"Did Denel lose?" The parchment in Overwell's hand slipped quietly. He grabbed it and regained his grip. He raised his head, showing a surprised look.
Princess Griffin on the side listened to the news calmly.
The result of a battle in the southern border was not announced at the first time, causing the defeat of Denel's army and making the surrounding areas silent for a while. The losses of the coalition forces were not great, and most of the personnel fled with the frightened mountain people.
, the army of the Grizzly Bear Territory was unscathed, and the real losses were only a few thousand noble soldiers from Grus and Pallas. However, the deaths of Pallas, Wei De, and Sir Grus made the entire southern territory a mess.
Whisper.
In this battle, countless nobles, big and small, were killed, two lords, and one was a retainer who was the confidant of Earl Denel. As a result, the power of Toni Geer and the northern region was completely wiped out, allowing Denel to fight even if he wanted to in a short time.
There is no way to organize another army to conquer the Fir Territory.
Unless he leads the army in person, but that is impossible. Which lord does not have enemies? Count Denel must always be on guard against his enemies taking advantage of the situation to attack. Especially at this time, everyone thinks that he is gone.
The teeth, even the insides, are starting to move.
Therefore, although Denel hated Brando so much that he gritted his teeth, he had to solve his own problem first before he could take action. And when he had time to take action, Brando felt that he did not need to be afraid of this at all.
Dude. His original purpose can be said to be at least half achieved at this moment.
At the end of the month of Winter Qin, when February flowers bloomed and the earth began to thaw, Eruin was discussing this war everywhere. But only the territory of Tonigel seemed deserted, and there were very few other parties participating in this war.
Talk about this war.
The Fir Territory also paid a heavy price during the war, especially the mercenaries who held back Jean Denel's army, and their numbers were reduced by more than half. Some veterans who had experienced the November War did not pay any tribute to that tragic event.
They bowed their heads in the war, but they slept on the banks of the Gris River. Their cemetery is now in a pine forest, as quiet as a poem.
But the shadow of the war was quickly washed away by the green wheat seedlings taken out of the fields after the ice and snow melted. One winter passed, and Warnd regained its vitality and vitality. Only then did people realize in disbelief that they had actually won.
Already.
"I actually won like this. I didn't even have time to go to the battlefield," Caglis sat on a bench without any aristocratic gesture, clasped his hands behind his head and looked at the dwarf Oldham and the Eruin royal family.
Forger Master Belu kept wandering around a pile of scrap copper and iron - at least in his opinion, it was scrap metal - just some tattered swords.
The most direct gain from this war is the large number of unloading and armor weapons abandoned by the noble army. These are the most lacking in the Fir Territory. Belu estimates that after remaking them, they can at least be fully armed with a force of three to four thousand people.
Army. This incident reminded Brando. He remembered that there was a bunch of messy things in his dimensional cave, which were all rags collected from the ruins in the Ring of Trade Winds, so he simply poured them out.
As a result, the blacksmith shop of Blacksmith Belu was almost overcrowded.
Of course, Beru was furious and directly took him and Caglis - because the training mission of the first phase of the White Lion Army's non-commissioned officers has come to an end for the time being, and the free boy has now almost replaced Akane's position as captain of the guard.
The sky followed him around - he was driven out of the house.
But a moment later, the kingdom's forging master ran out again, grabbed Brando's hand with gleaming eyes and asked: "Lord, where did you get those weapons? Are you not going to rob?"
A certain empire’s material warehouse, right?”
Brando threw away his hand angrily: "Do you think the empire's material warehouses are all public toilets, where you can go in when you want and get out when you want? Besides, even if it is a public toilet, you have to pay for entry and exit."
"Isn't that because you are the lord? People outside say that anything the lord wants to do is impossible. You see, the other leaders now call you 'Brando the miracle worker',"
The old man smiled and said: "But then again, what are public toilets?"
Brando frowned when he heard this, thinking who gave him such a vulgar title. Brando, who works miracles, sounded similar to the protagonists of those third-rate knight novels circulating on the market. He originally thought
At least he has a title like 'Wolf Shepherd' or something.
You must know that titles are very important to a person's reputation. For example, "Sir Wolf" Overwell, "Crosshand" Buga, others will know that it is more or less related to the person's character and personality.
It has something to do with ability. If a normal person is called a 'dead maggot', a 'bad toe' or something like that, Brando thinks it would be better to just find a pillar and hit him to death.
But Caglis's eyes lit up when he heard the title that he thought was vulgar. He couldn't help complaining: "Really, if I had known that I would come out with the lord, maybe I would also have a title."
"What title?"
"For example, the lord is called 'Brando who creates miracles'. Of course I dare not compete with the lord, so I will call him 'Caglis who follows Brando who creates miracles'." The young man thought for a moment.
, said seriously.
Brando staggered and almost fell to his knees. He immediately looked at the noble descendant of Eruin and the second son of Sir Mintai with a look of disdain. He couldn't help but feel worried about the future of the kingdom.
, I thought in my heart that this is all some kind of distorted aesthetics.
For the sake of his future captain of the Guards and the White Lions, he decided to correct the opponent's aesthetic attitude: "It's just a small fight. There will be plenty of opportunities to fight in the future. I just hope you won't complain about being too tired.
.”
"real?"
"Of course," Brando replied: "Our enemies are not only our own people, but also Madala. Madala did not even use their regular army in this war. Do you know why?"
"Madala didn't use regular troops?" Beru was lucky because he didn't experience the first Black Rose War in the dungeon, but Caglis had more or less heard about this war, and the young man couldn't help but
Eyes widened.
"Madara invaded Eruin because of domestic quarrels, uneven distribution of interests, the new emperor's rise to power, and turmoil between the government and the opposition. In order to divert internal conflicts, they expanded externally. In fact, the real war is just a legal plunder. If you hear the news,
They are just the nobles of those places." Brando replied seriously: "It's just that this expansion is an external manifestation of Madala's internal changes in the past ten years - the Black Jazz of Madala in front of us, Ince
Talon, who was supported by the Tagus family because of his talent, entered Eruin in search of capital to get on the front burner. Before that, he was just a local young man who had just inherited the territory."
"In this war, there are many young people like this in Madara, and Instaron is not the only one." This is the first time Brando seriously admits the threat of Madara to his subordinates.
, in fact, he knew that he was not alarmist.
Both Belu and Caglis took a breath of air: "How strong is the real Madara?"
"The main force of Madara's regular army is the black knights, dark crusaders, vampires and high-level corpse witches, especially the black knights and dark crusaders, who are the lower-level roles in Madara's regular army. Their strength is at least
Above the middle reaches of Silver, I generally call them third-level troops." Brando replied: "As for the high-level combat forces, there are bone dragons, revenge banshees, and blood seat lords. If Eruin relied on his strength when he founded the country,
The Temple Guards, the earliest White Lion Guards and the Knights of the Iron Horse founded by the late Lord Ek may still have the strength to fight, but now..."
Brando didn't say anything. In fact, Madala is not the most powerful force in the world yet. Whether it is the Cruz Empire, St. Osor, or Buga's craftsman wizards, they are stronger than this new dark empire.
Much more powerful.
At least Buga's gargoyle and gem dragon raid tactics were once rampant on the battlefield - Buga's sky is the sky of the world - such domineering words can only be uttered by craftsman wizards.
"It's a pity that the training methods of iron horse knights have long been lost." Master Beilu sighed: "Even the training methods of white lion infantry have been lost a lot compared to earlier years, and the combat effectiveness of the trained white lion infantry is also not as good as before.
Already."
Brando nodded. Of course he knew that the White Lion Infantry was an army that followed the ancestor Ek in all directions. Now it has been reduced to the point where it has to compete with the personal guards trained by Jean Denel. It cannot be said that it is not the case.
God's will. Eru was punished like this because he disobeyed the path of the late Lord Ek.
The Temple Guard is the product of the covenant between the Silver Elf and Eruin. It is said that Medissa is part of this product, but this covenant has long since disappeared. Even the Eruin people misinterpreted the sacred covenant without authorization, and therefore
This caused Martha's anger.
However, Eruin's intricate relationship with the Silver Elves and Wind Elves has allowed the kingdom to survive to this day. It was only Madala's invasion that made the world see Eruin's weakness. Therefore, after this battle, the kingdom
Gradually towards decline.
But that's all history.
Brando patted the shoulders of the two of them: "Don't be afraid, we can take our time, the kingdom is not without hope. The training method of the White Lion Infantry was lost in the war between the Korcova Dynasty and the Sifah Dynasty (*),
It is said that descendants of the Sifah royal family divided the method of training white lion infantry into three parts and brought them to the mausoleums in Menstro. We can go look for them when we have time."
(* Year of Summer, New Moon War)
Forging master Belu only thought that Brando was comforting him, but he did not know that what Brando said was true. The descendants of the Sifah royal family divided the training methods of the White Lion Infantry into three and gave them to the three at that time.
The prince and princess carried it, and one of the copies was recovered. Brando had definite information that the other copy was found in Menstro's mausoleums. As for the last copy, its whereabouts are really unknown.
The complete legend of the White Lion Infantry is a fourth-level unit, but if you collect two copies, you will have at least a third-level strength. Brando can also find a way to train the Iron Horse Knight. This is the advantage of time travel. In fact, now he
Now that we have our hands free, we need to start preparing for these things.
However, he first called Belu back to his senses and asked: "Master, the armor of those red flag cavalry is quite good. Can you think of ways to improve it?"
"Improvement?" The old man was puzzled: "Although the armor has a high defense, it is not suitable for heavy infantry. In particular, it only strengthens the defense against arrows, which is somewhat contrary to the concept of the White Lion Infantry."
"No, I plan to ask you to help modify it so that archers can wear it." Brando shook his head.
"Archer?" Bolu's eyes widened. He had never heard of anyone who was so extravagant that even the archers had to wear magic armor. That's not to say that archers are not valuable, but the position of archers is too far back.
Well, using magic armor on them is a bit too wasteful: "Isn't this too extravagant?"
"Not at all, what if they were wearing it?" Brando asked the old man to turn around and pointed to a few tall trees not far away, carrying long bows, shopping in the 'human world', looking around curiously.
Elf girl.
"Then..." Master Beilu couldn't say anything against this time.
Everyone knew that all elf archers were sharpshooters. But he couldn't imagine what it was like to be an archer wearing magic armor.
Because theoretically speaking, archers should pursue agility.
