Chapter 962 The werewolf Eris Kaishuang is an attitude towards life
Although the negotiations between the two parties regarding the ownership of the Kafhoka region did not make any substantial progress at all, and even the negotiation itself was not completed, the Wolf Girl's secret audience with the God of the North Wind was still very effective.
At least her personal arrival gave the currently embarrassed Winter Wolf Legion and Wilderness Legion a reason to withdraw their troops from the front line in a dignified manner.
The Crimean fortress where the Yankees were originally stationed is gone, and the Transanians' Cadman Castle will certainly not allow them to enter there. Therefore, during the period after the battle in the central battlefield, General Baldwin's
The Corps was stationed at the easternmost position of the Maginot Line.
The name is unfair and I won't go into it. The most important issue at the moment is that due to Murphy's operation, Cadman City fell from the sky and got stuck on their evacuation road, turning them into a geographical unit.
A lone army.
The second way back to Nordtov now is to go back around central Transia and return to Kakhovka from the city of Batashin.
But this road that passes through Scarlet Castle is even more impossible. Unless Murphy or the Scarlet Archon is crazy, it is simply natural to allow foreign troops who currently have territorial disputes to march on their own land.
Destroy the Great Wall.
General Baldwin was planning to discuss this issue with General Kudel, the commander of the Maginot Line, but the Queen's quiet visit solved the problem perfectly.
The soldiers of the two legions will pass through Cadman City in a dignified manner in the name of protecting the queen. Miriam did not refuse this behavior in order to show respect for the queen of a country.
The wolf girl can't stay here for too long.
As the head of a country, she has to deal with a lot of things. Even meeting the gods can only be done briefly. Another more important problem is that Old Sutou will leave the material world the day after tomorrow at the latest, and there will be no big deal.
There was not enough time for the ceremony.
However, the Church of the Winter Wolf has decided to classify this area that became a permafrost land due to Su's arrival as a "Holy Land".
They wanted to build a Winter Wolf Cathedral here as a memorial to those who sacrificed their lives during the Fifth Black Catastrophe. This decision was unanimously approved by the Wolf Girl and the Governor of Transia, and it was decided on the spot that the church would pay for it, and that it would be funded by
The Brotherhood of Masons from Transia came on board to design and construct the building.
This is also the only consensus reached by both parties in this short meeting.
After talking about these things, Her Majesty the Wolf Lady declined Murphy's hypocritical dinner invitation and set off in her luxurious carriage. The soldiers of the Winter Wolf Legion and the Wilderness Legion who had been assembled in advance also followed her.
The queen sets off.
The city gates of Cadman City were opened wide to make way for the nobles. The citizens of the city were still gathering on the roadside to watch the excitement. However, the obscene words heard from the crowd from time to time expressed the Transnian people's hatred towards the Yankees.
Attitude, not throwing rotten vegetable leaves at the Queen's chariot was their last act of dignity.
After all, in the eyes of these astral nomads whose thinking was still stuck nine months ago, the Kafhoka area was originally the undisputed territory of the Bosian Confederation. Even now, the Bosian Confederation has become a historical term, but as a former
The main state of the country, after independence, Transia undoubtedly has legal jurisdiction over the Kafhoka region, so these Yankees who took advantage of the chaos to sneak attack and occupy their own territory deserve a damn beating!
This kind of civil attitude worried General Baldwin, who was retreating with the Wolf Girl. He now adopted a cautious attitude towards possible conflicts between the two sides. The general had already made up his mind to immediately retreat to Kavhoka after the Winter Wolf Legion.
A temporary defense line was built behind Cadman City to deal with possible conflicts.
But after seeing with his own eyes how the People's Army slaughtered the Jackals, even the most confident Yankees would not believe that a temporary defense line could withstand a large-scale attack by the Transians.
As far as the current situation is concerned, the general can be sure that once Transia takes the initiative to start a war, it is very likely that most of the entire Kakhovka Plain will be occupied by them within a month. However, there is no way to defend against this threat.
It is an unsolvable problem for those foreign heroic spirits who have completed the great deed of killing gods and are still getting stronger.
If the Jackals are psychologically affected by the foreigners, then the Yankees will most likely not lose badly.
"Mr. Baldwin, thank you for your hard work in this frontline battle."
Just when General Baldwin was thinking pessimistically, the Wolf Girl's voice sounded from the carriage. Although she was a little tired, she still encouraged:
"I heard from my brother about your grandfather's heroic performance in this battle. He is indeed a heroic ancestor who followed the King of Heroes to conquer the wilderness. My only regret is that I could not meet him in person."
"Your Majesty, your words are serious. My grandfather told me before leaving that I must serve the country more diligently."
General Baldwin said in a deep voice:
"I think if he sees an outstanding ruler like you inheriting the throne of the Hero King, he will also feel happy from the bottom of his heart for the country. But Your Majesty, regarding the possible disputes in the Kavhoka area
I know I may sound weak when I say this, but I really don't recommend that you start a conflict with the Transians at this point.
Transia under the command of Lord Murphy is a group of hungry lions. They have just defeated the Jackals and it is a time when their morale is high. If we must use war to end all these disputes, then we can choose a more suitable time.
, such as when Transia collides with the Plantagenet Kingdom in the future.
They have the same border disputes as the Plantagenets."
"Well said. He is indeed an outstanding soldier and has an excellent understanding of the situation."
The wolf girl praised:
"I must reward you for your achievements and your outspoken advice. I read the battle report on the way here. The performance of the Great Wilderness Army this time was very unsatisfactory. It seems that the Army, which was once regarded as a trump card by the King of Heroes, has been resting for many years.
China no longer has the courage of the past.
I have decided to transfer you to be the commander of the Great Wilderness Legion, and at the same time promote you to the Kingdom Marshal. The Winter Wolf Legion will still be at your disposal after it returns to Winter Wolf Castle."
"This is too grand, Your Majesty! I deserve it."
General Baldwin sighed in his heart, and he responded sincerely:
"After all, I bear the unshirkable responsibility for the fall of the Crimean Fortress."
"Even the gods appeared on the battlefield, Lord Baldwin!
This is obviously not your fault. This has exceeded the limit that we mortals can intervene. Because you led the army to protect the safety of the God of the North Wind in the crisis, the Great Temple of the North Wind even plans to grant you the title of 'Saint'
.
In comparison, the awards I can give seem too philistine."
The wolf girl smiled and said:
"That's it. When we return to Beifeng Castle, we will prepare a military parade and promote you to marshal on the spot."
"Wait, Your Majesty? You want to bring the Winter Wolf Legion and the Great Wilderness Legion back to Beifong Castle?!"
Baldwin was really frightened now, and he exclaimed:
“But once we leave here, what happens to the defense of the Kafhoka area?
The quality of the local troops alone cannot be the opponent of the Transians. Even if those miraculous immortal heroes do not participate in the war, the people's army trained by Murphy in the war can make those second-line troops a sandwich for breakfast.
Eat the bread with joy."
"Nordtov has a vast area, many talented people, and an army with thousands of good generals. I can't think of it that I can't even get a general who knows how to fight except Lord Baldwin, right?"
The wolf girl's tone was not very happy, she said:
"I have made up my mind, Lord Baldwin. After you get the position of marshal, you will lead the Great Wilderness Army back to the northern border, attack with the headquarters of the Winter Wolf Army under your command, and give a severe lesson to those Western Sabarians who are harassing the border again.
Gangster.
I also hope that you can bring the Great Wilderness Legion back to its peak within a few years. As for the defense of the Kafhoka area, Marshal Heraclius, who is always busy, will take over!"
"Marshal Heraclius?"
When he heard the name, Baldwin's worries finally exploded.
This old marshal was not General Baldwin's political opponent, or even a nobleman when he was in the army. It was with the appreciation and support of the old marshal that General Baldwin was able to take charge of the Winter Wolves despite the criticism of his family.
But it was precisely because he knew this old boss well enough that Baldwin became more worried.
Because Marshal Heraclius is not only the leader of the conservative faction of the Nordtov military, but also a true hawk.
He had always been dissatisfied with Nordtov's failure to gain more land and benefits after joining the war in the late Ten Years' War. He even sent someone to secretly contact General Baldwin before the Black Disaster began to prepare for launching a "border friction" against Transia.
”.
Now that the Wolf Girl actually sent such a marshal to take charge of the defense of the Kavhoka area, Baldwin simply could not imagine how this matter would develop in the future.
Maybe within a few years, maybe within half a year, the conflict between the two countries will break out in full force under the action of one's own side.
General Baldwin's first reaction was to dissuade the wolf girl, but then careful thinking from family inheritance made him suppress this impulse because he quickly thought of another thing.
After Her Majesty the Wolf Lady ascended the throne, the military has not been very satisfied with the queen's national policy of reform. They believed that it harmed the interests of the military. Those opponents were led by Marshal Heraclius, which led to the
The relationship between the Marshal and His Majesty has always been tense.
Those courtiers who were loyal to the Wolf Girl even hinted in public several times that the old marshal should retreat when he was old. But just when Transia demanded a claim here and the Wolf Girl fought back forcefully, His Majesty sent the Kafhoka area to the
The defense was handed over to the marshal who had always been at odds with her, and a backbone of the royal party like herself in her prime was transferred to the border for gilding.
hiss
I don’t dare to think too deeply about the key points involved.
General Baldwin fell silent.
He sat on the horse and fell into deeper thinking. He had heard from Count Andre that Her Majesty the Wolf Lady had done a reckless thing not long ago. She took advantage of the opportunity when Grand Duke Shani was not in the country to attack Callum.
The Dragon Emperor of the ancient country paid a low-key and secretive visit.
It is said that the two sides have also reached some cooperation at the national level. During the years of His Majesty's rule, although the conflict between her and Grand Duke Shani has never been made public, as the backbone of the royal party, Baldwin also has his own allies in the court.
.
He knows some disturbing inside stories about the Ice Palace.
Based on the above reasons, Baldwin seems to have seen an invisible storm gathering in Nordtov. It is difficult to guess what the final result of this storm will be, but what is certain is that Her Majesty the Queen is no longer satisfied.
Yu shared power with his right-hand man.
The general also realized that the queen's transfer was not alienating from him.
This is precisely a kind of protection. She obviously does not want General Baldwin to be tainted in the upcoming fierce turmoil.
"Mr. Baldwin, to be honest, I have been having a problem."
The wolf girl suddenly asked a question at this time, which made the general who had just won the victory subconsciously hold the reins of the horse. Before he could answer, Queen Angelina seemed to be aware of some worries in Baldwin's heart, and she asked softly.
:
"Do you think I will become a leader worthy of the King of Heroes?"
"Of course, Your Majesty."
"Then, are you willing to offer your loyalty to a queen who you believe is destined to achieve great things?"
"Loyalty to the leader is the motto of the Baldwin family, Your Majesty!"
"Well, that's good. Guard the north for me, abide by your duties as a soldier, and you don't have to interfere with domestic affairs for the time being. I think soldiers should be more pure, what do you think?"
"As you command, Your Majesty."
——
"Ouch~~"
The long and unbridled wolf howled from far to near, and the flying shadow passed through the strange permafrost on the edge of the swamp at an extremely fast speed and approached the God of the North Wind who was resting on the cliff.
Some Beifong priests who just arrived here tonight wanted to protect the gods but were blocked by their seniors. They knew who the guy was and the complicated relationship between that guy and the God of the North Wind, and they had no intention of getting involved.
In God's housework, we don't want fanatical young people to run away and make fools.
If you were beaten by that "thorn head", it would be like receiving a beating in vain.
Lao Su didn't pay much attention to this strange guy approaching him. He didn't even open his eyes to look at it.
Amid the excited and joyful wolf howls, a huge black-haired werewolf stopped in front of Su's eyes like a gust of wind. It was several times larger than an ordinary werewolf, and the most peculiar thing was that this guy had a wolf in his hair.
A touch of flowing golden hair.
It raised its head and stared at Su unruly, letting the wind blow the wild mane on its body, and then under the moonlight it lost its hair like magic, transforming into a standard figure in the cold night.
The image of the rugged Yankee.
In his human form, this guy didn't forget to give himself a short golden hair. The muscles on his body are quite obvious, and he looks full of the power of an evil gangster.
The only problem is that this guy didn't prepare any clothes for himself. Considering that he just learned these mysterious powers from the werewolf, he probably didn't have enough time. It's also like a naughty kid who got a toy and wants to show off to his family first.
I no longer take into account those little corners.
In short, it will be quite cool and does not care about its image in the eyes of others.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you, Old Sutou, and I'll show you my newly learned skills. Look, I can change freely in three forms. Although it is the work of a cultist, I suspect that this is the creator.
Leave the surprise for me!”
The guy just opened his arms in front of the God of the North Wind so carelessly, and he didn't feel any problem even if he let the creature be tossed around in the wind. It was like a monster that had just become a spirit and lost its hair.
Silly and naive, innocent and wild.
"Just because you lost your hair doesn't mean you have become a human, Eris. People should wear clothes and know their shame. But you are more like a beast than your sister."
Old Sutou said in a very disgusted and indifferent tone:
"Didn't you decide on your own to sever all ties with me? Why do you want to come here to make others uncomfortable?"
"I'm just here to see you for the last time. Don't be ignorant, you old guy. I didn't want to come, but someone persuaded me. Anyway, I have something to talk to you about!"
Eris wanted to show his teeth, but as a human, he could only show ferocious anger. He moved his body uncomfortably and said to the God of the North Wind:
"About those werewolves!
Although they respect you as their wolf father, they obviously cannot go to the star realm, let alone follow you to fight in subspace. They always need a leader in the material world, and I have a good time with them. Marcus also hopes to find one.
Familiar strong people serve as backers, so I hope"
"You wish to form your own wolf pack?"
Su's eyelids moved, he opened his left eye and glanced at Eris, which said:
"Does a guy who calls himself a 'lone wolf' also want the warmth of the pack? However, do you think you have any special skills that can make you a qualified wolf king?"
"I don't know, maybe there is, maybe not, but I can learn from other people. I already have very powerful friends in the star realm. Brother Mannis said he will teach me how to become an outstanding leader.
It looks like a pro to me.
After all, it boasts that it has trained even outstanding vampire leaders like Murphy, which shows that it is really experienced in this area."
Eris put her hands on her hips and said:
"With such seniors taking care of me, I now feel that I have a great advantage."
"Who? Mannis taught you?"
Su was stunned for a while.
Suddenly I felt that my son might be hopeless. Maybe when he was thrown into the material world as a cub, his brain would be broken or his eyes would be blind. Maybe he would be left alone to hang out in the material world.
good.
After all, his best descendants have returned to the star realm, so there is no big problem whether Eris will return or not.
"They have dedicated their loyalty to you, Eris. They are like a group of ignorant children eager to find their place in the material world, just like you back then."
The God of the North Wind closed his eyes again and said:
"If you think you can lead them, then go and form your wolf pack, but from now on, you will be the protector and symbol of the werewolves. The righteous deeds they do will honor you, and the evil deeds they do will also implicate you.
.
This is the responsibility of being a leader, this is
I haven't finished speaking yet!
No running!
You bastard, stay here quietly and listen!"
Eris, who was impatient to listen to the old man's clichés, yawned and turned to leave, but was blown by the cold wind and turned into ice crystal chains, trapping him in place.
Old Su Tou stood up angrily and scolded the son of the wolf father in front of him:
"How can you become a qualified leader with such a dissolute and irresponsible attitude!"
"But I have no intention of leading them myself at all. Does it bother you, an old man who can't keep up with the development of the times?"
Eris retorted with an unhappy look:
"I have signed a mercenary agreement with Governor Murphy. My wolves will work in Transia to earn money to support themselves. Archon Miriam will pay them wages and a legal identity to keep them clean.
Make a new life from scratch.
What age is this? You still use the old tricks of the beast to restrain us. No wonder Kherson was brought up like that by you!
The red-haired archon has taught me that the most important thing as a leader is to set rules and point out the direction for his followers. In addition, doing less means doing more. Only by ruling by inaction like Murphy can the population be brought together.
Stay dynamic and grow.
Although I don't live as long as you, I know how to learn from others.
Old Sutou, you have been eliminated by the times. Go back to your subspace and continue fighting your war.
Young people, please don't interfere.
Look at how daddy you look, it’s really impressive.”
"But I'm your dad, you bastard!"
Old Su Tou was extremely angry and roared:
"My wolf pack has been working hard to protect all living beings for thousands of years without slacking off. How come I, Su, have accumulated a lot of good deeds throughout my life and gave birth to a lazy guy like you! Are you the leader of the werewolf tribe, or is Murphy the leader of the werewolf tribe?
He has done everything, so what do you need to do?"
"I work as a thug for him, don't you know? I just signed a contract with Archon Miriam. I can make a lot of money every year, and I can also get commissions. This is what Brother Mannis taught me.
It’s so tiring to start one’s own business these days. It’s a lot of risk and a lot of work. It’s better to be affiliated with a big company and enjoy the benefits.
This living oil and water is very big, let me tell you"
"Don't tell me! You are a shameless guy who is spinning around in circles. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you will lose all the face of my wolf pack in the future!"
"Okay Su, just wait for me! I can't beat you now, but thirty years from Hedong."
