Suldak stayed one night in the tower room where Hathaway used to live. The furnishings were still the same as before. It was obvious that the servants often cleaned this room. The herbs on the windowsill grew very lushly, with countless leaves.
The stems hang down from the windowsill like a green waterfall.
When you open the window, you can see the beautiful night view of the whole city. This dimly lit city is still extremely brilliant.
The top shops on the main streets are almost always open all night, and the real rest time is from dawn to noon.
After once again rejecting the maid arranged by Lady Marian, Marquis Luther and Lady Marian saw the lights in the room on the tower go out. They walked back to the bedroom from the window. Under the service of the maid, Lady Marian changed into
Nightgown.
Marquis Luther sat on the sofa, one arm resting on the back of the sofa, the other hand pinching his eyebrows, and said slowly:
"Back then, Duke Newman and the Bena Army were not confident enough to completely eradicate the red ant nest. Do you know the reason?"
Lady Marianne dismissed the maids beside her, adjusted the tassels of her silk shawl, walked to Marquis Luther and sat down in front of him, without speaking.
She knew that what Marquis Luther needed at this time was an audience who would not reveal any secrets, and she did a better job than Mabel and Sisi at this point.
Marquis Luther opened his eyes, picked up the water glass on the coffee table, took a sip of warm tea, and continued:
"When the Constructed Swordsmen of the Bena Legion entered the ant nests to fight, they found that the ant nests were the main battlefield of the ghost-marked red ants. The swarms of red ants could continuously pour in from all directions, and the underground ant nests were like a huge
In the underground palace, there are not hundreds of thousands of warriors who cannot fill the battlefield there, so we retreated from the ant nest in the Dark Worm Valley."
After hearing what Marquis Luther said, Lady Marian understood that victory in this plane war did not seem to be that easy...
"Didn't Keke win the war?" asked Mrs. Marian.
Marquis Luther nodded and said: "That's why he impressed the lords in Bena City... No one thought that he could succeed this time. In fact, with the current combat strength of his lord army, he can defeat Sanhe
The inclusion of the plains in the territory will be considered a big profit. He has shown good water control abilities in the deserted land of Helensa City. When he went to Bailin, he once said to me: If you want to occupy the Three Rivers Plain,
If you choke these three rivers, you will choke the lifeblood of the entire plain."
"Whether it is the tribe of newts, ghost snakes, giant swamp crocodiles, or giant red-backed turtles, once they leave the waters they rely on for survival, their combat power will be greatly weakened. It is only a matter of time before they seize the Three Rivers Plain."
Mrs. Marianne sat aside and listened quietly.
"In the two years he was stationed in Bailin, he saw many things more clearly than I did. In order to control the rivers in the Three Rivers Plain, he built a large dam on the upper reaches of the river, and even whimsically connected the canyons into one.
Reservoir, I didn’t know he had such a large number of outstanding craftsmen under his command." Marquis Luther sighed softly.
Mrs. Marian asked strangely: "He performed so well on the battlefield, isn't it what you expected? But why are you still frowning?"
Marquis Luther waved his hand and said to Mrs. Marian: "Archduke Newman wrote me a letter. The Warsaw plane needs someone to break the situation. He asked me in detail about Darke's situation..."
Mrs. Marianne covered her mouth with her hands and asked with a surprised look on her face: "You mean Archduke Newman wants to transfer him to the Warsaw plane?"
Marquis Luther sighed and nodded slightly.
"What does Duck think?" Mrs. Marian asked with a worried look.
Marquis Luther sighed and said: "You may not know that he served four years of military service in the Warsaw plane. It is said that the heavy armored infantry regiment he was in was completely destroyed in the Battle of Moyunling, so this
This matter has always been stuck in his heart, and his response is to wait until Hathaway successfully gives birth to the child, and then he will march into the Warsaw plane..."
Mrs. Marian was stunned. This answer was so natural, but it came a little suddenly. She walked to Marquis Luther and rested her head on Marquis Luther's shoulder. She did not say any words to comfort him, nor did Marquis Luther.
She needs to be comforted...
On the contrary, it was Marquis Luther who comforted Lady Marian at this time, saying: "He is now the great lord of the plane, and he has several very good followers around him, so there is no need to worry about his safety."
Mrs. Marian asked again: "What should Bai Lin do?"
Marquis Luther waved his hand, and then said: "The power he has there is much greater than you think. Do you know where the most elite soldiers of his lord army come from? Those from the Bailin plane.
The indigenous people took the initiative to join. One thing I have never understood is why those indigenous people are proud to join Lord Surdak's army..."
After hearing Marquis Luther say this, Lady Marian had an almost completely new understanding of Suldak.
She was a little excited and worried at the same time, and sighed: "Our women marry really good people..."
Marquis Luther also said with deep emotion: "Yes, based on what he has done so far, his name is destined to be engraved on the monument in the Heroes' Square in Bena City."
1. No words at night...
…
Surdak did not stay longer in Bena City. As the great lord of the Ganbu plane, he needed to return to his territory quickly after the plane war ended.
At the airport terminal outside Bena City, Surdak directly rented a magic airship and returned to Luyt City with Gulitem, Samira, Gary Decker and five hundred construct knights.
.
The 100,000 lords' army staying in the death camp, as well as the large number of military equipment and equipment traveling with the army, will return to Ruit City by land.
This time, Surdak won a great victory in the Bailin plane, so he acted with great courage.
The large army of the Lord Army marched on land, and actually entrusted the military trading company to hire nearly two thousand four-wheeled trucks. In addition, the Thunder Rhinoceros Trading Group of merchant Malacom followed behind. Surdak was still in the Bailin plane this time.
Five thousand Gubo war horses were purchased from the pasture. These means of transportation allowed all the Lord Army soldiers to ride in carriages on their way back, and some of them rode horses...
The lord's army returned to Luyt City in mighty force.
…
The captain of the magic airship ordered his people to clean the most luxurious room on the airship and graciously invited Lord Surdak to move in.
I originally thought that Samira and Kali Decker were the women around Suldak, and arranged for them to stay in this luxurious room. Then I discovered that those two beautiful ladies were actually Lord Suldak.
followers.
Obviously, Lord Surdak was not satisfied with this, and actually asked the crew about the airship captain in private.
After some alert crew members informed the captain of the news, the airship captain immediately hid in the captain's cabin and did not dare to show up easily...
Amidst the buzzing sound of the floating device, the airship slowly passed through the clouds and rose into the high-altitude wind layer.
In the process of searching for the channel, half of the sails raised by the five masts of the airship continued to bulge, making the airship appear a little bumpy.
Surdak pushed the door open and walked out of the cabin, just in time to see the two-headed ogre sitting on the deck chewing on the crunchy red ant legs. When he saw Surdak coming out, shaking the crunchy red ant legs in his hand, he signaled to Su
Erdak, let’s eat together...
Surdak immediately waved his hand. He knew: 'The ogre is only really polite to you when you invite others to eat together!'
Turn around and walk into the cabin below the deck. The cabin here can accommodate four people in one room. There are more than fifty rooms on the first floor. There are two floors below the deck, and there are four floors above the deck. Basically, all the crew members live there.
On the second level below the deck, below the deck does not feel depressing, but the space is very small, and Suldak needs to lower his head all the way to pass through the corridor.
Most of the construct knights were lying on the single beds in the cabin, and some were sitting by the round windows, looking at the sea of clouds outside.
Surdak walked around on the next level, and he told these knights: After the airship enters the wind and flow layer and the flight becomes stable, you can walk around more on the deck. In addition, the restaurant on the magic airship will be available all day long.
Open, reminding them not to forget to order a delicious dinner for themselves while admiring the sea of clouds.
The construct knights on the ship were greatly moved by Lord Surdak's reminder.
These people are basically the elite knights of the rebel army in the Ganbu plane. They stood out in several battles and were lucky enough to be selected as the Constructed Knights when Surdak formed the Constructed Knights this time.
.
Suldak inspected the ship before boarding the fourth floor of the ship and walked into the captain's cabin, which was not too big.
When the captain saw Lord Suldak coming to him in person so quickly, the moment he entered the door, he was so frightened that his hands shook violently, but his face was immediately filled with a flattering smile.
Generally speaking, these noble lords who can afford airship travel are very powerful, and these noble lords are also very temperamental...
Surdak walked into the captain's cabin. The blond captain immediately handed the steering wheel to the first mate and walked up to Surdak himself.
Before he could speak, Surdak asked him: "How many floating devices does your magic airship have? How many people can it carry at most?"
The blond captain was obviously startled, and then he realized that Suldak might not be here to cause trouble for him, and he immediately replied very humbly:
"With sixteen floating devices, five hundred constructed knights and war horses is its maximum load capacity. This magic airship is still a little behind large airships, but it is already a very good passenger airship."
In fact, when Surdak rented the magic airship, he chose the magic airship with the largest carrying capacity at the airport terminal.
Surdak nodded slightly, and then asked: "I want to know the difference between magic airships and military magic airships... I mean those airships that can fight in the air."
Only then did the airship captain realize that the Lord was more interested in magic airships, so he said diligently:
"Do you want to know about those floating battleships? Compared with this kind of civilian magic airship, first of all, it does not have magic cannons, and it does not have a defensive magic pattern array. The strongest point of the floating battleship is that the entire ship is at least
There must be a large defensive array with more than ten layers to ensure sufficient resistance when attacked by the enemy."
"Another difference is that the carrying principle of civilian magic airships is that the airship relies on a floating device to enter the wind and flow layer in the sky, which is what we usually call the sky channel, and relies on sails to move quickly in the wind and flow layer. We only
It is necessary to adjust the course and use the power of the wind to allow the airship to reach its destination. The only source of magical power is to supply sixteen floating devices to allow the airship to float stably in the air."
"But this is not the case for aerial battleships. The power source is several times larger than that of civilians, and it is divided into various parts, which respectively supply aeronautical devices, defensive arrays, boosters and magic cannons. Aerial battleships may usually be
It relies on the wind layer to fly, but when fighting, it requires a powerful magic booster, and once it enters combat mode, it consumes an unusually large amount of magic crystals, which is the biggest reason why floating battleships are so rare."
"As far as I know, in our Bena City, only Archduke Newman has seven floating battleships, and they are still parked at his private airport dock all year round and rarely used."
Surdak said with some surprise: "You seem to know these very well..."
The captain made no secret of it, patted his chest directly, gave Suldak a military salute and said: "Of course, I used to be a second-class crew member on the Grand Duke Newman VI floating battleship, and then I retired and ran away.
Be the captain of this airship."
"..."
In the eyes of other crew members on the magic airship, Lord Suldak seemed to enjoy chatting with their captain.
After the airship entered the channel, the captain asked the first mate to control the airship, while he personally took Suldak to visit the entire airship, and diligently introduced to him the main structure of each part of the entire airship, and gestured around.
Explain some of the arrangements on those floating battleships.
Only then did Suldak know that the Green Empire actually had such floating battleships for a long time. However, these floating battleships were not only expensive to build, but once they were in operation, they simply used magic crystals as briquettes to burn.
The grand dukes with rich families would not easily dispatch floating battleships...
Surdak and the captain got on very well with each other, so Surdak felt that the journey passed very quickly, and he arrived at Ruit City without even realizing it.
The Ruit City Airport Terminal is still the same as before, except that there are some round marble columns on the city walls around the airport pier. These marble columns are carved with exquisite reliefs, and on the top of the columns, some 20-span spans are being erected.
Arched stone beams of several meters, the platforms of these stone beams are even as high as the platforms of the airport terminal towers.
There are at least a thousand of these marble columns erected on the city walls throughout the city...
