Black Knight From Blue Star

Chapter 87: Planning for the Country

 Leonard’s smile was very proud and crazy.

 The beautiful features have become distorted.

 Finally recovered from that gaffe, Leonard wiped his tears and said with a smile: "Death well, death well. Hardy, I owe you a favor, and I will definitely repay it in the future."

Hardy didn’t take it seriously.

Speaking between the nobles, always three points and seven points fake. On the surface, no one knows what he wants to do in his back.

"I took note of what you said, and now you can take two or three people back." Hadi smiled: "But this army has to stay, and they have to pay a ransom."

 Leonard rubbed his face and said, "It has to be cheaper."

 Generally speaking, the real valuables among prisoners of war are nobles, while army prisoners are only small heads, unless there are a large number of them.

Hadi thought for a while and said: "As a friendly price, just bring me fifty gold coins."

 “Thank you very much.”

Hearing the ransom price, Leonard couldn't help but pat Hardy's shoulder lightly.

 This is indeed a very favorable price.

And Hadi also exempted himself from the high ransom as a noble.

 “But you also have to do two things for me.”

 “You said it.” Leonard nodded vigorously.

“Tell your father when you go back. I’m a little cheaper with the prisoners of your Lion Faction. Later, a group of people should be brought over from your fiefdom.”

Leonard looked stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Awesome, it is great luck for the Jeanna family to get you."

“In addition, if you, the Lion Faction, want the prisoners of the Royal Guards, the price can be slightly higher.”

Leonard was a little puzzled at first: "What does the Royal Guards have to do with our Lion family... Hiss, your plan is too vicious."

“It’s not vicious. The three of you openly say that you want to unite, but secretly you are very vicious with Ms. Ainolin’s hands.”

Leonard's expression was a little confused.

He actually knew this a long time ago. When the three families made this plan, he was still very excited, thinking that the Jeanna family would be very pitiful after being deceived.

 The result...tragedy.

Seeing his awkward expression, Hardy stopped provoking him and continued, "You'd better leave this matter alone. It's up to your father to decide whether you want to take this bait or not. You'd better not say anything."

Leonard's expression immediately became solemn and he said, "I understand."

 “Okay, you can go.”

Leonard hesitated for a while, then said sheepishly: "Can you give me a horse..."

 A few minutes later, Leonard left with three servants.

 The reason why Hadi let him go was mainly to sell favors to his mother.

 There is no benefit in offending a powerful female magician.

 Besides, she is still a student of E.P.R. Hardy also wants to have a good relationship with her and get more magic theory and knowledge.

Hadi then settled in the highlands.

The gate of the royal city is closed, and Hadi knows that he can't get in now.

 So if he wants to negotiate with the royal family, he needs more chips.

 The royal family is now the biggest enemy of the Jeanna family. In order to compete with the royal family, both the Lion Faction and the Two-Headed Dragon Faction can unite.

 But the prerequisite for unity is to respect the Jeanna family.

 Therefore, it is even more important to hurt them first.     Then give sweet dates.

 In the evening, someone from the station was sent to inform: Grand Duke Dora was awake.

Hadi chose Malok as the temporary commander here, and then quickly rushed to the Silver Wing Knights' station with more than a dozen cavalry.

 When Hardy arrived at the coach's tent, he saw that Dora had already sat up.

 Although his face looked very bad and his face was as yellow as paper, he did wake up.

When he saw Hadi, he first showed a grateful smile, and then said: "Hadi, thank you for turning the tide at the critical moment and preserving the most important army of our Jeanna family."

Hadi came over, bowed and saluted, and said: "I am also a member of the Jeanne family now, so I should do what I should do."

 “How is the situation at home now?” Dora couldn’t help but ask.

Hadi shook his head: "I don't know. The royal family has sealed the entire royal city."

 “Wouldn’t that be...” Dora is that kind of pessimist.

He can't help but think about the worst aspects of anything.

Victor also looked very nervous.

Hardy shook his head and said: "I don't think the problem is big. Before I came out, I had already stationed my army at the manor. The castle has the advantage of terrain, and there are nearly a hundred dead soldiers from the Jeanna family. More than 300 people rely on the manor and the castle. , even if surrounded by one or two thousand people, it can last for ten days and a half. "

Dora breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope so."

Hadi continued: "And the fact that the royal family has not opened the city gate until now means that they have not completed their planned tactical purpose. Time is on our side."

 “Hardy, what should we do now?” Dora asked with a sad face.

 At this time, there were already several captains and corps commanders on standby in the coach's tent.

They all found it a bit incredible when they saw the coach actually asking a junior about his future course of action.

But when I thought of Hardy's appearance as the Nightmare Knight, and then thought of Hardy's heroic appearance when he led them to charge, there was no objection at all.

"It's very simple, just fight a tough battle." Hardy said with a smile: "Clear the territories of the Lion Faction and the Two-Headed Dragon Faction first, and extract as many resources as you can, so that they can bleed a lot of blood and nourish themselves. We ourselves can’t let them die.”

Dora was a little confused, but she still nodded pretendingly.

Hadi ignored whether he understood or not and continued: "Then we will give them some sweeteners to win them over to our side."

 “What’s the point of this?”

Hardy looked at Dora with some confusion. He didn’t understand such a simple thing?

He scratched his head and said: "It's very simple. The old king should be dying soon and has only a few years to live. After this incident happened again, he must be so angry that he can't sleep well every day. I estimate that within a year or two at most, he will You have to perish."

Hearing this, Dora finally understood. His eyes gradually widened like two round bells: "You mean..."

“How many years has it been since the Jeanne family sat on that throne?” Hadi smiled and said, “It’s time for another queen.”

 “Sissi will be the queen?”

Dora felt ridiculous at first, but after the imaginary picture came into his mind, his body couldn't help but tremble.

Victor feels the same way.

 The captains in the coach's tent, as well as the confidants of Jeanna's family, all looked excited.

If the Jeanna family can sit on the throne, then more titles can be conferred.

 And these descendants of loyal vassals who have followed the Jeanne family for two to three hundred years, can they also move up?
