"Yes!" McGarrett stood in front of the window, looking up at the gradually whitening eastern sky, and said worriedly: "This campaign to encircle and suppress the northern border has failed. I don't know what His Majesty Emperor Paul will do with me after returning to the imperial capital.
Oh! Today's Prime Minister Cole and the Steve family have taken this opportunity to gradually develop, and it seems that our Tracy family is getting harder and harder to survive in front of His Majesty Emperor Paul, and is becoming more and more irrelevant."
The commander of the 3rd Corps, Jokoqi, and the commander of the 4th Corps, Watson, looked at each other and remained silent. They knew that McGarrett's concerns were justified. The Tracy family was now deteriorating, which was in sharp contrast.
What is more important is the rapid prosperity of the Steve family. Now among the ten major corps, the main cavalry of the Tracy family's second corps, third corps, and fourth corps have been wiped out. After returning to the imperial capital, his life will definitely be better.
Even more difficult, and even less valued by His Majesty Emperor Paul.
While McGarrett, the commander of the Third Corps Jokoci, and the commander of the Fourth Corps Watson were worried about the future fate of the Tracy family, Hesso and a group of his cronies were also working hard to capture Mustache.
Staff officer Rorenbeck was worried about the matter. Captain Shamanlov and Captain Black Crow had already sent out all their subordinates, but after searching for a whole night, they still could not find any trace of Rorenbeck, as if he
It has disappeared out of thin air, as if it had escaped from Beifeng City!
"This is impossible! I have carefully asked the city gate guards, and they have not let anyone leave Beifeng City!" Captain Shamanlov reported to Heisuo very firmly, and the captain of Black Crow Squadron beside him
He also agreed with conviction and said: "My subordinates also believe that this person is still hiding in Beifeng City. Our shadow guards are best at sneaking in secretly, but under this situation, our shadow guards cannot leave Beifeng."
Cheng, how could he, an important staff member of the First Corps known to everyone, leave quietly by himself?"
Heisuo sat at the table, holding his chin with one hand, looking at Captain Shamanlov and Captain Black Crow, and asked lightly: "Since you think no one can escape from Beifeng City, then this one is called Loren
Where is Baker's guy hiding? Why can't he find it for so long?" Captain Shamanlov and Captain Black Crow looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Apparently they felt powerless and unable to make a comparison.
Come with a reasonable explanation.
"Lord Blackso!" Hizō Akihito, a warrior from the East Island Kingdom who had been standing behind Blackso, said: "Why don't we also search for this guy named Lorenbeck! We are proficient in the ninja skills of tracking down the Yueming family.
, it may be helpful to search for this person!”
"That's fine!" Heisuo nodded in agreement, turned to Hizou Akihito and said, "You cooperate with Captain Black Crow's subordinates, and leave Miss Ryoko to me to protect her temporarily!"
"Yes!" Hizou Akihito and other twelve Eastern Island warriors followed Captain Black Crow and Captain Shamanlov to say goodbye. Black Suo and Saint Ryoko stood side by side at the window, watching them from a distance, chatting:
"This guy named Lorenbeck is vicious. He easily framed General Eisenhower, commander of the First Corps, with just a few words. However, I guess his original target was still Marshal McGarrett, but we accidentally defeated him.
Because of his conspiracy, his plan failed to achieve the expected goal!"
Saint Ryoko agreed very much with Hesso's analysis. She smiled and said softly: "Who will be the biggest beneficiary of this matter? Who wants to get rid of Marshal McGarrett? For yourself
How about getting more benefits?"
Black Suo closed his eyes and thought hard for a while before opening his eyes and said: "The biggest beneficiaries of this matter are undoubtedly the Steve family and Prime Minister Cole! After the fall of Marshal McGarrett, the Tracy family suffered a lot.
The biggest blow is that Milodil alone cannot fight against Prime Minister Cole, so I think this Lorenbeck is most likely a secret spy sent by the Steve family."
"What you are saying makes sense!" Saint Ryoko looked at Heisou with admiration and said with a smile: "General Eisenhower has always been a member of the neutral faction. Lorenbeck incited him to deal with Marshal McGarrett, regardless of success or failure.
It will not endanger Prime Minister Cole, so I also think that this Lorenbeck is a secret spy of the Steve family lurking in the First Corps."
Heisuo was in a good mood after figuring out the origin of Rolenbeck. He stretched, walked back to the table, sat down and rested, and said: "Prime Minister Cole's hand is stretching longer and longer. Now
Marshal McGarrett's defeat in the Wilderness Plains gave him an excellent opportunity to take over the throne and overthrow the Tracy family. It is estimated that after we return to the imperial capital, Marshal McGarrett and Lord Milo's life will be even more difficult.
And as subordinates of the Tracy family, we may have to suffer the same misfortune as our master and face the oppression and persecution of Prime Minister Cole and the Steve family."
Saint Ryoko moved lightly, walked to the table, poured tea and water for Heisuo, and sighed deeply: "The situation in your Black Dragon Empire seems to be more complicated than that of our East Island Kingdom. It is obvious that you have strong enemies around you.
You have established a large number of people, but you are still fighting among yourself and fighting for power. Aren't you afraid of being invaded by foreign enemies? Will the country be destroyed? "
Heisuo took the cup casually and replied calmly: "This kind of thing is not something that small people like me can worry about! I just want to get promoted and make a fortune after returning to the imperial capital, so that my position in the military can be upgraded to another level!"
Female Ryoko shut her mouth and didn't say anything more. She knew that Heisuo's goal was far more than that, and what he just said was just what he said casually.
About two hours later, Hizou Akihito, Captain Black Crow, and Captain Shamanlov came back together with ugly faces. They brought a piece of news that shocked Heisuo.
Lorenbeck, a mysterious mustached staff member, had actually been killed, and his body was brought back by the remaining warriors of the East Island Kingdom and placed in the yard outside the Black Soil Gate.
"Who killed this guy?" Heisuo came to the courtyard and carefully inspected Rolenbeck's body. His mind was full of questions. Rolenbeck's body was as cold as ice and his skin was purple.
, and even showed signs of decay in some parts. It was obvious that he had died for more than a day or two, and he was definitely not someone who had just died.
"It's so strange!" Captain Shamanlov lowered his head to inspect the body of Lorenbeck at his feet, and said with great surprise: "We clearly saw this man last night, why does his body seem to have been already gone?"
What about people who have been dead for a long time?" Captain Black Crow, Hizou Akihito and other warriors looked at each other and had no words to answer. Their hearts were filled with the same questions as Captain Shamanlov, so they couldn't tell Lorenbeck at all.
Explain the strange death phenomenon and give a more reasonable answer.
"Does this guy know the art of resurrection from the dead?" Saint Ryoko, who was curious and insisted on running out to watch, looked horrified and hid behind Heisuo with some fear. Heisuo frowned and looked at Luo Lun blankly.
Baker's face remained for a long time before he spoke with difficulty, and said indifferently: "I don't believe there is any way to resurrect the dead in this world. Judging from this guy's body, his death time should be about a week. If it weren't for the north wind,
The climate in the city is cold and the body is damaged slowly. It is estimated that his body has already completely decomposed and become unrecognizable!"
Captain Shamanlov raised his gaze, looked at Hesso and asked, "Then is the Lorenbeck we saw last night a human or a ghost? I even drank and worked with him before!" Hesso's body
He trembled slightly, and suddenly thought of Gabriel, the beast king who could transform into the appearance of Minos, the King of the North. However, he firmly believed that no one could use the King Sword of Minos, the King of the North.
I was so angry that I didn't want to die, so I quickly threw this idea away without expressing it.
"Perhaps there is another person who can also use the art of transformation. After transforming into Rolenbeck, he deliberately fanned the flames of General Eisenhower and provoked him to murder Marshal McGarrett in order to achieve some goal he wanted!
"This is the only reasonable explanation that Hesso can come up with at the moment. Rolenback's behavior has already become very abnormal, so there is a great possibility that he is an impostor, and his true identity has been quietly killed by the pretender.
, turned into a lifeless, cold corpse.
On December 1, 203 in the Gregorian calendar of the Black Dragon Empire, McGarrett, the contemporary patriarch of the Tracy family, finally joined forces with the leader of the third corps, Jokoqi, the commander of the fourth corps, Watson, Damian Hesso, and five hundred disguised soldiers.
Under the protection of the crow shadow guards who became imperial soldiers, they returned to the imperial capital Black Pearl, which they had left for a year. The day was cloudy and the air pressure was very low. Just like McGarrett's mood at this time, he was full of uneasiness and incomparable anxiety.
The feeling of haze!
After receiving the news in advance, the only people who rushed to greet McGarrett near the city gate were his brother Milodil, sister Tracy Sydney, and some direct members of the Tracy family, who had always favored McGarrett.
Emperor Paul IV was nowhere to be seen, clearly expressing his disappointment and indifference to McGarrett and the entire Tracy family.
"It's good to come back safely!" Milodil and Tracy Sydney were very excited and stepped forward to hug each other with their brother McGarrett. The three brothers and sisters showed their true feelings and shed tears, expressing their longing for each other after not seeing each other for many days.
bitter!
McGarrett turned his eyes, looked around at the sparse Tracy family members who came to greet him, and said sadly with emotion: "It seems that His Majesty Emperor Paul no longer wants to support our Tracy family.
The main responsibility for this defeat lies with me, so it is no wonder that His Majesty the Emperor is so angry and extremely disappointed with me!"
"You can't say that!" Mirodil smiled bitterly and comforted his brother McGarrett and said: "The reason for this defeat was that the orc army suddenly attacked and drew away the coalition forces from various countries. Brother
You are alone on the battlefield and fighting alone, how can you defeat the invincible King of the North Minos and the 100,000 Northern Army!"
McGarrett let out a long sigh, showing an expression like a hero at the end of his life, and said angrily: "Having said that, after all, I am the commander of the coalition forces! Since I was unaware of the combat intentions of Minos, the King of the North,
That's why the army was defeated like a mountain on the battlefield in the wilderness plain. This responsibility cannot be shied away no matter how you explain it. Even if His Majesty Emperor Paul cares about old friendship and does not pursue the case, I am afraid that Prime Minister Cole and the Steve family will not
If you miss this opportunity, you will definitely try your best to make a big fuss to bring me down!"
Milodil has served in the court for a long time, so he can certainly understand his brother McGarrett's concerns, but the situation has become difficult to control, and the entire Tracy family has fallen into an unprecedented difficult situation!
"Oh! Let's not talk about it for now! Let's wait until we see His Majesty Emperor Paul before we can think of another strategy!" McGarrett held the little hand of his sister Tracy Sydney very gently, looked at her carefully for a while and said with a smile: "Many days
No, sister Xueli, you have grown up! During the period when the eldest brother was away, did you listen to the second brother and honestly protect the property of our Tracy family? "
Tracy Sydney raised her pretty and cute little face, forced out a smile and said: "Of course my sister will listen to my second brother! Don't worry, brother, with my sister sitting in the imperial capital, no one can take away our Tracy."
Any property of the Xi family!”
"That's great!" McGarrett nodded lightly and said with a slightly comforting smile: "As long as our family can still control the economic lifeline of the empire, then Prime Minister Cole and the Steve family will never try to defeat us and replace us in the empire.
An important position in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Brother is right!" Mirodil's eyes flashed, and he echoed with confidence: "Although our family's main cavalry force has suffered huge losses, with the human and financial resources of our Tracy family, we can survive in less than half a year.
Then we can recover and form a stronger and more powerful elite cavalry regiment!"
"That's right!" McGarrett stretched out his hands, clapped vigorously, trying to boost the morale of all the Tracy family members around him, and said proudly: "Don't be depressed, everyone. The current low period is only temporary. As long as all the members of our family can
If people can unite and work hard, they will be able to make a comeback in the future and defeat any enemy who dares to challenge our Tracy family!"
"I will obey the orders of the Patriarch!" Hundreds of direct members of the Tracy family agreed in unison, their eyes glowing brightly again, obviously having been affected by the short few moments between McGarrett and Milodil.
This conversation ignited fighting spirit and once again filled us with confidence and hope for the future.
