Lords of Ten Counties

Anfei fiddled with her purple hair and said with a sweet smile: "If the official position is too low, wouldn't being an envoy to Di Yili become very shabby?"

　　"Being an envoy to Di Yili?!"

　　I smiled . He didn't say anything, just looked out the window at the scenery like water passing by. Amy and Li An said, "Look at me." Anfei, on the other hand, looked like she already knew. As expected of a clan of obscene demons, Anfei was able to play the Yimelu Shang clan to such an impressive level in five years that she could fly into the sky and escape from the earth. Her intelligence and ability had surpassed that of her parents.

　　I asked Anfei: "Chief Anfei, what is the last military information you received from the country?"

　　"The Battle of Gaia can be said to be the most serious conflict between Dielei and our country in the past 20 years after the signing of the "Ten Thousand Years Peace Treaty". Military conflict. Thirteen thousand soldiers were killed in Diyili in one night, not counting the losses of military expenses, horses and magic bullet vehicles. Therefore, they have deployed heavy troops on the border.

　　The atmosphere in the western part of our country is also very tense. Among the five major armies of the empire. In addition to the White Wolf Army, some of the Black Dragon Army and the Golden Lion Army, plus local guards, totaling 250,000 troops, are stationed at the border to guard against Di Yili's invasion. " "

　　The clan leader is right. In fact, both countries have no intention of going to war, but the atmosphere cannot be relaxed due to the heavy deployment of troops. Now Di Yili is waiting for us to send envoys to gradually reduce the number of envoys to normal levels. ．In addition to the core characters of the battle, who else is there? In fact, as long as you think carefully, you can understand the reason why Tianshu, the commander-in-chief, took the risk to sneak into the empire." I laughed while talking. Others had mixed reactions.

　　Just after the war, sending Di Yili as an envoy was not a safe mission. Amy first said: "Even if there is a need to go on an mission, being promoted to Viscount and Admiral should be enough, so why do you want to get married?"

　　"Amy, are you jealous... Wow!"

　　Amy said The kick hit me "half an inch above and half an inch below", and the pain made me cry. However, Lily, who was my guard, refused to save me. Women are really difficult to understand.

　　But Anfei smiled and smoothed things over: "Whether you are getting married or not is of great significance. You can ask the Baron for the details. Hey."

　　"The clan leader really knows how to joke. Alas, it's not because of a joke made by the eighth mother-in-law Ai Shanna."

　　Everyone immediately It suddenly dawned on me that Willy VI wanted to marry me to that princess. The reason was that he had received intelligence from the battlefield that day and knew that Di Yili had intended to use Asana to seduce me. He was afraid that a pervert like me would be seduced. , so we have to fight poison with poison, and strike first is the strongest.

　　Willy VI understands me, and even I don't have the confidence to be able to withstand Elsana's human flesh offensive. You beautiful woman from the obscene clan, looking at the stunning beauty Anfei opposite me, I wonder if that man doesn't want to get his hands on her for fun.

　　Lily said quietly: "No wonder the master wants to organize the Flame Dragon Knights. It turns out there is this reason."

　　Anfei frowned and said: "The Flame Dragon Knights?"

　　I knew I couldn't hide it from Anfei, so I said calmly: "That's it . The three hundred knights outside are also my trump card. I only return to the imperial capital once in five years. I can't go back empty-handed without bringing some gifts to Horus. "

　　"Humph, Sir, this is An. The gift Fei gave you may be helpful to you." Anfei handed me a letter and I put it away without opening it.

　　"Master... you seem to hate that person named Herus." Lily asked me without knowing why. I snorted and turned away.

　　This time, even Anfei and Liandao were in a state of silence. Amy looked at me and then carefully explained: "Five years ago, Prime Minister Herus replaced the third young master with the city lord Fei Benli who died in the battle. In addition to this, he also wanted to

　　force the third young master to marry her. The young lady was from a wealthy family in the south, and because her family did not dare to offend the most powerful Horus camp, she was forced to marry Paulian, the second son of Horus.

　　． I swear to the sky that I will come back to marry you, and this magic light ring is the proof.)

　　Holding my cheek gently, my eyes stayed on the scenery outside the window, but there were old things that lingered in my mind. The time I attended Tao Yalila Academy was just a boring period for me. At that time, the north was still in decline, and high-ranking students like me who preferred the north were often ostracized. The only happy memory I have is of Sitris. .

　　Sitris. Bell was my classmate in the same class. He came from a wealthy family in the south and studied history, economics and politics. At that time, she was the only girl who was close to me and the first woman I fell in love with.

　　It's a pity that Horus took a fancy to her wealthy family, and he also wanted to shave off my family's eyebrows. When I was transferred to the north to resist the orc army, he proposed marriage to her family for his son. She once sent me a distress letter, but at that time I was leading a group of young volunteers to sneak abroad and sneak attack the base camp of the orcs.

　　How ironic that when I won the battle, the woman I loved most was already a woman.

　　As a result, this ordinary marriage caused an uproar because of my overnight fame. Millions of people in the north were impressed by the self-sacrifice of the young army to repel the orc army, and they complained to the imperial capital about Horus's unjust behavior. The lords of the other ten counties also Dissatisfied with the fact that the prime minister looked down on the northerners and did not send troops to relieve them, an unprecedented joint effort was made. Eleven territories lowered the flag of Wurost on the same day, which almost led to a split and civil strife.

　　In the end, Willy VI forcibly sent the Black Dragon Army and my father intervened, and the matter was temporarily settled. However, from that year on, the ten lords and I no longer went to the imperial capital to report on our duties. The royal family's power existed in name only in the north, and both the north and the south also Thus, we entered the age of struggle, which also gave rise to the birth of me, the Earth Emperor.

　　When I was still intoxicated with the past, Amy's words suddenly interrupted my thoughts: "I really miss the third young master who would blush and apologize when he touched my breasts." "

　　Hey, Amy, from the ancient times. "Don't dig up the dirty things and talk about them!"

　　"The third young master is so ruthless, I'd rather give you my first kiss..."

　　"That's enough...that's enough!!"

　　Everyone was stunned for a moment, even Li Andao didn't know that I was with you. There was something going on between Amy and Lily. Lily stayed for a while and then smiled and said: "Hehehe... Master, did you also have a time of innocence? I really can't tell. Lily really wants to see it." "

　　Even Lily, you Are you all rebelling?"

　　The gloom just now subsided a little, and everyone started laughing. Even Laxi, who didn't know what was going on, was happy when she saw everyone happy.

　　"Zanlun, is the food in the Imperial City delicious?"

　　"You only know how to eat."

　　"Yeah... um..."

　　Anfei smiled and said, "Don't worry, the food in the Imperial City is world-famous, you will definitely like it, Laxi. ."

　　When Laxi was still about to speak, the speed of the carriage suddenly slowed down, and the sound of countless horse hooves sounded in front. We opened the curtain and found that there were more than 2,000 to 3,000 knights marching in different directions. Banner camped on a mountainside.

　　"Andre prepares his horse, the others are waiting here."

　　"Yes!" "

　　People do not seek fame and fame." When I rode my horse from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, nearly three thousand knights all got out of the way and dismounted. Kneel down to greet him. They are all close guards of the lords, the elite among the elite, but when they see me, a weak swordsman, they all respect me.

　　Using your brain is always more respected than using your hands.

　　Three thousand knights surrounded the mountain like an iron barrel, so I could pass without hindrance all the way. When I reached the plain at the top of the mountain, there were already ten men standing there waiting for me.

　　"Hello, Lord Baron."

　　"Hello everyone, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you okay?"

　　"My Lord Baron is kind."

　　Among the ten men, two are the most outstanding, one is a head taller than the others. With a bear-like figure and a strong man wearing an all-black military uniform, he is the lord of Caluc City, one of the three major cities in the north, Aihua. Viscount Naples. The other one was wearing white plain clothes, tall and thin, a sissy with a manly face and makeup. However, he was a famous wise general in the north, the lord of Deslu City, one of the three major cities - Libidu. Viscount Pougain.

　　Ha, don't underestimate this pair of "Black and White". Together with the late former Lord of Fairburn City, Viscount Charter, they are collectively known as the "Three Heroes of the North". They are heroes in the eyes of the northerners, and they are also very capable. Gou Xiong is a famous swordsman in the north, and Sissy is also a high-level magician. He is also proficient in attack and healing magic. They also have more than 20,000 elite cavalry under their command, and there are many masters as subordinates.

　　The remaining eight are lords from other small counties in the north. They are the bigger ones anyway, so I won't introduce them in detail. Based on my reputation, military strength and financial power in the north, although some of the ten of them have higher titles than me and some have more seniority than me, they all look to me.

　　The big bear came to me with his hem lowered. When I was shocked, he slapped me on the shoulder with a pair of bear claws. Ah, your grandma, although I know he is just passionate, it still hurts so much that it penetrates my heart and lungs.

　　"Good boy, if Ai Hua doesn't accept it, who else can you accept? Di Yili's 300,000-strong army, the Dark Elf's 200,000-strong army, and the Orc tribe's 200,000-strong army, all of them are under your control. Hahahaha. "Don't forget to take me with you next time you have such an exciting thing."

　　"And next time? You're kidding."

　　Libidu stepped forward and patted Ai Hua on the shoulder: "Ai Hua, we still have it. " Discussing a very important matter. Your Majesty, your Majesty has secretly met with us. What attitude and strategy do you think we should adopt when we return to the imperial capital this time? "

　　Good boy, reveal the secret meeting between Willy VI and them as soon as you come, so that you can tell me. It showed that the lords did not take the royal family seriously, and at the same time showed their loyalty.

　　"I want to hear your opinions first."

　　"Elibido believes that this trip to the Imperial Capital is very dangerous. After Horus defeated the Pirate Queen, his Blue Goose Army has been hiding near the Imperial Capital. In addition, two of the four princes The name has fallen to Horus. If there is a big war, a few thousand of us here will be useless, and even escape may be a problem."

　　"Libidu, when did you become so humorous? Will you listen to the royal family? "I, Libidu and Aihua laughed at the same time. Apparently they all agreed with me. In addition to the guards, there were other arrangements.

　　"Your Excellency, you are right. Aihua has secretly sent 10,000 cavalry to prepare for your father's food."

　　"Ha, Libidu is about the same. I have sent 10,000 cavalry to stay in the mountainous area on the northern border. It can protect us during the emergency. "Retreat completely."

　　"Hehehehe... We are just debriefing, not fighting. It is very expensive to use such a huge military force. I, a poor man, cannot afford it. So I only brought 300 guards and one magic master this time." The division is coming."

　　The ten lords looked at each other, and Aihua and Libidu said in surprise: "That's all?"

　　"That's what the Supreme Being is like. I also made an agreement with Prince William that he will leave a force of ten thousand people. Let me take command of the team."

　　Libidu is worthy of his name as a wise general. His mind and experience are by no means simple. He said thoughtfully: "No wonder Horus didn't dare to attack. It turns out that the red eagle army also sneaked into the imperial capital secretly. But you, Lord Baron, Be especially careful..."

　　I smiled slightly and looked at the scenery outside the plain and said, "I know that the moment Horus is waiting for is the moment to successfully assassinate me, and Willy VI is waiting for Horus's party. Take action. The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind it. I am the stupid cicada jumping around."

　　A smile appeared on Libido's lips, he stood next to me and touched my shoulder and said, "In other words, Our mission is to cause destruction, and it is best to disrupt all the deployments of Horus."

　　I shook his hand and said with a smile, "You are good, don't mess with me. In terms of pure military strength, the best at the moment. The strongest one is still the royal family, but the biggest advantage of Horus is that he is in the dark, and the royal family is in the light. That's why Willy VI let me go, let us light fire everywhere, and let him take care of the little thieves we forced out.

　　" Hua scratched his head and said, "Why don't you have a head-on confrontation with them? That would be boring."

　　I stared at him and then said angrily, "A head-on confrontation? Don't even think about it! The Blue Yan Army and the broken and wet troops have so much strength. Between 120,000 and 150,000 people, we are barely enough to serve as cheerleaders. We should leave immediately after setting the fire, otherwise we will be in trouble if any of them catches us."
