Because Mariana blocked all the troops on the western side of Obstar, Seys, who divided the army into two, faced the strong combination of Obstar's main force + northern mercenaries. , and only admit to kneeling.

After all, under the premise of not being able to activate the magician, Cantero's military equipment and magic items are far inferior to Obstar's support, so Seyes still can't find a way to reverse the situation of the battle. We can only take advantage of the running-in problem between the enemies to gain a respite for the exhausted Cantero army.

"Haven't the troops in the east received a request for reinforcements?" Seyes has seen the worst of the situation, so facing Obsta's pressing, he calmed down instead, and then tried his best to hold back the anger that appeared A high-spirited Obstite.

As for those northern mercenaries...

If Seyes remembers correctly, they charge per head, so the more "human ears" you bring back, the more bounties you receive.

"We haven't received a reply from the troops on the east side yet, and we are probably being held back by the Obsidas." A messenger replied profusely: "Actually, before you asked, we had already sent a letter to the troops on the east side." Troops sent out a distress call and it was just..."

The embarrassment on the messenger officer's face made Seyes' heart a little cold.In fact, he also knew that anyone who saw the overwhelming Obstas and northerners would subconsciously shake their legs for a second, and then think about calling for help and retreating.

It's a pity that Seys has blocked his own future and Cantero's national destiny. If he shrinks at the door at this time, it will only achieve Mariana's reputation and his own infamy.

But for a proud king, it was an easy task to accept his defeat, not to mention that the person who defeated him was Mariana, the ex-fiancée whom Seyes personally sent away.

Even if he has not tasted the bitterness of failure now, as long as he thinks of this scene, he will feel an unprecedented insult, so that after some rational and emotional entanglements, Seyes gave the latter the upper hand: "No, we can't Returned empty handed..."

Seyes looked at the messenger officer who was hesitant to speak, and said word by word: "Cantero can't keep failing, otherwise we will be tamed as lackeys of Obstar sooner or later. Your Excellency, would you like to Do you see this tragedy?"

The messenger seemed to be infected by Seyes' words, and the worry on his face gradually turned into hesitation about the future of the country.

It is no exaggeration to say that Cantero is almost overdrawing his country's lifespan.If this adventure can win the homeland that Obstar took from Cantero and inspire the fighting spirit of the Cantero people, then what Seyes gambled will be returned multiple times, and even in the In the next negotiation, he blackmailed Obstar severely.

It's a pity that his plan is close to perfection, but in the process of implementation, too many accidents happened.

If none of King Obstar's three children died in the chaos in Wangcheng, and King Obstar was not burnt and made it difficult to bear the responsibility of the country, then Seyes is confident that he can win against an opponent who is not very smart .

As for the Duchy of Britannia and the Grand Duchy of Aquique... Anyway, there are three children of King Obstar, and the Grand Duchess of Aquique and Marianne are not interested in making wedding dresses for others, so Seyes is not interested. Worried that he would face Obstar who had allies.

However, the reality is so unflattering.

King Obstar's legal successors all died in the rebellion in the royal city, and the king himself was kicked out of power by the unbearable imperial council, and instead supported Seyes's former fiancée.

Well!Since the situation of the battle was unfavorable, Seyes took advantage of Obsta's power transfer and asked the Pope to intervene, forcibly ending the war between Obsta and Cantero under the guise of a "Saint Parade".

As a result, when the Pope was about to approve the "Parade of the Holy Maiden", Abella caused a major event that was enough to stop the Papal State.

Seyes: ...all pig teammates.

"I guess Cantero's troops in the east were either wiped out by the Obsidas, or the news channel was cut off by Mariana." Seyes, who was impatient, took a deep breath, trying to maintain the surface calm: "Of course, it's also possible that Mariana used the intelligence to scare off Cantero's troops in the east, but..."

Seyes thought about the people he sent to lead the troops in the east, and suddenly came up with a guess that shocked him.

Perhaps Mariana had seen through his plan long ago, and even anticipated who he would send to lead the troops to the east, and how that person would react when intelligence was inconvenient.

But how on earth did Mariana figure this out?

Seyes tried hard to recall Mariana's behavior in Cantero—whether in public or privately, Marianne seemed quite low-key, and she didn't even impress Seyes.

Because this fiancée is so worry-free that Seys doesn't worry much about her being an outsider, especially the granddaughter who is hated by the Cantero people, and will suffer injustice in the court.

Even if someone from Cantero asked Mariana to get out of Cantero by name in public, the latter did not show any displeasure, but remained humble and low-key as always, leading the ladies of the court to conduct charity cause.

Over time, the Canteros didn't seem to hate Marianna that much.

After all, although Mariana is the granddaughter of Queen Obsta, she is still from Aquique in name, and she is a few years younger than Seyes, so those people who asked Mariana to get out of Cantero I am also ashamed to continue insulting a little girl, and even after Seys and Marianna broke off their engagement, they will still miss this Princess Karda who is neither humble nor overbearing.

Especially those noble ladies who made good friends with Mariana.

As the daughter of the Grand Duchess of Aquique, Marianna has some of the free and easy Aquique people in her body.Even in Cantero, where there is a strong religious atmosphere, this suppressed freedom and unrestraint still makes those breathless ladies envy, and at the same time, there is a hint of jealousy.

However, Mariana is too good at being a human being, so those noble ladies who were jealous of her, under Mariana's deliberate guidance, felt pity for a little girl who was thousands of miles away from home and was not fully accepted by the Cantero people.

Now it seems that this pity is precisely what Mariana has, the biggest weapon, which gives her the opportunity to find out everything about Cantero bit by bit in her daily life, so that in today's confrontation between the two armies, Mariana He knows Seis well, but Seis doesn't know what kind of person his ex-fiancee is.

"She did it beautifully." Seyes, who was in a daze for no reason, suddenly said something out of his head, which confused the messenger and said: "Your Majesty, do you have a new order?"

"...No, I'm just thinking about Mariana." Seyes realized that there was something wrong with his expression just after he finished speaking, so he pretended to be unintentional and said, "My current enemy is Mariana...no matter what others believe or No, I both thought I was meeting the wrong enemy at the wrong time."

"..." The messenger didn't understand why Seyes' mood had changed so much, but he still asked Seyes in line with his duty, "What are you going to do now?"

After all, the harder the Obsters counterattacked, the more disadvantaged the Cantero people would be in the subsequent negotiations.

If Seyes' attack on Obstar was a big gamble, then now it is a small gamble on the timing of the "retreat".

If he wins the bet, he may keep most of the battle results, but if he loses the bet, he has to take the initiative to admit defeat.

"Wait a little longer! Maybe Lord Rodriguez can get the news from Odin that we are attacking the Obsters."

For some reason, when Seyes said this, Mariana's smiling face and a very soft "you lost" came to his mind.

........................

"Your Highness, as you expected, Cantero's troops in the east are marching west."

Just as Mariana was trying her best to search for traces of the black account, and even brought in King Obstar's valet and Prince Liam's old ministers for questioning, another incident came from the front that forced her to put aside the matter at hand. information.

"are you sure"

Abigail could hear the uncontrollable excitement in Marianne's voice, and even the face of the other party showed the excitement and anticipation that the child was about to get candy.

"It's absolutely true." The attendant who sent the order didn't know why Mariana was happy, but he knew very well that if Mariana was happy, he would have a reward to take, so he also became happy: "It is estimated that we will arrive in Obsta in less than a day." On the south centerline."

"Very good." Mariana clenched her hands, almost creaking her finger bones: "Let the captain of the garrison take all the members to intercept Cantero's marching east troops, remember not to be tough, just break up their formation, and then use their geographical advantage to weaken their forces as much as possible."

In the immediate aftermath of the war, Mariana would not care about the lives of the Cantero people without a heart attack.Even though she knew how hypocritical she was, she still had to issue cruel orders for the interests of the Obsidians and the stability of her own position.

"Yes." The attendant in charge of delivering the order didn't think there was anything wrong with Mariana's order, and even felt that a lord who was willing to consider the casualties of soldiers in a war would really arouse the favor of the Obsidians.

After the attendant who delivered the message left, Marianne sat back in her seat, and then continued to sort out the evidence she "collected" from King Obstar, and asked Abigail by the way: "Where is Oster?" Is there any news about rich merchants in the south? There must be some people who are greedy for life and afraid of death among them."

"It has been there for a long time, but in view of the current situation, Lena and some northern nobles of Obstar detained them with Madam Christina."

Because most of Obstar's old, weak, sick and disabled retreated to the north and the Grand Duchy of Aquique, those southerners who fled also had to seek asylum from the northern nobles, especially Mrs. Christina.

It is conceivable how Mrs. Christina will react to these people who have benefited from the North.
