Chapter 118: The Desperate Queen and Princess

"Don't forget, if this plan is really implemented, the thousand cavalrymen following the two His Highnesses will also escape death, and they will be even more dangerous.

Since you are all so loyal to Tristin, how about you serve as bait with your two highnesses?"

This is what makes the medieval world disgusting. The so-called nobles and commoners are obviously the same life, but they are almost two worlds.

Just like the decoy plan proposed by Wood, no one would care about what would happen if they followed a thousand cavalry, because most of them were ordinary civilians.

"It's really treasonous and unethical..., it's really treasonous and unethical!"

"Sure enough, civilians are civilians. Even if they change their skins, they still have no sense of honor like nobility."

Wood's words directly made the nobles present blow their beards and stare.

However, when most of the nobles at the scene were criticizing Wood, Henrietta, who was also standing behind Queen Tristen, stood up to support Wood.

She even bluntly stated that if it was for Toristin, she would be willing to become a bait to attract enemy troops.

"Anrietta, I am the queen of Tristin, so I should be the bait.

If I fail to come back this time and Tristin wins by chance, then you will be Tristin's new queen."

Queen Tristine and Henrietta were still performing a scene of motherly love and filial piety, but Wood spoke quite inhumanely again.

"Her Majesty the Queen, and Her Royal Highness Henrietta, you don't need to be humble to each other, I have said it before.

If the plan is to be implemented, you must become a bait together. Only by doing so can you have the weight to lure away nearly half of the opponent's troops."

After hearing what Wood said, many nobles present drew their swords or took out their wands.

"You rude person, I will definitely kill you here today!"

"Yes, if we had done something like this today, we would still have any honor as nobles."

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, most of the Toristin nobles even believed that Wood was an undercover agent sent by Albion, with the purpose of letting Henrietta and the others die so that they could take down the entire Toristin without a single blow.

"Everyone stop it! Minister Wood will propose this plan for the sake of the entire Tristin.

After all, with such a huge disparity in military strength, Torristin would have no hope of winning if he did not choose a more desperate approach.

So I think I accept Minister Wood’s proposal and act as bait with Henrietta to give Tristin a chance to win.”

Queen Tristine's decision naturally aroused fierce reactions from the nobles again, and each of them tried their best to persuade the queen to give up this dangerous move.

However, Queen Tristine clearly seemed determined and decided to take action tonight.

Her Majesty the Queen had made up her mind. Seeing that the outcome could not be changed, the other nobles could only stare at Wood standing aside as if looking at a traitor.

But Wood didn't care at all about these looks. When he proposed this plan, he knew that the Queen would most likely agree to it in the end.

Because if they fight step by step, Toristin has no chance of winning.

Instead of just sitting there and waiting for death, it is better to gain a chance of survival.

Taking a step back, even if he and Anrietta died, at least Tristin could still survive.

That night, Grammont recruited a thousand cavalry, and Queen Tristine and Henrietta were also dressed in military uniforms and prepared.

Facing the soldiers who were summoned here, Queen Toristine also rarely spoke out her words of encouragement in person, and said that there would be generous rewards afterwards.

However, most of the people gathered here also knew that tonight's mission was almost impossible, so their expressions were not too excited.

Because it was about the comfort of the queen and princess, Gramon did not cheat at all this time. These one thousand soldiers were almost the best among the thirty thousand troops.

Among them, those who can use the magic of nobles even account for one-third of the team.

Unlike those nobles who look like old-timers, these energetic young nobles really dare to die for their honor.

"Mr. Wood, I also know that this bait mission is very dangerous, if we really encounter that situation.

I hope you can at least protect Henrietta and leave. I know this may be a bit difficult, but with your strength, I believe you will be able to do it."

Before the team set off, Queen Toristine specially met Wood alone just to say this to Wood.

Wood's force is obvious to all. It may not be realistic for him to defeat tens of thousands of troops, but there is still a high hope that he can escort one person to escape safely.

And while everyone was riding forward, Henrietta, after deliberately avoiding the Queen's sight, quietly came to Wood's side, and she asked Wood for help, which made Wood burst into laughter.

Because Henrietta's request to Wood was similar to that of Queen Tristine, but the target was different.

Henrietta said that her mother is the queen of Tristin. Tristin can live without a princess, but she cannot live without a queen.

Therefore, as the "familiar master", Henrietta ordered Wood for the first time to protect Her Majesty the Queen and leave as soon as possible if in danger.

The whereabouts of some of Wood's people did not choose to be deliberately exposed, because even if they didn't do much, Albion's scouts could still find them.

After all, the route had been selected beforehand, and the noise made by nearly a thousand cavalry was not small. As long as people who were not from Albion didn't be too stupid, they would naturally be able to spot them.

Although the former Kingdom Marshal is leading the battle in Albion today, the actual manipulator behind the scenes is Sheffield, the brain of God.

The Crown Prince of Wales sat on the main seat with dull eyes, while the "Ring of the Water Elf" on Sheffield's finger behind him emitted a faint blue light.

Marshal Albion didn't know why the Crown Prince of Wales suddenly attacked Tristin, who had always been friends with them.

But the current situation is very good, and Marshal Albion believes that letting Queen Tristine and Princess Henrietta go is harmless to the overall situation.

Especially since Princess Henrietta is still engaged to the Crown Prince of Wales, if she is too cruel, even if she kills Tristin, it will only leave a bad reputation, which will not be conducive to future rule.

However, it is a pity that despite Marshal Albion's heartfelt words, he was completely unable to convince the Crown Prince of Wales, who still insisted on issuing an order to pursue the Torristin royal family.

The marshal didn't know why the formerly gentle and elegant crown prince became like this, so in the end he could only leave angrily.
