Lord of Lowland

Chapter 369 The Visitor of the Blood Eagle Knights

Everyone heard that there was a big incident in the kingdom, and they were all taken aback. Seeing everyone in a daze, Cecil smiled: "Don't worry, things are beneficial to us. Prince Rex launched a coup. Now the old man King Hareton is dead, and the high priest Akria of the Temple of Dawn was also killed by High Priest Alonso, and Lord Alonso has become the high priest of the Temple of Dawn again. The temple and the kingdom want me It has also been lifted, and I have also been appointed as the earl in charge of the entire Samara province. My residence city has been ordered to be taken from this city of bones to the city of Raeira."

The news was so shocking that everyone hadn't reacted for a while, and when they did, they were all overjoyed.All of a sudden, everyone in the conference hall was beaming with joy.Only Kerian just smiled slightly, still frowning.

Cecil looked at Corin: "Uncle Corin, is there anything else on your mind?"

Corian said: "Lord Baron, oh no, it's time to call you Lord Earl. I think the leader of the Blood Eagle Knights, Grand Knight Bartley, is the political enemy of the current King Rex. It's not that easy. Follow the king's will to surrender the city and the territory to you. May I ask if the kingdom has sent any troops to help you accept the territory of Samara Province and to deter the Blood Eagle Knights and the great knight Bart? "

Cecil wondered how old Corian was, and he immediately saw the crux of the problem. He smiled and said, "No, the Kingdom didn't give us any troops. If the Blood Eagle Knights are determined not to obey the Great If the prince orders, we can only kill the Blood Eagle Knights by ourselves."

After hearing these words, the excited speech in the hall suddenly cooled down, and everyone realized that the changes in the upper echelon of the kingdom did not play a big role in the predicament here.

"Then what's the difference between us and before? Isn't it still the Blood Eagle Knights who are fighting us one-on-one? Our strength is too far behind this knights, and we will not be their opponents anyway." Rekel said angrily It was obvious that others were also deeply dissatisfied with King Rex's behavior.

"I don't think so." Cecil smiled and said, "Don't just think about the problem from your own perspective. We can think from the perspective of the Blood Eagle Knights. If I were Lord Bartley, I would be It can be said that you are riding a tiger between a rock and a hard place. You can't even defeat the small Bone Tooth City in front of you, and the entire kingdom you rely on in the back no longer provides support to you. The most terrifying thing is what should you do? Betray the second prince you have always relied on. , or do you want to continue to confront the eldest prince and the entire kingdom? If you were Knight Bartleda, you would probably go crazy." Cecil said easily.

"More importantly, the composition of the Blood Eagle Knights is actually very complicated. Most of the knights under Bartlett are not his direct descendants. Many officers and generals are the children of other nobles. Most of their families are here. They have already chosen to support King Rex in the coup. Do you think they will allow Grand Knight Bartley to continue to resist?" Cecil continued.

"So we still have a lot of favorable conditions. If this great knight really goes all the way to the black, he should continue to strengthen his offensive against us now, because only by taking Bone Tooth City quickly can we turn around without any worries. To fight against the pressure of the king in the south, otherwise our Bone and Tooth City will always be like a thorn in their body, but they have suspended the offensive? Why? It must be that they knew the news a day earlier than you yesterday, in order to prevent the army from being turbulent , So this great knight stopped attacking, for this great knight, internal instability is actually more important than eliminating us." Cecil said with a smile.

Cecil's analysis was so sensible that everyone couldn't help but nod slightly after hearing it.Even Corian couldn't help but relax the frown on his face.Cecil asked everyone to disperse, leaving only Corian. Corian reported to Cecil on the operation of Bone Tooth City for a while. The trade with the Orc Empire was actually very smooth, especially with Cecil. The goods that Syl brought back from the Great Swamp were very welcome in both the Orc Kingdom and the Human Kingdom. The caravans established in the middle were also very popular. The trade in the entire Bone Tooth City was also very developed. However, it was a pity that the war broke the All of this was changed by the siege by the Blood Eagle Knights half a month ago. Fortunately, there was no shortage of food in the city, otherwise there would have been a real crisis.

Cecil frowned when he saw this. It seems that the matter with the Blood Eagle Knights must be resolved as soon as possible. Now with the newly recruited 200 soldiers, he has less than 500 soldiers, and they are all untrained recruits. , no matter what, they cannot compete with the powerful forces of the Blood Eagle Knights. Although Cecil is confident that his personal strength is extremely powerful, and he can definitely defeat even a strong man at the level of a demon lord, Cecil does not have a demon lord. That kind of powerful group attack skill.It's not like Sandro can summon countless cannon fodder.If you want to fight 5000 people, it will always be a bit advantageous.

When Cecil was worrying, he wanted to discuss with Corian how to defeat the Blood Eagle Paladins in front of him, and get in touch with the swamp tribe on the other side of the Great Border. If they could borrow troops, he could give them What do they get paid.Suddenly Rekel came to report that two officers from the Knights of the Blood Eagle had come to the City of Bone and Teeth, and they had something important to discuss with Cecil.Cecil was stunned for a moment, really thinking about something.

"Let them in quickly!" Cecil hurriedly invited the two people who claimed to be the Knights of the Blood Eagle to come in. Both officers looked very young, both in their twenties.They all have pure blond hair, one has long hair and one has short hair. They are both handsome, handsome and very good-looking.

"Hello, Baron Cecil. I'm Bartol, the Knight Commander of the Blood Eagle Knights, and this is my companion, Ewald, who is also the Knight Commander of the Blood Eagle Knights." Er said.The so-called knight commander is the junior officer of the knight commander. Generally speaking, 100 knights will have a knight commander. Generally speaking, this position is also a step for young nobles to climb up.And the two right now are very suitable for their status. Cecil looks at these two people, just like the young nobles who came here to be gilded.
