness's expression finally softened, and her mind became alert again.
"Dear, since Morty has such a powerful legion, is it possible to ask him to send troops to Ruhr County? I think the situation with my father must be very critical!" The baron has not contacted his natal family for more than a year.
Madam is also worried about her homeland.
"I'm afraid this is impossible." Ignoring the lady's pleading eyes, the baron said directly: "Once the war in the county is over, we and the four-party coalition will jointly send troops to Ogg County to occupy as much territory as possible before the royal army arrives.
, to make up for the war losses of each family. This is the established highest strategy and cannot be changed."
"Yes." After hearing what the baron said, the baroness could only nod helplessly.
At almost the same moment, hundreds of kilometers away in Rheinburg, there was still joy and celebration.
When I woke up in the morning and heard the news of the victory in the Battle of Windsor Castle brought back by the goblin airship, the people who stayed in Rheinburg, whether soldiers or civilians, were all ecstatic and rushed to celebrate, celebrating the crucial victory over the demonic invaders.
. Even a young and old woman understands that the battle at Windsor Castle will decide the battle, and the war situation in Kent will completely shift to the side of humans. The day is not far away when the devil is completely driven out of the home, and the hope of peace is already in front of us.
.
"Long live!"
"Long live Lord Moriarty!"
"Long live the Legions of Olympus!"
Throughout the day, almost crazy cheers echoed over Rheinburg.
"Sure enough, we won..."
Compared with the excited soldiers and the people, although White was sincerely happy for the victory in the battle, he was unable to fully devote himself to it.
Just the day before yesterday, when he learned that White had secretly sent "The Atonement of Carmendotlivos" to Sosk, Hadrow suddenly became furious and immediately questioned him severely. In response to the other party's questioning, White just
He kept silent and responded with silence. In the end, the conflict ended in an inconclusive end. But before leaving, Hadrow once again gave White a stern warning and asked him to obey the command in all future actions, otherwise he would be regarded as an "apostate"
"Discuss!
However, when he saw the other party again this morning, Hadro was just like everyone else, with a happy and gratified smile on his face.
Seeing this, White felt as if he had eaten a cesspit fly and felt extremely sick.
"Is this hypocrisy also for the sake of light?" Standing alone on the top of the city, White thought for a long time without saying a word.
One day later, all Olympians returned to Sosk.
In the town, Lord Senbo, the house officer, had prepared a warm welcome ceremony and a sumptuous banquet, and Heyna also came out to welcome her fiancé in person with dignity.
When Moriarty stepped off the Great Cloud, cheers and shouts burst into the sky immediately inside and outside Sosk. Both men and women, soldiers and civilians, humans, goblins or orcs, all presented their lord with the greatest enthusiasm and sincerity.
My own respect and gratitude. This also means that the rule of the new group headed by Moriarty in Kent County has been stabilized, and it has also been recognized and supported by the majority of the people at the bottom of society.
After all, whoever can bring safety, warmth and hope to people in the midst of fear and darkness is the undisputed rightful leader.
Even though he has no crown, he is still a king!
After a simple but warm celebration ceremony, Moriarty convened a military meeting of middle- and high-level military officers. As usual, he summoned White in Rheinburg in advance, but the response was still rejection.
"Your Excellency, you said that we will send troops alone to relieve the siege of Fort Yate in five days?" The staff officer first reported the strategic plan agreed upon with Salk. Guderian's eyes widened after hearing this.
"Yes, do you have any opinions?" Moriarty looked at the dwarf.
"Of course I have no objection!" Guderian jumped up directly: "Great! I was thinking of finding an opportunity to leave the other two families behind and go back with you alone. Hehe, a few years ago we
I was kicked out in disgrace, now I have to go back and show my dignity."
It turns out that the dwarf still remembered the unpleasant scene when he accompanied Moriarty back, and was eventually disinherited by the baron and "kicked out of the house". The last time he came to Castle Art, he was in a hurry and didn't have time to have an attack. Now "the environment is very good."
, Guderian naturally wanted to repay injustice and revenge.
"Don't be troublesome." Without White's suppression, the dwarves were like wild donkeys running wild, and only Moriarty could discipline them.
"I know, I know, just show it a little bit." Guderian smiled slyly again.
"Your Excellency, if we attack alone, wouldn't our strength be a little weak?" At this time, Gustav stood up suddenly and said. (To be continued...)
