"You have brought everything you need to bring! What else is there?" I checked one by one: "The black iron sword, the vampire's touch, the ring and necklace that the lady gave me, and the powder that I asked Amaterasu to prepare for me...
…Done!"
I put away my belongings and looked out the window. It was still dark. As long as no one else was around, it became very quiet in the early morning here. However, I seem to be a lively person, so I would like to go out for a walk.
.
The previous governor here was undoubtedly a bastard, but he was also a person who knew how to enjoy life. The layout of the back garden was quite particular. I liked the low, evergreen plants on both sides of the path the most, as well as those a little further on.
Various flowers and plants.
While I was feeling this rare quiet time, I was thinking about it in my head.
The negotiation was successful, and supplies for the rebellion are no longer a problem. If we attack during the New Year, I am 100% sure that we can end this war next spring.
Originally, I was still worried about Fichet's mood, but I received a letter from my father a few days ago, saying that our Majesty has been going very smoothly with the princess I kidnapped in recent days.
I already have some real smiles from time to time.
That's great!
I actually care more about Fichet than the war in front of me. Once this battle is over, I will tell my father that we should just let Fichet hold a wedding. Although the other party is a princess, it is not a big problem. Save it
Every time Fichet and I talk about women, he looks at me with sour eyes. He doesn’t even think about it. Although I have four wives, there are also elements of him causing trouble...
"Sir." Carlos's voice sounded from behind: "The convoy is almost ready."
"Well, thank you." I said softly: "Did you stay up all night again?"
"It's okay to do this occasionally." Carlos came over and stood side by side with me: "At my age, I am at my most energetic."
"I'm sorry! I can't let you go back to the darkness with me."
"That's not the case. Don't take our joke seriously." Carlos smiled and said, "Boss, have you noticed that your temper has changed a bit recently."
"Has it changed? I don't think so."
"There are less times when you are angry." Carlos nodded and said, "People also seem much more mature. Does the age of eighteen really have magic power?"
"What are you talking about?" His words made me laugh: "This is just an ordinary eighteen-year-old, what kind of magic is there but not magic?"
"But I was telling the truth just now!" Carlos put away his smile and asked me seriously: "But as your staff officer, I now want to know, boss, what you think of the current situation and what your long-term plans are.
?”
I asked Carlos to squat down and found a few small stones and spread them out on the ground.
"This is the province that Luman actually controls. These are the four provinces that we currently control." I pointed at the stones and said, "And now this war will never end before the New Year."
"Yes, judging from the current intelligence, Luman also needs arrangements." Carlos nodded and said: "The rebels are larger in number than us, and they need several times more supplies than us, so they can't do it after the New Year.
get ready."
"That's it. Those forward bases will be completed in the New Year. The rebels will definitely be aware of it, so the enemy troops will definitely be stationed in front of us..." I drew a line in the stones: "Behind the Holy Capital"
The defense must be empty."
"Boss, what do you mean?"
I looked at Carlos with a smile on my face: "I don't think these governors will be completely loyal to us. The address of the forward base will definitely be leaked. What do you think the enemy will do?"
"Are they attacking in advance?" Carlos patted his head: "But their main purpose is to eliminate us. Attacking in advance can only grab those supplies! If they want to fight all the way, with their combat effectiveness
Then there is no chance of winning."
"That's right. I think this bastard Luman will let us attack first. He will let us go out and then use a large number of troops to contain us from the front." I stared at Carlos: "Then the elite troops will attack our rear.
, and even detoured from other empires to attack our dark and dark moon provinces."
"He..." Carlos was stunned for a moment: "Does he have such courage?"
"With the support of the red priest, what else can he dare to do?" I patted the dirt on my hands: "For him, this is the last battle."
"It's the same for us." Carlos looked at me: "Boss, you look calm and composed. Do you have any countermeasures?"
I chuckled.
"Say it quickly!"
"He wants to catch our tail." I drew a line on the ground with my finger: "Can't we catch his tail?"
Carlos looked at the line, and it took him a long time to raise his head and ask, "Boss, you mean from the sea?"
"Our navy has not been idle during this period. It has the ability to transport 20,000 troops at the same time." I stood up and wiped off the traces on the ground with my feet: "Let Haiert lead 20,000 troops, do you think he can do it?
To what extent?”
"I agree, the basic strategy has been decided like this." Carlos also stood up: "I will make a plan."
"Then please." I smiled and said, "As a thank you, I will hold a dance for you after this battle is over."
"I'm looking forward to it." Carlos made a "please" gesture: "The ladies must be waiting impatiently, sir, let's go!"
"It will take me at most fifteen days to go back." I took a few steps, turned around and said, "When I come back, the attack will be ready."
"It seems that, sir, you don't want to spend this New Year in peace!" Carlos gave me a military salute: "Don't worry, I will make arrangements."
I put on my helmet and walked out of the gate of the Governor's Palace. Outside the door was my personal guard, and in the distance was a guard battalion guarding more than a dozen light carriages.
"Sir, everything is ready. There are four Guards battalions meeting us outside the city." Rock came over and said, "Are you going to ride a horse or take a car?"
"I'm a major general, so of course I ride a horse." I put down my helmet and face protection: "Tell the people behind you to watch the ladies in the carriage carefully. It's very troublesome for them to lose a hair."
"yes."
"Set off!"
Although galloping is one of my favorite things, after two days of driving the convoy, I finally couldn't bear it anymore. With these ladies traveling together, the speed was extremely slow and very troublesome. Fortunately, here it is now
It was my territory, so I led one battalion to go first, and the remaining four battalions protected these delicate girls as they walked slowly.
Back to the Dark City again.
Is my costume too conspicuous? Even though I was mixed in with so many guards, I was still recognized by people on the street after entering the gate of the Dark City. I was almost surrounded by a large group of children and couldn't move in the middle of the street -
—Because it was after lunch, children of all races were on their way to school.
Fortunately, Municipal Supervisor Rona was not idle during this period. There is a police station in the Dark City. A group of police station soldiers wearing new uniforms received the news and came to rescue me.
Logically speaking, as the governor of a place, the Governor's Mansion should be a place where I feel more friendly and warm, but this is not the case. There are various dangers in the current Governor's Mansion for me, so I walked into the Governor's Mansion.
The first words at the door were - "Where is the old bastard?"
"Ah! Sir." This guard was obviously new here and didn't understand what I was asking at all: "That..."
"Go aside." The guard captain on duty pushed the rookie away and whispered to me: "Sir, Dean Lorenzo is in the college and I heard he won't be back today."
"Oh?" I asked as I walked: "How is the construction of the college going?"
"It has been repaired for less than half of the time, but there are too many people and many tents have been set up." The guard captain answered me: "Dean Lorenzo is busy until late every day and doesn't come back until late."
It seems that Lorenzo is quite dedicated.
I turned my eyes and saw the chief chamberlain walking in the distance. I waved my hand and he hurried over and told me that the ladies were in the front parliament building, my father was in the back parliament building, and His Majesty was in the garden.
Which side should we go to first? It’s so hard to decide...forget it, let’s go in order.
"Mr. Governor, um." The chief chamberlain said hesitantly: "Your mother is also here, and there is another..."
"I know." My heart tightened, knowing that this was another huge crisis: "Get out of here."
Dill is here!
Walking on the stairs of the former parliament building, I felt quite heavy: when I left last time, Feline and I had a conversation about Dill, and they reluctantly accepted it. But no one said that women
Is your heart the most elusive thing in the world? Are the four of them really compatible? Only a genius knows.
Before that, the harmonious relationship between my three wives was not without reason. Feline, Kelly, and Wensley were all childhood playmates, and we knew each other very well. Feline and Kelly also knew each other well.
Understanding my feelings for Wen Sili, it is inevitable for the two sisters to accept Wen Sili.
But what about Dill! To my original three wives, she was a latecomer, right? Can they forgive Dill's behavior of "jumping in line"...
If the four people cannot live in harmony, given their characters, the victim will definitely be the miserable governor.
Then, then... what if the four of them live in harmony? What if they are very compatible? If they are of the same mind, they will reach some kind of tacit understanding, and will they unite to deal with me... Then the victim is also the poor governor.
?
Oh my god! Why did I marry four wives? It’s really nerve-wracking.
No, this can't go on. Who is this young master? How could he be defeated by four ladies? Brace yourself and never bow to women!
We were almost reaching the top floor, so I stepped lightly and took off my helmet.
There were several maids standing by the stairs. I stopped their announcement with my gestures and slowly stood by the door.
The three ladies were sitting facing the window, each with a desk, looking like they were working on official documents.
Her long hair was carefully tied up on the back of her head, with an identical hairpin stuck in it. The hairpin was inlaid with feathers from the wings of the eldest princess of the God Clan. Except for Winsly, I couldn't tell who was who for a moment.
"Hmph! The clan tycoons are causing trouble again." Kelly on the left complained in a low voice: "This time, three guys were actually caught in the police station."
Feilin, who was sitting in the middle, raised her head slightly: "Why?"
"What else could happen?" Kelly said: "They all say that the women of their own tribe are the most beautiful, which leads to arguments and eventually fights in the street."
"I also have a report here." Wen Sili on the right continued: "The tribal tycoons applied to end their studies at the college as soon as possible. They said that Dean Lorenzo was driving them crazy."
"Kelly, your punishment will be lighter. They have just settled down and need some time to adapt, lest they run to cry to their husbands if the punishment is severe." Feilin thought about it and made an arrangement: "Wen Silly, your punishment
You must not relax. If you are not proficient in being an official now, you will bring more trouble to your husband in the future."
"Okay!" Wensley replied: "Speaking of which, where is my husband now? He is almost there!"
"It won't be so soon. My husband also has a large group of girls with him. He has always been accommodating to girls..."
I smiled and leaned against the door frame, listening to their guesses about what I would do along the way, while carefully admiring the slender backs of the three ladies.
When I was away, they were responsible for handling so many tedious matters. Regardless of their responsibilities as municipal supervisors or their status as the governor's wife, they all helped me so wholeheartedly because they loved me!
So, even if I get teased by them occasionally, what does it matter even if they lose their temper at me? Because, after all, I love them in my heart...
Love and being loved, in my previous life, this was such a luxury, but now I actually get it. Having these is enough, isn't it?
"Sister, I'm done." Kelly patted the documents on the table, then stretched out: "What about you?"
"I still have a few copies here, just wait a moment." Feilin replied: "Let's go to mother's place to find Dill first, and then go to see His Majesty."
"Why are you looking for Dill?" It seems that Kelly is a little dissatisfied with this arrangement: "I always go to her first."
"Dil is now my husband's fiancée. Since I don't have the status of a lady, I can't handle official business with us. It would be boring! If we all get to know each other early, I won't worry my husband... But speaking of it, His Majesty and Miss Berni really get along well."
Here!" Wen Sili also finished processing the official documents, stood up, turned around, saw me smiling by the door, and then whispered: "Cohen?"
"Cohen?" Kelly turned her head dubiously, and cheered when she saw me: "You're really back!"
"Of course it's me." I walked over with a smile: "You're surprised, aren't you?"
"What are you surprised about?" After a brief surprise, Kelly opened her eyes again: "You eavesdropped on us again!"
"It's not eavesdropping! It's just a coincidence." I held Wen Sili's hand: "Seeing that you are handling official business seriously, how can I interrupt it! Right Felin?"
"Eavesdropping is just a matter of eavesdropping, and you have to find excuses." Feilin stood up, with a bright smile on her face: "Okay, I have finished processing my official documents."
"Then let's go to mother's place!" I suggested: "Shall we go together?"
"No." It was really unexpected. Feilin refused: "You go to mother alone, and the three of us are going to father to discuss today's official business."
"Why?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood: "Then let's do it! We will meet at His Majesty's place later."
"Okay, let's go over then." Feilin dragged Kelly and Wensley away. Kelly and Wensley turned back and smiled at me as they walked.
Let me meet Dill alone first. Feline arranged it like this... I shook my head and walked down the stairs. It seemed that the situation was not good! Feline was already thinking about Dill. I had foreseen that they would join forces to deal with it.
My look.
Although I have known it before, this feeling has never been as strong as it is now... Feilin is a very commanding person. She likes to take everything into her own hands. It can even be said that her passion for power exceeds mine.
.
Kelly and Wensley have little pursuit in this regard, allowing Feline to take charge lightly. If she joins forces with Dill again...
I hope this ladies alliance will not be more difficult to deal with than the demon alliance.
But speaking of my mother, that’s another difficulty! My mother didn’t receive any news about what I was doing outside, but this time I took in a daughter-in-law. She must have felt that her authority was greatly affected.
In front of this great mother, my military and political achievements cannot be taken away from my merits...
Hey, it seems that a torture is inevitable...
"The greatest, greatest mother..." Throwing the helmet aside, I walked into the room bravely: "I'm back."
"What are you yelling about?" My energetic mother didn't give me a good look: "Why don't you come over and sit down!"
"Ah... yes, mother." I quickly walked over and sat down, with a flattering smile on my face and my hands hanging on my chest, acting like a... pet at home.
"Are you back?" My mother asked me calmly.
"Yes, I'm back."
"Are you willing to come back?" Mom smiled.
"Mother." I already had a bad feeling in my heart: "I have always been very good..."
But this violent mother ignored my kindness and turned against me faster than turning the page in a book. She grabbed my ears and asked loudly: "What's going on?"
"Well, is there no problem?" I accompanied Xing Xing and said to my mother: "Since this period of time, good news has been coming from the front line frequently, and our army is in great shape..."
"Poof!" With a sound, my noble, arrogant, smart and smooth head was knocked on the head. Even so, I still have to keep smiling... I can't be weird in front of my mother.
"Go tell your Majesty about the war on the front line, and discuss government affairs with your father. They must be looking forward to it." Mom pinched my nose instead: "What I'm asking you now is about your fiancée Dill Merlin. You
How can you leave a good girl to a ghost place like Wanpu? And it lasted two years!"
"Mom, please forgive me..." His nose was pinched, and the governor burst into tears: "I know I was wrong."
"When are you going to marry Dill?" My mother still didn't let go, and the hand holding the governor's nose was still moving slowly: "Where will the wedding be held? Who are the guests going to be invited?"
For the sake of my indispensable nose, the governor had to compromise: "Mom has the final say in everything... Oops!"
"You are smart." Mom let me go, with a helpless look on her face: "Since you have repeatedly begged me, and more importantly for Dill's sake, I will reluctantly take care of it for you."
What! He obviously planned to plot against me.
"Dil, Cohen is back." Mom shouted to the back room: "Come out!"
"Yes." After answering softly, Dill Merlin, dressed in casual clothes, walked out of the room with a faint smile on his shy face and his hair let down. He is so beautiful... No, Dill.
If I had been inside, wouldn’t she have known about the scene where the Governor was tortured just now?
My brain has almost lost the ability to think further…
"What are you doing standing there?" Mom saw that I hadn't moved for a long time, and then she got angry again: "Cohen, why don't you go out for a walk with your fiancée?"
"Ah... yes!" I begged with a grimace on my face: "But before that, mom, can you let me, a tired general, drink some water? I came back from the front line, tired, thirsty, hungry... plus...
My whole body is stiff!”
I drank all the water in the cup and took a long breath.
"I said mom, why are you torturing me like this?" I held my chin and asked my mom, "Am I not your son?"
"Who asked me to be your mother!" My mother smiled and glanced at me: "I can't control the war and government affairs, and I don't want to. Only in the matter of marrying a son can a mother's authority be reflected. This is my family's tradition.
Woolen cloth!"
"Authority..." I handed the water glass to Dill: "Dear, have another glass."
Dill, how did she win her mother's love? Women are really scary... (To be continued)
